NAME COMMITTEE
FOR TECH DRIVE
Mayes, Adams, Paulk, Newcom-
er, Dorminy, Dickey, Parrot
w AS NAMED TODAY
Will Head $5,0oo,OOO Industrial
Campaign in Ben Hill

ATLANTA, April 23.-The execu.
tive committee of the Greater Geor.
gla Tech campaign in Ben Hill Coun-
ty was named at the State headquar-
tiers here today, as follows:
Mr.. J. H. Mayes, County Chairman
OF Ben Hill County, Messrs. w. A.
Adams, S. Dorminy, Lon Dickey, W.
L. Paulk, Chas. A. Newcomer, and
J. A. Parrot.
Practically every community in the
state now is thoroughly organized,
and the drive toward this enormous
ly important goal-$5,000,000 to be
invested i'll the great state technical
school, and through it for the indus
trial future of Georgia-has started
under the most advantageous condi-
tons. From all the state come mes
sages from cities and counties and
communities announcing their accept
ances of the quota set them; and the
campaign, which began April 20, is
splendldly under way, according to
reports from headquarters.
Experienced observers, versed in
Judging political campaigns and state
wide movements of every sort, have
declared that no other movement in
the history of the State has received
such a wide endorsement among the
people generally as the Greater Tech
Movement. The principle involved,
they say. is an "open and shut prop
osition"-that Georgia cannot achieve
anything like its share of prosperity
until the industrial side of its develop
ment is what it should be, and that
until the State Engineering School is
equipped to give the service to indus
tries of their state and the Georgia
School of Technology is enabled to
give Georgia boys the same training
that boys of other states are receiv-
ing, Georgia industries can never be
properly developed.
Some criticism has been directed at
the policy which has been adopted
by the campaign leaders of setting
forth the bare facts, unpleasant as
they may be, of lack of development
and the missed opportunity every
where in Georgia For instance, it
has been brought to light that Geor-
gia ranks forty third educationally
among the States; that Georgia man
ufactures less than one per cent OF
the manufactured products of the
United States; although there is prob
ably not another area in the world
of the same size which is richer in
natural resources. In answer to crit
les Victor Allen of Buford, Ga, who
is head of the campaign declared:
The trouble with Georgia now is
that we are inclined to cover I'D our
detects and dwell lovingly on our
good points What we need to do
is to dwell earnestly on our defects
and forget for the time being our
good points. Mr.. Allen pointed out
that unless the unpleasant facts which
constitute bad advertising" are given
the proper attention they will never
be corrected.
Every indication is that the cam
paign for Tech, not only in this Coun-
ty, but throughout the State, will be
success.

vi AA419SNk M with 1924,
WAA AM eighty five
S/ years before
Henry Hud-
sons voyage In his little boat,
the Half Moon, up the river
which now bears his name. For
at that early date an Italian
navigator, Verrazano, exploring
for France, sailed into New
York bay. This first visit to
New York made little stir and
was soon forgotten, and it was
Hudson's rediscovery which
tempted the Dutch to send over
colonists and obtain for the
Dutch West India company a
monopoly Of the Dutch fur trade
in America. The new colony
which was started in 1923 called
its territory New Netherlands,
after its mother country, and
their principal city New Amster-
dam. 1t is interesting to reflect
that Manhattan island, which Is
now New York city, was pur-
chased from the Indians for S24
worth of beads and ribbons,
Even In its earliest days the set
Element on Manhattan Island
was cosmopolitan. In 1913 it is
reported that eighteen different
languages were spoken there.
In 1864 the English captured
New Netherlands, and King
Charles II presented the colony
to his brother, the duke of York,
who was later King James ii,
and its name was then changed
to New York.
New York played a leading
part in the formation of the
United States. 1t was Alexan-
der Hamilton who was New
York's representative in framing
the Constitution and it was New
York city which was selected as
the first capital of the new
Union, where Washington was
inaugurated the first president.
Ever since the Empire state, as
New York is sometimes called,
Las held the deciding voice in
presidential elections. Though
its size is only 49,2O4 square
miles, not quite half way in the
list of states according to area,
Its great population gives New
York forty-five presidential cleo
tors, the largest number of any
of the states.

Rev. p. X. Edwards. presiding as
chairman called upon Il. c. Boyle a
member OF the city council to reply
for the city.
Mr.. Boyle said that 81 was evident
that Nfr. Black Ind given the matter
extensive study and that he was sure
that the present city council or any
other city council would be glad to
give the necessary cooperation.
He explained that he was opposed
TO frightening the parking time in the
business district because many people
were using the streets merely for the
purpose OF storing their cars.
He also said that he didn't think Il
would be feasible TO open wolcott and

Traffic problems are not peculiar
to Casper" said Mr.. Black in opening
the discussion. Chambers OF com
msrce. police, street and public safety
! departments In all sections OF tbs
country are daily seeking the benefit
and experience of others.
'In arriving at an equitable traffic
regulation system three essential
things must be taken into considera-
tIon. Safety Of life and limb. ron
vsnience for the most people and the
width Of streets and amount OF traf-
fic.
"casper's traffic regulations at pres
emit in general these essentials.
The city law requires that a certain
space around fire plugs and from
street intersections should be left IN
cant. The law requires that machines
park at n IS degree angle. Parking
in the restricted district which in
cludes from Midwest Avenue 10 A
street on Center and from David to
Durbin on Second street Is limited TO
30 minutes.
The regulations require that the
ace for certain areas in front OF
theaters be left open during the hours

iercs TO the management and a safety
for the guests OF the house.
Casper differs from other cities but
in essential respects its traffic regu-
lstions are as broad and conform close
iy 10 those OF all other well regulated
cities of like size"
Mr.. Black then compared the traffic
laws OF Great Falls. and Billings.
Mont. Sheridan and Cheyenne. wyo-l
hing IND Denver. Colo. showing where
regulations in force in each OF these
cities in some respects might assist
Casper.
In discussing the parallel parking
system In which cars are parked par
allel to the curb. Mr.. Black said his
opinion vas that too much space WA
wanted in this way.
He stated a observation OF many
people lead TO the belief that the 30
minute parking limit in Casper was
too short n time. He condemned tho
irregularity OF law enforcement on
traffic rules saying that these laws
should be uniformly enforced at all
times. thus tending to eliminate en-.
tirely traffic violations.
Another criticism OF the present
Casper law as announced by Mr..
Black is that the siarking law denies
the use Of the streets to persons whose
place Of business abutt. He also
charged that heretofore taxts were
