BEFORE GOING home last eve
ming 1 stopped at the Barker Bakery
and got the most delicious little cake.
It is a treat to be able to buy real
French pastry right here in our own
town. The little cakes are light and
rich and the butter icing not only
melts in your mouth, but is very ar
tistically done. People may rave
about homemade cake, but this Bar
ker Bakery French pastry is compe-
tition for the best that I have ever
tasted. The top of the cakes are
the sides are rolled in chopped pc
cans. These little cakes would be
credit to any hostess and will be made
to order for parties.
Besides the French pastry,
brought home some chocolate maca-
ons-mmh-Maybe you've liked
macaroons before, but you ought to
taste the fresh chocolate ones made
at the Barker Bakery.

EUROPECANBUY
LITTLE COTTON
So SAYS Burleson, Until
Countries Check
Money Presses

BERLIN, July 16.-(By Associat
ed Press IA. S. Burleson, former
United States postmaster gbneral,
who has returned to Berlin after in
vestigating the commercial, industrial
and financial conditions of Poland,
Austria and Czecho-Slovakia, is of
the opinion that there is little hope
of selling Europe large quantities of
cotton and other raw materials I'M
til Germany and other countries of
Central Europe balance their bud
gets and make definite arrangements
to discontinue the issuance of paper
money and to retire that currency
until its volume is only three times
that of their gold reserves.
Il can't see any indication that the
statesmen of Central Europe are fac
ing their problems frankly and try
ing to formulate plans which get at
the fundamental problems and might
insure the resumption of the indus
tries and the renewal of the export
trade, said Mr.. Burleson. at is not
reasonable to talk about foreign
loans to Central Europe as long as
printing presses continue to
pour out paper money without any
gold guarantee or any prospect that
it will be retired.
Germany is in far better condi-
ton than the other countries of Cen
trail Europe. and l personally believe
Germany would improve its exchange
situation very speedily if it would
stop issuing paper money and levy a
tax over period of 10 years to
guarantee its retirement of and the
creation of larger gold reserve.
Foreign bankers want to see definite
plans before they take chance on
the countries of Central Europe"

sembly. Despite Com
mIttee.

ATLANTA, July 15.-That the
waterpower bills, sponsored by the
Municipal League of Georgia, will be
pressed in both branches of the gen
eral assembly, despite the fact that
the house committee on constitutional
amendments has adversely reported
both measures, is the statement made
by Marion Jackson, attorney for the
league, and one of its most active
members. These two measures, in
PRODUCED simultaneously in both
houses, would permit municipalities
to construct, acquire and operate by
dro-electrlc power plants, issuing
bonds OF not more than per cent of
their tax valuations.
The house committee on constitu-
tlonal amendments acted on the bills
Wednesday afternoon at a hearing
during the course of which several
speakers appeared on both sides. The
vote of the committee was not an
nounced, as the adverse action was
taken in executive session.
The opening argument before the
committee was made by Mr. Jackson,
who pointed out that ITO municipali-
ties in Georgia have asked for the
enactment of the Municipal League
bills. He declared that in the Prov
ince of Ontario. Canada, the munich
pally-owned and operated hydro-elec-
trio plants have wrought a revolution
in economic affairs and have done
much to develop the rural as we'll as
the urban sections.
Judge w. A. Covington, of Moul-
trie, made the point that the NUM-
cipal League bills cannot be consid-
cred as bolshevistic," since they are
based on the principle that enables
the state of Georgia to own the West
ern and Atlantic railroad.
Discussing the objection that the
state constitution of 1877 prohibits
the issuance of municipal bonds to
| more than 5 per cent of tax valuation,
Judge Covington declared that this
limitation was imposed at time
when carpet baggers from the north,
together with negro legislators then
in power in Georgia, had impoverish-
ed the state by prodigal expenditure
of state and municipal funds This
| danger is now eliminated, said
Judge Covington
i Sneaking against the bills, Preston
Arkwright, of the Georgia Railway
and Power Co., discussed the techni-
cal difficulties in the way of munich
pal ownership of public utilities and
declared that the Ontario system af-
fords results inferior to those obtain
ed under private ownership in Geor-
gia.
