HUDSON EXPECTING
FREEDOM SOME DAY

ALBANY, Ca, Aug. 24.-"I never
expected to be hanged; I knew, and
God knew, I was innocent of killing
them little boys, and I knew God
would never let me die for a crime
had never committed"
With these words, Glen M. Hud.
son, convicted of the murder of his
two little. stepsons, Robert and Isiah
Temple, ten and four years old, at
their humble farm home two
miles south of Albany, on July r.
1921, expressed his feelings regard.
ing his communication Of sentence to
life Imprisonment.
II appreciate the governors saw
ing my life," said Hudson, when in.
terviewed in the Dougherty county
Jail. "a fellow couldn't help but ap.
preciate being saved from the gal
lows. But knew I'd never hang.
And when I go to serve my life SEN
tence, will have the same faith in
God had before. I knew He would
not let me hang, because I was limo
cent. And know He will set me
free some day when my innocence is
proven. know that time will
come"
Hudson, who is a man of few
words, had nothing more to say
about his change of sentence, but
he had several things to say about
his treatment in the Dougherty coun'
ty jail, his health and other topics.
II have been treated as fine as q
fellow could expect to be treated IN
place like this" he said. "NTr.
benson here (referring to Deputy
Sheriff Aaron benson, who accom-
panied the newspaper man on ais
visit to Hudson), has been mighty
good to me. So has Sheriff Tarver
They treated. me as well as could
expect"
In return, Deputy benson stated
that Hudson had been a model pris.
oner during his entire confinement
in the local Jail. eff all prisoners
were like him." said Deputy Den.
son, 1--WE would never have any trou
BILE. He never utters a word Of com.
plant, and I would not be afraid OF
his leaving if were to turn him out
today"
Hudson is in much better health
now than when he was first made a
prisoner in this noted case. He had
been suffering from chills and fever
he said today, and had been in poor
health for about a year before the
killing OF his stepsons occurred
Since he has been in Jail he has
gained abouty twenty-five pounds.
II have never worried much," he
said to his interviewer, land guess
that's one reason why have gain
ed in weight. I knew it would all
come out right in the end"
During his incarceration Hudson
has been "a frequent reader of the
Bible. Especially just before his
trial was he 20 be seen at almost
all times reading the Book. Since
then he has not read it quite sc
much, Deputy benson says, but has
not entirely forsaken it. ST believe
he said, that what the Bible says
is true, that if you ask for thing
and believe that you will get it, il
will be given unto YOU" Just what
scriptural quotation he interpreted
in that manner the interviewer was
unable to discover, but he seemed tc
place much dependence in some
promise in the Bible which meant
something like that to his untutored
mind.
His final word was to reiterate his
faith in ultimate eXoneration of the
awful charge against him, and his
belief that the real murderer Of the
little boys would some day be ap-
pretended.

Fitzgerald Merchants
Report Trade Increase

FITZGERALD, Ga, Aug. 24.-Lo-
cal merchants are reporting a grad
ually increasing business for the
past three weeks, due to the inn
proved condition of the farmers. The
cotton crop is being gathered, and
a good price is being received, both
for cotton and cotton seed. Most OF
the cotton is being sold as soon as
received at the warehouses. Mem.
bers of the Georgia Cotton corpora
ton, who have joined the cotton
pool, are delivering their cotton as
per contract, and are receiving an
advance of IL cents per pound.
1t is generally believed that this
collective selling Of the cotton crop
will help secure better prices for
the non-members as well as for the
members Of the association. In that
respect the organization will affect
the cotton growers very much as
organized labor affects the wages of
the non Orga njZed men

ASHEVILLE, N. c., Aug. "a
Commenting upon conditions at
Spencer, where state troops were
withdrawn recently from guard duty
about the shops of the Southern rail
way to their camp in the vicinity,
Governor Morrison said upon his ar
rival from Charlotte last night that
"the protest against the presence of
troops seems to be an outrageous in
suit to organized government, but it
will be best for all hands to wait
for the full facts before making final
judgment"
A total Of 500 troops were sent to
Spencer and Salisbury, three miles
from there, last week and went into
camp. Later when placed on guard
about the shops, members of the
brotherhoods protested and refused
to man trains, with the result that
traffic was deranged,

Home for Mental
Detectives to Close
Unless. State Assists

AUGUSTA, Ga, Aug. 24.-Declar-
ing that the Georgia home for men
tai detectives, this county. will be
closed on January 1 unless the state
comes to it's assistance, DR.. George
N. Preston, superintendent Of the
institution, left here last night for
Atlanta to confer with Governor
uardwick about the matter.
The governor yesterday vetoed an
appropriation Of 100000 for the home
because the measure had been i'm
properly drawn.
DR.. Preston says the institution
is virtually without funds now and
can hardly run longer than January
l. He says thirty-four pupils at the
school would have to be returned to
their homes, while eleven Of the
children there are homeless and the
disposition Of them would prove a
real problem.
It was pointed out by DR.. Preston
that if this home is abandoned,
Georgia will be one fthree states
in the union that does not provide
for it's feeble-minded children.
The home has been in operation
for more than a year, and the farm
surrounding it has been developed
to a point where practically all OF
the food crops needed can be raised.

are many lakes on the headlands and
islands traversed by the inside pass
age between Seattle and Skagway
that do not appear on any map.
During the New York-Nome flight
made by Army aviators. lakes were
frequently sighted which could not
be found on the latest and most au-
thentic maps of the territory. Tales
of unknown water bodies are con-
stantly being brought in by trap
pers and prospectors. Less than a
year ago a lake 4 IL miles long and
IL mile wide was discovered at the
head of Short Bay. This lake has
over 1000 acres of surface area and
is less than 1 IA miles from tide
water, yet because of the surround
ing country's rough topography has
remained unknown and unnamed.
Recognizing that many other of
these lost lakes" may be sources of
valuable water power, the Forest
Service has laid plans to map this
no-man's land of the north by means
OF aerial photographs. A few days
flight, 1t is said. will be sufficient to
cover the area with a degree of ac-
curacy that would require many
years and great expense to accom-
plish by ordinary methods.
The work. which has been APP
proved by the Federal Power Com
mission. will be done by seaplane,
flying from Ketchikan as a base.
