GEORGIA CLUB WOMEN
BEHIND HIGHWAY BONDS

ATLANTA, March THE wo-
men of the state are squarely behind
the proposed $4,000, 100000 road
bond issue, according to Mrs. j. E.
Hays, president of the State Fedora
ton of Women's clubs, who declares
that good roads are among the fun
damentaals for which club women
have been working all these years.
70 women of the state have been
studying these problems for years."
said Mrs. Hays, in an interview given
here last week, "and now that our eff
forts are beginning to bear fruit,
we are delighted. In my opinion, no
better piece of legislation proposed in
Georgia within my day, will be of
such widespread benefit to the whole
state, and hope every woman in the
state federation will work tirelessly
and eeaselessly for the road bonds.

GEORGIA PLANS
FORD MEETING
Mayors From Every Town And
Business Leaders Invited To
Atlanta Next Sunday

ATLANTA, March T.. = A mass
meeting of citizens of Atlanta will
be held next Sunday afternoon at the
city auditorium to take steps to put
Atlanta solidly behind Henry Ford in
his efforts to obtain lease on the
government properties at Muscle
Shoals. 49,
Mayors from every town in Geor-
gia, as well as representative bust
ness men will be invited to attend the
meeting, and plans will be formulated
to hold monster statewide mass
meeting here some time later in the
month, to crystalline sentiment
throughout the state to back up Ford
in his efforts.
Ex-Governor Emmett O'Neal, of
Alabama, who swayed thousands in
Montgomery by his powerful address
On the subject will be the principal
speaker, while both Georgia senators
and a number of congressman will be
asked to attend and to speak.
G. W. Mcclure, who is one of the
leaders in the movement, declared
that Georgia would receive more
benefit from the property than could
be estimated at this time, if Ford
obtains the lease. He said that the
only way in which the Detroit manu-
facturer would win out was for peo-
pie throughout the country to show
congress that they were thoroughly
behind Mr.. Ford and wanted him to
have the plant.
Big business and big finance are
putting the screws on congress to
force them to sidetrack Mr.. Ford,
and we must all work together to
show congress that the people of this
country want Ford, and nobody else
but Ford to have the lease" Mr.. Nc
Clure said.
