T At the earlier, meetings in some
sectionA particularly throughout the
corn belt and where diversified farm
ing IS not practiced to a great extent,
the retailers were not overly optiinis-
tic, in fact were inclined to be pessl-
mistic; but at later meetings in the
same districts the lumbermen have
shown increasing optimism. 1t is
becoming evident that in strictly lu-
lai districts. where higher prices now
are obtained for farm products there
are: going to, be heavier purchases of
lumber and other materials than mar

As matter of fact, orders, produc-

some tendency to advances. Some

:. The year has been: in some ways
one Of the most remarkable in con-
sressional annals. Its, most notable
development both, legislatively and
politically, was the emergence lot the
agricultural bloc in house and senate
as an entity. The influence Of this
bipartisan group of representatives
and senators, speaking and acting for
the country'ss farmers, has been felt
not only in purely agricultural legis-
lstion, but along general lines as well.
The bloc stands today as the mcst
formidable "third party" menace TO
the two major parties, and as the most
effective coalition of republicans and
democrats in congressional history. <

GRAND JURY PROBE
OF reign OF TERROR
IS ASKED BY JUDGE
preston News service)

WINDER, Ga. Oct. 13-Declaring
that five white men and ten Negroes
have been the victims of alleged out
raegous assaults of a powerful sinis-
ter influence in Barrow county during
the last few months, Judge Blanton
Fortson of Superior Court called on
the grand jury last Thursday morn
ing to investigate the reign of terror
which he charged is rampant through
out the county.
''Who is doing this?" Judge Fortson
asked, referring to the alleged out
RACES. at is done by an organized
band who have deliberately sought to
create reign of terror, or was it start
ed by men with more or less worthy
objects, who undertook to arrogate un-
to themselves the functions of govern
ment and have allowed the situation
to get beyond their control? Is it be-
ing done by men who still believe they
can usurp the functions of the
courts?'
The jurist said that men who
thought that they could serenely AFRO
gate to themselves the administration
of punishment were lacking in knowl
edge of history or the understanding
of human nature.
Law and order must be restored at
all costs. Citizens of Barrow county
must take steps to remove this blight
of hoodlunism sweeping over the
county. I call upon the liberty-loving
selfTespecting and lawtabiding citi-
zenry to help clear the good name OF
the county from this curse" he de
clared.
