Former Chief Justice
Fish Gets Court Chair
HeOccupied26 Years

Sentimental attachment for the
chair which he had occupied for
twentysix years as a member of the
supreme court of Georgia, caused
Judge William H. Fish, retiring chief
justice, to request the governor to
allow him to take the old chair and
replace it with a new one for his
successor, Judge Richard B. Russell.
Governor Hardwick Immediately
granted the request and the simple
ceremony was enacted Saturday
with only a few friends of Judge
Fish present. The chair was tenn
porarily placed in the office of JUS
tice James K. Hines.
Judge Fish has graced the SUI
preme court bench for twenty six
years, having first been sworn in in
1895. He was elected chief justice
in 1905 and has served with distinc-
ton in that capacity since that time.
Judge Fish plans to take the SEN
timental token with him to Macon to
place in his office when he assumes
his new duties as dean of the law
school of Mercer university.

Tallahassee Gasoline
Stations Closed Down
As Result of Tax Row

TALLAHASSEE Fla, Jan. T.
All the wholesale gasoline stations
in Tallahassee are closed as the re-
suit of an, attachment by Comptroll-
err Ernest Ames, who is trying to
collect penalties amounting to ap-
proximately $4,000 which was i'm
posed as the result of failing to pay
the one cent a gallon tax on gas
oline during the period from April
to August.
The act calling for the tax was
passed by the 1921 session of the
legislature and went to the courts
for a decision. The state supreme
court rendered an opinion which
declared the act to be void At thsi
time the oil companies stopped pay
ing the one cent tax, as they
thought the decision was final. A
rehearing in the case was granted,
however, and the court reversed its
former opinion, which made the act
valid and enforceable.

Personnel

Heads of departments are Sc
lected, each with view of his
fitness for the position, with no
personal, political, religious or
other considerations. Ability
alone counts, ability to render
the service for which the man
is selected. Arrangements are
made for financing, for storage,
for transportation and the work
of making market contacts is
taken up. Arrangements are
made for a method, and for
places of delivery of the prod
uct by the member, and the
members are instructed how,
when, and where to deliver
their product to the associa-
ton.
Expert graders sample and
grade the product as it is re-
ceived, anG an advance is made
to producer on receipt Of his
product This advance runs all
the way from 80 to 60 per cent
of the market value of the
product at delivery depending
upon the commodity handled,
its relatively perishable or non
perishable character, and the
amount of processing or other
expense that the association
must put upon the original
product before it is sold. The
funds to make the advance are
borrowed on warehouse receipts
representing the commodity in
storage, bills of lading, or other

Orderly Marketing

BY doing this this, the period
over which the sales are made
is heightened, so far as the
producer is concerned. Under
the old system of individual
dumping, the product was shOv-
ed into the hands of the private
distributors at the time of har-
vest, without regard to demand
or price, and they, in turn, dis
tributed the product over the
period of consumption, and there
by absorbed a large part of the
price paid by the consumer. Co.
operative marketing supplies the
mechanism for making this dis
tribution over the entire period
of consumption, through a dis
tributing system in the hands of
the producer, and thereby brings
back to him a larger share of
the consumer S dollar.
By careful grading, segregat-
ing into even running lots of the
same quality, co-operatives de-
liver a more satisfactory product
to the consumer, and by short
ening the distance between the
producer and the consumer, over
which the product must travel
on. it's way to market, the CO.
operative sales method often
materially reduces the average
price paid by the ultimate con-
sumner.
