These long distance dopesters who've

For there are two very popular
misconceptions that need correcting.

who labored under these particular

The general idea is that Jack

also that he'll outweigh Tommy Glib

more startling.
Dempsey's avoirdupois has been

Barge Line Depends
On u. S. Appropriation,
Engineer Declares

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 6.-The
only obstacle now in the way of sue
cess for the Mississippi river barge
line is the lack of an adequate chan
mel in the river at all seasons of the
year, Colonel T. c. Ashburn, of
Washington, chief of the inland wa
terways service of the war depart
ment, under whose auspices the fed
eral barge line is operating, told a
gathering Of business men from Mis-
sissippi valley points who met here
to discuss the lines operation.
"At the last session of congress, ="
said Colonel Ashburn, IAN appropri-
alton of $10,O0O,OOO a year for six
years was authorized for flood con-
troll in the Mississippi valley. Flood
control means channel improvement.
"This money has been authorized
bat before it is available it must be
voted by congress. So far there is
no provision in the budget for the
necessary funds for river work.
eff the Mississippi valley is inter
ested in the revival Of water trans
portation there is no work of greater
Importance before the valley inter-
ests today than to see that this ap-
preparation is made available"
Channel obstruction last year cost
the barge line more than $4,000

twelve GEORGIA
POSTOFF|CES GET
BETTER RANKING
Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
40S Evans Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Because
of increased postal receipts during
the past fiscal year the postoffice de-
partment Saturday ordered that 3S2
postmasters of the fourth class be
advanced to presidential appoint
ment grade. This number includ-
ing twelve in Georgia as follows:
Fort Screven, Garfield, Hines
vile, Irwinton, Kingston, Maxeys,
Pitts, Rockingham, Tallulah Fails,
Warthen, Yatesville and Young Har-
ris.
OF the Georgia offices five, namely;
Garfield, Maxeys, Pitts, Rockingham
and Tallulah Falls will pay $1,OOo
annually. Irwington, Yatesville ana
Kingston Will pay SLIGO; HlnesVllle
and Warthern $1,000; Fort ScreVeh
81 300 and Young Harris $l,4OO.
increases of rates, in small Offices
in sufficient amount to warrant an
advance to a higher grade, Is con-
sidered probably more the main rae,
tor and is an evidence OF genera
prosperity. 1t is the small town
rather than the large city which
prosperity reaches last, according TO
the view of postal officials.
The largest number of offices in
creased was in Pennsylvania where
twenty-four postmasters will get sal
airy raises
Texas was second with twenty
three; Illinois third with twenty, and
Alabama fourth with seventeen;
showing a fairly general distribution
over the various sections OF the
country.
On reports from fifty large indus
trial cities Postmaster General New
said Saturday that an average gain
of sos per cent in postal receipts
was recorded in September over re-
ceipts the same month year ago.
Savannah, Ga, was second on the
list with increased receipts of 1910
per cent. Shreveport, La, led with
an increase of 46.35 per cent.

INJUNCTION GIVEN
COOP ASSOCIATION
"A AGAINST GEORGIAN

The Georgia Cotton Growers Co
operative association has secured a
temporary injunction restraining j.
B. Roberts, Of Jefferson, from sell
ing his 1928 cotton crop outside the
association, it was announced Sat
urday by officials of the association.
The hearing of the petition of the
association to make the injunction
permanent has been set for October
Of, at Wirder. by Judge Lewis Rus
sell, of the Piedmont circuit.
In addition to asking for an in
junction to prevent Roberts from
selling his cotton outside the asso-
citation, the organization also
brought suit for three cents per
pound On fifty bales of the 1922 cot
ton crop that Roberts is alleged to
have sold outside the association.
The Roberts suit is one of several
suits that have been filed by the
association against alleged contract
violators and will be followed by
numerous other suits, officials or
the association stated. The organi-
cation is determined to have it's
members keep their contracts, it was
said.
Commenting on the Roberts case,
President J. E. ConWell, of the CO.
operative association, said:
1.-THE cooperative cotton market
ing association is a business corpor-
alton. The thousands of members
who are so. actively cooperating
are insisting that every contract
violator be sued for damages and
our board of directors have no OPP
ton except to file suits against such
VsuEtrors as rapidly as our investl-
cations can be completed"
"Within the past few months he
courts of Kentucky, North Carolina,
Oklahoma, Texas and Mississippi
have declared the cooperative laws,
as drawn by Aaron Sapiro and
passed by the above states, to be con-
stitutional. Further, in each in
stance where the membership con-
tracts of the cotton, rice, tobacco
and peanut co-operatives have been
tested out because of suits being
instituted against Violators, they
have been declared by the courts to
be valid.
1.-THE cotton cooperative is operat-
ing under the cooperative statutes Of
this state as drawn by Mr.. Sapiro,
and under a contract similar in all
essentials to that of the othr mar
keting associations for farm prod
uctS."

Headless Body Gives
Oriental Mystery Hint
To Pittsburg Police

PITTSBURG, Oct. with the
identification of the headless body
found Wednesday in bath house
along the Monongahela river, as that
of Charles CHUCK" McGregor, Il,
city detectives Saturday began at
tempting to unravel what they be-
lieved has the aspects of an Orienta!
mystery.
Admitting that they were without
the ser1blance of a clue, an effort
was being made to trace McGregor S
movements since he left ATTAINING,
Pa, last March, in search of a pos
sibie motive.
Difficulty was expected to be en-
countered because of what James
McGregor, the victims father, who
identified the body, termed his son S
rowing disposition" Inquiries will
first be made at Detroit, where NC.
Gregor was reported to have been To-
Gated about three months ago, but
detectives admitted that they lack
ed definite information as to his ad-
dress or acquaintance in that city.
While detectives declared that any
motive advanced at this stage OF the
investigation would be mere con-
juncture they were viewing favor
able the theory of "Oriental VEN
genance." They said they had learn
ed there is a tribal custom in Tur-
key, Syria and Arabia for male mem
bers of a family to swear vengeance
on any man for certain causes.
Whenever the marked man is
stripped before or after death and
the head severed, according to the
custom related by detectives. Then,
as mark of disrespect, the head is
buried in a shallow hole where it
can be found easily.

CREAMERY BUTTER
ENR|CHES GEORGIA
A MILLION YEARLY

ATHENS, Ga, Oct. 6.-Creamery
butter alone increased Georgia g
wealth over $1,O00,OO0 in the last
two years, DIR. M. P. Jarnigan, head
of the department OF animal hus-
bandry at the State College OF Agri-
culture announces.
DR.. Jarnigan declares the dairy
industry, with it's development OF
cheese making and ice cream produc'
ton, is becoming one of the state
chief money sources.
In 1921 the value of creamery but
ter produced in the state was less
than $4,000. In 1922 the value OF
the output of creameries jumped to
S75O,O00, and in 1928 it will be about
81, SOC, 900, according to DR.. Jarna-
gin who is of the opinion that the
industry will grow proportionateIy
for sometime.
"There is no danger Of an over
production in any phase of the dairy
industry" he said, because we are
importing into the state each year
many times as much as we are pro-
ducing. Too, dairying gives a direct
cash return, and the farmer has
twenty-four pay days year, with
a greater assurance Of the checks
arriving than with cotton.
1.-THE farmers who patronlze the
cheese factories and creameries are
getting good returns" continued DR..
Jarnagin, land find that the income
from them is a godo supplement to
other crops. At the present time
G9orgia-made cheese is placed on
the market at the price of Wiscon'
sin cheese plus the freight from
that state here One cheese factory
is paying its patrons at the rate of
f1fty-two cents per pound for butter
fat, which is from seven to nine
cents above the Chicago standard.
"There are now sixteen creameries
in the northern half of the state,
and this is enough. With the rail-
roads carrying cream as baggage,
which is lower than freight rates,
there is a creamery in reach of every
farmer now. If more factories are
built it will cause competition among
them, but will not create larger
market for the output"
DR.. Jarnagin believes there is
plenty of room for expansion of the
cheese manufacturing industry mas
much as the initial cost is not more
than $500. supported by less than
hundred cows; whereas the invest
ment in a creamery is about $4,000,
requiring about five hundred cows.
He stated that there was a posi-
bility Of a cheese factory every six
miles III north Georgia.
The value of home-raised feeds
was strongly emphasized by DR..
Jarnagin, stating that ninety per
cent of the failures in the dairy in
dustry were caused by farmers not
raising sufficient feed to maintain

COOLIDGE DISCUSSES
MARKETING POOLS
WITH FARM LEADERS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Organi-
cation of cooperative marketing as
sociations, selected by the admins
tration as one means by which the
federal government might assist
farmers and livestock growers, was
discussed by President Coolidge to-
dav with former Senator Kellogg,
Republican, of Minnesota, and
Dwight B. Heard, of Phoenix, Ariz.,
president of the Arizona Cooperative
association.
Mr.. Heard reported to the presi-
dent on conditions in the southwest
among farmers and livestock men
and recommended that the govern
ment encourage cooperative market
ing as a means of assisting those
interests. He also said a reduction in
freight rates in the inter-mountain
territory would be of substantial
benefit.
Mr.. kellogg talked with the presi-
dent about cooperative organiza-
tons in a general way and made
arrangements for a further confer
ence on the same subject. He is the
author of the present cooperative
marketing act.
