ALBANY ENCOURAGING
GROWING OF PEACHES

ALBANY, May 2O.-"Albany,
Ca, long the acknowledged Worlds
Pecan Center may in future years
become the nucleus of the peach
growing industry"
Such, in effect, is the opinion Of
leading peach men and others in
position to know in this section.
Orchards around Albany are rap
idly producing more and more CT
the luscious fruit which has made
Georgia famous, and it is entirely
within the bounds of possibility
that in years to come Albany will
be one of the largest, if not the
largest peach distributing points in
the state.
"The peach belt is moving south,
states J, Irwin Davis, county agent
of Dougherty county, and he con-
siders it very likely that the peach
industry may some day rival the
pecan industry in prominence in
Albany.

HARDVICK SEES KHAN
AS NATIONAL ISSUE
Former Governor Says Hard
Political Fight Lies Ahead in
Georgia This Year

ATLANTA, May 20.-Forner
Governor Thomas w. Hardwick.
who has just returned to Atlanta
after brief illness, expresses the
belief, from correspondence he has
had and general size-up Of poll
teal conditions, that the State il
not going to escape a, political con-
test this year Rather he is Of the
BELIEF that announcements will be
made for the principal officers, anG
a short intensive campaign will be
carried on. He thinks, he says,
there is a lull at the present time
because Of a desire to hold things
generally in allegiance until after
the New York National Democratic
convention, where issues are going
to be drawn that viii bear directly
on affairs in this and other states ;
particularly in Georgia.
The former governor expresses
the belief that a general political
conference will come some an
nouncements, almost certainly a
candidacy for the United States
Senate and one for governor.
The Ku Klux Khan issue, he says,
is bound to be the outstandinS
early feature Of the New York con-
veption, and on that floor the ques-
ton Is going to be brought out to
a finish insofar as National Demo.
cratic politics is concerned, one way
or the other. From that it will
then be extended into certain states,
and particularly into this state.
where it will be made the issue this
Summer. The fact that the KlaG
has become a national political is
sue, the former governor says, is
found in the present determination
which is being thrown by certain Of
the Eastern states behind the car
dldacy of Governor AL Smith. and
viii be reason for an insistent move
ment in the National convention
for Smith because behind him the
issue could and would be made a
direct and straight-cut one over the
nation.
In Georgia. he says, there is a
strong disposition to wait until af-
Ter the National Democratic conven
ton has acted, and formulate plans

Fate Leads Boy To Mother He

Mystery, Action, the Unexpect-

Howard Mcconnell
WAS KIDNAPPED BY DAD
Coincidence Brings Long-Sep-
arated Mother and Son To-
gether At Lyons, Mass.
By HAROLD MATsON

LYNN. Mass, May IA son,
90, has just met his mother Tor the
first time since he has been out OF
swadding clothes.
He comes to her, after II years,
at a time when she needs MIN most
She is poor. Her little farm in
Maine is heavilp mortgaged. She
is sickly.
"And / was so afraid l would be
just 2 stranger to 3ou,' The son told
his mother. Il am happy to have
found you, and | am happier that
can be a real son to you"
Howard McConnell's story is ono
Of strange complicationa-the sort
one finds in the movies. Mystery,
action, the unexpected, and the
happy ending.
When he was three years old his
father kidnapped him from his
mother, They had agreed to sep
arate, but neither couli agree TO
give up the boy. Police the motn-
er's relatives and friends We're ua-
able to find Howard after the Kid-
MAPPING.
His father had taken him toNorth
Handley, Quebec, and there he was
brought up, believing that his aunt
was his true mother.
1t was not until Howard was II
that he learned the truth
His mother" was i'll. One after
noon on his way home from school
a relative hurried to meet him. His
mother" was dying. The doctor
had said it was but matter of min
utes.
Howard raced home. In the sick
room the woman lying on the bed
beckoned to him, and drew his head
down close to her mouth that hc
would be sure to hear her whisper
Il am not your mother" sh(
gasped-but she could tell no more
Death had interviewed.
1T was almost like suffering thC
loss twice." Mcconnell tells of his
tragedy. 7 had loved and worship
ped her as my own mother-at tn,
time I,almost wished she had not
told the truth"
| The shock, with its ante-climax
was almost more than the boy coul,
bear. Running away from hi.
home he set out to find his rea
mother. All he had as means o.
Identification was a picture Of him
self when he was a baby, a picture
mis- mother might also have.
For year he searched through
the eastern states. Discouraged
/ desperate he joined the navy Wher
ever he went he continued his hunt
But it was not until arly this
month that he came across a tang
bile clue as to the whereabouts Of
his mother.
Mcconnell had left the navy anC
was but two weeks in the army
stationed at Fort Slocum, New Yorl
By chance he met a relative of hi
mother. On a leave of absence hi
came to Lynn.
But by a similarly peculiar coin
eidence, Mrs. Marian Mcconnell
Mason Of Wellington, Me-, has
come to Lynn. She was i'll an,
friends here We're caring for her.
Mother and son met, brought to
gether by George w. Kitchell, tn,
boys grandfather.
And now action is being taker
to have the son released from tn,
army, that he may support tn,
mother whom he has just met 70
the first time.
