Business Is Moving
On Steady Basis
Head of South's Largest Realty Com
pany Defines Pace of Industry on
First Laps of Year

ATLANTA, Feb. 14-Pace at which
industry is moving at the present time
is slightly less impressive than it was
year ago. But it must be accepted
that friction is far less this year than
last and as result of this fact the
1924 business machine is better fitted
to stand up under the wear and tear
of the years long drive.
This is the opinion of Forrest Adair,
ST., President of the Adair Realty and
Trust Company of Atlanta, and prob
ably one Of the best informed men on
business conditions in the South.
The fundamental working parts
which proved so successful last year
are still in good order, Mr.. Adair
says. In other words, those controll-
ing factors which made 1923 record
Year have been carried over into 1924
Undoubtedly, as Mr.. Adair shows, one
of the biggest single factors has been
the universal conservatism among
those charged with the responsibility
of carrying on business.
The large offices of the Adair COM
pany, which occupy the southwest cor
ner of the ground floor of one OF
Atlanta's largest skyscrapers, and
which for sometime has been looked
upon as the largest realty office of
the South, if not in the country, has re
Gently found it necessary to further
enlarge the big office by the addition
of large space that was formerly
held by another company. The in
crease in the size of the office, from
the pioneer establishment opened a
half century ago by Colonel George
w. Adair, father OF Forrest Adair,
present head of the big firm, is said to
be proportionate with the increase in
the business of the nationally known
concern.
The Atlanta company maintains con
nections in practically all the large cit
les of the United States and several
in Canada, it is stated

McAdoo Goes On
Witness Stand
Would Never Have Been Drawn Into
Investigation Had Name Not Been
Mentioned, Declare McAdoo. Act
ed Upon Good Faith

Washington, Feb. 12-The atmos-
phere. was surcharged to a political
tension when William G. McAdoo fac
ed the senate oil committee today
and explained his connections with
the Doheny interests. At the very out
set he read prepared statement
charging that had he not been prom
inentlymentioned in connection with
high office his name would never
have been brought into the inquiry
He declared he acted in good faith in
accepting a retainers' fee as coun-
sci of Doheny after he left the cabi-
net and i'll long cross examination
reasserted forcibly his assertions that
the attack was made on him purely
Tor political reasons, and said the mat
ter is prevalent to inquiry. Mr. Nc
Adoo said he severed his professional
relations with Doheny the day after
he came before the oil committee. He
said he only advised him in connec.
ton with his Mexican affairs.

DISASTROUS
FIRE IN Triton
LAST SUNDAY
Local Department Responds to Call;
Bad Bridges Cause Many Slow
Ups In Run

On last Sunday afternoon at | rs an
urgent call came from the authorities
'of Titton, stating that disastrous
fire was raging i'll the business section
and requested that the local depart
ment come and aid them. Chief vii
kerson answered the phone and told
them I'VE are coming"
Some little preparations were neces-
sary before the trip could be under
taken, and three firemen, who at that
time were at dinner, had to be round
ed up and brought to the station to
give protection to the town while the
other truck crew, consisting of Chief
Wilkerson, ]. P. Horne, Tally Wright
and two volunteers went to the aid OF
our sister city.
The truck left the station at 20 D.
M, arriving in Triton at 2:l5 making
the trip in SIS minutes Chief Wilker-
son, in speaking OF the trip, said, "the
run could have been made in less time
but great care was necessary in cross
ing bridges, as only few of those be-
tween Ocilla and the Tiff County line
are safe"
After arriving at Triton, the fire
was soon brought under control, there
being approximately $4,000 damage.
A good bit of this being water dam.
age to stores occupying adjoining builC
fings.
Our fire lads left Triton at $40 ar
irving back at the station at $40 max
ing the trip back in one hour anc
forty minutes.
They said they were mighty wei
pleased with the courtesy shown then
by the citizens of Triton and hope i
will not be necessary for Triton tt
call on outside help again for aid il
| fighting fire, but if it is, that they ar
ready to respond, as they have in tn
past.
This is the second time that Fitz
gerald has sent truck to the aid 0
Triton. A courtesy that Triton has al
SO shown to us at one time An
altho the truck never arrived, as
went thru bridge, yet we are non
the less grateful.

Peanut Growers
Association Securing
New Members

Albany, Ga, Feb. 13-Work of the
Georgia Peanut Growers Co-Opera-
tive association to secure new mem
bers both in the seventy-seven coun-
ties now served by the COOPERATIVE
Marketing Organization and in some
torty-five additional counties where
peanuts will become an important
money crop for the first time this
year is progressing nicely, according
to officials of the association at head
quarters office in Albany. 1t is neces-
sary, the official explained, for edhca-
t1onal work to be done first in coun-
ties where the association has not pre-
vlously operated, but, despite this pre-
limlnary work, the campaign has pro-
crossed far enough in a number of
counties for actually signing of con-
tracts to be rolling into headquarters.
Dodge county was notable example
of this kind last week.. contracts for
between 1900 and 1000 acres coming
in rom that county alone
On account of the limited personnel
of the Field Service Department of
the l'e&nut association, caused by the
policy of hclding operating expenses
at the lowest possible level, it will
probably be several weeks before some
of the counties in which membership
work will be done can be visited, John
H. Mock, Director of Field Service,
stated, but the campaign will be car
ried or everywhere with all possible
dispatch. In counties where the asso-
citation has not operated in the past,
Mr., Mock explained, it is necessary
to hold meetings, make public address
ses and do other work necessary to
presenting the idea and working plans
of COOPERATIVE Marketing.

is matter which Governor Clifford

nels; to discuss whether or not the
existing agencies working in that
general direction shall be asked to
consolidate in one general organiza-
ton or commission.
His idea is conveyed in a letter
which he has addressed to P. T. An
