Every one knows that the farmer,
who is least often able to bear it, went
through the most drastic defation.
Considered as whole, his position
has steadily improved since 1921.
do not mean that land values or prices
have reached their former level. That
was not to be expected.
Sees Farms Profit.
"But | do mean that, generally
speaking, the present business of farm
ing as whole is beginning to be
profitable. OF course there are excep-
tons to be made of localities, individ-
uals and crops Some people would
grow poor on a mountain OF gold,
while others would make good Nv
ing on d rock We can not bend our
course to meet the exceptions. We
must treat agriculture as a whole, and
If, as a whole, it can be placed in a
prosperous condition the exceptions
will tend to eliminate themselves"
But federal price-hxing, he continu-
ed, will not do the work
"The government price is not al
ways h1gh price. OnIeSS we Tx Col :
responding prices for other commodi-
ties high fixed price for agriculture
would simply stimulate over-produc-
ton that would end in complete col
lapse.
Unfavorable conditions likewise
would accrue from any material re-
vision of the tariff, the president said.
The farmer gets perhaps his great
benefit from the high protective tariff
out of the assurance of home mar ket.
Coolidge paid high tribute te| the
farmers as the builders of the nation.
He asserted that they had established
the FIRST agricultural empire which
did not rest upon an oppressed peas
antry. 1t was stupendous achieve
ment."

Confederate Memorial Hall Plans
Are Outlined by Sculptor Lukenoan
Massive Work on Stone Mountain Will Contain Figure $50 Feet TAI
Oof Southern Generals Half Mile Over Face of Mountain the
Figures of Inantrymen and Cavalymen Will Be Chiseled

each tablet will be the shield OF a
Confederate state in heavy brass.
In the center of the memorial hall
will be a statute of a woman, SYM
bolic of Confederate women, hewn
from the rock of the mountain.
After the memorial hall has been
completed work will begin on chisel-
ing out figures of infantrymen, cayal-
rymen and artillerymen for half mile
over the face of the mountain. The
troops will be represented as just hav-
ing passed in review of the high COM
mand. Mr.. Lukeman said the ensem-
Bile should be completed at the. end
of ten years.
To Carve Other Figures.
Construction of the memorial hall
will begin Immediately after the main
group Of figures of Confederate Off
GERS has been chiseled out of the face
of the mountain. In the group will be
Jefferson Davis, president of the Con
federacy; Gen. Robert E. Lee, astrlde
his famous mount Traveller, and Gen.
"Stonewall" Jackson, mounted on
"Old Sorrell.
There will be figures of four other
generals to be selected by southern
historians and the figures OF two flag
bearers. The figures will be 153 feet
tall. These figures are expected to be
finished within two years, Mr.. Luke
man said.
Lagoon Planned.
The approach to the mountain will
be bv series of avenues and steps
$50 feet long. There will be lagoon
$50 by Us feet. At the end OF the
lagoon will be thirteen steps, COM
memorating the thirteen Confederate
states, approaching a bronze figure OF
the unknown Confederate Soldier" "
This will be the only bronze statue in
the group.
Leading to the entrance of the me-
mortal hall to be cut out OF the noun
tain side will be forty-eight steps me-
morializing the states of the union.
Six monolith columns will be cut from
the SOLID rock of the mountain. Each
will be forty-one feet tall and seven
and a half feet in diameter.
Seven Languages to Be Used.
Over the entrance will be an en-
ablature. The inscription, tribute to
Confederate soldiers and sailors, will
be in English, French, German, Latin,
Greek, Sanskrit and Chinese.
This is a matter of precautlon," Mr..
Lukeman explained mo matter what
happens to this country within the
next thousand years the mountain al
ways will remain.
I'VE can't tell what language will
be used here in future generations.
Therefore, we are using many Ian
guages to assist those OF ages to come
in tracing back and in helping them
to know the reasons for the memo
rial"
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1925-12-15

Plans for a massive hall of remem-
brance, supplementary to the Stone
Mountain Confederate memorial, in
process of construction in Georgia,
were outlined by Augustus Lukeman,
the sculptor in charge of the work.
Mr.. Lukeman, who is in Baltimore
as the guest Of Louis Rosenthal,
Baltimore sculptor, not only modelled
the colossal figures of Confederate
heroes who will parade in bas relief
across the mountain side, but also de
signed the hall and its environs. He
was entertained at the Charcoal club
as the guest of Augustine J. Ryan,
director Of the Maryland institute and
a member Of the park board, says the
Baltimore Sun.
Will Be Semi Circle.
The memorial hall, semi-circle in
shape, will be so feet high, so feet
deep and 100 feet wide. On the inte-
rior wall will be thirteen columns,
thirty feet high, of solid rock, each
representing a Confederate state.
These columns will be of the lone
order. with bases and capitals in gold.
Between the columns will be tablets
eight by twenty-five feet, bearing the
names of the Confederate army and
navy. Inlaid in the floor in front OF

Of the Country Message of Encouragement

lively and enetgetically to assist the
farmers to promote their welfare
through cooperative marketing.
Under the working out of the pro-
VISIONS OF this bill the farmers would
have the active and energetic assist
ance OF the government in meeting
the problem OF surplus production.
through conference the best experts
OF the country would be employed as
the needs require and methods Of
storage, credit and marketing would
be devised The agencies created
would have at their disposal the &C
tive cooperation of the great organi-
cations of the departments of agricul-
ture, commerce and federal banking.
Their representatives at home and
abroad would be engaged in locating
and supplying domestic and foreign
markets.
Farmer to Help Self.
THE fundamental soundness of this
proposal rests on the principle that it
is helping the farmer to help himself"
On the extension of financial aid
to the farmers, the president said:
For financing the farmer we are
developing the farm loan and inter
mediate credit banks. These have put
out about $1,200,000000 of loans at
moderate rates to about $4,000 farm
ers. In addition, there is the general
banking system, national and state.
All of these agencies need to give
more informed attention to farm needs.
The need more energy in administra-
ton. They should be equipped to sup
ply not only credit, but sound bust
ness advice and the farmers to a much
better extent should learn to use all
these facilities"
Agriculture as a whole, President
Coolidge said, he found to be steadily
improving.

1T is always a pleasure for the

from there sent to Eufaula, where he
was made manager at a salary OF OF
So 500 per annum. Claud is about 20
wears OF age and a still bigger success

OFFICERS TO GUARD
BOULEVARD STOPS
Traffic Policemen to Be Put
at Corners Where Cars
Objected to Hating.

Traffic policemen will be stationed,
as predicted yesterday. at the seven
boulevard intersections where the
street railway companies objected to
stopping their cars before crossing.
For several months the street car
companies and the traffic office have
been in disagreement over the ques-
ton of whether street cars should
obey the stop signs at bouleVards.
The decision reached yesterday aft
ernoon to place traffic officers at the
seven locations in dispute solves the
problem, since traffic on both streets
will then move only on the officers
signal.
The points in question are Rhode
Island avenue at New Jersey avenue,
Florida avenue, Seventh street, Ninth
street and Eleventh street; Massa-
chusetts avenue at Ninth street and
New York avenue at Seventh street.
The Commission also decided fol-
lowing the hearing yesterday to aban-
don its plan to require the Capital
Traction Co. to establish safety zones
for street car passengers along Four
teenth street by painting white lines
near the car tracks.
The traction company made strenu-
Gus protest to white line safety zones,
contending they do not afford pas
sengers who stand within them suffi-
cient protection from passing We
hicles. The company also raised the
legal point that the commission has
no authority to compel the railway
