MACON COUNTY MAY
PAVE DIXIE HIGHWAY

MONTEZUMA Ga, Oct. 13.-At
a rousing meeting of the Kiwants
club here discussion conferred
around the paving of the Dixie high
way through Macon county, pro-
ject which it is hoped will soon be
under way. Representatives from
Peach and Sumter counties were
present and contributed many help
full suggestions.
With the completion of the paw
ing project through Sumter, Macon
and Peach counties there will be a
continuous line of paving on the
Dixie highway from Gainesville to
the Florida line, and it is believed
that this road viii greatly enhance
property values, and otherwise
proves beneficial to this section.
The club voted unanimously to
enter a float in the parade of the
Pecan festival to be held soon in
Albany in connection with the state
Kiwanis convention.

Too Dangerous
a Weapon

One weapon of war is too
dangerous to use against even
rats. That is disease germs.
The California Board of
Health has vetoed a proposition
to combat rats by spreading dis
ease among them. Theoretical
ly. if some disease could be
found to which rats were sus-
ceptible, but to which human be-
ing and all useful animals were
immune, that would be an ideal
way of getting nd of man S
smartest and most persistent enc
my.
But the health authorities hold
that not enough is known of dis
eases to be sure that even the
rattiest of rat diseases might not
spread pestilence elsewhere. So
the rats will be shot, drowned,
smothered. poisoned. starved
and trapped, but not infected.

South Georgia
Methodist Conference

An invitation to the South
Georgia Methodist conference to
hold its 1926 sessions in Ameri-
Gus will be extended by dele
gates from the First Methodist
church when the conference con-
venes at Macon in November of
this year.
If the invitation is accepted,
Americas homes will have the
privilege of entertaining about
400 Methodist ministers, lay
delegates and other church Off
Gals.
1t is worth all that it will cost
us in effort and time to have
these 400 men of God in our
homes and our city for a week
or more" John Sheffield says,
and it could not be put more
aptly.
Arnericus has many splendid
things to show among them most
modern church edifice in
Georgia. Americas hospitality
is proverbial and if the confer
ence accepts the invitation the
delegates know, without being
told. that their stay here will be
both enjoyable and profitable.
Entertaining 400 delegates is
a task which the First church
alone should not be expected
to carry and we believe we
speak the views of every citizen
when we say all Americas homes
will be thrown open to the con-
ference delegates.

''There has been great deal of
talk about the drouth area of

What's the Trouble
With the Mails?

For several months a number
of our subscribers living at a dis
lance have experienced trouble
in getting their daily Iimes-Re-
corder. More complaints have
been received the past three to
FIVE months than in any like Pc
Rod in years.
The papers are printed. They
go into the local postoffice. They
leave the local postoffice, but
after that no one seems to know
what happens.
From Savannah, a subscriber
writes that only one paper was
received in a certain week. An
other writes that three or four
papers are received.
We of the Times-Recorder
subscribe for many daily papers,
printed from New York to Mi
ami. 1t is the exception when
we receive all of these papers for
a given week.
What becomes of the papers
not delivered? They do not
come back to the publisher.
Somewhere in the postal serv-
ice there is gross carelessness.
Daily papers are paying a higher
rate of postage than ever before
and in many instances receiv-
ing poor service.

General Alvaro Oregon has been
visiting California-on business.
He raises beans and wants better
shipping facilities. And that simple
fact is about the most significant
indication of Mexico's deveolment
in constitutional freedom and eco
nomie progress.
For when General Oregon laid
down the presidency because his
term had expired, and turned it
over to success whose only title
was that he had been elected by the
people, that was something that had
never happened before in Mexico.
If it can keep on happening,
Mexico is politically free.
And if Mexico's public men, on
retiring from office, will set the
example of raising beans, or grow
ing anything else useful, Mexico
will be prosperous.
Three things that Mexico needed,
| 1t has now measurably attained
political stability schools and OPP
portunity for the people, and at
tention robustness.
One more thing it needs. That is
foreign capital. 1t can get that only
on capitalistic terms.
There are many arguments in
favor of Socialism, and any earn
est people believe in them.
But one thing Socialism can not
do. That is to serve as bankable
security for capitalistic world.
This is not mere theory. 1t
translates inself into very prac-
teal fact.
Mexico announces an impregn-
able political principle. Those who
Invest in Mexico must do so under
Mexican law, and have exactly the
rights of Mexican investors.
/ This is fair" enough. But fair
ness Is not enough.
The capitalist world has certain
standards of the inviolability of

If Mexico chooses to make land
Ownership a revocable privilege
thoritysubject to recall by politica
authority, it is ''fair" to apply the
same principle TO native and foreign
investors alike.
But the result will be that foreign
investors will stay at home, WHERE
they do not have to take that risk

The capital development of Mexi-

ence of the capitalists of the world
that they will deceive, not merely
fair" but capitalistic treatment.
Fortunately, the new regime in
Mexico bids fair to meet even this

ma.
The distribution of the large
estates of Mexico among the people
is a political and economic neces4
.sity. We would be doing the same
thing in this country, too, if we had
the same situation.
To do this involves some me-
Iification of the orthodox concep
ton of the inviolability of propert!
in land. And to do this to Mexican
property necessarily means doing i
also to foreign-ow-ned property
which is precisely what foreign in
