national trade, although Secretary
Hull is trying.
II would be glad to see the Federal
Government subsidize education, par
ticularly in industrial training, as a
means Of raising the economic level of

Georgia today has an equalization

DR.. Forster:
Regional Problems.
"' Solutions OF our regional
problems are bound together and can
not be solved piecemeal - Our
failure to recognize that all areas are
bound together has been responsible,
no doubt, for the development of our
present situation. Each area, indeed,
often each State, is bent on obtaining
special privileges to the disadvantage
Of all other States and areas.
"* Local communities have
erected, through legislation, numerous
trade barriers, although the Constitu-
ton clearly denies to the States the
right or power to regulate interstate
commerce.
Our State tax systems have been
used to the interest of individuals and
corporations within the State to the
disadvantage of the people as whole.
1T thus appears that these bar
riers to interstate trade, combined with
standing protective tariff, has,
without question, brought the South
to state Of economic and social ex-
haustion.
There is a tendency for our states
men to quibble and fight over non
essentials. They are not as vet will
ing to determine the facts and. on the
basis of these. to work together in
the formulation Of comprehensive
national program. Until they are will
ing to do this, there Is little hope that
the Souths problem or any other re-
gional problem will be solved"
Human Erosion" Problem.
Mr.. Garnett:
Human erosion is equally as grave
problem in all the Southern States
as soil erosion, before there can be
sound State and national develop
ment. the South's human erosion
producing conditions must be car
rected.
"A variety of national problems
have contributed to the south's pres
ent plight. National action, as well
as team pull by all State agencies, is
called for in, needed corrective meas
ures."

near Baileys Cross Roads discovered
the animals condition when he went
out to the pasture about $50 am.
to drive his dairy herd to the barn
for milking. During the night some

~ the Associated Press.
The National Emergency Council
will make public its report on economic
conditions In the South Wednesday.
the day before President Roosevelt
makes two addresses in Georgia.
The timing Of the report left little
doubt that the survey Of what the
President has called the Nations mo.

important to the administrator cam
paign to win over the entire South to
Roosevelt policies.
The degree Of this importance prob
ably will be brought out either in
Mr.. Roosevelt's speech accepting q
University Of Georgia degree At Athens
or in his remarks dedicating q Rural
Electrification project at GAINESVILLE.
Mr.. Roosevelt will disembark from
the y. 8. 8. Houston ct Pensacola to-
morrow. While at Warm Springs,

tunity to 60 over the economic survey
and select statements for possible use

There is some belief the report
