and do not drink and drive"

1t is a well known fact that a
law-ahiding city is greatly to be
preferred to an area where law
enforcement is a major problem.
It is preferred by a man who
wants to rear a family and it is
preferred by an industrialist or
manufacturer who is looking for
a place to expand operations.
When an industrial concern
spends money for a factory it is
going to invest it where it will
have the best chance of secur-
ing dependable, steady labor sup
ply - and no industrialist in his
right mind will put his own mon
ey into a venture in a community
where the temptation is strong to
get drunk every Saturday night.
It is a matter of national record
that absenteeism is a problem in
cities where widespread lawless-
ness exists.
II we are to ever show any pro-
gress in industrial development
we should try to improve this
situation in Holmes county.

HAZEL
EYES
by Hazel Bronnon Smith

Kinds county's Grand Jury calls
the attention of its citizens to the
importance of controlling the OBJ
erations of the notorious Gold
Coast" of adjoining Rankin coun-
ty.
For many years citizens of
Jackson and Kinds county have
bought their whiskey from the
Rankin county area.
The Kinds jurors ask the gen
eral public and all law enforce
ment officers to give serious con
sideration to the enactment OF
measures to control the taxicabs
of Jackson in the transportation
of stolen goods and passengers un-
der the influence of liquor be-
tween the city of Jackson and the
Rankin county area.
'sWe find" the grand jury said,
'that in a large percentage of the
criminal acts occurring in the
City of jackson and the immedi-
ate surrounding area, the case is
directly traceable to certain 10
cations across the Pearl river ir
Rankin county"
A firm stand for control of the
Rankin county area is asked b,
the grand jury.
we see a definite danger to the
future growth and prosperity Of
the City of Jackson if this is not
DONE" the report concluded.
