are they when we come to the vast

making an issue for somethirig in

against them that they try to block

MUST GEORGIA STAY OUT? |
A campaign is being conductel by
the Junior Chamber of Commerce of
Atlanta to raisc a tuud of $20,000.99
to defray the expense of Georgia's
exhibit at the Southernn Exposition
to be held at the Grand Central
Palace in New York City in May.
*The Exhibition is purely South
ern, and includes only the Southern
States. It is to be held for the pur
pose of affording the Southern
states ap opportunity to display
their resources to the world at large
and especially to the world’s great
est buying and linvestment center.
All of the Southern States will
be represented at this exposition,
providing, of course, that the pro
gressive citizens of Georgla will
come to the aid of those who are
striving to enter her rtesources in
the exhibits. All of the states except
Georgia have been assured of ex:
hibits, ‘their legislatures having ajp
propriated sufficient funds. Géorgia
has mot been so favored. ™
An effort was made at the last
gessiop of the Georgia Legislature
to obtain an appropriation of $15,-
000.00 to bear the expenses of pre
paring Georgia’s exhibit. This bill
was favorable passed by the Senate
and was recommended for rassage
by the House Committee, but was
lost ini the jam on the last days of
the session and did not come to a
vote. Thus it was lost. |
The ne%vspapers of the , state de
‘plored its loss at the time and it was
i'soon forgotten, Some few weeks ago
' the Editor of the Manufacturer’s
Record called attention to the fact
that Georgia would be the only
state unrepresented at the Southern
Exposition, and pointed out the
harm that would inevitable result in
such lack of representation. Georgia
cannot afford not to be a full
fledged lentry in this exposition. Our
resources are unequaled by any «
er Southern state, and at a time
when capital is searching for new
avenues of investment it would be
nothing short of a erime for Georgia
to ffail to take advantage of this o+
portunity “to demonstrae her re
sources to the world.
Georgia has received some very
unfavorable publicity at the hands
of the press in the North and East.
It can be shown at'the -exposition
that puch eriticism was unfounded
and malicious. W\e can 'present an
exhibit that will match any other
state in- the country. We are going
to do that provided we can obtain
the money to bear the expenses in.
cident thereto.
It is unfortunate that our legisla
ture did not approprriate the amount
requested. Yet, that is the situation,
and we must make the most of it.
The Junior Chamber of Commerce
of Atlanta was drafted by the mere
experienced organizations to con
duct this campaign. Of necessity it
had to be a state-wide campaign
that could handle the matter, The
Junior Chamber accepted the ' chal
lenge in a spirit of patriotism and
calls upep every citizen and organ
ization to aid them in raising
this money. 3
The space to be occupied by the
state exhibit will be 2500 square
feot at $3.00 per square foot.e This
will require $7,500.00 Then will one
come the expense of preparing the
exhibits, transporting them to New
York and returning them to Georgia.
The expense will be consderable and
will require a minimum of $20,000,-
00.
The agriculturual exhibit will be
in charge of Dr. Andrew Soule of
the University of Georgia. The min
~eral exhibit will be in charge of
Dr. McCalla, State Geologist. Qther
_exhibits, such as the:*.ceramic . de
‘partment of Georgla Tech, Martha
‘Berry Schools, Talullah Falls
iSchools, Stone Mountain Memorial,
Georgia’s Water-Power Develorment
and possibilities, etec., will he ar.
ranged by the Executive Committee
appointed by Governor Walker for
that ipurpose.
An effort will be made to have
the Legislature to appropriate the
amount raised for this campaign,
and 'which, in the event it is ar
propriated, will be reurned dollar
for dollar to the subscribers of
'téh'\m 'lfhil”ls a threat and not a
promise, But since this is entirely a
matter for the state at large it is
reasonable to suppose that he legis
lature will act favorable on such a
proposal, \ 4
The matter of Guorgia’s repre
sentation at this exposition, means
as much to one Georgia city as ito
another. It is a state matter, and
one that deserves the surport of allf
prdgresslve citizens, Give a littpe‘
thought to the effect that ' will be‘
produced if Georgla' is the ; only
Southern state unrepresented at a
Southrn Exposition, If this should
happen it is no wonder that natiag":ml
magazines should ask: ‘‘What’s the
matter with Georgia?” X
ALBANY PARKS MORE BUNK
The editor of the Albany Herald |
maintains a page that ordinarily is
too high-toned for the power com
bine bunk we saw parked in his
columns the other day about the
Ontario power system costing the
province more than the people could
pay—just an immense power flow
from Niagara without any millions
in dams and maintenance. Lo
Albany owns its public utilities.
Is this stuff aimed to cause the pub
lic in Albany to surrender its public
utilities? |
Under the cpal handicaps in On
tario, the Britisher up there has
done the very wisest thing possible
—bored into the granite walls of;'Ni
agara and stuck down great gen
erators to turn op forever. The in
dustrial development in Ontario,
let alone the fact that the lines
carry this power more thap two
hundred miles at a cost to the cus.
tomer of less than five cents g
kilowat hour, is the greatest ‘chal
lenge of the false power combine
propaganda. !
There is mo more wisely, mo more
economically managed, mno more
valuable pubucly-owned' utility on
the map of the North ' American
continent than the power supply
which the province of Ontario gets
out of the houndless source of Ni
agara on money expernded by the
state for the developm.ent.
If Onmtario had nothing else but
the saving ip costly coal which it
no longer uses through the long se
.vere winters, because it heats, cooks
‘and lights Wwith this power in the
‘rural as well as the urban territory,
i it would be more than lavishly jus
tified in tapping‘i Niagara for its
wonderful supply of electric curremt.
God in his handiwork at Niagara
has given mankind the finest source
of electric power in the wide wor
| —and yet the rower combine has
the nerve to tackle Niagara and de
-1 clare it doesn’t pay—and here
comes @ little tooter tooting that
stuff into the ears of people to he
lieve down here in Albany, Georgia!
Pardon us, maybe the writer
‘of these lines doesn’t know.
MEASURING THE STARS
Determination that the object in
the universe most remote from the
earth among those vigible through
the highest powered telescopes is
the faint star cloud known to as
stronomrs as NGC 6822, is one of
the latest contributions of the Har
vard College Observatory to astrono
mical lore. Through studies made
under the supervision of Professor
Harlow Shapely, director of the ob
servatory, it has been estimated
that this star cloud is about one
million light years distant. In the
language of the layman this means
a distance of approximately six
teen quadrillion, seventy trillion,
four hundred billion miles. i
NGC 6822 was thought by the as
tronomers Perrine, Duncan and
Hobbs to be analgous to the Magel
lanic clouds. Studies made at the
Harvard Observatory, however, seem
to indicate that it lies well outside
the Milky Way system. It has been
estimated that a dirigible making a
non-stop flight and travelling night
and day at a speed of sixty miles
an hour would require 33,115,000.-
000 years to reach this distant spot.
Another accomplishment of the
observatory is the recent com
pletion of Volume 99 of Harvard An-
'TH& CORDELE DISPATCH
mals, the last of mine volumes of
’Vtwmw- /Catalogue, an - adtfono.
mical “work ¢ covering information
;qoncemmx 260,000 stars. ‘Work “0!,!1‘
‘the Draper geries, planned in'detail
by Professor William Henry Picker
ing |n 1911, has been lin Dprogress
for. more than 13 years.
These volumes gshow the posmons'r.i
magnitudes and spectral classes of
‘the stars. Analyses of the data thus
collated aré mow in progress. It is
estimated that op the spectra plates
in 'the Ha:‘jaqi collection there are
1,000,000 faint stars still unclassi.
fied.
This prtqelosfi collection of as
tronomical photograrhic plates, for
years surrounded by a fire hazard,
ig now well safeguarded. Professor
Shapely said that tests had been‘
made which demontrated that the‘
plates : ~were secure from either
fire or ‘water damage. They are kept%
in a brick storehouse, equipped
with 'a water sprinkler system. 1
/' Since the first photograrh of a
star was made‘ in 1850 under the
supervision of Professor George C.
Bond, the Harvard collection has
been growing steadily. Systematic
photegraphic work with several
telescopes was begum prior to 1900.
Dozens of telescopes at the observa
tory and at its stations in Arequipa,
Peru, and elsewhere are constantly
adding to the collection, which now
oumbers some 300,000 rfates. Nearly
all of these are considered of value
in the study of current astronomical
problems, and those taken prior to
1900 are said to be unduplicated
elsewhere.
