We are not yet ready to say that a woman governor is a failure, but Ma Forgusgon in Texas is in turmoil and sirife up to the very tallest bean pole in her garden of wits. We do not see how she can fight off her political ciemies and rule with moderation und justice at the same time. N e e The ordinary of Crisp county gives notice to the wearers of the gray in this bailiwick that the pension money bas arrived. There is a pointed re minder in the notice he gives that the money cannot be lawfully used for the expenscs of illness and funer al accounts. In other words it will rot be there for the veteran who waits till the Grim Reaper calls. To be more emphatie about it, he means that those to whom the funds belongy should come for it right away. And still the sentiment pgainst the call for an extra session of the legis lature piles up. Nearly all the news papers in Georgia are carrying opin ions expressed against it-——and the surprising thing is that so many mem bers of the general assembly oppose it. We have studied thé situation ang have not yet found it possible to ad vocate tho call. We may not know—- miay not be right in our judgement, but we have some company in our vicw of it. We cannot see where any needy cause in the state can be help ed unless the assembly is willing lo impose heavier taxes and spend the larger income in the wisest possible manner. Certainly the veteran script is not the greatest nced and that is the greatest argument now used for the call for an extra session. If that thing were given to the people for ap rroval, they would thiow it in the ditch as fast as they got to it. Senators Harris and George are go ing to prove their great \\'i:fimn apd statosmanship in the fght which will be made in the coming session of con gress for United States entry imnj the world court. The ”;ll'd‘i\!_‘l-} Hughes-Coolidge terms provide zh:v.? the United States “shall not be hmnn“ by advisory opinions rendered by the court upon questions that the l‘ni(cdl States has not volantarily snhmi(i.'di for its judgement.” This would put us out of everything but that \\hic‘.:‘ we agree to submit, but then it \\'oum‘ be a start in the right direction— lh;:!“ of sending nations to a court of jus:-‘ tice to right their differences just as individuals everywhere have to do lw-] fore open warfare is made. Force and violence among nations ought ml be as unlawful in the code of inter national peace and justice as with in dividuals, They should have re course in peace first to right the wrong imposed, The 'women of 1111.:' country are in the fight for this insti tution, We will come viry, \'m'y! close to joining the other great n:\-f tions in the cause. | sl | NOTICE TO FARMERS | Since there is misunderstanding on the part of some farmers in this lo cality as to the usefulness of the in. formation as to hog production and crop acreages,” obtained from the cards distributed by the rural meil carriers Postmaster Griffin has re quested the Dispatch to publish the following statement furnished by the United States Department of Agri culture: “Thege surveys are made with the iclp of the rural carriers, who either Ustribute the cards to a certain num ber of farmers along their routes, yith the request that these he filled ~ut, or the carrier fills out the card Limself by interviewing the farmer. ‘the carrier is instructed to get in “rmation from fzu‘mi which will give i good average picture or sample of rms on his route, preferably by tak ng all of the farms along a part of s route, big and little, good and soor, owned and rented. If a fair sample of all farms is re tnrned in each State, figures for these arms ghould show the same changes ag all frams. It is impossible to take an actual census enumeration of all farms each year, so changes in pro duction and acreage each year must e estimated from samples. The acorer these sample are to being ex act, the more correct will he the es timates, The need and value of such infor mation for individual farmers and ag ticulture in general hardly need be stressed. Without dependable infor mation as to actual production and irends of px'odvuctrnn both of livestock and crops more balanced production and better mavket distribution are imposgible. The Depariment of Agriculture is the best qualified agency to under teke such work, but the accuracy of its estimates depends upon the ac. curacy of the returns made by farm: ers, \ ~ The heneficial effects that such in formation may have upcn price is shhown by the level of hog prices dur ing the winter of 1924-25 com®ared to the previcus winter. The pig surveys of June and December 1924 showed a decided decrease in hog production in 1924 compared to 1923. Market ings, however, during the winter {from the 1924 crop were almost ag iarge 18 the previous winter, and in Decem ber and January swere the highest on record. In spite of these heavy mar- Iretings, hog prices were from $2.00 o §3.00 per hundred higher than dur ing the winter before. The heavy maerketings were rightly interpreted as being an early marketing of a smaller number of hogs caused by a fhort corn crop and not as indicating ¢ correspondingly larger number of hogs. But unless these estimates can be Kept dependable the trade will disre card them and will be guided either Ly private estimates or by actual marketings as these take place. Therefore, every farmer should help to make these reports accurate by inaking the report for his own farm complete and accurate. THE RIGHT COURSE Mest Qeorgians who are deeply in terested in the movement to sell the memorial coins for the funds'which will be used in completing Stone Mountain Memorial, wil watch with tnterest the chapter movements all cver the state as they, one by one, undo and get out from under a “ma chine driven” state program at the Sandersville division convention ‘in which Mrs. Walter Grace succeeded, after a second ballot and a stuffed hallot box—stuffed because it contain «d the votes of nmfembers of her offi dal staff who cast them twice—in prutting over by one vote her report in which she put the division on rec ord as againgt the support of the sale of the memorial coins here in Geor gin, the home state of the great mem trials The Cordele chapter has done so vwith courage and without the loss oL a moment, A resolution was pass cd without a dissenting vote which sets out that the Sandersville action af Mrs. Grace and cher friends does rot at ail represent the attitude of the members of the Cordele chapter. Mrs. (irace in many respects is a capable 'x\mu:m‘ and has graced her position with the charm of a southern wom nhood, but in her ‘“rule or ruin” policy with regard to Stome Moun tain. Memorial where she served as long as a director as her conduct would permit, she has set Georgia women qgainst her. They ought to g 0 ul’ter‘ her with bonnets and gloves off and pull her curls and bangs till she comes to her senses. Georgia, by 21l odds, clhould be in d{ud earnest about completion of the memorial. The government of this country has done an unpreccedented thing in permitting the coins to be minted for the purpose. The great memorial is in Georgia and this state first of all and most of ali must bene fit of its completion. The Cordele Chapter, U. D. C,, is on record in the right direction. We should do what we could to have the outside world Lelieve we are sincerely behind the movement. Elze, how zhall we ex pect them to give their money toward completing the work of art? Other chapters in the state are doing ex actly what has been done in Cor dele—and that thing ought to be k'ept up till the friends of the cause on the cutside find at least enough of the truth about the real situation to be able to know that Georgians are back ing the coin sale and every other worthy effort to complete the memor ial, ! The resoluticn passed in the Cor dele chapter U. D. C. is ag follows: In as much, as the action of the Qandersville convention, Georgia Di vision U. D. C., on the printing and distribution of that part of the divi sion president's perrot that bore on {he matter of Stone Mountain Mem orial, was taken contrary to the ex pressed wish of a decided majority of the chapters of the division thru their delegates present, and in di rect conflict with the ‘sentiment of cur own chapter, as well as 2 majority of other chapters of the division, Be it resolved: That Cordele Chapter No. 793 TU. D. C. feels under no obligation what ever’io uphold the action of the San dersville cenvention. AN APPALLING NEED In reply to a person who de sired to commit an insane person into the State Sanitarium at Milledgeville, Mr. Brantley re plies as follows: “The sanitarium is so congest ed with patients that we are forc ed to turn away, all but the most acute cases. We have now 4, 700 patients, or 900 more than we can properly care for.” Mr. Brantley has repeatedly ap | pealed to the legislature for more accomodations, during the past six or eight years, but™ his ap peals have fallen on deaf ears— ears too busy with froli¢, fun and | self aggrandizement to pay any attention to Ceorgia's unfortun ates. Mr. Brantley very properly says: “In our judgement, tl;e car ing for these people comes ahead of good roads, and increased ed ucational facilities, important as these may be."—Wilkes County Forum, Mr. Brantley is the head of the logislative committee responsible for the care of the asylum and its in mates. He knows its needs and the public in general shoulgd not charge it against him that he has not stood up and sought improvements. We do not know why those in authority have turied their backs on this sit uation. We 'write these lines not in a spirit of censure, but for the pur pose of letting our readers know that such a condition exists. It is their burden—the ir responsibility—ours alone. The peopie of Georgia will have to look after the insane. If it takes what we give to missions abroad, we ought to divert it to that source—for hu manity that is helpless nearest to us should have first call. We have a tre-. mendous responsibility at the state instituticn for the insane. It is many times larger than any of us know. Mr. Brantley may stand there and call till his voice is gone—he may ap peal time and again, as he did last sumwmer when the legislature 'was go ing into session—-but he is but just one man and when all the powers that chouid help turn their backs and leave him to his own individual re sources—without half enough state funds to operate the institution, noth ing more than a miserable failure may be expected. There is no word in our vocabu lary capable of describing our respon sibility in this case. We have a great number of public needs, but this is ~ THE CORDELE DISPATCH 'one that would never f2il to have iis 'al,p:xiiiug imrression on the ming of "z;::y Georgian investigating far enough to know true conditions. We are amp ly able to make humane every condi tion at the asylum and it ought to be done: THE LOCAL PAPER Herald Journal: Many a local paper now struggling for existence wiuld soon bud into sprightly flecurishing paper of stani na and powerful influence for goud, #f given the preper consideration by the people of the community in which it is published. \ The average person in a communi iy never gives a thought to their county paj2r.
