this means there will be less money with
which to build new roads. All these prob-
lems must lie in the sound judgment and
discretion of those charged by law with
the responsibility.
The State of Georgia lies in the main
path of tourists from the East and Middle
West; and, Georgia naturally has more
attractions for visitors than any other one
State east of the Mississippi. These at-
_tractions of nature can be developed and
publicized so as to make the use of our
highways by tourists profitable instead
of a burden; and, this, of course, should
be done.
People living alone the roads should
have convenient ingress and egress to
make the use of the roads most conven-
ient and, at the same time, make it easy
for people living along the roads to have
places of business and tourist attractions
so located that travellers would find it
easy and inviting to stop and stay a while.
The development of a big marketing
system for both farm and industrial pro-
- ducts centralized in a big State Market
at or near Washington, D. C. makes it
imperative that our highways leading to
market centers be adequate for all pur- .
poses.
The development and expansion of
our rural areas consistently create a de-
- mandand rightfully sofor addition-
al short line highways connecting busi-
ness centers through agricultural dist-
ricts. :
COUNTY CONTRACTS
Georgia has approximately 9,000 con-
DROUGHT ROTICE
| am having survey made over
the State to determine the ex-
tent of drought damage in dif-
ferent areas. As soon as this is
completed, it will be forwarded
to Washington in connection with
our request for disaster aid for
Georgia farmers.

victs, most of whom are being used im
road work in various counties of the State.
Under the present system, expenditure of
State money for maintaining convicts
amounts to roughly $140.00 per man per
year. In some other Southeastern States
the cost per man runs as high as $1,000 _
per year.
If county contracts with the Highway
Department were discontinued, it would
be necessary to construct another pent-
tentiary at Reidsville to house these con-
victs. They would be taken out of fresh
air and sunshine and confined within the
walls of a prison.
Contracts between counties and the
Highway Department are not negotiated
contracts because the Law of the State
sets out the price that the counties can
receive per unit of work done. _
The use of the convicts in counties in-
sures the building of farm to market
roads in accordance with the wishes of
the people in the county who elect their
- county officers. In this way, all available
funds for farm to market roads can be
used without any additional overhead or
additional employees in the Highway De-
partment.
As soon as funds are available for the |
purpose, a clearing house should be set
up as an induction center for all new con-
victs where they can have a thorough
physical examination and attention to in-
sure their health and where they can be
classified according to age and criminal
records and assigned in groups-so as to
encourage youthful offenders to mend
their way of living and make it possible
for-them to become useful citizens.
TOLL ROADS
There has been considerable discus-
sion about toll roads in Georgia. Any busi-
ness that depends upon tolls or other
charges must have sufficient volume of
business so that the tolls will pay for
the original cost of construction and, at
the same time, pay the cost of maintain-
ing and operating it. This is true of toll
roads.
The records show that where it is
necessary for a lot of people to cross a
river, a toll bridge usually pays off. At
the same time, toll roads do not pay off.
They have to be subsidized with tax
money to protect the bond holders.
If Georgia were to build toll roads and.
the traffic on such roads was insuiticient

to pay for construction, maintaining and
pperation, it would be necessary to dig
into tax money to keep them going.
It would certainly be unprofitable to
fhe farmers and other people in Georgia
to pledge any existing revenue for the
pepe of ereating bond holders money
at had been used to build toll roads
since all surveys made indicated that no
road in Georgia has enough traffie over
it to make it pay for its own way.
If Georgia were to guarantee bonds
for building toll roads, and if we ran into
a business recession so that our revenue
deelined, we would probably find our-
selves in a position of having to use gas-
oline tax to pay for bond holders and
would be forced to cut down on the build-
ing and maintaining of new roads and ex-
isting roads, This would result in a tre-
mendous loss because of a lack of proper
maintenance on existing roads.
Because of all the reasons set out
herein, I consider the question of toll
roads for the forseeable future an aca-
demic question and not one which will
require serious consideration.

MARTHA BERRY the Sunday Lady
Reprint from Market Bulletin
Wednesday, April 26, 1950.
Eight years ago when Martha Berry
passed on, the following article was car-
ried in the Bulletin. In addition to being
a tribute to Martha Berry this story of
Berry Schools is such a fine inspiration to
boys and girls that I am reproducing it
herewith as follows:
The Schools are my life, the red clay
hills my home, the wind in the pines is
my song, and when I die a grave beside
the chapel shall be my resting place,
once said Miss Berry.
Martha Berry is dead, but her name
will live forever. She lives on in the
hearts and hands of the thousands of
country boys and girls who have been
privileged to attend the Berry Schools.
She lives on with all those with whom
she came in contact.
Martha Berry was born relatively
wealthy and could have lived a life of
ease, but she chose the task across the
road. Miss Berry started the Berry
Schools in a log cabin near her home
where she taught the nearby underpriv-
fieged children Bible stories.
Her fame as a Sunday School teacher
quickly spread and she was in demand in
the other communities near her home,
one of which was called Possum Trot.
From this humble, Christian beginning
grew the Berry Schools, said to be the

and acres of land, one hundred and
twenty-five modern buildings, and twelve

for an-education from grammar school
level to a college degree.
They teach the Bible and the dignity
of work at Berry. No one can attend Berry
and not- work. All the activities of this

great institution are carried on by the
sade themselves, the classes alternat-
ing in a program of work and study. Each
year more than five thousand boys and
girls eager for a chance to get an educa-
tion are turned away because they cannot
be accommodated. Even then, nearly fif-
teen thousand have passed through the
Gate of Opportunity at, Mount Berry,
and have gone back to the communities
from which they came, and are making ~
those communities a better place in which
to live because they caught a little of the
spirit of Martha Berry. ;
Miss Berry, in a letter marked, To be
read after my death said, The real
strength of Berry Schools lies in its Chris-
tian faith. She further said, The future
of the Berry Schools has always been on
my mind and heart, In leaving it, I want |
to entreat the trustees to carry on the
work in the spirit in which it was found-
ed, keeping it always within the means of
poor boys and girls; maintaining the in-
dustrial work and teaching the dignity of
