BIRD CLUB NOTES
At the meeting of the Bird Club,
Saturday morning, Walter Burgees
read from Senator Jonah Bailey's
article, "The Song of the Cardinal,"
which appeared to the March "Pro
gressive Farmer," as A tribute to the
late Senator, who wrote it a number
of years age describing spring and
her approach. /i'Afl
"And Spring shall blow her clarion
o'er the dreaming earth?Shelley.
The cardinal's high and Joyous call
breaks the silence of winter. The
white-throat trills a wistful winter
sang. Wrens and bluebirds are call
tog. Robins come in flocks and sil
ent, shortly to pair off and sing their
love songs before the break of dawn
and far into the dusk. The mocking
bird is singing. The bluebird is neat
tog. We bear the field sparrow's
evensong of praise, as simple and
true as the prayer of a little child.

Down As Governor
Atlanta, Ga., Man* 1# ? The
State Snperme Court rejected ebdma
of Herman Talmadge today as gov
ernor of Georgia, and the ousted
champion of white supremacy yield
ed to Lieut.-Gov. H. E. Thompson
with a vow to take his ease to the
people. -!;k
The high court, in an historic, 3
to-2 decision, voided the legisla
ture's election at young Talmadge
in place of his late father, Eugene
Talmadge, who died 28 days before
inauguration.
"Such attempted election," said
the court, ""was a void act, which
did not confer upon him any right
or title to the office of governor."
The court held that when Tal
madge died, there was no legal suc
cessor to Gov. Elfls Arnall, and de
clared A mall held over. When he
resigned voluntarily Jan. 18, 1847,
the court continued, executive au
thority passed to the lisutanant-gov
The decision came nine weeks to
the day af^r Talmadge seized phy
sical control of the executive offices
and governor's mansion with state
troopers sad National Guard offi
cers. It ended a period of unpre
cedented turmoil in which two rivals
contended for control of Georgia's
government.
Talmadge then told reporters: "In
all political questions the court of
last resort is the people of Georgia.
This question will be carried to the
court of last resort"

These reductions, which wSI save the users
of our products approximately $20,000;000 a
year, will become effective befcte April 1, and w
will apply to a selected list of tractor, farm
machine, motor truck, and industrial power
products. Since we lose money on a few of our
products, and barely break even on soma
others, these reductions win not apply to our
entire line. Reductions will be made indi- -
vidually on products. Some will be cut more
than others. Exact details wffl be announced
as soon as pn?ihi?.
Our ability to maintain this lower level of ;
prices will depend in part on what happens to
the prices arid flew of materials that we feuy
from others. Because we believe price reduc
tion is vital, we are willing to assume the risks
that are involved.
