Sees Reinflation
Opportunity Past
Economist Says Competition Has Been
Heightened by America Staying
on G(\ld Bask.
Meat Curing Methods
to Be Demonstrated
Agricultural Experts Will Conduct
Meet in Augusta Tuesday Morn
ing, November 29.
Boston, Ncv. 18.—America* had
mis?td the opportunity for reinflation,
Virgil Jordan, New York ‘economist,
told the New England conference t -
day, and now faces the neces-ity for
a radical write down cf capital val
ues an d debts. The conference was
spensored by the New England coun
cil.
Because this country adh.ars to the
jr Jd standard, he said, competition in
the foreign fie'd would lx* greatly in
tensified. Therefcre, he said, to an
increasing extent, thi’ volume output
of American industr y must be absorb
ed by the domestic market.
But he added, "it will be impossible
to do this if wage standards are low
ered .to anything lifrcf the extent to
which commodity price s have been or
must be."
If American business abandoned its
alibi habit, he -aid, and buckled down
to the job, energetically, intelligently
and in a spirit of equity, it will be
possible to re-establish on a sound
basis, without continued delay which
would incur - the danger of social di -
tir bance.-.
He said a start <n the road to rt^
-covery might bo* mad - next spring but
that he, personally, was doubtful
whether sufficient progres- cmrld be
made by then for basic readjustments.
In spite of seasonal improvement
this fall, he said, the pre-ent level of
business-activity in most lines wa s on
“a bankruptcy level.”
J. J. Pelley, president of the Now
Haven rai'ioad, said: "This country
cannot continue to pout in hundreds
cf millions of ddlar s each year to
subsidize highway, water and air
transportation to compete with the
railroads. Subsidized transportation
mu-t he bright to an end for all
time.”
Field Agent L. H. Marlett, cf the
Extension Division of the State Col
lege of Agriculture of Athens, Ga.,
will conduct a demon-tration of the
most approved methods cf cutting and
curing meat in Augusta Tuesday
appear before me, in the Court cf
Probate, to be held at Barnwell, S. C.,
on Saturday, December 3rd, next
after publication thereof, at 11 o’clock
in the forenoon, to show cause, if any
they have, why the said Administra
tion should not be granted.
Given under my hand this eighth-
teenth day of November, A. D. 1932.

temperature in and around Augusta
is through the* winter months and that
eiu^ t > the rapid changes, it is diffi
cult to sat'e'y cure* without refrigera
tion.
The* new meat cur ing plant of the
Augusta Iceland Goal Co. is one of
the best equipped in the* Southeast'
and has a capacity of one* million
ipcund s c f meat. It has hee*n laid cut
according to th* most approved plan.
There are scores cf separate com
partments in the storage' room and
each farmer’s meat will be kept to
itself.
Experts recommend that farmers
kill and dress the meat and biin^ it
to the cold storage p’ant to be cooled
for twenty-four hcur$ being being cut
and cured. Much meat i* spoiled by-
curing before body heat has been
drawn from the bones. It is esti
mated that over 2,000,000 pounds of
home-cured meat spoiled last year in
Georgia alone because it was either
not cooled properly before the curing
e-r it was not held at the.xitfht tem
perature during the forty day s it
takes to properly cure meat.

Augusta Ice and Coal Co. is cooperat
