It closed its doors last night af- er the association'’s attorney, Wal- ter M. Shea, and United States At- torney David A. Pine had a few words. Pine said the association con- stituted a lottery. Shea said his cu- |ents would close their doors, but wouldn’t concede the operaticns were illegal. As an afterthought, Pine said he wasn’t convinced it was illegal, either. Here's the' way it worked: A member pays 95 cents dues to join the association, receiving a bock of tickets entitling him to buy at a discount at nine specified re- tail houses. His name was placed lon a chain list at the same time. |The “client™ then gets two other | applicants (remember the chain let- |ters?) His name goes on their lists, |restricted to seven names. When a |person’s name reaches the head of the list he pays $5 to the person who headed the list before he took top "position. And so it goes and goes— and went until last night. The most a person could “realize” was $600 on his $5.95 investment. ! profit producers.

Govern- ment in Red Hills of Georgia, Make Good By PAUL SIMMONS AP Fcature Service Writer HAM.L.JON, Ga., March 8— A promise of a different kind of farm- g in the South—a kind that not only brings a good living but also regular cash profits—is emerging from a 13.000-acre settlement in the red hills of Georgia. It is coming from community farm industries built around 200 families who are finding a new life on land the Federal Relief administration bought four years ago for $11 an acre. Hard hit by the depression, the families wer¢ none too hopeful when they settled on the 16- to 36-acre farms in Pine Mountain Valley. But now their pantries are full and their produce is selling.

Bennett, a former county farm agent, says: “1 am convinced that a farm de- velopment with as much 2,500 acres of reasonably good land can, with wise management, be made to pay greater dividends than almost any other industry you might select It takes a lot of planning and busi- ness abilicy, but it can be done.” Soil Is I'mproved The first step in Pine Mountain Valley's success, he says, was ter- racing the worn-out fields with modern machinery and laying out the farms for efficlent use of the different land types. Seil-building crops—mainly vetch, Austrian peas and crimson clover in the winter and field peas, soy beans and velvet beans in the sum- mer—have doubled the land’s pro- ductivity, There is no letup in this direction and Bennett does not see any limit to the benefits. - Mrs. Lloyd Green, who recently underwent a major operation, was dismissed from St. Ann's Hospital today. > - Fanny Friday underwent a major operation at the Government Hos- pital this morning. - EPTH OF SNOV, : 1 ALASKA REGION The following depths of snaw were reported on the ground Mon- day, P.
