BATTLE There has been determined propaganda in America for 30 years to the effect that state gov- ernments were impotent. As a Southern Governor, I was sup- posed to be righteously indignant on all public occasions about the| freight rate discrimination that is one of the main causes for that poverty which the root of allj the South’s economic and social ills. But it was presumed, likewise, that action about the matter would be limited to the filing of polite complaints with the drowsy Inter- state Commerce Commission and! to the assumption in public of a suitable lachrymase attitude. The State of Georgia, it was assumed, could do nothing about the matter. Reports from the Tennessee Valley Authority, the President's Committee, the Southeastern Re- gional Planning Board and scores of other agencies disclosed the acute need for smashing the trans- | portation cartel. That industrial-| ization, to balance agriculture, was a prime need for the Southern and Western States was strikingly ob- vious. That delay until the ter- mination of the war, permitting the junking of every newly de- veloped industrial facility by the: sections, would be suicidal clearly apparent So Georgia States Supreme Court break up the intricate unofficial bureaucracy that was imp 18 out- 1ageous transportation rates on the section.
