Atlanta Proposes Plan to Save Farm From Fame Hero
World War hero Sergeant Alvin York, famed for capturing over 100 Germans in the Argonne in 1918, is the centerpiece of a plan publicized by G I Cannon of Atlanta to fund a national relief for York by a million dimes toward a gratitude fund. The plan invites every citizen to contribute toward a $100,000 total. Cannon notes York risks losing his farm for refusing to monetize his fame through movies, lectures, or vaudeville. A personal note from Mrs. Cannon adds, I start with three dimes for myself, my wife, and baby. In Turner County a separate item reports farmers favor hiring another county farm demonstrator and oppose cutting farm agent funding, backing dairy and creamery plans and improved cattle knowledge.
