Fulton Doctors Oppose Federal Loan for Steiner Ward
Atlanta physicians from the Fulton County Medical Society survey say a federal loan to expand Grady Hospital’s Steiner Ward would create unfair competition and is unnecessary due to ample beds and facilities. They report 1933 hospital vacancies averaging 55 percent daily and widespread X Ray and radium availability across Georgia and neighboring states.

Georgia Leaders Endorse Bankhead Plan For Cotton Control
Commissioner of Agriculture G C Adams and Senator Walter F George announce support for the Bankhead bill to restrict cotton output by licensing gins. The measure would grant gin permits based on past production and penalize ginners handling cotton without permits. Adams says only licensing can curb production. Georgia faces an expected 300000 bales rise without control. George believes passage strengthens curtailment and price support.
