THE death knell Of the republican
party will be sounded tomorrow and
socialism will be swept into control
on November 4" A. was the way
Eugene v. Debs, socialist aspirant
for presidential honors, sized up the
outlook to a United Press reporter
at Chicago Monday. THE present
situation" he said. is exactly the
same as 1t was in 1860, when the
whig party disappeared and the dem
ocratic party broke up. It was then
that the republican party was born,
and it swept the country The So
cialists will sweep the country this
time in the face of the coming
smash"

VIM. B. KENT
D|SBARRED
BY HIGH
COURT
Ruling Against Montgomery
County Attorney and LegIs-
Iator Is Permanent.

William 5. Kent. member OF the state
legislature from Montgomery county
and former football star at the Univer-
sity of Georgia, today was permanent
ly disbarred by the supreme court from
the practice of law in Georgia
The high court. in dismissing Kents
appeal in point of fact, affirmed the de-
cision Of the superior court of Mont
gomery county which had adjudged
Kent guilty of unprofessionsl tactics
in hiding papers from the Montgomery
county courts and arranging court rec
ords to aid his clients.
Action for disbarnent in Montgon7-
cry county was brought against Kent
by FIVE of the most prominent attorneys
in that section Of the state-J. 3. Grei.
ger A. c. safold Eugene Talmadge
w. W. Lewis and L. c. Underwood.
They had been associated in a suit in
which Kent hid papers to delay trial
HID PAPERS FROM
COURT TO AID CLIENT.
An array of Montgomery county at
torneys appeared against Kent in the
supreme court. The legislator defended
himself, aided only by W. W. Bennett
The lawyers who acted against Kent in
the supreme court were Escho Ora
ham, F. H safold E. J. Giles and w.
c. Davis
The record Of the case shows that
Kent while defending client in suit
involving money deliberately HID the
original papers from the court for three
months to obtain delay of the trial.
Later in the same case it was discov-
cred he had been guilty of changing the
court records to obtain a more favora-
Bile judgment for this same client.
Kent who, with Representative
Threat Moore, of Butts county, and
Sandy Beaver, of Stone Mountain,
formed for two years a star trio on the
University of Georgia football team,
attracted considerable attention in the
state legislature last summer in an at
tempt to establish a new county Gre
ated from a portion of Montgomery
county, to be known as Kent county.
The county was to be named in honor
of Kent's father, he said but he usually
srinned when he was accused of trying
to name q county after himself.
