The charter proposed for the city of Atlanta
will make for temporary period at least much confusion in
the city government Those meaning citizens who Op
posed to the Reform Charter what better known the
Gambler Hopkins Woodward Charter have advanced
why their views should be listened with respectful attention
But The Georgian believe that there anything
be gained by these opponents of the Gambler Hopkins Woodward
charter discussing matters which bearing
fundamental standpoint of the charter.
Dr. j. White the other day made what The Constitution

when says he find 300 will willing

quite likely 900 would willing

And the office of mayor must be made attractive the right

We believe the Office of mayor be made ATTRACTIVE
