II Atlanta doesn't want its Fifth

nothing at all, and then, along about
next fall. Atlanta won't have any
Fifth Regiment OF any National
Guard at all
And then. IL riot should come
along. or any other row should turn
up Gas such things sometimes have
done), Atlanta can just fix up lis own
little posse and tend to the situation.
That. in effect. is the way Colonel
orville Hall, commanding the Fifth
Regiment, and the other officers feel
about the apathy or even active an
tagonism certain Atlanta business
men and employers have shown in
regard &c their employees belonging
to the National Guard.
Burden Getting Heavy.
mo hard feelings" said Colonel
Hall IN an interview Thursday, fol-
lowing a meeting with a special

day before No hard feelings-we
love 'em still, and all that. But we
have carried the burden by ourselves
as long as we can stand II, not only
without help, but also in the face of
certain kind OF very discouraging
opposition"
The Chamber OF Commerce has just
been apprised of ethe feeling among
the regimental officers. and has APP
pointed the following committee to
consider the matter with the regi-
mental committee: e. E. Pomeroy,
formerly colonel of the Fifth, chair
man; Wilmer Il. Moore, Colonel F. J..

Colonel Hall in his Interview said
the position of the regiment was in no
way a bluff"
This really is a crisis" he said.
I'VE are not acting without due re-
Election; in fact. we are not going TO
act at all until after the summer en-
campment. We have promised the
men that camp and they shall have it..
but after that. unless we discover
that we really are wanted here in
Atlanta, we shall just apply to the
Governor for an honorable discharge,
before the National Government, its
attention drawn by insufficient num-
bers of enlisted men, shall give us q
dishonorab1e discharge"
But that wasn't ALL by a good deal.

agine we could do this without inn

soap is all the city gives us.
But that isn't 1t. We are abso-
