Former Congressman William G.
Brantley. now general counsel for a
number OF Southern railroads, with
headquarters in Washington. is in At
lanta for few days. He called upon
Governor Slaton to-day in the execu-
tive Offices of the Capitol.
1t generally is agreed, not only in
Georgia, but throughout the nation,
that the national House of Represen-
tatives lost a real statesman when
Mr.. Brantley retired. On both sides
of the House. Republican and Demo-
cratic alike. Mr. Brantley was most
highly respected and genuinely es-
teemed He was rated as, perhaps,
the very best lawyer on the Demo-
cratic side, particularly on constitu-
tional points. When he first an
nounced his intention to retire from
Congress, his Immediate colleagues
from Georgia united in protest and
petition that he reconsider, and IN
this they were joined by very lage
majority of the entire Congressional
membership. Mr.. Brantey had then
served IN Congress for many years
at a tremendous financial sacrifice,
however. and he did not feel that he
could continue to do that, in justice

Mr.. Brantley states that he has re-
tired definitely and finally from the
field of politics. His name has been
suggested, time and again, for the
United States Senate, but he says he
has no ambition in that direction and
never expects to ask for that or any
other office. He speaks with great
affection of the people of the district
he formerly represented in Congress,
and, while necessarily absent from
the State the greater portion of his
time, he still retains his citizenship
here and remains Georgia's loyal son.
