EMPLOYEES RESENT
POLITICAL REPORT
Which Was Circulated Re-
gardinS Company Fav-
orinS Candidates

We love Bogalusa because it is
honey, hospitable, beautiful, genial,
restful and healthful. Where your
real gentleman is by no means ex-
tinct, where your beautiful and
lovable woman abounds, where 70.
nance. love.making and embellish-
ing the earth are in vogue. We are
attached to Bogalusa because the
Great Southern Lumber Company's
interests are here, and we stand in
dignity and thrill with pride because
we are employees Of this company
and live in Bogalusa; and we resent
with all the force Of nature at our
command the report being circulated
by some two-by-four, gimlet-headed
politicians, whose brain capacity
should be figured from a guinea.pis
basis, that the Great Southern Lum-
Der Company had centered on
certain candidates for State and
Parish offices for their support and
would have their employees vote
likewise.
| Now | am in position to know
and do know that this is a pre-
varication in the vilest form. 1t is
an insult to our intelligence and is
resented by the employees of the
Great Southern Lumber Company
as such. 1t was no doubt born in
some wild political imagination be-
cause BogaluSa'S intelligent citizens
generally vote practically the same
wagon the right side at that, and
there's a reason
The Great Southern Lumber Com
pany is an indispensable asset to
Bogalusa. Without them Bogalusa
never would have existed, and we
need them to keep our city thriving.
Its employees are made up Of one
of the most intelligent, brilliant
classes of people to be found any
where. Their interests are with the
Great Southern Lumber Company
and Bogalusa, and in casting their
votes they most invariably center
on the candidate or the measure
which they think best fitted for the
protection and encouragement of
the interests of their Company and
their town. On these things the
live brains Of Bosalusa citizenship
needs no coaching, and personally |
would not give three hurrahs in
Hades for person that would not
be thus loyal to his Company and
his town.
The Great Southern Lumber Com
pany are not in politics; they are in
the sawmill business. And the
personnel of the firm is composed of
one of the most hieh-toned classes
of gentlemen to be found anywhere.
All they want is what is just and
equitable. They are not telling their
employees how to vote; they know
they have an intelligent class of
people working for them. They
know they are loyal and they ap.
preciate their loyalty, and they also
know that with such an organization
with them their interests will be
safeguarded and protected wherever
possible, and they don't have to ask
that such be done, either.
Words at my command are simply
inadequate to express as forcibly as
would wish my utter contempt for
person who would thus circulate
such malicious reports, which are a
dire reflection on the intelligence on
any community that would not rise
up in force against them. When we
hear such, let's nail il right there as
a fabrication. Let's 20 to some
trouble, if necessary, to find out the
candidates and their friends manu-
