from the Sedan down to the small
Baby Grand, covers practically every
use that a motor car can be put to.

comment but owing to war condi-
tions was not pushed very strenu-

chasers until better times were in
sight. These times are here now and

Whether il Is attributed to hoIshev-

a.lccal demonstration or one which it
is intended 20 spread throughout the

cies must exert every possible effort

lle fact that there have been exploit

A DEPLCRAsLE RECORD,

IN spite Of the fact that the claim
has been made that the lynchings
which have taken place in Georgia
do'not represent the sentiment Of the
people of that commonwealth. but on
the contrary only a small part OF
them, it does not appear that any
very strenuous efforts are being made
by the larger number to remove the
unenviablc reputation which that state
holds.
During all the time that the asser-
tons have been made that Georgia
really stands for law and order it has
stood at the top Of the list OF states
in regard TO the number Of lynchings.
The sentiment as expressed IN deeds
thus soas contrary to that expressed
in words. It continues to tolerate, and
maintain a commanding lead over
other states in such liberation. just
