WHAT GEORGIA PRESS IS SAYING
ABOUT HOOVER AND COMMITTEE

Tested pretty clear alignment. He
says the country has already passed
on the peace treaty, and by that very
expression places himself. Many
other vital things bob up in the pro-
gram Of a man who is about to be
dshered into such responsibilities,
but none Of them are half so large
as are the doses" the politicians
have. When Hoover takes any of
these doses he will be a different
man. His expression of views will
not have such sincere ring in them.
We love to stick to party. We
would love to have leader whose
past party alignment will add to his
good qualifications, but should past
party affiliations decide the whole
thing? Hoover may have in times
past voted republican ticket. Does
that bar him? Many a good man has
changed his views-and many a party
principle has been discarded for
another.
Georgia politicians are already de-
cided they want to kick Hoover clear
out Of it. And in other states the pol
ltlcians will strive to put him out.
That is matter for the people.-Cor-
dele Dispatch.

SHALL HOOVER'S NAME GO ON
THE GEORGIA BALLOT

The undercurrent of events hay
ing to do with the progress of Mr..
Herbert Hoover's candidacy for pres
ldent, as it touches Georgia affairs.
is amusing
Great stress is laid upon the vital
necessity Of Mr.. Hoover declaring
himself democrat-with a big 'D"
his name shall be presented
to Georgians for consideration in a
preferential primary; whereas, from
another source comes bold insist
ence that nothing of the sort is nee
essary; that Mr. Hoover, like the
wind that bloweth where it listeth and
that no man knoweth whence il COM
eth or whittier it goeth, should be per-
mltted to run without tag, label or
visible sign Of party affiliation-if he
wishes to.
Just what the various parties to this
controversy are aiming at, really, is
not particularly difficult of discov-
cry, The rank and file of Georgia
voters possibly are we'll enough aware
OF what is going on, as this merry
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-02-26

war wakes warmer and warmer and
the partisan captains on either side
unlimber their big guns. And if they
do not, there is ample and sufficient
time ahead for them to find out.
Suppose, however, that Mr.. Hoover
should emerge from the solemnity of
the silence that heretofore has sur
rounded him in respect of specific par
ty affiliation and declare himself
democrat, with big cd" and all.
What then
Could any combination of political
blgWigs and wiseguys tell what on
earth, if anything, he meant by that?
Waht is a democrat NOWADAYS?
Is ne a Wilson man or an anti-Wil-
son man? Is he a champion of the
justly celebrated League o. Nations.
or does he hold that thing in horror?
Is his name Thomas Marshall, of In
diana, or Hoke Smith, of Georgia, or
Clark Howell, or what?
Doesn't Mr.. Thomas E. Watson
hold himself to be democrat? We
have admitted him into many prima-
ries here in Georgia-and the last
time we framed up a delegation to a
national democratic convention, with
a big "D", we named him one of the
delegates at large. Would the COM
mittee put Mr.. Watson's name on the
Georgia preferential ballot this year,
if 100 of his friends should petition
that such thing be done? You bet
the committee would. And why not?
There are rumblings, not to say
grumblings, that this very thing may
come to pass. And if it should, do
you think he would create as much
excitement around and about as, say,
Mr.. Hoover?
The Georgian thinks this is going
to be something of wide-open polit-
ical year in Georgia. Party labels
and tags will not amount to much. If
Mr.. Hoover's friends insist that his
name go on the ballot, why not?
Anyway, The Georgian will make
bold to advise that the best and sur
est way to stir up a real Hoover
sentiment in Georgia is to under
take to keep his name off the prefer
entail ballot. And the stirring up of
a rampant Hoover sentiment in Geor-
gia is precisely what those who are
seeking to keep his name off the bal
lot do not wish to bring about.-At-
lanta Georgian.

PINNING A MEDAL ON
THE BAKER

1t is doubtful if that once famous
expression, Coffee And" would ever
have been if it weren't for our friend
the baker. For said baker is the gent
who makes the "and' portion of the
expression.
Who's the fellow who amuses the
kiddies with his nice white cap and
apron, and with his four-besmeared
face?
Who causes sweet odors to flow
forth from hot ovens?
Who comes to the rescue when
friend wife has neglected to bake
your daily bread?
Who holds a soft spot in the heart
of every cookie-loving tot?
While the sweet cookie factory
man is putting up the inside of a
raised doughnut, he is also putting
up a share of happiness throughout
his neighborhood. We all love to
eat, Ell?

TNEXCUsABLE COURSE, "

In a cogent and, we venture to
predict, history editorial,
which is reproduced elsewhere in
Tuesdays Journal, the Americas
Tlmes-Recorder comes squarelv out
for Hoover as the democratic presi-
dental nominee, and denounces the
attempt to keep the democrats Of
Georgia from declaring their will con-
corning him in the April primary.
Likewise the Athens Banner, a pat
tern of party fealty, scores as 'inex-
cusable" the course which the sub
committee has taken, a course, it de-
clares, (which will not be tolerated
by the loyal democrats of this state. +"
The Banner points out the one great
purpose Of the approaching primary
when it says: "This election has been
called in order that the democrats
may have an opportunity of express
ing their preference for the man to
represent them in the highest office of
the nation, and there should be no
haggling over technicalities." In
truth there is nothing more danger
Gus to the party and the country at
this grave crisis of their affairs, and
nothing of which the people are more
impatient, than the placing of politi-
cal technicalities above the great
principles which alone afford safe
guidance in these difficult days.-At-

cannot hope to make itself bigger
than principles. Principles belong to
any party which sees fit to adopt and
