CALLING up WASHINGTON
Iican enemy

A great many sins against world
progress and the future safety of civ
ilized nations against war are being
committed hereabouts in the name Of
the Father of our country. He has SO
often been misused and miscontrued
and falsely presented in connection
with the league covenant and the Yer
sailles peace treaty that it is as if he
had come back in spirit to present this
astoundingly practical reminder so ap-
plicable to the present situation:
The alternate domination CT one
faction over another, sharpened
by the spirit of revenge natural
to party dissenSion, is itself
frightful despotism. George
Washington.
He said this about the time he gave
the famous warning against foreign
glements-no far enough re-
moved from the latter statement that
any very great distinction as to pul-
pose could be made. He was warning
against the very thing that is now
threatening the liberties for which
America stands.
Our first great statesman and leader
has in truth had little influence in
the last year in the law-making body
of the United States. His fatlerly
advice has been abandoned for n
cheapened partisan political program,
"sharpened by the spirit of revenge
natural to party dissensionS' at a time
when the safety of civilization is so
unstable.
George Washington would be think
ing like most of us are today if he
were here to have part in reconstruc
ting the world. He would love to say
in unison with the editor of the Sa-
vannah Morning News these words:

OF history as hollow and una

faith Of hundred million Ameri-
cans, with undivided mind and
heart supporting, defending and
perfecting the kind of liberty
which the fathers ordained as a
perpetual blessing to all who
dwell beneath the aegis of the re.
public. Any political party
which haggles over the
details of the covenant by
which the war weary nations of
the world seek to bring eternal
peace to mankind, strikes blow
at the very liberty for which
America stands, and the specious
plea of virile patriotic national
ism will not save such a party
from the wrath of the people,
reused as never before to the ne
cessity, for our own sake and for
American ideals upon civilization
everywhere.

THE TEACHERS ANSWER.

IIoke Smith has through almost ali
his career in politics in Georgia en-
joyed the enthusiastic support Of the
teachers of the state, Today this is
not the case. Likewise he has enjoy
ed the liberal support of pastors,
preachers and reformers throughout
the state
The teachers, if they are anything IN
the world are loyal, patriotic, and us
ually easy to endorse governmental
action of tremendous import such as
that with which this country has been
faced during the prosecution of the
war and the era Of reconstruction
Georgia teachers without references
10 Hoke Smith or the part he has
PLAYED in blocking the peace treaty
and every democratic move toward
reconstruction, endorsed the league
covenant in Macon Saturday without
reservations. The resolution which
IS reported as having passed by a
large majority, was as follows:
Resolved that the members of
the Georgia Educational Associa-
tion endorse the passage of the
league of Nations without reser-
vations."
Out of the depths of sincere edi-
torial utterance in the Macon Tele.
graph we get another expression
which backs up the Georgia teachers
with the simplest, but finest sort Of
reasoning. 1t carries their real reason
for the stand. II reveals their just
cause for parting with Hoke Smith,
Read it--you can understand this
language;
Il am in favor of the League of
Nations as it is written, holding
that it is only moral agreement
between the nations of the world
that they will use their best en-
deavors to prevent future wars.
