FOE OF UNIONS
ENTERS RACE FOR
GOVERNOR OF GA.
Walter R. Brown, Allan
ia Attorney, Pays
Entrance Fee

ATLANTA, Aug. 16.-Another
candidate has entered the race for
governor, the time limit for which
expired at noon Aug 15. 1t is Wal
ter R. Brown, lawyer, and one of
the best known residents of Atlanta,
having lived on the Brown Mill road,
just out of Atlanta, for forty years,
at 'New Canaan" one of Georgia's s
landmarks.
Mr.. Brown has the support of
former Governor "Little Joe" Brown,
and will run on a definite anti-labor
union platform. AS soon as his en-
trance fee was paid, Mr.. Brown gave
out the following statement:
sit is true that l have qualified as
a candidate for governor. 1t is un-
necessary for me to say more at this
time than my campaign will be based
on the proposition that the consti-
tuition of Georgia and her laws shall
be supreme. | shall take the posi-
ton that no one man and no class
of men shall subordinate and trample
under foot either at will.
''The state of Georgia is confront
ed with a condition today of great
moment. The challenge has been
made to her citizens and thus far
neither of the candidates for gov
ernor have seen fit to accept the chal-
lenge, which l do with absolute conf
dence that the voters are ready for
this one question to be settled.
"In the very near future l shall go
into details and acquaint the people
with my position"
Mr.. Browns decision to enter the
race for governor was reached after
a conference with Joseph M. Brown.
He says he expects to have wide
spread support from many of the cit
izens of Georgia, who have been
wearied of unsettled conditions due
to the epidemic of labor strikes
throughout the country.
Mr.. Brown is prominent member
of the Baptist church and was one
of the largest contributors in Geor-
gia to the recent Baptist SIS, 900
campaign. On the first call he gave
$4,000. He was born and reared in
Forsyth county.

mated at the September 8 primary

COMMONWEALTH OF

THE UNITED STATES, IS:

THE UNITED STATES, IS:
On this 10th day of August, in
the year of our lord 1920, personally
appeared before me, a Notary Public,
duly authorized to administer oaths,
Daddy Wheat, also known as Triti-
cum Vulgare, who, being duly sworn
according to law, doth depose and say
that he hurls back to the very teeth
of the malefactors and prevaricators
his emphatic denial that he is in any
way responsible for the present high
cost of living.
Deponent with great warmth and
feeling declares that it requires no
greater effort to produce him now
than formerly; that it takes no more
of him than formerly to make bar
rel of flour; that he is just as nutri-
tious as ever and is just as anxious
and willing to feed the sons of men
as ever.
Deponent further AYERS that this
act is voluntary and made of his
own free will with view to assisting
4he people in fixing the blame for the
terrible high cost of living upon the
culprits really responsible by the
process of elimination, and in my
presence attaches his signature
thereto. DADDY WHEAT.

TUESDAYS

There is being brought to a close
one of the most peculiar campaigns in
the annals of American politics. New
er before has a contest. when a Pres
ident and Vice-President of the United
States were to be elected, been allow
ed to go along SO quietly with SO little
effort and SO few meetings. 1t may
be that the Democrats are convinced
that the people are determined to have
a change and cannot see the folly of
wasting their efforts, while this atti-
tude makes it unnecessary for the
republicans to hustle.
Public sentiment has decreed that
Harding and Coolidge will win next
Tuesday, and this is about as certain
as anything that has not already hap
pened. Harding's hands as President
will be tied unless he has a Congress
of his political faith, therefore it is
necessary that the Second District re-
turn the best Congressman she has
ever had, our Hon. Isaac Bacha-
rach.
Malcolm B. Woodruff is a popular
choice for Sheriff and he will receive
a tremendous majority. Assemblymen
William A. Blair and Joseph A. Corio
viii also be returned by big plurali-
ties. Anthony L. opposite and Arnold
DeBrier will receive almost a unani-
nous vote for COroners.
In Pleasantville the situation for the
local ticket is not what it should be.
Republicans made their ticket in an
open primary, and the spirit of the
law demands a full support of the
ticket by all members of the party.
The full ticket as made appears at the
head of this column. and as a Repub-
can paper we commend it to our read
ers, with the earnest hope that every
mar thereon, from top to bottom, will
receive the hearty support of all the
members of the party.

TOXIC, June 20.-The financial de-

the closing OF the money market,
which has cut the manufacturers off
from their supply OF funds.
Scarcity of exchange funds and the
sudden advance of exchange rates
consequent upon the depreciation of
silver quotations, have helped to kill
the export trade. Where the fall OF

prevail of the Council. 1t was that
presented by Sheriff Thomas s. Dove
for the payment of deputies at the
polls during the elections. Reference
to the law in the matter led the
Council to the decision that they were
not responsible for the expenses of
stationing deputies at the polls, and
the bill was rejected.
An order was presented by Alder
man Smith and passed by the Coun-
ell that all property owners on streets
on which improvements are contem-
plated be notified that after the i'm
provements are made they will not
be permitted, for a period of three
years. to open the surface of the new
street for the purpose of laying new
gas, water, or sewer pipes. The. or
der was regarded by the Council as
being important in view of the fact
that on previous occasions it has
happened that only few weeks after
street improvements have been made
the property owners have decided TO
install new pipes, thereby making it
necessary TO mar the new surfacing.

had such wonderful opportunity, ard
the oarsmen regard themselves as for

Not only in the Navy but among those
whose interest is general 1t is re-
garded as specially fitting things
that the youths of the Naval service
should be their country's representa-
tives in aquatic sports.
Decide College HOnors. Too
That college honors of the year will
be decided in this race rests upon the
fact that the Naval Academy and
Syracuse have defeated every other
college crew and have made an even
break in their two meetings witt each
other. AS long as 1t appeared thai
there would be no further meeting,
the Naval Academy claimed the adj
vantage in view OF the fact that its
crew won in the later race and by a
bigger margin, but ii is now conceded
tina 1.-THE third race will carry the de-
cision. Not often has there boon so
exciting a finish to a college racing
season, but this phase is oyershadow-
ed by the fact that the meeting will
decide as to the representative crew
of America.
The remarkably regularity of the
Navy oarsmen as to weight, height
and age is apparent The tallest oars
men, Jordan and Sanborn, are two
inches over six feet, and the shortest,
Gallagher, one inch under. The heay-
lest, Sanborn. weighs 1S2 pounds, and
Jacomini and Jordan are tied at IT'S
for lightweight honors. Graves, the
captain of the crew, is %, while the
others range from 20 to %. The ply
steal symmetry tends to evenness OF
stroke and perfect rhythm, always a
great feature of Glendon coached
crews
Coach Glendon does not hesitate to
say that in all the is years he has had
charge of rowing at the Academy he
has never had such satisfactory condi-
lions, and added that his charges were
in splendid shape and ready to give
the best that is in them.

Graduation day arrives for Mary

The pay of teachers should be
at least equal to that of callings

must receive as much pay as
those of nearby States.
The final scenes depict the life of
the young teacher in her school viii

SERVICE STAR LEGION
TO INCORPORATE
IN MARYLAND

Through the activities of COM
mittee of Baltimore women, Mary
land has been selected as the place
for the incorporation and Baltimore
the headquarters of the Service Star
Legion, formerly the War Mothers
of America
This committee, consisting of Mrs.
J. Barry Mahool, Mrs. T. Parkin
Scott and Mrs. Henry F. Baker, OBJ
tanned the consent of all the other
Sttae units of / the organization
through a plebiscite just completed.
No time was lost The incorpora-
ton papers and copy of the charter
were filed Thursday with the State
Tax Commission by Oregon Milton
Dennis, who has volunteered his serv-
ices as legal counsellor to the or
ganization.
City As Headquarters
Incorporation has been decided on
at the convention held in Baltimore
last year, and Immediately afterward
the leaders launched campaign to-
have the legion incorporated there
and to have Baltimore made the head
quarters The nearness of that city
to Washington and to the other big
cities of the Eastern section of the.
country were advantages pointed to
as favoring Baltimore.
The committee decided not to wait
until the converting of this years
convention, to be held in Des Moines,
Iowa. Securing consent of the other
State branches in advance of the con-
vention, however, proved a difficult
problem. The committee finally de-
cided on a plebiscite, which was sent
broadcast throughout the country and
in which the superior advantages of
incorporation there were emphasized.
Purposes And objects Advanced
The chief purposes and objects as
set forth in the charter are as fol-
lows:

can ideals and traditions.

principles of justice, freedom and
democracy.
To cooperate in all civic and
patriotic work conducted in
every community in the United
States.
To foster a spirit of sisterhood,
comradeship and democracy
among women.
To promote and guard the well
fare of the soldiers. sailors and
Marines who were engaged in the
World War and to lend aid and
comfort to their families.
To preserve and cherish the men,
DRY of the men and women who
sacrificed their lives for the lib
erty of the world.
To promote. erect and maintain
local, State and national men,
.orials TO the men and women of
the World War.
The incorporation in Baltimore and
the charter will be submitted for
mally to the Des Moines gathering
for ratification and approval. There
is believed TO be no chance of both
failing of approval.
