The crowds were out to burn the

complete their destruction. The fire

GENfoR SENATOR SPILLED THE
BEANS BY LETTING HIS NAME
REMAIN

Atlanta, March 26.-Thomas e. Wat
son has announced himself a candi.
date for Presidential nomination in
the Georgia primary on April 20.
There was no solicitation of sig
natures to a petition, no 'presenta-
tion" OF Watsons name by numerous
enthusiastic citizens" or any Of that
sort of thing. Watson just phoned
Ben Blackburn in Atlanta and in
etructed him to instruct Judge Jim
Flynt to put his name on, and that's
all there is to it--so far as getting
on the ticket Is concerned.
There Isl though. very great deal
more to it so far as the general poll.
tical situation goes. It spells another
break between the sorrel-top sage of
McDuffie and Marse Hoke. 1t comes
somewhat In nature Of surprise, in
view of the fact that the report was
circulated here yesterday afternoon
that Watson was coming to Atlanta
last night for conference with Tom
Hardwick to go over the Hoke Smith
race and the pulling down of Jim
Reed Watson didn't come. and his an.
nouncement broke this afternoon.
Smiths Announcement Spills Beans.
It is further interesting in view OF
the fact that-though there has never
been any denial or doubt Of the for
nation of the big triurnvirate some
months ago when Hardwick sat in a |
seat in the Senate, beside Hoke Smith
and saw as well as heard him deliver
the goods when Hokc voted, and 1t
then became known that the lineup
was no opposition for Hoke for the
Senate, but support by both Watson
and Hardwick, and that Hardwick
would be groomed for Governor, with
the support of Watson and Hoke.

ESSEX ALMOST DOUBLES
LIGHT CAR ENDURANCE
Essex Has Performed Like the Costest Fine Cars....
It's World endurance Record Has Never Been Rivaled

You will hardly dare use it's verca-
pacity of power. But you do want the
ability and dependability it gives. 1t
means no strain on motor or other me-
chanism. 1t means better, more dur
able, lasting car.
And Essex is easy to operate. Driv-
ing does not fatigue. It's instant re-
sponse to the lightest touch and its
smooth, restful comfort in motion ac-
count for this.
That is another reason why SO many
Women are Essex owners. And hey
appreciate its safety, too. Its controls
are simple and instantaneous 1t
makes fast time with security, in diff
cult traffic.

The most important thing that Essex
has proved is that weight and size are
no longer necessary to finest ear quality
All concede average ability in any
modern car
So it was to prove ability far beyond
what any light car ever has shown that
Essex made its famous endurance tests.
It's 3037 miles III 30 hours is a world rs
endurance record. The test was off
cial. Supervisors of the A. A. A. Ger.

Such Endurance as You
Want in Your Car

Never before was a car driven at top
speed for 80 hours. The grind was
more severe than years of road use
Yet at the end the Essex showed no
measurable wear.
What ear, the Essex size and weight,
can even attain mile-a-minute speed
much less keep it up for 80 hours?
These results were decisive. They
proved Essex not only the supreme per
former of the light ear field They
showed that with its advantages of
moderate price and economy it com
bineS such endurance and dependable
ity as few large high priced ears offer.
Light Car Economy and
BIG Car Performance
Greater size could add nothing to Es-
sex. 1t has the qualities which weight
and size are built to give-riding com
fort. solidncss. distinction and smooth.
quiet pace. In addition it has fuel, oil
and tire economy. And its durability
means freedom from repair costs and
positive dependable transportation.
Other ears its size and weight cost as
much. But none has ever equalled
what ii has done.

Essex Wins On Quality
Minus Useless Weight

Essex won recognition on the finest
quality without useless weight and size.
For that issue is uppermost today
You'll take pride in your Essex from
the first. Its smartness, its rich fit
ings and finishings, its quiet luxury and
superior performance give it distinc
ton everywhere. And time and use
will increase your esteem and respect
for it. You will come to rely absolute
ly on its dependability. You will eX-
pect and find it always ready for any
demands you may make,
These are the reasons why Essex set
a worlds sales record in its first year
And orders now are so far ahead it is
certain that even that unIivaled mark
will be surpassed this year.
Thousands realizing this are placing
their orders now We advise that you
do likewise, else YOU may be disap-
pointed in delivery.
