The Republican National Commit.
tee ordered n reorganization of the Re
publican Party of Georgia. where
Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, the
is identified with the citizens Of color
holds sway. Why should reorganlza
ton OF the Republican Party no de
mandcd In the rock.ribbcd Democrat.
ic State of Georgia? Do the Republi.
cans realize that the great body OF
Republican voters in this country aro
entitled to representation inside Of
the Republican Party or is 1t thero
intention to deny this body represcn-
tation?
The white men Of Georgia, who con
stitntc the disaffectcd element Of the
Democratic Party arc not Republi.
cans and with their present ideas and
notions cnnnot be. They will eventual
ly prove to be as much handicap
to the Republican leaders as they
now seem to be to the Democratic
ones.
|: You cannot mix oil and water. You
cunnot bring about absolute cohesion
between Democratic and a Repub,t.
can organization. The reason for this
Is that the principles of each are an:
tasonistic to each other. When the
Republican Party sells out it's funda-
mental principles for "mcss Of not.
tagc," 1t Is undermining the Party it
self and this action will lead eventual
y to the dissolution of the great or
snnization itself.
The recent victory was brought
mout by combination OF all parties
hut there Is no need of sacrificing
uarty principles in order TO retain
this support. We can see no reason
why Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson ana
his friends having fairly and squarely
carried Georgia in the Republican
primaries or party conventions should
not be permitted to retain the advan,
age he has gained until another "show
down" before the people is forth-com.
Ing. He has the right Of way for four
long years and lie should be permitted
10 retain it, the bowling of the Negro
hatcrs to the contrary notwithstand-
ing.
1t remained to be seen whether that
great statesman now occupying the
White House will set his face "like
flint against these trouble breeders.
Can he accord equal and exact Justice
t" the colorcd men, who have so ably
managed the campaign in Georgia
and who are only demanding the
same recognition accorded to othe,
Republican organizations in other
States, North and South, which went
against Harding and Coolidge and
which cast their votes for the nomi.
nees of the Democratic Party? We
shall sec what we shall see.

lister of Reconstruction, this morning
a proposal to rebuild with German
labor twelve destroyed villages of the
Somme district. NJ. Loucheur invited
his visitors to meet him again Mon
day next by which time he will have
an opportunity of discussing the sug
sestion with his colleagues in the
Government.
The German syndicate which called
had made preliminary investigation
of the problem some months ago in
collaboration with the leaders of the
Labor Federation and on Sunday they
submitted to the Federation concrete
proposals which, it is stated. met the
| Federation'S requirements as to how
G erman labor could be employed in
| the red zone, where the destruc-
! tion Of property was SO complete that
the task of rebuilding has been left
till now uninterrupted. To the con-
ference delegates from among the
] people of the Somme district were
invited and a majority of those from
villages in question decided that if
the Government approved they would
take advantage of the offer
| The whole of the rebuil, .:i'r is to be
done by German builders wI.l Ger

but the people whose houses a. 3e
built will be able to choose the.r own
architects and dictate the style i'll
which they wish their property re-
ouiit. AS the proposal is being made
axperimentally buildings will be
charged for at cost price and credited
to the indemnity account. All the vii
lages are within a twenty-mile zone
and the German syndicate states that
With the $500 Workmen they would
import they could finish the job in a
years time.
TO this plan there ~ill possibly be
some opposition, but it will certainly
be less in the country than it was q
year ago when feeling was strong
against allowing Germans to partici-
pate in reconstruction. NJ. Loucheur
himself has admitted that if condi-
tions can be arranged so that Ger
man labor will not be in opposition
to French labor he will offer no OBJ
i. lection.
1t is understood that the German
workmen will be paid in marks on
the same scale as in Germany, and
will he fed and hOuSed hy the con
tractors while the work is in progress

experiment carried through success
