GE0RGIANS
WANT DORSEY
|MPEACHED
Say He Has "Besmirched
Georgia's Fair Name"

Atlanta, Ga, May 2i.--Since his
scathing denunciation of conditions in
Georgia, Governor Dorsey has been
made the target of attacks from all
over the state. Some of those who
deny the truth of his charges go so
far to say that unless he can prove
them, the governor should be i'm
peached, as he has "besmirched
Georgia's fair name"
Attacked By President Of Senate
Especially bitter was the denuncia-
ton by Sam T. Olive, president of the
Senate, who is second in authority to
Governor Dorsey. Olive has issued
statement in which he denounced the
governor for making the charges, de-
clared directly that some of them are
untrue, and refers to others as dirty
insinuations." The entire report of
the governor was called a "melange
of epistolary fabrication" Mr.. Olive
demanded that the charges be proved
and that definite allegations, with
names and places, be given.
Mr.. Olive ridiculed the various
remedies proposed by Governor Dor
sey and stated this incomprehensible
act of the governor will cost the
farmers hundreds of thousands, if not
millions, of dollars. The negro is
emotional and there is no conception
of what notions he might honestly get
from such visionary statements as
those made by the governor. The
race problem lives largely in the news
papers,"
Threaten impeachment
Direct threats of impeachment come
from an organization in Macon known
as the Guardians of Liberty" who are
aroused to fever heat by the governors
much discussed pamphlet Demand
ing that Governor Hugh M. Dorsey
substantiate the charges made in his
pamphlet recently issued and sent to
different parts of the country and ask
ing that he issue another pamphlet
designating the county and giving the
names of the persons who committed
the "l35 crimes against farmhands,"
which the Governor only identified,
Number So-and-So," the Macon
Guardians of Liberty have adopted
and published a resolution in which
Governor Dorsey is informed that if
he does not prove what he says to be
true or retract his statements, inn
peachment proceedings will be started
against him.

When these words of coincidence
came to him. Thomas was in bed sui
fering the throes of agony caused by
a broken right jaw at the hands of the
famous "oral artists" on or about
April 4. He was suffering such in
tense pain as to be unable to go to the
gilded parlors, the >. flashing electric
signs about which had iured him to his
doom. So his wife telephoned and
asked to have a doctor visit him. His
pleas for aid went unheard. The heart
less wreckers were too busy with other
victims.
For six weeks Thomas spent sleep
less nights and agonizing days in vain
efforts to gain relief AT the height of
a period of financial stringency that
was gripping the entire nation he was
compelled to leave his work and nurse
a swollen jaw.
flndlly, after spending over 9oOU
with various doctors, he secured the
services of a specialist, and is now on
the road to recovery.
Dentists Disclaim Knowledge
In an interview the painless den

Thomas or his mistreatment, although
their victim had foresight enough to
retain receipts obtained from them in
payment for their fruitless but painful
work.
Thomas intends TO bring suit.

who are responsible Tor the unlaw-
ful acts IN question, and,
Whereas, This hcinous crime is to
an alarming degree causing great ap-
prehension fqr the lives and property
OF the citizens Of Chicago thus rem
dcring. especially IN certain localities,
the peaceful occupation OF homes and
business OF the citizens residing
therein hazardous and unsafe, and,
Whereas, The apparent ease with
which the culprits have been able 10
execute their criminal acts OF bombing
without detection or apprehension has
caused them to feel a certain sense
Of security in the commission OF these
crimes.
Therefore Be II Resolved, That the
CITY Council Committee on Finance
be and it is hereby directed to set up
as a separate appropriation the sum
OF S25.000 to be expended by the Cen
eral Superintendent of the Police in
thorough investigation OF the crime OF

Chicago
Be 1t Further Resolved, That the
General Superintendent OF Police be

preparation in such manner as he may

OF these crimes be located and appre-
hendcd and that the evidence thus OBJ
tained be delivered to the States At

individuals, organizations. or societies,

sponsible for the cowardly crime OF

Ford CHALLENGED.
BY JEWISH BODIES
They Offer to Stand Expense of
Probe Into His Charges
Against Race.

DETROIT. Mich, Feb. 16.-Three
Jewish organizations OF Detroit have
challenged Henry Ford to stand in
vestigation of his .narge that inter-
national Jewish banking groups are
guilty of promoting war for personal
gain, and that the Jews are respon-
sible for other "plots." The organi-
zations. Furthermore, threw down the
gauntlet to Ford's declaration that he
is not anti-semitic. The Jewish or
ganizations offer to stand the expense
of such an Investigation and to allow
Ford to pick the investigators from
the United States Secret Service.
Whether or not Ford will accept the
challenge was not intimated today.
The Jewish organizations which
made the challenge in a public state
ment are: Congregation Beth Ell,
Congregation Sha-Arey and Pisgah
Lodge, B'Nai Birth. The statement
says, in part:
There are those who will say that
this arch mischief-maker does not
know what Is being published in his
own organ (The Dearborn Indepcnd-
ent). Perhaps he does not Perhaps,
| II he were forced to take the witness
stand he would say, as he did when
he sought the courts to prove that he
was not an anarchist, that If It was
in the book it was all right But IL
Mr.. Ford is not the vicarious dupe Of
group OF anti-semitic and fawning
satellites then he will order his vi
cious anti-semitic campaign to cease !;
he will accept the challenge OF the
Iah 70 40, tL
expense of an investigation by Gov
ernment officials and Secret Service
men, to be selected by Mr.. Ford him
self. into charges of Jewish interna-
tional intrigue, of Jewish financing of
wars. of Jewish control of the prcss.
Of Jewish control of governments and
other equally crazy notions; he Will
play the game as a true American, in
a spirit of sportsmanship and In a
spirit of good citizenship. We appeal
to the fair-mindedness OF the Ameri-
can public.
"Mr. Fords statement to the Amer
lean public, issued through the press
OF the nation on Saturday. February
10. is an INSULT to Jew and gentle
alike. II is an admixture of sophistry
and sycophancy, concocted ostensiblv
to divert attention from the vicious
ness of his personal organ. His dec
laration that his persistent. mis-
chievous, calumnious defamation OF
the Jew was, after all, his way of
expressing his love for the Jew. is an
example OF hilarious stupidity unsur-
passed in public addresses. His
months of unrelentlng persecution
and unAmerican race and religious
disturbance find the pitifully fatuous
explanation that his desire is to
wake up the boob gentiles and get
them to display the same energy and
earnestness as the Jew.
"Mr. Ford's fallacious declaration
that we are not antl-semitic' must
contemplate on his part colossal
credulity on the part OF the AmerI-
can public. II Is made in the face Of
the despicable record that is being
written by his Dearborn Independ-
ent."
