AFTER FORTY YEARS.

For forty years the editor of THE
APPEAL has battled with pen and
tongue against the rising tide of race
prejudice, discrimination, injustice and
mob murder. .. y.
He has seen state governments and
national administrations quail and
tremble before the onrushing waves
of hellish hate. ....s
The so-called Christian church has
stood still and dumb before the bru-
talities of Goddess land.
Many contemporaries have given up
the fight for justice and equality, but
many yet live who will never yield to
the oppressor, and so long as there
are even dozen determined souls
who have sworn to do or die, the
fight will not be in vain.
The way is dark and the work is
made difficult by the foe within, but
victory will come. It can not be
that the present infamous conditions
will continue forever. Our children
and our children's children will reap
the benefits of our labors of today.
We are still unafraid We will con-
tinue the fight.

committee which will direct Repub-

fetal recognition of the Harding ad-

by a selected committee composed of
Republican leaders from all sections

The meeting, called by the Nation

purpose Of recognizing 1.-THE party
in Georgia on the basis of white con
troll and for the purpose Of har-
monizing fractional differences, was
marked by almost complete unani-
nifty action. Only at one period did
it appear that there might be an
effort to disrupt the program, and
this tendency was quickly cured.
1t was evident from the very open
ing of the meeting that the plan Of
action had been carefully worked out
The new state central committee
consists of 46 members, including the
three officers, who are j. L. Phillips
of Thomasville, chairman; Walter l.
johnson, of Columbus, vice chairman
and Charles Adamson, of Cedartown

was worked out by Clarence B. Miller

Of courage.
