SLATON'S ADDRESS
ATTRACTS ATTENTION
FORMER GOVERNOR MAKES A
PLEA FOR CONSERVATIVE
GOVERNMENT.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Former Govern
or John M. Slaton's address before
the Atlanta Retail Merchants Asso-
citation at its recent annual meeting
here has attracted great deal of at
tention throughout the state-particu-
larry that portion OF the address deal
ing with the status OF the public debt
and taxation in Georgia. The opinions
of the former governor in matters OF
this sort carry a great deal of weight
throughout the state
1t is generally conceded that Mr.
Slaton probably is better acquainted
than any other Georgian with the pre-
else status OF Georgia's affairs-for
the past quarter of a century. He serv-
ed in the Legislature 10 years-twc
terms OF which he was speaker of the
house and two terms president of the
senate In addition to that he served
short unexpired term as governor
and one full term. His administrations
were conspicuous for business ability
and efficiency.
Governor Slaton's plan is for sta.
