Georgia Editors
Defy Gov. Talmadge

to be intimidated by Governor Tai
madge. A Georgia editor said that
the newspapers of his state would
continue to print the news regard
less of the governors threats to
stifle them with opposition.
In a talk prepared for delivery

sorry to say, we have governor
Eugene Talmadge) who initiates
the late Huey Long in many ways.
For that he threatens to start
a competing paper =.
Fortunately, the editors of
Georgia seem to feel as the editor
of the st. Louis Post-Dispatch did
when he faced Jail sentence for
contempt because he dared criti-
cize a judge.
He then published an editorial,
re-affirming his position and end
ing with these words:
1.-THE Post-Dispatch will not be
inundated.
THE Post-Dispatch will not be
shackled.
THE Post-Dispatch will not be
gagged"

When Mrs. Davis, long assistant
manager was elevated to the po-

she found it at its lowest ebb since
its founding.
Mrs. Davis, long popular in So

today, The Angelus has moved
back into it's former position, an
institution that shares your sor-
row in the darkest moments of life.
There was a time when our
Board of Directors were fearful
of our future, but today the An
gelus is proud of its position
among our own who come to us
with an assurance that we person
ally share their grief. With such
wide acquaintance, it is but ma
tural that we should share this
sorrow" said Manager Mrs. Davis.
