Rome, Qa., Aug. 7.—The Farmers' Union of Floyd county has gone on record as opposed to any drastic legis lation prohibiting automobiles from traveling on the public highways of the state. ' As a very sensible reason for op posing any severely restrictive measure the Floyd county union holds that no factor has been or will be so Important In the development of good roads as automobiles. The union realises that any bill that will prevent automobiles from running on the public highways of the. stdte—and they hold that meas ures now pending In the Georgia legis lature will have that effect practically— will seriously retard the good roads movement In the state. It Is understood that this Is the gen eral sentiment of the union all over the state, nnd the action of the Floyd coun ty union will probably be followed by a similar stand by all of the county organisations.

"The l members of the Farmers' for our present governor In the Inst campaign, and wo are still with the governor when we believe him to be right, but we are against him when we believe him to be wrong. Just as we are with any other man that we believe to be right, and opposed to him when we believe he is In error.

"The governor seems to hnve been misled Into the belief that to raise more cotton would cause the mllla to in crease their manufacturing capacity and thereby Increase the consumption of raw material.
