A Georgia ‘iygtermelon in New York
is no wategmelon at all . unless it
weighs the thirty pound minimum, It
is cut in h;fies the short way. The
half is quartered, then the quarter
cut in half. ;{l'xls makes eight pieces
to the half, r sixteen in all, which
are idenucal; in shape and size. In
the average @ating quarters this pie-mxl
brings fiftedfi cents on the table. l(.i
is a total of two forty for the melon.
There is a iery wide difference be
tween the price paid the grower and
that paid by'the consumer. And this
price preveits many, nrany people
from eating watermelon, Georgians in
New York at the recent convention
noted this agd studied it.
e
Open warfare has been instituted
in the snulg Georgia tobacco area
between marketing associations and
tobacco com;panles and the results,
if they amo@t to what usually comes
to the fnrm"&', will be a broken, un
steady pric “for the crop. If the
far-mer mnieung associations will
stick, will i}nlntain a real business
organization—if the growers will put
their faith in them—then the fellow
who comes*o get the tobacco crop
for a song Will have to take a vaca
tion. We h"ive hopes of seeing the
cooperative . marketing system keep
the prices t"bat are paid by the con
sumer soméfibem within reach of the
producer.The farms of this county in
every prodfq(:t of the soil that goes
to market aé'e having to support great ‘
armies of qumission men, middle
men, gambl&-s. legitimate dealers, and
all sorts them—about ten times
too many. %is often is the real cause
of such wi& difference between the
price to th@producer and that to the
consumer. Tobacco is no exeeption.

NO KLAN BOUGHT VICTORY ]
Mr. McAdoo's klan-bought Geor- ‘
gia victory, when this is written, ‘
seems to have cost him the dem
ocratic nomination and possibly
the presidency of the TUnited
States.
Georgia delegates to the nation
al convention were looked on as
McAdoo’'s very gpwn-— as his
staunchest, closest allies, Not
even the California delegation out
ranked those from the Emprire
state as nearest to McAdoo, in the
minds of the convention dele
gates, /
When charged right and left
with being klansmen, National
Committeeman Jack Cohen enter
ed a vehement protest. He went
80 far as to deny that he, or as
far as he knew, any other mem
ber of the Georgia delegation, was
a member of the klan.,
And yet when it came to a show
down, the Georgia delegation,
with but two exceptions, voted
with the klan,
The nation is today drawing its
own conclusion. When the one op
portunity came for Georgia’s rep
_ resentatives to prove to the world
its anti-klan sympathies—if any
they possessed—it failed to grasp
it—Americus Times-Recorder.
No newspaper neighbor in'Georgla‘
may hope ot get by us with this kind
of rot. Mr. McAdoo's victory in Geor
gia was not a klan bought victory, It
was a straight-from-the-shoulder vic
tory at the hands of the upstanding
honest men and women of Georgia
who made their choice at the ballot
box unmolested by any outside power
or influence.
We protest in kindly spliit, but we
portest. Whoever writes such a thing
either is grossly ignorant of what
happened in the presidential prefer
‘ential primary in Georgia, or else he
is persistently, built in the warp and
woof, and hell-bent on misrepresenta
‘tion. The poorest sportsman in all the
iwm-ld is the beaten Underwood en
‘thusiast who will sit down and grind
rout this sort of stuff this late in the
day. It is a reflection on the manhood
and womanhood of Georgia represent.
ed in the thousands who made Mr.
McAdoo their preference.
Mr. McAdoo had no Georgia klan
bought victory. He had not the slight
est chance of winning in New York,
clse he would have done so. He made
one of the most remarkable political
fights that has ever been made in all
history. His forces remained with
him through a hundred convention
ballots without a wavering man or
woman, standing like a stone wall
through every storm, through every
manufactured convention scheme of
the opposition unshaken. And M.
McAdoo lost nothing by what Geor
gians did for him in New York. It was
;onc of the few occasions in which a
much stronger enemy had to clear
out hefore such enemy could hope
to get rid of McAdoo. His forces would
have been there still unbroken, we
are sure, had he requested it, had he
merely asked it. _ ‘
Nobody's fortunes rested on what
the klan did of fhiled to'de. It that is
claimed and admitted, then Mr. McA
doo and his forces won a victory in
the convention, for the report of the
platform committee was ~adopted.
"Phis was the i’n_aj_orii-}‘ report jof the
platform committee which did not
mention klan nor antiklan. Here is
what that portion of the platform says
—note how nearly like some portions
of the Constitution of the United
States it reads:
“The Democratic party reaffirms its
adherence and devotion to those car-
dinal principles contained in the con
stitution and the precepts upon which
our government is founded, that Con
gress shall make no laws respecting
the establishment of religion, or pro
hibiting the free exercise thereof, or
abridging the freedom of speech or
the press, or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble and to petition
the government for P redress of griev
ance‘: that the":hu‘f’ct: mid the state
shall be and remain separate, and that
no religious test shall ever be required
as to qualification to any office of
public trust under the United States.
These principles we pledge ourselves
ever to defend and maintain. We in
sist at all times upon obedlénce to the
'orderly procesges of the law and de
plore and condemn any effort to
arouse religious or racial dissension’
Mr. McAdoo's forces were for the
adoption of this plank. It was in spite
iof Al Smith and the anti-klan forces—-
in spite of the protesting Andrew Er
win, of Georgia, who got his picture
in the paper and some space around
the hall for a heroic march on the
shoulders of Rhode Island Clan ne
Giaelites to the tune of “Marching
Through Georgia.” It was the only
safe course the party could take. But
for the support given this refutation
of bhoth ku klux klan and Clan ne
Gael by. McAdoo's forces who were
not klansmen—never will be—this
party platform plank would have beeni
lost to a pack of wolves who had no
other aim than to destroy. ‘
That neither faction could step into
the party councils and direct the af
fairs of a convention was exactly what
should have been done by the party
leaders. They threw overboard the |
Clan ne Gael when they refused to
name the ku klux klan in the plat-‘
form. They threw the ku klux klan
out when they went into committee
and drafted the platform without klan
advice or support. They did what the
democracy of this nation wanted done
when they came back and offered 2
platform that gave meither faction vic
tory. That’s not foreign to the wish
of the Underwood poor gport who to
day will pe}sist in slinging mud. He
knows of the wisdom: of it.
“jt wasTERAE" choice’ which Geor
gians made when they voted to keep
the anti-klan plank out of the plat
form. It was a wise choice that the
whole convention made when it vot
ed to sustain the majority report.
That same course would have been
taken if every Georgian had known
'thut it would defeat McAdoo. As
it was, it only strengthened rcspeét
for his forices. Nobody but fanati
cal clan ne Gael forces counted the
convention decision unwise—éund
they knew better—they knew both
factions should have had the door
closed against them. It was closed
and Georgians helped to close it. Mr.
McAdoo helped to close it. He
would do so again, It didn’t cost
him the presidency. If it did, we are
just as sure as can be that he would
choose that course again, presiden
¢y or no presidency. It was right.
For our course, We make no apology.
It was our conviction then. it is
still go today.
And the people who believe as we
do about it—that neither religious
faction, no matter how heated the
controversy, should have to di with
the affairs of the state—will con
tinue to handle the affairs of the
state while these factions go on des
troying each other in a needless
combat.
