....There is but onhe issue in the contest being waged for the
Democratic nomination for Governor.
That is whether or not you want a Governor who sees in :
. taxes just money to be spent among the members of the political
| 'machine that is today responsible for Georgia’s pitiful lack B e
OLIL 08 ppl‘:ljc improvements and for the waste and extravagance that

" Get'this firmly fixed in your mind:" *- * &°© B g
Holder is tied up with J. J. Brown in the management of the
mostdangerous political machine that has ever wasted the money
of a Southern State.
Carswell is a machine politician of the same general type as
Holder. He is the candidate of politicians who are supporting
him and financing his campaign because they know they can con
trol him if he is elected.
Wood is depending for his support entirely upon his secret
order affiliations: ' Ask the people who know him best}-wh]r ‘he is
running and they will tell you that he has never had the slightest
idea that he would: be a factor in the race.
- Dr Hardman is asking for your ‘vote solely upon his merits.
He will go into office with no pledges and no ovligations. No po
litical gangsters will be found hiding under his coat tail. He is
paying his own expenses with money he made in honest business.
And we tell you in all sincerity that HE IS GOING: TO BE
ELECTED. The people of ‘the'state have taken time to think.
And the man who thinks is for Hardman.

Iford prices are low because of Ford
resources, facilities and advance meth
ods of production. But no matter how
low the price, the quality is always
uniformly high.
And the big thing to remember in
buying a Ford car is that you cannot
buy more all-around satisfaction —no
matter how much money you spend.
