THE DALTON CITIZEN. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1920.
The Pages of 1921
Are Still Unwritten
What that gleaming white rec
ord has in store we cannot now
foretell, nor should we wish to
know.
With gratitude in our hearts for
the blessings that the old year has
brought; with hope in the promise
the New Year brings, we cannot
but face it with a feeling of joy
and gladness befitting the occa
sion.
May the unfulfilled hopes of
the Old Year find realization in
the New—this is our wish to you
and yours.

COLD MEDAL
Facts of Vital Interest to
Everybody in Georgia
Socialistic Scheme Worthy
of Lenine And Trotsky
The Municipal League of Georgia is
ostensibly an organization of towns
I tnd cities in Georgia. In reality the
eague consists of Marion M. Jac
James L. Key and John J. Eagan of!
Atlanta. About one hundred munid-
palities have been induced to lend
their names to the organization with-
out investigating the aims of its domi
nating spirit, or where the League
originated.
In one of the bulletins of the Muni
cipal League the following statement
appears:
“The League has no connection
with any organization outside of
Georgia.
From “Public Ownership,” the ofr
dal bulletin of the Public Ownership
League of America, for August, 1919,
Is copied the following:
“Atlanta and Georgia Organizing:
"A letter Jut received from Marion M.
Jackson, says:—*Wc are now in the midst
•f our flght here, both locally and for the
State. It is oar pnrpoee to organise both
In the city of Atlanta and the State, e
non-partisan public ownership League.
We would be delighted to receive from yoa
any detail* and suggestion*. Onr flght haa
Jut begun and we are going to need every
force to bring it to a sueeeufnl cocela-
■ion.*
"Mr. Jackson, and Mr. John lagan, ae
- well u Hon. James L. Key, the mayor of
the city of Atlanta, are all members of
the Public Ownership League.**
Who Carl D. Thompson Is
The Public Ownership League of
America is a socialistic organization
of Chicagp, Illinois, headed by Garl D.
Thompson, Secretary, who was at one
time Secretary to Victor Berger, So-
dalistic Mayor of Milwaukee.
In the programme of a meeting;
commencing November 15th, 1919, of
the Public Ownership League oi
America, at Chicago, Mr. Marion M.
Jackson is listed as one of the speak*
era.
The Municipal League of Georgia
advocates and stands for the funda
mental theory of Socialism—Govern-:
nient Ownership—The secretary of
the parent organization, the Publia
Ownership League of America, in its
meeting at Chicago, Illinois, November
15th, 1919, declared the features of
the work for 1920 should be for the
retention and ultimate public owner*
ship of railroads; the nationalization
of coal mines; continuous efforts to
have telephones and telegraphs a part
of the Postal System; continued pres
sure of the effort to promote munici
pal ownership of all utilities.
A Trick To Make Socialists
The plan is to first fool the peovlt
into voting for national, state or mu
nicipal ownership of these important
factors in the economic life of the na
tion, and then to change banking and
manufacturing to public ownership,
and the Socialist Party would then
announce itself.
This process of camouflaging the
real motive behind the effort is evi
dently chosen because the socialists
well knew that their sophistries *and
generalities would not find among the
people of Georgia enough disordered
brains to form the nucleus for an ef
fective political machine but with the
cunning of their kind they have
branded their effort the Municipal
League of Georgia and committed its
activities to Messrs. Key, Jackson and
Eagan.
Lenine and Trotsky learned their
lesson from the same school.

Only four of the States named have as much
water power as is annually thrown away in Georgia’s
undeveloped water power.
Georgia has 10 times the water power of Massa
chusetts, far more than New York, almost four times
that of Pennsylvania, eight times that of Michigan
and seven times as much as Illinois.
Only six of the 30 States paid as high an aver
age rate for light in 1917 as did Georgia. The Geor
gia rate has been raised more than once since then.
Why, then, has Georgia so little light?
Why is' our industrial development being throttled
by the lack of power?
Remember these facts—-Ask yourselves these ques
tions when you read the anonymous attacks upon the
Water Power Bills and the Municipal League now being
sent from Atlanta to appear in the press of Georgia.
The Water Power Bills, if passed, will enable the
people of Georgia to do what people in other States
are doing.
The Bills, will break the grip of the monopoly which
the Power Companies have upon your water powers.
Electricity at reasonable rates will be put in reach -
of the whole state.
Do not be fooled by the corporations.
Their purpose is only to keep Georgia tied and
helpless, while the corporations play games of high
finance with Georgia's God-given wealth of power for
the stake.
Your rights and the rights of your children are in
peril.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
That Dependable Ford Quality
F ORD durability began back in 1903 when Henry Ford started
experimenting with Vanadium steel and beat-treating pro
cesses. He knew that a more exact tempering of steel for
motor car building must be worked out. Vanadium, it was learn
ed, when added to molten steel, gives to that steel a greater tough
ness and adhesiveness. And now other alloys have been found
which are superior to Vanadium. With the Ford Motor Company
constant progress is the daily companion. The Ford products—
Car, Truck, Tractor—grow in quality daily. Heat-treating tem
pers each part so that it will best withstand the wear or tear to
which it is subjected. Ford chemists and analysts have created
formulas and standard specifications for every individual part of
the Ford ear—not only for the steel but for everything from
pneumatic tires to tops.
Ford durability isn’t a matter of accident, it is a matter of
painstaking thoroughness in laboratory and factory. The Ford
is a car of precision—of standardized values. Order your Ford
car now. No matter how fast they may be made the demand mul
tiplies faster. Order today for we can make fairly prompt deliv
eries—Runabout, Touring Car, Coupe, Sedan, Truck or Fordson
Tractor. 1

them much more than when they are In
good health. This fact proves that while
Catarrh is a local disease, it is greatly
influenced by constitutional condiUons.

the blood upon the mucous surfaces of
the body, thus reducing the inflammation
