THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
For many «re called, but few are chosen.—Mat-
• ■ '' ***There’s^ a" small choice in rotten apples.—Shakes-

NATURALIZING THE ALIEN.
One of the greatest menaces to law, order and so
ciety is the loose manner in which aliens are enabled
to secure naturalization certificates and become citi
zens of the United States. Under the provisions of a
bill recently Introduced by Congressman -Brand, ot
this district, should it be passed by congress and be-
- come a law, federal judges will be empowered to re-
/? voke the order of naturalization of aliens, if they are
' found to be guilty of fraud against the government,
or if thev commit any crime, either a misdemeanor or
a felony, or if after the order is granted, aliens by
reason of their conduct or declarations cease to be
v men of good moral character.
The proposed bill is timely and with its enforce
ment, this country wil.be freed from many undeslra-
ble citizens. There are hundreds of foreigners im
migrating to this country, representatives of the So-
v;et government, with no purpose in view other than
to become citizens of the Uriited States in order to be
enabled to introduce the doctrines promulgated by
the leaders of Russia at the'seat of the government In
Moscow. These people are informed and drilled in
the teachings of the policies advocated by that gov
ernment, their paramount purpose being to dissemi
nate it throughout America. Affable in manner,
shrewd and designing in purpose, they seek the weak
points of citizens through entrance to civic organiza
tions and educational institutions as an avenue to ply
their doctrines under the guise of friendship and m-
tellectualism. These wandering emissaries from for
eign lands have succeeds in gaining considerable
inroad into the homes, societies and organizations of
the cultured class. Thejr work in this country, at the
present time, is in an incipient stage, but it is growing
and unless drastic measures are resorted to, there is
no telling to what extent these hired representatives
of foreign countries, enemies of our country, associat
ed with and aided, by some Americans, will carry on
•their depredations against the policies of our govern
ment The proposed bill of Congressman Brand will,
in a great measure, protect this country against such
practices and clothe the constituted authorities with
the power to revoke or cancel the certificate of citi
zenship of all such undesirable citizens. The enact
ment of such a measure will be a blessing to loyal and
patriotic citizens and a protection to society and for
the preservation of law and order.
STREET MARKERS AND PARKING CONCESSIONS
There are two deficiencies in the regulation of traf
fic conditions in this city that should receive the at
tention of the mundpal offcials. First, a complete
system of street markers should be installed in order
to enable autoists to see and observe the intersec
tions of streets, thereby prevcnting'accidcnts. While
there are some markers located in various sections of
the business district of tho city, there are many
places without these markers. Every precaution to
avoid accidents should be taken by the officials re
gardless of the amount of cost attached thereto. Sum
ming up the cost of such a system, the amount is not
alarming in size, and it could he expended without
imposing a burden on the tax payers of the city.
Another important restriction should he added to
the traffic ordinances—that of prohibiting parking on
the side of streets where the center of the street is
set aside for parking purposes. One street in particu
lar we call to mind is that of College Avenue, be
tween Clayton and Washington streets. With cars
parked in the center and on both sides of College
Avenue, it is a menace to drivers of automobiles to
traverse this block. Besides, the grade, is heavy, and
there is much danger of cars parked on the sides get
ting away and running blind into other cars or over
pedestrians. No car should be allowed to he parked
■ for a greater time than ten minutes on either side of
College Avenue in this block. Park curbing on this
street should be eliminated entirely and only the cen
ter of the street used.
The mayor and council or the members Of the po
lice and fire commission should make investigation
of the conditions of this street, and see to it that pro
hibitive orders are issued against parking -abutting '
the curb on either side. Unless orders are confirm
ed at this particular point there is no summing up tho
cost the toll will be in case of artidents.

AGAINST THE THIRD TERM.
The members of the United States senai.i nre al-
•most an unit in their opposition to the third term poli
cy of a president for this country. Last week n reso
lution was introduced by Senator LaFollette, in the
Aenate, which makes the plan a policy of both the
major parties which has bfcen in vogue for many
years. While his resolutiqn does not affect the stand
ing of President Coolidge, should he desire to become
a candidate, yet it will prevent in the future any pres
ident who might seek to secure a third term as pres
ident. To say thejeast of the resolution, it’was time
ly and will serve as a barrier to any president In the
future who might be disposed to disregard an estab
lished custom. President Coolidge has followed a
fixed policy during his tenure in office—that of keep
ing mum on all subjects and his declaration relating
to his candidacy for another term, he simply said.
“I do not choose to run for the presidency again.”
That settled the question, insofar as ho is concerned,
in our belief and when the convention convenes in
June, we do not believe that the president will allow
his camp to be presented to that convention for nomi
nation. .

Tho Athens Savings Bank is one
of the strong'st and most prosper
ous banka in tho state.' It has ex
perienced it remarkable growth
since its organization. Under the

Tliia great artery of travel
starts at the zero milestono in
Washington City and ends in Ban
Di:go, California, on tho Pacific
coast, crossing the continent from
ocean to ocean. It p-sses through
thirteen states—Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Mississitmi, Arkansas,
Oklahoma, eras, New Mexico, Ari
zona and California, he entire
distance is 3,000 ■ miles. And over
this highway passes the great bulk
of tho travel between tho EasLand
Middle W-st to Florida and tho
South Atlantic and Gulf Ports.
And we must not forget that olir
own 'Athens-!*
or via Greensboro and Union

What Athens should do is to de
vote its most earnest attention to
securing good roads to cover

from Gainesville Into Western

thence South to Lincoln, Wilkes,
