For The Stafe, The University And Clarke County £
Governor Herman Talmadge Can Do The Most
At the campaign for Governor
has progressed we have tried to
weigh all of the factors in an
effort to determine what seems
to be the best course for us to
take in determrining whom we
should support in the Demo
cratic Primary Wednesday, June
2
In expressing our opinion on
a choice for Governor we do not
attempt to speak for Clarke
county nor do we intend to tell
the people of our community for
whom to vote in the Primary.
We can speak only for ourselves
and we have come to the con
clusion that the re-election of
Governor Herman Talmadge
will be for the best interests of
our State, for the University
and for Clarke county. Others
may disagree with us.
Since 1932 Clarke county has
never voted for a Talmadge,
In 1932, 1934, 1936, 1938, 1940,
1942, 1946 and 1948, this county
found itself on election day in
the anti-Talmadge column.
We believe that there was
anrple reason for this action on
the part of a majority of Clarke
countians, considering the cone
ditions prevailing at the time.
And we have been actively in
sympathy with the majority
opinion of the county in the last
eighteen years in gubernatorial
and senatorial races in which
ithe late Eugene Talmadge and
his sor, the incumbent Gover
nor, have been principals.
Were we to cling to our habit«
ual preferences we would today
be in the anti-Talmadge ranks.
But, in recent weeks we hava
wondered whether, by elinging
w 0 the voting habits of the past
o~ to past political alignments
“ve would be faithfully discharg
g our duty as a puplic organ.,
"o do so would be consistent, |
~ut in the present situation it is |
»ossible that there are factors
“hat are more important to the
welfare of the state than mere
congistency.
We have come to the con
clusion that we would not be |
iulfilling our duty were we to |
allow our past actions to color
our thinking completely or dic
tate our course in the present
race, many aspects of which
differ fromr past gubernatorial
contests, i
It would have been easier for ‘
us to continue along in the same |
vath that has been ours and the |
community’s for nearly two de
cades and, simply upon ?e b‘f,'. |
of past partisanship, cast our '
with those who will again vote r
against a candidate by the name |
of Talmadge. It has not been
easy for us to reach the decis
ion that we have made.
We recognize that for many
Clarke countians there is in ex
istence no good reason to vote
for Herman Talmadge and, to
them, there are a number of
reasons why they should voie
against him.
But we ourselves find that
Case Against Big Corporations Should Be Weighed Impartially
The Justice Department’s anti-trust division is
said to be gunning now for the United States Steel
Corporation, It is predicted the government will
seek the company’s break-up into smaller units.
If this action comes off as forecast, it won't be
. based on claims of monopoly. U, S. Steel accounts
for slightly less than one-third of total U, S, steel
3 ox{tput. Monopoly charges would have made much
more sense years ago when the company did 60
percent of the industry’s business.
Today the government has & new idea: that the
old, crude ways of monopolizing trade have been
Y supplanted by smoother, more subtle devices. Anti
trust officials contend that nowadays a leading
company or a Big Three can restrain competition
just as surely as any monopoly.
The same reasoning has been applied to the
pending A. and P, case, The A. and P, does less
than 7 percent of the total business in its field. Yet
the government wants to split it into seven parts on
the ground it is limiting trade.
Having already won a crinvinal suit against A,
#ad P., the Justice Department is confident it will
|1 with the split-up suit, And presumably its hopes will
be high if it opens fire on U. S. Steel.
But should it fail in these attacks, there’s some
indication it may urge that the anti-trust laws be
| made stronger.
| A call for new legislation'undoubtedly would be
| followed by intense congressional scrutiny of the
| whole issue. Yet why should an inquiry wait until
such a moment? There's need for it now,
The Justice Department is admittedly practicing
| a new theory; we have only its own word that tais
notion fits tha language and aims of existing laws,
lig attacks on bigness as actually or potentially
“bad” for competition may really be unwarranted
under present statute.
An impartiel study by a group of high-ranking
lawyers and eccnomists would be & help in getting
the answer to the legality of this approach, long
before the Supremre Court would have any chance
T
there is no good reason, because
of more compelling community
interests, why we should advo
cate the defeat of Herman Tal
madge. We have found several
good reasons why we should ad
vocate his re-election. These
reasons are the State, the Uni
versity and Clarke county.
We do not agree with, nor
condone, some of the actions of
this administration,
For that matter we have not
agreed with nor condoned some
of the actions of past adminis~
trations which we supported.
We believe that Governor
Talmadge and his administra
tion are entitled to the same con
sideration and fairness that we
have endeavored to give those
administrations which we sup
ported, although we did not
agree with all of the actions of
those administrations,
We believe that Goverpor
Talnradge is entitled to our con
sideration because he has, to
our way of thinking, tried to
give the State a serviceable ad
ministration of State affairs.
He has been friendly to our
county, and in doing so (in the
light of our voting history) has
evidenced a breadth and degree
of statesmanship which merits
the commendation and appre
ciation of the community.
In his next administration we
are convinced he can be count
ed upon to continue his efforts
in behalf of the University Sys
tem and the University, here in
Athens, and we believe he can
be relied upon to do his best for
the material interests of Clarke
county itself.
As for his availability for the
Governorship, it appears to us,
without intending to speak dis=~
. paragingly of the other candi
dates for whom we have no ill
feeling at all, that Herman Tal
madge can do more for our
State as Governor than any of
thenr,
We believe this because he
has shown that he is a capable
{political leader, able to induce
; the Legislature to give the State
" an adequate program of public
!services and to adequately fi
nance that program.
It is true that Governor Tal
madge has nct advocated a sales
| tax, regarded by many as the
| best method of financing our
| State services. Neither has he
opposed a sales tax.
He has pledged himself, how~
. ever, to work with the Legisla
; ture in setting up a revenue
. system that will do the job that
' must be done,
A sales tax may turn out to
be the best way.
On the other hand, it may
turn out that a sales tax will be
found not to be the best way to
do the job.
Governor 'falmadge has not
irrevocably committed himself
for or against any particular
method for financing our state
services and in taking such a
to pass on it.
If the theory does go beyond the law, then new
legislation would indeed be necessary to support the
government’s assault on bigness. And then it would
be the turn of Congress to consider the wisdom of
more powerful anti-trust weapons.
Mass production is acknowledgea as a great fac
tor in our high living standards. Mass production
and large producing units have tended to go hand
in hand. But the question is: can the benefits of
mass output be gained without getting into super
companies like U, S, Steel, General Motors, General
Electric?
This is the real issue. The public has a tremen
dous stake in it, The prices of most everything it
buys will be affected by the decision whether to
break up the nation’s mammoth industria] firms,
It's much too'big a matter for a handful of Jus
tice Department lawyers to try to decide amongst
themselves, The country’s best minds ought to be
gin tackling it without delay.
Judge Harry
You often hear that the job of President of the
United States is that of referee among the many
conflicting interests that arise in our national life,
President Truman seems to have that view of the
job. In fact, he carries the thought down to the
lavel of the most trivial controversy. The other day
he refereed a dispute between a cab driver and a
sailor on a street in Columbia, Mo.
If this notion is developed much further, we may
expect mext spring to see Mr. Truman abandoning
the traditional throwing out of the first ball and
instead donning the umpire’s mask at the ball park.
And there's no sign the abuse he’d be subjected
to fromr partisan fans would bother him any more
than has the criticism of his political foes. The plain
fact is, the President likes being referee.
course we think he has shown
political wisdom.
He is in position to work with
the Legislature in finding a so
lution. .
He is not pledged to beat the
drums for or against any pet
plan. For that matter, whether a
candidate favors, opposes, or is
neutral toward the sales tax in
our opinion is of no particular
importance.
It involves no wital princi
ple.
1t is simply a matter of policy,
The main thing is: does the
candidate favor what the peo
ple want and need in the way of
public services and can he per
form the job of giving them
those services?
We believe Governor Tal
madge wants to provide the
people with the services they
want and need and, further=
more, we believe he can do the
job.
We believe he is by inheri
tance and experience equipped
to perform this job for-Georgia.
He has political skill, he has
demonstrated political wisdom,
he is not dictatorial in his man
ner—some have even called him
wishy-washy because he has not
adopted the dictatorial tactics
and predilections of his late
father—and he is the acknowl
edged leader of political forces
that will dominate the next ses
sion of the Legislature.
With the State needing the
things Governor Talmadge can
give it, with the University of
Georgia needing his help, sup
port, and genuine friendship
and with Clarke county need
ing the assistance of a friendly
state administration, it is our
opinion that we would be doing
our community a dis-service
were we not to point out what
he has to offer.
We have never been nor are
we now a part of the Talmadge
political organization.
In times past we have criti
cized and opposed to the full
extent of our power the tactics
of that organization and its
leadership, and whenever it is
required we expect to de so in
the future, but at the present
time and under the present
leadership it has something con
structive to offer to Georgia, to
the University and to Athens
and Clarke county,
The hand of the young Gov=-
ernor of Georgia, an alumnus of
the University who has a genu
ine ‘love for this community
where he lived as a student, is
outstretched toward Clarke
county,
Will we grasp this hand of
professed friendship, or will we
ignore it or reject it?
We do not know what other
Clarke countians myay do, but
for our part we meet Governor
Talmam halfway, we accept
this ion of friendship to
the Universitv and the county in
good faith, a laith that can by
his actions alone in the future
be rendered unjustifiable.

So You Want To Be A Model?
Well, Don't Wear Nine Hafs
BY HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK.— (AP) —Thous
ands of beautiful girls try each
year to get a foothold in the glam
orous business of modeling.
And you could flush Fifth Ave
nue with the tears of those who
fail. What is the thing that de
feats most of them? |
“They come in ' wearing nine
hats and three pairs of gloves,”
say Joan and Tony Webster, a
young couple who operate the So
ciety of Models, Inc., a talent
agency.
This is their way of saying the
girls act phoney instead of acting
themselves,
Look Alike
~ “They have stylized walks and
;stylized hair-dos that make them
all look alike,” said Tony, a for
mer radio writer who flew an
artillery Cub scouting plane in
Europe during the war.
“If Groucho Marks is making
money, every comedian wants to
grow a moustache. It’s that way
in this business, The girls work
too hard trying to look the way
they think a professional model
ought to.”
The result? They become stilt
ed caricatures. They gain a fake
poise — and lose their own real
poise.
“The photographers are inun
dated with pretty girls of this
type,” Tony continued. “When
my see a girl with real individ
ty and charm, they pounce
upon her, It's her naturalness
that pays off.”
There’s an old wisecrack that
you can tell a man who's out of
work because he dresses so neatly.
It's that way in modeling, too.
“One of the top girl models—
she makes up to SSOO a week—
comes to work wearing glasses and
with her hair in curlers,” said
Tony.
“And the girls who aren't
working — they come in wearing
nine hats,” chimed in Joan, her-

She was a Red Cross girl in a

Last January they bought the
model agency so they could have
the same working hours.
“We bought it on Monday, saw
it on Tuesday, and fainted on
Wednesday,” laughed Joan. “The
place was rather rundown-look
ing." .
But thirty of the models—who
earn from sls to S3O an hour—
volunteered to help them repaint
the offices. They got the job done
}over week-ends. The whole ex
periment has left Webster dazed.
i “What amazes me most is the
number of women who want their
children to be models,” he said.
“Some of them write us from the
maternity wards.”
