fpo I My have Fellow Democrats of Georgia:
authorized the use of my name in the preferential primary for president April 20. This
action was taken in response to the urgen request of Democrats in every part of Georgia and after
careful consideration on my part.
The most vital question before the Democratic party today and one that will affect its fortunes for
fifty years is what attitude shall the national convention take with regard to the League of Nations.
Unless I enter the Georgia primary, I am assured that the vot* ; •:< of this state will be limited in
their choice on this great question to two candidates. One of these represents the extreme view
that the league should have be n ratified without any reservations and should have been rejected if sub¬
stantial reservations were insisted upon. The other candidate represent; the equaly extreme view that
the entire treaty should have been rejected with or without reservations.
I do not believe either view represents the public sentiment of our state. I am convinced either
would be injurious to our country. I do not believe the Democratic party, if committed at San Fran¬
cisco to either view, could hope to return to power at this election, or at any time within a genera¬
tion.
The great question to come before the San Francisco convention is, shall the Democratic party
commit itself to a national campaign on the proposition that the League of Nations should have been
ratified without the dotting on an "i” or the crossing of a “t.” I am unalterably opposed to its taking
such a position. For reasons that I will discuss fully before the people of the state, the treaty, with¬
out substantial reservations, was so inconsistent with American interests, Amercian institutions and
American ideals that it could not and should not be fore d upon an unwilling country. With proper res¬
ervations, substantially those that the senate adopted on vital points, the league could have been a
great instrument for good and should have been accepted.
The wise course for the Democratic party is to base its campaign- on the great achievements of
the Democratic administration and the Democratic congress, and not to blindly indorse “every phase”
of the administration’s record.
On this principle i announce my candidacy. Georgia is the first state to act in a primary on
this subject. Its action-will largely influence the action of other states. Indeed, its positio* is such
that it may be the controlling factor. Regardless of any question of my personal politics and regard¬
less of any effect it may have on my personal fortunes, 1 would be derelict in my duty if I failed to
make a fight for these principles in the coming primary.
I would infinitely prefer to make the fight without myself becoming a candidate, and it was on^
when it became apparent tha.t the issue would not be presented in any other way that I consented to
enter my name.
Democrats from all over Georgia tell me -that the present situation prevents a real expression of
public opinion and practcaliy disfranchises thousands of voters.
The issue is one of principle and of principle alone. If the position I support meets with the ap¬
proval of the voters on April .)—and I am convinced that it does represent the views of the over¬
whelming majority of Democrats—the delegation to San Francisco, from this state, will be oae com¬
mitted to this vietf.
I would greatly appreciate the indorsement of my state and would not seek to hold the delegation
pledged to me should a situation develop which, in their opinion, made it advisable for them to vote
for someone else. I would, in that event, release them from %ny obligation to me and enable them
to freely choose in connection with other delegates that candidate who was considered most available
on the principles announced and who most truly represented the fundamental doctrines on which the
Democratic party has rested since its foundation.
iwould, in no sense, seek or wish to control their choice.
It is my purpose to spend as much time as possible in the state and to discuss the issues in all
parts of Georgia, so far as time permits. I regard the matter that I have, presented as of such over¬
shadowing importance that 1 deem it unnecessary at present to discuss any other questions. Should
such other questions arise from time to time, they can then be considered.
