ASK PEOPLE TO FINANCE CAM
pPAIGN. THE NEWS WILL RE
CEIVE SUBSCRIPTIONS.
The Democratic Nationa.l -Com
mittee wants help, wax-xts it in an
open, above-board, public way. The
Cox-ROUSC"eIt manager§ fu‘e in great
need of funds—not millions, as are
available t 0 their .oppom?,nts. but
modest thousands wlt}.l which to off
set the effect of the immense ?unds
peing used to confuse and misrep
resent the true issues of the present
pational campaign.
They propose to get needed funds
directly from the bo'dy.of‘Cox-Roose
velt supporters. This is in ham!on.yl
with the financial policies of previ
ous democratic campaigns, In 1914
nearly 100,000 persons subscribed‘
to the fund used in carrying the Wil-1
son message to the people. In 1916
even a larger aggregate number of
individuals rendered financial help.
Though the time for making appegl‘
is short the (Cox-Roosevelt managers
pelieve even a larger number want
to contribute this year. e :
They have no hope or desire of
matching millions with the.repubh
cans; in fact, they don’t believe that
such is necessary even if it were tol
erable. But some funds are needed
with which to do legitimate work—
the maintaining of headquarters, the
writing of letters, the sending forth
of information which the voters
should have, ete. ;
Ample funds would readily come
to the democratic managers were
they to ignore all questions of source
and purpose represented by large
donations from selfish interests. ¢
Instead they are leaving the mat
ter to the people, to those who give,
modestly perhaps, but yet out of no
motive but unselfish desire to pro
mote the principles represented by
James M. Cox and Franklin D.
ROU}L‘\(‘IC.
They believe ‘the masses of Cox-
Roosevelt supporters will thus come
to the aid of the campaign, and have
requested The Dawson News to re
ceive and transmit contributions
from its readers.
Send yours at once to The News
office and it will be forwarded
promptly to national headquarters at
Grand Central Palace, New York
City.

OF DAWSON MOTOR CO.
DAWSON FIRM HAS ONE OF THE
MOST MODERN STRUCTURES.
FORD PRICES REDUCED.
The new home of the Dawson Motor
Car Ca., on north Main street, has
been finally . completed, and the
structure is one of the handsomest
buildings of the kind in the entire
state. Aside from the beautiful ap
pearance of the structure every
convenience and modern appliance
has been installed for the handling
of the business, both in the me=
chanical and sales departments.
Especially attractive is the big
sales room, which is entirely inclosed
by big plate glass windows and with
the interior arrangement and decora
tions especially designed to show to
the greatest advantage the display
of automobiles on the floor. To the
handling of the big supply of auto
mobile parts which the company car
ries a large part of the first floor
is devoted, and the most up-to-date
fixtures have been .installed for this
purpose. The second floor will be
used for mechanical purposes agd
storage.
The Dawson Motor Car Co. is
owned by Mr. M. C. Huie, of Al
bany, one of the most enterprising
citizens of Southwest Georgia, It is
under the active management of
Mr. . C. Huie, who has adopted
many progressive methods in his
handling of the extensive business.
The company handles Ford automo
biles and parts and other accesso
ries for this territory.
A matter of general interest is
the re-establishment of pre-war
prices on all products of the Ford
Motor Co. The price reductions range
from approximately 14 per cent on
motor trucks to 31 per cent on
small automobiles.
The pre-war price of a Ford auto
mobile was $360 and present price
is $550. The chassis truck sells for
$B2O. The truck was not made be
fore the war.

reductions were made despite unfill
ed orders for 146,065 vehicles. .

at any of the Ford plants, it was
announced. -

FARMER PRODUCES FIBER IN 4
SHADES, AND BELIEVES HE
CAN ELIMINATE DYEING.
A. W. Brabham, of Olar, S. C.,,
has finally succeeded in his efforts
of several years to produce cotton
of a color other, than white. He has
exhibited four samples of cottons of
color which sustain his assertions
that he has successfully produced
these cottons of extremely fine fi
ber, The samples shade from light
brown to dark brown and from light
green to dark green.
Luther Burbank once wrote Mr.
Brabham that he would undertake
the job of producing a black cotton
for $1,000,000. Brabham réplied
that a glance at his own samples
told him that he was in a fair way
to produce it at a much lower cost
than just a mere million.
As for growing absolutely black
cotton this year, Mr. Brabham says
he is sure he would have produced it
had not a package of blue-tinted or
linted cotton imported from India
gone astray. He has a Hindu botan
ist of Delhi gathering specimens of
cotton in color in India, and this
botanist has located blue, gray and
a light pink.
A CARD OF THANKS.
To those who so faithfully minis
tered unto us during the illness and
death of our dear mother we desire
to extend our sincere thanks; also
for the many beautiful floral offer
ings. May God’s richest blessings
rest upon each of you is our prayer.
