CLARK’S HILL DAM
The Controversy concerning the building of Ciark s Hill
Dam on the Savannah River seems to have evolved into no con
troversy at all.
With the average citizen in the territory concerned there is
no debate. A few years ago there would have been howls from
ail sides about ‘corporations," "vested interests, ’ and capitalists.
The attitude of the people toward “corporations” has grown
up.'
The Georgia Power Company has done such an excellent job
of being “A Citizen Wherever We Serve” in recent years that
the people have come to feel personal pride in its achievements
and growth. Everyone knows of the almost-singlehanded fight
The Georgia Power Company nas conducted to promote the
growth and progress of this State.
Regardless of the corporate affiliation of the Georgia Power
Company with Commonwealth and Southern, the management
is Georgia management and has Georgia’s respect and good will.
The proposed dam was to be constructed by the government.
The Georgia Power Company asked to be allowed to do the job.
The people have grown distrustful of Government, owner
ship, of government spending and of the usual government
Wastefulness.
The people believe that the job can be done better by pri
vate capital.
Let Georgia’s leading “citizen” do the job. — Prom the
Waynesboro, Ga., True Citizen.

The Future Os American Freedom
The rising tide of inflation is sending ominous chills ting
ling along the spines of the American people. It is not pleasant
to see tiie value of savings and pay checks dwindle as the price
indexes climb. Two thousand dollar autos and fifteen thousand
dollar homes were not included in the postwar plans of most
people. They indicate hardship, not prosperity, in the future,
and not so far in the future at that. In fact hardship, real hard
ship, is already here for the great number of unorganized
workers and those who live on fixed incomes.
The feeling is inescapable that only now is the homefront
beginning to come face to face with the consequences of the
“total” war. With inflation developing, the question arises of
how strong are our ideals of free enterprise and free govern
ment. Repeatedly, supposed realists express fear that should de
pression sweep the country, it would inevitably shake the found
ations of basic American institutions. They point to other lands
where desperate, hungry people turned to despotic government
for direction.
The people at home, for the first time in over a century,
have a chance to demonstrate their faith in the general idea of
individual initiative and opportunity. If the realists are right in
the theory that economic trouble will lead to the kicking out of
private industry and destruction of principles of government
that have lifted the individual in this country to an eminence
never before known, America and all her people will get just what
they deserve—serfdom.
It is difficult to believe that the future of American fieedom
will turn on material considerations. More than that, it is fan
tastic. It is, in effect, believing that the soul of the greatest na
tion on earth will perish if the people cannot have all the refrig
erators and automobiles and gadgets they want.

YOUR BATTLE OVER THERE
By Aulton Smith
What kind of a battle did you
fight
In the days just gone by—
While you were standing guard
each night
For me at home, in slumber
did lie?
What kind of a battle did you
fight-
In the jungles, air and on the
sea
While I, in the wheels of pro
duction’s might
For your return and humanity
set free?
What kind of a battle d.d you
fight
For me, for home and country
too — 4
Free speech and all of Liberty’s
right
One great cause, peace, home
and you?
What'kind of a battie did you
fight
When shot and shell around you
burst ?
Did you kneel to pray each night
Or thank Him for that hill of
dust ?
What kind of a battle did you
fight .
While in the field or dying and
dead ?
What was wrong, why didn’t
you write?
Oh, I see, you had my battle
to fight.
Did She Give Away
Her Boss’s Secret?
For some time Atlanta and
national newshawks have been
trying to find out what Gov.
Ellis Arnall plans to do when
he steps out of the chief execu
tive’s chair. The harder they
tried to find out, the less they
learned. So they turned to
guessing.
Some have speculated he will
be named U. S. Solicitor Gener
al. Some have said he is point
ing toward the Vice Presidency,
or even the Presidency, in 1948.
Still others have said he will
practice law and continue his
nation-wide lecture tour and his
writing.
Last week, however, Miss
Grace Cannington, the Gover
nor’s private secretary, possibly
may have answered the $64
question accidentally. She was
being interviewed by a woman
reporter for International News
Service on her life as a Gover
nor’s secretary. Asked what she
plans to do in the future, she
listed this one among the pos
sibilities:
Private secretary to Mr. Ar
nail, “who plans to open a law
office in Atlanta upon conclu
sion of his term.” Meanwhile,
Gov. Arnall, himself, just smiles
and holds his silence.
The best way to keep from
being tired all the time is to rest
at the right time.
