THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1938.
Now, since the election is
over, stale-wide attention is
directed to the Legislature
which convenes in January.
Too many fellows who get
the edge on the other fellow
linanlly turn it over and sit
dov n on it.
Do you remember the good
old days when college profess¬
ors didn’t know anything
about finances and admitted
it?
Over in Poland, under the
new law, the pedestrian has
as many rights on the street
as the motorist. But has the
motorist found this cut.
The European war seems to
have been settled—for the
present at least. If all the
countries were well prepared
for war, there probably would
be less talk about it. In any
case it is never a had idea to he
prepared, and to he prepared
for war is certainly no excep¬
tion.
We were recent visitors at
the new work camp on Look¬
out Mountain. There are
some 75 or 80 prisoners in the
camp, with about 25 to be ad¬
ded within the next .‘10 days.
Most of the hoys seemed to be
well contented— (comparative¬
ly.) The writer, by chance, has
visited practically every work
camp and stockade in the
state, and Dade’s set up com¬
pares equally with camps in
other small counties, and far
ahead of many of them.

This column is being written
just before leavingdor Macon,
where the Editor will attend
the State Democratic Conven¬
tion. Though there has been
quite a little said through the
press as to what might take
place at the convention, we
anticipate no controversies
that will prevent the event
from being well in harmony.
By stating that there has been
quite a little said as to what
might happen at the conven¬
tion, we of course, refer to the
fact that there has been some
contention regarding the re¬
sults of the recent primary
election; particularly on the
part of a candidate who was
efeated in one of the major
aces.

The Menace
of Autocracy
-By RAYMOND PITCAIRN-
The world, as this is written, gazes
shocked and amazed at new and dra¬
matic evidences of the dangers inherent
in autocratic rule.
That humanity should be shocked is
natural. But that it should be surprised
is less understandable.
For more than a century and a half
It has seen, in the great American epic,
that where the people rule—where the
press and speech and religion and op¬
portunity are free—men have attained
high standards of living and liberty and
happiness.
For many centuries it has known that
where the reins of power are grasped in
the hands of one—or a few—the indi¬
vidual is oppressed, religion suffers,
freedom languishes, and the people are
sacrificed on gross altars of hatred and
personal ambition.
These are natural outgrowths of the
soils in which the two contrasting ideas
of government—Democracy and Autoc¬
racy—are nourished.
The first, Democracy, is founded on
Faith; the second, modern Autocracy,
grew out of Despair.
The first looks with confidence to the
Future; the second, with apprehension
at the Fast.
The first seeks to govern through rea¬
son and progress; the second, through
blind acceptance and regression.
The first bases its strength on the
freedom of the people; the second, on
the thickness of the chains that shackle
them.
There are other differences. One,
modem Autocracy, glorifies that cold
abstraction, the State; the other, De¬
mocracy, that warm reality, the family.
One glorifies the barracks, the other the
home; one, terrorism, the other, toler¬
ance; one, the weapons and conquests
of war, the other the tools and achieve¬
ments of peace. One breeds hunger and
desperation, the other, comfort and
confidence.
These are reasons why America estab¬
lished the principle of Government by
the People. They are reasons why the
American people should and must cling
jealously to that principle of self-rule.
Every surrender, however slight, of the
power of the people serves only to
weaken our sound heritage of freedom,
and to bring closer the black shadow
which lowers over so much of Europe.
