UNION RECORDER, MILLEDGEVILLE, GA., OCTOBER 18, 1R1R TiiUVeelc CCL. J. E. POTTLE SPEAKS IN! Marietta j Col. Jos E. Pottle was the princi- p.-.i speaker at a great democratic ,- lIy held in Marietta Tuesday even- f the past week. Col Pottle 3y Arthur BrUbane * A REAL KING. THE RIGHT ANSWER. LADY ASTOR RETURNS. AMERICAN ENGLISH. Kins Zosu. »f Albaniu, pulled down the fl»s of the republic and made hi-nself kins. A stalwart Albanian of the old kind that used to chase travelers with bear hounds Zosu has modern ways, with a neat little moustache, clipped' on both sides in the modern fashion, and more medals than Marshal Foch had. Some a.»ked will Zogu be a real king. But no more doubt. He rested 200 conspirators against throne, hanged eleven and will prob ably hang more. The answer by President Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg to the Franco- British plan for a naval agreement notifies Europeans, none too soon, that this is an independent country, not a British or French dominion. It is reiHrefhcng and reassuring to read in the plainest kind of Eng lish that the United States “cannot consent to proposals which would leave the door wide open to un limited building of certain types of ships of a highly efficient combat ant value (to France and England), and would impose restrictions only- on those types peculiarly suitable to American needs.’' This nation should now build what ever it NEEDS. Cruisers, submarines and airplanes, especially the last two. Lady Astor, born in Virginia. busy now in the House of Commons, re turns to the United States saying. “The women of the world are organiz ing for peace.” They have always hern organizing for peace, and manu facturing sons for war. Arp-rican “talking movie?," seen and heaffl in England, arouse en thusiasm and prediction that the rilent picture is doomed. British critics suggest thnt Amer. ican actors should “cultivate Oxford accent.” They don’t like our brand of English. Perhaps the talking movie will teach them to like the American language, just as they have been taught by our silent movies to like *nv>r!cT.n clothes and frome other things. Alcoholic drinks under prohibition are -arious. In the South “white mule" powerful alcohol made of corn, is popular. In th« Middle West “needled” beer is drunk by workmen. It is “legal” beer, orginally containing alcohol, bm brought up to a high alcoholic percentage by “needling’ with alcohol, procured by redistilling denatured alcohol bought at gaso- New York City speakeasies, rounding newspaper and other plants sell “smoke,” a deadly alcohol with n little ether added to give t! cloudy “smoke" effect. This drink 'veil described as follows: “Three know nothing until o the audience, and rc- .st attentive hearing.
