The race for the speakership of

helped the farmer so much in the
price of his tobacco.
If Talmadge’s views and wishes
had prevailed, instead of those of
the president, and if our senators
end congressmen had followed the
advice of Talmadge, tobacco would
now be selling at ten cents and less,
like it did last year and our farm
ers would still be at the mercy of
the tobacco trust.
In all the history of the world,
the farmer has never had a friend
like Franklir D. Roosevelt, a real
friend who actually does things to
better their conditions. He is not a
false friend like Talmadge. who is
always boasting about his interest
the farmer, but whose
main theme long enough to prove
that the election of Talmadge would
be looked upon as a slur on the pres
ident of the United States. Mr.
Mangham quoted an article written
by G. Gould Lincoln, political writer
for the Washington Star, who said
on August 20, 1934:
The present primary campaign for
the gubernatorial nomination
test of the New Deal strength in the
country. Governor Talmadge has
been an out-and-out critic of the
New Peal. He has been as scathing
of his remarks about what
has been going on in Washington,
and throughout the country, under
the present administration, as
Smith. He is opposed by Judge
Claude C. Pittman, a superior court
judge, who is an ardent defender of
the New Deal and is campaigning as
such, according tc all reports. Vic
tory of Talmadge, while other mat
ters are Involved, would be a real
sock in the jaw for the new deal
ers. it is said.
Talmadge, at best, contradicts
himself when he says in the same
breath that he Is a friend to the pres
ident and tnen protests against the
minimum wage and maximum hours
principle which is the very essence
of the president's national recovery
program, but in any event the thing
wc are trying to show is how the
success of Talmadge would be re
garded at Washington and else
where outside the state of Georgia.
We have the testimony of the ex
perienced political writer of The
Washington Star that it would be

RIGHT SORT OF JOINING
Some people -seem to be “bom
joiners ’’ They join one organization
or another, and the more they join
the better they seem to like it.
The idea is not so bad if carried
to a proper extent. As we see it |
there is not quite enough joining in
Milledgeville. Because there are not
enough citizens who interest them
selves in the matter Milledgeville
has no chamber of commerce. Were
this city to have a real live organ
ization of business men there would
no doubt, be a decided change in j
the promotion of public affairs in
Milledgeville. Many things are
needed and might easily be secured j
for our town if necessary pressure |
could b • brought to bear. !
Let us take the idea of joining j
more seriously, and by so doing;
band ouselves together and exert
our faculties in behalf of a better
town in which to live.

It does not rest wholly with in
