In the second primary race next Wednesday, October 6th, Geor
gians will nominate Dr. L. G. Hardman for governor, because he
stands for a clean-cut business administration. He Is not a man
that jumps first on one, then on the other side of an issue. He
stands four-square on matters that are of vital interest to the tax
payers of Georgia.
lie does not favor an increase in taxes and believes that with a
business administration taxpayers will be saved hundreds of
thousands of dollars annually. He favors reorganization of every
department of the state on a safe, sound, conservative basis.
Duplication of departments should be eliminated; unnecessary
help dispensed with and the affairs of Georgia conducted on a
high business plane the same as a private enterprise.
The Brown-Holder machine was partly smashed September Bth
and it will be completely put out of business on October 6th.
Holder will be defeated the same as Brown was defeated. Voters
are rallying to the Hardman standard for “he is the best man in
the race" and will make Georgia the best governor in a decade.
A vote for Hardman is a vote for progress in Georgia. So let
us move forward by electing Hardman.
