Information comes from Washing
ton to the effect that President Hard
ing will, as congress meets, open up
his fight on the progressives and try 7
and push through his ship subsidy
measure. Fine and dandy for the
Democrat, but suicidal for his own.

We are pleased to observe that the
local chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution are to put on a
great Georgia products dinner early
in December. If there is one thing
any better than another one, it is a
Georgia dinner and we are sure that
the ladies of the D. A. R. know how
to serve one.
The voters in Georgia were in no
humor to pass constitutional amend
ments on November 7th. It is now
evident that all of those submitted
were defeated. The amendment to in
crease the salary of the judge of the
suprior court of the Augusta circuit,
is very close and unofficially appears
to be defeated.
After all is said and done, Lloyd
George has simply got his! That's

English people will restore him to
power and vote for his policies, just
as th e American people are return
ing to the things that are represented
by Woodrow Wilson.
While we would like to see the am
bition of Mrs. Felton gratified and
would like to see Georgia have the
e distinction of having the first woman

is any good reason for attempting to

should Georgia be placed in the fool

meets next Monday.

COURTING MORE DEFEAT
1
In calling Congress into extra ses
sion to pass the ship subsidy legisla
tion and enact other laws he is desir
ous of placing on the books, does
President Harding think he will have
any greater control over Congress
now than he had during its last ses
sion ? Have the elections over the
country contributed to the strength
and magnetism of his leadership ?
Mr. Harding is courting failure in
his attempt to assert in his weakest
hour a leadership that never existed
even in his strongest hour. The Pres
ident went into office on the promise
that he wuold not interfere in the
business of the Legislative Depart
ment, and the legislators have held
him to his promise; they hav/not ex
pected nor brooked interference. Sad-
| ! .v enough, but too late, Mr. Harding
: discovered that the work of the Ex
| eeutive and Legislative Department is
! sc correlated and intertwined that, for
| the President to be a forceful Exec
utive, he must be an active advisor
and leader of Congress, says The Ma
.con Telegraph.
The people look to the President
as well as to Congress in their desire
for certain legislation. If it. is., not
H'thcoming, the President as well as
C ongreos is blamed. The mistakes
and omissions of Congress fail upon
the shoulders of the President as well
as upon its own; and where the Chief
Executive does not iV a large sense
energetically and forcefully guide
Congress, he is looked upon as a weak
President and inefficient. * In giving
ear to a quarrelling Congress that
was vxeed at President Wilson—as it
had been at President Roosevelt—for
making continued demands upon it to
i secure the passage of laws the Exee
jutive thought the people wanted, Mr.
j Harding became a hands-off-Congress
j candidate and President. And now
j the people revolt, since they find no
strength in their Chife Executive.
1 The Old Guard selected Mr. Hard
'mg for the Presidency because they
. did not want a_A<fader; they desired
to lead, themselves. For -two years
! they have led, and they have just
| been rebuked by the people for the
nature of that leader, hip. Even the
dyed-in-the-wool Republican Boston
Transcript declares that “instead of
shouldering the obligations imposed, .
instead of proceeding with dispatch
and diligence to obey the letter and |
spirit of the mandate which resulted j
from ‘the great and solmen referen- 1
chilli’ of November, 1920, the party in
power has neglected its opportunities,!
faltered in the face of grave and■;
| pressing problems, played fast and i
i loose with the veterans of the Great
| War, goose-stepped before organized
! bands of noisy minorities, enacted a
, tariff bill that we have repeatedly
i said is ‘a disgrace to the Republican
party and a menace to the nation,’ j
insulted the intelligence and inflamed j
the passion of the electorate in many '
j parts of the country by appointments ■
i to office that are indefensible on any j
i score. . . . Nothing but good
! should come from the wigging people
j have given the party in power; it was
i not only deserved, but timely; if the
warning it involves is heeded during
the next two years, the Republicans
may win in 1924—but if it is not, the
; party deserves nothing short of coun
j try-wide defeat.”

NATIONAL CANCER WEEK
I
; This is supposed to be Cancer Week
i in the United States and it is being
; fostered by various medical societies
j and institutions for the purpose solely
j of saving lives of American people.
! The staggering array of deaths that
; face us as a result of cancer are suf
. licicnt to cause a definite purpose in
Ihe lives of ail public spirited men to
Ido their best to teach the American
j people how easy it might be to ward
| off the great number of deaths from
I this disease if it is started in time,
j The objective is to bring to all peo
ple the need for immediate attention
i to all cases that appear to be canccr-
I ous. There is no hope when it has
! gone too far. There is all sorts of
' hope when it has not progressed to
any material extent.
; Here are twelve known cancer
facts. They are gathered by Dr. J.
L. Campbell, Chairman of the Cancer
Commission of the Medical Associa
tion of Georgia, under arrangement
with the Apierican Society for the
; Control of Cancer, with headquarters
in New York:
1. If an early cancer is complete
ly removed, it will not return.
2. There is a time when every can
cer can be cured, for it exists in what,
is known to scientific men as “pre
cancer.”
3. Cancer is first 'a lump or sore
that "can* be felt with the fingers or
seei) with.the era,” ®r gives certain;
definite warnings. If we knew how
to interpret these warnings, cancer
could be cured.
4. Nine cases out of toff do no’
cause pain in the early stages. Thi
is unfortunate. j.
5. Cancer starts as the/,result of.
[long continued irritation. If irrita
i tiori Sa removed, cancer will not de
! velop.
! 6. Cancer develops at the edge of
a scar where the scar and normal tis
sue meet. If the scar is removed, the
cancer will not develop.
7. Certain definite symptoms pre
cede every 7 cancer, just as surely as
wind clouds precede the rain storm.
The time coming when these symp
toms will be. heeded.
8. One hundred thousand people in
the United States ate ahnuAlly af
flicted with some form of cancer. This
is on the authority -of the Public
Health Service.
9. One woman in every eight, who
is over forty years of age; dies of
cancer. Three times as many Women
Inch die with cancer between thir
b.'-fivc and forty-five years of age.
Irani that time oh, the'ratio is fn’ore
i nearly equal.
10. Every person over thirty-five
years of age who is not sure about
n lump, sore unnatural. discharge
! should consult a competent physician
and demand a thorough examination.
If the first doctor consulted cannot
give a rational opinion, ask for a con
sultation.
11. Procrastination has caused the
lass of many valuable lives.
12. Any 7 doctor who tells you that
he has a sure cure for cancer is a
fraud. There is no such a thing as a
cancer serum or any 7 remedy that j
will cure cancer by being injected in- •
lo the veins or rubbed on the skin.
Vital Facts About Cancer.
I. During the Great War the Unit- j
id States lost about 80,000 soldiers, j
During the same two years 180,000!
people died of cancer in this country. <
Cancer is now killing one out of ev- i
cry ten persons over forty years of;
age.
v 2. Many of these deaths are pre-1
ventable; since cancer is frequently i
curable, if recognized and properly I
treated in its early stages.
3. Cancer begins as a small local!
growth Which can often be entirely j
removed by competent surgical treat- i
ment, or, in certain external forms, '■
by using radium, X-ray or other j
methods. j
4. Cancer is not a constitutional or |
“blood” disease; there should be no 1
thought of disgrace or of “hereditary
taint” about it. ,
5. Cancer is not a communicable i
disease. It is not possible to “catch” j
cancer from one who has it.
6. Cancer is not inherited. It is !
hot certain eveh that a tendency to !
the disease is inherited. Cancer is j
so frequent that simply by the law of ■
chance they may be many cases in j
some families, and this gives rise to j
much needless worry about inheriting I
the disease.
7. The beginning of cancer is usu- ;
ally painless; for this reason its insi- |
dious onset is frequently overlooked, j
arnj it is too easily neglected. Other '
danger signals must be recognized i
and competent medical advice obtain
ed at once.
8. Every persistent lump in the .
breast is a warning sign. AH s uch
lumps are by no means cancer, bht >
even innocent tumors of the breast
may turn into cancer if neglected. I
9. In women continued unusual dis- i
charge or bleeding requires the im- ]
mediate advice of a competent doc- ;
tor. The normal change of life is not
accompanied by increasing flowing j
which is always suspicious. The re-!
turn of flowing after it has once stop
ped should also be considered suspic
ious. In men anyy reddish color 4h
the urine is very suspicious of cahcer
of the bladder or kidney; though it i
is also seen sometimes with stone of
the bladder or kidney. Do not expect '
the doctor to tell you what the mat- j
ter is without making a careful phy- ;
sical examination. >
10. Any sore that does not heal,!
particularly about the mouth, lips or
tongue, is a danger signal. Picking
and irritating such sores, cracks, ul
cerations, etc., or treating these skin
conditions by home remedies, pastes,,
poultices, caustics, etc., is playing j
with fire. Warty growths, moles, or
other birthmarks, .especially those
subject to constant irritation, should
be attended to immediately if they
change in color or appearance, or
start to grow. Avoidance of chronic 1
irritation and removal of just such
seemingly insignificant danger spots j
may prevent cancer.
11. Presistent indigestion in mid-,
die life, with loss of weight and
change of color, or with pain, vomit- ;
ing, or diarrhoea, call for thorougii
and competent medical advice as to '
th e possibility internal cancer.
12. Radium is a useful and promi
sing means of, treatment for some
.kinds of cancer, in the hands of the
f w skillful surgeons and hospitals
possessing sufficient quantity of this
rare and very expensive substance;
it must not be thought of as cure
all for every form of cancer. No'
medicine will cure cancer. Doctors

EXPOSING SOME SECRETS
Someone finally says a good word
for the ex-kaiser. The “someone” is
Sir Basil Thomson, former head of
Scotland Yard detectives. Thomson,
now lecturing in America, and reveal
ing “inside stuff” of the British se
clet service, says: “The (German)
general staff had resolved upon the
invasion of Belgium and they put
their plans before the kaiser. He ve
toed them. This situation continued
for 48 hours and after the general
staff had issued the orders for the
ai piy to advance, Von Moltke went to
the kaiser’s bedroom at 2 in the morn
ing and asked him to sign the order,
lie refused. Von Ivlolike then said
that the safety of the fatherland had
devolved upon the general staff and,
‘lf your majesty refuses to sign, the
general staff must take the responsi
bility.’ ” “In other words,” according
to Thomson, “the kaiser must choose
between abdication and approval, and
ho took the latter course.” Thom
son’s lecture, instead of absolving the
ex-kaiser from guilt, distributes the
guilt to the shoulders of many, Bill
ihcluded.
A melodramatic picture of the
death of Rasputin, “sacred devil of
Russia,” is given by Thomson. Ras
putin, taken to a palace basement din
ing hall, was given a bottle of poison
ed wine that had been tried out on a
dog. Rasputin, when the poison got
to him, breathed heavily and foamed
At the mouth, but showed no signs of
dying. So Prince Youssapov, when
Rasputni staggered at him, gave him”
a shot out of a pistol, ‘and the monk
fell baekards with a terrible cry.” A
doctor called in, examined the body
And pronounced it dead. Later Yous
sapov approached the corpse and “put
his hand under the robe to feel the
heart. It seemed to be still, when
suddenly Rasputin sat up and seized
him by the throat.” Youssapov es
caped. Rasputin staggered to the
door, out into lha snow. Three more
pistol d.o'.s brought him down. But
it took a bludgeon to'fcr.i jTi t.he work;
He died hard. You o not wonder
Ybussapov decided that Rasputin war,
the devil himself.
Sir Basil Thomson thus adds a few
more pages to the “inside history” of
the World War, already contributed;
to so heavily by William Jlohenzol-.
