Georgians favor third Atlanta ga., March 31.�? of president Wilson has with the state committee dilate for the democratic term. The name been feed As a can nomination for president in held april 20. The primary to be delay in adoption of covenant is another crime of Republican party the Republican party has two great a crimes that will forever condemn it ill tho history of. The nation. Tho first Crinion was Iti Confin rink j u l citizenship upon the Black Man at a time when lie was unfitted for such citizenship. That crime created sectional Riikol i Ace hatred Ami the Black Man was Criado to suffer most irom the crime when he was not entitled to have done so. The crime and the Burden thereof should have been borne by others. Tho next crime is in the present time and consists in the opposition and temporary defeat of tho Dove Nannt of the league of nations. To make tho league of nations Plain so that every Man May understand it might be compared to the Constitution of the United states. When the thirteen original colonics perceived the necessity of forming a Union they linked themselves together with the Constitution. Men like Patrick Henry bitterly opposed such a Union. This orator declared that Virginia should never sacrifice her sovereignty. He Felt that his native country would lose Ita identity if it became a part of a Union of states. But the Wisdom of the Constitution has been verified hundreds of times. If it were not for the Federal govern neat of All the states that come from adoption of the Constitution of and Texas would boat War the. Boundary line. But is there is no thought of War is no thought of hatred Between Oklahoma and Texas. We dwell Brethren should Whilo the Federal government through tho courts it Lias established settles tho question involved in tho Boundary dispute. Under the league of nations the nations of tho world will become As a Shoma today Over is to there Twe As the states of the Union. They will have a common tribunal where their . S can in settled without report to the swot in. Flail it been claimed for the Constitution would have eliminated War among the colonies or the a states that succeed these Eon Olies. Liat claim would not have been justified because this country did have a War that involved the strength of the Constitution. To would not to justified in saying that tho league of Liat Lons will be a Panacea for War but it can be claimed in a logical reasonable Way that it would result in fewer wars and when it grows and develops As the Constitution has grown there will to a time when it will eliminate War tho league of nations ought to to adopted in some form and then let it grow As circumstances arise which necessitate growth. Let tho proper development Corno As there is need for development and when that is done the world shall have made the same progressive step that tho colonies Mado when they adopted tho Constitution of the United states. The Only principle that stands in the Way of the adoption of tho league of nations May logically to classed As party hatred or class hatred which grows out of envy. Tho Republican party docs net want tho democrats to have credit for that Forward step. Had or. Taft been president instead of or. Wilson tho republicans in the Senate would have been for the league. If that is entitled to be called a principle it is tho. Only principle that stands in tie Way of the covenant. Again we repeat that the delay of the adoption of the covenant is the Only one big crime of tho Republican party. Age old Jomes 01 Quot Home role a Tio Quot London March 31.�?Herbert .11.
