Daniels, Jonathan | August 2, 1941 issue

add to cart   close window

Eugene Talmadge does not represent that Georgia which in Atlanta is beginning to appreciate decency to the Negro and the dignity of freedom for a university. He believes he can destroy the state university by shouting "nigger" and get into the United States Senate in the process. "Old Gene" Talmadge has shouted "nigger" to his country supporters again. But the Negro is not an important party in this matter. Talmadge has kicked out the professors, which is sad for them but for the rest of Georgia it is chiefly important in being symbolic.
