"surggggpggs AND Bass"
"About the year A. D. 200 the Praetorian Guard sold the`Roman Empire to a man whose name
1s not worth remembering for a sum that netted them about $1,000 each. The taxpayers had
that b1ll to foot. Some of our politicians may be trying to make a better trade but somehow
I doubt 1t. I shall live and die believing that the best thing we can do 1s to punish rascals
and give every man a chance to work out his own destiny. I never will believe 1t's rlght to
rob the hlves of bees that worked all summer in order to feed butterflies that danced through
the same sunny hours, even if the butterflies are forced to migrate south and never get back.
It will take lots of propaganda to make me believe that the bees beat them to all the best
flowers and stole the nectar from them."

Anthony 1n the Savannah Mornlng News of February
23, 1936.
