Thirty-five states already having acted favorably and with ratifica- '* tion by only one more state neces- effective Sary for woman suffrage to become throtwhout the nation, suffrage and anti-suffrage workers from all parts of the country were here prepared for what has been characterized as probably the most important contest a general as- sembly has faced #¥ince congress submitted ratification to the states. Fight to Begin Tuesday. Indications tonight were that plans ef leaders to begin considera- tion of ratification at the first day’s session probably would not materialize. Both houses already are organized and it had been pro- posed that after the seating of thir- teen new members, the governor's message would be received and pre- liminary steps toward action on the amendment be taken immediately. Governor Roberts’ call for the ses- sion, however, was nor issued until yesterday and formal notification, it was sald, would not be received by all members before tomorrow. It was doubted whether it would be possible to have a quorum in at- tendance tomorrow and adjourn- * ment until Tuesday was expected. Republican members will caucus tomorrow morning to determine their course and it was said their action would have an important bearing inasmuch as the party is represented in the senate by seven members and in the housg by thirty- four. Each republican has received from Will H. Hays, chairman of the republican national committee in message urging him to support rati- fication. Today's activities were featured by an address by Parley P. Chris- tensen, presidential nominee of the farmer-labor party, who spoke in favor of ratification at a meeting ef the trades and labor council. Numerous conferences of suffrage and legislators also were held, the workers Seeking pledges of #up- port. ; Outcome Is Uncertain. Warious leaders of both factions were claiming victory, but in many quarters there was a disposition to regard the outcome as uncertain at this time. Suffrage leaders pointed out that the legislaure in regular session last year granted préesiden- tial and municipal suffrage to the women of the state. The vote in favor of this legislation was a bare constitutional majority in the sen- ate and a majority of five in the house, seventeen of thirty-three members of the senate and fifty- four of the ninety-nine _members © of the house voting in the affirma- “Elwes Three members of the senate aud ten members of the house were elected last week to fill vacancies and suffragists declared that of the ‘thirteen they had eleven pledged, er enough to off-set any losses if Several of those who voted favorab- ly- on the state suffrage issue should oppose ratification by fed- eral action. Opponents of woman suffrage in any form and those who oppose suf- frage by federal legislation but fa- ‘vore it by ‘state action, have com- ined forces and were confident that there were enough members of similar views in each house to da. feat ratification.

Ryan Captured After Chase of 15 Months. Knoxville, Tenn. August 8— Thomas Ryan, a former lieutenant in the tank ,corps of the United States army, and who is under in- dictment in Chattanooga for im- perzonating,a deputy United States marshal, has just been captured by special agents of the department of justice at Charlevoix, Mich. and returned to the United States mar- shal at Knoxville after a chase last- ing fiftéen months. He gave bond in the sum of $6,000 for his appear- ance at the November term of fed- eral court at Chattanooga, when the case will come up for trial. In the indictments against Ryan he is charged with impersonating a deputy United States marshal and, by means of fake habeas corpus corpus writs claimed to have been issued from the federal court, kid- naping a little girl in Bradley county, Tennessee, and taking her in an automobile to Atlanta. He is indicted jointly with Alice Stans- bury, S. R. Stansbury, Fred Milter and J. D. Craddock. Government officers stated that on May 30, 1919, Ryan, in company with Alice Stans- bury, Miller and Craddock, left Chattanooga in an automobile and drove to the farm of Thomas Swof- | ford, near the Georgia line, in Bradley county, Tennessee, and claimed that Miller and Ryan were deputv United States marshais with a court order from Federal Judge E. T. Sarford to produce before him at Chattanooga Swofford’s adopted. daughter, Myrtle Irene Swofford, who was the daughter of Alice Stansbury. ' It was stated that a number of years ago Alice Sansbury, upon se- curing: a divorce from her husband, gave her youngest daughter, Myftle Irene, to Thomas Swofford and wife. * In’ the divorce decree the custody of this child was given to Mr. and Mrs. Swofford, and they thereafter legally adopted her in Bradley county court. A number of years afterwards her mother, Alice Stanslury, attempted to regain possession of the little girl and instituted two proceedings in the state courts of Bradley coun- ty, in each of which she was un- successful; that Alice Stansbury and her brother, S. R. Stansbury, of- fered Mr. Swofford $1,000 to sur- render the cnild, who was then 12 years old, but, owing to the affec- tion of himself and his wife for the little girl, he declined. Legal pro- ceedir.gs for recovery of the child later were made, but.proved unsuc- cessful, and the abduction followed. Mannix Barred From Liverpool By Great Britain Archbishop.

Announcement was made by the police today that Archbishop Mannix of Australia would not be disembarked here from the steamer Baltic. The White Star line has issued notice that the steamer is expected to dock here at 6 o’clock Monday evening. No word has been received from the archbishop, but the Dublin dep- utation headed by the mayor, which arrived in Liverpool! last night for the purpose of conferring the free- dom of the city of Dublin on Arch- bishop Mannix, expect him to come here in any case and are prepared for his reception at any moment, whether he arrives by boat or train. Much suppressed excitement was noticeable throughout the day, but no outward demonstrations were seen.

ARCHBISHOP CLOYNE CRITICISES ENGLAND. Dublin, Augtist 8.—(United News.) The attitude of the British action in denying Archbishop Mannix the privilege to enter Ireland was chal- lenged today in a letter written by Archbishop Cloyne, and by his di- rection read at masses at the Queenstown cathedral. In his. letter Archbishop Cloyne stated that. Mannix would not be allowed to land in his native coun- try and’ was being treated like a criminal beeause he had dared to criticise Bngland. The Archbishop further declared that England had blundered in her insulting treatment of Mannix, who was coming. to Ireland not to in- du'ge in political agitation, but to see his aged mother.

For some rea- Son or other the statements made by Mrs. Andrews. have either been withheld from publication or stated in such a way as to rob them of half their meaning. It has been said more than once in the public press that Mrs. Andrews did not of- fer any criticism of conditiuns or management, but only of bathing Suits worn by some women. This is not true! Mrs. Andrews, as wife and mother, was unmistakably plain in her criticisms of both conditions and conduct prevailing at these places, giving two concrete illus- trations of things she saw, declar- ing that the conduct of men and women was such as she sat with her guests lodking on that a blush of shame mantled her face. “Why under. heaven don’t they act upon the testimony already given? will swear to what I saw: Mr. Andrews will do the same.

Dayton, Ohio, August $.— United News.)—The first and outstanding reaction of Governor Cox’s speech of accéptance is that Senator James A. Reed, of Missouri, who was here for the ceremonies, is opposed to the nominee’s position on the league of nations covenant. Interest here centered in what the future course of Reed will be. He declined to comment directly on the | governor’s speech or whether he would bolt the party because of his divergent opinion on the _ treaty which Cox made the main issue of the gampaign. “Whatever action I take will be taken after full deliberation,” he said, adding that he proposed to read the speech several times with- ing the next week, and might make a statement thereafter. He left for Kansas City tonight. Those close to Cox and Reed do not believe he will leave the party, but admitted that the two were far from being “as one” and that the Senator probably would not actively sup- port the nominee. Reed, it was learned, held a long conf2rence with Cox, shortly before he delivered his speech of acceptance and urged the KOvernor to cnange his league po- Sition. The senator insisted that, despite Cox’s refusal._to share his ee he held high admiration for m, Reed, in a statement today, clear- ly indicated that his views on the league were rather far from those of the nominee. He said: “It now seems plain that nobody is in fa- vor of the league covenant as it was brought here and presented to the senate. Everybody admits it has to be changed. The truth is, it has been literally shot full of holes. Nobody dare any longer sponsor it as presented. Some are in favor of one change; some are in favor of fifteen or twenty changes: some are against it altogether, but_no- body fs willing to take it without some changes. “Bvidently we are mania’ fine progress. he longer it is discuss- ed the more changes the people fa- vor. The;critics of the leagues have been vindicated.” Senators Pomerene and Reed con- ferred and agreed to accept the suge- restion of Senator Kenyon that the senatorial campaign expenditures committee be reconvened August 18, at Chicago, to investigate the war chests of both parties. MARINES IN RIOT AT REVERE BEACH They Attack Police—Fed- eral Troops Called and Bayonets Used to Clear Beach—Several Persons Wounded. Revere, Mass., August 8.—Federal troops from Fort Banks were rush- ed to Revere Beach tonight after a crowd of sailors and marines had attacked a police station after mob- bing a Metropolitan Park police of- ficer who had attempted to arrest a sailor on a charge of drunken- ness. While thousands of Sunday: night Ppleasure-seekers looked on,. the | sallors and marines, joined by a few soldiers and numbering more than four hundred, took the pris- oner from the officer and then gave battle to other members of the force. Some of them seized rifles from nearby shooting galleries and opened fire on the police. station. The police returned the fire with revolvers and shotguns. Five sai- lors were seriously wounded and there were many minor injuries. Help was summoged from Fort Banks, the Chelsea police and the Boston navy yard. A detachment of 300 soldiers from Fort Banks Was hurried to the scene and pro- ceeded, with fixed bayonets, to clear the beach, The police estimated the crowd at the beach at the time of the rioting to be 100,000. Orders were given that every sail- lor in Revere was to be arrested. Late tonight more than 100 had been placed under arrest, and the authorities seemed to have gained control of the situation. , Several patrolmen were injured \in the fighting, none sériously. The beach is under the control of the Metropolitan distriét commission and is patrolled by the commission's police force. , Most of the minor injuries to po- licemen and bystanders were caused by flying stones when the mob hurl- ed missiles at the police station. ‘The windows were smashed and much of the furniture atation was broken. The excitement among the on- lookers was intense, especially when the officers fired yolleys over their heads in an effort to frighten away their attackers. Women and Sirls screamed and some of them fainted in the crush as the throng pressed close to watch the battle. It was more than Tie hours before the soldiers an Olice, assisted by naval provost guards, succeeded in driving away the throng of cu- rious. The police station was filled with prisoners and many more were lined up outside under, guard. Actor Slavin | Badly Injured; McGraw Involved Slavin Found With Bro- ken Skull Near Home of Giant Manager — Fight Reported in Lambs Club. New York, August 8—John C.

Winfield Leggett, retired naval officer, and Slavin had accompanied McGraw home early today from the Lambs’ club, Leggett is said to have told the police. Leggett was unable to account for Slavin’s injuries, ana, according to the police, said that he and Slavin had intervened in a fight between McGraw and an actor at the Lambs. The house committee of the Lambs’ club tonight issued a state- ment saying that,. except for the office, the club was closed at the hour Slavin was said to have been injured, and that he must have re- ceived his injury after leaving the place. An investigation into reports of a disturbance at the club will be started tomorrow, it was stated.

Red Troops Like Boys Going to Picnic. Warsaw, August 8.—(By the As- sociated Press.)—Sergeant William Cook, of Fay, OKla., a member of the American typhus expedition, who was captured three weeks ago by the Russian bolshevik when they entered Minsk, has arrived here, having been released by soviet au- thorities. Following his release he went to Vilna and thence to Riga, where he joined a Red Cross courier coming to Warsaw. “Soldiers in the bolShevik army,” he said today, “are all eager to reach Warsaw, as they believe the war will end‘if the Polish capital is taken. There igs not much talk, however, about entering Warsaw, and some of the bolsheviki appar- ently do not care whether the war ends. Many of them are young fel- lows who look upon war as a great lark.”’ . Plenty of Munitions. The. soviet army has plenty of soldiers, rifles, machine guns and ‘ammunition, Cook says, but he did not see any artillery excepting six cannon captured from the Poles. The bolsheviki, however, had no shells for these guns. He saw many American automobiles and motor- off, | cycles being used by the soviet sol- diers, and remarked that the bol- sheviki are fairly well fed, having lived off the ‘country they have taken from the Poles. Little discip- line prevails in the bolshevik army, he declares, but although there is no saluting officers are respected by the men. While on the march the bolsheviki reminded Cook of a crowd of Amer- ican farm boys going to a picnic, as they made no effort to preserve formation and straggled along the roads in little groups. Some would be on one side of the highway and some on the other, while others would be geen scattered through the fields. Whenever they desired, groups would sit down to rest. Cook, who fought in the American ranks at Cantigny during the early summer campaign of 1918 and par- ticipated in the Marne-Aisne offen- sive and also in the battle of the Argonne, was capture when he re- mained with the anti-t vere train at Minsk in the hope of being able to bring it out of the city before the bolsheviki arrived. Stripped of Everything.

BATTLE OVER LEAGUE WELCOMED BY G. O. P. Alleged Governor Cox Ignored Facts in Criti- cism of Record of Re- publican Congress on Taxation, Finance and League. Marion, Ohio, August 8&.—Assail- ing Governor Cox’s speech of ac- ceptance as “a curious mixture of errors and misstatements,” Senator Hardine’s he: -uarters replied at length in an official statement to- night to the governor's criticism of the record of the republican con- gress on taxation, finances and the league of nations, The. republican party, the state- ment said, is ready to join battic on the que: of whether “the senate atteripte:i to subvert and did subvert. the wish and purpose of the American people in preventing ratification of § the president’s league.” ; : Charges that the republican “sen- | ate and house had madé no effort to reduce war-time tax burdens were described as. “far from record- ead facts,” and it was declared that ‘by opposing demo ratic appropria- tion proposals the present congress had effected a savins of $2,414,T15,- 144 in government expenditures. The statement also asserted that by suggesting repeal of consump- tion taxes and enactment of a blan- ket one and one-half per cent levy on the gotal business of going con- cerns Governor Cox had shown “that he has no program whatever except io appeal for the support of people who went somebody else to pay the taxes.” “A leadership which woujd dis- tort these outstanding facts as Gov- ernor Cox has done,” it continued, “will hardly command confidence when the country turns attention tu the problem of our fiscal future.” The Republican Statement. The statement given out over the Signature of “Senator Harding's headquarters” was as follows: “Governor Cox’s acceptance ad- dress will not fail to please his po litical opponents, republicans and cemocrats alike, who are convinced that the country’s most immediate task is to get its business adminis tration into the hands. of people competent to take care of it, and get its international relations into the contro] of men who are Ameri- cans, first, rather than internation- alists. “The speech is a curious mixture of errors and misstatements as to facts so well Known that mere ut- terance can cause nothing less than amazement. “Thus on the subject of govern- ment expenses Governor Cox said: “Immediately following the ar- mistice, measures to modify onerous and annoying taxation should have been taken and the republican con- gress ... has not made a single ef- fort or passed a single law to lift from the American people a load of war taxation that cannot be tolerat- ed in a time of peace. Federal taxa- tion must be heavily reducedgand it will be done at once if a democratic administration is chosen in’ Novem- ber.’ “The foregoing is far from re- corded facts. The 66th congress in a little more than a year of its ex- istence, reduced the country's taxes by $2,414,115,144.13. That is, it ap- propriated that much less than the amount which the democratic ad- ministration demanded should . be appointed. “The democratic 65th comgress died March 4, 1919. It had failed to pass many of the appropriation bills. Its task was turned over to the incoming republican congress. which proceeded immediately tv prune down the estimates that had been embodied in the appropriation bills prepared by its democratic predecessor. This pruning process resulted in a saving of $939,692,- 541.97. That is, if the democratic congress had succeeded in passing. before its lease of life expired, the bills fhat it had framed, it would ha appointed nearly a billion dol- lars more than the republican con- gress immediately following appro- priated for the same purposes.

That vigorous championing ofthe league of nations would jcontinue prominent in the campaign was in- dicated by the governor ig. a speech he made late today for phonograph records.

The company has refused to treat with the union. No formal vote was taken at the meeting on the question of contin- uance or cessation of the strike. By acclamation the men accepted a suggestion of their leaders that the matter be left in the hands of ‘their executive committee and their }attorneys.

The French military authorities, the dispatch continues, are report- ed to have hastily approached the German consulate for passports for all members of the French mission. The German clerical forces were unable to issue the passports speed- ily enough, so three French majors joined the staff to expedite the work. Poland’s one military hope—Hal- army—is proving a disappointment, notwithstanding the fact that it made heroic ef- forts té stem the onrush on the northern front, during the course of which it sustained heavy losses. It is added by the correspondent that there is serious friction be- tween the French general, Wey- gand’s, staff. and the Polish mili- tary leaders, which has resulted in hopeless confusion in the carrying out of orders in the fighting zone. What remains of the shattered volunteer army which was repulsed along the Bug river are returning without arm or equipment in squads of from twenty to forty. Preparations have been made to blow up both of the principal Vis- tula river bridges. All river traf- fic has been prohibited under threat of death. The food shops of Warsaw have been stormed. The Ghetto district is being given spe- cial protection, owing to the anti- Semetic sentiment prevalent in the city. The correspondent says a co-or- dinate Polish government has ceased to exist. The finance min- istry was the first to leace. Presi- dent Pilsudski is reported to have said that he preferred death on the battlefield to seeing Poland’s down- fall. The prévailing internal confu- sion, according to the correspond- ent, is yn i of the proclama- tion of a soviet republic in the next few days. Bolshevik propagandists have been busy in the suburbs for the past week, unmolested. Incoming trains are: reported to be jammed with armed deserters. Three hundred deserting officers were placed on trial Wednesday. Of these twenty-three were executed. A pamphlet signed “A_ Soviet Soldier,” circulated in Warsaw, calls on the proletariat to join “our Russian brethren.” The woman suffrage movement !s now organized in Indfa Japan and Turkey.

Washington, August News.)—Government officials here are awaiting with keen iraerest | the outcome of the Lloyd-George- Millerand confegence at Hythe and confirmation of the report made public by the Polish legation today to the effect that General Haller'’s ‘army, to the north of Warsaw, had taken the offensive against the bol- shevists and was making satisfac- tory headway. The state depart- ment was without information of a definite character either from the American legation at Warsaw or from the embassy at London throughout the day, and Secretary Colby, deeming the situation “up in the air” until after the conclu- Sion of the Hythe get-together, Stayed away from his office. The note reported to have been sent from Poland te the United States had not t im its appear- ance here up to a late hour tonight. nor was any inkling to be obtained as to its probable contents, other than that it would be in all lekli- hood a more direct and urgent plea for at teast the publicly-expressed moral support of America than was recently made by Prince Lubo- mirsk, the Polish minister, to che state department. On this occasion it is understood the prince was told that this government was powerless to act in any material way without the approbation of congress, and that the government’s already ex- pressed policy of neutrality between the Poles and the bolshevists was: reiterated. Nothing has happened over the week-end to warrant the assump- tion in the slightest degree that the neutrality policy has undergone a “Amaterial change. Alarmed as the government avowedly is over the sweep of the bolshevist success, it hesitates to commit itself to any policy that might seem inimical to the “people of Russia,” or that might put the United tates in the embarrassing ,.position of seeming to favor the dtémemberment of Rus- 8.—( United | Sia’s territory, and is torn between its desire to aid Poland, at whose birth President Wilson assisted, and to keep to its plan of letting Rus- sia tire. of soviet rule and put its own house in order.

Two weeks after his capture, Cook was tgken before the com- misar, who related the good points of the soviet form of government before releasing him. Cook re- mained in Minsk for a week before he could obtain papers which would give him authority to travel.

Christen- sen, farmer-labor candidate for president, in a formal statement here tonight. “The Cox speech,” Mr. Christensen said, “completes the conspiracy by the republican and democratic bosses to blind the people to their real interests by setting up the dead league of nations as the paramount issue of the campaign. “I make the prediction that the -present critical '‘Kuropean situation will result in what amounts to a new peace conference that will scrap the treaty of Versailles. The league of nations as created in that treaty’ has never functioned, and never will. Europe knows this, and realizes now most acutely the necessity fora new agreement—a peace based on the solid foundation of international] justice-and honest statesmanship, and not on rhetorical generalizations by erudite hypo- crites. “The world is sick of just such words as Governor Cox employs. Wilson long ago depopularized them. America and the world want men with courage to take a definite po- sition on a definite situation, Where does Governor Cox stand on the secret Franco-British-American plot to munition and supply the Polish imperialistic invasion of Russia? Where does Governor Cox stand on the right of specific oppressed na- tions—Ireland, Egypt. Persia, India and Korea, for examples—to a place in the sunlight of freedom? Where does Governor Cox stand ‘on the merciless refusal 6f the Wilson ad- ministration to permit resumption of trade with Russid, so that mil- lions in that country might be spared the starvation from which other millions theré have already perished? ’ “Smug hypocrisy is the domgnant note in the governor’s statement of acceptance, just as transparent bun- combe is the outstanding charac- teristic of his republican opponent’s utterances up to date. There is no promise in Cox’s speech of definite relief from any of the economic in- justices burdening the people. This is bécause Cox, like Harding, is powerless to offend the combina- tions of capital interested in the perpetuation of economic injustice.” FARMERS FORM HUGH DORSEY CLUB ATF CAIRO MEETING Cairo, Ga., August 8.—(Special.)— The most enthusiastic meeting that has been held in Grady county in many years was manifested here Saturday when the. Hugh .Dorsey Farmers’ Club of Grady County was organized to elect the governor to the United States senate. Member- Ship in the club was’ by no means limited to farmers, but it was call- ed the farmers’ club because farm- ers were in a large majority.

FEDERAL ROAD BUILDING MAKES GREAT SHOWING Washington, August 8.—Rbdad op- erations under the federal aid road act thus far initiated aggregate in length nine times the distance from New York to San Francisco, ac- cording to the summary given to- ot the bureau of public roads, in the department of agriculture. The tederal government’s share in this undertaking is greater than the cost of the Panama canal, MacDon- ald said. Federal co-operation with states is carried out on an approx- imated ‘50-50”" basis. “Second only in importance to the size of 7 present road bujlding program~is the excellence o the character cf the roads being Built,” it was said. “Sixty per cent ef the total allotment of federal. funds which has been approved to date will be spent for roads of such dur- able types as bituminous concrete, Portland cement concrete and vitri- fied brick. These roads when. built will increase by 7,600 miles the to- tal of 14,400 miles of roads of’ this class which existed in the United States before the federal aid road law was passed, But these figures by no means represent the total mileage affected. Projects Approved. “Up to June 30, 1920, 2,985 ects involving a total of 29,519 Aniles of road had been approved. The preliminary estimate of the cost of these products is appreximately $384,900,000, of which approximate- ly $163,841,000 will be approved as federal aid. On the same date 2,116 projects representing approximately 15,944 miles had either been com- pleted or were under construction. The estimated total cost of these projects in various stages of con- struction and completed is $200,- 000,000. The total cost of federal!) aid work approved by the secretary in the 19 months subsequent to the signing of the armistice and prior to July 1, 1920, which is approxi- mately $330,000,000, exceeded by $63,000,000, the cost of all road and bridge work done by states counties in this country in 1915. The value of tre work completed during that period amounted te $60,000,000, a rate of construction equaling that of the Panama canal. Handicap te Buslding. A present serious handicap road building is found in the car shortage, according to officials. It has been impossible to obtain Muipment and supplies for road building in many instances. One of the far-reaching results directly attributable to the adop- tion of the federal aid program has been the creation of adequate state highway departments. The insistence of the government upon the construction of federal sid roads under the supervision of en- gineers of the state departments has resulted in placing a much larg- er proportion of road work under skilled direction. This year state departments will exercise controi over fully 80° per cent of the large sums that will be spent for rodd building. PURSE PRESENTED REV. JOHN W.

Any draft registrant who is in doubt as to his status is enjoined by the department to write at once to the adjutant general of the army at Washington and find_out how he is classified. He is urged to do so within the next two weeks, so as te allow sufficient time for his case to be passed on before public an- nouncement of the names of the de- serters is made. Each man classi- fied as a draft deserter has had his name posted in the community in which he is registered as being required to perform certain duties, and efforts have been made to no- | planning ts eRe GEORGIANS ARE GUinG, TO TOKIO CONVENTION ~ Many Georgians are going to the ~ world’s Sunday school convention to be held in Tokio, Japan, in Oc- — tober. Ten official delegates have been appointed by Sunday School association, accord- ing to R. D. Webb, the generai su- rintendent. The convention will last ten days and delegates from all parts of the world are expected — to attend. Among the delegates from Geor- gia will be Miss Flora Davis, as- sistant superintendent of the Geor- gia Sunday School association. Miss Davis expects to leave Monday night, and while in the Orient is to visit mission stations and other points of interest-in sev- erai of the foreign countriés. Oth- er delegates from Georgia are Miss Martha Harris, of College Park; ev. and Mrs. J. . Ham, of the Tabernacie Baptist church; Mr. and Mrs. H. N. Rainey, of Atlanta: Mr. and Mrs. Fred Houser, of Atlanta: Mrs, Claude H. Hutcheson, of Jores- boro; Dr. W. B. Warthen, of Davis- boro. D. W.

Owing to the expense that would be involyed, in apprehending the payment )of $50 for each deserter military authorities, “believing captured and turned over to as its announcement reads, “that the public spirit of state and loca! officials, patriotic societies and other agencies, including the de- partment\of justice, will cause them to co-operate in the search for of- fenders.” In its announcement the war de- partment lays stress on its anxiety “not to place upon any man who served his country honorably the humiliation of having his name ap- pear as a slacker,” and says that for that reason it is advertising as widely as possible the fact that the list of deserters will soon be pub- lished, and that the men whose names appear on it will be afrested and tried before military courts. It therefore urges every man who @#s not positive that his record with his local draft board was complete in every detail to clear his record, adding: “Once the list of deserters is posted, every means at the dis- osal of the army will be brought nto play to bring about the arrest and trial of the guilty. “The tremendous public sentiment the | ; j against slackers,” the announce- concludes, “will cause the where-| abouts of most of them to be fe- vealed, and it is not expected that any guilty man will escape.” Mr. John Tibbs.

OER es Cee oe: Not a street of importance as a eS business street has failed within the past eighteen months to profit by the erection of one or more substan- tial buildings now occupied by some branch of the automotive industry. The greatest development has, of course, been on Peachtree, West Peachtree and Ivy streets, but it’ is practically impossible to ride in any direction from Five Points without seeing handsome and _ substantial structures which have been recently constructed expressly for the auto- motive industry. Possibly no other line has experienced the same sub- stantial growth in Atlanta as has the automotive industry, both from a distributing and a manufacturing point of view. These buildings and the firms who occupy them are here to stay, to add annually to Atlanta’s prestige as a commercial center, unequalled : in the entire southeastern states. gs rT ay * ie « & Pad 4h ees 9 ot a oe ae Gea ) dDulluing, occupie oy . the d.

The ideals and motives of : these many workers are reflected in the products they createandcan besum- med up in one word—Character.

Look over the list of members care- fully. You will no doubt findione or Sys} fi more of your friends among them.

Dorsey. Governor Cox emphatically puts the league of nations to the front as the supreme issue in the cam- paign. It naturally follows, then, that democrats everywhere, who are in accord with the national leader- ship of the party, and who are anxious that the next democratic president shall be supported by a friendly senate, will vote for no senatorial’ candidate who is i.ot sympathetic with the Cox view- - point. In his address of acceptance, | Governor Cox, recounting the dis- graceful treaty controversy in the United States senate, declared that, after a protracted period of criticism anc of quibbling over the texture and phraseology of the league of nations covenant— “Senator Lodge crystallized his ideas Into what were known as the Lodge reservations, and when con- gress adjourned these reseryations held the support of the so-called regular republican leaders.” Further, “The first duty of the new admin- istration clearly will be the ratifi- cation of the treaty. The matter should be. approached without thought of the bitterness of the past. The public verdict will have “en rendered, and I am confident t the friends of world peace, as é will be promoted by the league, ’ AwHl have in numbers the constitu- dential preference campaign tional requisite to favorable sena- torial action.” : And, finally, “The point is, that after the peo- ple shall have spoken, the league will be in the hands of its friends in the senate, AND A SAFE IN- DEX AS TO WHAT THEY WILL DO is SUPPLIED BY WHAT RESERVATIONS THEY HAVE PROPOSED IN THE PAST.” There is the whole thing in a nutshell—and it fits the Georgia - situation like the bark on a tree! Here we have running for sen- ator, first, Tom Watson, who is bitterly opposed to the league of ‘nations In any form; absolutely at leoggerheads—notoriously so—with the democratic administration and the cardinal planks of the demo- cratic national placform. -$econd, Senator Smith, who, during the treaty fight in the sen- ate, lined up with the republicans and, as a member of the “poison squad,” made common cause with the enemies of the administration; who has even. boastingly claimed authorship of the “Lodge reserva- tions,” denounced by Cox, and who shortly following the recent presi- in ~ Georgia, in which Smith ran third in a field of three, declared that -“—T am against the whole d—d * thing!” Governor Dorsey’s record, in of- fice and as a private citizen, is without a suggestion of a blemish; “ this standing as a democrat is ab- golutely untarnished; his stead- fast loyalty to his country, his state, the boys who fought in the : war, and to the national demo- cratic administration never has been questioned. In his formal statement announcing trance in the senatorial contest, he declared that he is whole- a g Jeague. of nations, and, “against the Lodge reservations,” fathered by Senator Smith, “because,” said Governor Dorsey, “we cannot ¢njoy the benefits of the covenant with- out assuming some of the obliga- tions of the covenant, and the Lodge reservations cuts the heart out of the treaty.” Watson: Out-and-out, openly avowed enemy of the administra- tion and.the league of nations principle. Smith: Masked enemy of the administration, and a timid would- be straddler of the paramount is- sue in the national campaign. Dorsey: Out-and-out loyal] friend of the administration, openly avowed supporter of the league of nations principle, “unalterably op- posed” to the “reservations,” which Senator Smith says he wrote for Lodge, and which would, as Gov- ernor Cox, the presidential nomi- nee of the party, says, would cut the very heart out of the league of nations covenant! Georgia democrats, are you g0- ing to do all that you can to make sufe that, when President Cox takes office as Woodrow Wilson’s successor, “the league will be in the hands of its friends in the senate?” } Being loyal democrats of Geor- gia, of course you will! If you feel that way about it, your only possible recourse is to support Dorsey for the senate. FARM BUREAUS. The Georgia Farm Bureau Feder- ation is engaged in promoting a commendable movement in the direction of rural happiness and prosperity in this state, and one that. deserves the hearty co-opera- tion and support of Georgia farm- ers, business men and citizens gen- erally. This organization is only a unit of the American Farm Bureau Fed- eration, which embraces twenty- eight states and has a membership of more than 700,000 farmers and farm women. The national organ- ization has a budget of $200,000 for expenditure, through its bureaus in Washington and its several sub- sidiary distribution centers, in be- half of better farm living condi- tions and in the interests of farm- ers generally. \ The parent federation is divided into state units, which are them- selves divided into county units; and it is essentially “an organiza- tion of farmers, for farmers, and officered by farmers.” It has a number of the leading agriculturists of the country in charge of its various bureaus, such, for example, as the™”bureau of transportation, rail and water; the bureau of trades relations with for- eign countries; the bureau of dis- tribution for farm products;~ the bureau of statistics to determine supply and demand; a bureau for studying co-operative methods among farmers, and a legislative bureau which has to do with mat- ters of national legislation which affect farming and farmers. The present movement in Geor- gia, officially designated as a “farm bureau campaign,” is being promoted through a series of meetings at which the leading speakers and demonstrators are J. W. Coverdale, secretary of the American Farm Bureau Federation, Chicago; James W. Morton, presi- dent of Georgia Farm Bureau Fed- eration; J. Phil Campbell, direc- tor of extension work for Georgia, and Mrs. Bessie S. Wood, super- visor of home demonstration work. This is a state-wide campaign, the itinerary including Athens, Cartersville, Newnan, Covington, Milledgeville, Metter, Fitzgerald, Thomasville and Vienna, the final meeting, at Vienna, to be held on August 12. The purpose of it is to increase interest in the principle of the bu- reau federation idea, to establish new county units—of which there are already 56 in this state—and to impress upon the farmers and business men of Georgia a realiza- tion of the significance of this movement as offering a great field for helpful, constructive service to the people. It is in the interest of better farming, better rural life condi- tions; and any movement directed to such an end should be encour- aged. Neither Hoke Smith nor Tom Hardwick attended the doings at Dayton last Saturday, as each had boasted he had been “invited” to do; but despite that fact it seems | that the little party was pulled off successfully, and that the usual “good time was had by all pres- ent.” It is regrettable that Hoke Smith was not within earshot of the next president at Dayton last Saturday, for some things were said about “the next senate” which it would have done the self-styled author of the Lodge reservations no harm to have heard. Anyhow, Governor Cox demon- strated the fact that he is not afraid to call a league a league. heartedly and aggressively for the’ Bits of New York Life By 0. —0. MINTYRE New York, August 8.—(Special.)— A page from the diary of a modern Samuel Pepps: Up vbetimes, the wind high and a strange glow over the city. Came Miss H. Underhill, the scrivener, from Saranac, fully re- tarts each and drank many beakers indeed. This day I set out to clean out the clothes press and found my [weeties suit, which I donned and went before my wife, poor wretch, and we laughed all the morning. Through the town afoot and to F. Ziegfeld’s, where came Téddie Ge- rard, newly here from London, and a bright lady, well spoke. And there jwere_some mechanical horses there and E. Royce came and we had a race, I losing and hurting my back and in great pain, which I tried not to show.. I am resolved to quit foolishness. To lunch with Hickman, the band- man, and we ate three blackberry tarts each and drank many beakers of cold milk, and M. Leuscher, the hipodrome man, came and talked long of the new show at his play- house and how they have all learned to love the elephants with a strange devotion. In the evening read “Harriet and the Piper,” Mistress Kathleen Morris’ new book, which she hath sent me, and find it a mighty brave tale. Then, with m ydog and she-cozzens for a walk and to the apothecary, Where I paid nobly for iced drinks. And so home to bed, A group of the lads in highly- Slashed coats, wrist watches and pommaded looks, stoodat their usu- al post in front of the Palace thea- ter the other afternoon about 3 o'clock. They had just breakfasted, and were buoyant. Each seems to have squirrel] teeth and incurable acne, and the yare a distinct type, indigenous to Broadway only. One stood off from his fellows to give the passsers-by a better view. He had all his scenery aboard. Checkered trousers, black coat, yel- low vest, purple shirt, yellow tie, plaid spats, mountainous-toed shoes and a trick derby jammed down over his ears. A breezy westerner stood across where the autos are parked watch- ing him. He wore suspenders and his coat was hung over his arm and he wore the wide felt hat. Finally he stepped over and walked around the young man. Then he tapped him on the shoulder. “Son,” he said, “I have been look- ing for a good laugh since I landed in town a week ago. You've given it to me. Thanks.” And he shook hands and walked away. I passed the furnished rooming houseon Fifty-sixth street yester- day, where Dr. H. E. Campbell, for years aprosperous Pittsburg physi- cian, died in poverty. He was a dish-washer at Shanley’s. His brace of fine St. Bernard dogs proved his chiefinterest.

Jack DempSey is training in the vacant lot belonging to the Y. M.'C. A. on West Fifty-seventh street. Windows of all the houses and buildings surrounding the block are crowded with faces from 3 o’clock, when Dempsey arrives, un- til 6, when he leaves. And yet, some New Yorkers are curiously unalert to what is going on about them. The man in the drug store directly across from the entrance asked me, following a small purchase, what was going On across the street. =a Former Smith Supporters Sick at the Stomach Editor Constitution: pure, militant democracy and 100 per cent Americanism, Governor Dorsey’s entrance into the senato- rial race is most comforting and reassuring. A sigh of relief was most audible in good old democrat- ic Georgia from the mountains to; the sea. The governor’s reluctance to en- ter was pardonable and reminds one of the old farmer’s reply when asked if he could skin a skunk. “Yes,” he said, “but 1 don’t hanker after the job.” Dorsey should have, as he: will, the undivided sympathy and sup- port of all who love honor, state pride and pure, unadulterated de- mocracy. i Hoke’s anxiety now to defend the party and the administration against the attack of Watson—well, it is to laugh! He lost that oppor- tunity at the recent convention, when he joined in with the Watson- Hardwick condemnation proceed- ings. The turncoat! having voted for sickens me. Atlanta, Ga. To simon- The memory of him in the past L. C. ROBERTS. Some Hot Shot From an Ex-Private Editor Constitution: Having read an. article relative to speech made by Tom Watson, which mentioned the fact that an ex-soldier made a speech regarding the treatment which he received while in the army. It was commented on that other ex-service men stated that his speech was “exaggerated.” No doubt but what it was. If that man went into the army expecting to find a bed of down quilts and chicken a la king served with silverware and finger bowls, why, then, he had a mighty poor conception of the army, especially in war times. I would like to inquire just what outfit he was in. He either did not get overseas, or was in the §., O. S. Anyone with common sense must know that war’ means discomforts and hardships, and is not a bed of roses, by any means. I have the honor of wearing three battle clasps on my Victory medal; have gone thirty-six and forty-eight hours without food; have dodged machine gun bullets and shrapnel. Have lain all night in a fox hole with six inches of water, eaten up by cooties, and would gladly do the same again, and there are thou- sands of others who would do the same over again if it was neces- sary. Iam not an ex-officer, but an ex- enlisted man. Am a member of the Atlanta post, No.* 1, American Legion, and stand for what the legion stands ifor, and that goes for its recently adoptea resolution in opposition to Tom Watson and Tom Hardwick holding two of the high- est offices that the people of this state could but will not confer upon them. GEORGE F. PERRY. The Bible in the Schools. Editor Constitution: Anent the reading of the Bible in public schools, I thought this matter was settled at the polls.

I did on. byte . If it is possible to eliminate the vote this way. why have a vote? MRS. PAUL HAYNES GILBERT. 396 Allene Avenue, Atlanta, Ga. Of Watson, Smith and Hardwick GEORGIA’S “MASTER STRAD- (Mrs. Bettv Cobb, in The Talbotton Free Press.) We do not like to find fault with our~ program committee, the mem- bers of which we do not know— not having had the occasion to know, during the months of prepa- ration, but we cannot refrain from saying that a welcome address from any of these organizations, or a .report, a speech or what not, would have been-a great deal more seemly and more enjoyable than a politi- cal speech from that master strad- dler of Georgia, the Hon Hoke Smith, to whom the fearless Mr. John Shannon, of The Commerce News; paid his compliments in no doubtful terms. FEE FOR WHAT? (From The’ Rome Tribune.) Hardwick has publicly admitted receiving a fee of $30,000 from Mar- tens. We thought it was $50,000 he got. It will also be remembered that this money was received as a fee for defending a man who is trying to destroy the government of the United States, and is spread- ing bolshevist propaganda all over the country. Do we want ¢hat kind of a man for governor Of Geor- gia? BEST MAN WILL WIN, (From The Bristol Herald.) The Georgia race may become a triangular cOntest between Gover- nor Dorsey, Hoke Smith and Tom Watson. It is to be hoped the best man will win—or, in other words that Smith and Watson will be de- feated. AND ONLY ONE HARDWICK. (By Mary Jarrett White in The m Toccoa Record.) What a mistake voters have made! What’a pity that the Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick cannot fill all the of- fices of the state where brains ang efficiency are required. What will }poor Georgia do with only one Hardwick, and so many positions needing men of brains and ability. How proud the Empire State of the south should, feel that one of her sons should be singled out by a bol- shevist from Russia to defend him from “Woodrow, the _ Terrible.” When the horrible government at Washington suggested sending this outlaw back to Russia where there is: no law except the “law of might,” it seems he could not find a lawyer in New York, Philadel- phia, Washington or other large cities who would suit his purpose so well as our very own ommy Hardwick, so down ‘to the sunny south he sends for a real lawyer, a real democrat, a real friend of the “dear people” who have been de- luded so long by thinking that there were other brainy men in our state, Farmers, rejoice! Deliverance is at hand! It is almost at our door. “Hardwick, the wonderful,” will soon deliver us from this “mon- strous ring’’ which is grinding us down with their heels upon our necks. The & O. S. call has been an- swered by the only friend of the “dear farmers” who are getting al- most 45 cents for cotton, corn, wheat, oats, chickens, butter, eggs and other farm products in propor- tion. Isn’t this terrible on “us” poor farmers. All this will be ad- justed when the Great Hardwick, the Deliverer of Georgia, says “Hell” a few more times and the deafening roar of applause which greets the mention of this popular word, means annihilation for this awful “ring.” When he eliminates the democratic and ‘boll weevil’ from south Georgia, the army worm frem north Georgia, When he calms the troub- lous waters of discontent that he Says has been sweeping over our state, caused by this awful “ring,’’ perhaps he can be persuaded by this “Russian ambassador” to go to that land of riot and bloodshed, and doubtless he can bring it back te a state of peace and happiness. Let’s hope that such will be the case, wen Rusia’s loss will be our gain. hicteite DORSEY FOR THE SENATE. (l‘rom The Savannah Press.) If there ever was a time when the democracy of Georgia wanted a straight-out stalwart candidate for United States senator, that now. Hon. Hugh that fact, has yielded to the request of his friends and consented to make the race. The request came not alone from his pers@nal friends, but from the friends déf-democracy in this state who realized the im- portance during this residential year of having a standard bearer whe represented the principles of the party and who would present them in the campaign which is now before us. He has ‘been loyal to the administration, whose record is now the paramount issue in the state and nation. He has stood with the national party in its record in war and in peace. His’ splendid service to the party and to the peo- ple has been emphasized during the four years’ administration of the office of chief executive of Georgia. He stands for service and loyalty— has been an able and useful admin- istrator of a practical and progres- sive character and has not swerved in his advocacy of the general gov- ernment in its glorious and success- ful conduct of the war and in its liberal and enlightened policy to ingure the peace of the world. THE CROSS OF IRON, (From The Macon Telegraph.) Hugh Dorsey has sacrificed him- self to save his state. No matter what color the ball stops on, he will not gain great riches. Personal in- terests appealed ‘strongly to him to decline to make the race. The next four years of his life are important ones to him in many ways. He of- fered to support other good men if they would come forward. But these men realized, as did others, that Hugh Dorsey was the man to take charge of the feathered arrows sent into the camp of democracy. ’ Tom Watson and Tom Hardwick are at work in Georgia like beav- ers trying to chip away the foun- dations of the legion. They reason that it would ever be their enemy, and they have decreed its death and duly signed the warrant. We did not think it would come to the point.where Watson would make a direct attack upon the boys who fought, because he was the legal representative of those who did not fight. We Knew full well he would plead for his clients in jail, but we could not think of a lawyer assault- ing those who refused to become his clients, It is Georgia’s duty to defend to the utmost those who recently de- fended her. To make Tom Hard- wick the governor of this state, and Tom Watson the senator from Geor- gia, would be but setting up in power those who left no stone un- turned to cut the line of communi- cation between the United States and our own boys in the far trench- es, facing the enemy. They did all in their power to stop the sending of American soldiers to Europe aft- er a half a million of our boys had landed on the foreign shore. The kaiser must have been. tickled, in- deed—they merit the German cross! Can not the law against the accept- ance of foreign awards be suspend- ed for a little while that they may receive it?.~ They made effort to stop the sending of loans to the European nations with whom we were allied and who at the time were on the brink of defeat. They made effort to stop the sending of foodstuffs, arms and ammunition, and other supplies to the allied soldiers rs) were standing in the same trencfes with our boys when they were most needy. And Watson and Hardwick, if they had succeeded, would have stranded a half million of brave American lads in the Argonne and other forests, with millions of hell- ish, revengeful Huns surrounding them with fixed bayonets—the saw- teeth kind—awaiting the first op- portunity to break the weakening : ey oh le Be ee, A Xs ithe counties, | faith line and send down into the mire crushed, bleeding bodies of Geor- gia and other American boys. HOKE SMITH’S SAD DAY. (From The Corcete Dispatch.) Under solemn pledge the Smith delegates in the Smith-Watson com- bine in an Atlanta theater on May 18 last enrolled themselves to do the bidding of Thomas E. Watson for one day. That) was the darkest day in’ the political career of a party leader who had been Called to stand for the a of this state. Hoke Smith, if he has a spark of. manhood in him, would rue. that day. Now Georgia must fight the Wat- son firebrand, must fight for the honor and loyalty of her democracy when that has never been question- ed before. Now we must fight po- litically for our own integrity as we fought-to win the war against Germany. Now we are assailed on every side by an ulterior influence espoused in some way, directly or indirectly, by Watson himself of a | Watson man asking for something. Senator Smith has some fighting ahead if he succeeds in shutting Tom Watson up. The debate will not do it. That will only open up the noise wider, and will reveal that Watson loves just such noise. Sena- tor Smith cannot come back by bullying shots at Watson now. It is too late. The only thing is a battle to the political death with this man of many evils. | Senator Smith does not end it by a dare to mae There is more to settle—more t even he knew we would have to settle, more than ever he thought the people of Georgia would hold against him when he was poisoning the atmos- phere with a pledge to serve Tom Watson just one day! We have now to fight the star performer, Watson himself, and we have to fight the lHeutenant who badly, jumbled the day’s proceed- ings, Tom Hardwick. When the day was over, Senator Smith, gloat- ing and satisfied that he had slash- ed his party chief, his party itself and his friends in Georgia till there was little rich blood left, then went off to sleep smiling in glee. He had won. z Let us see. He has now more on his hands than a debate with Tom Watson. It is too late for him to work well as the@party hero, the champion of all the. things, the principles, the party leader he slew with great sledge hammers and bowie knives and helped Watson to bury. Think of Hoke Smith fight- ing for the great principles Wood- row Wilson has given his life for! What a strange, strange world! WATSON AND SMITH. (From The Franklin News.) Tom. Watson has decided to run for United States senator, opposing Senator Smtih, and in order to catch votes declares that he will support Cox and Roosevelt, the democratic presidential nominees. At the May convention Smith and Watson were arm-in-arm and both hugging Hardwick. Why such an_e early split? Yet we have constantly seen this periodic fighting and hugging between Watson and. Bolsheviki Hardwick especially. Says Knight Resolution Will Kill Bond Issue Editor Constitution: The Knight resolution or any other p*taw which will distribute the state highway money to the counties, be it tem- porary or permanent, will tend to kill any possibility of a bond issue. The argument that distribution to the counties is essential to the pas- sage of the bond issue is absolutely fallacious and will permanently kill the possibilities of the passage of the bond issue. If such action pre- vails, it is to be hoped that Gover- nor Dorsey will veto it. By the time the people have seen the results of distributing money tc they will justly lose whole state highway plan. This, instead of stimulating them to vote the bond issue, whll in the time is) M. Dorsey recognizes | have the opposite effect. The whole proposition has been grossly mismanaged during the cur- rent year, especially in the failure to organize in favor of a specific plan. And I now prophesy the com- plete failure of the bond issue and continued interference and delays in constructing the state highway sys- tem, whether or not the governor vetoes the plan to distribute the money to the counties, unless the state is organized in favor of a specific plan. The carrying on of propaganda through any organization formed for other purposes than the specific one of a “system of permanent state highways for Georgia’ will fail in accomplishing desired results. This last is made more certain be- cause of the (a) attitude of the American Automobile association opposing bond issues based on au- tomobile tax; (b) because of the apparent confusion among, and dif- ference between, the presumed highway advocates on which the politicians play for personal advan- tage; (c) because of the increasing difficulty of securing road mate- rials and that it will require from two to three times more money to build the state highway system than was contemplated in the orig- inal plan: (d) because ill-advised statements of over-sanguine high- way advocates have created wrong ideas in the minds of the people as to the character of highways to be constructed and as to when con- struction wil! Be completed; (e) and because of the unremitting deter- mination of many Georgia citizens to keep the business of the state in politics. The new state highway commis- sioneand plan have absolutely prov- en their efficiency, and under the circumstances, the actual construc- tion and organization accomplished has been nothing short of phenom- enal. To the efficiency of the plan and the personnel of the highway department is due the credit. The interference proposed by the Knight resolution is an insult to the plan and to the department and will cost the state many more millions in inexcusable and senseless delay. The plan to raise several hundred thousand dollars to advertise Geor- gia is commendable, but one-tenth of the cost of that plan, if put into the proper organization of the state for a system of permanent state highways. will bring more people and capital to the state (in addi- tion to saving many, many millions of dollars wasted for lack of suffi- cient transportation) than the whole advertising plan. Why is it that so vital a necessity as _ increasing transportation facilities, dependent upon the early’ construction of a state system of highways for Geor- gia, is interfered with and side- tracked for superficial endeavor. which will not stand economic anal- ysis. . In the name of common sense, what do we want with more people and more business in Georgia when every person and every business in the state is languishing because of wholly inadequate transportation? Georgia's state highway plan can easily be wrecked and the fine work so auspiciously begun be lost. or it can be saved and can be put over through organization. LELAND J.

HOLLOMON AO LO RS ARI ERIC HSI AEA Om Le rgia Situation ? RE ene ar es On Friday, August 6, in Atlanta,) Governor Hugh M.

The national democratic party had already regarded the league as the paramount issue, in the San Francisco platform. The people of America, regard- less of party, regard it as the par- amount issue, and will continue to do so so long as America remains technically at war, as it is today, with all its attendant business and industrial disturbances. Indeed, the American people, ir- respective of party and despite the frantic efforts of Senator Harding to keep out. of the campaign that which his own ‘senate cabinet”, threw into it, will continue—Irre- vocably continue—to regard it as a paramount issue until the treaty of peace, without nullification, as de- signed by the Lodge reservations, ig ratified, and peace thus made legal, permanent and everlasting. . 7 7 > National Platform On the Treaty. On the league of nations the democratic national platform, adopt- ed at San Francisco on the 24d of July, declared: “The democratic party vors the league of nations as the surest, if not the only, fa- practicable means of maintain- ing the permanent peace of the world and terminating the in- sufferable burden of great ~ military and naval establish- ments. « « “We condemn the republican senate for its refusal to ratify the treaty merely because :t was the product of democratic statesmanship, thus interposing partisanship, envy and persona! hatred in the way of the peace and renewed prosperity of the world. “We indorse the presideut’s view of our international obli- gations and his firm stand against reservations designed to cut to pieces the vital provi- sions of the Versailles treaty, and we commend the democrats in congress for voting against resolutions for separate peace which would disgrace the na- tion. We advocate the immedi- ante ratification of the treaty without reservations which would impair its essential in- tegrity: but do net oppose the acceptance of any reservations |, treaty as brought making clearer or more specific the obligations of the United States to the league associates.” te * = + ' Governor Dorsey On the Treaty. | Governor Dorsey in his formal} announcement on Friday said: “The issue made by the re- publican party, in opposing all effort to associate the nations of the world to suppress wars, to liberate small nations anda to restrain the rapacious desire of some nations to extend their territorial limits. cannot be avoided—and ought not to be evaded—in this campaign. A full debate on tHe covenant submitted by President Wilson might have teen helpful to him in negotiating a wneace treaty. Partisan and embittered oppo- sitfon to anything proposed by our president, merely because by him proposed, has marked the course of the covenant In the United States senate. The president has never declared that he opposed all modifica- tions of, or reservations to, the treaty. Some clarifying reser- vations would have been ac- ceptable to him, and had our democratic senators presented a united front with the president and endeavored to have adopted only those reservations which were clarifying or interpre- tative, the treaty would have been ratified months ago>..., “Some interpretations of the Proposed treaty are worthy of adoption, as, for example, an ex- press declaration that under the | constitution, war cannot be de- clared or soldiers sent abroad | without a concurrent resolution | of both houses of the congress; a clearer definition in thetreaty |. of what are considered by our | people as domestic questions, | the control over which this na- tion does not yield; and others of a like nature. But to the Lodge reservation, I am unal- terably opposed.” = * + Gov. James M. Cini On the Treaty. Governor Cox, nomination for in accepting the president by the democratic party, made the league the paramount issue, favored une- quivocally the Wilson treaty with only interpretative reservations, and denounced the Lodge reserva- tions as “emasculating.””: He said: “In the midst of war the pres- ent senatorial cabinet, led by Senators Lodge, Penrse and Smoot, was formed. Superfi- cial evidence of loyalty to the president was deliberate in order that the great rank and file of their party, faithful and patriotic to the very core, might not be offended.

From that hour dated the enterprise of throwing the whole subject into a technical discussion, in order that the pub- lic might be confused. The plan has never been changed in its objective, but the, method has. At the outset there’ was the care- ful insistence that there was no desire to interfere with the principle evolved and formalized at Versailles: Later, it was the form and not the substance that professedly inspired attack. “But pretense was futile when proposals later came forth that clearly emasculated the basic principle of the whole Peace plan. It is not necessary to re- call the details of the contro- versy in the senate. Senator Lodge finaly crystallized his ideas into what were known as the dge reservations, and when congress adjourned these reservations held the support of the so-called regular republican leaders.” To summarize— The national democratic party, in itsarticles of faith, stands for the league of nations, with interpreta- tive reservations, and denounces the Lodge reservations as nullifying. Governor Cox, the democratic can- didate for president, stands for the league of nations, With interpeta- tive reservations, and denounces the Lodge reservations as “emascu- lating.” -Governor Dorsey, candidate for the senate in Georgia, stands for the league of nations, with interpreta- tive reservations, and decjares his opposition to the Lodge resfrvations, which he declares to be nullifying. There can be no question, there- fore, as to what is democratic faith, and as to the loyalty of the demo- cratic candidate for president, and the democratic candidate for senator in Georgia. Senator Hoke Smith And His Platform. Now, what does Senator Hoke Smith stand for, and what part did he play in the attempt to estab- lish a permanent peace by the rati- fication of the Versailles treaty? In the long senate fight over the ratification of‘the treaty during the summer and fall of 1919 and the spring of 1920, Senator Smith, of Georgia—who now seeks re-elec- tion as a democrat om the demo- cratic platform of 1920, above quoted—with Gore and one or two others—joined the Henry Cabot Lodge republican faction to “emas- culate” the treaty, as Governor Cox terms it, with a number of speeches on the floor against the back by the president, and voted for the Lodge reservations to nullify it; that is, to destroy it by a process no less effective than the process of the “irreconcilables,.” such as Borah, Johnson and Reed, of the senate, supported from the outside by such layman “irreconcilables” as Wil- liam Randolph Hearst and Thomas E. Watson. By this move of a handful of democratic—“poison squad,” as Senator John Sharp Williams called them—insurgents, the treaty failed of ratification. Had the democrats stood solidly for ratification with interpretative reservations, the treaty would have been adopted, and the peace of America long since fundamentally established. Following this, Senator Smith entered a campaign in Georgia in April. 1920, and spoke against the from the mountains to the sea, elaiming that he (Smith) was actually the author of the Lodge and voted for. He subsequently stated in the lobby of the Piedmont hotel that His actual, written platform, how- the Watson delegates, in combina- tion eontrol, adepted the following the faith of “the democratic “Resolved, by the democratic party of Georgia, in convention assembled: ‘That we hereby declare our unalterable opposition to the league of nations brought back from Versailles by President Wilson. “We hereby request and in- struct the delegates from Geéor- gia to the national democratic convention te suppert no candi- date for president of the United States who is not in thorough accord with the principles as announced by this convention, and said delegates shall vote as a unit in the national demo- cratic convention on all ques- tions before that body, in ac- cordance with the will of this convention.” At the same time, in the same convention the Smith and Watson delegates VOTED DOWN the fol- lowing resolution: “Be is resolved, by the presi- dential preference convention, that we de hereby approve and indorse the splendid accom- plishments of the democratic administration under the lead- ership of the t democratic executive, President Woodrow Wilson, with the aid of the democratic representatives in peace the voters of America must elect to the United States senate © true and loyal democrats, so that” the greatest of all covenants for the * everlasting peace of the world may” be “in the hands of its friends nn the senate.” 4 Says the Next President. Governor Cox did not have the. Georgia situation in mind, of course, -é in his speech of acceptance, and his words are only those of any up- Standing, courageous democrat who has the force of conviction and the firmness" of political character Stand militantly and unflinchingly behind his faith. But how true. th a ring to Georgia conditions today are the following words from his memorable address— 4 “The mistakes of history are the result of weakness in the face of tempting interests. We are in a time which calls fer — straight thinking, straight talk- ing and straight acting. This is no time for wobbling. Never tn all our history has more been. done. for government. Never was sacrifice more sublime. The most precious things of heart and home were given up tn a spirit which guarantees the per- petuity of our institutions—if the faith its kept with those who served and suffered. The altar of our republic is drench- ed in blood and tears, and he who turns away from the trag- edies and obligations of the war, not consecrated to a sense of honor and of duty which re- Sists every base suggestion of personal or political expediency, iS unworthy of the esteem of his countrymen.” oo + ~~ . “THE MISTAKES OF HIS- TORY ARE THE RESULT OF WEAKNESS IN THE FACE OF TEMPTING INTERESTS!” How these words must burn the senior senator from Georgia, who is now scrambling to catch on to the Cox coat tail, when he reflects. upon his voting record, his spoken” words, and the platform of his May 18 convention!

The headquarters of .Governor Dorsey will be opened today in the Kimball, and an intense and vigor- ous campaign will be waged. un- dreds of his friends from all over Georgia have volunteered to come to Atlanta and assist in the details, but organization work will be con- ducted so thoroughly in each coun- ty that the services of these friends will be required in their respective sections. The potent fact that practically all of the newspapers in Georgia are for Dorsey has occasioned a great deal of comment, and the most ardent supporters of opposing candidates admit that this is an in- fluence that will be difficult to overcome, as newspapers are leaders of public opinion, and in such col- lective action, have mever been known to make a mistake, or to size up a situation incorrectly. Governor Dorsey will not be able to get into the campaign until after he has finished up _ his legislative labors. The assembly adjourns on Wednesday and it will take him sev- eral days to finish up signing bills and clearing the details imposed upon him by the session. The last of the present month, however, he will make a whirl-wind tour of all the state that he can physically reach. : In the governor's race Walker will spend the week in southwest Georgia.

SPIRITUALITY NOW AT LOW EBB HERE, CLAIMS HOLDERBY Dr. A. R. Holderby, pastor of the Past Point Presbyterian church, de- livered a very forceful and inter- esting sermon Sunday morning, using as his text, “The Old Paths; the Good Ways.” In part Dr. Hol- derby’s sermon is as follows: There is but little real, vital religion In the church today. Spirituality is at a very low ebb, and the church has lost much of its wer. peThe good old way in which our fathers walked hag given place to a weak and flabby type of religion, and the preaching of the old gospel of Christ and Him crucified, has well nigh paseed away. It is seldom that we hear from ee the doctrine of repentance toward G and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. The preacher who dares to preach against the desecration of Sunday is denounced as a Puritan and a crank. But it is no mat- ter of surprise that the day is desecrated, when the president of the United States sets the example as he has recently done by arranging and holding a political confer- ence with Governor Cox in the white house, and that, too, at the time for the morning service. Our esteemed and honored president has certainly blundered. As a consequence of this, from now on, the day will be more enerally violated, . The ovenemnant of the United States, to- gether with the chief executive, has for- saken the old paths of the gospel. . Builds Own Home In Order to Reduce Living Expenses Because rents are so high Thomas Brass, master sergeant in the signal corps of the army, 1s building his house with his own hands at the Georgia School of Technology, where he is in charge of the signal corps unit of the R. O. F. C. Brass is detailed to Tech for four years. In two and one-half years, however, he will have served his thirty years’ enlistment in the army and may retire on full pay. Thus, it would seem he is foolish to build a house at his post when he may give it up within two years after its completion. But, figure it his way. “My rent has been $50 a month, he says. “September it jumps to $65. If I pay $65 a month for the next two years I put out more than $1,500, and there may be another raise next September. I can build my house for $600 at a minimum. which is a clear saving of $900.” The $600 is the cost of materials to Brass. He is furnishing his own labor and the board of trustees of Tech agreed to let him have the ground, a vacant space near the campus, free. They would have ' given him a room in the Tech plant but there are no rooms to be had. Brass is building his home aftr hours jin the afternoon and before he begins work in the worning. It will consist of two rooms, living and dining room and kitchen, and a bath, and he hopes to have it fin- ished by September 1.

Tobacco markets have been con- ducted at Douglas, Nashville, Vida- lia and Valdosta. There have been large crowds, active trading and very satisfactory prices. The farm- ers appear to have “caught on” to the growing of the crop. very quickly, and they have begun to have great faith in it. It is estimated that this year the acreages in the Georgia and Flor- |! ida counties have been: Berrien' county, 2,000; Coffee county, 4,000; Jeff Davis, 750: Lowndes, 600; Toombs, 1,000; Emanuel, 300; Mont- gomery, 400; Burke, 400; Jefferson county, 60. The total crop is 9,460 acres. The yield is about 700) pounds to the acre, or about 6,- 662,000 pounds, worth about $2,317,- 000. The money yield per acre has been about $245.

AUTOMOBILE TIRES LOWER NOW THAN FIVE YEARS AGO Car owners who are holding back on the purchase of tire equipment in the hope of a reduction in prices |are likely to be disappointed. There is nothing in the tire manufactur- ing situation to indicate a down- ward trend of tire costs. On the contrary, a “break” that will necessarily mean the advancing of prices seems inevitable. A resume of the tire industry and the conditions under which it has developed in the last decade, causes the casual observer to wonder, in fact, that tire prices have not al- ready begun to climb steadily. Unless one studies carefully the underlying reasons for the success- ful checking of tire prices in the face of overwhelming advances in virtually every other commodity, ‘t is rather amazing to note that prices now are much lower’ than they were ten years ago. It is stil! more interesting to compare prices of standard manufacture tires to- day with prices of the same prod- uct at the beginning of the war. Good tires now cost no more @ian in 1914. There has not even been an appreciable advance in the last two years. And yet the quality is higher and the purchaser gets more value for his money than ever be- fore. No Decrease Likely. When one considers that prices of raw material, labor and transporta- tion have made more tremendous leaps in the last five years than during any period in manufactur- ing history the natural query con- |; cerning the manufacturers is “How do they hold down the prices?” And from this question comes the answer to another, “Will the prices go down?” It does not appear that a decrease is hikely. Manufacturing genius, which has about reached its limit, has kept down the cost to the tire user. The Standard manufacturer has combat- ed price increases by developing his processes. He has expended millions of dollars in the installa- tion of new machinery, better ma- opment 4 and new methods. He has rought his output up to maximum and has°made his protrits on a quan- tity margin. He has smashed over- head expenses by use of these weap- ons and by putting his distribution on such a broad basis as to make it economical. Output has about reached its zen- | ith. So long as demand continues strong there is a possibility that tire prices will remain on present level. termination to “hold out” should spread among car owners it is more than probable that such an attitude would tend to create a reverse ef- tire prices rocketing. Some Price Comparisons. An illustration of the surprising | | facts recited here may be obtained from the following table of price comparisons compiled recently by a'| leading tire and rubber company.

Georgia has. in her streams undeveloped water power amounting to 2,152,- 850 horsepower, equivalent to 21,528,500 tons of coal annually thrown away _ for lack of development. The corporations do not pretend to ” able to develop this power. ~ On the contrary, the strongest of the five companies now dominating the power situation in Georgia, the company controlling approximately one- fifth of the undeveloped water power, confesses that, without a raise in the rates, which are already exorbitant compared with the Ontario rates, the company can get no capital to do anything. THE MUNICIPAL LEAGUE PROGRAM No organization in the state has ever outlined for itself a more useful or important program than that which the Municipal League of Georgia, composed of . the mayors, city attorneys and other prominent citizens of the municipalities throughout the state has laid down and for which it is now urging the support of the gen- _eral public. . In a word, this purpose is to develop the priceless water power of Georgia streams, now going to waste, -and turn it_to the use of our people. it is pointed out ™. that Georgia has 2,100,000 horsepower in her streams ‘ and rivers, and yet up to last July only 230,000 horse- - power of this tremendous potential force has been de- veloped, leaving 1,870,000 horsepower going to waste. When we realize how thuch work is being accom- plished by the smadi amount of water power now in use in Georgia and turn to what might be accomplished if the additional power were made available, we realize how great is the task which the Municipal League of | Georgia has undertaken. There is a growing coal famine in the state. The prospects are that in the near future, many people will be unable to Cotton gins and factories in the ; ; When we say that the League hopes to encourage | development of this water power, we state merely ‘ broad purpose, and the details are even more inter- esting and more compelling. The plan cf campaigny indicated by literature which has just beex sent out by Secretary John, W. Greer, includes: e? ' > heap hydro-electric power for use in city, town and country. The reclamation of the flooded lands of Georgia. "The elimination of the mosquito and malaria in the atate of Georgia. _ The extension of navigation on the navigable streams of Georgia. ¥ i It is impossible to overestimate the benefits that would be derived from carrying out the foregoing pro- gram. So far as cheap electricity is concerned, we know that in the province of Ontario, Canada, where the province and the municipalities are co-operating to supply current for their own use, a farmer has been able to light his house and outhouses and operate his dairy and light machinery on a bill of $25 for electricity for a year. The average bill for electricity for a home in Toronto, the capital of Outario, is eighty-nine cents a month. This is at least eleven cents less than is pos- sible in any city in Georgia, where the minimum is $1. if the work of development is left in the hands of private individuals it will probably require a hundred years to develop our full water power, and the cost of light and power, if we may accept the experience of 250 towns and cities in Canada and about 1,000 in the United States, will be twice as high as if it were done by the municipalities. . And yet this is but the beginning of the story. There are tens of thousands of flooded lands in the te of Georgia that would blossom like the rose if | ey were drained as an incident to the development of e water power of the streams or as a direct project. is alluvial soil would be the richest in the state and us fould increase the value of our crops by millions of dollars. That this redeemed acreage would yield a handsome dividend upon the investment, whatever it might be, cannot be doubted. : Again, science has reached the definite conclusion that malaria and yellow fever are transmitted by the mosquito, and the burden laid upon the people of Geor- gia by the prevalence of malaria in certain sections and r more or less everywhere at certain seasons, unless — steps ahve been taken to combat it, is too well known to need elaboration. Surely the life and health of the people is a matter of supreme concern, and the pro- posed movement is a long step in the direction of pre- a 4 serving both. Here in Macon it surely is not necessary to speak at ee tength upon the importance of extending navigation on the navigable streams of Georgia. As an intrinsic con- “venience and as a safeguard against exorbitant freight . As an element in the agricultural and industrial a development of the state it is in the front rank. In short, the entire program of the Municipal League po ~ of Georgia is one which commends itself to the general public and the public-spirited officials and private citi- ‘a nens who are trying to arouse the people to the need of — _.

Therefore, it is necessary, very necessary, that some- thing be done, and just as Speedily as possible, for the relief of a situation that is already quite acute and which is certain to become more and more so unless relief is had. : The harnessing of the water power of Georgia and the use of electricity in the place of coal offer the only solution of the problem at present, and it seems that the most sensible thing to do is to take action as early as possible looking to the speedy development of this power. The legislature should act favorably on these bills before adjournment.—Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer-Sun. 3 SAVE OUR WATER POWER From week to week for three months past, Gazette has published the advertising of the Municipal League of Georgia. If any of our readers missed read- ing these, ‘they missed some powerful argument for the conservation of the water power of Georgia that | is now going to waste. It is urged that the state act in saving’this power for the people for two reasons: That it may be devel- oped many years earlier than would be possible if we await individual enterprise and to prevent the power falling into the hands of incorporate interests where it might be exploited for the benefit of those interests and not for the people’s good. ‘The rapidly diminishing fuel supply shows that the | day is at hand when we must depend on harnessed water for light and power, and the time is not so remote when we may have to depend thereon for heat also. This power is now largely going to waste; to harness and conserve it for the benefit of the people is what the Municipal League of Georgia is urging upon the state. ; Cheaper light appeals to all, and, as a measure of economy, is greatly to be desired, but cheap light is not so necessary as cheap power, Where a manufac- turer in one town must pay a higher rate for electric power than the manufacturer in another town in the same territory, that manufacturer is handicapped at the start in business competition. Not enough atten- tion is paid by municipal organizations and commer- cial bodies to this question of cheap power. All look at the lights first, and with blinded eyes overlook the great question of power, on which the profits of the manufacturing concern in a measure depend. /Yet, when boards of trade~or chambers of commerce go out after new manufacturing concerns, one of the first questions they must answer is the cost of power. And the town with the lowest rate gets the,new business; other things being equal. Moultrie has a chance to get hydro-electric power, according to The Observer. Last fall a survey of Cor- dele was made with the possibility of supplying such power. We know of no survey at Tifton, but this town is no farther from the source of contemplated supply than either of the others, and it might be secured here. It is a vital proposition and one worth looking into. Aside from the commercial aspect, there is the indi- | vidual’s interest in cheaper current; or, more properly | speaking, in a sufficient supply of, current for use in | every home in the state—suburban. as well as urb4dn. Household servants are raidly going, and the predic- | tion is made that they will soon disappear. The wash- | ing machine, operated by electricity, the electric iron, | the electric sweeper, are taking the place of the domes- | tic servants, with an immense saving in cost and a more efficient and satisfactory service. With electric cooking devices, we may soon see electricity doing the housework, and the servant problem will be remem- bered as a nightmare that will return no more. But for these things to come, we must have cheaper cur- + rent, for at present rates the average family can as little afford numerous electrical devices for the saving of labor as it can afford high-priced servants. On the farm, machinery is rapidly replacing unrelia- ble labor. But the -gasoline for the operation of this machinery is disappearing with other fuel. Soon the day will be here when stationary farm machinery must be operated by electricity if it is operated at all. Then the country home, tobe attractive and hold the boys and girls on the farm, must have the electric con- veniences that the urban home affords. So, we must have a sufficient supply of current to equip the farm, or we lose in production one of the most vital arteries of national life. | Some day we may see the water power convenient to Tifton, now considered worthless, harnessed into use, perhaps for two-thirds of the year, if not for the whole twelve months. It may be a far vision, but it is the far vision in these days of development that counts. Certainly a great service is being done the people of the sfate in the series of advertiséments which arc calling the attention of Georgians to the necessity for the prompt development of thé water powers that are now wasted, and for their development along lines that will insure that. the common people get the benefit from them—for they are the people’s heritage from their Creator.-Fifton eed Gazédtte The : | GEORGIA IS WASTING ENORMOUS _ WATER POWER ANNUALLY Georgia should stop the enédrmous waste of water power going on within her borders from year to year. Georgia is throwing away millions of wealth annu- ally, that she might just as well—and better—avail herself of. Primeval man first worked — fought for his own existence. Then he commanded lesser men to be his slaves. They trained animals to pull and carry for them. After theusands of years man mastered one after another the forces of nature to do his will—fire for his warmth, wind to ihe his sailboats, water to turn his wheels. The wheel was the father of all machinery and the miller set up the first power plant. When men came | to build cities they chose the banks of streams where the current was strong enough to grind their grain. In the dawn of civilization freight was moved on shipboard at the mercy of wind and wave, or on land in huge trains drawn by oxen. | The arts and sciences developed, literature was stared in libraries, kings and captains, teachers and philoso- phers, architects and sculptor8 rose to distinction ere the human race had harnessed any powers but those of dumb animals, the winds of the skies and the waters of flowing rivers to do their will. Then car:e the age of steam, and all the enginery which followed that conception. The steamboat sup- planted the sailing vessel, the railroad. succeeded the stage coach, while shafts and belting relieved a thou- sand tired arms. Old water wheels perished in rust and windmills rotted-to ruin. Men drew upon the forests and the mines for fuel with which to fire their steam boilers, until that day when some genius bethought him to spray crude oil into fireboxes. This was the age of steam power emanating from the earth’s stores of wood and coal and oil. That age is passing, and.with it the age of gas power ‘derived from the distillation of petroleym. What next—when the forests shall be cut down, the mines. shall be exhausted and the wells have run dry? Man’s ingenuity has risen to a high degree in recent years by broadened culture, liberal education, facilities for travel and observation, and the training of minds to reason and reflection. Man’s vision always has been keen, but once ran.far ahead of his capacity for fulfillment. Now the accu- mulated knowledge of the world is free in any library to his access and acquisition. He solves problems before they become urgent. He anticipates the future. He plans for generations yet unborn. r Elecricity is the new power which he is transform- ing and conducting to every door as artificial light and motive energy. The greatest achievements in the his- tory of the world are now making in the development or enormous quantities of this mysterious current. ~- Man has turned back again to the waterfalls for the sources of this energy. As he has’stored water for his agricultural or civic uses, he has linked power projects back of the spigot and the hydrant. And the men who have helped to do these miracles | look forth and behold yet other miracles to come. An eminent writer predicts that hereafter the his- torians writing of the beginning of the twentieth cen- tury will record: It has exhausted in the development of industry what nature took millions and millions of years to conserve and store, and used it in Rss time than one century— oil. it was the age of oil. To turn the wheels of industry in future, he prophe- sies that all of the natural water power in this country must be transformed into ‘electricity. The Chattahoochee river, if harnessed, will develop —so engineers estimate—more than 1,000,000 horse- power. This supply could be distributed over a wide area of Georgia or transmitted a vast distanée. Every watt developed by wafer_power in Georgia now is already absorbed in service. Whatever else of power may be extracted can be utilized even before it can be produced. ~. Georgia is foolish, so foolish to let this waste go on, year after year.—Atlanta_Georgian. \ GEORGIA’S WATER POWER With the nearing of the date when the Georgia leg- islature will meet again speculation is rife as to what will be done in regard to Georgia’s vast expanse of water poyer, at present unharnessed and useless, but. which could be developed just as other countries, especially Canada has developed its water power, a project which to cousumina te is the = of the Geor- gia Municipal zue. Two great problems are pressing upon the Georgia people for solution—the servant problem in the house- hold and the fuel problem everywhere. _ The day is not so far, and if we begin now — work as fast as labor and_.miaterial can be secured it will require from twelve to twenty years to\develop enough | \ of our water power to give us what we want for domes- tic purposes and keep up with the demand for power. There is no possible way to get the water power of the state developed within any reasonable time unless the state does it. The power companies will not do it, and cannot do it. Furthermore, they will never sell it to the .public cheap enough for common uses to make it available. In order to use it for heating and cook- ing, it must be plentiful, it must be cheap and it must be transmitted to all parts of the state. The servant and fuel problems are both pressing for solution and Georgia statesmen have no greater work to do.—Dublin (Ga.) Courier-Herald. Se TO DEVELOP GEORGIA’S GREAT WATER POWER Amendments to the constitution proposed by the Municipal League of Georgia to “enable the state to develop its unlimited water power facilities, thus put- ting a stop to wastes of many millions annually, and put electric light and power in reach of the whole peo- ple at reasonable rates, have been introduced in both branches of the legislature, and this great fight in the interest of the commonwealth is now under way. . The purpose of one of the bills is to authorize the legislature to create a “‘Hydro-Electric Power Commis- sion,” such as the one which has made such a won- jerful success in developing the water powers of the. province of Ontario, which state, with fewer inhabi- tants than Georgia, now enjoys developed water pow- ers which were supplying 750,000 horsepower to the people, when all Georgia had only 230,000 \horsepower ieveloped. The companion bill will enable the munici- palities to finance their public. utilities and deal with the private corporations on an equal footing. At present the private corporations engaged in handling public utilities have the power to condemn private property and borrow unlimited sums of money necessary to handle their business, but the state and the municipalities are helpless to act without action on the part of the legislature. Georgia solons cannot afford to be indifferent to the situation. Much is expected of this body here. One can best appreciate the real meaning of the legislation to the state when he recalls the fact that Georgia has in her streams 2,152,850 undeveloped horsepower. This is equivalent to 21,522,850 tons of coal. Think of it! e At the present price of coal, this undeveloped water power is worth $215,228,850 per annum, or $95,228,850 more than the value of $120,000,000 placed upon the annual output of oil in the great state of Texas. With the price. of coal mounting every day something must be done for the relief of our people, but if this were not true, it would be inexcusable to continue this an- nual waste.. The private corporations offer no hope. They appeal annually for an increase in rates, which are already inexcusably high, to continue to supply the pitiable amount of-power now developed by them and to add a little. The only way to meet the situation ct seems to be that proposed by the Municipal League. Columbus’ mayor, along with one hundred others, in- cluding city attorneys and other city officials of Geor- gia, at their recent meeting in Atlanta, by a vote of 92 to 2, determined to appeal to the legislature and state for this needed relief. And tzese people are rep- resenting the masses of Georgia, too. They ought to have every consideration on the part of the solons. Muscogee representatives in the legislature ought to lead the fight for the two amendments, which, perhaps, mean more for this section of the state than other parts of Georgia. : 2 e es > a Fa * ib Georgia’s unmilited water power new going to waste™ ought to be developed in the interest of Georgians.— Columbus (Ga.) Ledger. CHEAPER POWER MOVEMENT Next to the construction of dependable hard-surface roads throughout the entire state, the development of the hydro-electric power and navigation on our rivers is of next importance. It is a proposition that directly affects the personal welfare, comfort and convenience of every citizen of Georgia, and The Tribune-Herald heartily indorses the effort being made by the Municipal League of Georgia to bring this matter to the direet attention of the peo- ple, through & series of newspaper advertisements, now appearing in various papers throughout the state. The Tribune-Herald firmly holds to the conviction that the rivers and waterways of our-country belong to the people, and should be developed for their direct benefit. The most important feature of this develop- ment at the present time is flood control and hydro- electricity. Navigation may come later, and it should be fully developed at the proper time; but Aan n0 reason why regulating dams and power dams may not be built now, and electricity supplied to the people at comparatively cheap rates, irrespective of the time that locks may be built for navigation. Rome has taken a leading part in this movement,” and the policy advocated by the Rome rivers and water- ways commission, in having our rivers developed on a comprehensive basis, for the benefit of the people, has been widely and favorably commented on. It is a well-known economic fact that industry and . 7 - general development inevitably follow cheap power, and it is also a well established fact that Georgia pos- sesses the elements necessary to produce hydro-electric power in enormous quantities, and under particularly favorable circumstances. The Ontario power commission in Canada is now distributing power for less than half that we are pay- ing for it, and under conditions of four months of freéz- ing weather that doesn’t affect us. - The problem presents a great opportunity for con- ~ structive legislation, and Georgia being without com- mercial coal deposits, is bound to have her water pow- ers developed for energy, if she would~maintain her leadership for progress and industry.—Tribune-Herald, Rome, Ga. A Matter of Importance in Hydro-electric power is the com- you will soon see the fruits of it There ‘eas recently been intro- ing power for Georgia just as it is the present day power of other sec- tions. The aaterfalls of the coun- try are making certain sections rich, and this power of nature will make millions for Georgia when we take ful advantage of it. Moultrie is interested in hydro- electric power. We have a chance of getting it. The Observer thinks that we should avail vurselves of the opportunity. If we are to get manufacturing industries here we will get them through offering a cheap power. We cannot get them on the basis of present power cost in Moultrie. Coal is high today, and it is hard to get. We will_probably never coal as cheap again as we have seen it in the past quarter of a century, and we will probably never see the freight rate on coal as low as we have seen it. Electric power is our chance and our only chance at manufacturing enterprises. We advocate no par- ticular source, and it is of course up to city officials to make the best bargain they can in arranging to bring the electric power compa- nies in here, but we should have it. anything but a prohibitive rate. Our power at present is too high. The city may be doing its best for those who buy electric power from its plant, if so it means that we cannot produce power at home at Give us a cheap electric power and and scores of small industries and we hope in some more of the larger manufacturing enterprises. — Moul- trie (Ga.) Observer, Every individual who atops to think a small bit beyond his or her immediate interests and environ ment knows there are economic, s0- cial, racial and financial questions today confronting our ablest and most patriotic; heroic and unselfish statesmen, and that they are press- ing hard and persistently for solu- tion and that these questions have apparently gone beyond human agency, and that the best minds of our statesmen seem weak and im- potent in finding a solution for any of the militai. and important ques- tlons, which are continually mani- festing themselves, This is a fact, whether we wish to believe it or not, and one that blindness or evasion does not help or check. The thought that these questions so vital to the welfare of humanity are falling back upon themselves and multiplying confusion worse confounded and cre- ating a condition beyond human control ig far from a consoling thought to those who love the earth and its people, who wish civilization to be handed on to children and grandchildren. The people have looked too much, especially in recent years, for legis- lation and laws to settle their many trohbles, financial and moral and otherwise, and. have. expected too much of the government. Of course, this is a mistake, for pros- perity cannot be legislated into the ieee st ek saa. duced a bill in the legislature which is the beginning of the greatest, most important and constructive leg- islation ever commenced in Geor- gia. 1 have reference to the bills engineered by the Municipal League of Georgia, looking to the safeguard- ing of our water power. It is only a question of a few years before we will be without coal and wood, and possibly a* shorter time before we ° will be without farm labor. Hydro- electric power, when applied to the farm, will mean more for the gen- eral betterment and prosperity of the farmer than anything which has heretofore been proposed. It will supply the place of the needed labor- ers, reduce the expenses and removrs ; a lot of the drudgery and hard toif. It will, in fact, enhance the attract- iveness and desirability of life more — than anything heretofore. try should rally to the support of protecting our water power, for when the coal and wood are gone our ligtit and heat will have to come by the water power route or we are ~~ doomed. Uniess those in authority and those who can see the, importance of the question we are headed for the great- est catastrophe and tragedy ever known.—Cordele (Ga.) Dispatch.

WIECHOIT. Wonder how it feels to be a “mixed baby?” , Chances are there's only one littie person in all of Atlanta who can answer that question—even the fa- mous Mr, Briggs, authority on “how it feels,” remaining ignorant of the honest-to-goodness answer to the question. The wise little tot who could pos- sibly answer the interesting query, were it possible for her lips to fashion the thoughts of her tiny brain, is little Louise Madeline, whose last name is now a matter of contention. : All Atlanta knows of the case. On May 22, 1919, the stork visited Mrs. John C. Garner at Grady hos- pital. Twelve hours later a baby was born in the same hospital to Mrs. Daniel J. Pittman. The long and the short of the story is that Mrs. Garner claimed that attend- ants made a mistake only a few hours after the babies were born and mixed them, giving the Pitt- man baby to her and giving her baby to Mrs. Pittman. / Grim Tragedy Enters. The Pittmans denied the claim, and the Garners went to court about the matter. Mary Elizabeth, the other baby, suddenly sickened and, although attended by loving hands, died. Louise Madeline, at almost the same time, fell into an open fire and was badly burned. Thus it was that grim tragedy entered into the two little lives, ending it all for the little tot whose Short life had been spent with peo- Pla..who denied the existence of blod ties with the quaint little Stranger and bringing an agony of suffering to the other. Appalled at the double disaster, Garnerg allowed their court to lapse, and again til the stork should pay another visit to the Pittman home. This it did on July 21, and the Garners are this week re-openin a view to establishin to the rights of parenthood. the case with g their claim One Tot Who Knows.

UPSHAW SENDS WIRE ON GORDON INSPECTION Congressman Asks That Sal- vaging of Big Camp Be ‘ Postponed. “mixed Declaring that the totally unex- pected war department order for the junking of Camp Gordon has left Atlanta in an embarrassing po- sition, inasmuch as the city was preparing to state its case at the end of the congressional mandate on next June 80, and urging that the salvaging of the big camp be postponed until that date in order to give the city an opportunity to show its possibilities as a perma- nent training station, Congressman William D. Upshaw yesterday tele- Sraphed ;his position in the matter to Secretary of War Baker. In his wire, Mr. Upshaw makes it plain that the local chamber of commerce is strongly behind him in his action and that President Charles S. Sarrett, of the nationa) farmers’ union, is also indorsing the request: Hon Se wire oy estat follows: nh. Newton JD. Baker, Secret ry senington, D.. C. rdecentaates. n conference with General March - terday, Hon. Charies 5S. Barrett, epactiioat national farmers’ union, joined me in urg- ing that your order to abandon and salvage Camp Gordon immediately be suspended un- til Senator Hoke Smith and Atlanta Cham- ber of Commerce can be heard, showing At- lanta’s readiness to supply everything nec- essary to make camp permanent and cause congress to reverse its mandatory order to junk and’ sell this great property. Remembering that you told me about the time congress adjourned that nothing would be done until congress convened in Decem- ber, I have told Atlanta leaders riot to be anxious, but to get ready for proper repre- sentation them. I recognize, of course, your natural wish to reduce overhead expenses, which caused you to tssue order to remove soldicrs to Camp Jackson for the winter, but permit me to remind you that an abandoned camp will be much harder to save in com- mittee and on the floor of congress than a camp of surpassing equipment, alive and growing with wholesome activities in yo- egg page wd soldiers recruited chief- vy from s section of grea nd r - sive possibilities. a The fact that the war department through General Wood selected Camp Gordon for the permanent home of an army division, re- questing congress to make it permanent on account of its superior advantages of cli- mate, railroad cenveniences and proximity to the south’s greatest metropolis, shows. we believe, the tremendous mistake of hampering Atlanta in her crystallizing ef- forts to help the war department sive, as it rightly desires, the best equipped prop- erty in the entire south. With sewerage, water and sanitary sys- tems equal to Atlanta, and costing more than $1.000,000 each, with more than sixty miles of paved streetg and cofierete founda- tions for the main brfildings, erected with an eye to permanency and Iasting easily fifty years, the war department originally recognized the fact that the salvaging of such unequaled property, that would coat not less than $18,000,000, woulg be monn- mental governmental extravagance. In face of these facts, I urge that war department order he recalled and Camp Gordon be piven the lgnrit of the congressional mandate. June 30, next year, or certainly that a day %e set when the Georgia representatives of the senate, congress and the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce can give the war de- partment a new basis for asking congress to reverse its order. The real claims of Camp Gordon had no opportunity for a full hearing before con. | gress, being callAd up unexpectedly while we were catherine facts for the final ficht. The president of the national farmers’ union, who is greatly interested in the amplifica- tion of the wonderful yocational training now being given at Camp Gordon, declares his conviction that we can win overwhelm- ingly in congress when Camp Gordon's pos- sibilities; as an army educational center are actually known. Hold up your order and give nus the onportunity to win a great per- manent victory. WIT.LIAM PD. UPSHAW. Congressman Fifth District of Georgia.
