Expressing surprise that the ques- tion of the interpretation of princi- ple should have caused such diffi- culty, M. Tchiteherin proceeds to ar- gue that after the limitation of Po- land’s army of 50,000 was recognized by the British government as a just peace term, it was a concession on the part of Russia to admit the for- mation of civil militia, which, he as- serts, “is, in fact, a supplementary armed force,” and adds: “We there- fore find it astonishing that this should arouse the British govern- ment’s indignation. “Seeing that Great Britain de- clares peace through eastern Eu- rope to be its aim, we can point.tq the fact that the workers in Po- land for a long time have been the force steadfastly opposed to the Pol- ish governmen policy and have én reneated resolutions demanded peace If. nevertheless, the British government so forcibly op- poses strengthening_ this funda- mental pillar of peace, it clearly shows with what distrust it re- gards the workers. “r¢ the British government in- @eed thinks that tte workers by na- ture are animated by the doctrine of bolshevism. such a point of view will undoubtedly be welcomed by those who look forward to epreadinz bolshevism in Great Britain.” Proposed Civil Militia. -_ Alluding to the proposed civic mi- 7 \ al : litia, he says: . “although our interpretation 7 int in our peace terms is tear justified, we neverthe- less are willing to remove this, the ently point of divergency. in order ‘ee establish a full understanding between us and the above govern- 8. ; | gee to the terms of peace with Poland. we first of all declare we - . | bent ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY MORMING, AUGUST 27, 4920. “ _ a erms to Poles As Do f Enthusiastic Over Unself- ishness of the Governor’s War Cry in Senatorial Campaign, Hundreds Hand. i TRIUMPHANT MARCH .

The report was brought to the nominee by Myron T. Herrick, for- mer ambassador to France, who has just returned from a series of e»n- ferences with the pubiic men of va- rious rations of western Europe. In a public statement Mr. “ierrick said the western European. statesmen now were hoping for a return of _ the republican party to power and would welcome the peace settle- ment proposed by Senator Harding. World Court Plan. The former ambassador also inti- mated that the world court plan now being formulated abroad by Elihu Root and the representatives of European nations would have a larger place in the party's program -as finally placed before the coun- . try. The league of nations Issue also was discussed by the candidate to- day with former Senator George Sutherland, of Utah, a distinguished lawyer and a close student of in- ternational affairs. To both his ‘callers Senator Harding is under- -stod to have outlined the speech _be is to make here Saturday, de- . tailing his foreign policy and elabo- rating on his proposal for a new association of nations to preserve world concord. That the nation must ‘aloof, but must “play its proper part” in the world’s affairs was ‘emphasized by the nominee in a short talk in the day to a group «f Marion county school teachers ‘who called on him. He declared himself as anxious as anyone to see eace preserved, but he added that Ahe republic could accomplish its seal mission in the world only if ‘t semained unfettered. 7 In his speech, Senator Harding piso promised to use his influence for higher schcol standards and for better pay for teachers, Herrick on European Sentiment. Mr. Herrick spent most of the day At the Harding home and related in “Metail to the candidate the senti- gent he had found abroad as a re- sult of the senate's failure to yatify the peace treaty. He declared the position of the republican mht A now was fully understood in csurope while Fresident Wilson had een discredited because the nation iad not accepted his peace plan. ‘ “If President Wilson had sent a peace commission of properly Aquipped delegates,” said Mr. Her- _— “and they had made the vases of a sound peace, say in Jan- wary of 1919, Europe would have 4igreed readily. For the tragic fail- ire to accomplish this, the presi- dent alone was responsible, and all Europe now knows it. 1 talked not hold | | ‘others with with very many of” the . foremost statesmen of Europe and I know that this statement reflects thir attitude. “They persistently inquired wh¥ we did not submit to them the res- ervations adoptei by the senate. Without exception, they ins#sted that ‘f these had been submitted to them, they would instantly have acquiesced in them. tI explained time and again that the senate has no channel through which it car communicate over the head of the president with foreign governmen's. As to Military Alliance. - “As to the military alllance pro- vided under Article 19, of the league covenant, the Russo-Polish war has been complete proof of its utter inefficiency. England could not send troops because of domestic political conditions in England; we could not send them; France was not. able to furnish the necessary force. At the first test the mili- tary alliance proved a ‘complete failure and all the statesmen and publicists of Europe acknowledged the fact. “The people and the statesmen of western Europe now realize that their hope lies in the return of the republican party to power. They know that the republican party has always been the one with vision and understanding of international af- fairs. They understand that the republican party again in power it will be ready and able effectively to co-operate with them to stop the spread of bolshevism. They are sure that we will shirk no respon- sibility and their earnest desire is that an American government will- ing and able to execute the real mandate of the American | people shall presently assume authority. “While in Europe I talked among Slihu'’ Root. He will be home, I think, very shortly, and I anticipate that his return will be followed by announcement of very important accomplishments that will go far toward clarifving the entire international situation. ® Harding to the Teachers. In his talk to the teachers, Sena- tor Harding recalled his own early experiences as the master of a coun- try school and declared that teach- ers “should be compensated as lib- erally, if not more liberally, than any other profession.” 3 “I do not try to give-you the im- pression,” the nominee continued, “that the federal government can do that: but we do have a fed- eral department of education which has only a relative influence on educational work. Some day we may have a much larger and more important department of education, “We have wrought in our repub- lic one of the marvels of history and we have accomplished it De- cause of our independence of ac- tion and our unfailing devotion to the interests of America. We do not need to hold aloof from the world. Those of us who ovposed the league of nations covenant thal the president brought home, linked with the treaty of Versailles, are just as anxious for America to play its proper part in the world as all of you are to play your proper parts in your own drama of life. “No one can hold aloof and be free from influences that necessari- ly affect him, neither individuals nor states nor nations. There is no person who does not possess some share of influence. But I most sin- cerely hold that America can ren- der the greatest service to the world by maintaining first its entire free- dom of action, and then majntaining its capacity to heln the world with its splend:d example of popular rep- resentative government. “IT want Amefica to go on al- wavs, sure of its own conscience and ready to play the part of the greatest, the freest and most con- scientious country in the.world.” VOTES FOR WOMEN IN CONSTITUTION Continued From First Page. seal of the United States has béen duly affixed to the certificate ana with, the suffrage amendment is now rhe nineteenth amendment of the crn- stitution of the United States. “It was decided not to accom- pany the simple, ministerial action on my part with any ceremony or setting.

The celebration tonight at a down- town theater was under the auspices of the national league of women voters. Mrs. Catt told of the fight for the amendment, while President Wilson sent his greetings to the new voters, and Secretarv Colby ad- dressed the meeting.

TERMS TO POLES *s Continued from First Page. never considered our terms as an ultimatum and are still, as we have been at all times. willing to discuss them with the Polish government with whom alone we are treating for peace. Any undertakings’ we may giye there anent will, there- for. be given to Poland alone. “In view. nevertheless. of our ear- nest desire to obtain important re- sults for the world’s welfare and a peace arising from peace with Great Britain, we are wijling to inform the British government that the Russian government is resolved to make a concession on this point. It will not insist upon the clause re- ferring to the arming in Poland of a workers’ civic militia, thus se- curing full agreement with Great Britain as to all the terms of peace with Poland.” The soviet foreign minister con- tinues: “It is not the custom of the Russian government to mix psac- tical business transactions with theoretical politics and discussions of principles.” The British gvern- ment, however, has launched against the _ soviet regime the Strange accusation of being an oligarchy.” ~ “Majerity Toil For Few.” The nite then enters into a dis- quisition to the effect that all states whose form of government differs from the soviet are obviously true oligarchies because they are states in which the immense majority tdi: for a privileged few. while in soviet Russia the whole nation ga for the whole nation’s ben- efit. ‘M. Tchitcherin contends that the system of local wgrkers’ councils, in whose hands rests control of the whole soviet fabric, giver the masses much more power than the parliamentary” system, and con- cludes that, being a truly popular movement, the soviet is by nature peaceful and averse to cnyuests contrary to the governments of Oligarchies which desire peace only after having despo'‘léd their van- quished adversaries of their riches. “The peace of a workers’ and peasants’ government,” he _ Ssays, “being based on the rejection of ex- ploitation of others and upon true solidarity of the great working masses of all nations is the only genuine and really permanent peace. Animated by this spirit, the soviet government .does not insist upon its interpretation of the peace terms with Poland, which has given rise to the present divergence with Great Britain and Italy. It re- nounces its demand for the crea- tion of a workers’ militia in Poland and thus restores the full agree- ment with these two governnents which exist@éd before this diver- gence arose.” PEACE NEGOTIATOR RECALLED TO WARSAW. _, Warsaw, August 26.—(By the As- sociated Press.)-—M. Dombski, pres- ident Of the Polish-Minsk peace del- egation, has been called to Brest- Litovsk to confer with Polish gov- ernment representatives. This step was taken because of continued’ in- terruptions of communications be- tween Warsaw and Minsk. There is much speculation here eoneerning the outcome of the Minsk conference. some of the newspapers already hinting there will be no re- sults. chieflv because of the atti- tude the soviet representatives as- sumed from the beginning. The foreien: office announced to- day that the Polish. victorv had not changed the attitude of Polaffd o: the quevtion of peace and that the Polish delegates at Minsk were seeking all means to end the quar- rel with the soviets. The foreign office reiterated that Poland was not fighting the Russian nation, but onlv bolshevism. The question of insisting that the | Russo-Polish_ peace negotiations be shifted from Minek to some other city, owing to difficulties cf com- munication. has occupied various of- ficials for several davs, and the cab- inet considered it throughcut Wednesday. The cahinet’s recommendations have been forwarded to the national council of defense for final 4etermi- nation and an announcement is ex- pected within a few days. It is said there is no assurance that the Polish delegates at the peace conference have been inform- ed of the change in the situation re- sulting from the Polish offensive which hms virtually cleared Poland of soviet forces. POLES CONTINUE TO DRIVE RUSSIANS |ON VARIOUS FRONTS Warsaw, August 26.—(3y the As- sociated Press.)—The northern Po- lish army ‘is continuing to move up in the region between Sierpo and Soldau near the East Prussian bor- der and are marching on Chorzel- len, to the east of Miawa, to cut off the retreat of the remaining soviet forces. In the center the Poles have oc- cupied Ostrolenka, and. Staviski, as well as Kolno, and are marching on Ossowiec. In the, south the Poles have retaken Hrubieszow and the sixtieth bolshtvik divison around embers is retreating to the south- west. Soviet troops are reported to be concentrating in great numbers along the Beresina river, where the recent offensive against Warsaw was begun, and military observers here are.speculating as to the pos- sibility they may launch an tack against the central Polish front. It is. believed possible the bolsheviki may make a stand in the event the Poles continue to their pursuit of the retreating soviet ar- mies eastward from the Bug river, on Ss south, and Grodno on the north. “Poles in Pursuit.

Russians Cut Way Through. Remnants of the fourth bolshevik army, which were cut off by the Polish advance in the region of Kol- no, have succeeded in cutting their way through to the eastward after | (+a battle lasting ten hours, aceord- ing to an official statement issued here. The soviet troops carried out a regrouping maneuver and- suc- ceeded in making their way out of the trap which had Closed upon them, but at last accounts were sur- rounded by more numerous forces of the fourth Polish army. The fifth Polish army continues —~ its work of rounding up detach- ments of bolsheviki in the region west of the railroad running from Modlin to Miawa. On the central ‘front the Poles have carried out a flanking move- ment to the north and have occu- pied My Knyszyn, 15 miles north- west of Bialystok, and Stawiski, 12 miles northeast of Lomza. Occuph- tion of these towns, with the capture of Kolno, completes the work of forging a ring around the fifteenth bolshevik army. Other soviet forces have reass@embled at various places and are making repeated attacks in their attacks to break the Polish cordon. Nine attacks were made in the region of Kolno yesterday, but all are said to have been repulsed with enormous losses. Among the captivés is the commander of a bol- shevik division. In the maneuver which resulted in the occupation of Lomza, the Poles took more than 2,000 prison- ers and nine cannon. There was street fighting in Bialystok for more than 24 hours before the bolshevik were finally ousted from the place. Reports received at the war de- partment state the fifty-fifth bol- shevik division has been called from Grodno to attempt to drive the Poles out of Bialystok. In the neigh- borhood of that city more than 7.- 000 prisoners: and 18 guns ‘were taken by the Poles. Polish successes in the neighbor- hood of Lembere are also reported. HEAVY FIGHTING IN THE CRIMEA. London, August 26.—Fierce fight- ing in the Oriekhov district of the Crimea, continually’ increasing in violence, is reported in the Russian soviet official statement of Weéeéd- oennys received here today by wire- ess.

The introductory address was made by former Assistant United States District .Atterney Earl Don- aldson in a powerful ten-minute speech, in which he referred to the wobbling attitude of the serior senator, the undemocratic alliance of May 18 and the vun-Ameri-c?nism ism of Thomas E. Watson, while he held up as a steadfast and unyield- ing exponent of true democracy the brilliant young governor qf Geor- gia who stands four-squarée behind the party of the fathers and as an unflinching champion of the great cause of Christian civilization. Swept Audience. The governor made. another of his masterfu) speeches that swept the audience into a riot of enthu- siasm. At the conclusion, after a tribute to the constitutions of ‘our nation and state and an im- passioned plea for fidelitv to the democratic faith that saved the south in the reconstruction after the civil war, as it is the hope of the nation in the reconstruction pe- riod of this day and time, the audi- ence impulsively pushed to the front and for 30 minutes the governor was kept busy shaking the-hands of the people, hundreds of them nledg nv their votes on September 8. “Decatur county is already for Dorsey and the tide has not yet reached its flow,” is the way one of his supporters expressed it, as the governor pushed his way through the throng, the center of an escort committee that had arrived to accompany him to Quitman. On account of a tremen- dous downpour of rain the party toarded the 12:40 train for Quitman instead of going by automobiles as had been planned, and at Thomas: ville a throng of two or three hun- rt Thomas county voters met tht train. . Though raining in torrents at the time, Judge Hopkins boarded the coach and brought the governor to the platform. He shook hands with as many-.of them as he could during the five minutes the train stopped and as he hoarded it again some one shouted: “Three cheers for the next United States senator,” while the rang with the applause.

Governor Dor- sey repaid them for their sacri- fice in leaving their fields with what is considered to be the greatest po- litical speech ever made in Brooks county. The governor held the crowd from beginning to end and found it impossible at times to pro- ceed on account of the applause. He devoted his address principally to Hoke Smith and Tom Watson and maceeesy assailed their official rec- orda. Mr. Dorsey was introduced by Mayor Sam T. Harrell as the red- blooded American and loyal Geer- gain against whose courage and patriotism and loyalty and service there was not even the taint of criticism, and declared that, al- though Quitman and Brooks county ad heard Hardwick and Smith and rifolder. the best had been saved for the last.

Or, if secrecy ' were guaranteed in the comnitni- ties, were Mr. Hays and Mr. “&’p- ham to do the same thing in sub- mittine their returns on box cffice receipts? Certainly there is some reason. What is it? The public is entitled to know.

Furthermore there shoulld be some explanation of this being made purely a busi- ness affair, participated in by busi- ness men and business men only.

It means that the-quota is to be as- sessed against those who are to benefit, and that the captains of in- dustry who -have answered Mr Hays’ roll call are submitting to taxation with the understanding that they will have representa- tion.” The quota plan, Governor Cox charged, “was approved by Chair- man Hays and Treasurer Upham, and also,” he added, “it received endorsement from a higher source.” Quoting from a “message” writ- ten by Senator Harding, the Renub- lican nominee, in the official bul- (Advertisement.)

At the left is shown the large crowd that collected at the scene of the wreck, about seven miles north of the falls, after the engine and baggage car had rolled partly down the steep embankment upon Which the track ran at the point when the locomotive was derailed. In the last coach were a number of young Atlanta girls who had been attending a mountain camp, in addition to a house party and other Atlantans, The picture at the right shows the overturned engine with its tender and a section of the baggage car as they rested on the Steep embankment, the weight of ‘the back car alone preventing the entire train from crashing down the fill. The railroad is popularly known as Atlanta’s “vacation line;” the train crew were known to hundreds here, and interest was added by reason of the presence of an unusually large number of Atlanta passengers on the train at the time of the wreck, which occurred at 7:40 o’clock Monday morning. —_— letin of August 5, Governor Cox said that Senator Harding express- ed his gratitude for “the enathu- siasm shown” in raising the cdla- paign. fund. Alleges Harding Knows Details. “That Mr. Harding is acquaintei even with the details “of the enter- prise is evidenced by a subsequent passage,” said Governor Cox, “which is as follows: “*Through the fine work of your organization, we are nearing that form of political patriotism which expresses itself in support from every county, every: state. There- fore, I want all members of your organization to feel that their ef- forts are essential to our success in planning for national enlightén- ment and deeply appreciated by me.’.”’ Governor Cox said he depended “wholly for the purpose of making proof of his charges” upon official documents which came from repub- lican headquarters. He did not plan to send his data to the senete cam- paign investigating commit.ee, stat- ing pfivately ‘that the conimittee could get its taformation trom his address tonignt. Beside his statement on republie- an finances, which he prepared with great care today on thé train en route from Evansville, Ind., and which he read to his audiente to- night, the democratic . candidate also .discussed ‘tie league o/ na- tions and industria: pre bie ms, ing settlement of strikes without the bayonet. “The ‘normalcy candidate as visioned ters,” said Gover*cr connection, referring their his. mas- im this Senator Veiced by Cox tc by urg- | riarding, “is bayunets ar the factory | door, unrestrained «oliteering the wates of the farm-——the of government on snon'ders than their own, a: the tederal re- Serve system an annex te Ness.

The Newberry charges, Guvernor Cox noted,, alsa were denied. One would have thaught,” said the speaker, “that this experience would have had its restraining influence on sgubsequent events, but the resolve of certain interests to take over the affairs of our government amounts apparen:!y to a mania. Unatfected by the Newberry episode money was spent atter it hail been collected from busi- ness interests in the preconvention campaign in such sums that tne whole country was shocked by the scandal. Millions of dollars admit- tedly were expended in behalf of its candidates. "The Newberry affair and the preliminaries to the national con- vention are not admitteg public facts. They are recounted as first symptoms of an iniquitous conta- gion that continues. Judging the future by the past, the people them- selves must bring it to an end. Nothing apparently, except the stiff shock of expreSsed public condemna- tion at the polls will be effective. The Newberry lesson went unheeded by the interests behind presidentia] candidates in the spring and early summer of 1920, and the admonition which the multiplied circumstances of the very recent past would ordi- narily carry to the normal mind i8 insufficient to stay the hand: of greed, of conspiracy and corruption, which it is my duty to expose.” G. 0. P. Basiness Men Accused, Governor Cox recited how the republican ways and means commit- tee was orgunized last December and its work, he said, was “vigor- ously pushed from the very first.” lts local chairmén, he said, were “business men, in most instances very wealthy men.” In this connec- tion he quoted from a letter John Kirby. Jr., chairman of the Dayton, Ohio, committee, of February 7, last stating: “This is > purely business mén's movement.” “It took on the commercial enthusiasm,” Cox continued. “The running through ali the is emphasized by the reelrrent terms of salesmanship. The plan was not only to organize every state, but every county in the United States. Definite quotas were estab- lished in precisely the same manner as the Liberty Loan campaigns were conducted: population and bank de- posits apparently being the base of calculations. In addition to the lo- cal chairmen, state managers were engaged. Traveling representat.ves operated between them and commu- nity organizations. Salaries running as high as five hundred dollars a week and expenses have been paid in ordér to create ang maintain en- thusiasm and morale. An official document was published, intended as it will later be shown, for the eyes exclusively of the men and corporations who are a part of the movement,” Governor Governor philosophy literature Cox quoted at length from many issues of the Upham “pulletin.” The first iSsue of July 7, the candidate said, contained this sentence: “Nobody is going to Rave anything to do with this bulletin who has not had actual experience in digging up money in the field.” ; A statement of Mr. Upham said that Senator Harding's election was the “job” and involved “the sim- plest principles of salesmanship, knowledge in our goods, faith in our goods, tact and energy in pre- Senting our goods,” Governor Cox declared. ‘ Describing the fund managers as “money diggers,” Governor Cox said Mr. Upham’'s assistants were David H.

Fitzeerald. office manacer. Quotas Soon Announced. Governor Cox read a bulletin statement by Mr. Blair that the efforts fer funds for 41 states would be directed from main headauar- ters. - . “For the present,” said My. Blair's impetus of a ‘ statement, “our efforts will be di- rected primarily 10 producing the quotas of the larger gities. This does not mean that present state and county organizations will be dis- turbed or retarded in their activ- Yties.”’ “The quotas which Mr. Blair had in mind was very soon announced,” said Governor Cox. “The meeting wus held in Chicago. * Mr. Hays ad- dressed it and spoke his blessings. Typewritten sheets were distributed to those assembled. I produce here- with one of those sheets which car- riés quotas as indicated.’’ At this point Governor Cox pre- sented the list of 51 large cities and said the allotments .would be 31 cents per capita for each man, wom- an and child of their 23,500,000 pop- ulation. “The sum of $8,145,000 is to come, not from 27 states, but from the largest cities in 27 states,” said the governor. “New York state is rep- resented by only six places, New York city, Buffalo, Rochester and Albany, and yet Franklin D. Roose- velt announces that the county of Duchess, a suburban and rural com- munity, was assessed $32,000. But let uS see whether the quotas placed upon the Jarger cities were exceeded. Again we come for prvof io the official bulletin, which, un- der date of August 10, says: Bos- ton, Mass., had a 90 percent at- tendance at an organization ~cet- ing on August 4. This is an ex- cellent record for a hot day. Real interest was aroused. Senator Weeks inspired them with an un-! derstanding of the _ situation and /| they agreed to produce. “That they did produce is proved by the bulletin of August 10, _1920, when telegrams received that day were published. Among others we See the following: Metropolitan Boston wills to contribute more than 250 per cent of its original quota, which would turn the Boston fund from $300,000 to $740,000. “The End Is Not Yet.” Ohio, quota “The Columbus, is August lu, a telegram trom Cvluia- bus is inserted, cariying these re- assuring: :woras: “hen, too, the end is not yet, tor it is prowable tne sum of 9150,v00 for the state and. national Areasury will stand to thé cre t of, CoNimobus ;before Ahe@ first day of September.’ ‘Then a li et color Was wiven to the story. Proud olf achievements, Henry: E..Owen, the divisional director who sent the teiegrain, gVidenced his pride in how things: were going by submitting, | details as to just how it was ac- compligthed. Mr. Owen said: ‘“lnis is how it Was done: lwo busy ipen gave two hours a day for teu conseculive Uays in interViewing and sovliciting, and they turned tne trick., ‘that this Was intehded. as a hint ‘to the ‘money diggers is shown by the parugrauph in wir.

The balance of the Tennéssee cities are being care- fully canvassed.’ “Not a city in Arkansas is listed: in the eight million dollar class. Only one city in Louislana—New Or- leans. Only one city in Georgia— Atianta. Not a Single city in North Carolina, and: yet David Blair wired the bulletin as follows: ‘Why not urge the. rest of the United States to emulate the examnle of Arkansas, Louisiana, Georgia and North Carolina, which are all over the top. North Carolina went over on the 27th of July and the end is not vet.’ Snapping Michigan Dollars. “In the state of Michigan only One city, Detroit, is put in the éight million dollar class and yet the bul- letin under date of August 10 says that: ‘lint, Michigan., business men decided to make their campaign short and snappy and finish by Au- gust 15. Grand Rapids, Mich., com- mittee of large business men work- ing enthusiastically to bring cam- paizgn to speedy conclusion.’ The Bulletin of August 16 says: ‘Cam- paign in Pontiac, Saginaw, Alma, Bay City. Ann Arbor, Jackson. Bat- tle Creek, Grand -Rapids and Grand ‘Haven started during past week. Forty counties in Michigan now com- paieninge.’ “In Wisconsin only Milwaukee is named and: yet the bulletin of August 10 says: ‘Kenosha, Wis., has raised its full quota. Other Wisconsin connties orvani7'n- ~ow. The bulletin of August 16, says: Wisconsin has every day since the adjournment of conventi n recorded itself on the cash register at head- quarters with substantial sums.

This dispatch is signed by Albert Weigel, of Yuma, Ariz. and dated August 7. Pay Dirt in Florida. “a “The ‘money diggers’. struck pay dirt ih Florida. C. Buhen, of Fau Gailie. under date of Avenst 7, wired the bulletin as’ follows: ‘Many counties of Flori¢4 organiz- ing. Dade and Palm Beach, coun- ties very strongly lined up. Key West shows much ‘interest.’ “VAlso Fort Pierce.’ “Speaking of Florida, the bulleti carries this paragraph under date o August 10: ‘Florida republicans say they wish to help pay the freight dollar for return of good republican days.’ “Main is not found in the king row, and yet, under date of August 16, the bulletin places her in the list with these words: ‘With this contribution, Maine, the Pine Tree State, made a record of which she ean be truly proud. In ¢he past, practically no subscriptions to the the nationa] committee fund were ever reccived from this state. Start- ing July 18, the first organization of the state wayS and Means com- mitttee was perfected, and on Au- sust 15, the quota hat ~ on over- subscribed, $5,000.’ “Coming to Ohio, we find, accord- ing to the bulletin of August 16, that ‘Cincinnati business men hve underwritten a quota to be deliv- ered by September 1.’ By that, we are to understand that a group of business men produced the money and will do their collecting later. The point is, however, that the cash has one to the treasury. Ports- mouth is not in the Ohio. list, yet the bulletin of August 16 says ‘Portsmouth raised its quota at one meeting.’ “New Hampshire is not named. and yet the bulletin of August 16 says: ‘New Hampshire money 1:3 being sent eVery day to the eastern treasury. Chairman Hohe is to complete entire state’s .quota by. this week.’ “Only one city in Colorado, Den- ver, is mentioned, yet. the bulletin of August 16 says: ‘Colorado—sS. C. Hamlin, state chairman, reports northern counties in Colorado have practically raised thier ~uotas. He guarantees state’s quota by Sep- tember 1.’” “Even South Dakota reports to the bulletin of date August 10 that ‘Sioux Falls had an_ enthusiastic meeting August 4, and promises its quota by August 15.’ Jt is not in the eight million list. Thé.builetin of August 16 says ‘Mitchell, South D2kota, has completed quota.’ “That remote places in Illinois are in the nay territory is evidenced by a line in the bulletin of Ausust 16, which runs into these words: ‘Tlli- nois—Will and Boone counties have practic-lly completed quotas.’ “Boys, Get the Money.” “ “fT am sire the ,.country will be interested,” the governor continueéu, “In some of the methods that were adopted that kept things going. In the bulletin of August 16, David H. Blair, Mr. Upham’s first assistant un- der his own. signature, contributed an article entitled ‘Step on it.’ These are his slogans: ‘Harding and Cool- “edge have the confidence of the peo- ple, but, boys, get the money.’ ‘The platform is sound enough to hold the weight of the nation, but, boys, get the money. It takes time to or- ganize, but, we'haven’t any more time left. Boys, get the money. The weather is hot: the men are on va- cations, meetings are ‘hard to get, but, boys, get the money. There are hills to elimb. but if you want to make a hill at the same speed you -have been running where the road was level. you have got to give it Give her the gas: step on movine from one end of the line to the other,” said Governor Cox. This is revealed in a paragraph which dgcls with the Chicazo cam- paign which says ‘Chicago's cam- naien is'to be conducted bv four full time divisions, and a fifth re- serve division which will swing. into action for the last three davp on the public movement, functioning an a mop-up battalion.’ Evidently the ‘mop-un’ battalion saved the dav. a> Mr. Upham admits that Seven hun- dred thousand dollars have already been received in Chicaro.” Governor Cox closed his statement on contributions thus: ‘When mv charve of a ererruntion fund was first made, Will H, Haves, chairman of the rennhlican national committes mrda an distinet threat in these words: “If at the instance of our artvorcorice this camnaien its finallv resolved into a question of nersonal cheracters we kFraxrw of no reason aside from naturo* distaste whw we should not meet that issue as readily as any other.’ se’ “T renew the charges and accept the ebholienes” Grent Crowd Heard Cox, A capacity audience at Syria- Mosque, said to have 3,800 seats, cheered and cheered Governor Cox's address. The applause was he'ght- ened by tin horns, hung at each seat, which screeched their approvai of the governor's statement. Governor Cox mixedinto his pre- pared address humorus and sarcae- tic references to the reports of :e- nublican subscriptions, and he laughed with the crowd at “his thrusts. Commenting on the reported “un- derwriting” of contribution quo as, Governor Cox suggested that oa small group of men would guaran- tee payment in the event of deficits in popular subscriptions. “They'll need the money,” G»v- ernor Cox interjected. Besides declaring, asehe concluded his statement on republican contri- butions, that he renewed his charges and accepted Mr. Hays’ challenge. Governor Cox said: “T prove the charges.” The governor asked whether any one in the audience was not con- vinced. A man in the gallery stcod up and houted back: “Yes.” Cries of “Throw him out” stilled by Governor Cox, who asked the man to stand up, and insisted that he be given a hearing. asked the governor. “Because you have not nan:ed a that has contributed one penny,” the man replied. Amid considerable confusiol, Gov- ernor Cox replied that the repub- lican leaders could produce the names of contributors. “And if not, I will continue to ask questions until November 2,” the governor added. i “The facts will come out. A rising ovation was given the governor as he entered discussien of republican finances and turned to industrial questions. The governor reiterated his 3tate- ment that banking interests were plannninhg tochange the federal re- serveact, and declared that many Ohio banks had been “assessed” $1,000 each for the republican fund, according to committee reports. Crowds rushed the stage to shake hands with the governor after his address. . Governor Cox left here at 11:10 p. m. for New Haven, Conn., where { “The plan was to keep the spirit. { | he will morrow. CHARGES FALSE, DECLARES HAYS.

Mr. Hays said that his statement of the case earlier in the day, refer- ring to the “utter falsity” of Gover- nor Cox’s charges, was all the re- Div needed at present.

The women of Georgia were asked to furnish rooms from each county in the state so that the women of the state might continue their in- terest in the institution, the cause of which they have so long spon- sored. Many rooms have been fur- information on the subject. at State University nished and presented as memorials, but there are still fifty ,.unfurnish- ed rooms.

Of a lengthy discussion of “The Difficulties of Prohibition,” Editor George Balley says: “Why use a lot of space on such a subject when the whole thing might be boiled down ina few words, viz., ‘It’s hell when it is $30 &@ quart and hard to get at that.’” It’s oe Ex-Senator Perry Says Voters Should Consolidate Editor Constitution: Ag I see. it, the political situation in our state is serious. We have three candi- dates for governor, two good men of the people, either of whom will make a good governor, and one man who has been for several years against the democratic party and the people of Georgia. Now, un- der our county unit rule, a candi- date may carry a county by getting a little over one-third of the votes. Suppose a county has 1,500 votes. Hardwick gets 550, Walker 500 and Holder 450. Hardwick then gets the unit votes of that county, with nearly two-thirds of the voters of the county against him. The race for United Stateg sena- tor is in the same condition, with three candidates, Smith, Dorsey and Watson. Suppose a county has 2,- 000 voters; Watson gets 750, Dor- sey 700 and Smith 650. Watson is then elected in that county, with a little over one-third of the votes. Now, if none of these men come out of the race, it is up to the vot- ers of Georgia to make the man who ig elected get a mafority of votes cast in every county. We can do it if we leave off prej- udice, personal likes’ and dislikes and consider only the best interests of the people of Georgia, My plan is to drop the third man in’every coun- ty and vote for two; then one will get a majority. In the illustration above used, instead of Watson car- rying the county by a plurality of 50 votes, Smith would get ,it by a majority of several hundred. In the illustration of the governor’s race, instead of Hardwick carrying the county by a — of 50 votes, Walker would carry it by a ma- jority of several hundred. I use these figures merely for illustra- tlon. My suggestion is in all cases drop the low man. If Holder is stronger in a county, drop Walker; if Walker is stronger, drop Holder. In the senator’s race, if Dorsey will get more votes than Smith, drop Smith; if Smith is stronger, Drop Dorsey. I know it will be lard for some of Governor: Dorsey's friends to vote for Hoke Smith, and I know that it will be hard for some of Mr. Smith’s friends to vote for Dorsey. I appeal to you all to think only for the best interests of the good people of Georgia and leave off personal admiration and personal dislikes. Vote for two men, and when the race is over, there will be no run- over. There are men in every coun- ty who can tell fairly well who the third man will be. The third man can lose nothing by being dropped, neither will the voter who preferred to vote for him, but may gain by preventing Watson and Hardwick carrying his county against the wishes of nearly two-thirds of the voters. Fellow Georgians, fully consider this election and do what is best for all the ‘people. GRANT D. PERRY. Madison, Ga.

Volubly did Senator Smith declaim that twenty-four other states ex- Jjempted charities from such taxes, as though Governor Dorsey had taken a solemn oath to uphold the laws of twenty-four other states. Loudly did he bewail the loss to the children that will result from the vetoing of the law. Heroically did he declare that “I would never |have vetoed that law had I been governor.” Listen, folks, do you sur”ose that any one in Georgia loves little chil- \dren any better than Governor Dor- sey? Vo you suppose any one would be more loath to do a thing to their hurt than he? Do you suppose that any but a courageous man, and fearless public official, would have wilfully incurred the criticism he knew would follow the vetoing gf a popular legislative measure? Senator Smith would seem to infer that Governor Dorsey did it for meanness, because, mayhap, he doesn’t like the Masons, or because he doesn’t like little children. What tommyrot. Senator Smith said‘one true thing in that discourse: “I wouldn’t have done it.” We believe you sincerely, Sena- tor. Your record bears you out. You would do nothing ou feared would incur criticism. You fought the league of nations while you, thought the people of Georgia were all Wilson haters, nad didn’t want protection from future wars. When you found how you had misjudged them you decided that, after all, you hadn't really written the Lodge res- ervations and only wanted two lit- tle, teeny weeny reservations, SMITH SHOULD QUIT NOW. (From The Thomaston Times.) for United States senator. He should do this for the good of the party. He should not embarrass his friends by asking them to vote for him. He has been given all the honor thet the people of Georr'» could confer upon him and he has been false to the highest political trust that could be placed in him. He failed the party in its hour of need —during the war he opposed the party’s war measures and after the war he joined the enemies of the party in defeating measures for a proper peace. kKvery state in the union has repudated the few trai- ‘torous senators in congress and Georgia should and will do her fug duty .in the matter, we believé. Senator Smith~can no longer con- sistently champion the cause of de- mocracy since he has proved false to it and in justice to his friends and the party he should not ask anything further of it. SMITH ALREADY REPUDIATED. (From The Columbus Ledger.) In his speech at the Opera House Monday evening Senator Smith in- sisted that he was the man to beat Watson and “save” the state. Well and good, but what the peo- ple of Columbus and other sections of the state would like to know, is, why didn't the “brainy” senator beat Watson in the presidential primary in April? Isn’t itea fact that the populist leader led the Georgia Senator in that race. by thousands of votes? And isn’t it true that Senator Smith’s anti-administration record was re- pudiated by Georgians at that time. The idea of this. man “saving’’ democracy and beating Watson in the coming primary when the same “Sage of McDuffie” skinned him to the bone only a few short months ago! Isn’t it absurd? det UNITED ON WALKER. (From Thomasville Times-Enter- prisé.) It doesn’t make much difference down here in this part of the state. whether Holder rétires or doeg not. The folks have united for the strongest man to beat Hardwick and will stay united. Elsewhere in this paper will be found notice of cancellation of Mr. Holder’s engagement to address the peoDple of Thomasville and Thomas county. The Times-Enterprise holds Mr. Holder in the highest esteem and would like to see him governor as much as almost @ny man in -the state. However, we are very much of the opinion that if Mr. Hard- wick is to be defeated in this, the county of his nativity, everybody ae best turn out and vote for Wal- er. DORSEY TO SWEEP STATE. (From the Lawrenceville News- Herald.) That Dorsey will sweep the state on the 8th of Séptember, and win over both Smith and Watson is not doubted by those in a position to know the situation. That neither the Smith or Watson followers have any faith in their candidates winning out, is evidenc- ed by the fact that while all the candidates have headquarters in the Kimball house, humerous bets, from $1,000 down are posted that Dorsev will win, no takers can be found. Men who bet on political races do not blindly risk their money, but have fully posted themselves on the situation. WALKER THE STRONGER. (From The Macon Telegraph.) The Telegraph does not believe Georgia wants to be in the: position of sending a half-baked republican to the United States senate to rep- resent a, sound democratic state, and, moreover, to do it through the avenue of the gubernatorial nomi- nation on a democratic ticket being turned into a convention trick man- ufactory. There is a principle in- volved in the situation, one which rises far above any question of “ex- pediency,’.and that principle is hon- est protection of the sanctity of the ballot in the hands of the democ- racy of Georgia. The Teleffraph, therefore, has no apologies to make for its sugges- tion that there should be an imme- diate concentration upon Mr. Wal- ker as the stronger man in the gubernatorial race, and again it re- iterates, it would much have pre- ferred finding Mr. Holder that man, but it has as much faith in Mr. Holder’s patriotic impulses for his party and his state as it has in his ability to well fill the ev>ernato- rial chair had the sounding of the state shown him with the strength to insure his nomination. . TWO INCIDENTS. (From The Savannah Press.) It is a long time ago that Thomas E. Watson, then a member of con- gress. made his famous speech in which he compared the condition of the United States to that of Sodom and Gomorrah. Among other things he charged that a member of con- gress had addressed the house in so maudlin a condition and became so confused that he turned his bleary eyes toward the chair and inquired, “Mr. Speaker, where was at?” The facts relating to this _inci- dent were brought out by a con- gressional investigation. It appear- ed that Mr. Cobb, a member fro Alabama, was making a speech. He was interrupted by questions from various.members until he momen- tarily lost the thread of his dis- course, and when about to resume it. asked: “Mr. Speaker, where was I in my argument?” Mr. Cobb was penter of the charge of intoxica- tion. This is very ancient history and would not be worth unburv'~~ but for its strange analogy in the dis- turbing incident that occurred at Buford, Ga., last week, the facts of which are doubtless familiar to ev- ery body. There are marked differences, to 1 : . Bids se , with greater | Hoke Smith should quit the race ly On the first occasion Mr. be sure. Watson was the accuser.. On the second he is the accused. There was never any dispute about the fact that Mr. Cobb was decently and properly clothed and it seems to be equally clear that Mr. Watson was not. THE WATSON “OUTRAGE.” (From Americus Times-Recorder.) The expected has happened. The arrest of Thomas E. Watson at a Buford: hotel last week on a charge of public indecency, in which he admitted drinking and violent pro- fanity in the presence of the pro- prietress, is now being used as po- litical capital in his behalf. Speak- ing at Watkinsville Saturday short- ly before his joint appearance with his political colleague, Watson, at Crawfordville, eXx-Senator Thomas W. Hardwick, according to neWs dispatches, “referred to Mr. Wat- son's recent arrest at Buford as ‘an outrage’ and intimated that it was a ‘frame-up’ by Watson's enemies. Outrage, indeed. Wasn't it Wat- son who committed the outrage? His arrest was a mistake, hardly an outrage. ° But had the incident been connected even remotely with poli- tics the arrest -probably would not have taken place. It was a case of a man coming into a town, mak- ing himself a _ public blackguard and nuisance, and so enraging the people that they did not consider his age or any circumstances. HARDWICK VS. WILSON. Sandersville, Ga., August 26.— (Special.) — The Sandersville Progress, which has supported Thomas W. Hardwick in every one of his campaigns un- til two years ago, pubiished tne following editorial in its isgue of today, and which has caused con- siderable comment locally: “Mr. Hardwick’s priacipal charge against wif, Wiiso0n is his aUulucrace luauner, W ell, the Iault, if 1C ve a tauit, is admitted. but can one recall the name of a Single man in nistory, of Mr. Wilsons cCuliber and high, position, who was not just a little pit antolerant of the views ol smail men, especially when pressed with circumstances of unusual as- surance and persistence? Besides this very natural trait of a really big man, few of his critics Stem to rewlize another reason in the fact that the president alone is respon- sible to the people for most of his important acts, and should be enti- tled to pre-eminence in national councils. “We have stated in substance that pride of opinion was an essential quality of all great minds, but even mediocrity some times suffers from the same affliction, for be it re- membered that Mr. Hardwick is some little dictator himself—in fact Wilson in miniature, a star of lesser magnitude, and a@ ray less serene, but more fiery in his particular sphere. In other words a cheap im- itation, and if elected to the office of zovernor, if his oft repeated boast amounts to anything at all, we will see an exhibition of executive en- croachment calculated to make @ mediaeval despot look like a piker. He would,be no “rubber stamp” governor, but Goodyear must envy his lungs. “It is well known to Mr. Hard- wick’s friends and advisers that he is another Attticus who will bear no Caesar near the throne, and when you reduce it ¢o0 its last analysis, that is really the cause of mill the trouble between Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hardwick. He rent the air for Mr, Wilson before his first election to the presidency, but for that doubtful service he presumed too much and aspired too high, so like Beelzebub, he was cast off into utter darkness, where he has been gnashing his teeth ever since. He says he would be willing to “crawl on his belly from the mountains to the sea, if the voters of Georgia would only for- give him for asking them to vote for Wilson.” What this statement lacks in elegance, it makes up in dramatic force, well calculate to impress his class of followers and please the other twin. But at last accounts he had crawled only as far as Thomson. It is not known wheth- er his belly gave out at that point of his reptilian progress, or ha saw a mirage of the briny deep, and thought he had reached his orl. “He wants vindication; but would it be a real vindication wera he to be elected by the disgruntled erowd that composes his present follow- ing? He can never reinstate him- self with the old friends, tried and true, who loved him for what they thought he was, and not for what he has proven himself to be. These are estranged forever. and by their votes he shall know them.” WHAT HUGH DORSEY HAS DONE. (From The Thomasville Times- Enterprise.) Some fellow, an advocate of Tom Watson for the senate, got into a discussion in which he took occa- sion to say that Dorsey hadn’t done anything but be governor since he went into office. The point was immediately taken up and dilated upon as the most pleasing state- ment that could have been made in his favor. He has merely been gov- ernor, and he has done that well, dotte it so well that there is hardly a criticism of any kind on his offi- cia] record from any quarter, not even from Tom Watson. UP TO SMITH. (From The Valdosta Timés.) The reply which Governor Dorsey has made in his quiet, but pungent way, to the statement of the Hoke Smith organ that the senior sena- tor had challenged the governor to a joint debate, may cause the sena- tor to issue the challenge, though he has not done so up to thistime. Governor Dorsey would pobably welcome an opportunity to make the flopping, side-stepping states- man face his record. The senato usually clouds it over with camou- flage when he goes out to meet the people by himself. Governor Dorsey has poven him- self able to take care of himself on the stump. He has invited hon- est criticism of his own record at every point of his career. He said n his speech at Fayetteville that e had been keeping tab on Hoke for a good long time, and that he knew his record from beginning to end. He had kept up with Hoke’s “voting against his speeches and speaking against his votes.” The governor has kept up with the statements he made in his cam- paign for president when he prom- ised his friends to quit politics if he did not “carry Georg’yah.” DORSEY THE CHOICE, (From The Dalton Citizen.) A calm and dispassionate survey of the situation in this section with refeence to the senatorial race indi- cates that Governor Dorsey is the > a of the majority of the peo- ple. Sentiment is not any different now to what it was during the stir- ring days of 1918, when our boys were engaged in fighting the Hun in order to make this country a safe place in which to live. They did their work well, but the senate of the United States did not back them up, and so today war is again threatening in Europe because of the senate’s failure to ratify the peace treaty. This failure is the cause of a coalition between repub- lican and democratic senators, the republicans acting as selfish parti- zans, while the few democrats par- ticipating in this unholy alliance did it as Wilson-haters. This and nothing more. If anything is to ne said in favor of eitner party to this unpatiotic procedure truthfulness and candor would impel us to the side of the republicans. But mind you, good reader, we are commend- ing neither side. Both are deserv- ing only of condemnation and cen- sure. Senator Smith did all in his pow- er to defeat the provisions of the peace treaty. He even claimed credit for writing the infargous Lodge reservations. Now he is a4sk- ing the people of Georgia to send him back to the senate. They should do no such thing, however, much ability he may possess. Loy- alty and patiotism are woth infi- nitely more in this country now : [HEALTH TALKS | By WILLIAM BRADY, &. D. Sausey Speaks - ' For Governor Dorsey DEFENSE FOR THE CORSET. A female physician has come to thé defense of the corset with this argument: In prehistoric days man fashioned some kind of raiment with which to gird his loins. Later women wore bands to support the breasts. From these beginnings the- modern corset was gradually evolved. Isn’t it reasonable to think apparel which has withstood centuries of satire. and innuendo possesses extraordinary virtue and has not depended upon mere fem- inine vanity for its survival? The doctor*then goes on to say that the medical profession, strangely op- posed to corsets, is only now awak- ening to appreciation of the thera- peutic value of corsets, Similar arguments might be brought forward to support the Chinese custom of binding the feet. The medical profession, always op- posed to that custom. In the pres- ent century has come to realize that in cases of club-feet and flat-feet, sometimes it is very essential to bind the feet for curative effect. Corsets have their proper place in the treatment of certain cases of spinal deformity, sacro-iliac joint strain, ptosis or sagging of abdomi- nal organs and other abnormalities, bue because physicians recognize this valuable purpose it should not be assumed that physicians advo- eate corsets for eVerybody. Itc would be as sensible to suppose that physicians advise everyone to wear arch props or spinal braces. Defenders of the corset as an article of apparel for normal wom- en are hard put to it to find argu- ments which carry any conviction. Of course, there are none. It would be as easy to uphold the wearing of false teeth. False teeth are all right if your own teeth are no good. Corsets serve aS a make- shift if your own muscles are n. g. Corsets gained their popularity in an age when physical education was practically unknown and women were expected to be frail, sickly, delicately organized—as the female nostrum maker would say. Such women are not supposed to be hu- man below the collar bones, Nowadays, girls and young wom- en are getting a better education, a deeper one, which goes down be- low the neck. The better schools and colleges are indeed giving young women a fairly elementary physical training. These girls and young women are the ones who have taken the lead in the eman- cipation of their sex from the cor- set. They have already set a fash- jon, the “corsetless figure’ which physically uneducated dowagers and corset-builders strive in vain to imitate. The perfect feménine form which every woman would like to attain is no product of corsets, but of physical education from early girlhood. Speaking of ptosed or sagging organs, faulty posture and its nu- merous i}] effects, the accumula- tion of ungainly masses of abdomi- nal fat and pads of the same slacker tissue about the hips and thighs, of all the factors concerned in the development of these condi- tions the corset is certainly the foremost. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, Boracte Acid and the Eyes. Some time ago you spoke of the ages of persons who were availing themselves of the somersaultauqua. I have been turning somersaults as suggested by you for sometime and have derived great benefits from it. I am 71 years old. I find that the use of boracic acid solution, about a tablespoonful in the pint of boil- ed water, tends to clear my eye- sight. Is there any harm in con- aoe its use habitually? (J. W. ») ANSWER—I do not advise the habitual use of boric (boracic) acid solution for the eyes. It is harm- less if used for a few weeks. It’ may be harmless .in. your case if used habitually. Boric acid (boracic is the older term) solution is a mild antiseptic, non-irritating. It 's in no sense strengthening to the eyes, as some people imagine. Referred to Secretary Daniels.

In the pending senatorial race. which is now warming up a bit, the public record of achievement of the candidates appeas to be in order. We shall give that of Governor Dorsay first, in that we find it a most constructive -one. Governor Dorsey's administration has been conservative and business- like throughout, d he has made a remarkable shoWing, despite the fact the solons “fell down on the job” this past session of the state assembly. ‘And the executive has made no “fuss” about what he has done, either. Public schools, farms and state highways have come in for special consideration throughout Governor Dorsey's term, and he has used his influence and every means at his command as governor. AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SERVICE. (From The Brunswick News.) Hon. John N. Holder, frequently honored by the great democratic party, now has [ft in his power to render a great service to the pafty. It is conceded that Hon. Clifford Walker is the stronger of the two reatdemocrats now contending for the nomination, while a third party, unworthy of democratic suport, is also jn the race. Holder, by retlr- ing, makes certain the victory of Walker and the defeat of Hardwick, the unworthy. WALKER FAR IN LEAD. (From The Cordele Dispatch.) Cliff Walker has fought himself far into the lead. He 1s suprisingly strong in his smashing fight On Hardwick. John Holder is a poor third, and ought to get out of the race for the Sake of safety. If he Sticks and sacrifices every thing de- mocracy in Georgia will help bury him forever in the future. He can- not afford to make that mistake. Cliff Walker is going to carry Crispcounty. That is not a put-up statement. It was not the wish of The Dispatch, for we had nocholice —had taken no stand that would imperil either Holder or Walker. It Was not wise to doit. Now the fight is so one-sided that it is very im- portant that democrats in Crisp county fall in line and give Walker the vote which will clinch the vic- tory. Walkeris winning. Stand for him and fight for him, if you want this county to register itself -— —" Abbeville, Ga., August 26.—(Spe- cial.)—Hon. Gordon Sausey, one of Savannah’s most gifted orators, will speak to the voters of Wilcox county on Saturday, the 28th inst. Two addresses will be delivered, one at Abbeville at 3 o’clock p. m., and one at Rochelle at 5 o’clock. Mr. Sausey will speak in the interest of Governor Dorsey’s campaign for the United States senate, and those who hear this brilliant orator and loyal Georgian will hear a forceful and convincing exposition of the rea] issues of the campaign. The race in Wilcox\appears to be be- tween Governor Dorsey and Tom Watson, and it is believed that many of the more conservative support- ers of Senator Smith will cast their ballots for the governor in order to make doubly sure the defeat of Watson, To Offset Effects of Damp Weather on a Piano Editor Constitution: The contin- uous heavy rains of the past few weeks have affected almost every piano in this section, causing stick- ing keys and sluggish action. I find many of the owners are placing lighted lamps and using other meth- ods to overcome the dampness that is injurious to the pianos. As the weather man seems to think the rains are over, I thought I would give the piano owners a simple, harmless remedy.

S. A. go still lower than 35 per cent below normal. My wife and myself are Presby- terians, and both were raised as such and we have tried to live according to our religion, but Mr. Editor, it seems that aside from the many that he now attacks us from another angle and sends a horde of his angels to tell us of our children— they are unwelcome. I am an American, seven genera- tions, am a hard worker, perfectly able to support the two children that gladden our home, have been trying to raise them honorably, but I wonder of the many people who tell us “No Children” could realize the heart aches, almost regret, and at times the sadness and gloom that they bring to people's hearts whet they indict us with that now nation- ally known bhattle cry of the devil's army, “No Children,” ; : To the average man’s mind it would seem that our ministers could well or better fulfill their mission by bending their efforts to this sub- ject than they could in their ser- mons on bathing pools, suffrage. womens’ dress and other trifling subjects -when compared to Old Nicky's slick campaign that to my personal knowledge has undermined dozens of families’ faith in the city of Atlanta, “No Children.” ' I know one -minister who is al- ways mixing in such subjects as profiteering, reducing the cost of living. I1f that fellow could just take the time to sit down anid think of the damage that is being done in just this city by the so- called respectable members of his congregation alone by this cam- paign against children he would blush, and hush their satanic wall “No Children.” There is a certain church in this country that has a phrase—‘The Faith of Our Fathers’—and I want iO say in thanks to that church that its members, so far as I have been able to ascertain, and by per- Sonal experience know, are not con- taminated to the degree that our strictly American, (so-called) churches are with a membership that is openly in an alliance witn Old Nicky in his combat with the lorces of right and it seems that we are drifting towards the ways~»of Srance and away from the plan of Our fathers an all singing that devil-created phrase, “No Children.” When a boy, I left my home town in Tennessee and went to the city of Chicago, the vice center of the U. §.. and there were many apartment houses that had signs promingntly | Cisplayed “Ne Children” and Mr.“Ead- tor, 1 will not say what my impres- noblest! sions were as to the character of those places, but you may think your worst, several ‘times, skim off the top, save’ the dregs, sour them— there you have it. After learning that I wag right in these surmises, I then beg&n to no- tice that Detroit, that old French city founded by Cadillac, began to take up the cry against children and fi- nally before I left there it was al- most halt as bad as Atlanta in this respect, but thanks to the large per- centage of property owned by peo- ple of foreign girth it was not pos- Sible for “high-minded” property Owners to influence this class of property Owner, but along came our triend (9) Nicky, and almost before we realized these people became Americanized, and.then those broken accents sometimes “No Kids” again No Familee” (in this case you gain- ed the impression they meant “just living together’ as there are so many hundreds of couples doing in Detroit), and then almost oud enough to be heard a block and in plain American (and firm) “No Children.” ~* Mr. Editor, should you be the proud father of any children you can realize my, and other men’s, feelings that are repeatedly being insulted day after day, and turned down time after time, as 1 have been, even though-l have offered to pay for any damage my children did do to anyone’s property, and then again, you should get my idea that I am confessing the bending of a Chirstian nation, founded upon the basis of religion, founded up the will of the devil. As surely as the son of Eli turn- ed from the ways of the Lord, caus- ing an end to come tothe house of Eli, it seems that our ministers are turing to the filthy Iucre and per- mititnge members of their congrege- tions to even publish ads, “No Chil- dren,” and there is no reason why the Lord should show. them any more consideration than he did the high-priest, Eli. Georgia has some Very progres.- sive jegislation and I hope that a law will be passed against advertisine “No Children” plac and putting a epecial license on these places thar will be a good substitute for the revenue that used to be paid by the whisky traffic and the red light districts. Why tax legitimate bus:- nesses to death when, as one ladv said to me near the Georgian terrace that her place had been rented to four ladies and the five rooms brought $250 per month, but -she would rent to a couple with “No Children” for $160, per month, there's $1,200 the city and state is missing. My letter, Mr.Editor, is not intend- ed as a discourtesy to a person or persons finding it necessary to have special quiet in a home, but is a challenge to the “near-educated”’ crank that has sprung .up in the jast ten years and as 1 have gaid to those who have joined the forces of evil in undermining the morals of a nation. Should I by this article, cause one person to think of the serious harm that they are doing, and cause just one person to think strongly enough to get out of satan’s hosts, then I shall be amply repaid for the effort.

Moultrie, Ga, August 26.—(Spe- cial.)—Before a crowd of approxi- mately 600 citizens of Colquitt coun- ty, which filled the courthouse and overflowed into the hallways, Hon. Clifford Walker, candidate for gov- ernor, delivered a speech here this afternoon which aroused his hear- ers to frequent outbursts of en- thusiasm. Mr. Walker had traveled from Mc- Rae in order to fill his speaking engagement here. It is felt that the race will be exceedingly close in Colquitt county and the Walker supporters were particularly anxious that he should speak here. The Hardwick opposition is strong in this county, although Walker work- ers believe that they will succeed in placing the county in the Walker column on September 8. Mr. Walker declared that Geor- gia had set herself a summer’s task of eradicating Hardwick and said he had devoted his entire efforts to this cause. He made no refer- ence to either of the other candi- dates, Brown or Holder, in his speech, confining his remarks al- most altogether to the official rec- ord of Ex-Senator Hardwick. He opened his speech with an outline of the Brown constructive policies which he advocates for the benefit of the state and its citizens, and promised his utmast efforts for bet- ier schools, better roads and the in- 4rease in home-owners in the state. He declared the greatest need of Georgia today to be for a better - educational system, particularly for most graciously of the rural districts. In arraigning his opponent Hardwick, Mr. Walker stuck closely to the official record. Hie warned against the growing menace of the influx of foreign bolshevik agitators into this coun- try and read an Associated Press dispatch from New York describ- ing a socialist meeting at which Hardwick had spoken at which time he had been introduced as the “next gwovernor of Georgia.” Mr. Walker asked what right nada tnese foreign socialists to presume _ to a Georgja governor. He. severely condemned Hardwick for aecepting $30,000 to represent Martens and his bolshevik associates before United States courts which sought to have them depurted. / Mr. Walker especially warned the south. On uccount of the efforts of the emissa:.es of Lenin and Trotzky among the negroes. He read United States department of justice reports showing how the reas are large'y responsible fer the racial unrest among the negroes of the north and showed how negro magazines were advocating strikes of southern ne- gro cptton workers “to bring the white south to its knees.” He deciared that any man who would, for a fee, give counsel and aid to a #e* o men who would do such things as this, was unfit to be the governor of Georgia. Mr. Wal- ker was accorded a splendid recep- tion by his friends here. The race in Colquitt county is going to be exceedingly close between Walker and Hardwick, with practically no! vote for Holder or Brown. At noon, S. H. Baggs, well-known Moultrie business man, entertained af a luncheon at the Colquitt ho- in Mr. Walker's honor. Among those present were George D. Mott, T. W. A. Wamble, G. W. Newton, Lawrence Shealy, John Clark, Jr., Rev. George Clark, Spencer Harrell, Bill Taft, Park Harper, Mr. Baggs and Mr. Walker. Rev. Mr. Clark introduced Mr. Walker at the meeting. Mr. Clark is a well beloved Baptist minister of Colquitt county and he _ spoke Mr. Walkers high personal integrity and his fit- ness for the great office to which he aspires. He introduced him as ‘the next governor of Georgia.” Hoke Smith spoke here this morn- ing in his campaign for the United states senate. Mr. Smith also spoke in the courthouse. The courtroom was crowded for both speeches and its capacity is estimated at about 600. New Steamship Line. Savannah, Ga., August 26.—(Spe- eial.)—Facilities for transporting by water cotton from the big cotton port of Savannah to the immediate ‘enter of the New England manu- facturing region will be made~pos- sible im the near future, according ‘o a well-established report current here today to th eeffect that.a new soustwise steamship line is soon to be opened between Savannah and New Bedford, Mass. Berthing space for the vessels of the new line, it is anderatood, has already been &e- sured here. The New Bedford mills use approximately two million pales of cotton annually. Interests ‘here recently decided to establish closer transportation connection with the cotton fields and inspec- ‘ion of the ports of New Orleans, talveston and Savannah was made. nominate | | Diamonds Sold on Easy Terms You can buy a diamond by paying only one-fifth cash.

In C. F. von Herrmann, in whose capable hands liés the burden of forecast- ing Atlanta’s weather possibilities, an exception to the rule is frend. Hoodoo days mean nothing in his young life. His official forecast for Atlanta and vicinity for Friday, the 27th, is fair weather, and holds ev- ery prospect for continued sun- shine. Very few places in the cotton belt reported rain during the past 24 hours. There is, however, consid- erable cloudiness reported across the central part of the belt from Montgomery, Ala., west to Taylor, Texas. Very little precipitation oc- curred elsewhere in the country. Temperatures are generally moder- ately higher in all sections as well as at home, ! afternoon the official figures at the Atlanta station read 78. Following a summary of weather and crop conditions in the cotton belt issued by Mr. von Herrmann, another synopsis has been issued by Charles F. Marvin, weather chief, Washington, D. C. His re- port follows: “The week averaged normal in temperature in the central and east- ern parts of the cotton belt, but below normal in the northwestern. The rainfall was moderate to heavy in the northwest and in many cen- tral and eastern localities. “The progress of cotton was poor or it deterfOrated in many locali- ties On account of continued wet soil, although the progress of the crop was mostly about the average to very good tricts of the belt. “The weather was too cool and wet in Oklahoma, where cgtton is making rank growth, but.the con- dition continues satisfactory to very good. Cotton deteriorated in Arkan- sas, Louisiana, portions of south- ern and central Alabama and Geor- gia, but made satisfactory progress in Tennessee and northern Missis- sippi. Picking is progressing in southern and central Georgia.” RED CROSS HEADS HOLD CONFERENCE AND RETURN HOME Red Cross public health nurses and home service secretaries closed a most interesting and helpful con- ference Thursday afternoon at 4 o’clock, The morning session: was given over to a giscussion f organization plans, the meeting being addressed by Manager J. L. McMillin and Assistant Manager Legare Da- vis. Delegates asked numerous questions that brought out informa- tion both from’ division workers and those in the field. Chapter leaders gave valuable pointers in matters pertaining to organizing methods in the various sections of the division.,. ° Mr. McMillin announced that 92,- 000 persons, under Red Cross tute- lage, had qualified in hygienic work, pointing out tHe value of such training in improving health conditions throughout the country. This subject was further discussed in the afternoon session by Miss Mary Arthur, director of the Bu- reau of Dietician service. Miss Ar- thur distributed among the dele- gates a bulletin outlining what ex- perts declare a most perfect diet. Joseph Logan presided at the aft- ernoon session. The discussion for the most part dealt with the ques- tion of the relation of the paid worker’s activities to financial] sup- port. The effort was to learn whether or not the worker should have any active part in Securing funds with which to finance the movement, or leave it to the execu- tive committee of the chapter. It was the prevailing opinion that the chapter alone should assume _ re- Sponsibility for the financing of all such activities.

Charles Paddock and Loren Murchison were both ruling favor- ites for the event as a result of their great races in the preliminaries and in the 100 dash event.

Looking at the situation as it stacks up at present, we see no way to offer any prediction about the outcome of the match, and not see- ing our way clear, we won’t offer one. good quality that will come ‘in handy during capable of , putting forth a pretty Feught the Good Ones. Sam McVea has fought about all the good ones that ar- in the game and he still lives to tell-.the tale. Listed among his opponents, we find such names. as Jack Johnson, Sam Langford, the “Boston Tar Baby;” Joe Jeannette and Harry Wills, recént blaster of Fred Ful- ton’s hopes for a crack at Jack NDempsey’s heavyweight crown. Fred thought he stood next in line for a chance at the champion; but we haven't heard that he’s \still labor- ing under any such impression. Sam will combine experience with a good left hand to gain the deci- sion, and while the writer has never | seen McVea.-in action, others have, | and from this number we draw the conclusion that the dusky warrior can hit, and probably. will do it/! during his match with Jack Ward. | One thing. is certain, if these chron- iclers of past battles are to be be-'! lieved—and some of them are—Jack | will have a good sized job on his| hands in disposing of McVea, and | it is needless to say that a great crowd of spectators, white and col- ored, will file through the doors of the Auditorium to see the exist- | i ing differences settled for all time. | Ward Is Big. Back to Ward, we find, after a talk with Manager Ross, that Jack weighs 190 pounds at this time, with the wager good that he’ll work off a pound or two before Wednes- day. He's big, all right, standing six feet one inch in his cotton stockings—if he hasn't prospered enough to wear more expensive ones. The writer neglected to ask Mr. Ross ho much his gladiator was batting in Father Time's league, but we don’t suprose Jack is any #pring chicken. He couldn't be, and have fought all the matches that are shown opposite his name in the boxing records, Speaking of Ward's opponents | since he's been grabbing a meai ticket from the railbirds of the universe, we discover he has fought Kid Norfolk. Jeff Clark, Sam Lang- ford, ttling Jim Johnson. Ser- geant y Smith, “Ropgehhouse” Ware, Britt Sims, Jack Reck, Tom Cowler, Joe Jeannette and other men that space won't permit us to print. Of the results of these battles. we find that he stepnred into. total destruction only once during his entire career, and that time from the very capable mitts of Sam. Langford, who, by the way. has snuffed out many a light that was shining brightly along the white way that leads to heavy- weight supremacy. One Punch Did Trick. We have Mr. Ross’s word for it that one punch from Sam turned the trick, and that Jack later fought the old veteran to a stand- still. His first fight with Lang- ford lasted just forty-five seconds. when a thuderbolt fell out of the heavens and stmick* Ward on the point of the jaw. After recovVerinc Ross sent Ward into action against Sam once more and the tables executed one of their fabled turnings. In the Kid Norfolk-Ward ficht, at Panama, the police broke into the festivities during the seventeenth round, when Norfolk’é supporters started a stampede for the ropes when their favorite appeared to be getting the hotest end of the stick. He won a newspaper decision over Jeff Clark in Atlantic City after eight rounds of terrific mauling. Battling Jim. Johnson was escorted to the hospital after he hadi been engaged in combatting Ward for three rounds: Sergeant Ray Smith SWapped blows for a trio of frames, and then found a resting spot in the middle of the ring, regaining Each of the battlers has some the mill, and either is lusty wallop. ‘ | the crowd had filed out of the Daws ton, Ohio, baseball park. Simms Knocked Out. Britt in the seventh round of their fight at Tulsa, QOkla., was held for a-six-round draw at Philadelphia shortly after Simms was knocked out. Mr. Ross stated last night that Ward will work out Saturday at the colored Odd Fellows’ home on Au- burn avenue. Jack expressed a de- Sire to see the Black Crackers play a double-header this ‘afternoon at Ponce de Leon park, and his mana- ger consented to permit him to let one workout slip by. Matchmaker Gooper stated yes- terday that tickets for tW@ fight are on Sale at the following places: Worthy’s Smoke House, The Rex, the Gate City barber shop and Capitol buffet. Harry Harper Still Hitting All Pitchers. The hardest man in the Southern | league to stop today appears to be Harry Harper, leading swatter of the SouthernaJeague,.who plays un- der the colors of the Little Rock Travelers. Yesterday afternoon, against the Pelicans, Harry nam- mered out three doubles in four trips to’ the platter, making the thirty-first game in which he has jJanded safely. He might go on un- til the end of the season without missing a day, and the pitcher that Stops him is certainiy entitled to a victory over the Kidders, Strange to say, Harry’s efforts were not enough to stem the tide of the Pelicans’ triumph, the Crescent City pastimers winning the count by a 6 to 1 margin. “Bub” Jon- nard pitched for the Travelers, and Jonnard was hit hard, jusf as everr« one expected he would be. Kid El- berfeld sent Zeke Lohman to the Vols in exchange for Jonnard. and the scribes of the circuit have never been convinced that Rov Ellam didn’t get the best end of the deui. Zeke has pitched several vood kames for the Ellamites. including a no-hit performance against the Frankmen, but we don’t recall that Jonnard ever turned in a really Ereat exhibition since he’s been in Akansas.~“ LAMAR-RANKIN WINS FROM SWIFT & CO.

Lloyd-George to Return To Lead in the Fight Against Big Coal Strike London, August 26.—Premier Lloyd-George will return to Eng- land at once from Lucerne to su- pervise the efforts of the govern- ment to prevent the natronwide coal strike, according to reports in of- ficia] circles Wednesday. The lat- est figures compiled here in the na- tionwide ballot by the miners showe- ed 19.212 in favor of striking and 6,596 opposed. The greater portion of the ballot- ing repagted to date has been from the extremist districts. In South Wales for example, the balloting has given the strike proposal a ten to one indorsement. In the Midland and Yorkshire dis- tricts the great body of the work- ers have shown themsetves indiffer- ent or hostile to’ the strike with those voting in favor of the walk- out largely of the younger element among the miners. In spite of the trend of the figures thus far reported the situation was looked upon in official circles as more promising because of antic- ijpated intervention by other unions.

The game was a “retty pitchers’s¢ bat- tle, although the Knoxville mounds- man was touched for seven sefe- ties, while the Giants were only able to gather three safe swats off the delivery of Flarris. Smith, Knox- Ville’s second sacker, was the bright star with the willow, getting two hits out of t* °-e trips to ¢t DAN. Reid, for Atlanta, secured two safe- ties out of four trips. Wi-~field, Atlanta’s center fielder, was sent from the game in the fifth frame by Manager Talty, of the Atlantans, when he threw his bat at Knox- Ville’s third baseman. Gillam, star first sacker of the Crackers’ fold, played a beautiful game. In Gillam, the local mana- ger has one of the best first corner artists in the colored Southern league. The only fault that we find with Gfllam is that he is a little weak with the willow, but since he has returned to the game after be- ing out for two weeks with a hurt finger, his batting eye seems to be improving. In yesterday’s game he ~ was at bat four times and got one hit, this being a lusty double down the first base line. The two teams will meet this aft- ernoon in a twin bill, the fire* en- eanrtee getting under w a‘ ~. Giesentaner and Johnson wil! -rob- ably be on the mound for the At- lantans, while Dickey and M"d‘’ox w probably work for the Giants. Maddox is the one-armed wonder of the colored Southern league, and, in f- -. is the only such nlave: tn or- ganized baseball. While not on the mound Maddox will be seen “hasing flies in the center pasture. At the bexinning of the 1920 season he s signed by th* m - of the BPilen* Oeenl-ore, but + ° released to the Knoxville Giants. In yesterday’s game he was playing center field and had a fairly busy day acceptine four hard h° alls without a bobble. At bat he ts good, as he hits a ball further than any ther plaver on the team. although most of them are of the fly variety and can be caught easily if the fielders are playing back.

Arliss—After long resisting the temptations held out by the motion picture, George Arliss, one of the most distinguished actors of the stage, has succumbed: He will be presented by Andrew J. Callaghan Productions in an elaborate film version of “The Devil.” In this Stage play Arliss scored his great success.

The cast of “Kismet” includes Rosemary The- by and Elinor Fair. Jolson—Reports have it that Al Jolson is about to go into pictures —that he is already under contr&ct with Associated . Exhibitors.

THEATERS Amusement Directory} __ MOVIES Lyric (B. F. Keith’s Vaudeville)— Vinie Daly, one of the Famous Daly Family and formerly of Hammer. stein’s Opera company, headlines the last half of the week in a singing offering. Other acts are Harry An- trim, “The Odd Bellow;” Boyd and Hunter, comedy entertainers; Girard Brothers, equilibrists; Rhoda Ches- ter and Lillian Allen, musical com- edy girls. Pictures—Pathe News, Bray Pictorial, Topical Tips. Loew’s Grand—Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Esther Trio, Sensa- tional novelties; Robb and Whitman, “Back to School Days,” a comedy playlet; “The Royal Harmony Five,” society vocalists; Al Hawthorn and Johnny Cook—without rhyme or reason—and Frear, Baggett and Frear, the “Jazzologists of ,Base- ball,” also a first-run feature pho- toplay; Frank Mayo, in “The Red Lane” and Lirew’s News pictures from all parts of the world together with comedies. “A Chorus Girl’s Romance.” (At the Forsyth.) The theory gometinres advanced that a good magazine story does not mean a good picture certainly is refuted in Viola Dana’s new photoplay, ‘“‘A Chorus Girl’s Ro- mance,’’ which began a three days’ engage-: ment at the Forsyth Thursday, a picturiza- urday Evening Post story, ‘‘Head and Shoulders.’’ The story*has to do with the romance and later the marriage, and still later the very amusing and sometimes very pathetic, but always very human, vicissitudes of_a chorus girl with a propensity and gift for shimmying, and a scholarly prodigy at Yale. Miss Dana was at her bewitching best throughout the entire play, and Gareth Hughes, her leading man, gave decidedly his share toward tHe pleasing success of the picture. Tom Gallery, Lawrence Grant and Ed- ward Johnson all deserve special mention for the excellent support they gave the picture, The largest crowd of recent months greeted Miss Dana at the opening of this picture, The Paramount Magazine, the Burton Holmes Travalognue and the Fox News Weekly were interesting and well received. Keith’s Vaudeville. (At the Lyric.) Better vaudeville programs have been seen at the Lyric than the offering for the last three days of the present week, but taken as a hole, the bill now running af- fords some splendid entertainment features and is one that maintains the Keith reputation for class in acts ard ensemble. No particular act stands out on the program, all being ably executed and well staged. Vinie Daly, billed as “one of the famous Daly family and formerly of Hammerstein’s Opera company,” takes headline place with a.wsong and nce number that is very at- tractive. Miss Daly’s songs were well received by Monday afternoon's audience, her accompanyments be- ing played by Rubin Bloom. Rhoda Chester and Lillian Allen, “those two musical comedy girls,” open the show with a spicy turn that puts the audience in a pleas- ant frame of mind, and Harry An- trim makes the théater sound like @ great barnyard with *'- clever animal imitations. Bond and Hun- ter company offer a “comedy enter- tainment” that is chiefly noteworthy of mention only by reason of the fact that our fathers laughed so heartily in their youth over its moss-covered combination of “the nigger and the ghost.” Girard Brothers close the bill with a good gymnastic act, and the pro- gram is also strengthened by the regular run of news and feature pictures. At p an Grand. (Vaudeville.) If ever a vaudeville bill com- bined the essence of variety—that is on view at Loew's Grand during the first half of the week takes the honors. From grand opera mel- odies beautifully sung to nut come- dians, the bill travels gracefully. Headlining the show is the Royal Harmony Five and they well de- serve their position. As a rule, the classical melody has little place in vaudeville, rather ,does the iazz elicit the greatest applatise, but the three men and two women who form the act are not only splendid singers, but they have chosen their songs with a very accurate estimate of what the public wants Their ensemble rendition of the Carmen medley was in itself worth the ad- mission ice and one of the women sang “Your Eyes Have Told Me So,” sufficiently well to do what they call in theatrical parlance, Criterion Theater—Al!l week, “Go Get It,” a thrilling newspaper mys- tery; Byron Warner, tenor; Topics of the Day, Pathe Review. ‘Strand Theater—Thursday, Fri- rday, Saturday, Roy Stewart in “The Lone Hand;” also good comedy. tion of F.

From the su- blime to the _ ridiculous brougnat forth Hawthorn and Cook, two men who style their act, “Without Rhmye or Reason,” which describes it perfectly. They played on toy instruments and kidded themselves and the audience into a state of ec- stacy and rare good humor. The Esther Trio are two pretty girls and a mere man do some amazing tlip-flops and hand Dalancing, par- ticujJarly the man on a table, and othér precarious perches. Robb and Whitman do a school boy and girl skit that is tuneful and humorous, and Frear, Baggett and Irear ‘em- onstrate that a straw hat can be made to do almost anything. Their juggling is out of the ordinary in its excellence. Oh, yes, don’t miss seeing a pair of trick ears pos- sessed by Johnny Cook, of the team of Hawthorn and Cook. The fea- ture photoplay for the last half of the week at the Grand is Frank Mayo in “The Red Lane,” a thrili- ine story of border smugglers, to- gether with Loew’s News pictures trom the four corners of the earth and comedies. “The Lone Hand.” (At the Strand. Roy Stewart, the famous western star, packed the Strand Thursday to the doors with his new screen success, ‘“‘The Jone Hand,’’ one of the best productions that this big gun-fighter has given the silent drama this season. Those who like real western pictures, with plenty of excitement and daring action will surely enjoy this photoplay. “Go and Get It.” (At the Criterion.) It has remained for Marshall Neilan to bring forth a picture that combines the elements of-a deep scientific present day question with a plot that holds human in- terest as its fundamental objective. This production is ‘‘Go and Get it,’’ which is play- ing this week at the Criterior theater, a pic- ture differing from anything ever before seem! On the screen. The production centers about the successful operation of a sur- geon in transplanting the brain of a human into the skull of a gorilla. The newspaper angle is related to the story by vrtue of the fact that a newspaper reporter, in structed by his city editor to “Go and Get It’’ is credited with selving the mystery. Other features of the program are ““Topics of the Day,” the Pathe Review and vocal so- los by Byron Warner, the well-known At- lanta tenor. “Going Some.’’ (At the Rialto.) Only two more days remain for those who havé not seen Rex [Reach’s famous comedy-drama, “Going Some,’’ to do 80, as this feature will positively close its en- gagement at the Rialto on Saturday night. This is the first of a series of comedy (ramas that Mr. Beach will write for the screen, and if the rest of them are half as good as this, it’s a sure thing that his success In the lighter order of pictures will be as great as in the heavier one«. “Going Some"’ is all the name implies, for it “‘goes some’’ from the minute it hits the screen.

SPOTS IN NE WYORK. Minimum Price Set for Cotton ‘Americus, Ga., August 26.—¢Spe- cial.)—If a price of $65 per ton for cotton seed can be obtained, forty cents per pound represents the cost of producing a pound of cotton in the Third Congressional district, it was decided by a 2suom- mittee of a called district meeting of members of the American Cot- ton association at the city ha!l to- Cay, and this decision, embw lied in a report, was adopted by the meet- ing without change. Forty cents was declared to be the minimum cost price for cotton, and does not represent a profit. if seed bring less than $65, the cost of cotton per pound will be higher and vice versa. The meeting was one of the most important ever held in this section, although only a few were present from other counties. It was pre- sided over by A. F. Hodges, chair- man of the Sumter county branch of the Georgia division, and was called for the purpose of di'scuss- ing and determining a fair figure which will be used at coming con- ferences and determining a fair price for which the farmers wil) be asked to hold cotton. More than one hundred farmers were present, as well as business men. Schley. Decoly and Ben Hill were the coun- ties outside of Sumter represented. Cotton Region Bulletin.

DUGGAN & BOUDER New Orleans, August 206.—(Spectal.)— There is much apprehension lest the rains continue west of the Mississippi and lower the grade of open cotton. Complaints of deterioration from one cause or another ure increasing in most districts. The campaign for the formation of a hold- ing movement throughout the south is mak- ing progress and the federal reserve bunks are being appealed to In an effort to *ob- tain the necessary financial assistance to care for the new crop. Developments’ in the export department during September and thereafter are likely to be more encouraging as a good business is noted in new crop arrivals in south Texas in preparation for shipments in future. e world will probably need 13,000,00u baies or more of American cotton this sea- son against 12.735,000 last season, and wil: have to depend almost entirely on the new crop for its wants this season. While private returns indicate a yieid in excess of 13,000,000 bales exclusive of linters, there is uncertainty as to what the next bureau will point to, Furthermore, the crop is not made yet and advices to hand of Iate indicate steady deterioratioa. with prospects of becoming worse in the fu- ture, H. & B. BEER New York, Angust 26.—(Special.)—The weather has improved with indications «f clear warm weather, which is very ‘much desired to zive the proper fruit for the plant, So far no large spot demand is reported; in fact, spinners are working on a hand-to- mouth basis. We would not be surprised to see a further upturn, which would furnish a better gell- ing basis. General economic conditions have not improved and at this time there are ho indications of a change for the better. J. W. JAY & CO, New. York, August 26.—(Special.)—The trade are generally looking for a further de- cline after the coming crop reports. They are expecting a steadier tone during the next few days, as commitments are evened up before the government report. HUBBARD BROS. & CO. New Orleans, August 26,—(Special.)— Buying attributed to houses with spot con- nections promoted further covering In the cotton market today, and lifted prices more than 100 points from the lowest reached soon after the opening. Initial depression was ascribed to rather favorable private weather reports and realization that Wednesday’s late. storm apprehension might have ven overdrawn. The map, however, showed look- ed-for raing in the western belt and the forecast called for unsettled for that part of the cotton region, in which greatest in- terest now centers, because of the move ment of new cotton in Texas, FENNER & BRANE. New Orleans, August 26,— Special. )— While still sensitive to bearish ome thn cotton market now ae a strong under- tone and shows good rallying power after momentary aks, There are some signs of a little better spot demand developing slight improvement in dry goods situation also reported. Reports of deterioration are c ing from many parts of the belt, particularly Texas, Alto- gether the cotton situation appears to he shaping up more bullish and we think thet purchases on breaks from now on are likely to prove profitable, es Mally for ick turns, NORMAN MAYER & » New York, August 26.— (Special. }—Tie short covering continued today until Octo ber contracts had crossed the 28-cent mark. At this point, however, there was very heavy Wall street selling, with tndications of an attempt to discourage purchasing in the past few ys. However, shert cover- tng alone has no ttaken piace, as there has been substantial trade buying going on: in . We believe there is still considerable foe ino ca on will cover in the wext ew days a refore we expect th pres- ent advance to continue. JOHNSTON BROS. Cotton Seed Oil.

Cause Rise In Rail Stocks Industrial List Weak at First, But Finally Fol- lows Rails Upward. British Holders Liqui- dating. BY WALTER B, BROWN, Editer New York Commercial. Writ- ten for the United Ne-«, New York, August 26.—Railway shares were the leaders in today’s stock market, and a!l*hough the in- dustrial list showed some weak- ness at times, it finally yielded to the strength displayed by the rails and followed them upward. The fact that the new rate schedules went into effect today may have had some phychological bearing on the advance in rates, although the situation is no different from what it was a week or two weeks ago. It means, however, that the ad- vance is an accomplished fact, and that definite provision had there- fore been made to take care of our transportation system when the gov- err~ment guarantee expires on Sep- tember 21. It is not too much to say that the rail stocks have still some distance to go before they discount all the advantage accruing to them under the new condition of affairs. That they have not made further advance at this time is due to the fact that the stock market is hampered by lack of credit facilities which, had they been forthcoming, would undoubtedly have resulted in an ad- vance in the rails that would have heen little short of spectacular. Con- sequently, there is an amount of buying going on at the present time strictly as an investment proposi- tion, *©*” also taking into calcula- tion that t*>- time pron credit will be easier and the restraint removed. Another factor in the situation re- garding the rails is one that has been quite generally overlooked. and that is that there has been some considerable liquidation of British holdings in order to provide funds for the Anglo-French loah due in October. The Bank of England’s weekly Statement shows an improvement in its position with its rati. of re- serves,to deposits 14% per cent, as agains® 12% per cent a week ago, 10% per cent at the beginning of August and 8% per cent, the rec- ‘ord low rate of this generation re- ported at the end of last June. The improvement has been accomplished through the reduction of outstand- ing rediscounts, revealing that Eng- lish financiers are facing problems similar to our own, and their dis- count rate is now 7 per cent as against 5 last August, serving to restrict credit to necessary onera- tions. An important development in the cotton situation is revealed by the action of the South Carolina Cotton association, which at a largely at- tended meeting at Columbia on Wednesday swore before the “god of justice” that they would not sel]! their cotton at prevailing -prices They adopted plans for the forma- tion of an export corporation with a capital stock of 1,000,000 bales, “ledeed themselves to retire 25 er cent of the new crop from the mar- ket and agreed to reduce the acre- age of the 1921 crop by one-third. A meeting of the American Cot- ton aBBociation has been called for September 1, to take similar action, and other state associations are likely to follow suit. They declare they cannot make a profit at the. Present price of cotton and so pro- pose to raise other crops. The cot- ton ees are now in a stronger position thdn thev hove been since the civil war, and a movement of this kind cannot be ignored as easi- ly as it might have been in the is sure to come past.

New York, August 26.—The local market for raw sugar was dull and depressed, with quotations entirely nominal. There is sfil} practically no buying interest except from one refiner and from operations at from 2 to 3 cents mider the last sale, which was on the basis ef 12.04 for Cuba centrifugal, dnty paid, some weeks ago. Holders are resist ing the low bids, and sugar arriving here ‘s being put in store rather than meet the low views of buyers. Later in the day it de- veloped that there had been a sale of 35,000 tongs of new, crop Cubas, Jauuary, February and March khipment to the Far East at a price equai to or better than 11 cents ¢,i.f. New York. This, it is believed, will have a steadying effect on the-local market and holders of raw sugar which have recently been placed in store will continue to hold for a better selling basis now that Cuba hax found an outlet in the Far East for its product. In refined sugar, conditions are unchanged. with fine cranulated quoted at 17 to 17.16 cents by refiners, although the light demand passing is being supplied by second-hand sugars at 15:50 to 16 cents less 2 per cent. Raw sugar nominal: refined dull and easy; fine grannlated, 17@17.10 cents. Coffee. New York, August 26.—There was contin- ed switching from near to late months in the nurket for coffee futures today. but oth- erwise trading was comparatively quiet, with prices higher, reports of a steadier tove In Brazil and taik of firmer cost and freight offers. The market opened nnchanged to 7 points higher and sold about 20 to 30 points above last night’s closing ficures, with Decem- ber touchirg 8.80 and March 9.45 on cover- ing or scattered buying.

A better inquiry was reported for spot coffec. but prices unchanged at 8% for Rio 7a and 14% to 15% for Santos 4s. No frech offers from Santos were reported in the cost and freight markets. Offers of Rio 7a were ere 1% cent higher at 8.50, Americar credits. The official cables reported a decline of 275 reis in the Rio market, but an advance of 75 to 175 reig in Santos futures.

Grains Down—Corn and Oats Off—Provisions Advance. Chicago, August 26.—All grains were effected by the early strength in wheat today, but the prices were not maintained, a reaction carrying prices toward lower levels. At the finish wheat was unchanged to 1%c lower, with December 233% to 233% and March 228. Corn showed a net loss of 4c to 1%c and oats were off % to %c. Provisions, however, rul- ed strong at a 12%c to 50¢ advance. Streneth was shown early in the wheat market, but the decline in other grains served to temper bull- ish sentiment. Weakness at Min- neapolis also had some effect here. December showed a firm undertone, but did not maintain its advance. while March was under pressure, there wveing buying of the former and selling of the latter, which caused a material spread between the two deliveries. Export demand was slow and bids . from abroad somewhat lower. There was free selling of corn, but it was impossible to get high prices for futures. After a weak start, the market rallied, but again weakened quickly and closed near the lowest level of the day. Septe er, which was tight at the ope gs. dropped sharply and the genem! sentiment became bear- ish. Country offerings were some- what larger, but the car situation tended to prevent sales to arrive tg news was given little atten- on. Oats were firm early on short cov- ering, but weakened later with corn. Provisions showed a stronger tone on the strength in foreign ex- change and an advance of 15 to 25c in hogs. Offerings, however, were limited and shorts were eager buvers. CHICAGO QUOTATIONS. The following were the ruling prices on the exchange Thursday: Prev. Open. High Low. Close.

C., Auzusz 26.—(Spe- cial.)—Formation of the Cotton Ex- port corporation by the American Cotton association is warmly ap- proved by Governor W. &. G. Hard- ing, of the federal reserve board. in a telegram sent by him to ‘J. S. Wannamaker, president of the American Cotton association, made public today as follows: “Answering your telegram, would state that the policy ofthe federal reserve banks for many monthg past has been so shaped as to enable them to render all reasonable assistance to member banks in facilitating the processes of production and orderly dis- tribution of essential commodities, including the products of mines and factories as well as farms. ‘The crop movement is a seasonal one and in this early stage requires large additional credits. Federal reserve banks are prepared to meet all legitimate demands made upon them by member banks for mor- ing the crops, but your attention is called to the fact that under the law, federal re- serve banks cannot make direct loans, They can only rediscount for member banks, which institutions are obliged to observe the limi- tations prescribed by law upon their loans. “Growers and distributors of agricultural products ‘usually have no broad financial connections and are obliged to depend for accommodations upon lecal banks. Conse- quently, notwithstanding the desire to re- spond fully to the needs of farmers, mem- ber banks frequently find it impossible to ex- tend all accommodations desired. Complaints are made by wool growers and wheat farmers as well as by cotton men of lack of rea¢y markets,and of insufficient transportatiou facilities. The board urges co-operation be- tween banks and producers in order that the burden of carrying crops awaiting transpor- tation to market may be as evenly distribut- ed As poxsible, “If actual sales and full returns are mado it is thought that the most pressing nevds of farmers can be provided for without ex- whausting the eredit faciilties of local banks which have their legal limitations. I had an interview yesterday with the minister of Czecho-Slovakia; who stated that the sea- sonal needs of milis in his count alone for cotton amount to 700,000 bales, but ow- ing to depreciation in exchange and inability to ship gold, it was impossible for the mills to take anything like this amount of cotton nless nine months credits are provided. He tated that ghe mills in his country will be able to pay for raw cotton furnished them as soon as manufactured and sold, and ex- tressed the opinion that a syndicate of mills and banks in his country backed by a guar- antee of his government could give satis- factory assurance of payment at the end of the time specified. “I anticipated the present situation in the year of 1919, when I urged the forma- tion of a large cotton export corporation, Since then congress hag legislated, passing the Edge act, under which these corpora- tions can be formed under a federal char- ter. “Central Europe has the spinning and weaving x the mills and the labor, but lacks r@w material. The south has the raw cotton, If a corporation could be form- ed uyder the Edge act taking cotton in payment for stock there could be opportunity for direct dealings between southern pro- dneers and Kuropean mills. A movement of this kind vould put new life in the market, for it wovld stimulate buying by domestic and British mills. The degree of risk ap- pears to depend upon the stability of gov- ernments in central Eu and if capital not interested in cotton growing does not care to assume this risk it must be borne by producers themeclves. “The cotten situation can be improved by calamity talk which can only lead to fur- = ther depression, but it can be saved if there | is injected a get-together spirit of courage self-reliance and determination, foilowed by | prompt action along tive lines. People w help themselyes are , assured of the most dependable and effective help. Courage breeds confidence, and noth- ‘ng succeeds like success.’’ : 2.229 pock- | ; fresh gathered firsts 53@5ts | One of @ series of advertisements by the Mille: Mig.

Washington, August 26.—President Wilson sent to a mass meeting of women held tonight to ‘celebrate ‘the ratification of the nineteenth amendment, an expression of -his @ratification at the enactmient of éqau) suffrage. His message was delivered by Secretary of State Col- by, the only male speaker who ap- peared before a great crowd of cit- _izens, 90 per cent of whom were women. & $=—Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, presi- § dent of the National American Woman Suffrage association, de- scribed “the last battle,” and other women prominent in the tong fight completed by Tennessee's” ratifica- tion, spoke of the incidents that marked the last Gays of the strug- gle. Called by the President. Mr. Colby, whose appearance had been greeted with applause, said the president had called him over the private telephone wire between the white house and the state de- partment a short time after he had signed the proclamation anda asked him if he had been invited to speak at the meeting tonight. The -president expressed satisfac- tion and the hope that nothing would prevent the secretary from accepting. _ “ “Will you take the opportunity ‘that will be afforded you? the secretary quoted the president as @aying, ‘to say that I deem it one of the greatest honors of my life that this great event, so stoutly fought for, for so many years, should have occurred during .the period of my administration as pres- ident, and please tell my fellow citizens that nothing has given me more pleasure than the privilege of doing what I could do to hasten the day when the womanhood of the nation would be recognized on the equal footing it deserves.’” Mr. Colby added that the presi- dent would be the last man to seek for his party the credit for the victory. Mr. Colby urged the women of America not to place too much stress on party, but to take their place in national affairs as Americans and fight for patriotism and right, seeking always the “safe- ty and honor of America,” and not use their vote in the “creeping, crawling partisan spirit.” Mrs. Catts’ description of the fight in the different legislatures and es- pecially in that of Tennessee, was ‘given with much earnestness, some reasm and a touch of bitter- ness. Third Degree Methods. 1" «She charged the unscrpulous use 11s © of unfair’ methods, especially in ' ‘Tennessee, to prevent a majority vote in favor of the amendment, re- » ferring ot the opposition as “the At invisible government.” ( oe" She declared that the opponents ted “of the amendment had resorted to \—u . third degree methods to intimidate, _ to the stealing of telegrams and, + “even to kidnaping to force an ad- verse vote. One of the stories re- ~~ Jated was that of a systematic ef- | ‘fort to wear out one Tennessee leg- lator, by calling him on the tele- a a a oe * ‘ , a ae ° - ‘ ale od A 5 EG SORE E sBut Nerv oe es ee OE . ce * i United News Staff Corres xe New York, August 26>—~The ae terial. body of the repubi can cei paign sits on’a Marion, iTS perch in the person ot.

W. L. LeConte post No. 81 is the latest Atlanta post to take a stand with Atlanta post No. 1. This post passed resolutions at its last meet- ing indorsing the stand of Atlanta post No. 1 in its “courageous fight and offering to the fullest extent the services and co-operation of the members in the anti-Watson-Hard- wick movement. While the resolutions did not in- dorse the stand of any candidate, they asserted the post to be 100 per cent for Americanism and 100 per cent against radicalism. Speaking Dates Announced. Trammell Scott, chairman of the anti-Watson-Hardwick campaign, announces the gollowing speaking dates of legionaires: Thomasville, August 27, R. G&G. Williams, of William B. Coleman post No. 51. Norcross, August 31, at 11 o’clock, Basil Stockbridge, past commander of the Georgia department of. the legion, and William A. Sirmon, member of the state executive committee from the Fifth congres- sional] district. Lawrenceville, August 2 & 3 o’clock, Basil Stockbridge and W. A. Sirmon. Buford, August 31, 5 o’clock, Basil Stockbridge and W. A. Sir- mon. Other speaking dates will be an- rounceld from time to time, accord- ing to a statement: made by Mr. Scott. In addition to delivering three addresses in three different towns in one day, Mr. Stockbridge and Mr. Sirmon will organize a legion post at Buford, the town in which Tom Watson was arrested, Mr. Scott stated Thursday. ° Legion Post in Buford. ft was announced at the head- quarters of the campaign that this post was being orgunized at the request of a number of ex-service men there since the Watson inci- dent in that town. Communica- campaign headquarters stated that these former service men wishea to aid the drive against the two Toms and telt that the greatest progress could be made as members of the American Legion, Both Mr. Sirmon and Mri Steph- ens, who were in the city, Thurs- day, declared that they had ad- dressed large crowds at Acworth, LaGrange, Calhoun, Moultrie, Wash- ington, Adel and Duluth and that sentiment was fastly crystallizing against both Mr, Watson and Mr. Hardwick. In a statement regarding his stand on the candidacy of Mr. Wat- son and Mr. Hardwick given ou“, Thursday, Mr. Henson declared that he had never been in sym- pathy with any man who was not 'n thorough-accord with the prin- ciples of Americanism. s Statement by Commander. His statement follows: “Tocarry out the letter and spirit of our present state convention, | am compelled to throw myself fully and withoywt reservation into the fight against Hardwick and Watson. To do this, I give expression to sen- timents which I long have cherish- ed. I never have been in sympathy with any man whom I considered not to be in thorough accord with the principles of Americanism fought for by our armies in France, and cherished by all the loyal folks at home. When we have won this victory, we will receive the praise of al] paatriotic Georgians. “It shall be my earnest desire, and my supreme effort to make the legion of service to all ex-sol- diers, sailors and marines, regard- less of whether they are members of the legion or not. “The prime purpose of the legion is expressed in the preamble to its constitution, which is familiar to most every one. This preamble shall be my ‘pillar of fire by night and pillar of cloud by day,’ and nothing will be left undone to ren- der these men that service which it is the pleasure of the American Legion to render. “All true legionnaires and patri- Otic citizens are commended to this fight against our common enemies. We did not want this contest; we did not seek it, but the gauntlet was thrown down to-a bunch’ of men who have never wavered when challenged. “J summon all true legionnaires to council and sustain me in my en@eavors to make the legion of Service to the boys—of Service to our courmry, and an organization of which no unkind word can be justly spoken.” Pegram Discusses Rates Given Roads And Wage Increases Explaining the difference wetween the total raised by increased rates that have been granted the rail- roads and the ainount involved in the higher wages allowed railway employees, Vice Presilent R.

Pe- gram, of the Southern railway, has given out an interesting statement dealing with the wages paid cer- tain classes of railway labor, which is as follows: “Since the recent order of the interstate conunerce commission, authorizing the rail- ways of the country to advance freight rates and passencer fares, came only a few dav's after the award of the railway labor board, xiving Increased wages to certain classes of railway labor, there has been a tendency in some quarters to confuse the two. A few days ago a southern editor was asked: ‘If the railway employees receive an increase in Another Atlanta Post Jéins Anti- Watson-Hardwick Pd ight are advanced so as to yield $1,360,000, 000 what becomes of the difference?’ “The difference \goes to help the railways meet previous increases in wages which were granted by the United States railroad admin- istration, te pay increased prices for fuel, crossties, bridge timber, steel ra¥« and other —inaterials of which the railways use larg» quartities, and, after paying these increased costs, to yield a fair return on the value of the railway property devoted to transpor- tation purposes. Such a return is absolute- ly nevessary if the railways are to be able to attract new capital. This must be had to provide the additional facilities which are badly needed the country over, but particu- larly in the south, where there has been such a great increase in commercial activity. ‘‘The petition of the railways for increased rates was filed in May, long before the award of the labor board, and showed that at that time many railways were not earn- ing their operating expenses. After the award of the labor board was announced the railways filed a supplemental petition asking further increaS$es to meet the additional ex- penses dnd the decision of the commission rr rendered after considering both peti- ons.”’ CENTRAL MAY SPEND Bl SUM IN COLUMBUS $2,000,000 Improvements Planned, Provided City Does Its Part. Columbus, ; Ga., August 26.—( - Cial.)—That ~ Spe the Central of Geor- gia railroad is willing to expend a big sum, estimated at about $2,- 000,000 by Mayor J. L. Couch, if Eleventh street is closed and the company carries out plans to ele- vate its tracks for several blocks, 6liminating two dangerous crossings, was the statements made by that official late tonight. Mayor Couch stated that high of- ficials of the Central would be in Columbus next Wednesdaw and on that evening would discuss the proposition with the board of alder- men assembled at that time for the September session. The city of Columbus, in conjune- tion with the railroad company, has planned to lower Eleventh Street, giving an underpass for ve- hicles entering and leaving the city. However, the elevated tracks would Five two safe entrances and its. The mayor stated that the only hitch in the culmination of the pro- ceedings might be inability of the railroad people to begin work by March, 1921. The official pointing out something must be done at an early date in reference to éliminat- ing of the Eleventh street cross- ing. Present plans being considered by the mayor call for overhead tracks Over Tenth and Twelfth avenue, the latter being the location of the Union depot, which, it is un- derstood, would be remodeled to meet the elevated tracks. ‘ SALEM SUNDAY SCHOOL WINS NEWTON BANNER Covington, Ga.
