Macon, Ga., December 15.—(Spe- cial.) —Following a day of spirited attempts by the defense to break down the testimony of the state's medical experts, the Shepard hear- ing 1s expected to take a sensa- tional turn Thutsday when Mrs. Alice Crandall, the keystone in the _ prosecution’s case, the stand. Detailed. charges of an alleged | poison conspiracy/resulting in the | death of her brother, Fred D. Shep- | ard, wealthy peach grower, will constitute the greater part of her testimony, it is learned from-an au- thoritative source, but other alle- gations of a hardly less sensational hature, which have not as yet beén hinted publicly, are also expected. Discussion of the ahemical effect ‘Ofamercury compounds on the hu- man body took up practically the whole first day of testimony at the hearing Wednesday. Claim Bichloride Found. The defendants, Shepard’s widow, now Mrs. Pauline Elmer; her sis- ter, Mrs. Iona Henry; her son, Er- nest Hopson, and Mrs, Annie Cutts, of Fitzgerald, heard two experts, Pr. John Funke and Dr. Edgar Ever- hart, testify for the state that a mercurial compound found in the viscera of Shepard, showed he had swallowed bichloride of mercury, which the state has asserted was given him in lNquor as a part of a conspiracy to get possession of “hig fortune. Possibility of a claim that Shep- ard’s death might have been due to an overiose of calomel, or of a chemical changé In calomel before or after he had taken it, was indi- cated in cross examination by coun- sel for the defense. The state’s three witnesses, the only ones to testify today, were also asked if it were not possible that indulgence in liquor had caused death. N ve answers were given to each qu tion. They also agreed that “no.or- dinary disease” could have caused the-eendidtion found in the viscera. With the exception of Mrs. Elmer, all the defendants smiled frequently at the sparring between the experts and counsel for defense that marked the lengthy cross-examination. Fred Crandall, of Fort Valley, Ga., nephew of the dead man, was intox- icated on the night Shepard was taken to a Macon hospital last June, where he died, according to testi- money. of Dr. M. S. Brown, of Fort Valley, who described Crandall’s condjdtion as “drunk, gloriously happy” thaht night, but seriously {1] for several days afterwards. Say Crandall Was Poisoned. That young Crandall inadvertent- ly partook of some of the poisoned liquor as that which is alleged to have been given to Shepard, is the contention of the state. The defense is clearly laying the foundation in this hearing for its course of action in the final trial, which will take one of two direc- tions. Having once established the fact that Fred Shepard was a heavy drinker, the defense will then at- tempt to show that his death was the result of alcoholic,. or other is due to take | chemical,: poisoning, rather than the | ‘ result of mercurial poisoning; or it | Shepard xpected to Spring | pes 1 eT | DEFLIS ISSUED BY WESTERN UNION IN CABLE DISPUTE Barbadoes With Amer: ican Lines, Despite Op- | position of Wilson and State Department.

Carlton, presi- dent of the Western Union Tele- graph company, that his company intends to connect its new cable from Berbadoes ‘with its lines in the United States by means of ex- isting cables to Cuba, regardless of the opposition of President Wilson and the state department.

He was one of four wit- nesses examined at the opening of an inquiry into the whole subject of cable communications and from whose testimony the committee de- veloped among -other things that} the All-America Cables, Inc., American concern, is engaged with the support of the state depart- ment, in a fight against the West- ern Telegraph .company, of Great Britain and an effort.to break.the cable mo- nopoly enjoyed by the British com- pany in Brazil.

The committee will continue its inquiry tomorrow and again next week, and it plans to inquire par- ticularly into the matter of the dissemination of American news abroad and the handling of cable messages of American firms seek- ing foreign business. These sub- jects were touched upon generally today and the committee received suggestions from Mr. Carlton that independent cable lines be estab- lished\betwen the United States and Japan and the United States and China for the exchange of news between those countries.

Geneva, December 15.—China to- | day took rank among the principal powers directing the affairs of the world through its entry into the council of the league of nations in succession to Greece. The election of China had been discounted large- ly since the assembly previously had adopted the recommendation of the committee on organization that an- other elective member be allotted to Asia. It was doubtful up to the last moment, however, whether the mem- bers who for the last few days had been advocating Slav or Scan- dinavian representation would succeed with their argument that the Asiatic races could not expect two places on the council while two important European countries were not represented at all. The majority of the delegates, however, hedl to their implied prom- ise, but the success of China was due largely to the personal strength Dr. Wellington Koo, of the Chi- nese delegation, has acquired in the assembly. The delegates ap interested in the election of new states to the league and followed the recommendation of the commit- tee on the admission of new states, which it had long been known as a foregone conclusion they would ap- prove.

Smith, of 1918 Peach- tree road, was arrested and later released from the Fulton county }/Tower under a $5,000 bond, charged with a félony-ang@ misdemeanor, fol- lowing a raid made on her home ‘Wednesday aftertoon by County Po- lice Officers Catés and Head, who entered the house just as city police- women, it is alleged, had secured evidence of malpractice against her. The raid was staged under the | atrection of Mrs. J. C. Davis and Mrs. W. W. Evans, city policewom- en, who made arrangements Tues- day with Mrs. §mith to perform an operation, according to their state- ment mage Wednesday night. Much valuable evidence was taken ig the raid, according to the police, and a list of clients, including women from all parts of the city, is now fin the. hands of the county police and will be turned over to Solicitor John A. Boykin for further investi- } gation, Just before she was released on bond, which was signed by A. P. Herrington, of 24 Fredrica street, Mrs. Smith vigorously denied she was guilty of the charges preferred against her, and declared her arrest was the result of a “frame-up on the part of certain business inter- ests in Atlanta.” She freely dis- cussed the extent of her practice, and said she was a graduate of the Women’s College of Philadelphia, with an M. D. degree. She said she possessed a license as a practicing physician. According to the arresting offi- cers, Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Evans went to the office and home of Mrs. Smith Tuesday and-made arrange- ments fof an operation Wednesday afternoon. At the appointed time the two policewomen, accompanied by Officers Cates and Head, went to the house. ,The two women went in, got so far as the operating room, nut marked money on a table, and Mrs.’ Smith had wrocured in- struments when ‘the officers walked in and made the arrest.

Mr. Holbrook then seemed to com- pletely ios is head, Parker asserts. and, instead of allowing the truck to pass, again went back, compell- ing the driver to turn again toward the Jeft.

That Solicitor John A, Boykin is working towards the indictmet of Floyd Woodwnrd, alleged “brains” of the gambling syndicate which has operated here for the past two years, on a charge of murder, as the result of the shooting and killing of Ed Mills in April, 1919, became known Wednesday. It was indicated that the*testimo- ny at the coroner’s inquest, given by Frank Demandel, who was the star witness for Woodward, has been refuted by others who have appeared before the grand jury dur- ing the past few days. It has alse been established «hat Demandel, who was house detective at the hotel where Mills was killed, was tried and convicted of taking; money from women of aqvesiiGnabie character, and was discharged by the hotel management.

Relativos of the dead man have appeared before the jury andit was learned that physi- cians who attended Mills after he was shot have been summoned to testify. Woodward Undtr Indictment. Woodward is now under indict- ment for’ operating alleged gam- bling houses at 49% Cefitral avenue, and 35% South Broad street, which were raided by the solicitor several weeks ago. Evidence unearthed by the solicitor in these raids brought on the grand jury investigation, which has developed many neW an- gles to the alleged gambling, “wire- tapping’ and swindling operations in Atlanta. R. B. Kelly, who was arrested fol- lowing the raids, and indicted on charges of vagrancy and operating a gambling house, forfeited three bonds, aggregating $5,000, Wednes- day morning when his case was called for trial. Kelly was sched- uled to go on trial before Judge W. E. Thomas, of Valdosta, who ise pre- siding in the emergency division, superior court.

COURT RECESSES Appeal May Cause: Delay. ~ Washington, December 15..— (By the Associated Press.)—Deportation of Ludwig C. A. K..Martens, self- styled Russian soviet ambassador to the United States, is understood to have been virtually decided upon by Secretary of Labor Wilson, who has had the case under advisement since the conclusion a week ago of the hearings in the deportation pro- ceedings. Justification for Martens’ depor- tation is understood to have been found by Secretary Wilson in the costentions of immigration and de- part of justice authorities that the bolshevik agent held office under the soviet regime, which they say sims at the overthrow of the gov- ernment of the United States by fcrce apd violence. _This, according to the anticipated rMing of the sec retary, Drings Martens within jur- isdictione of the act of congress of Yetober 16, 1918, proving for the deportation of any alien belonging to an organization whose purpose is the violent overthrow of the gov- ernment of the United States. President Wilson, whom Secretary Wilson has consulted as to his opin- ion, is understood to have express ed himself as willing to approve the determination of the secretary of la- bor. The question of Martens’ de- ortation is said to have been rought up at yesterday's cabinet meeting and discussed generally. Secretary Wilson is said to plan to release Martens on his own recog- nizance until the day set for his departure fromthe United States for Russia. His réturn is expected to be made by way of Reval, Esthonia. Actual deportation the bolshevik delayed, however, by the -courts stay rtation.

Four -distinct sensations were sprung Wednesday as the probers of city council pursued their inves- tigation into charges against the po- lice and detective departments. W. Woods White, a prominent At« lanta insurance man anda resident of the city for 50 years, told the investigators that a syndicate of crooks has been operating here for a year and a half without molesta- tion; that more than 100 of them were present in the city 2 few weeks ago, and that just one week before the solicitor conducted his se- . ries of raids on alleged wire tap- pers and other gamblers, sixty of the “gang” registered at the same time at one of the places lattr raid- ed by the solicitor. An attempt. by Attorney Tom Goodwin to impeach the character of Attorney Hamllton Lee, one of the witnesses called to testify Wed- nesday afternoon, resulted in a near personal encounter between the two men and a public apology by Mr. Goodwin. Little Scores Board. Former Police Commissioner J. C. Little attacked the police board for allowing gambling games to be Op- erated on the midway during the fair at Lakewood last year. Mr. Lit- tle, whe: was: a’ member last year, Was opposed to these games and charged that a meeting was called without his knowledge and the gam- bling devices: licensed to continue. Testimony was given by Attorney Aldine Chambers, vige chairman of the board, virtually assuming fuil responsibility for the board’s action, ‘admitting that he knew games were in violation of the law, but saying that he offered the motion adopted at an impromptu meeting ‘of the board to let the games run, as the result of statements by fair “of- ficlals that to close them would mean financial: failure that year, and upon they agreemnt not to op- erate them another year. Mr. White’s story was one of the most interesting features of the hearing. Attorney Chambers, con- ducting examinations of witnesses for the police department, pressed him for the source of his informa- tion. Most of it, he said, he had obtain-.- ed through ex-convicts, whom he had befriended, and he refused to divulge their names or to give any other source of knowledge in his possession, Mr. White had been subpoenaed to testify. He said his knowledge was hearsay, and that although he had been hearing reports of amaz- ing activity of crooks in the city he had not given them much crea- ence until after the series of ralds by the solicitor. Then he went to Chief Beavers and gave him consid- erable information of what he had heard.

I think it will be of interest to you, and as [ have not thought of it since, I can only send it in as a friend of Fred’s.” This will was probated in common form by Attorney Brown, named therein as executor of the Fred Shepard estate. Officials for the state announced tonight that they have a warrant sworn out by Dr. Elmer in Jack- sonville against Mrs. Cutts for threatening himself and Mrs. Elmer while there on a visit. It is stat- | ed that this warrant will be intro- | duced at some time as evidence. Mrs. Crandall! is to pay for Dr. Fiverhart’s services, he said, today in reply to questioning by the de- fense. Dr. Brown also said Mr. | Crandall was to pay for his serv- | ices, but Dr. Funke, despite repeat- ed questions on the subject, reiter- ated only that “the solicitor said ‘l’ll see you are paid.’” At Shepard’s Bedside. Dr. Brown told of being called to Shepard's beside last spring and on finding him in great pain and said he and the other attending physician, Dr. Orr, decided to re- move Shepard to Macon for an op- eration. They thought at the time, he said, that there was an obsiruc- tion of the intestines, but the opera- tion disclosed this not to be the case. Shepard’s death was ascribel then to peritonitis, but r. Brown insisted that in the light of the au- topsy he was convinced mercuriai poisoning was the cause. Solicitor Garrett, on re-direct ex- amination, brought from Dr. Brown the statement that “some of the symptoms” shown by young Cran- dall when he became ill the next mer were those of mercurial pvison- ng. Solicitor General Garrett declared tonight following the hearing that he is well pleased with the progress of the case, and announced that to- morrow he will introduce Dr. Nel]- and possibly other medical witnesses. Evidence given by the three wit- nesses who testified for the state today was to the effect that a mer- curic salt, a powerful corrosive, was found in Shepard’s viscera, and that this salt was the cause of his death. The defense pursued three distinct courses in its attempt to break down this testimony; first, that other chemicals og produce the condition found hepard; second, that the mercurit salt found could have resulted from the salivation of calomel in the system and, third, to discount the ability and veracity of the witnesses. The feature of Wednesday was the clash between General Walter A. Harris, counsel for Mrs. Elmer, |} and Dr. Funke. Forty-two witnesses were § an- nounced for Mrs. Henry and Hop- WHY CARRY GERMS IN YOUR THROAT?

The crowd on the second day was much smaller than that which flood- ed the court house on Tuesday. As soon as the court had en convened Solicitor-Generai Garrett requested all witnesses to answer the roll call, The following were named for the prosecution: Mr. and Mrs. R. B.

Mixon. ° Witnesses for the defense were named as follows: Fred Crandall, Mrs. Alice Crandall, Dr. Orr, J. J. Robinson, Leslie Adams, J. S. Haw- | kins, L. L. Thigpen, Eldridge Cutts, L. H. Glenn. Dr. Everhart Testifies. Solicitor Garrett first placed Dr. Edgar Everhart on the stand as an expert chemist who had conducted the analysis upon the viscera of Shepard. Following a series of questions calculated to develop the ability and standing of the witness’ Solicitor Garrett then brought out the de- tails of the first exhumation of Shepard’s body and subsequent chemical tests. Q “What were the results of your first analysis?” ~- A. “I found morphine, and bismuth.” The solicitor then examined the we nees upon his second examina- tion. Q. What,did you receive?” A. “Esphagus, large and small intestines, and spleen.” Q. “After chemical analysis what results did you obtain?” A. tI found’ bismuth, copper and mercury.” Dr. Everhart then explgined the chemical process. Ques. Did you find bichloride of mercury? A. ‘*T do not know, I found a mercuric salt and hydrochloric acid which would yield bichloride.” “How much mercury did you copper, find?” | A. “I found a fifth jof a grain.” In ariswer to further/questions Dr. Everhart state@ that the mercury found indicated a large dose. He also explained that while calomel (mercurous chloride) may change into bichloride (mercuric chloride) in the human system that. the amount of . bichloride' resulting would be very small.

A. “I do not think so.” Q. “Will not Hight make change?” A. "2" Judge Ross, by means of ques- tions and citations of recorded cases, attempted to show that a dose of calomel might be, through ignor- ance of reaction, a dose of bichlor- ide. Dr. Everhart disagreed with hig citations. The witness then plunged into a chemical discussion of chemical reactions and methods of analyzing. Judge Ross attempted to attack Dr. Everhart’s testimony here from a scientific standpoint and emerged from the encounter with little glory. The point that poison had been found in the intestines Only was developed. Harris Examines Witness. General Harris then took charge of the witness. A long series of questions developed the fact that Dr. Everhart based his report of bi- chloride upon the fact that he found a soluble mercury salt. Gen- eral Harris then attempted to show that the galt might have been one of many. Everhart admitted this point but declared that the presence of hydrochloric acla indicated bi- chloride as the nature of the galt. General Harris.reverted to the stand that calomel may produce bi- chloride under salivation. The wit- ness stated that no one has ever demonstrated this fact, and. pro- ceeded to render a technical explan- ation of the abstracts of proof of the theory. Dr. Everhart admitted that very small quantities of mer- cury may be found in bodies after death as a result of mercury han- dled during life, General Harris asked the witness what he knew about the manufac- ture of “blind tiger’’ liquor. Dr. Everhart denied any personal knowledge from experience, produc- ing the first burst of laughter in the court. He further said that he had never found any potash in such liquor. Judge Ross interposed developing the fact that Dr. M. S. Brown, who employed Dr. Everhart. was in turn employed by Mrs. Alice Crandall, sister of Shepard. R,L. Berner, delved deep into the making of moon- shine liquor, attempting,to show that South Georgia moonshine is especially harmful. Solicitor Garrett brought out the fact that all mercuric salts have about tye same action upon the hu- man system, that the presumption based upon chemical knowledge was that the salt found in the Shepard viscera was mecuriec chloride, and that potash is not found in moon- shine whiskey. Just before the witness was re- leased all of the attorneys asked a ‘question or two showing that each knew a bit of chemistry which fit together rather badly. Dr. John Funke Is Called. Dr. John Funke, of Atlanta, was next put on the stand by the state as an expert pathologist. The ex- amination conducted by the state's attorney developed the following testimony: Dr. Funke said that he had heen present at the autopsy upon the body of Fred Shepard on November UW, when he secured the entire intestinal tract and esopha- gus preparatory to examination, . “What did you find upon ex- amination?’ A. “Marked changes in the duo- denum which was very much dis- eased, as was the Small intestine where the mucous membrane was greatly inflamed. The same con- dition was true of the larger in- testines. ‘In the dudenum, the mucous membrane was gone and in the large intestines the membrane was destroyed and dead, having died while the patient was living.” Whiskey Not Responsible. Acute inflamation characterized all of the organs. Dr. Funke stated that the heart and lungs were in excellent condition and that there was no indication that drink had produced death. Court recessed un- til 3 o'clock. Dr. Funke was reseated sin the witness chair after court opened again at 3 o'clock. “What produced changes na] tract?” “A powerful corrosive that have been produce dby bichlo- Any mercuric salt for the condtiion find this ; in intest! A could ride or mercury. would account which I found.” Q. “What did you esophagus?” A. “I found innumerable white Spots on the walis of esophagus which resulted from some corrosive or irritating substance. Mercuric salts could have produced this con- dition.” Q. “Could a bacterial disease pro- duce any of the changes in.any of the organs which you founé?’’ A. “None that I. know of,” Q. “What, in your opinicn. caused the death of thisindividual?” A. “The action.of gome powerful corrosive agent.” ‘ . “Conld peritonitis account fo the death?” A. “ I do not think sQ.”” Q. “If potash had been the agent. in the wonld the resnitant be alkaline or acid, as found?” A. “Tt would have been alkaline.” . “If | eorrosive agent caused death. how waes it administered?’ A. “Through the mouth.” The witness then outlined the usual course of mercuric poisonings. “How long after a dose of mer- curic salts would sym>toms become evident?” or A. “Depending upon sizeGet dose A. “More than one dose.” In answer to questions Dr. Funke disavgewed any belief that mercuric galts *found in Shepard’s viscera calomel. Dr. Funke was excused after two hours on the stand, Dr. N. S. Brown, of Fort Valley, who attended Shepard in his last liness and performed two autopsies, was the third witness for the prose- cution. Dr. Brown testified “that he had known the Shepard and Crandall families for twenty years and had been their personal physi- cian for a number of years, that he was called to attend Fred Shep- ard the night of May 30, the night before he died. Dr. Brown stated that he found Shepard in acute pain, violent vomiting spells, cramp- ed colic and condition of locked bowels. He said teat he advised removal to Macon - hospital, that Shepard was taken in a car accom- panied by Ernest Hopson and Dr. A. N. Orr, that he, Dr. Brown, went in a car with Fred Crandall. “after operation in Macon by Dr. Harrold, what was found.” * ‘“*Acute inflammation.” Q. “Is the theory of some corro- sive as the cause of Shepard’s death consistent with all that you saw?” | ie a ‘ -. “Is =*bichloride of mercury consistent?” a Tefis of Two Autopsies. Pr. Brown:then recounted the de- tails of the two autopsies perform- ed upon the Shepard body. Q. “Was Fred Crandall sober the night of May 30, when he carried you to Macon?” A. ioe” “Was he sober when you came out of the hospital?” A. “No; he was gloriously hap- Q. i 7 ; Q. “Did you attend Fred Cran- dall when he was very sick with dysentery and abdominal pain?” It was then claimed by the solice- itor that* Fred Cranfall’s symptoms were similar to mercurial poison- ing. Dr. Brown, under cross-exami- nation by Judge Ross, stated that Fred Shepard had been very fond of Ernest Hopson, “treating him as an indulgent father would a son.” In answer, Dr. Brown stated that he was paid by Mrs. Crandall to perform the autopsies. In, answer to questions asked by General Harris, Dr. Brown said that one-tenth grain of Dbichloride of mercury is the maximum dose. Dr. Brown was excused.

Fine for Croupy Babies. Pro- duces Rubefacient Effect Without Irritating, Breaks Up the Congested Blood Vessels and Will Not Stain the Clothing. ,Any physician will tell you that, in the treatment of colds, spasmodic croup, or any inflammation of the air passages, an externa] remedy that will-penetrate is very effective. Crude petrclatum has no penetrat- ing qualities, and that is why an animal fat base is used in the Gowan preparation and the reason why Gowan’s will and does actpal- ly penetrate, bringing almost im- mediate relief. Gowan’s, the original penetrating salve, gives relief beyond belief, it goes right in, soothes and heals the inflamed membranes, opens up the air passages for free and easy breathing and breaks up the cold. It will not stain the clothing, and being used externally, will not up- set the stomach. : Gowan’s is especially fine for babies and children, as it produces a rubefacient effect without irritat- ing or blistéring. It has many daily ' uses in the home and should be kept on-hand for emergencies, such as cuts, burns, bruises, insect bites, etc. 30c, 60c and $1.20 at your druggist, and guaranteed to please or, money refunded.—(adv.) is survived by: hold-ups Tuesday night, and on sév- eral occasions previous to that time, the robbers were said to be two negroes. One of the victims Wednesday might described one as being tall and black, wearing overalls and a hat, while the other, short and of a ginger cake color, was dressed in a dark suit and a dark cap. Police | are inclined to believe that this is the pair of negro bandits who have staged most of the holdups. H. lL. Solomon, of 7 Sells avenue, was held up by two unknown ne- groes near his home early Wednes- day night, and his pockets were searched. Eighty cents, all he had on his person at the time, was taken from him, Weavtr Is Held Up. David L. Weaver, 167 East Pine street, also was held up by two ne- groes at Pine and Ripley streets, This hold-up occurred some time after that of whieh Mr. Solomon was a victim. Weaver had no money on him at the time, but his pockets were searched. Cc. F. Baushell, 72 Evans street, was held up at Whitehall and Hood, by two negroes, who took his watch and $3 in cash. He reported the robbery to Motorcycle Policeman D. W. Ellis, who scoured the neigh- borhood in search of the negroes, one of whom Baushell described as tall and dark, and the other as short and of ginger cake color. The ne- groes were last seen running down Hood street together. ’ The Parfay Bottling company, 112 East Ellis street, was broken into at about 9:30 o’clock Wednesday night. The plate glass of the front door had been broken by the thief, who then reached in and lifted the latch. Officials of the place were sum- moned. The police reported that they were unable to ascertain what was missing. Hold Up Store. Late Wednesday night two ne- groes answering the _ description given by C. F. Baushell, of the men who held him up, entered the soft drink stand.of 8S. Masfafa, 374 De- catur street, with drawn pistols, and took about $33 from the cash reg- ister. Masfafa states that when he attempted to leave the store the ne- groes shot at him. Some activity was also reported on the part of automobile thieves.

Washington, December 15,—-An attempt to force consideration of the Mason resolution expressing the sympathy of congress with the Irish people failed today in the “house after Representative Flood, demo- crat, Virginia, had called the meas- ure from the house calendar and | demand its consideration. Representative Mann, republican, objected to consideration fairs committee had instructed its chairman, Representative Porter, of Pennsylvania, who was not on the floor at the time, to call up the resolution and that a minority mem- ber did not have that authority. Speaker Gillette upheld the objec- tion. Further consideration is not possible until the bill is reached on the calendar. . Mr. Mann charged that Represent- ative Flood'’s attempt to have the measure consbdered today was “ob- viously political.” The Virginia member failed when chairman of the foreign affairs committee, ‘he said, to have the resolution called up, but as soon as his party was out of power he attempted to com- pel action by the republicans. “Th gentlemn is mistaken,” Mr. Flood replied heatedly. “70 6s dreaming. He knows that I present- the bill and demanded a Vote it when I was chairman.” Ginnell Faces Commission. The system of government which Irish republican leaders propose to set up in Ireland was described as an ideal co-operative commonwealth,” by Laurence Ginnell, former Irish member of the British parlia- ment, in testimony today before the commission of the committe of one hundred investigating the Irish question. Mr. Ginnell, who declined to ap- pear before the commission until he on » 000. families, estructions flour mills and other industry de- pendent on agriculture are idle, she said, adding that no employment for the people had taken their place as the cattle were exported on the hoof. Living conditions, Miss Russell said, are worse in Dublin than in any other city, with almost 40 per cent of the city’s population, or 25,- living in one-room dwellings. The commission will continue its hearings tomorrow with Pedrias Colum, Irish writer and poet, and Paul Furnas, an American Quaker, who was in Ireland in connection with the Society of Friends inves- tigation of Irish conditions, listed to appear. Protest British Refusal. Ten members of the senate, in a ' joint letter today, urged the state | , department to protest to the British government against the recent re- fusal of the British embassy here to vise passports for members of the committee appointed to make a first-hand investigation of condi- tions in Ireland by the commission of the committee of one hundred in- vestigating the Irish question. action of the British ambassador, the letter said, is an “instance of the kind of governmental suppression of truth and free speech that may re- sult in serious danger to the friend- | ly relations of Great Britain and the United States.” The letter, addressed to Secretary Colby, was signed by Senators Nor- ris, Nebraska; Walsh, Massachu- setts: Walsh, Montana; France, Maryland; La Follette, Wisconsin; Ransdall, Louisiana; Gronna, North Dakota: Chamberlain, Oregon; Fletcher, Florida, and Shields, of Tennessee. In addition to urging a portest to the British government, the letter also asked Secretary Col- by to request that government to “explain publicly why it refuses the | right of travel in the British isles to representative American citizens seeking to ascertain the truth as to | permitted to | a situation, which if continue, may seriously affect the friendly relations of the American and English peoples.” REPORTED DE VALERA TO RETURN TO ENGLAND. New York, December 15.—Eamon DeValera, “president of the Irish re- public,” who is reported by The Lon- don Evening Standard to be on his way to England, gave up his room in the Waldorf-Astoria hotel two or three days ago, hotel officials say, but they could give no information as to his present whereabouts.

HARDWICK PROPOSES; FARM BROKERAGE PLAN Governor-Elect to Establish Central Bureau to Assist Farmers Sell Products. Athens, Ga., December 15.—(Spe- | cial.)—Declaring that one of the | first acts of his administration will | be the formation of a farm broker- | age system in co-operation with | | the state bureau of markets, Gover- ' nor-elect Thomas W. Hardwick to- day outlined plans for farm help | to a large number of farm demon- | stration agents assembled here. Mr. Harc¢wick’s plan, as out tlined | by him, will have for its object the | creation of cash markets for every commodity raised by Georgia farm- ers and will place them in position to rely on other crops than cot- ton for their subsistence. A central office would be es- would be kept at all times-on cur- rent prices for farm products and in each county of the state would be stationed a county agent whose business it would be to Keep in touch with all crops raised in his district and also the highest mar- ket price for each article. He would be in constant touch by tele- | graph and telephone with the cen- | tral office and would assist in sales for the farmers. That the plan would ential an enormous outlay of funds was ad- mitted by Mr. Hardwick, but he stated that if the framers ‘of the state Were receiving the proper prices for their articles then the question of money would not enter into the matter. Considerable praise was sounded by Mr. Hardwick for the present state bureau of markets under the direction of Lem. B. Jackson, but that its scope is at present‘too lim- ited was the burden of his speech. The plan will be.absolutely non- political in nature, the speaker stated, and the men selected for the various positions would be ac- cepted on point of ability alone.

Glenn Photo Stock Company The Large Kodak Store 117 Peachtree : "IN REPLY TO Public and Print Whereas, There exists The International Joint Conference . Council, composed of the organized sections of the commercial and neriodical branch of the printing industry, with representa- tives of the closed shop oe a of the United Typothetae of America, the Printers’ League of America, and the Interna- tional Association of Employing Electrotypers for the Em- ployers’ Group and representatives of four organizations of labor in the printing industry, namely: The International Ty- pegraphical Union, the International Printing Pressmen and Assistants Union, the International Stereotvpers and Electro- typers Union, and the International Brotherhood of Bookbind- ers; and Whereas, This Joint Conference Council at a meeting held in Chicago, April 21, 1919, adopted as a method of peaceful settlement, through conciliation and arbitration of industrial disputes, the following .preamble to its Constitution: “Only through joint conference in the spirit of mutual helpfulness between em- ployes and employers can the foundation be laid for stable and prosperous condi- tions within the printing industry. To promote the spirit of co-operation and to deal with the problems of industry in a way to insure the protection of the interests of all coricerned, the establishment of an International Joint Conference Council, made up of representatives of employers and employes, which shall be thoroughly inforased as to conditions and interests of all parties in the industry and in a position to sugt gest for ratification; regulations which shall eventually become the law of the in- dustry, is considered essential. “Compulsory arbitration by law is deemed impractical as a means of adjusting controversies between employers and employes. Controversies bet ween em- ployers and employes can_and should be adjusted through voluntary agreéments to refer disputes to boards’ of conciliation and arbitration composed of represen- tatives of employers and employes i in the industry affected. It is in this spirit‘of arbitration and conciliation that the organization and operation of a Joint Interna- . ne Conference Council for the Printing Industry and Allied Trades is under- taken. Whereas, The Joint Conference Council at the same meet- ing in Chicago, April 21, 1919, passed a resolution recom- mending for the approval of its constituent bodies the intro- duction\of the forty-four hour week on May 1, 1921; and Whereas, this resolution was ratified and adopted by all of the constituent bodies members of the Joint Conference Council; therefore be it Resolved, That it is the sense of the Joint Conference Council at its meeting held in Atlanta, Georgia, upon the in- vitation of a group of Atlanta employing printers, Decem- ber 13 and 14, 1920, that all members of the constituent bodies of the Council are morally obligated to use every con- stitutional process through conciliation and arbitration for peaceful settlement of industrial disputes and the Council condemns any action in the handling of industrial disputes in violation of these general prin :iples; and be it further Resolved, That this Joint Conference Council considers that all members of its constituent bodies are morally bound to adopt and put into effect the forty-four-hour week on May I, 1921. AN UNTIMELY ADVERTISEMENT. Whereas, There appeared in The Atlanta Constitution, a daily per, of December 14, 1920, an advertisement headed “The Public a - Printing,” which stated in its first paragraph that “The heads of the sev- eral Unions allied to the printing industry are in Atlanta, ostensibly for the purpose of maugurating in this section a 44-hour werk week, instead - of the present 48-hour week;” and Whereas, At the time this advertisement appeared there was being held in Atlanta, at the expressed invitation of a group of the employing printers of this city, a meeting of the International Joint Conference Council composed of representatives of both employers and employes connected with the following organizations: The United Typothetae of America, The Printers’ League of America and The International Asso- ciation of Employing Electrotypers for the Employers’ Group and repre- sentatives of four organizations of labor in the printing industry, namely: The International Typographical Union, The International Printing Press- men and Assistants Union, The International Sterotypers and Electro- typers Union, and the International Brotherhood of Bookbinders; therefore be it Resolved, That this Joint Conference Council deplores the fact that ‘an advertisement of this character was published at a time when a meeting was being held in the city, which meeting was composed of employers as well as employes who are connected with the organized section of the Commercial and Periodical branches of the Printing Industry, both of ‘whom are vitally interested:in the success of that industry. Above resolutions adented and published by authority of the INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE COUNCIL.

With Ashcraft as Presi For Chamber of Commerce A progressive afiministration, up- holding the standards for civic ad- vancement set in former years, is confidently expected by Atlanta for the chamber of commerce, under the leadership of Lee Ashcraft, new head of the body, who succeeds Eu- gene R. Black ip.the responsible position. Mr. Ashcraft has, long been affit- lated _with -all movVements in At- lanta and the enftfe south which had for their objects the advance- ment of meritorious interests of the section, and has particularly «won for himself a‘ place in the esteem of all Atlantans by, his tireless an devoted work in the interest of pa- triotic and relief work during the war. He is vice president of the Ash- eraft-Wilkinson company, the prominent fertilizer firm, and it is lanta has for the pase few years led the entire souch in Red Cross activity. Mr. Ashcraft t: president of the Atlanta chapter of that or- ganization and has taken an avtive part in the work done through At- lanta as a center of activity in the southern division. Officers Selected. Another significant fact in the dent Great Progress Is Predicted largely through his efforts that At<7 }election held by the chamber for the year 1921 is that its staff 0° of- ficers is composed of Atlanta’s youngest leaders, men who have by their activity gained the confidence of the citizens and who have oeen forermost in all work for the rity’s advancement. The other officers chosen were: Vice presidents, Robert B. Trout- man, ‘ Rambo and G. Arthur Howell; treasurer, Henry W. Davis. Great interest is being manifest- ef in the undertakings which the chamber members, through the fo- rum and referendum plans, have planned for the immediate future. The weekly forum tuncheons have giv‘n the individual members of the body a new chance to express themselves on topics which vitally Coneern the polic’ cf the organiza: ‘toa and many attractive and ic- structive features hatec been ~pre- sented to the membership through this medium.

Another Big Feature. The community service depart- ment of the chamber of commerce is another feature which is ex- pected to prosper under Mr. Ash- craft's administration. The com- munity service plans of the cham- ber do not include a set program to be offercd the various neighbor- hoods of Atlanta, but is so planned as to allow the communities to choose and plan their own diver- sion, recration or educational fea- tures. President Black, retiring after a year of much accomplishment, re2- cently .appointed Charles T.

The committee which willserve with Mr. Nunnally will be chosen from the membership of the chamber and will report the plans for the dinner at an early date. At the annual meeting tha new officers and directors will be installed. WEATHER DAMAGED GOTTON IS REJECTED Commercial Exchange Asks Banks All Over State to Warn Growers. — In an effort to avoid heavy loss to cotton dealers through weather- damaged cotton. the Atlanta Com- mercial exchange mailed Wednes- day a circular to all banks of the state, both national and state banks, asking the personal attention of the bankers to the matter. Farmers oftentimes leave bales of cotton out in the weather for long periods, and later the cotton is found to be damaged considerably. The letter was signed by J. Hope Tigner, secretary and superintendent of the exchange, arf sent at the di- rection of F. M. Inman, the presi- dent. P Mr. Tigner said the annual crop loss through weather-damaged cot- ton was hundreds of thousands of dollars, perhaps as much as $1,000,000. The letter follows: Serious Situation. “eW. wish to call yvour attention to the very serious situation con- fronting you and the cotton inter: of the state in regard to weather- damaged cotton. “All the cotton merchants of At- lanta have notified their road men not to receive any weather-damageid cotton, as it is impossible to esti- mate the weather damage until the bale reaches its final destination at the mill, where the total damage claimed by the mill are hilled back to the cotton merchant making the shipment, who must suffer the loss. “Weather damage can easily be avoided by the farmer placing his cotton under a dry shelter up off the wet ground, or more cafel- pro- tecting it from weather, fire and robbery by placing every bale in a warehouse. Many Bales Damaged. “There are thousands of bales ot cotton lying out in the winter weather today flat on the ground, absolutely unprotected. while the careless owner promises every day to moveit under shelter, until weeks and months pass, then the damage has been done and he will very probably find no market for his cot- ton at all, as the cotton merchants are declining to handle any cotton showing weather damage. “The officials of the banks of the state are requested to make a per- sonal canvass of their customers im- mediately and urge them to house and protect their cotton, thereby saving them further loss on their crop. “The cotton merchants and the supply merchants’ will appreciate your personal interest in the mat- tor.” GEORGIA BAPTIST S. S. CONVENTION MEETS IN APRIL Announcement was made last night by George W. Andrews and James W. Merritt, secretaries of the Georgia Baptist Sunday school work, that a state Baptist Sunday school convention will be beld in Atlanta April 5-7, of next year. This announcement will be ead with interest throughout the state. There has been a demand for this state convention for some time and with the majority of ths district as- sociations organized for a Baptist Sunday school work the state meet- ing promises to be one of the great- est religious gatherings ever held in the state. There are more than two thou- sand white Baptist Sunday schools in Georgia. The officials hope to have more than one thousand su- perintendents of these schools in Atlanta here for the meeting in April. A program is now being planned which will bring to Geor- gia some of the leading Sunday school workers of the world. The sessions of the convention will be held at the Tabernacle. The Baptists of Atlanta are arranging for the details of the meeting. Am- ple provision will be made for the big convention. Announcements will be made later regarding the speakers and the subjects. Dr. W. S. Young Urged To Accept Pastorate -Of Knoxville Church The appointment of Rev. W. S. Young, of the theological college of Emory university, to the pas- torate of Church Street Methodist church in Knoxville, Tnnn., is "et urged by members of that congre- gation, it was learned in Atlanta Wednesday.

[Underwood Makes Appeal To Save Starving Babies In the columns of hundreds of newspapers throughout the south there will appear within the next few days an appeal to southern people not to forget, in their Christ- mas joy, the condition of 3,500,000 children who are dying of starva- tion in centra] Europe. A movement to give them food in their crisis until the next harvest is reaped has been started throughout the nation by leading relief organ- izations under the leadership of Herbert Hoover. In Georgia, prominent men and women representing these relief agencies are planning to organize the state by asking a leading citi- zen in each county to take the re- sponsibility for the “S. O. S. cam- paign,” and present the facts to their people. Marwin Underwood, chairman of the Georgia campaign and former general counsel for the United States railroad administration, Wed- nesday made the following state- ment: “Babies and children are dying in eastern and central Europe like flies. They are dying from malnu- trition—in other words, want of food. Yet only ten dollars apiece, it is estimated, will save them. “These facts are thoroughly established by such authoritative agencies as the Red Cross, which has representatives there. “Ammerica has been asked to give $33,000,000 to buy enough food to feed them until the next harvest. Georgia has been asked to do its part. Individual Georgians are now asked to do their part. “What is your part? The answer to that question, I am sure, will be dictated only by your means.

GAIN ALSO SHOWN BY THE JAPANESE Department Reports the Busiest Year in History With Reference to Ar-| rest and Deportation of Alien Undesirables. Washington, December 15.—Immi- gration from Canada during the last , fiscal year broke all records, and _ there was a tremendous increase in 'immigration from Mexico as well 'as from the European countries, commissioner Anthony Caminetti, general of immigration, gays in his annual report, made pubRe today. Aliens from Canada admitted to the country, the report says, num- bered 90,025, while aliens departing numbered 7,666, leaving an excess of 82,357. In addition 19.336 aliens in Canada who applied for admis- sion were debarred, while 5,328 were refused examination, the report Says, because of inability or un- willingness to meet the head tax requirement. Admission of aliens from Mexico totaled 52,361, while the number of aliens going to Mexico from the United States numbered 6,606, leav- “ wr id ore previous fiscal year the admission® of immigrant aliens from Mexico numbered 29,818. Europe sent a total of 246,295 im- | migrant aliens to the United States 'in the past fiscal year, while 256,- 433 emigrant aliens left the United States for Europe, causing a de- crease in alien population of 10,- 138. Immigrant aliens admitted from Asia numbered 17,505 and emi- grant aliens departing for Asia numbered 9,441, leaving an excess of 8,844. Many Deportations. Resumption of immigration on a large-scale and efforts to de- port alien anarchists made the last fiscal year the busiest of any since the inauguration of the immigra- tion service, the report says, “with indications that pre-war. immigra- tion figures would be outdistanced unless affected by laws of this or other countries.” “Chinese immigration,” the report continues, “shows an increase over the preceding year, the number of admissions having risen from 3,840 coming for permanent residence in 1919 to 4,690 in 1920, these fig- ures not including aliens of the Chinese race granted transient priv- ilege. Of the citizen class of Chi- nes. persons ‘1ere were admitted in all, 1,881, of whom 897 were of native birth, 843 were born abroad of native born parents and 141 were foreign-born wives of American cit- izens. of the Chinese race. “Im.nigration from Japan 40 the ‘ontinent of the United States ‘shows an increase of 13 per cent over the preceding fiscal year, while ‘that to Hawaii shows a decrease of 6 per cet, the admissions in fig- ‘ures being 12,868 to the mainland and 3,306 to&Hawall as against I11,- (404 -d 3,500, respectively, In 1919. “As stated in/the last annual re- r t, the practice then obtainifig as to the admission of proxy brides as alleged brides of Japanese in this country . ; rot satisfactory to the depart-: and the result was a new rule which promised a solu- tion of the question. Contrary to this expectation the number of ar- rivals of such wives increased from 13,199 in 1919 to 3,816 in 1920. This | | tendency caused continued study of the object. Finally Japan fixed by _lecree, the 29th of F ry of this year, the last day upon which pass- ports would be issued to so-called proxy brides and as the holders of such documents had six months in which to apply for entry, Septem- ber 1, 12°* saw the end of this sys- tem.

Mr. Camiu.etti says that while these events were in progress the communist and communist labor party vecame active and in the ne’ h crhood of 5,000 Warrants for arrests were issued. Approximately ‘,000 of these warrants were served and 556 of those arrested were or- dered deported. Detailir~ immigration for the year, Mr. Caminetti presents statis- ties to show that the proportion of females among immigrant aliens as ay ea was 42.4 per cent of the total in 1320 as comgared with 33.5 per cent in the four years before th: war. He says this increase is especially noted In the case of Eu- ropean peoples among whom the proportion of females was consist- ently low prior to the worJd war. The commissioner general adds, howe.or, that “this fact has little or no real significance under the circumstances unless possibly the very large increases among the Greeks and Italians give a hint that the immigration of the.e peoples in the future may be somewhat more permanent than in the past.” Says Hubby Pawned Her Ring for Money For Other Women Declaring that her husband, F.

Baker recently brought suit for divorce from Mrs. Baker, charging cruel treatment. She asked the court to deny his petition and grant her a divorce instead. She asserted that his plea for a divorce was merely a move to get rid of her and her two children. She asked also for permanent alimony. His charges were denied.

Every right-thinking citizen will “agree with the statement made by Jesse E. Mercer, prominent Geor- gian, in a communication which we present in another column of ‘this page, that “man-killing in- ‘struments, peculiasly constructed ,for the use of cowards, should be- ‘come unpopular in Georgia,” his reference being particularly, of course, to the deadly hip-pocket ‘pistol. In a democracy there is only one means of eradicating a _ public. ‘menace of this kind, and that is by a process of law—first, by out- 'tlawing it, then by rigid enforce- '' ment of the law. Mr. Mercer cites the opinion of “some lawyers” to the effect that before Georgia, for instance, can legally inhibit pistol “totin’’’ the federal constitution will have to be amended, but he argues convinc- provision guaranteeing “the right and béar pan the people to k a?ms” was pyoetiulgated in the ‘very early hiStory of our republic “to meet a condition that existed “at that time,” and designed solely to suppress internal disorder and to legalize resistance against in- vasion. The constitutionality of the law regulating pistol “totin’” is sub- stantiated by the fact that prac- “tically every state in the union has such law, tested and sustained by the courts. Georgia has on its statute books a law which, inadequate as it is, would undoubtedly serve greatly 'to diminish our appalling annual list of pistol casualties and make | pistol-carrying decidedly “unpop- ular in Georgia,” where, as Mr. Mercer suggests and as our mor- tality records show, human life is rated altogether too low in value. What makes our existing anti- concealed weapon law practically worthless as a safeguard against murder and murderous assault is } the fact that it is not properly en- ‘ forced. In England the law forbids th ‘carrying of any pistol, or other type of firearms, having a barrel less than 14 inches long—except, of course, by peace officers and by citizens who apply for and re- ceive special permission to carry pistols concealed upon their per- ; sons. And in England law is law, and is respected and obeyed. The re- sult.is attested by the exception- ally low homicide rate in England. What Georgia needs to improve its disgraceful record in this re- spect is more law to regulate the carrying of weapons of human de- struction and more “teeth” put into our existing law; and then, most important of all, rigid, un- relenting enforcement! SPALDING’S GOOD WORK. With two big paving contracts just completed, involving’ twenty- nine miles of rural highways and ninety blocks in the city of Grif- fin, and with two other major jobs of a similar character still under way, Spalding county is setting an example in highway development that ought to be taken as a pat- ‘tern by every county in Georgia. The work that has just been fin- ished, after having been in prog- ress for more than a year, con- sists in nine miles of country road and ninety city blocks paved with I brick. and twenty miles of the Dixie highway and other state roads within the county paved . _— concrete according to the - _ general plans and specifications provided by the state highway de- partment fit into the comprehen- sive scheme of state-wide highway development. But with the completion of this splendid work, Spalding county has not stopped; for two other six and one-half miles of concrete and asphalt paved highway—are under way, and will run “well into 1921,” according to The Constitu- tion’s Griffin correspondent. This activity manifests a com- mendable spirit of progress and enterprise upon the part of Spald- ing county; and every man, wom- an and child in the county will be a direct beneficiary of it. Not only does it provide much- needed rural transportation facili- ties, but it affords labor and a means of livelihood for men who otherwise, perhaps, would be idle during the temporary period of in- dustrial depression incident to the readjustment process that is under way in all parts of the country. If there ever was a time when public improvements should be pushed to the maximum and every possible effort exerted by public authorities to keep labor busy doing something permanently use- ful, right now is such a time, while private industries are passing through a trying process of read- justment of their operating plans. A WORTHY SELECTION. . In selecting a leader to have su- pervision over its affairs during the forthcoming year the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce could not have done better than it did in designating Mr. Lee Ashcraft to fill that responsible position. Nor could it have found a man in Atlanta who is more worthy the honor that goes with it. Mr. Ashcraft, a southern gentle- man, long been a resident of Atlanta and one of the city’s lead- ing men of affairs. As a citizen he has always been alert to serve the community in any capacity in which his untiring energy, his resourcefulness and exceptional ability could be made to accrue to the benefit of Atlanta and humanity. , craft contributed more in time and energy to the public welfare, per- haps, than any other resident of this section outside the paid serv- ice of the country. He helped or- ganize the local chapter of the American Red Cross society, and, the activities of that splendid or- ganization throughout the war and until only a short time ago. upon a foundation, tegrity, Progressiveness and Faith in Mankind. He is an example of the modern, wide-awake, honest type of business man that has made Atlanta what it is. Mr. Ashcraft is a worthy suc- cessor to the retiring president of the chamber of commerce, is fortunate, indeed, ine procuring his services in that capacity. Harding is “veering” toward the league of nations, says a political commentator, who adds that the bitter-ender republicans don’t like it and are threatening to split the party. With the president-elect it is probably a question simply of which wing he can best afford to alienate: The “hell-benter” or the pro-league wing of the G. O. P., both of which combined to elect him, and to each of which he is under obligations for many thou- sands of votes cast under an un- certainty as to his real convic- tions. Reports of the horrible condi- tions under which little children of Europe are starving by the thousands as a result of the war, and simultaneous reports of tre- mendous amounts of money being sent to the cause of it all—the former kaiser—are conducive to mixed emotions in the breast of the average patriot to whom wor- thy appeals for food-finance are being made. The consolation of it to The Savannah News is that “even with a blind tiger here and there at large, Americans may thank their stars and the democratic ad- ministration that there is not a lot of wildcat money in circula- tion.” Once a five-cent cigar can again be bought for less than eight cents the average man on the street may begin to take stock in the talk about prices being back to pre- war “normalcy.” : | Money invested in one of The Constitution’s ten Christmas o, portunities is equivalent to taking out a year-round happiness insur- ance policy. The holiday spirit that is not in the jug is the kind with the thrill of world-happiness in it. It’s the season for cutting out production of trouble. contracts—calling for a total of.

UNDERNEATH. Great truth is very deeply laid. It is falsity that fastens its fangs upon the surface of things. That is one reason why most péo- ple are more prone to find fault and criticize than to praise. A man’s faults are usually carried around on his sleeve, whereas his virtues are stored in his heart. Underneath the earth — where much toll and digging is necessary to find them—are the precious met- alg and stones so significant of the art of the great Creator. The strength of the mighty oak is imbedded in all directions deeply in ths ground. The best and finest In any man or woman is rarely expressed. But it gwerminates day and night. The crosS and unkind word doesn’t hurt the air any—but when ft sinks into somebody's heart, it starts its hurt. Be tolerant. Give people credit for what you can’t see in them on the surface. Deep water moves quietly with a sort of animate understand- ing. All people, also, are much bet- ter and greater than they appear. Underneath, folks are rea]. Under- neath, they are men and women with stripped intentions that are clean and right. _ So try to give credit where credit is due. What the Stars Predict. | The morning hours of this day are lucky. Business enterprises undertaken today should prosper, particularly those concerned with buying, sell- ing and trading. It is predicted that Spain will suffer from religious and political disturbances. P Women should be most discreet in their dealings with men. In ob- taining poHtical offices they will not be as successful as they have hoped. Persons whose birthday this Is, should avold any great changes in the coming year.

Union workmen claim that the piece-work sched- ule amounts to a “lockout.” | - Bits of New York Life BY O. O. McINTYRE ) -. New York, ‘December 15.—There is a movie actress who lives in a square of tumble down houses out of the current of traffic downtown. She has an apartment that she has fixed up to suit her bizarre taste. It is the nocturnal rendezvous for a rather gay set that drifts in after the theater. There is the constant rattle of poker chips, the clink of glasses and clouds of cigarette smoke. The apartment is filled to suffocation with bric-a-brac, antiques and use- less junk. Carved ivory elephants and imitation scorpions hang from chandeliers. The walls are paneled with Russian batik and Hindoo draperies. Stuffed snake skins are entwined about mirrors and there was a lIit- tle white fuzzy dog that refused to come out from under a window seat and ‘one could not blame it. Books are piled about in endless profu- sion—poems by, Cervice, vellum edi- tions of old masters and the later effusions of Marie Corelli Harold Bell Wright. There is a Jap servant in a gold and silver kimona who salaams and shuffles about in sandals. There is a muffled beat of gongs and the odor of incense. The hostess her- self wore silk canary-colored pa- jamas and a flaming red. turban. The talk is of late breakfast, new jazz palaces and the latest scandal of the studios. The gathering there when a friend ushered me into the place in- cluded an actor whose fame lies in his marriage to the most celebrated of the Florodora girls, a vivacious and expensive feathers—and who boast- ed that life was hard. She had just paid $35 for a pair of stockings. There was an editor of a sex story magazine, three young ladies of the merry-merry, a female in- blonde whose frock was trimmed “ personator, a young man ‘in his early twenties who wore a toupe and known familiarly as “Jimmie.” Nobody expected to go until break- fast was served at 9 o'clock. The hostess apparently got great satis- faction out of the deference paid her. “I love my friends,” she said, “and I always keep open house.” “There is no one in the world like her.” confided “Jimmie,” who was on his third sandwich and had filled his cigarette case from the supply on the table. He laso had an elegant Scottish breath. Commodore E. C. Benedict, who died at the age of 84 a few weeks ago, was one of the most enthusi- astic yachtsmen in New York and even in his later years was a great wit. He attended a meeting last summer to help name the _- yacht chub at New Rochelle. “I'd call it ‘The New Rochelle Salts,’” was hfs suggestion. The Wall street broker is riding to work these days in the subway. His car is in pawn. Lean days loom ahead. In most of the brokerage shops business has fallen off 75 per cent and the majority are running at a heavy loss. The high-priced cafes are also feeling the loss of the broker trade, for when the broker has money he spends it. Their eat- ing patronage has been transferred to the dairy lunches. Tin Pan Alley’s success depends upon song boosting. If a firm can si. terest such artists as Al Jolson, John Steele or Eddie Cantor in sing- ipgtheir tunes their fortune is ade.

Such writings are harmful ame wetrue .°-.. Not guilty, if I may so flatter my- self. In fact, I know of no alleged health authority or actual health authority anywhere who continually or occasionally writes about any such thing. This bulletin article is unsigned, but presumably at least approved by the health commis- sioner of the city where it is print- It is, I think, the first instance of a real health authority even im- Plying that there may be any such increasing mortality. Several health authorities do frequentlv write and talk about the increasing death rate among people of middle age, chiefly from the type of diseases mentioned, but also fram cancer, I am one such alleged health author- ity— allege myself a health au- thority. I can cite no other proof that there is an increasing mortality among people of forty to fifty years of age jn the United States than the evidence furnished by the mor- tality statistics of the United States census bureau. If those statistics show anything at all they show precisely such increasing mortality and in spite of a steadily decreas- ing mortality for persons of all other ages, even advanced ace. In the same health department bulletin appears this striking “Healthorgram” (no health board bulletin is complete nowadays with- out some of these gnanpy things): Ventilate your homes and bodies. as welt as your opinions. Well, how can one ventilate one’s body without taking exercise? Is the ventilation to be confined to the face and the hands or to the sur- face? Or should we ventilate the bodv inside as well as outside? The “alleced health authorities” scarcely offer exercise and less food as remedies for the disenses the bulletin item mentions. Thev would he poor remedies for such disesses, Rather the alleged authorities suggest more exercise and less foo 2s preventive measures against snch diseases, And that they certainly are. Fat, overfed, underexercised, to- baceo saturated, dopy, well heeled men, traveling fast toward a pre- mature grave, are fond of declaring that all this exercise bunk does a man no good, Exercise properly employed in- ereases metabolism. Improves the wind, strengthens the heart, lowers blood pressure, increases the ah- sorption of oxygen in the body and the destruction and elfmination of waste matters and retained nolsons, improves circulation, aids digestion —well, that’s enough. Does anybody offer a hetter preventive measure against the “degenerative diseases” mentioned in the item I have quoted? QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, Excessive Sweating of the Palms. Can you recommend any applica- tion which will prevent gxcessive sweating of the palms of the hands? It is not from nervousness or em- barrassment. It seems to be a con- stant condition with me (J. R. B.) ? ANSWER—Rub into the palms for a few minutes each evening for a week a little of this ofntment: Solution of formaldehyde (U. S. P.) one-half dram; menthol, two grains; lanolin, one-half ounce; pe- trolatum, enough to make one ounce. This should be dispensed in a col- lapsible tube and labelled formalde- hyde ointment. Buffalo Climate for Rheumatism. Please tell me whether the cli- mate of Buffalo, N. Y., or the cli- mate of Providence, R. IL, is good ‘for a chronic articular rheumatism. ANSWER—So far as my knowl- edge of joint disease goes, climate has no influence. Horse Sense. I enjoy your health talks. You mix so much horse sense in your writing. I am 84 years old and practiced medicine from 1863 to 1913. For corns and calluses ap- plv once daily a solution of thirty grains of salicylic acid in half an ounce of flexible collodion, forabou ten days—and what then? (H. W. us a ANSWER—Then quit wearing the kind of shoes that cause corns and calluses. Urie Acid Phobia. I am told that eating sugar and sweets makes uric acid in the sys- tem, in other words, sugar in the urine. (H. S. B.) ANSWER — Somebody spoofing you. Uric acid is normally produced in the body; even when in excess, we have no evidence that it causes disease. It has nothing to do with sugar.

PROMISE GOOD SERVICE FOR CHRISTMAS MAIL The annual holiday rush of ma!) at the Atlanta postoffice will be handled with the same speed and accuracy that mail receives in nor- mal times, according to Postmaster George C. Rogers. who announc | yesterday that an extra force of approximately 300 men and women would be on duty in the various postoffice departments from today until two or three days after Chris’. mas. Christmas packages are al- ready flooding the postoffice. Ac- cording to present plans, however,, a serious congestion of mail is not at al] probable. Editor Constitution: I note that Judge Hutcheson, one of the best men on the superior court bench, appeals to the grand jury, and through them to the public for the protection of society against the deadly pocket pistol. Turning to another paper I find an account of the burial at sea, three miles from shore cartloads of pistols and other deadly weapons, peculiarly designed for taking human life when the vic- tim least expects harm, that had been taken from criminals arrested in New York city. All of which reminds me of your long continued efforts to create a public sentiment in Georgia that will give us more strict laws on the. subject and better enforcement of the laws now on our statute books. Some lawyers tell us that the federal constitution must be amend- ed before we have legislation against the manufacture, sale, transportation and possession of pistols and other deadly weapons that may be conveniently carried concealed about the person. ; Some of these lawyers, I find, do not know that the provision of the constitution they refer to is itself an amendment to the constitution, but insist that it is an old funda- menta] of the English law on which we builded. The law, second amendment to the federal constitution, reads: ‘‘A well regulated militia being neces- sary to the security of ae free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” That the law was written and adopted to meet a condition that existed at that time, organized preparation for resisting invasion or for suppressing internal disor- der, is obvious. The necessity has long passed, Admitting the lawyer’s construc- tion, arms for the protection of the home and of the cowardly corpus of the men who now carry pistols, a gun or other weapon that could not be conveniently concealed about the person would meet all require- ments. A shotgun by the head of the bed of the man of the house is the best protection of the iso- lated home. If the language of the consti- tution is stretched to protect the manufacture and possession of pis- tols it has already been “infringed” by the Georgia laws restricting, “in- fringing” the carrying, “bearing.” The laws of this state infringe the right to sell. It is probably true that every state in the union “in- fringes” the right to bear arms if we are to accept the construction of the language of the constitution insisted on by these lawyers. Within the last month I Hsted from the docket in a Georgia coun- ty four untried murder cases, sev- en cases having been disposed of this year, a large number of the thirty-one cases resulting from the pistol toting habit—a durnfool hab- it common to cowards. Some lawyer at some time has told some court that every crim- ina] statute in the Georgia code is unconstitutional. Why not try out an act of forbidding the manu- facture and possession of a pistol or other deadly weapon, capable of being carried concealed about the person? Man-killing instruments, pecu- liarly constructed for the use of cowards, should become unpopular in Georgia, where human life is rated among the cheapest commodi- ties. JESSE E. MERCER. Asheville, N. C., December 9, 1920. FOR LOWER RENTS PREACHER TO MAKE PLEA NEXT SUNDAY | Rev. John W. Ham, pastor of the | Baptist Tabernacle, on Sunday night |Will speak to«the landlords of the |city, making an earnest appeal to , them to scrap their leases executed /during the flush times and make new lease& ovasea upon existing ,conditions. He will endeavor to ‘show that such a voluntary action on the part of property owners will prevent suffering that is bound to ensue if rents remain at their present levels. “It is my intention,” he said, “to appeal to property owners to apply the golden rules to that large body of worthy citizens who have to rent their homes. The period of depression and readjustment neces- sarily involves a gré@at deal of suf- fering, and leases made last sum- ‘mer and expiring next fall.cover this period. It behooves every man actuated by high principles, fair- ness and justness to fal] in line with wholesalers, retailers and manufac- turers who are cutting prices. This must be voluntary on their part. To adopt this policy will mean the com- ‘ing of Christmas cheer in the homes i that otherwise are going to be dark, ‘and further, it will have the ap- |proval of the _ enlightened con- sciousness of the community. It is my purpose to discuss various phases ofthis acute situation next Sunday night.” 2479 AMERICAN WAR DEAD RETURN ON SINGLE SHIP New York, Decembe = r15.—The j;largest shipment of American war dead to be returned on one ship— 2.479 bodies—arrived here today on ‘the army transport Wheaton from | Bordeaux and St. Nazaire.

Mr. Denman British mission United States in April, 1917, ana which was headed by Arthur J. Bal- four, then British secrtary of state for foreign affairs, had undertaken to influence the shipping board, and had succeeded in getting one of its members elected to an administra- tive board which Mr. Denman said he had attempted to organize in Newy York to function with the shipping board. The member of the British mis- sion elected to this advisory board, he said, was Sir Connop Guthrie. Mr. Denman told the committee that he did not know how Sir-Con- nop was elected—that it happened between noon and 3:30 o’clock one afternoon—but that he had learned that three or four members of the British mission were present. “Afterwards the shipping board had a warm session,” he continued. “It lasted twenty minutes, and all that had been transacted at the previous session was wiped out.” The witness intimated his in- sistence that the board be Kept free from British influence had more to do with his resignation as chairman “that anything else,” and he testified that while he wanted British co-operation, he did not want Great Britain to influence tne board. Mr. Denman said he had frequent conferences with Mr. Balfour and “that certain phases of the confer- ences approached the realm of se- eret treaties.’ He indicated his wil- lingness to disclose the natur%e of the negotiaations if President Wil- son would consent, MORGANTHAU 10 AUT FOR U. 5.

Revell, of 28 Ripley street, reported to the ploice Wednesday that he was robbed of his watch and $100 cash by two negro rob- bers Tuesday night. The hold-up occurred near his home, he said. BY MARION KENDIRCK, Woe be unto the justice of peace who issues a warrant to be ex- ecuted upon any person in Atlanta, for whoever becomes guilty of such action may be in contempt of the municipal court. So ruled tne court of appeals Wednesday in the case of Hicks vs. Pursley. In making this ruling, the de- cision of the court characterized the law creating the municipal court of Atlanta as “harsh,” and declared that the fact that a justice of peace Warrant was served on an individ- ual within this city is not suffi- cient evidence to convict the offi- cial of contempt. It must be shown, ruled the court, that at the time such a Warrant was issued, the jus- which came to the] ‘tice knew that it would be served fwithin the city limits. - A large number of opinions was handed down by both the supreme court of appeals Wednesday. These will probably be the last cases to |be decided upon and announced by the two courts until after the Christmas holidays. New Countieés’ Officers.

An important meeting of the Geor- gia securities commission, which is composed of Attorney General R. A. Denny, Commissioner of Conimerce and Labor Hal M. Stanley and Sec- retary of State S. Guyt, McLendon, chairman, was held at the state capitol Wednesday. companies were granted renewals to sell the unsold balance of their stock within this state under their licenses issued since January ., 1919, according to an announcement made by Chief Investigator Thomas Conner. The St. Simons Islands Develop- { ment company, of Brunswick, was granted a@ license to sel! 4,000 shares of stock at a par value of $100 each. This concern has a number of prominent Georgians interested in it, while several northerners are also stockholders, according to Mr. Conner. Owen Wister, the Philadel- phia writer, is one of those inter- ested in the project. The proceeds of the sale of stock will be used to build a highway and two bridges connecting the island with the mainland and de- velop 10,000 acres of land on the island, which is the property of the company, according to statements submitted to the commission.

He had been critically ill for several er- ror. L. Cowart, Mexico City, ays. The death of General Hill caused great excitement here. In official circles, it was declared he was re- garded as an important factor in the consolidation of the various factions which made the election of General Obregon to the presidency possible. General Hill had an espe- cially strong following in the north among the Yaqui Indians. For hours preceding the general’s death crowds collected outside his resi- dence. When word was received from the sick chamber that he was dead several members of the Yaqui guard wept and wailings and lam- entations went up from the crowd. General Benjamin Hill, who died in the city of Mexico early this morn- ing, was considered in some poli- successor to President Alvaro Obre- gon. Born of rich parents in the state of Sonora, Mexico, young Hill was educated in the schools and later sent to Italy where he studied as a civil engineer. Most o* his early life was spent in Eu- rope, where he traveled extensive- ly. On a number of occasions Gen- eral Hill occupied the position as military commander of the garrison in the City of Mexico. Following the break between General -Obre- gon and General Pablo Gonzales, General Hill was again placed in charge of the military district of the City of Mexico, where he fre- mained until calied to the cabinet of President Obregon. Big Illinois Plant Reported in Flames; Million-Dollar Damage St. Louis, December 15.—Fire fighting forces from Granite City and Venice, Ill, were called to Mad- ison today to ald the Madison fire department and several hundred volunteers in efforts to check a fire which broke out in the plant of the Helmbacker Forge and Rolling Mil! company, and threatened to spread to a rg@gidence sectian. It vis estimated that the prop erty damage would exceed $1,009, 000. The origin of the fire had not been determined. Several fire com- panies from St. Louis and East 8t. Louis were sent to Madison this afternoon to aid in combatting the blaze. RESCUERS REWARDED BY NAVY SECRETARY New York, December 15.—Three officers of the UW. S. S. General George W.

BOYCOTT CHARGE HEARING TO LAST FOR ENTIRE WEEK Testimony of W. A. Ray, hard- ware man, of Tampa, Fla., consumed the entire session of the second da of the hearing held before George McCorkle, examiner for the federal trade commission, of boycott charges, against the Southern Hardwere Job- \ bers’ association, which was begun in the United States courtroom Tuesday morning. Mr. Ray is pres- ident of the W. A. Way Hardware company. Charles Melvin Neff, of Washing- ton, D. C., represents the govern- ment at the hearing, and counsel for the respondents are Peter O.

Mr. Rav will resume his testimony this morning. The complainants in the boycott action brought by the government are the American Purchasing com- pany and the Merchants’ Co-Opera- tive association, both of Atlanta. F. L. Jeter, president of both enter- prises, testified Tuesday that mem- bers of the jobbers’ association had brought pressure to bear upon man- ufacturers to prevent them from selling goods to members of the co- operative association, a body of southern hardware dealers organized for the purpose of purchasin:s collec- tively. direct from the manufacturer, in order to eliminate the profit of middlemen.

INSURANCE WORLD STIRRED BY GREAT ANTI-TRUST MOVE Jackson, Miss., December 15.—In- surance officials from other states are reaching JawkKson tonight to discuss with authorities the anti- trust litigation filed by the state revenue agent against practically all the fire insurance companies do- ing business in this state. Just what steps will be taken at this conference, which will proba- bly be held at an early date, is a matter of uncertainty, but In some circles it is believed the fire insur- ance companies will withdraw from the state following the action of a revenue agent In garnisheeing A agents. The state insurance department had no connection with the filing of the suit, it is stated, and offictals of this department claim they knew nothing about the litigation until the suits had been filed. Late tonight the insurance com- missioner had received no notice from any company of its intention to withdraw, but it is known that such a movement is being serious- ly considered by officials of a num- ber of companies. As matters now stand all of the funds in the hands of local agents over the state are tied up to await a court decision in January. It is stated that this will render the vompanies unable to operate antil the litigation is disposed of.

Look at the Facts -Squarely a IT PAYS TO HAVE GOOD HEALTH Most Illnesses Are Prevent- ed by a Good Supply of Rich, Red Blood. Take Pepto-Mangan, the Red Blood Builder _ Either you are in good health or you are not. There’s no half way. You may think nothing of being a little run down. It may not worry you if you look pale. You may think you'll be all right tomorrow or next day. But will you? Certain it is when you do not feel just right, yau are not right. There is probably something the matter with your blood. And while you can get around and do your work you are leaving yourself open to any of the diseases that are al- ways waiting to take possession of run down people. _ When you are pale and easily tired, when you cannot enjoy your meals, when you lose enthusiasm, your blood needs attention. Take Pepto-Mangan for awhile. It is a great tonic. It will build up your resistance to disease, and you will soon feel stronger. The little red corpuscles are fighters. They battle with disease germs and win out when there are enough of them. Keep your system well supplied. Then you will keep well and you will enjoy life. But be certain you get the gen- uine Pepto-Mangan. Ask for it by the full name—“Gude’s Pepto-Man- gan.” Some people take it in tab- let form. It is so convenient. The liquid and the tablets have the Sam@ medicinal value. Look for the name “Gude’s” on the package. —(adv.) ERUPTION 3 BAD GOULD NOT SLE On Arms and Back.

Washington, December 15.—The Capper-Hersman bill exempting farmers’ co-operative marketing as- sociations from the provisions of the Sherman anti-trust law was passed today by the senate without a rec- ord vote. The bill now goes to a conference for consideration of a senate amend- ment providing that the federal trade commission instead of the sec- retary of agriculture shall pass on complaints against any co-operative association. Other amendments added by the senate provide that complaints against the co-operative associa- tions shall be heard in the federal judicial district in which the prin- cipal office of the association is lo- cated, and that any attempt to cre- ate a monopoly or resort to unfair methods of competition in commerce shall make the association liable to prosecutions under the anti-trust laws and the Clayton act. For Mutual Benefit. Associations formed under the -measure must operate for the mu- tual benefit of the memDers. No member is permitted to have more than one vote regardless of the amount of stock or membership, capital and dividends are limited to 8 per cent of the capital stock. Final vote in the senate not later than January 24 on the Kenyon- Kendrick bill, for federal regulation of the meat-packing industry, was agreed upon today by republican leaders. Postponement of action on the bill was taken largely to give Senator Sherman, republican, of Illinois, an opponent who is ill, an opportunity to present his views next month. Senator Harrisong democrat, Missis- sippi, inquired whether the bill could be passed by the house and enacted finally during this session. Senator Kenyon, republican, Iowa, in charge of the measure, said he could not give any assurances, but that the house could proceed with a similar measure meanwhile. After the voting agreement, the packer bill was set aside for de- bate on the house bill providing for co-operative marketing by farmers. This measure was advocated by Senators Kellogg, of Minnesota, and Lenroot, of Wisconsin, republicans, and Smith, democrat, Georgia.

NO RELIEF POSSBLE FROM INCOME TAXE Bureau Will Be Powerless to Act During the Money Stringency. Washington, December 15.—The internal revenue bureau is power- less under the law to grant any re- lief from penalties to be imposed on individuals and corporations who because of “tight money,” “business depression” or for other reasons were unable today to pay the last installment of tax on their 1919 in- comes. This statement was made tonight by Commissioner Williams when his attention was called to reports from various parts of the country that persons and corpora- tions had informed revenue collect- ors that they now were financially unable to pay taxes on the money they earned last year. Congress alone, Commissioner Williams said, can afford relief to delinquents from the penalties. which amount to 5 per .cent of the tax due and 1 per cent interest monthly on the unpaid portion. Representative Edmonds, repub- lican, of Pennsylvania, declar'ng that thousands of taxpayers had been unable to meet their final in- stallment, and should be afforded relief, introduced in the house to- day a bill to suspend penalties for nonpayment for sixty days. Both the senate finance committee and house ways and means committee, however, have decided against legis- lation sllowing any postponement of payments. SHIPPING BOARD ASKS BIG APPROPRIATION The shipping board today re- quested of congress an appropriation of $95,021,500 to meet estimated de- ficiencies during the rest of the current fiscal year.

WESTERN UNION ISSUES DEFI IN CABEE DISPUTE Continued From First Page. quired a very big organization to censor communications and that these had been broken up by Eu- ropean countries generally since the war. Reads Statement. Reading a prepared statement to the committee, Mr. Carlton discuss- ed at length the refusal of the American government to permit the landing at Miami, Fla., of his com- rany’s cable from Barbadoes, which is to connect with the British line there to Brazil, and charged that by its action the government was seeking to preserve “a United States-South American monopoly jn favor of another company.” Elihu Root, Jr., appearing for the All-American Cables, gave an en- tirely different version of the con- troversy. He said the question in Stopping the Miami cable landing was that it might lead to the Brit- ish company giving up its Bra- zilian monopoly and charged that the Western Union had entered into &@ contract with this British com- pany by which the American con- cern would direct to the British lines all the business collected by it in the United States. Mr. Root said this contract with the Western Union was a counter attack by the British company on the All-America Cables as a re- sult of the later company obtain- ing through court litigation in Bra- zil permission to build its own lines to Santos and Rio de Janeiso. He added that the All-America. was given the option “of retaining its west coast monopoly arid giving up its lines on the east coast of South America, or taking on in a commer- cail war the two greatest commer- cail communication companies.” The All-America company, he said, refused the offer. The British gov- ernment, the witness testified, is supporting the British company in the fight. Acting Secretary Davis, of department, testifying as the to Union, refused to the Western said the president had | permit the landing of the Barbadoes cable because it would connect wtih the British line, which enjoyed a monopoly in Brazil and that this action was “in conformity with American precedent and traditon.” Secretary Davis also said that the (| president had decided that decision on the Western Union landing should be postponed pending the meeting of the international com- munications conference and _ that when it appeared that the Western Union intended to disregard this warning, the navy was ordered to act. Mr. Carlton testified in this re- gard that when the matter of the broached to the state department no braoched to the state department no objection was raised and that no reply was made to notice that the company was preparing to land the cable until American warships ap- peared off Miami for the beginning of what the witness call “the bloodless and historic battle of Miami.”’ Walter S. Rogers, of Washing- ton, one of the American commis- sioners to the communications con- ference, told the committee about the agreement not to censor cable messages at relay points, and also stressed the importance of getting American news to foreign countries. Mr. Rogers said he had heard a great deal of complaint that Ameri- can business messages passing through the British,censorship dur- ing the war were copied and turn- ed over to British trade interests, but that he had never followed up any instances. He added, however, that it was a great factor in busi- ‘ness to know that cablegrams con- cerning a foreign trade possibility were being exchanged. Mr. Rogers also said it was im- portant that the United States ex- ercise its own power of control over cable landings as such landings in foreign countries were made sub- ject to conditions of varying strict- ness. MOTHER TRAINING | PLEA OF HARDING President-Elect Sounds “Old-Fashioned” Note in Speech Before League, After Busy Day of Con- ferences. Marion, Ohio, December 15.— American mothers were asked by President-eelct Harding tonight to give to school officials and other public servants a full measure of co-operation in the educational, re- igious and physical training of chil- dren. Speaking here before a state mect- ing of the Child Conservation league, Mr. Harding declared it the duty of motherhood to keep the old-time home spirit alive in spite of the growing tendency to entrust the instruction of the child almost wholly to public institutions. He gious training be kept within the province of the hearth, and voiced a hope for a revival of religious rev- erence in the trying times ahead. The president-elect also asked that the public welfare agencies of the nation be kept democratic, and expressed disapproval of the prac- tice of the rich in withdrawing their children from the public schools and entering them in pri- vate institutions. He reaffirmed his hope that great good would be ac- complished by the new public wel- fare department to be proposed by his administration and said he had found sentiment in and out of con- gress strongly supporting the plan. Many Callers. The address was delivered at the Methodist Episcopal church here at the end of one of Mr. Harding's busi- est days since he began his consul- tations on an association of na- tions and other public problems. His callers included Raymond Robins, of Chicago, a former leader of the progressive party; Senator Fall, of New Mexico, and George F. Wil- liams, a@ former American minister to Greece, and the conferences are understoed to have covered many foreign and domestic questions. Mr. Fall, the first member of the senate to visit the president-elect since his return to Marion, came from Washington and is said to have given Mr. Harding detailed ad- vice on numerous subjects that have been talked over among republic- an leaders in congress. It was in- dicated that cabinet selections was one of the topics discussed and that much attention alsO was given to the financial situation. Mr. Fall is an advocate of immediate aid to the agricultural interests of the coun- try and told the president-elect that unless something were done within the next three months, serious dis- location of food markets would oc- cur. Plans for Peace. Confidence of an acceptable solu- tion of the peace tangle Was ex- pressed by Senator Fall, who said after the conference that he believed the president-elect’s consultations here were progressing toward a peace plan that would permit Amer- ica to regain world leadership. He said he personally believed the best solution would be a new peace cone ference at Washington at which European nations would be eager to be present. Senator Fall, who has been men- tioned in some quarters for a cab- inet position, has been irreconcila- bly opposed to the treaty of Ver- sailles, but he said he knew of no irreconcilable senators who wanted no world peace association at all. Mr. Robins’ talk with the pres!- dent-elect was directed toward eco- nomic and social eonditions abroad, although the financial and labor situation in the United States also was discussed. Mr. Williams pre- sented a -irefully prepared asso- ciation plan which he said was fa- vorably regarded by a number of prominent Amepicans. Will Meet Coolidge. During the day, Senator Harding also talked with Will A. Pears, of Des Moines, Iowa, about the move- ment for exchanges of scholarships between universities in Mexico and the United States. Afterward Mr. Pears said the plan had the presi- dent-elect’s hearty approval, though he did not consider it a matter for governmental action. ; Thursday Governor Cbolidge, of Massachusetts, the vice president- elect, will talk over administration policies with Mr. Harding. He will reach Marion early in the morning and spend the forenoon at the Har- ding residence. Many Ancient Relics In Prehistoric Town Found in New Mexico New York, December 15.—Discov- ery of the ruins of a pre-historic village and cemetery, in which were many relics of great value, in the Navajo country in New Mexico, was announced. today by the American Museum of National History. The discovery was made by an explora- tion party, headed by Earl H. Mor- ris, which has been conducting ex- cavations in the Pueblo community dwelling at Aztec, N. M. Fragments of polished pottery, glistening in the sun, led the party “by mere chance,” to the new dls- covery, Mr. Morris wrote to head- quarters here. Hundreds of pot- tery vessels of artistic design and scores of ancient tombs, which re- vealed many interesting habits of living, were unearthed, he said. “There had been more than twen- ty dwellings in the village,” he wrote, ‘‘varying in size from four to as many as fifty rooms.” made a particular plea that reli-& AUGUSTAN PLEADS GUILTY TO CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT Valdosta, Ga., December (‘Special.)—Herbert Perkins, mem- ber of a prominent Augusta fam- ily and former receiving teller of an Augusta national bank, pleaded guilty of embezzlement in the Unit- ed States district court here today and was fined $750 by Judge Bev- erlv D. Evans. Young Perkins was charged with embezzling between $2,500 and $3,- 000, which he obtained by chang- ing deposit slips of prominent Au- gusta business firms. The first of- fense, according to the indictment of the grand jury, was on September l, las:, when he is charged with’ al- tering a deposit slip and taking $1,000. Similar transactions up to October 15 were charged. In his statement in court today Perkins stated that he did not know why he had defrauded the bank, as he was receiving a good Salary and did not need the money. All of the defalcations were made good by Perkins. The accused presented in court to- day affidavits from the Augusta Young Men’s Christian association, Augusta churches and prominent Augusta citizens, attesting his good character. He is president of the Augusta Young Men’s Christian as- sociation, and the association is Standing by him, having refused to accept his resignation. He is also deacon in an Augusta Baptist church. eit is understoed that Judge Evans Ayxs disposed to be lenient with the accused on the _ strength of the showing made and the desire of Perkins’ friends to reinstate him in the confidence of his home peopie. CHINA TAKES RANK AMONG THE POWERS Continued From First Page. 15.— English gave delegates an example of clearness and conciseness, which, if it had come earlier, might have shortened the meeting of the as- sembly. The assembly of the league -of nations elected today the first for- mer enemy state member of the league without opposition. The vote on the admission of Austria came after ah unexpected passage at arms between Giuseppe Motta, of Switz- erland, and M. Viviani, representing France. M. Motta, speaking on the report of the committee, recalled the rejec- tion of Germany’s application for admission by the peace conference, saying that Switzerland had always regretted it and that there were now three places vacant in the league Which ought to be filled by the United States, Russia and Germany. Vote on Austria. At the mention of Germany, Mr. Viviani asked for the floor, and upon the conclusion of M. Motta’s speech, in which the Swiss delegate appealed to the assembly for jus- tice, M. Viviani mounted the tribune and launched into a fervid defense of the French viewpoint. It was soon apparent that the assembly was with him and his remarks were greeted with frequent applause. When he descended from the tribune he received the greatest ovation of the assembly. The voting for the admission of Austria, which immediately fol- lowed, was by a nominal roll call, the delegates being asked whether they were in favor or or against admission, some answering in French and others in Englisn.

December 13.—There | are still many candidates out for positions on the Red and Black five, and stiff workouts are on the program every for the strong fives Georgia will have to meet this season. No cuts have been made as yet by Coach Stegeman, and he will probably snot make any until after the holidays. The first game its | Scheduled for January 9, and this / will necessitate a prompt resump- ition of practice. Professor San- _ford promises a list of court bat- tles that will compare favorably with that of ‘other southern fives, 'and with Georgia schedules in the past. AS yet, pames are only cer- tain with Mereer, Auburn, Furman and the Atlanta Athletle cdub. Towards the latter part of the practice today Owens, Bennett, Rawson, Broadnax, Gurr, Frost, Da- vis, Anderson, Captain Cheaves and Clarke constituted two formidable outfits, and a good set-to resulted. Kid Gurr, Lanier High product, and Page Bennett, end of the Bulldog football eleven and star basket man at G. M. C., were opponents at the position. These two men close fight for the pivot berth. Billy Anderson cen- ter of the last two seasons, has been shifted to forward. In the way of forwards, the work of Raw- son, Frost, Anderson and Clarke and Dempsey were figuring on a gate of $200,000, however, when they estimated the champlion’s purse at $100,000.

FIFE, JR. {ndications are that the basket- ball season in both the girls’ and the boys’ prep leagues will have one of the best years in history. The teams in both leagues are hard at work for the coming year, and the race in each league should .be the keenest on record. The quintets in the boys’ league are better balanced than ever before. Very few of the mén who have returned have played ’ reason many new faces will be seen in-the local preps. The same is true in the girls’ league. Only one team will “have amything like a team of veterans, and that is Marietta High. This school will be represented again ti”fs vear by the same team that fovght through the 1919 season for ‘them. The championship winning team of lulton High was complete- Jy broken up. They lost their entire uggregation, and they will be with- ‘out the services this year of Dorris Walker, Frances Phillips. Miss Brown and Ruth Williams. The rest of the teams in the girls’ league shpuld have teams that will nearly be:on par with the strength of these two quintets, and for this reason the race for the championship should be' the hottest in the five years that the leagve has been running. The day has long since when the title in school sports rests between Tech High and Boys’ Ifigh. Last year the G. M. A. Cadets came through the best race on rec- ord and copped the title.

Besides G. M. A., there are other schools that should | be watched, for thev are have strong organizations. All Have Chance. In the boys’ league, every team entered has a chance to grab awiy the championship, from all present indications. Tech High is the only School with any number of veterans back in the harness. Of the possi- ble winners, the following are the most outstanding: Tech High, Boys’ High, University High, G. M. A. and Hulton High. The other two mem- bers of the league should not be counted as easy marks, for who can tell but that they may come through and anrex the title? Dope has gone wrong before. In the Girls’ league, Seems to have the best chance to land the flag, in view of the fact that they have their entire team of 1919 back in the game. In girls’ basketball the number of vets in the Same counts a lot. The Marietta girls nearly copped the champion- ship last year. With the added ex- perience the Cobb county girls have and the fact that the rest of the teams were completely broken up, it.is somewhat easy to dope out the 1921 title winner. Decatur High wil] have another strong quintet this year and they have been hard at work for some time getting the candidates in perfect trim. Only two veterans on the wonderful team af; 1920 have returned, but Coaches Dilard and Saunders are pleased with the large number of new girls who have responded. Coach Tolbert is scrimmaging four teams and he should develop a very strong quintet from this n ber. Tech High has six letter mén in basketball back and along with a multitude of coming “stars.” The old men that are back, who are going good, are DiChristina, (jreen Warren,. “Flexible” Williams, Nolan Richardson and Leonard Mumford. These five men under the fine coaching. that will be given them by Coach Tolbert, should round out an organization that will be the strongest team for the Smithies inf recent years. +. M. A., winner of the 1920 flag, has but two veterans back from that wonder quintet. Mercer Mur- ray, possibly the best center to be dqveloped in the local league, has departed, and it will be a hard mat- ter to find a man who can fill his stwoes prope.ly. Carter and Miers are the only members of the 1920 team back in the game, but around these two “experts” Coach Burbage «xpects to round out a fine quintet. ; Boys’ High Hit Hard. Coach O. K.

Perhaps it Is only fair to ‘give some idea of this, so that the average layman may understand what it means to be an All-Amer- ican man today. Taking an indi- vidual man in position as an exX- ample of this, there is no better illustration than Stanley Keck, the Princeton tackle. Here was a tackle who, in hi. two big games, show- ed the following qualifications. In the first place, he had the usual earmarks of a strong player in the position, namely, ability to handle himself well, to break through, to tackle. to lead a line buck or @ play that went between the tackle and guard, to aid an end and sometimes to beat him in gettipg down the field under kicks. Then, in addi- tion, Keck hurried the forward passer as well as the kicker; he was a long-distance placement kick- er, a goal kicker of accuracy and finally, with one or two compare. tively light men in his back field, he helped bear their burdens in a measure where they were forced to come up against weight and pow ant One added element was that 9) shiftiness, his ability to move on defense from one side of the line to the other according as unbal- anced lines required greater power to meet the charge. He met the Harvard charges, he shifted to — formation plays, broke through an hurried the passer and the kicker, and finally brought about a rete” down by blocking the ae eer punt.

He is quick as a cat, for all his weight, and particu- larly brilliant in sizing up the break in the line and getting to it by the time the runner reaches it. A bad shoulder forced him into the position of guard on account of his inability to pass the ball, but that has not In the least interfered with his work as a guard. Woods, of Harvard, was in a class by himself for power, aggressiveness, and abil- ity to diagnose plays. His huge frame is impregrable to line forcing, and he its wonderfully active for such a big man. “At center it was for a time a very close thing between Stein, of Pittsburg. and Cunningham, of Dartmouth. Stein has come through just a little more successfully than Cunningham. Not that this casts any reflection upon the latger. but it must be rememberd that Dart- mouth suffered at the hands of both Syracuse and Penn State, whereas, Pittsburg, in spite of some close calls, has come through. and Stein has really been the keystone of the line and has kept it together when things were disintegrating. He passes particularly well and is thor- oughly satisfactory in all the re- quirements of this not exceedingly difficult job. A good deal of the / passing now is direct passing. and that requires even greater regular- ity than passing through the quar- terback.

As a matter of fact, with this line there would be very little tackling left for the secondary defense, and in that way it would be kept fresh at all times. With Lourie and Gipp throwing for- ward passes, Stinchcomb and Way receiving them, a. defense of the opponents would bé well put to it to offer a tight resistance, and with this line opening holes and driv- ing the opposing line back for these able for IS to opponents would have to come up | at times. And a great asset in its own defense to that now most dan- | gerous menace to modern football— the forward pass—is that all these backfield men are of the keen-wit- ted type that diognoses the direc- tion and can cover up quickly.

McIntire has been mentor here since 1915, and under his re- gime the Mountaineers have earned a prominent place in the football world. The sentiment is now against Mc- Intira because of the showing of the Mountaineers during the past season, and it was rumored for some time that he would not coach here next season. While Melntire was not entirely to blame for the showing, he, as head coach, is the storm-center and will, no doubt, give way to another mentor. So far, no successor to MelIntire has been named, and the official announcement of his departure has not been made, but the report has it that a definite statement will be made within the next several weeks. MelIntire’s passing marks the close of the most’ successful . period West Virginia has ever had in foot- ball, and his going is not without regret to the many friends of this popular mentor. -_——— FURMAN WILL PLAY TWO NEXT TEAMS DURING NEXT FALL Greenville, 8.

New York, December 15. — The stock market became heavy again | today, various unfavorable develop- / ments in‘the course of the session | detracting from the fairly steady pening and provoking fresh sell- ng. _ Sentiment was rendered increas- ingly bearish by means of numerous dividend suspensions, further cur- tailment in steel and iron produc- tion and renewed unsettlement -in several of the more important com- modity markets. Adverse conditions in the metal industry were - confirmed by an- nouncement of a wholesale reduc- tion, beginning® January 1 next, of wages of copper miners, — The money market and foreign exchange were distinctly stable, de- spite misgivings concerning the for- mer. s&normous federal income tax payments caused no. disturbance, being offset in large measure by the heavy . disbursements of the treasury department for interest on Liberty bonds and maturing certifi- cates of'indebtedness.

PROFESSIONAL VIEWS ON COTTON SITUATION New Orleans, December 15.—(Special.)— On the whole, there seems to be a better feeling owing to the fact that large finan- cial institutions are very optimistic in the general situation and look for easier money in the near future. Besides, the trade shows more disposition to buy on the belief | Januaryé! i | showing ,; in the cheapness of price levels and bullish results likely to occur from the assistance ta the agricifitural interests from the pro- posed legislation in the latter's behalf. The better feeling at present in cotton is fur- there prompted by the fact that it is asked why is cotton selling down nearly to pre- war prices while wheat is nearly double / pre-war levels ayd coal is selling at more i / mill | there, while no great activity is expected market back to about the figures | ruling just before the publication | of the oyernment’s crop estimate | on Monday. The demand from shorts | then subsided and the appearance of inereased southern selling orders led to scattering liquidations which sent prices back to about last night’s closing quotations. The cen- sus report showed domestic mill consumption of only 332,057 bales for November compared with 491,- 50 last year but bearish figures wad been expected and seemed to have been pretty well discounted. Liverpool cables reported a quiet market there, with some trade buy- ing to fix prices and South Atlan- tic spot interests were credited with buying a few contracts in the local mafket.

Increased production owed every other factor in the wheat market. Word that one mil- lion bushels had been taken for ex- port by way of the Gulf of Mexico failed to assist the bulls. On the contrary, it was said rural offer- ings in the southwest had become more liberal. Many in the trade not only looked on the grain figures as bearish, and wheat especially so, but further considered the big crop of potatoes important as furnishing a bread substitute. Even the most radical bulls had to concede that any wheat shortage this season would be a month later than had overshad- New Orleans ” c e . a we Gone Exchange ew: zor tock e “EMBERS “ New York Produ “~~ PROFITS Now Being Made in COTTON Spot and Future Contracts Ten Bales Up Write for Interesting Booklet, mier- | cabies | demand | 7.45. | 14% per New York,+«December 15.—Liberty bonds ' 84.00: second | fourth 4%s 85.90; | electrolytic, spot and nearby 13%@14: first | | | No. 11, “How to Trade in Cotton” STOCKS—COTTON—GRAIN 81 Broad St., New York NTEREST or dividend bearing securities are Idea] Gifts and will in- culcate habits of thrift and saving.

In explaining their action, Cana- dium directors stated that the com- pany’s earnings are in excess of regular dividend requirements, but because of the present state of business it was deemed advisable to conserve cash resources. The an- nouncement of the dividend reduc- tion followed suspension of dividend by several other companies today, resulting in an increasingly bearish sentiment in the stock market. Dividends Passed. New York, December 15.—Direc- tors of the Willys-Overland com- pany today announced, their regular quarterly dividend of 1% per cent preferred stock would be passed. Directors of the Keystone Tire company today decided to pass the quarterly dividend of 3 per cent due at this time. Coffee.

Venice, December 15.—(By ssociated Press.)\—Former the King © ee pata of Greece, on his way home from Switzerland to reoccu- py the throne of Greece, was re- ceived this morning by the Italian sovernment with all the honors due the sovereign of a friendly nation. Constantine and the members of his family were met at th& rail- |Way station by the Italian admiral of the port, the mayor of Venice | and other officials, and Shortly aft- er his arrival, cruiser Averoff, _The agyal party,’ after leaving the train, entered a launch and rap- idly made the trip to the Baccino of San Marco where the Averoff and the Greek destroyers of the escort and the American destroyer South- land and Italiag and other allied warships lay at anchor. The Greek ships were bedecked in flags as Constantine stepped up the companionway of the Averoff, from which the Greek royal pen- nant was broken out. Some time later the Southland and the allied ships were dressed with signal flags from bow to stern in recognition of his arrival. Constantine will depart on the last leg of his homeward journey Thursday morning. The Averoff, on the voyage to Greece, will be accompanied by a destroyer escort and a merchant ship, which will have on board the newspaper cor- respondents and a few members of: Constantine’s suite. The Averoff is due at Phaleron, the port of Ath- ens, at 1 o’clock Sunday afternoon. Although Constantine left Lu- cerne on the regular train, he ar- rived in Venice on a special train from Milan. His cars were de- boarded the Greek. . tached from the regular at the Ital- ian frontier. The ostensible rea- son for this was that the train would be unable to climb the grades with the heavy load of the three ex- tra cars. It is understood, how- ever, that the® detaching of the cars was a precautionary measure. Greek officials and detectives are said to have suspected some unto- ward situation on the journey and were willing that Constantine should continue on the announced schedule.

(At the Grand.) a favorite in Atlanta through previous suc- cessful engagements returns to the city this week in ae 1920 offering Josie Flynn's Fashion instrels, which is .the stellar headliner at Loew's Grand ohn ursday, Friday’and Saturday. This lively and colorful utation of feminine talent is a standa hit of the variety stage. This season the act has been enhanced several times over by the addition of an entirely new line of ma- terial. Four other varied vandeville feitures are announced for the week-end bill at the I~ew house, while Earle Williamg in a new rcmantic comedy-drama, ‘‘The Master Stroke,’’ heads the screen program. Keith Vaudeville. (At! the Lyric.) One of the prettjest and most elaborate novelties of vaudeville will be offered by Mile. Theo and her dandies as top feature of the Thursday, Friday and Saturday bill of Keith vaudeville at the Lyric. The act fs a miniature musical revue in three com- plete scenes and features ‘‘the original bal- loon girl.’’ A unique skit entitled ‘‘Don’t Make Me Laugh,” ig Jromised by Ann Butler and Hal Parker, two favorites of variety who are certain of an ovation in Atlanta. Bob and Peggy Valentine in ‘Vital ‘Sta- tistics,’’ will be another popular feature of the Dill. “Two Dudes From Dixie,”’ Anthony Hughes and Ollie Debrow, will star in a blackface comedy oddity that is said to be a scream, The famous “‘human bird’’ of vaudeville will be seen in amazing feats in the of- fering of Lucille and Cockle. f Change of Program. (At the Howard.) There will be an entire change of bill at the Howard theater today, all of which is in accordance with the two-a-week policy that Manager DeBruler has inaugurated for the benefit of those who feel the urge to week, The program will consist of a feature picture, two fine wuusical offerings, a brand-new news weekly, a clever two-reel feature comedy and of course an overture by the Howard orchestra. The performance will open with an over- ture, and Director Leide has selected for the occasion, Victor Herbert’s delightful ‘‘American Fantasie,’’ one of the most won- derful of all the modern compositions and a number that will undoubtedly prove pop- ular with every patron of the theater. The second offering will be the How- ard’s News and Views, a fine collection of current events has been selected for this reel from practically all the prominent news weeklies and scenics of the week. Following the news weekly is the grand opera presentation by Alma Doria, the beautiful soprano, who will sing the delight- ful aria from the first act of ‘‘Traviata,’’ one of the most charming of Verdi’s wonder- ful operas. Next comes the comedy, for no program would be complete without one of these ever welcome two-reelers, and in this in- stance the management has selected a new vanity production entitled ‘‘Without Wife.’’ The title suggests just what kind of a picture it is, The fifth number on the program intro- duces Herbert Waterous, the famous.basso, who proved such a sensation the first part of the week. His offering for the last half will) be a dramatic rendition of ‘‘In- victus,’’ with full orchestra accompaniment and lighting effects. Then comes the feature picture, ‘‘Helio- trope,’”’ a Paramount-Cosmopolitan produc- tion, with an all-star cast, and one of the finest releases of the year. This deeply appealing picture, adapted from the * well known story by Richard Washburn Child, depicts the limits to which a father will go to protect the happiness of his daughter. Without for.an jnstant descending into melodrama, it unfolds a plot that for sheer excitement hag seldom been equated, Wilfred Lytell, Frederick Burton, Diana Allen- and Julia Swayne Gordon are included in the cast. “AC ity Sparrow.’ : (At the Rialto.)

The world do move—particularly the shimmy became fashionable. = The new which makes Goldwyn’s new Madge Kenne- dy production, ‘“‘The Girl with the Jazz Heart,’’ which comes to the Forsyth thea- ter for three days commencing Thursday, ing enormous audiences to the Rialto thea- ter this week, Miss Clayton, as a cabaret dancer, sings a song printed by a music publishing concern in Los Angeles, some lines of which are thrown synchronously upon the screem The lines are pretty and those who have heard the music pronounce it quite catchy. The picture has been admirably produced and it is one of the best seen here this season. “Clarence.” (At Atlanta Theater.) There will be performances at the At- of the week of Booth Tarkington’s latest comedy, ‘‘Clarence,’’ with a matinee on Saturday. ‘‘Clarence’’ swept into tremen- fous pppularity at its Atlanta debut Mon- day night. The play has been hailed by critics generally . as eg Tarkington’s su- preme achievement as a playwright. Within the past few years it has come to be a fact that whenever a new play from Tar- kington’s pen is announced the general pub- lic—either those who have been charmed by his plays or fascinated by his books— sit up and take notice, for there is no author in America today who enjoys such tremendous popularity. Robert Adams, who enacts the title role, was last seen in Atlanta in one of the principal roles of ‘Little Women,” Brron gn_unusually effective picture. The story deals with Mennonite mald who runs away to New York to avoid an unpleasant marriage, Miss Kennedy plays dual roles _ in the pic- ture—the Mennonite lass and Rittle, “The Girl with the Jazz Heart’ —who and which | is the creation of Robert Shannon. William Farnum. (At the Strand.) William Farnum’s latest starring vehicle, “The Joyous Trouble, Makers,’’ ‘is proving one of the best pittures that the hand- some star has been seen in at the Strand this season. Mr. Farnum is world renowned as a great romantic actor. Many great classics have been rewritten for him; now, in ‘The Joyous Trouble Makers’’ he is setting out to make a classic. It is not a mining camp story, although it is about gold hunting. Tt is a love story, naturally, for Farnum has been hailed as ‘‘the perfect lover’ and it is in love passages that his world audience likes him best. Louise Lovely represents the other half of the romance.

The second sensation was an at- tempt on the part of Attorney R. H. Goodwin, to bring out®by direct questioning of Attorney Hamilton Lee, evidence to the effect that he had been convicted in the police court for gambling ‘and had been convicted in tbe Florida courts on the charge of mufder. When Lee came off of the stand he approached Mr. Goodwin and said: “You just come outside of the room with me.’ Chief Beav-’ ers interfered and Mr. Lee sat down with the remark that, “I'll just sit here until he goes out.” Mr. Goodwin is attorney for Clar- ence Hart, an admitted bootlegger, and one of the witnesses at the probe earlier in the week. “Mr. Lee is attorney for also a witness at the investigation. Mr. Lee was subpoenaed at the re- quest of Mr. Goodwin, who assert- ed that the attorney had made statements in the newspapers char~ing him and his client with false swearing. Interesting Story. The evidence of tir. White was ‘one of the most interesting stories ‘heard by the committee since the hearing began last Thursday. He ‘said he had found out that the al- /leged crooks had headquarters at ‘two downtown hotels, in one promi- ‘nent office building and in the _ places raided by the solicitor. Mr. White testified that he knew the names of a majority of these “crooks,” but that he had not fur- /nished them to Chief Beavers. He asserted that he told Chief Beavers trat he had information to the ef- fect that the police would probably be involved when Solicitor Boykin’s investigation reached its climax, and ‘that he gave to the chief consider- able other information, which he had obtained from parties who had been ' fleeced out of large sums of money, 'and from other sources. He said that he had known for a ' year and a half that an organized i syndicate was working in Atlanta (‘and had -knowledge that Solicitor Poykin was gathering evidence to clear the city of the gamblers: Asked by Attorney Chambers why 'he did not report these conditions , to Chief Beavers earlier, if he had ‘known of their existence for such |a long time, Mr. White replied that |he was trying to assist ex-prison | inmates, who were his principal itn- ' formants, and he didn’t want to in- | volve them in any expose. ‘White Is Questioned. dangerous practice for a private | citizen to carry on an underground system of detection of criminals without the knowledge of the po- sce? asked Attorney Chambers. The witness replied that ‘it might be, but said: “If these men had gone to the detective department and told their story they would not have been believed.” He said some of the men he was trying to assist weré formerly iden- tified with the gang and its mem- bersghad induced four of them to rejoin.

This brought from Attorney Chambers the question: “Can you mention a single instance where a policeman or detective has been hampered in the discharge of his duty?” He replied that he had heard such rumors, but declined to give the author. During the course of His testi- mony Mr. White said he didn’t see why the council committee and the solicitor’s office were each conduct- ing an investigation touching on the same matters. “One is a star chamber session and one is public, that’s why,” re- plied Mr. Chambers, who continued: “Do you know that grand juries in some states have been abDolish- ed?” Mr. White told him that he had been in grand jury rooms many times and had always found the jurors impressed with their obliga- tion in the discharge of their duty. At this point the witness was turned over to the committee for cross-examination. “You are a hu- manitarian, Philanthropist, are you not?’ eikelanes Mr. Hatcher. “Some Are Doing Well.” — “Don’t uSe those words,’ ’impor- tuned the witness. “I am just an or- dinary man. Helping these men is just my way of dissipating. Some of them are in business and doing well, too.’ As the second question Mr. Hatch- er asked: “In your opinion could the police have broken up. these gambling places by the exercise of ordinary dilignece?” “Well, I shovld think they could,” he returned, “but these crooks are smart. They’re the greatest stu- dents of hitman psychology in the world. 7 He told however, of having had information from a half dozen sources of sixty men, alleged mem- bers of the gang of crooks and con- fidence men, who visited together one of the places subsequently raid- ed by the _ solicitor, nd asserted that there were over 100 in the city at that time. Attorney Chambers requésted him to give the committee the names of his informants. He refused, and it was at this point Mr. Chambers charged him with perpetrating “a damnable outrage on the police de- partment” By testifying that he had heard of the movements of a band of crooks and refusing to divulge the source of his information. Questioned About Donaldson. Chief Poole asked him then if he knew Bert Donaldson, ex-convict prison reformer. He admitted he did. “Isn’t it a fact that the most of your information has come from him,” the chief queried. “Some of it,” replied the witness. Once more Mr. Chambers tried to elicit from him the names of per- sons who posted him about the op- eration of the ring of criminals and asked Mr. Hatcher to use what power the committee had to make him answer. Mr. Hatcher said he didn’t know what power the com- mittee had in this respect, but re- quested Mr. White to give the com- mittee the information. He still declined and was dismissed, after having been the target of questions for more than an hour. Lee Called to Stand, When Mr. Lee was called to the stand, Mr. Goodwin began to inter- rogate him. “You have been several times ar- rested for gambling and bound over to the state courts ,have you not?” The witness admitted having been arrested more than once. “You have been selling liquor, have you: not?” retorted Attorney Lee. “You were convicted in a Florida court for murder and sentenced to hang, were you not?” ‘Under the Georgia laws,” said the witness, addressing the chair- man, “no man ts permitted to ques- tion the character of a person for deeds alleged to have been com- mitted more than ten years ago. You can’t make me answer that, and I refusc.” Witness Is Excused. The chairman did not insist and excused him from the stand. He went directly to Goodwin and in- vited him to step outside of the room. Mr. Goodwin was then calted to the stand at a request made previ- He asked him only two or three ques- tions, and when he had concluded. Attorney Lee started to quiz him. “Where did vou get your source of information that I was on the charges you mention” asked. under misapprehension as to the charges: was sorry he asked. him the questions he did, and wished to apologize to him. Mr. Lee left the hearing. Games of Chance. Explanation of Attorney Cham- ! No. 10 $10.00— No. 12 $15.00— 29 SOUTH BROAD ST.

Mr. Striplin, Mr. Hastings and Mr. Wil- kinson’s “ox was n the af ch,” he told the committee, “and I was try- ing to help him out.” According to Mr. Chambers, who was testifying under oath, on Sun- day morning following the opening of the fair, Captain W. D. Ellis came to his home, informed him that Chief Beavers had said the games of chance could not operate and wanted to know if something could be doné to enable them to run that season, stating that the fair would be a financial failure if they were closed. Emergency Is Claimed. He stated that the situation ap- peared in the nature of an emer- geney and he arranged for a meet- ing of the board on the midway, purposely omitting to notify Com- missioner Little, because he knew he would be opposed to the plan, and made the motion himself to permit the gambling devices to run. Mr..Chambers said no minutes were kept of the meeting because he daldn’t want to be recorded as voting to permit their continuas tion. Chief Beavers and Chief Poole were abgolved from all connection with this decision, Mr. Chambers saying that the board went over the heads of these officials in per- mitting devices of chance to oper- ate unmolested. “Did you think it would be cal- culated to encourage Chief Beav- erg and Chief Peole in their duty as officers of the law to pass th# rule over their heads?” queried Chairman Hatcher. “No,” replie@ Mr. Chambers, “but it was really in the nature of an emergency and my cle doesn’t hurt me much about it.” Scores Police Board. In his evidence before the probers Wednesday morning, former Police Commissioner Little declared that the members of the board ought to | have been impeached for alloWing | gambling games to run at Lakewood | last year, and scored other policies of the body. He denounced the policy of the board of reinstating within twenty- nine days’ time of men discharged for drinking. He said other mem- bers of the force were hurt by this step. He said the boAérd used to disgust him by its action. . He de- clared that the morale of the police would be: greatly improved if Chief Beavers and Chief Poole had an ab- | solutely free hand in running their | departments. said that while chairman of police committee of the city council, and as such an ex-officio member | he encouraged | of the police board, the practice of allowing men caught in gambling raids, to put up collat- OXFORD EYE GLASSES AND SHOPPING LORGNONS In white, green and yellow gold, with or without dia monds.

The officers couldn’t get the cases tried. They | would spend days getting up the evidence, only to be notified that the cases had been settled in the state courts. Sometimes they would get men sentenced to the chaingang and latér meet them on the street. I just decided that it was better for the city to get the money in for- feited collaterals than for county officers to get it in fees.” Mr. Little told of one raid on which’ he accompanied Lieutenant Shaw. The officer, he said, risked his life in catching a notorious gambler. Mr. Little said he wanted to send this man to the chaingang, but the case was settled by the court for a fine. Mr. Little said he “raised cain” and that Judge Calhoun reopened the case and when it was tried the man was sent to the gang. Another feature of th@ morning session came when.H. W.
