Triest, December 23.—(By the As- - jated Pres.)—Strong cordons of “@arabineersand Alpini, brigaded in proably a score of battalions, have been thrown about Fiume and have completley isloated that city by land. The Italian fleet, which has its headquarters at Pola, is scour- ing the Gulf of Quarnero day and night for d’Annunzio raiders, and searchlights played on the waters from twilight till dawn. General Caviglia gave Captain @Annunzio until 6 o’clock last night to reach a decision to accept the treaty of Rapallo, but the poet- soldier permitted the time limit to expire, when he replyied that the pact could not be accepted, and he would resist its enforcement. Following the issuance of orders to establish a close “blockade, General Caviglia di- seted that foreign citizens and civilians in Fiume be given 43 hours to leave the city. : ‘FIUME FRONT ios BUSY. - F “ Réme, December 23.—Along the Riume front, roads and railway acks have beéen torn up, barbed- wire entanglements .have been es- tablished and al} telehpote and tele- 4 graph wires leading into Fiume have been cut...

He says that the mutiny of the sailors is worthy of imitation, and that his rebellion is.a ‘holy war.” CAR FARE SUIT IN NEW QRLEANS IS DISMISSED New Orleans, December 23.—Judge Fred D.

When the measure was transmitted from the house he first demanded a roll call and then ob- jected te the usual custom of dis- pensing with’its reading and thus delayed until next week the send- ing of the bill to the committee. Senator. McCumber, republican, North Dakota, acting chairman of the: finance committee, said the bill would not be taken up by that com- mittee until next week. He added, cial Gayeties and Hilar- | ity for Kiddies. { ' A cold wave, a crime wave, and a wave of humanity ushered in At- lanta’s Christmas. But the weath- er forecaster says that the sun will temper the one; Chief Beavers believes that his emergency meas- ures have halted the second, and as for the third, everybody hopes that it will continue through the holidays and all thrgugh the New Year. The day befere Christmas ‘brings what many merchants believe will g0 doWn in history as Atlanta’s busiest shopping day. Despite determined propaganda for early shopping, unsettled business conditions throughout the entire .country and the belief that mercantile prices, . especially. prices on holiday gifts, would drop at the very last moment, have caus- ed many Atlantans to postpone making their purchases until the last day left them. a et But the gift-giving spirit is in the air and every store is anticipating a rush that will swamp -delivery systems, and sen@ thousands of Atianta people home bearing bur- dens of magnitude and muititude / thatnothing but the Christmas spir- it would euffer them to endure. School Kiddies Free. The holidays proper opened Thurs- | day when the Atl&nta& schools lib- erated pupils-for the holidays, which will st until January 6& of the hew year. In many of the schools | there were exercises which put all the children on the keenest sort of edge for the season, which is es- sentially the season of childhood. Indications are that the celebra- tion will be as general ‘as ‘the ‘city’ has ever known. Of. course, the, traditional eggnog will be missed in many quarters, but’ theré are homes in which this crisie has been met and provided for. In lots of other homes, too, there will be a super-abundance of toys and turkey where there was once a super-abun- dance of the most essential compo- nent part of the famous Yuletide potation. In the general jollification of the Season the real significance of the day will not be forgotten. In many Atlanta churches there will be spe- cial services Christmas morning, while all of the houses of worship have been decorated’ in honor of the Christian world’s most impar- tant day. A number of organiza- tions have arranged for the einging of old-time carols of praise, and Sunday practically every church will have a special musical: program. Stores to Clese. The season, too, will not be one of horror for those who ‘serve’ the gift-givers as it once was in At- lanta. Every one of the big depart- ment storea will close ‘their ‘doors promptly at 6:30 o’clock Friday night in order that all their em- ployees may have a chance to rest ‘ in the city.

An amendment adding sugar to the list of tariff protected products was introducea by Senator Gay, democrat, Louisiana, who in a brief speech declared that Loulsiana Sugar planters were attempting to sell their products below cost of Production and “facing bankruptcy.” They are as much entitled to re- lief, Senator Gay declared, as pro- ducers of wheat, wool and other products. Senator Gay’s amendment proposed a sliding tariff scale suf- ficient to hold raw sugar to a ‘max-~- imum of 8 cents a pound. Consideration Due. ‘ “Lovisiana sugar growers pmnt- ed their usyal acreage and paid high prices for labor and material,” ‘He said. “They have not been the ben- eficiaries of high sugar prices. Speculators and middlemen got con- trol and boosted prices. It is un- fortunate that they were not prop- erly prosecuted, “If producers of wheat, wool and other products are entitled to tariff protection surely the sugar’ pro~ ducer is entitled to equal considera- tion.” . ' SHARGED, 10 FV Five Manufacturers Ac- cused of Price-Fixing and Collusion at “Build- ing Trust” Hearing. New York, December 23.—Five manufacturing concerns controlling over 95 per cent of America’s White lead output, principal ingredient of. ‘paint, were accused of collusion and price fixing today in New ‘York's “building trust” inquiry. The capital stock of these corpo- rations approaches $400,000,000 ‘and | the joint legislative committee con-., ducting the inquiry into the alleged building trust was told in today’s testimony that they maintained equal prices and exchanged infor- mation regarding quotations. and names of customers. This “revelation” came ‘to ‘the committee from Charles F. Tuttle, secretary of the American Institute of Lead Manufacturers. the associa- tion throtgh’ which the companies “exchanged price dadta and. other information.” Cerporations Named. . The corporations he named were the Sherwin-Williams company, Na- tional Lead company, E. IL D de Nemours company and Hammer Bros... the last named the owner of the Eagle Pitcher company of Chi- 1ifth member of the group. They operate plants throughout the country. SMmuel Untermyer, committee cougsei, charged that the institution was”’“rock-ribbed combination,” and suggested that a good name for it wee d be the “lead pipe white lead cinch.” After being informed that next to white lead the principal component of all paints is linseed oil, Mr. Un- termyer intimated he would “un- earth collusion” among the manu- facturers of that product when the committee resumes its sessions next Tuesday. Manufacturers Crumple. Another organization of manu- f-cturers of building materials, cast iron pipe in this instance, crumpled up today under the attack of the investigators. The Eastern = Soi! Pipe anufacturing association, of which Mr. Tuttle is also secretary, promised through him to dissolve within a week. He sald the mem- bers would immediately open competition. With the coming of the new year, the warfare against alleged combi- nation in the “building trust” which the joint legislative committee has been conducting for more than two months, will be augmented by the United States senate committee on reconstruction and production to come here from Washington to con- duct investigation into building “combines” along national lines. Members of the legislative eom- mittee expressed the belief today that the two groups would sit joint- ly next month. Mr. Untermyer, who is expected to act as joint counsel for the committees, expressed satis- faction that the testimony heard to- day concerning the white lead trade expored “a perfect price-fixing case.” He said the evidence would o turned over to federal awthori- es. : re-enter Steel Man Arrested. Robert J. Foster, chief investiga- tor for the National Stee] Erectors’ ation, was arrested tonight on two indictments and held in $2,000 1. One indictment charges that on December 16, whe na witness before the cog committee, Foster wilfully refused to testify, and the other, that on the same date he re- fused to produce books, papers and documents in his possession. In one of the indictments, it is al- leged, the National Steel Erectors’ association annually erected or con- trolled erection of two-thirds of the structural steel for poses throughout the of Flame Reach for Prey; Mean New Loans. in Vain. Galveston, Texas, December 23.— Damage tentatively Placed at $400,000 resulted here this afternoon when a fire spread by an explosion aboard the oil barge Boiikow swept a portion of the Southern Pacific docks. Three men are known to be dead and two injured. The Bolikow was a total loss, while the steam- ships El Occidente, Aschenborg and Hastnai sustained damage from the Part of the docks on both sides of the ship in which the ves- sels were berthed burned, as also did a grain elevator conveyor. | Captain Wallace Mackenzie, mas- ter of the British steamship Aschen- borg, brought his vessel safely through a blazing inferno. With the fire licking at his vessel from both sides and a wall of flame ris-. ing from the oil-covered water, Cap- tain Mackenzie, crouched on the bridge of his vessel, one hand on the wheel and the other on his en- gine room controllers, poked the Aschenborg safely through the fire ‘and into the channel. The damage to El Occidente was not obtainable tonight, but it was Officially announced that the Hast- nai suffered only slight damage to her superstructure. LEGION PROTESTS MENNONITE MOVE _.TOQ AMERICAN SOIL Jackson, Miss, December 23,—The Mississippi division of the Amer!- can Legion today telegraphed prvu- tests to the state department and Senator «Harrison against the pro- posed migration of 40,000 Mennon- ites from the province of Manitoba to southern Mississippi. « The message to the state depart- ment quotes resolutions adopted at the last annual reunion and indorsed by 1° national organization, in which the proposed coming of the Mennonites - was opposed on the ground “that they are undesirables.” The message requests the state department to “take such steps as may be necessary to prevent these flames. uPont Ménnonites from crossing the Amer- ican border.” The resolutions quoted state “that the Mennonites were conscientious ebjeotors during the war; that they stayed at home while Canada was being bled white in the trenches of France; that they teach only the German language in their schools and in many other respects are un- fit to live on American soil” GENERAL PERSHING MAY. BE MARSHAL INAUGURAL PARADE December 23.—Gen- eral Pershing may act as grand marshal of the inaugural parade March 4, it was started today in con- nection. with plans of the commit- tee in charge of the ceremonies. The officer has been selected as chairman of the military commit- tee which will direct the parade. Major General Hugh L. Scott, then chief. of staff, acted as grand marshal of the 1917 inaugural pa- rade. Midnight Milk Thief Undoubtedly Shocked; Racket Was Territic Raleigh, N. C., Senthien 28.—A thief has been sneaking into the barn at night and milking a cow owned by a Johnson county |\farmer. The planter determined to put an end to the culprit’s depfe- dations. A few days ago the cow was transferred from her regular stall and a young mule was sub- stituted. Severg@l nights ago the farmer was aroused by a terrific racket in the vicinity of the stable. The planter grabbed his shotgun and ran to the barn, but the thief had escaped, leaving a battered milk pail, a small stool and a hat in the mule’s stall. The visits of the intruder have ceased. Much Water Drinking Blamed for Disease That Troubled Pilgrims Boston, December 23.—“Much drinking of water” was considered by Governor William Bradford, of Plymouth, a contributory cause of the ravages of disease and shortness of life that afflicted the Pilgrims in the early days, Horace H. Morse, head of the historical de- partment at Mount Hermon -school, told the Bostonin society at a meet- Washington, United States, rand ing last night, | 'claring that the government faces a Washington, December 23.—De- gross deficit of $2,100,000,000 for the current fiscal year, Secretary Houston today warned the senate finance committee that congress should avoid putting a heavier bur- den on the treasury department. The estimate came as a surprise to the senate, as it was nearly $1,000,- 000,000 greater than that recently estimated by Senator McCumber, North Dakota, one of its members. For the fiscal year ending June $0, 1922, the treasury head estimated the deficit would be a,proximately $1,500,000,000,- and he aded that it could he seen that new sources of revenue must be sought to meet , even current requirements. ; Bonus Bill. Mr. Hicuston was called before the committee to discuss the soldiers’ bonus bill which, according to esti- mates, would require an outlay of $1,500,000,000, and he indicated that the treasury would oppose any ac- tion by congress that would tend to open a new drain qn the treasury. The secretary also reiterated his objections to the revival of the war finance corporation. It would mean, he said, that the treasury would be compelled to launch a new program of borrowing. The committee was unable to com- plte its work today and asked Mr. Houston to return for further tes- timony Monday. GRIME 1S CHECKED _ BY POLICE DRIVE No Unusual Disorder Re- ported on Thursday. Two Local Churches Are Robbed on Wednesday Night. : ™, The efficacy of the police depart- ment’s campaign against highway robberies, burglaries and safe-blow- ings, whic. have kept citiens and pectation and fear for the last sev- eral days, is attested by the fact that, Thursday night, ‘practically no unusual disorder was noticeable or reported to the department. Customary minor violations—such as drunk fights, etc. showed no increase in number. Orders issued by Chjef of Police James L. Beavers to/ his\ men to “shoot and shoot to kill,” and the augmentation of the evening watch by fifty plainclothes men, together with the aid and vigilance of the citizen police force, had its effect upon thugs and thieves about the city, in that it commanded their consideration and aroused fear within their souls. The number of men on podalice duty was doubled Friday, in ac- cordance with an order issued Thursday evening by Chief of Po- lice James lL. Beavers. Doubled watches will remain on duty until 12 o’clock on the night of Sunday, December 26. The increase in the deal with the Christmas emergency, Chief Beavers states. Watch Hours Sunday. The following watcn hours will be observed Sunday: The day watch will be on duty from 8 a. -m. to 8 Pp. m.; the evening watch from 2 Pp m. to 12 p. m.; watch from 10 p. m. to 8 a. m.

Boykin unless he puts an end to war .on gaming crooks received since he began his activities against the gigantic swin- dle ring operating in Atlanta, and carried by the United States mails, have given the Fulton county in- quiry a federal aspect. The threat was received in an anonymous communication. Though the solicitor general regards it lightly, operatives of his office do not and they are making every ef- fort with the co-operation of post- acs inspectors to trace the writ- r. business of Atlanta in constant ex-.: watch was made with a view to the morning the , — « ? | This Is The Last Day | | | Men, already under indictment in the general probe of the swindling Situation, have court records as kill- ers, and it is this fact that causes Some alarm among Mr. Bokyin's as- sociates. On the other hand, the solicitor general doesn’t take the threat se- riously. He is inclined to the belief that it is the work of the customary crank, who always writes anony- mous threats during the period of interest in any widespread investi- gation. Another Bank Raid. Another raid on a safety deposit vault by the solicitor general, in which 41,200 in cash was confiscat- ed, was an outstanding feature of Thursday in the gambling probe. Additional complaints from vic- tims of the wire-tapping syndicate have been received by the solicitor and new addresses where the gang operated have been unearthed. In the raid made Thursday after- noon on a safety vault in a local bank, the solicitor refused to di- vulge the name in which the de- posit was mhade, but stated that the money had been secured by mem- bers of the gang in.illegal opera- tions. The sum of $8,000 was taken in @, savings .account of “Jack- knife” O’Brien, by the solicitor Wednesday. : It became known Thursday that the investigation has now reached the climax, or would reach it upon the reconvening of the grand jury on Monday, December 27. Dukes: Ring Vietim. Information ‘received Thursday was that C. C. Dukes, president of the’ Farmers and Merchants’ Bank of Miffn, Ga., who disappeared from a local hotel in: November, 1918, was the victim of the wire-tappers. In a hurried flight from the hotel, Dukes left his coat and watch, and a later investigation of the affairs of the Milan bank showed a deficit of $45,000, it is said. This short- age was later made/good by rela- tives of Dukes. No trace of the missing banker has ever been found, despite a nation-wide hunt for him. Additional evidence which tends to throw a new light on the killing of Ed Mills by Floyd Woodward, Who obtained his release In a pre- liminary hearing in police court on a plea of self-defense, was put in the hands of the solicitor Thursday by a new witness. According to the information given, the witness over- heard a conversation between Wood- ward and other members of the syndicate on the morning before Mills was slain. He declared Wood- ward made this remark: “Daylight will be darkness for him in the morning.” Mills was shct *o death that night by Woodward. Among the disclosures Thursday Centinued on Page ¥, Column 1. gating capte communications over, the question of whether the.e !s a) British censorship of cable mes-| sages to the United States originat- | ing in the British Isles. Washington, December 23.—The question of exchange and ability to get credits will determine largely | The department’s action was re- garded as a rebunke to the embassy for sending direct to Senator Kel- logg, chairman of the committe, a letter denying the Aestimony of Newcomb Carlton, president of the Western Union Telegraph company, that cable messages coming to the United States from Great Britain were subject to delay and examina- tion by the British naval intellf- gence authorities. Action Not Liked. The embassy’s action is wunder- stood to be regarded by the de- partment as a breach of diplomatic courtesy. The department will take the subject matter of the corre- spondence up directly with the em- bassy, but whether it will ask for an explanation of the action of the embassy in writing directly to the senator has not yet been indicated. A somewhat similar incident oc- curred recently, Dr. Julio Bianchl, the Guatemalian minister, dealing directly with Senator Moses, of New Hampshire, regarding a resolution the senator had introduced. In that instance the department asked for an explanation, and it was received from Dr. Bianchi what has been described an “an explanation and an apology.” Asks Inquiry. Senator Kellogg said today that in referring the matter to the state department-he had acted on the ad- vice of Fred K. Nielsen, solicitor of the department. With his letter to Acting Secretary Davis, the senator transmitted a copy of the letter re- ceived from the Britig¢gh embassy and also copies of the transcript of the testimony of Mr. Carlton and of John Goldhammer, secretary of the Commercial Cable company. charg- ing that the British censors re- quired submission of all cable mes- sages. Senator Kellogg said that in view of these positive statements that a British censorship existed, he was asking the state department to in- quire from the British embasy, de- spite its letter of denial, whether it was true that a censorship existed. $50,000 IN BONDS, STOLEN FROM BANK, ARE RECOVERED Nashville, Tenn., De@émber 23.— Stock certificates and securities to the amount of $50,000 which were stolen from the Birst National bank of Smyrna, Tenn., on the aight of December 13, were recovered, today by local police officers through in- formation received by the chief of police here. The bonds were found by Luther Ellis, a farmer, living about four miles South of Ashland City, Tenn.,| in the Cumberland river imbedded in a gravel bar. Mr. Ellis notified a friend of his, who in turn noti- fied the police of this city and of- ficers were immediately sent down to take possession of the papers. W. V. Smit, president of the Smyrna bank, came to Nashville tonight and signed a receipt for the papers at the local police headquar- ters for $50,000. The bonds had been stolen from the bank when safe breakers entered the Smyrna bank and got away with many val- uable papers. — ——— Final Appeal Is Issued For Ten “Opportunities”’ Day Before Christmas /Full-Hearted and Generous Response N ec- essary Today to Raise Lacking $1,000 For City’s Neediest Families. Full-hearted and generous response during the few hours that intervene between now and Christmas morning will insure a happy year during 1921 for the ten neediest families of Atlanta but a failure to respond more readily than on Thursday, when only about $100 was. raised, will mean that the visitors of the Associated Charities will not have the messages of cheer they wish to deliver when they make their Christmas morning calls on these needy homes. | } There could be no finer present for the members of these families on Saturday morning than to hear from the lps of an Associated Charities visitor that good Atlan- tans, through their generous con- tributions, had provided enough to supplement the small incomes and insure what to them is real com- fort for another year.

American consular agents said a report which was transmitted to- day to the senate py President Wil- son. in ' The reports were gathered last summer in response to a sénate res- Olution asking for the amount of cotton which will be needed during the year, the reports of the consuls covering the perfod generally from August 31, 1920, to August 31, 1921. Between 600.000 and 700,000 bales of cotton will be needed by Ger- many for the year ending August 31, 1921, the American consular agent at Berlin estimated. German Situation. Germany is operating betwee one-third and one-half of her 10.,- 000,000 spindles and the market is short of the better grades of the cotton and the short fibred low- grade cotton for which there has been considerable demand and has been largely of East Indian pro- duction. Germiany before the war consum- ed about 1,800,000 bales of American cotton, annually, he sald. “The quéstion of the extension of the sales of American cotton in Germany is a matter of credit,” he asserted... The Germans require six months credit, the report added, and while proposals have been put for- ward for those furnishing the raw product to take the {inished prod- uct in payment this has not got any- where bét¢ausé a German law for- bids a eréditor to hold a’ lett on material furmighe@ to a mill under such terms, Belgium Needs 150,000 Bales. Belgium .needs for the year are estimated between 50,000 and 150,- Her demands are con- fined to high-grade staples of one- inch to one and one-eighth inches in length, the report added. Greece’s requirements were esti- mated at about 26,000 bales, and that country produces a quantity of cotton similar to American mid- dling of seven-eighths inches in length. Spain’s requirements were placed at 330,000 bales, with the statement that the amount of Indian cotton imports probably would be reduced owlng to exchange conditions. France Is Recovering. The consul at Havre reported France's textile industry rapidly re- covering from the war and her im- ports of American cotton placed at 695,000 bales as against about 1,- 000,000 prior to the war. Holland was reported as largely increasing her warehouse space and manufacturing facilities with a View of increasing the imports of American cotton which she intended to manufacture and sell the manu- factured goods to Germany.

FRIDAY, ‘DECEMBER ER 24, 1920. yhortage Boosts °Purke y Prices ~ In Local Market What’s the difference between Christmas turkey and cotton? : Just 46.25 cents per pound!!!

The reason? on the other end of the market see- saw when cotton went down, and they flew an added bit higher as Christmas came nearer. # There are practically no gobblers to be had in town, and hens are scarce. The wholesalers and retail- ers predict that the bird will be extoinct in Atlanta by night. This morning they are selling at 60 cehts per pound, retail, and 40 to 45 cents, wholesale. It makes no difference in price, whether the bird walks to you upon his own feet or arrives after visiting the guillotine. Those few turkeys which missed their calling last Christmas and have occupied berths in cold storage awaiting the anniversary of their deaths, can be had at a few cents less per pound.

Within a few ‘days after Thanks- giving, the bottom suddenly dropped from the marketon turkey and all poultry. With the . approach of Christmas, retail merchants through- out the city have suddenly discov- ered that farmers have stopped shipping their goodsinto town, and this, they say, entails a great short- age of turkeys, geese and chickens, with reusltant boosts in the price of Christmas birds. Cranberries are quoted at 20 cents a quart, which is said to be compar- atively cheap. The supply of celery and lettuce has also failed to suffer from the Christmas shortage~men- tioned by retailers on Produce Row. There are plentiful supplies of fruits and nuts, but bell peppers, it is said, are almost impossible to se- cure.

Elevator Man Crushed To Death Wednesday In Savannah Building Savannah, Ga., December 23.— (Special.)—Elijah Waits, a colored man 65 years old, elevator man for the Haverty Furniture company for nearly twenty years, met a horrible death last night in his elevator car. He had stooped to pick up his cap, it is presumed, and as the car rose his head was caught and almost entirely severed from his shoul- ders. No one was in the car at the time, and it was half an hour be- fore it could be reached and the mangled remains removed.

URGES STIMULATION OF EXPORT BUSINESS Reduction in Taxes, Econ- omy of Government and Reduced Armaments Suggested. New York, Decemebr 23.—(Spe- cial.)—In a statement issued today, William G. McAdoo, former secreta- ry of the treasury, strongly advo- cates extension of liberal credits to agricultural interests immediately. He also urges early resumption of trade with Russia, reduction -in taxes, reduced expeditures for the army and navy and other economy features: Mr. McAdoo’s stateemnt is as fol- lows: As I see the situation, the country can- not look with indifference upon the distress- ing eituation in which the farmers find themselves because of the tremendous shrinkage in the value of agriculturai prod- ucts. We cannot excuse inaction pe dis- miss the matter with a mere observation ers must take their medicine along with the rest of the age i The farm industry is basic to the life of the nation, and pos- sesses a superior claim to consideration, not alone because its prosperity ig our best protection, but also because the farmer, by the very nature of his business, is more ex- posed to adverse influences and has less protection against them than any other class. The bulk of his crop matures at the same time and if forced upon the market all at once or in a short period he may not realize even the cost of production, Deflation Necessaryr Of course, prices in the United States could not be ke spt permanently on an inflat- ed and artificial basis. Deflation was necessary and inevitable, but the processes of deflation are frequently more dangerous than the processes of inflation. For this very reason the readjustments through which all industry and business are now go- ing must be dealt with intelligently, and eased in every reasonable way. I am frank to say that I think that the policies thus far pursued with respect to credits have been too drastic, but whether or not I am right, I am sure that the sit- uation should now be reviewed in the light of existing conditions. A more liberal pol- icy about credits should be put into effect immediately. I think-that the reserve bank rates could be prudently reduced, and that member banks could be safely encouraged to make loans on agricultural products and to business generally on reasonable time to those who can give adequate security and that the whole situation would be bene- ficially affected by this procedure. Credit Wanting, In many parts of the country, especially in the agricultural districts, credit is al- most entirely wanting and in many lines of legitimate business and industry’ great losses are being sustained because of the restriction of credits. We should make every effort to stimulate and enlarge our export trade. This ig es- pecially important to the farmers because approximately 50 per cent of our export trade represents agricultural products, Fu- rupean nations desire our cotton, grain and other products, but have no credit. It is to our interest to supply that credit. I therefore think that the revival of the War Finance corporation jis highly desirable. Il te sod that it can exercise an immensely beveficial influence upon the export trade it is operated on a sound and liberal scale, Il have long been convinced that we ought to re-establish trade relations with Russia. It is not necessary to recognize the soviet government to do this. Why should we refuse to let people in distress in Russia or elsewhere buy our products, if they can pay for them, no matter what form of gov- ernment they Inay choose for themselves? We have always stood for the right of peo- ples to determine their own form of gov- ernment and I must say that I have never been able to see any reason for our stand that we must not trade with Russia because we do not like or do not recognize her existing government. Should Reduce Taxes. Of course, taxes ought to be readjusted and reduc ed. Last March I publicly advo- ceted funding a large part of our floating debt. This could be done, and should be done, so that its pressure may be taken off of the American people, and especially off of business at this time of unavoidable readjustment. The congress should address itself unspar- ingly to economy in expenditures. Genuine economies can be effected by intelligent in- vestigation and legislation. The responsibil- ity, however, rests upon the congress itself, ause it controls the purse strings and, therefore. hae the nower to limit expendi- Among Other Remedies EX PRESIDENT if TALKS WITH HARDING League of Nations Under- stood to Have Featured Conference. Marion, Ohio, December 23.—Wil- liam H. Taft and Warren G. Har- ding conferred here Thursday, their first meeting since Harding was merely a dark horse candidate about to go before the Chicago convention. Taft's mission, it was understood, that deflation is necessary, and that farm- ' | was to stress the importance, as he sees it, of preserving portions of the league of nations as the frame- work of the association proposed by Harding. Taft speaks as leader of the republican group, including for- mer Attorney General Wickersham, who favored the Wileon league. They also talked over the chief justiceship of the supreme court from which Chief Justice White is expected to resign soon after Har- dinge’s inauguration. Taft is report- ed to be willing to take the post if offered it. GANTT TO BRING TEARS TO EYES OF BOOTLEGGERS At 12 o’clock Friday one of the most. spirited Christmas parties ever held in this city will be staged by D. J. Gantt, supervising federal prohibition agent. Guests will in- clude the city’s most prominent bootleggers, whgq have been given speciai invitations. Persons from all walks of life will attend. The affair will be held iin front of the posotffice buiding. The party will consist of the pouring ont of 1,000 gallon sof pure moonshine corn whisky which has accumulated from various raids made by members of the federal prohibi- tion department. The whisky is in containers ranging from half pint bottles to 20-gallon tanks. Agent George M. Hicks will be the offi- cial peurer. MILLS IS ARRESTED BY CITY DETECTIVES E. H. Mills, of 74 East Hunter street, is in police station under ar- rest in connection with charges of larceny after trust. The charge against him is a blanket one of sus- Ppicion, pending further investiga- tion into his operations. According to arresting officers they received complaint that Mills, who works for a grocery concern, had delivered one bag of nuts 6hort to another grocery company. Mills and the bag of nuts were brought to headquarters, where both were held—the nuts for the owner, and Mills under a charge of suspicion. RUSSIAN COMMUNISTS SAY LONG FAREWELL New York, December 2—Twenty- four confessed Russian communists, with the demeanor of pleasure tour- ists, were deportation passengers on the steamship Imperator sailing to- day for England, where thev will be re-shipped on the second leg of their long journev to Russia. The deportees, who were rounded up in raids last winter, and had been at liberty on bail, allowed by Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of labor, surrendered yesterday. tures, The congress should no longer make gifts or authorize loans directly from the public treasury to any class or business in this country. I refer particularly to the gift of $654,000,000 made by the present congress to the railroad corporations and t» the three hundred million dollars which the present congress directed the treasury to lend to railroad corpogations at 6 per cent interest. Why should the people of the United States be taxed to make gifts and loans to railroad companies, aggregat- ing $954,000,000, When we are already over- burdened with taxes for purposes which we cannot escape? There is no justification for policies like these. Reduce Armaments. The only way to effectively reduce our tax bill is to cut down our army and navy appropriations, If we had joined the league of nations, that promised the most imme- diate and succ way of reducing arma- ments with safety te all nations concerned. jut since we have not joined the league I think Senator Borah’s suggestions for an inm- médiate agreement with England and Japan for a limitation of naval expenditures is vai- table and that such an agreement ought to be reached, if possible. I am opposed to increased taxes on mod- erate incomes. Already these incomes arv is Justifi To sum up, I should say that a more lib eral policy about domestic credits ought now to be pursued; that our’ foreign trade should be stimulated and enlarged; that+the War Finance corporation should be revived to assist it: that the rman indemnity should be defined as quickly as possible so that the central European markets may be opened to our farmers, manufacturers and business men; that trade relations with Rus- sia should be resumed as promptly as pos- sible; that a large part of the floating debt of the treasury should be funded; and that taxation ought to be reduced and read- justed at this session of the congress. If these steps are taken promptly I he- lieve that they will greatly relieve the y nresert diatresaine sitnation. A pair 1,000 Pairs Ladies Felt SLIPPERS Values to $2.50 while they last.

No Mail Orders "|Another A lleged Poison Case Up In Macon Courts Macon, Ga., December 23.—(Spe- eial.)—Another alleged poisoning case came before Judge H. A. Math- ews in Bibb superior court today when Dr. M. C. Mitchell, a negro physician of Macon, applied for bail. Dr. Mitchell is now held in the Bibb county jail on a charge of mur- dering his nephew, Henry C. Mitch- ell, on whose life he held insurance policies in the sum of $24,000, of which $10,000 was in government insurance. Affidavits were introduced today by the defense and affidavits in rebuttal will be filed by Solicitor Charles H.

The entire mem- bership of the club, 150 strong, was zealously at work, with the sup- a, of the entire citizenship of the city. It was a most unique affair. There were beautifully hand-made lingerie, artistically woven baskets, daintily dressed dolls, delicious home-made candies, cakes of all kinds, preserves and jellies, a boun- tiful supply of tea and sandwiches, a bachelor’s booth, where only things masculine could be had from Seven o’clock was the hour for the opening of the carnival, and no carnival scene was ever more attractive or successful. The par- ticipants were the high school and grammar school boys and girls, singing Christmas carols, forming with colored ribbons the Rotarian and Knights of Pythias emblems. Miss Ferguson was the central fig- ure in a most attractive fancy dances representing a golden chrys- anthemum. \ The old photographs of West Point and her citizens was one of the most interesting features. This was under the splendid direction of Mrs. Sydney M. Fuller. an’s club suggested a bazar-car- nival to raise some very much-need- ed funds... But it was done, and instead of stopping at the few hun- dred dollars asked for by Mrs. Clar- ence Hudman, chairman, $1,000 was soon in sight and the clever citi- zens of West Point, appr .ciating the good work the happy workers had done, finally smiled and an- nounced $1,215.05 net. “My Lady Nicotine” to a pair of silk socks.

There was an old- fashioned spinning wheel.” whlich had done noble service during ante- bellum days, which was kept hum- ming all day under the skilful art! of an old black mammy. An exciting guessing contest was over the number of pounds in a of the club. Rev. J. A. Denham and J. E. Laudermilk were the win- fers, guessing that it weighed 3.,- 100 pounds. Another guessing con- test was held in which Morris Dar- den won the Sheffield silver bas- ket containing 1,152 pieces of can- dy. And stil] another was the gro- cery guessing contest in which Mrs. . M. Scott, Miss Phil Davison and Louis Askew were the winners of the 27 articles in the ba&Sket.* A baby Arghan was auctioned off to Horace. Lanier. No one guessed the doll’s name— “Mary Roberts Rinehart’—and it was sold to Lafayette Lanier, the highest bidder. He was also the winner of the Roper rooster, which he tendered to Rev. S. P. Spiegel.

Miss Wilhelmina Drummond, of Atlanta, returned home Thursday after more than two years’ service in Europe, first at the head of. the Ford section of an ambulance unit attached to the Sixth French army, and then in charge of transporta- tion with the Virginia hospital unit organized by Dr. Rosalie Morton for relief work in Serbia. She comes back laden with decora- tions and interesting experiences, and as full of enthusiasm as the day she started from Atlanta in Au- gust, 1918. Her decorations in- clude the Reconnaissance Francaise, the bronze medal given by the French government only for war service; another medal from the people of the district in which she did her relief work in France; the Gold Cross of the Order of St. John from the Serbian government, and the Serbian kineg’s personal decora- tion; the cross of the Order of St. Sava, which was bestowed by the prince regent. In France, where she was the chief of the section of a hospital unit made up of women surgeons, doctors, nurses and drivers, she had under her care eight ambulances and a touring car, and was chief mechanic as well as executive. “T have mended as many as six tires in one afternoon following the army,’ she said, when asked about the nature of her work, “but most of our work was at night, and re- pairs had to be done absolutely in “the dark.” And Miss Drummond is not a sturdy sixfooter. She can hardly weigh more than a hundred pounds, and can claim few inches over five feet. Her eyes are sparkling, how- ever, and fearlessness speaks in her every expression. After France, Miss Drummond was one of two.volunteers in a hos- pital unit going to Serbia t ohelp the Serbs help themselves. “For six months after our arrival there,” continued Miss Drummond, “we had to carry with us absolute- ly everything we needed—food, stores, lights, even matches, and where trains, instead of motor trucks carried us, we traveled in box cars, and did our cooking and all our own work.” Miss Drummond, who is the guest of Miss Mary O’Brien at the Ponce de Leon apartments, leaves Friday to spend the holidays with rela- tives in Forsyth. She will return to Atlanta to reside here. CITY EMBARKS ON HAPPY XMAS EVE Continued From First Page. for the big day to follow or to participate in the hundreds of pub- lic, semi-public and private enter- tainments arranged for the evening. Some of the 5 and 10-cent stores d smaller establishments will re- m&in open until 9:30 o'clock, but thare will be no midnight labor for any Atlanta clerk. itlanta butchers and grocers will se at their usual hour Friday afternoon, and will not open again til Monday morning. Careful OuseWives will see to it that the larder is supplied not only for Christmas day, but for the dav to follow, although there is every indi- cation that there will be a plethora of turkey hash on the Sunday menus of various households. All banks and _ (federal, _§ state, county and city public buildings will be closed Saturday, and courts will not operate at all next week. Most of the state officials have already departed to spend the holidays in their several homes. Specia lHotel Arrangements. Atlanta hotels have made special arrangements to see that the week is not a dull and dreary ohe f-= the passing population ofthecity. Spe- cial menus have been ar -~7ed for Christmas day, and extensive prepa- rations have been made in the big- ger downtown hostelries for the gayest sort of New Year's eve prep- arations. The various theaters and other places of amusement have special programs forthe week, each having a particular Christmas appeal. Social Galeties, Socally, the holiday week will be a long succession of gayety. Clubs will give dances, there wi'l be every form of entertainment in private homes. A list of dinners given dur- ing the week would fill a volume the size of a city directory. From the viewpoint of charity, no Christmas in Atlanta’s history will show a more widespread feeling of the spirit that “to those who hath not, Shall be given.’ Beginning with the Elks’ Christmas tree for the poor children of the city Fri- day afternoon at the Auditorium, practically every fraternal rder and almost every organization in the citv will give special Christmas af- fairs for those who are in want. The churches have not been laggard in this regard. Their charities will be extensive, while every institution in Atlanta will be looked after in the best sort of style. Even those who are not permitted to be free on Christmas day will have some kind of Christmas, Out at the federal] prison there wild be a special dinner, followed by a vaudeville entertainment, while there will be a Christmas tree at the city stockade. County convicts will be the guests of the county commis- Sion at a barbecue dinner. In short, Atlanta is out to have its Christmas, and have it right. Adds a delightful flavor to cooking | ‘“Sweeten tt with Domino’ GIVE ALIFE’ IS XMAS APPEAL OF WORKERS Underwood Tells of Sacri- fice for Europe’s Starv- ing Tots. Instead of giving a Christmas present, why not “give a life?” This is the suggestion advanced to Georgians by E. Marvin Under- wood, chairman of the state com- mittee for the ca.npaign to raise $33,000,00u in America to rescue from starvation 3,500,000 children in central and eastern Europe, who will die unless supplied with food out of America’s abundance. An Atlanta business man who had previously made a substantial gift to the children’s relief fund on yes- terday wrote Chairman Underwood as follows: “Herewith find inclosed my check for $30 additional contribution to the fund. I am giving this money in lieu of Christmas presents to my hephews and nieces. On Christmas morning they will receive a card from me informing them that in their name I have sent their usual gifts in the form of food to stray- ing children in Europe.” This is the spirit manifesting itself throughout the state in the movement to save the lives of a vast army of innocent boys and girls who had no part in the making of the war, but who were left behind in its cruel wake of devastation to bear the bitterest burden of all— the burden of hunger. “As for my part,’ ’said Chairman Underwood yesterday, “I would ra- ther receive a card like those be- ing sent to this Atlanta business man’s nephews and nieces than any other present which would be given me. I know of nothing which could give a man, woman or child a deep- er satisfaction on Christmas morn- Ning than to know they had sacri- ficed a gift to save a child from starving.” It had been the plan of the Geor- gia committee to print for Christ- mas several thousand post cards carrying out the “give a life” idea, but owing to the press of time it was impossible, and the committee is presenting its appeal through the newspapers instead. Municipal League Asks Additional Copies of Charter That Atlanta’s proposed city- manager charter, drafted some time ago, has attracted widespread at- tention, is indicated by the fact that the Atlanta Chamber of Com- merce received a request Thursday for 100 copies of the complete charter, the request coming from the National Municipal league, of which Charles Evans Hughes is president and Frank A. Vandertlip, treasurer, The National Municipal league is an organization which devotes itself to the intensive study of all prob- lems of municipal government and management and has on hand data which is supposed to be the most authoritative in the country on such propositions. The directorate of the organization includes names of leading experts in this line in the nation. Three copies of the proposed At- lanta charter were sent this organi- ation some time ago, and the fact that it has requested a large ad- ditional number of copies is taken as significant of the charter’s de- sirability, especially since officials of this municipal study body have expressed themselves in highly com- Plimentary terms regarding the complete draft. 28 LE HENS NOW IY 27 EGS A DA And This Was in Cold Winter Weather—Plan Is Simple. “I fed Don Sung to my 28 hens that were not laying. But they are laying now. I receive as high as 27 eggs a day and never less than 22.” —Mrs. Jennie Davidson, Yates Cen- Kan, Davidson wrote this letter in February. Figure her profit on two dozen eggs a day from hens that “wouldn't lay.” We'll make you e same offer we made her. ere a } Give your hens Don Sung and watch results for one month. If you don’t find that it pays for itself and pays you a good profit besides, sim- ply tell us and your money will be cherfully refunded. Don Sung (Chinese for egg-lay- ing) is a scientific tonic and condi- tioner. It is easily given in the feed, improves the hen’s health and makes her stronger and more ac- tive. It tones up the egg-laying or- gans, and gets the eggs, no mat- ter how cold or wet the weather. Don Sung can be obtained prompt- ly from your druggist or poultry remedy dealer, er send 52c or $1.04 (includes war tax) for a package by mail prepaid.

MACCABEFE ORDER TO ERECT TEMPLE ON FAIR GROUNDS Important features of the meeting of Liberty tent, No. 38, Georgia Knights of the Maccabees, were election of officers for the coming year and discussions of proposed erection of Maccabee temple at or near the ground upon which the world fair of 1925 will be held. It is. stated. such a temple will be erected. Newly elected ficers are: Com- mander, George 5S. Phillips: lieu- tenant commander, J. R. Morgan; record keeper, J. L. Adams; chaplain, Frank Costello: sergeant, Hugh S. Boyd: master at arms, R. C. McDan- iel; first master at guards, R. D. Deadwylee: second master at arms, J. B. Lafitte, Jr.; sentinel, G. S&S. Buchanan; picket, E. B. Riley. Past State Commander M. D. Gleason was present and installed the officers. B. Lafitte, Sr., deputy state commander, says that opinion among members is divided upon whether or not a permanent or a temporary temple shall be erected at the fair grounds. Many are of the opinion that it would be to the advantage of the order to erect a permanent temple costing about $30,000, while others favor a temporary structure to cost $10,000. A series of entertainments will be given by the order shortly after the beginning of the new year with a view to securing funds for the erection of a temple. MORTUARY Mrs. Golfe G. Mpenia. .

Bailey, of Atlanta, and Joe White, of Tuscaloosa, Ala. I’m not much given to saying things in ad- vance about fights, but in this par- ticular case I’m willing to go on record by stating that I expect te eee a ¢lash that will make blase folks like Oscar Keeler, Mr. Fairfax Montague and some of the rest who have been seeing fights since time 'mmemorial, stand on their chairs and whoop. Both are southern boys, born and raised. Both have demonstrated that they are easily the best heavy- weight aspirants in their particular heck of the woods. Both are am- tious. There the similarity ends. Bailey is a product of the prize ring. White is the manufactured product of the e7mnaety m. It's going .to be mighty nteresting to watch the methods of the two schools. Everybody in Atlanta knows Bailey’s ring history. He boxed arbund here for several years as a ham’and egger, but never achieevd anything until he, enlisted in the navy. The gobs made a real. fighter out of him, and sihce his re-én- trance into the Atlanta ring he has in his class here. youngster who, big, strong got it into his noodle years ago, that he could fight. away from home or anything else romantic, to begin his ring career. He simply told his father. The old man agreed to permit him to follow a pugilistic career if he would first discover whether he had anything or not. Pater White put og the jack and sent Joe down to ontgomery and put him in charge of a big Italian named John Piombo, who used to beasparring partner of Gunboat Smith, and who is a pretty mussy fellow himself. Piombo worked with White for six months, and then the big fellow started out on a modest campairn. Up to the present he has stopped his opponents in his every fight,-and such shrewd judges of fighters as Nate Lewis beeve that ultimately Joe will reach the championship. Anyhow, he will .find a worth~e foeman to dispute his progress in Bailey. And anyhow, Atlanta ought to see a real scrap. FULTON HIGH GIRLS BEATEN BY BUFORD HI BY J. C. FIFE, JR. After reigning sypreme for four years in the girls’ basketball league, the Fulton High girls have at last fallen. Thursday afternoon they were @gcisively trounced by the Buford High girls” team, 36 to 1. Every champion will fall sooner or later and the fall of the Fulton High girls’ team was not unex- peoted. This year when Coach Moore sounded the first call for basketball practice not a single ember of the 1920 team responded. At the first ¢all more than 25 girls desirous of playing the great indoor game answered. They have been hard at work, but judging from the result of the above men- tioned game they need a great deal more. Lagt year the Fultonites had one of the best teams in the history of the school, and it is doubtful if there will ever be another girls’ team of the same strength. On the team last year were such fine players as Captain Irances Phillips and Dorris Walker, guards, now playing with the Draughon’s Business College team. Miss Ruth Williams, center, who played the ‘20 basketball season at Wesleyan college, in Macon, where she was Sthe captain of the freshman team. * The forward positions were in the “) y the year. sis “Who will win the 1921 cham-'! , most complete for the necessities > 4 capable hands of Cornelia Proctor and Clara Neville. All five of these stellar players have graduated and they will nayer be again seen play- ing under the colors of the Fulton- ites. : The race for the title in the girls’ league this year will be between Marietta, Decatur High and possibly Kirkwood and East Point. The chances are that the (first two named will be the teams who will be found around the top when the season draws to a closé. The Ma- rietta girls have their entire team of 1920 back in the harness and with the added year of experience they should set the woods afire. Last year it was all that the Ful- tonites could do to get a victory over them. Decatur High has two of their last year’s team ,back in the game, and under the expert coaching of Fred Saunders and Tielding Dillard they should de- velop into a fine quintet. The other teams in the league have been practicing at a hard clip and they are about ready for the opening of the seson. All the teams have stopped basketball work for the Christmas holidays, and they will get back to work the first of The question of the hour ‘pionship?” Ex-Champion Sails To Meet Wilde in Twenty-Round Go New York, December 23.—Pete Herman. of New Orleans, who lost his title as world’s bantamweight boxing champion last night to Joe I.ynch, of this city, was a passenger today on the steamship Imperator sailing for England.

DROPPED BY | | | VANDERBILT NasShVille, Tenn., December 23,— (SpeciaL)—Vanderbilt has cut her Christmas basketball trip to two Sames, contrary to the usual cus- dom of playing a game every day during the stretch of holidays, from the day after Christmas to the re- sumption of echolastic duties fol- lowing New Year’s. This season the customary schedule was ar- ranged, but games in New Orleans, Montgomery, Bay St. Louis and At- lanta were cancelled and the Com- modores will go to Memphis and Birmingham only. At the former Place they will tie up with the Memphis Y. M. C. A., and at Bir- mingham they will encounter the crack five from the Birmingham Athletic club. Returning to Nashville, the Com- modores will meet the, University of Michigan quintet on New Year's day and will subsequently take on a number of the leading fives from the north and middle west, includ- ing the Illinois Athletic club, De- trolit Y. M. C. A. apd others. The Commodores have shown the loss of Cody, Zerfess, Norton and Adams much more than was at firet thought and Coach Tommy Zer- fess has his hands full in turning out a representative quintet to wear the Gold ‘and Black.

The Old Days. What would a boy of today say if were suddenly thrust back a century, and instead of “prep” school and athletics, he would be an apprentice? Only a little over a hundred vears ago the boy who started as an apprentice could not leave his job or run away without serious penal- ties. In fact, every justice of the peace, every constable was expect- ed to arrest him, and anyone har- boring him was liable to a fine for each day’s entertainment or con- cealment of him, and officers of the | law could “impress horses, boats or | Pinnaces at public charge to pursue | such person by sea and land and bring him back by force of arms.” Moreover, his boss was empowered | to punish him*severely just the same as a stern father would have done. i ——— JP ~ Tomorrow Alright Get a25*° Box .
