■“—I mmm ■ — THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. FRIDAY. ATT.rST 31. ir*. CITY COUNCIL URGED TO TAKE HAND AGAINST STREET CAR COMPANY Claim Is Made That White People Are Be ing Crowded Off Cars By Negroes. Claiming that white people are be ing crowded off the atreet care by ne groes, that the cars are not being run on schedule time, that the Georgia Railway and Electric Company offi cials arc not complying with the state laws and aro doing nothing to better matters, James F, Saunders, 62 Lake avenue, along with a number of other citizens living In the neighborhood of Lake avenue, has petitioned council to take a hand in the deplorable state of things and make the railway com pany mark off the cars. The petition commences with sped- tying the lines on which the cars are In a bad state of disrepair, giving the Pittsburg and Irwin street routes In particular, then comments on the seat ing arrangement. Then It continues by stating that in the afternoon the negro baseball players and negro "fans'* crowd the cars to the exclusion of the white peo ple, and when there is no room in the back of the cars crowd'to the front, taking seats with the white people and necessitating the whites to stand or get off the cars entirely. The petition claims that Mrs. J. F. Saunders was recently crowded off a car by negroes gaming from church. The negroes took possession of.the car at the corner of Houston and Pied mont streets, so it is stated. It is claimed that the Irwin street cars are off schedule about three days out of tho week, and that when the officials are appealed to It is claimed by them that there has been a breakdown or a car has left the tracks for the smooth er traveling surface of the cobble stones. The names of some of those mention ed in the petition follow: Mr. Cobb, 5 Lake avenue; A. C. Brooks, 85 Lake avenue: .Mr. Haynes, Irwin street, between Hilliard and Jackson; Fred Morris, in Hall street. It is also claimed that President Arkwright promised to rebuild the Ir win street line several months ago, but (hat nothing has been done along this line. The petition will come up before council at the meeting next week. RUSS WOMEN GO WITH SWEETHEARTS INTO OARK SIBERA Special Cable—Copyright.

I don't know what steps to take.” Mr. Fortner «u referred to Proba tion Onicer Glocr for advice about his eon.
