NEW LEASE CONTRACT
FOR W. & A. HAS ABOUT

(Continued From Page 1.)
appears likely, agree to double track the
road during the i»eriod of the lease.
M E.MHERS OITIM IBTIC.
It was quite evident Thursday that
the members of the commission were
better pleased with the situation than
they have heretofore been, tor all of
them appeared more optimistic. How
ever. none of them would make any
statement whatever concerning the ne
gotiations. and the railroad officials were
just as reluctant to talk.
hTe railroad officials who are in at
tendance upon the conferences are Harry
Walters, chairman of the board of di
rectors of the Atlantic. Coast Line rail
road and also chairman of the board of
the lx>uisville and Nashville railroad;
Milton H. Smith, president of the Louis
ville and Nashville railroad, which con
trols the Nashville. Chattanooga an<j St.
Louis railroad, which in turn is the
present lessee of the Western and At
lantic railroad and which is bidding
for a new lease on the state road; John
Howe Peyton, president of the Nash
ville. Chattanooga and St. Louis: Judge
Claude Waller, general counsel for the
Nashville. Chattanooga and SC. Louis,
•nd John L. Tye, division counsel for
that road.
L, & N, Against Plaza,
Walters Serves Notice
The fact that the Louisville and
Nashville railroad is determined to pre
vent the proposed Atlanta plflza clause
from being incorporated in the contract
for the lease of the Western and Atlan
tic railroad was made clear Thursday
by Henry Walters, chairman of the
board of directors of the Louisville and
Nashville, in a conference with members
of the dtp- plaza commission held in
the office of Mayor Candler.
■Several days ago Milton Smith, the
president of the Louisville and Nash
ville railroad, served notice on Mayor
Candler and on the leasing commission
that he considered the plaza a "piece of
damn foolishness." and -that the plaza
should not be built if he could pre
vent it.
When the plaza commission con
ferred Thursday with Henry Walters,
the chairman of the bop.rd of directors
of the Western and Atlantic, they found
that his attitude toward the plaza is
substantially the same as the attitude
of Mr. Smith.
Mr. Walters made it very plain to
the members of the commission
that the Louisville and Nashville is op
posed to the incorporation of the pro
posed plaza clause in the lease contract.
He made it plain that if the leasing
commission should incorporate the
clause in the contract in spite of the
opposition of the Louisville and Nash
ville. then the Louisville and Nashville
would very probably inform the leasing
commission that it did not want the
Western and Atlantic at any price.
He said the Louisville and Nashville
railroad would be willing to consider
the plaza plan on its merits after it
had leased the Western and Atlantic, but
it wasn’t willing to be required, by the
terms of the lease contract, to consider
the plan.
Members of the commission tried to
show Mr. Walters that the plaza cannot
be built unless the Louisville and Nash
ville approves the plans, even with the
plaza clause in the lease, and hence it
would in no way jeopardize the inter
ests of the Louisville and Nashville fqr
the clause to be incorporated. But they
couldn't make him agree that such was
the case.
They tried to show him that the rail
road terminal arrangements in Atlanta
are an intolerable nuisance which this
city will not permit a day longer that
it can put the nuisance to an end. and
he was willing to admit that the condi
tions are very bad and will have to be
remedied. But he was still unwilling
for the lease contract to be complicated
with any clause bearing on the plaza

ENGLJNU IS WRITING FOR
NEUTHAL NITIONS' PDLICV
Officials Are Silent Until Out
side Nations Take Defi
nite Action
LONDON, Feb. I.—The German dec
laration of unrestricted war at has
created a profound sensation in England
where it was unexpected. All interest
centers on the policy which neutral na
tions will adopt.
The decision of the United States is
awaited with the most intense interest,
as it is recognized that it will have a
strong influence on other neutrals and
be the most important factor in the
solution ofone of the most serious crises
of the war.
Officials decline to discuss the ques
t ipe, formally. It is pointed out that in
asmuch as the note is addressed to neu
trals, it is essentially for them to deal
with.* At a later time application of
the measures with wnich the note deals
may involve questions affecting the en
tente nations as well as neutrals, but
for the present there is a desire to avoid
expressions which may be open to the
construction that influence or pressure
is being exerted in regard to the decision
neutral nations will make.
There is reason to believe those in the |
inner circle were aware of what was
coming and 'had considered measures to
be taken. The recent naval conference
held here is understood to have gone i
over this subject.
Information available then was that
Germany would use the rejection by
the allies of her peace proposal in
justification of intensified naval war
fare.
German notification to Spain was de
livered several days ago. and it then
became known in entente quarters that
the note indicated Spanish ships would
be subject a» attack if they entered the
prohibited zones.
It is noted here that the German com
munication to the United States gives
warning against entering the prohibited
areas, but does not state the effect of
so doing. This is construed as a repe
tition of the warnings Germany gave in
February. 1915. against entrance of
specified zones by neutral ships.
It is pointed out here that a declara
tion of blockade requires certain defined
formalities and that this state of block
ade is not created by any of the gener
alized references to a blockade in the
German note
Naval experts, hold that this is a high
ly important distinction, as a forma)
declaration of blockade gives the right
to search ships entering the restricted
zones, when suspected of carrying con
traband. but absence of a formal declara
tion of blockade gives no right of
search or detention, much less of at
tacking neutral ships.
This has been one of the chief causes
of controversy Mween Germany and
America. As Great Britain and France
have not declared a formal blockade
<rf German ports the United States
has objected to detention of American
ships. The allied governments have
been urged to cleclare a blockade as a
means of Justifying seizures of Ameri
can vessels This, It is said here, es
tablishes the attitude of the United
States toward any detention of American
ships by Germany in the absence of a
formal blockade.

Fayetteville Citizens
Ask for Extra Session
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
FAYETTEVILLE, Ga., Jan. 30.—W. L.
Smith, mayor of Fayetteville, has for
warded the following resolutions to
Governor Harris;
“To his Excellency, the Governor of
Georgia:
"In mass meeting this day, January 29,
of the citizens of Fayetteville and Fay
ette county, it is* the unanimous wish
of our citizens, that you cail an extra
session of state assembly as early
as consistent for the purpose of prohib
iting shipments of liquor in this state.
“We believe the farming interest is
vitally effected by these shipments, and
the records of the ordinary of the coun

colored population of the county, and
that these shopmen Ls are gradually
growing.”

ULTIMATUM TO BERLIN
MAY PRECEDE NOTICE

(Continued from Page One.)
expressed incredulous amazement yes
terday when informed of what was com
ing through Associated Press dispatches
from Berlin. So far as could be learned
early today no arrangement has been
made for him to appear before congress.
The new German warning carries the
situation back practically to where it
was upon the original proclamation by
Germany two years ago of a war zone
around the British Isles. That procla
mation called forth the famous, "strict
accountability" note from the United
States. It was followed by the sinking
of the Lusitania ana the virtual ulti
matum from the United States which
resulted in the German pledge not to
sink “liners” without warning and pro
vision for the safety of those on board.
Then came the long series of alleged
violations of this pledge, culminating in
the attack upon the channel passenger
steamer Sussex.
EXTENDED PLEDGES.
In her final note in the Sussex case,
Germany extended*her pledges to cover
all peaceful merchant craft, but gave
notice that if what she termed Great
Britain’s illegal blockade was maintain
ed, a new situation would he created in
which she would reserve full liberty of
action. The United States accepted the
new assurances in a terse note which
informed the Berlin government that it
was taken- for granted that observance
of American rights was not contingent
upon the outcome of negotiations be
tween the United States and another na
tion.
The new situation has arisen and the
reserved liberty of action is to be used.
According to information from Teutonic
sources, Germany has ready from 300
to 500 submarines to wage relent
less war upon shipping in the prescrib
ed area, a great section of the high seas
stretching three or four hundred miles
from the coasts of the British Isles and
almost the whole of the Mediterranean
sea.

"The note is a surprise to me,” he
said.

The ambassador hastily read the note
and then, asserting it was too serious
for discussion now protested against
further questioning. He said he would
go immediately to Washington.

Says Simple Remedy
Prolonged His Life
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin
Effective as a Remedy
for Constipation.
Among older people the various organs
of the body have a tendency to slow up
and weaken, and this is usually first
manifest in a pronounced inactivity of
the bowels.
Good health is dependent on regular
ity in this important function; when
ever there is the slightest indication of
constipation a mild laxative should be
taken to relieve the congestion and dis
pose of the accumulated waste. Ca
thartics or purgatives should not be em
ployed, however; these are too violent
in action and their effect is only tem
porary.
A mild laxative such as the combina
tion of simple laxative herbs with pep
sin, known as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep
sin, is the ideal remedy. It is gentle
in its action, bringing relief in an easy,
natural manner, without griping or other
pain or discomfort, is pleasant to the
taste, and can be obtained in any drug
store
Mr Robert LeForgee, 918 Kirkwood
Boulevard. Davenport, la., says he has
always had a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin in the house for the past
eighteen years, and that by using it oc

Danish Ship’s Captain
Defies Submarine and
Gets Away With It
(By Associated Press.)
COPENHAGEN, Jan. 31.—(Via Lon
don.) —According to the Ekstrabladet,
the captain of the Danish steamer Iris,
which arrived at Copenhagen on Tues
day, defied a German submarine which
threatened to sinx his ship and compell
ed the submarine commander to permit
him to pass. The Iris encountered the
submarine while it was engaged in sink
ing another boat.
The Danish craft was ordered to stop
and was boarded by the submarine cap
tain who inspected its papers and or
dered the crew to take to the small
teats. The Danish captain refused, say
ing that the Iris was bound from one
neutral country to another and had no
contraband on board. He added: "You
may sink us. but I and my merf will
remain on board.”
After threats and arguments had fail
ed to alter the determination of the
ci’.ptain of the Iris, the submarine com
mander returned to his own ship and
allowed the steamer to proceed.
