GERMAN MILITARY DESPOTS FIGHTING I THE PLAIN PEOPLE Swiss, Dutch and Scandina vian Reports Indicate Rapid Spread of General Strikes in Central Empires I LONDON. Feb 2.—ls dispatches i which leaked through the tightly drawn | veil of censorship over the central em i pires tonight arc accurate, Germany’s I military despots now are fighting the plain people to whom President Wil son appealed to throw off the yoke of Hohenzoliernism. •* Swiss, Dutch and Scandinavian dis : patches all reported vast spread of the ' general strike in Germany and Austria- Hungary. Many carried circumstantial I stories of violence to which the govern ' ment resorted, to maintain its hold over the people. Berlin apparently s now wholly under martial law. Troops | have reinforced the police. The government has served an ulti matum on the strikers, ordering their return to work Monday morning and threatening as the alternative not civil processes, but the grim military dis cipline of the firing squad. The mob spirit was reported as hav ing broken out in at least one city— the important war center of Spandau German newspapers reported 'serious rioting there Thursday, according io Amsterdam dispatches. Strikers attack ed the police, destroyed factory and rail road property and stormed bake shops. Independent Socialists are organizing ( a national demonstration in protest against the arrest of Wilhelm Dittmann. Socialist member of the reichstag, who was seized as he attempted to address a crowd in Berlin. Imperial Chancellor Heartling refused to intervene, declar ing he was powerless to invoke civil : proceedure while the military controlled th© capital city. Bloodshed Reported A brief Central News dispatch, from Amsterdam late today reported "blood shed” in the streets of Berlin, but no details are available. Strikers and po j licemen have had frequent clashes there but. until the report, it was under stood order was being restored. The desperation of the German mili tarists is seeti in the order reducing strikers’ food rations reported through Zurich to have become effective today. This, of course, will directly affect strikers’ families and thousands of inno cent women and children are expected to bear the brunt of this retaliation. While Socialist newspapers are urging an immediate session of the reichstag to investigate the strike, junker organs op pose this, ostensibly through national istic motives, but really through fear of undue Socialistic influence. Zurich reported tonight that the Lckal Anzeiger and similar papers urged the government to drastic action, calling the strikers traitors. The Deutsches Tages Zeitung, accused Austria of responsibil ity for the movement, owing to its in sistence on shipment of flour from Ger- I many to Austria. The Rheninsche Zeitung. Socialist, de nounced the government for compelling* publication of "false” news concerning ' the strike. The storm has been brewing in the central empires for many months. Its premonitory outbreak came first in Hun gary. Budapest and Prague were the first cities to report a strike—where men. women and children paraded the streets shouting for bread and for peace. Vienna was next affected. Spreads to Germany Then the unrest spread into Germany. Munich was one of the first cities which I felt it. Next cam#' Berlin itself, center of the gigantic German military ma chine. President Wilson made his first ap peal to the people to rise and throw oft th© yoke of militarism when America cast her lot with the hosts of democra cy, April 6, 1917. Junkerdom in Ger many hooted at the possibility of the masses they had deceived ever seeing the light. The seeds of discontent had been sown in Hungary even before this. The Russian overthrow of czarism in March, imbued the ever-restive Czechs-Slavs with ambitions to become independent. Then came the Bolshevik government lin Russia, which from its outset, un dertook to follow President Wilson's plan of appealing to the people them- I selves. Austrian and Bulgarian troops I ion the northern battle front became I "tavarish” (comrade) to the Russians. The Muscovite democracy of the ex treme found disciples. Inevitably this I yearning for freedom must have spread i back into Hungary and Austria and I Germany. There were some observers here to night who speculated on the likelihood | that Germany’s military masters had j themselves assisted in the growth of this great weapon against themselves. 1 The Teutonic military strategists vio- I lated their armistice pledge to Russia ' by sneaking their choicer troops on that front back home, remoulding them into divisions, and sending them to the west front. These pien may have earned I back to their homes and to the workers I In th© war plants the dreams of full de : mocracy. More than that. Germany must now be feeling tightly the pinch of Amer ica’s embargo. It is midwinter. Long, lean months are ahead—and Germany’s submarine war which was to snatch a victorious peace from the enemy in three months is still far from this end. Socialists United FY>r the first time in Germany’s his tory, Socialist strength is united in op position to the militarist policies of annexation and indemnities. Even Phil ip Scheidemann, the majority Social ist leader, always suspected of being a mere tool of the government, because of his willing acquiescence in every pre vious governmental scheme, is now ac tively working with Ledebour. Haase, Dittmann and others of the extreme Socialist type. One other factor in the situation as London observers saw it, was the likeli hood that the German people have now fully awakened to the bold dictum of annexation and indemnities pronounced at Brest-Litovsk by the German peace delegates. Germany has long been re ported as looking longingly in her hun ger at the fertile fields of Russia, bare ly touched by the plow, andcapable un der Teuton efficiency of producing the food for which the peoples stomachs I yearn. When Russia indicated her de sire for peace, it is possible the Ger man people foresaw the future when German experts teach Russia how best to cultivate her lands and German "kultur” should cement the Muscovites to the Teutons. Then came the German terms, showing Germany’s dictating military masters wanted more than this. Spain Demands Answer LONDON, Feb. 2.—The Spanish note sent to Berlin protesting the torpedo ing of the Spanish steamer Giralda re quested an answer within 48 hours, a Madrid dispatch to the Daily Mail as serted today. FHVSICIL EXAMINATIONS ME TEMPOfIURILT STOPPED Major Mallet Orders State Boards to Wait for New | - Instructions Acting on instructions from Provost ■ Marshal General Crowder, the selective ' service law officer for Georgia, Major Joel B. Mallet, Saturday ordered all local boards in Georgia immediately to discontinue physical examination of registrants until further notice. The step was taken because of the fact that an entire modification of the rules governing physical examinations has been made. The new regulations arc now on their way to Major Mallet and. I until they are received, no examina tions will be made in Georgia. Men or dered to report next week are notified that they need not report until a later date. The new regulations so modify the physical requirements that it is ex pected a very large per cent of the men in class one will be available for serv ice. Men with minor physical disabili ties, which ordinarily would be suf ficient to disqualify, will be put in the nonconibatant branches of service, thereby releasing more able-bodied men for fighting duty. It is expected tfcat all men who al ready have been pronounced physically deficient will be re-examined under the new regulations unless their disabili ties were of very serious nature. GEORGIA POTfiTO KILN 15 GOVERNMENT PLIN Appropriation of $50)000 Is Considered by Senate Committee BY RALPH SMITH WASHINGTON. F©b. 2.—As a result of development at a hearing this after- I noon before the senate committee on agriculture, it is regarded as certain that the federal government will expend approximately >50,0000 in the erection of a plant in south eGorgia for the pres ervation of sweet potatoes. The com mittee heard experts on the practicality of preserving fruits, potatoes and other fresh vegetables by means of a new drying process. Senator Hoke Smith de veloped that the process is especially adapted for thus preserving sweet pota toes and it was tentatively agreed that a plant should be erected in south Georgia for this work. Ground Hog Fails To See His Shadow; Outlook Promising With 41 for the lowest temperature in the past twenty-four hours and with a variance between 45 and 50 degrees pre dicted for Sunday, it was evident at i noon Saturday that the latest long ex < pected cold wave has simply refused to add to Atlanta's record-breaking win ter. “There will b© no chance for the ground hog to, see his shadow at any time today.” said Prof. Von Herrman, "so the future seems bright, if the old superstition about the annual weather oracle is true.” Sunday there will probably be a lit tle rain and a great deal of clouds, ac cording to the weather bureau. The rain will be less than that of Saturday. Fuel Oil Industry Will Be Taken Over By Government Soon WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—The govern ment today took the final steps toward taking over administration of the fuel oil industry.

BAIL COHTBOL BILL WILL HE EXPEDITED IT M'WS REQUEST Amendments Will Limit Oper ation and Measure Provides for Compensation to Stock ; Holders in Various Cmpanies I WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—The admin- I istration railroad bill, limiting the pe j riod of government control of the rail j roads and providing for compensation ! to the stockholders will be reported to : both houses of congress next week. At the urgent request of Director Gen eral McAdoo, administration leaders will make every effort to expedite pas sage of the measure. senate interstate commerce com mittee voted today to report the meas ure favorably Monday with amend ments limiting government control to eighteen months after the close of the war and giving the president power to initiate rates subject to appeal to the interstate commerce commission. The committee's action was not unanimous, Senators Cummins and Republicans, anouncing that they would submit minority reports. The house committee by a vote of 15 to 6, approved an amendment providing for termination of government control two years after peace is declared. Chairman Sims later announced that his committee would complete consid eration of the measure Tuesday or Wednesday and that he would ask unan imous consent for its immediate pas sage. Tour Amendments Offered Four amendments to limit the time of government control were offered in the house committee. One by Repre sentative Esch fixed the time at one year after the war, another by Repre sentative Barclay at three years, a third by Representative Parker at 18 months, and the fourth, by Represent ative Montague, at two years. Chairman Sims vigorously opposed the two years’ limitation as adopted, declaring that it would affect the val uation of railroad securities. Repre sentative Montague insisted that at least two years would be required for the railroad interests to adjust them selves after the war. Those voting 1 for the two-year amendment were Mon tague. Rayburn, Coady, Dewait, Snock, Sanders, Esch, Hamilton, Parker, of New Jersey; Parker, of New York; Win slow, Dillon,* Sweet, Stiness and Coop er, and those voting against it were ' Sims. Doremus, Stephens, Barkley, Decker and Dale. The senate committee left unchanged the original provision in the bill fixing the rate of compensation on the basis of the annual railway operating income for the three years ending on June 30, | 1917, and the house committee also is I expected to agre to this provision which was suggested by the president Amendments forbidding increas i ed compensation to roads based on their earning's or surplus accrued during the period of government control and put into the property were accepted. The action authorizing the president to purchase and construct canals was amended so as to permit only of their utilization. The section providing for an appro- I priation of >500,000,000 to be used as a revolving fund from which to pay any defiiciencies that may result or to pro vide tor additional facilities, was re tained by the senate committee. The fund would provide the government with working capital for the operation of the roads. Tn providing for the termination of government control eighteen months after the war the senate committee further amended the bill so as to au thorize the president, if in his opinion necessity for further control should I terminate, to relinquish supervision over all roads before that time. Discre tionary power to determine up to July 1. 1918, what roads are necessary in the government operation plan also is I placed in the president, but after that time he could not exclude from govern ment control any road without its con sent. The amendment authorizing the presi dent to initiate rates permits appeal either by the carrier or shipper to the interstate commerce commission which is to investigate and determine their fairness. This section and the one fix ing the time of government control were bitterly debated in the committee and, owing to the wide differences, an ad justment was effected only after the questions had been submitted to a sub committee. Williams Brothers Are Arrested at Quitman In Blind Tiger Crusade QUITMAN, Ga, Feb. 2.—Sheriff J.’P. j Wade has put the blind tigers of neigh boring counties on notice that they can not ship whisky to Quitman.
