EMBARGO OH 0.5.
SHIPPING ID BRITAIN
IS PAmm LIFTED
Vessels Now Loaded or
Ready for Cargo on Hand
May Proceed English
Railroad Strike Ended
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.—The em
bargo against the sailing of shipping
board vessels to Great Britain was
partially lifted today by the ship
ping board as a result of the end
ing of the railroad strike here.
Agents of the board at Atlantic
and gulf ports were Instructed to
clear and dispatch immediately all
vessels now completely loaded and
to proceed with the loading of ves
sels for which the cargo is at the
docks or booked. The agents were
instructed, however, not to resume
bookings beyond commitments al
ready made.
There was no indication today
when the embargo would be lifted
completely bu timmediate action was
not expected because of the conges
tion at the docks in Great Britain
which has resulted from the ke
of railway workers.
BRITISH RAIL WORKERS
ARE RETURNING TO WORK
LONDON, Oct. 6.—British rail
way workers were returning to
their posts today after both the
strikers and the government had
made concessions yesterday which
ended the country’s greatest labor
walkout.
On many of the railway lines
trains were in operation early to
day. In some quarters fear was ex
pressed that agitators might cause
further trouble but there was no
evidence of it in London, •where
the night shifts generally reported
for work last night.
With both sides claiming vic
tory, the average Briton was con
c* med chiefly with the simple fact
that a settlement had been reached.
Regardless of the partisan claims
of victory, Britain recognizes gen
erally that both sides conceded
some points and granted some com
promises; both retained enough to
"save their faces” and both were
plainly conscious of the terrible pos
sibilities involved in a failure to
• settle the issue.
Under the terms of settlement
wages still remain at their present
level until September 30, 1920,
vziien they will be reviewed in the
< light of existing circumstances. The
government will pay the arrears in
wages which'- were withheld owing
to the strikers breach of contract.
The government also made the
concession of reopening negotia
tions with the strikers after the
premier had refused to engage in
further discussion until the men re
turned to work. The strikers con
ceded the readjustment of the wage
level in September 1920 and grant
ed minor concessions relating to
minimum wages.
The settlement was effected at a
conference of government and uniqn
officials which began in Downing
street at noon Sunday. The an
nouncement was made shortly after
4 o’clock.
Attending the conference were
Premier Lloyd George and other cab
inet members, and several labor rep
resentatives, including J. H. Thomas,
secretary, and C. T. Cramp, presi
dent of the National Union of Rail
wayman.

FOSTER.LEADER OF
STRIKERS. DENIES
ULMICRLISM
Hurls Epithets at Newspa
pers During Exam in ait on
Before Senate Investigat
. Ing Committee
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.—Charging
that he had not been fairly treated
by the newspapers, William Z. Fost
er, secretary of the steel strikers’
committee, told the senate committee
investigating the strike today that
he would answer a question as to
whether he was in favor of organized
government if the correspondents
•were excluded from the room.
The committee took no action on
the request and Senator McKellar,
.Democrat, Tennessee, and Chairman
'Kenyon pressed for an answer to the
question, which had been put by the
former. Foster said his views had
changed, but he was unwilling to say
how far in the presence of the cor
respondents.
When Senator McKellar first asked
his question, Foster laughed. The
senator then read from a book, which
Foster agreed he had written, declar
ing social revolution necessary in the
United States to secure workers’
rights.
“I’ve repudiated that pamphlet,”
said Foster, “but I don’t want any
views bandied about by a lot of
prejudied, lying newspapers to the
damage of the strikers.”
Foster said his own views had not
been used in the steel strike; that
he had adhered to the “principles
of trade unionism.” He explained
that he was raised in the slums and
that when he wrote the book he
was “a follower of the Spanish
French and Italian union system.”
Today, he added, he had “become a
little less radical possibly,” and was
“a believer in American and English
trade unionism.”
Reading from the pamphlet on
“syndicalism” a section saying that
“the wage-earner proposes to ignore
the code of ethics and wrest from
the capitalists the industries they
have stolen and bring about the rev
olution by the general strike,” Sen
ator McKellar asked Foster if he
entertained those Views now.
“I’ll say I do not,” Foster said in
a lowered voice.
In refusing to arbitrate the steel
strike, Elbert H. Gary, chairman of
the board of the United States Steel
corporation, “is sowing the seeds of
anarchy,” the committee was told
by Michael F. Tighe, president of
the Union of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers.
Colonel House Leaves
For United States; His
Plans Here Uncertain
PARIS, Oct. 6. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Edward M.
House, of the American peace dele
gation, accompanied by Mrs. House,
left Paris for Brest last night. They
sailed for the United States on
Monday on the steamship Northern
Pacific.
It was announced by Colonel
House that his plans on arriving in
the United States were uncertain. He
expects to see President Wilson as
sooh as the president is able to re
ceive visitors, and said he was ready
to return to Europe or do anything
else the president wishes him to do.
Colonel House said the supreme
council probably would continue its
sessions in Paris for an indefinite
period, and that President Wilson,
after ratification of the peace treaty
by three of the great powers, prob
ably would call a meeting of the
League of Nations executive coun
cil to be held in Paris, as it would
be impossible for the members to go
to Washington within two weeks,
which is the period the ratification
of the treaty to settle the Saar Val
ley problem.
Mr. House added that this meet
ing of the executive council likely
would deal only with the Saar Val
ley problem, leaving other matters
for a later meeting in Washington.

Camp Joseph E. Johnston
At Piedmont Park Rapidly
Filling With Heroes of ’6O
Two Thousand Tents Erect
ed to Care for 8,000 Vet
erans of Confederacy,
Mess Hall Ready
If Mr. Barnum, Mr. Ringling and
the other headliners of the circus
profession had happened to dump
their collection of odds and ends in
Piedmont park, it wouldn’t be half
so big a sight as that which now
greets the eye—2,ooo khaki-colored
tents stretched across the field in
neat, ord i-ly rows; Confederate vet
erans, world war veterans and Boy
Scouts swarming through streets,
and a vast billowy mess tent under
Which will be fed 2,400 veterans at
a sitting, and from which now comes
steam and smoke and fragrant odors,
and the clatter of dishes, pots and
pans.
All day Sunday veterans streamed
into the park and on Monday the
influx was considerably increased.
At noon Monday Camp Joseph E.
Johnston, as Piedmont park is now
known, had a good-sized population.
Luncheon was served by Chef Pick
ens, Monday, but the first real out
and-out meal ■ ->ot be spread un
til supper time Tuesday evening.
Monday Piedmont park presented
a sight of rare beauty. When you
stand upon the elevation above the
level of the camp the lines of tents
stretch away before you in swirl
ing rows, a vast sea of cojylcal tops.
At the rear the lumpy top of the
rqess tent rears itself, and the tents’
doors along the ma!’’ v>’k leading
from the concrete steps frame fig
ures of old men, wearing the bronze
crosses of the Confederacy.
There now are 2,000 tents erected,
the job of putting them up having
New Fiction Features Begins Soon in
The Journal
As soon as the two fiction serials now running in The Semi-
Weekly Journal are completed, The Journal will present, a new
story by Margaret Wilde, and will begin the publication oif sum
marized stories of the most famous novels of literature.
Readers of the paper who have come to feel a personal in
terest in Deane and her Diary and “Dear Margery” will be glad
to know that Miss e has written another story in autobio
graphic style. It is “The Story of Marian Swann,” in which the
author gives two interesting characters, Marian, a war widow,
and Dr. Clarke, the unselfish and devoted physician. Os course
it is a love story, so be sure to read it.
The series of condensed novels which will begin soon will be
welcomed by every person who loves to read. They are not only
interesting from a fiction standpoint, but are of educational value,
for whoever reads the series will gain a splendid conception of the
world’s best fiction.
Watch for these new stories.

been completed Monday. These
tents will accommodate 8,000 old sol
diers, as four veterans will be as
signed to each tent. Four cots, with
plenty of blankets, have already
been placed in each tent. The tents
are cozy, warm and comfortable —
but not too warm. Every necessary
step has been taken to insure the
comfort of the veterans.
The section of the park around
the huge mess tent was astir Mon
day. The immense kitchen has been
completed and the ice box filled to
capacity. The long steam table is
already sizzling and the steam bar
rels are now ready to receive the
ham and rice which will be cooked
therein. Four barrels of rice and
four barrels of potatoes will be
Cooked in these steam barrels every
twenty minutes.
The veterans at the park Monday
were served sandwiches and coffee
at the sandwich stand, which will
be open all the time. At supper
Wednesday evening the entire 8,000
veterans —if all have arrived at the
camp—will be fed under the mess
tent. It is estimated that it will
take three hours to feed the entire
population of the camp. Plans have
been made to give veterans lunch
when they leave Atlanta and enough
of it to last until they reach their
homes.
Chimney Filled With Bees
Yields 300 Lbs. of Honey
While men were tearing down an
old brick smokestack at Dunbarton,
N. Y., they found that it was filled
with bees. r The workmen .retreated
under the force of the insects’ first
drive, but later built a fire under
the chimney and smoked them out.
An hour later they were able to
resume their work and they found
that the chimney was filled with
honey which totalled 300 pounds.

SEEK ARMS IN
TERRITORY OF
ARKANSAS RIOT
HELENA. Ark., Oct. 3.—Federal
troops from Camp Pike and local
possemen and state officers on riot
duty at Elaine, where race dis
turbances have occurred intermit
tently since Thursday, resulting in
IS known deaths, early today pre
pared to resume a search for arms
and ammunition secreted by ne
groes in that locality.
The race trouble, late reports in
dicated, was fomented by agitators
who had aroused the negroes to
participate in an organized upris
ing and the authorities were deter
mined to prevent further trouble
by obtaining possession of all fire
arms in the hands of negroes in
the district.
To accomplish their purpose, they
sent parties of men through the ne
gro quarter searching houses and
outbuildings, where gun caches/were
suspected. An announcement ’made
at military headquarters in Elaine
saio that about 150 rifles had been
taken from negroes who had been
arrested or at the homes of negroes
searched by troops.
■Wholesale arrests of negroes have
been made, according to officials,
who announced today 285 prisoners
had been taken to date. Os that
number 225 were under guard by
federal troops at Elaine, and sixty
had been brought here.
The known white dead In con
nection with the fighting remained
at five, including one soldier. Cor
poral Luther Earles, whose father
lives in Statesbury, W. Va. Five
white men have been wounded.
Eleven negroes are known to have
been killed and officials said that
number probably would be in
creased when outlying spots where
skirmishes took place have been
searched.
The feeling prevailed among offi
cials here today that the worst of
the trouble was over.

Southeastern Fair, Biggest in
Association f s History, to Open
At Lakewood Park Saturday
Record Attendance Expect
ed at Exposition Which
Will Hold Forth at Fair
Grounds October 11-21
The gate's of Lakeword park will
be thrown open to the south on Sat
urday; the battery of turnstiles op
posite the car line will again begin
their clicking; the asphalt streets on
the grounds will again curl through a
gaily decorated city, and the South
eastern Fair of 1919 will extend its
welcome to Atlanta, to Georgia and
the south.
In a statement Saturday, Mr.
Hastings declared that the 1919 fair
will put the Southeastern Fair as
sociation on a par with the other
great fair associations of the coun
try, and that the exposition which
opens next Saturday will easily sur
pass that of 1918, when the fair had
to be staged in the face of singular
hardships.
Many Georgia Herds
The action of the executive board
in adding materially to the premiums
in the cattle and swine divisions
has had the anticipated . effect of
bringing all of the prominent south
ern breeders and entries from the
prize winning herds of some of the
northern states. The premiums in
the swine division this year are
double that of any other fair in the
United States and it has brought a
flood of entries including all the
breeds. It is gratifying to the fair
management that the southern breed
ers make up 90 per cent of the ex
hibitors and that the percentage of
Georgia brebders' is at ’east four to
one. The lowa herds, which won
the most ribbons, will be among
those exhibited in Atlanta and two
big swine sales will be held during
the fair by Hampshire and O. I. C.
breeders of national reputation.
The entries in the poultry depart
ment indicate that the breeders ap
preciate the efforts to the manage
ment to improve conditions for the
poultry fancier by putting the show
in a permanent building.' The ex
hibit will be found in the basement
of the liberal arts building in the
space formerly occupied by the dog
show.
The Boys’ Pig clubs of Georgia
will make a good showing.
Many Agricultural Exhibits
Every foot of space in the big
agricultural building has been taken
and not an inch of it devoted to
commercial purposes. The entries
from Alabama lead all the other
states and include all of the old time
exhibitors as well as a number of
new counties whose commercial or
ganizations are using the opportuni-
RATTLESNAKES OF THE OLD RELIABLE “DIAMOND
BACK” VARIETY are still numbered among the products of the
grand old state of Georgia, as witness this dangerous-looking
specimen, which was captured in Wilcox county a couple oif days
ago, by H. W. Goodwin, of Roswell (below). His snakeship meas
ures something over 5 feet and shakes a wicked rattle, or rather,
15 of them. —Staff Photo by Winn.

sources of their section.
Indications are that ' the dairy
demonstration and exhibit of prod
ucts will show a phenomenal advance
over previous years. Mississippi, Al
abama and Georgia are competing
now with the northern states and the
products and utilities necessary for
successful dairying that have been
entered will make twice the show of
last year.
The machinery exhibit will be one
of the big features of the fair; three
times as much space will be used as
was required last year and the trac
tors which will be shown on the ma
chinery midway and in the automo
tive industries exhibit will include
every well known make, and are to
be demonstrated by the mbst experi
enced men connected with the fac
tories.
The automobile show occupying
26,500 square feet of space will ex
ceed in importance any previous
show in the south.
The demonstration of household
utilities in the liberal arts building
will be on a scale heretofore un
known at a southern fair. It will
include almost everything of labor

present labor situation give added
value to this feature of the fair.
The entries in the woman’s depart
ment exceed all previous years and
the exhibits of domestic arts and
sciences will include every feature of
home life. The girls canning clubs
will record a wonderful progress
which gained impetus during the

I PRESIDENT WILSON
[IMPROVES STERDILT;
PUSSES MD NIGHT
Senator Hitchcock Says Ill
ness Will Not Affect
Treaty Struggle Which Is
A
Straight-Away Fight
WASHINGTON, 6.—President
Wilson continues to improve and
passed a satisfactory night, said a
bul!c‘ ! n issued at 11 a. m. ’•--’'v and
signed by Rear Admiral Grayson,
the president’s physician; Rear Ad
miral Stitt, head of the naval medi
cal sc- -hI here, and Dr. Sterling
Ruffin, of this city.
The bulletin follows:
“White House, October 6, 1919, it
a. m.
“The improvement in the presi
dent’s condition noted yesterday, has
continued. He had a s
night.
(Signed)
“GRAYSON,
“RUFFIN,
“STITT.”
This was t first time Drs. Stitt
and Ruflin, who h been assisting
Dr. Grayson, had sir" ’e bulletin,
which was issued after a " ’Ra
tion between the doctors.
Amplifying the bulletin Dr. Gray
son said there was a slight improve
ment in the president’s condition and
that he again insisted attending the
public matters he considered press
ing, particularly the industrial con
ference. The president desired to
write a message to the conference.
Dr. Grayson said he was not yet
ready for the president to do any
work and would continue to insist
that he have absolute quiet and rest
and keep his mind off official
matters. »
The physician fears thar any ex
cessive activity on the part of the
president might cause a reaction.
While a spirit of optimism per
vaded the White House today because
of the continued improvement in the
president’s condition, Dr. Grayson
said he did not want to be tqo op
timistic and would continue to
watch his patient carefully.
Treaty Fight to Continue
Senator Hitchcock, administration
leader in the treaty struggle, called
at the White House today and talk
ed with Secretary Tumulty.
“I do not believe the illness of the
president will have any serious ef
fect on the struggle for ratification
of the treaty since we apparently
have straight fighting ahead for the
next two or three weeks,” Senator
Hitchcock said.
Dr. Grayson repeated informally
shat he was not yet ready to pro
nounce the president’s turn tj,- v; ;e
better as decisive although his con
dition was considered better than
at any time since his illness began.
Last night’s' official statement
said:
“The president had a restful and
fairly comfortable day.”
Heat of the past three days break
ing all records for twenty-two years
for this season of the year in Wash
ington was not a good thing for
the president, it was learned, and
Sunday afternoon seemed to depress
him, but last night he showed no
ill effects from it and showers dur
ing the night proved refreshing.
The president napped during the
day, was cheerful and evinced a live
ly interest in government matters.
It was with difficulty that his at
tendants were able to guide his
thoughts into other channels in con
formance with the plan of complete
rest.
CARRIES $5,000
WORTH OF METAL
ABOUT IN BODY
ATHENS, Ga.—Not to every mart
comes the distinction and good
fortune at one and the same
time of carrying in his body within
a fraction of $5,000 worth of plati
num and silver. But wait. Is it
such good fortune, after all? Dur
ing these days when old H. C. L.
is hearing down on folks and every
body is figuring on some scheme to
swell the pocketbook it might be
dangerous for a man to walk down
around town at night with five thou
sand simoleons’ worth of platinum
and silver about his person, even if
it was put there by doctors to mend
his wounds. But no one, after tak
ing a good look at Sergeant George
of the famous Foreign Legion, would
think of sandbagging him.
Sergeant George, who is a West
Virginian, joined the American army
when he was fourteen years old, and
served continuously in armies un
til a few months ago. when he was
discharged on a disability certificate.
He is about forty years old, and now
longs to get bac in the army. He
served five years with the American
forces in the Philippines, three years
on the Mexican border and four yearU
wit hthe Anzacs in the British
trenches. His left arm is covered
with service stripes and his right
arm is one gold stripe after anothir
representing the six distinctive
wounds he received while serving in
the European war. He was an honor
guest in a German prison for eight
months and is the only American
Jiving who fought in the Turkish
Dardanelles. His body bears the
scars of fifty-sevent mustard gas
burns. He was awarded citations by
the king of England, General Persh
ing, General Diaz and Marshal Foch.
Sergeant George and Sniper Bee,
who is himself a famous soldier, are
traveling in the south for their
nealt.h. Both were discharged on cer
tificates of disability. Sniper Bee
served with the Canadian army in
the world war. He Wa<) a* machine

Clothing Prices Reduced
By Large Manufacturer
CHICAGO, Oct. 6th.—Mr. Jas. 0. Bell,
head of the Bell Tailors, Adams at Green
st., Chicago, 111., said to he the largest
made-to-measure clothing establishement in
the world, recently stated that his firm is
now able to quote prices on Fall and Winter
suits 3.1 per cent below what others ask.
To prove this point, he showed the writer
a very attractive piece of all-wood cnssiniere
for which they ask only $20.00 a suit made
to individual measure, whereas the same
fabric is now being offered by merchants
at 330.00 to $32.00 per suit. Even lar- r
savings are offered on their hi-her priced
suits. Every reader of The Journal should
write Mr. Bell for bis price list, and n
free copy of his style book No. 281.«?whicli
contains large cloth samples of many'beau
tiful patterns.—(Advt.)
