PRESIDING H DER
NORTON GIVES IT
HISEfMENT!
Prominent Methodist Minis-,
ter Says Tanlac Relieved
Indigestion and Restored
Him to Health
One of the most noteworthy fea
tures in connection with the intro
duction of Tanlac throughout the
south has been the large number of
ministers of the Gospel who have
unhesitatingly and voluntarily given
this wonderful medicine their un
qualified endorsement.
The Rev. W. C. Norton, presiding
Elder of the Miami District, Florida,
conference of the Methodist Episco
pal Church, South, and for many
years pastor of the Wesley Memorial
church at Jacksonville, adds his !
testimony to the thousands of oth
ers who have been restored to
health by its use.
After* saying that Tanlac had been
t ecommended to him by several mem
bers of his congregation he made
the remarkable statement that Tan
lac had entirely relieved him of a se
vere case of chronic indigestion of
eight or ten years standing. His
statement follows:
“For eight or ten years I suffer
ed front chronic indigestion causing
intense pains from gas in my stom
ach. At times I would become very
dizzy and seldom slept well and also
suffered at times with severe head
aches; attacks of acute indigestion
were frequent and I was simply un
comfortable all the time.
“I became interested in Tanlac
through my friends who had tried it.
The benefit I have derived from the
use of this medicine is nothing short
of wonderful, for I really feel as
well now as I ever felt in my life.
I sleep well and eat anything I want
and indigestion never troubles me
now. My liver and kidneys seem
to be acting perfectly and I feel
splendid in every way. In short,
Tanlac has simply restored my health
and I feel it my duty to recommend
it as a medicine of exceptional merit,
especially to those who may be suf
fering as I once was.”
All good druggists sell Tanlac.

EIRLY REGO6NITIM
OF BOMIKI IS
SEEN BY MARTENS
WASHINGTON. D. C.—Recogni
tion of the Soviet government by
world powers is near. Ludwig Mar
tens, Soviet representative in the
United States, told the senate for
eign relations committee Friday.
“I think the political situation of
the world is such that recognition
of the Soviet .government is near,”
Mr. Mortens said.
“What malted you' think thdt?”
Chairman Moses asked.
“General political conditions and the
attitude of the allies at Paris,” Mar
tens replied. “TheJ lifting of the
blockade. 1 believe, is the beginning.”
An offer to present to the senate
committee investigating Bolshevik
propaganda in the United States
“true copies” of all communications
between himself and the Russian
soviet government was made by Mar
tens. Former Senator Hardwick
said, however, it Was desired some
of thq letters be considered in .execu
tive sessions as they might “involve
others, far beyond the sea, in trou
ble.” He explained he referred to
those who assisted in maintaining
the communication between the self
styled ambassador and the soviet
chiefs in Russia. Chairman Moses
reserved decision as to an executive
session.
Martens disclosed that despite the
vigilance of the secret service agents
of the allied governments a steady
stream of Russian gold has been
flowing into headquarters in New
York by couriers. He refused, how
ever, to divulge details of this un
der-ground channel of communica
tion.
Mr. Martens was cautioned against
Circulating Soviet propaganda by
means of the senate hearings.
Bx-Senator Hardwick, Mr. Martens’
counsel submitted a statement show
ing the contracts made between
American firms and the soviet gov
ernment.
Special couriers traveled in relays
through neutral countries carrying
gold and instructions from Lenine,
the directing genius at Moscow, Mr.
Martens revealed, but refused to dis
close the identity of these couriers.
Out of twenty couriers sent to
Mr. Martens by the soviet govern
ment, about seven reported, the com
mittee was told. Several made reg
ular entry into the United States,
Mr. Martens said, but declares he
did no tknow how they passed the
custom officers.
All money received came from the
treasury of the Soviet government,
Mr. Martens asserted, and added a
total of $150,000 had been received.
Thirty thousand dollars came
through first, Mr. Martens said, and
the remainder came in $15,000 lots.
This money was deposited in the
Public National bank in New York

! Cotton Production
In South Georgia
Shows Big Decrease
Martin V. Calvin, statistician in
the state department of agriculture,
i has brought to light some interesting
' not to say startling facts concerning
I the decrease of cotton production in
south Georgia counties in the past
three years.
Taking the map of Georgia, he
divided the state into south Georgia,
j middle Georgia and north Georgia,
■ and computed the cotton production
: in these three sections from the otli
i cial ginning reports of the federal
I government for 1917, 1918 and 1919.
His statistics show that south
, Georgia in 1917 produced 30.5 per
cent of the state’s cotton crop; in
1918 produced 26.7 per cent; in 1919
produced only 17.5 per cent.
They show that middle Georgia
in 1917 produced 58 per cent of the
state’s cotton crop; in 1918 produced
59.5 per cent; in 1919 produced 61.7
! per cent.
i They show that north Georgia in
■ 1917 produced 11.5 per cent of the
' state’s Cotton crop; in 1918 produced
13.8 per cent; in 1919 produced 20.8
: per cent.
I The boll weevil, of course, is re
' sponsible for the rapid decline of
■ cotton production in south Georgia,
ias in that section the seasons are
I long and conditions are favorable
I for the weevil to accomplish a max
imum of damage. In north Georgia
the advance of the boll weevil has
not yet reached its peak. Mr. Cal
vin believes it will never be able to
accomplish as much damage in north
Georgia, in proportion to the cotton
planted, as it did in south Georgia,
owing to the higher altitude, colder
winters and shorter crop seasons.
* His estimate is that south Georgia
from 1917 to 1919 sustained a loss,
all things considered, of nearly $40,-
1 000,000 in the decline of its cotton
I production, but he estimates that a
large part of this was offset by the
| increased production of other crops.
I __ ,
and a “New York state bank,” Mr.
Martens asserted.
It developed today that Mr. Mar
tens’ original credentials from the
Soviet government and several other
documents which were placed in the
records at the first senate commit
tee hearing are missing. Mr. Mar
tens’ ocunsel expressed the belief
that they had only been misplaced,
however.
Explaining his reluctance to lay
before the committee his complete
instructions from the Soviet govern
ment, Mr. Martens in a statement
read by Mr. Hardwick declared that
he would profit by a full revelation,
but declared certain matters “I am
absolutely unable to disclose.”
“It is not because this corerspond
ence contains anything which would
incriminate me or my work in any
way whatsoever,” Mr. Martens
stated.
Mr. Martens declared that Bern
storff was permitted to take his dip
lomatic papers when he was sent
home and that the Russian govern
ment is entitled to equal immunity.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. ATLANTA, GA. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1920.
PfIEFEBENTIAI VOTE
FOB OEMffITIC
NOMINEES IS IM
In connection with the meeting of
the Democratio statu executive .com- |
mittee to be held- in Atlanta next ;
Friday, February t>, for the pUrpoke ■
of determining what method Shall
prevail in determining Georgia’s j
choice for the Democratic presiden !
tial nomination, J. 11. Mills, presi- 1
dent of the Farmers’ Union of Geor- i
gia, on Saturday issued a statement ;
urging the advisability of a prefer- |
ential primary.
Mr. Mills has recently made a
very extensive tour of the state and
is satisfied the Democrats of Geor
gia desire an opportunity of regis
tering their choice for the Democrat
ic nominee for president.
The statement of Mr. Mills doubt
less will be read with interest all
over the slate, as has been
much speculation as to whether the
executive committee would decide to
have a preferential primary or
would leave the instruction of Geor
gia’s delegation in the hands of a
state convention.
Method of Holding Primary
In the event the committee should
decide in favor of a preferential
primary, which many believe they
will, the method of proceedure would
be substantially as follows:
A date would be named, which
might or might not be the date when
county primaries are to.be held;
presidential nominee tickets would be
printed, and on them would appear
the names of candidates whose
names have been filed with the sec
retary of the state committee as
aspirants for the Democratic nomi
nation; the voters would vote for
whichever candidate they preferred,
or (unless there was a contrary
rule) for some Democrat other than
those listed; after the primary, dele
gates -would be named in each coun
ty from among the supporters of
the successful candidate in that
county; these delegates would form a
state convention which would elect
Georgia’s delegation to the San Fran
cisco convention, and Would send
the delegation with instructions to
cast Georgia’s vote for the one re
ceiving the majority county unit vote
in he preferenial primary.
Georgia’s last preferential primary
was held in 1912, when Woodrow
Wilson and Oscar Underwood were
the candidates contesting in this
state, and Underwood carried the
primary. In 1916 there was no pri
mary because President Wilson was
unopposed for the Democratic nomi
nation.
Proceedure tyithout Primary
In case no preferential primary is
held, the proceedure to be "followed
in registering Georgia's choice for
the Democratic presidential nomi
nation would be substantially as fol
lows:
The state executive comniitee
wbuld request the county executive
committees to name delegates to a
state convention; these delegates
"would gather and elect a delegation
to represent Georgia at San Fran
cisco; the delegation might be in
structed for a particular candidate,
or might be sent without instruc
tions, in which event the delegation
would make its own decision, after
arriving in San Francisco, which
candidate to support. I
The difference, herefore, betw'ceh'.
the two different, methods of’ pro
cedure, is just this, that in the, ease
of a preferential primary the Demo
crats of Georgia register their own
choice for the Democratic nominee,
while in the absence of a primary
they have their .choice determined for
them either by a state convention
or by the delegation that go? . to
San Francisco. Georgia’s representa
tion in the national convention at
San Francisco will be equivalent to
two for each congressman and sen
ator from this state —or a total of
twenty-eight votes.
The state executive committee will
meet at 10 o’clock next Friday morn
ing in the convention hall of the
Kimball house in Atlanta.
Mr. Mills’ Statement
The statement issued by Mr. Mills
in which he urges a preferential pri
mary is as follows;
“Eight years ago the Democratic
national committee, responding to
public sentiment throughout the
country, passed formal resolutions
making it illegal and improper to
send delegates to Democratic na
tional conventions, or to. Choose na
tional committeeman, without a
preferential primary throughoutJjtlie
states. At that time there Were
many active candidates for the Dem
ocratic presidential nomination in
the person of Woodrow Wilson, Os
car Underwood, Champ Clark and
others. Four years later the nation
al committee, in view of the fact
that President Wilson was seeking
a ren.omination without opposition,
permitted its own rule to lapse
without formal action, and prefer
ential primaries were not held.
“Nevertheless, it is the establish
ed rule of the Democratic party and
the correct rule, that national com
mitteemen, who voice the sentiment
of their respective states for four
years, should*be selected by popular
vote of their constituents, and that
the expression .of the party choice
for presidential nomination should be
obtained through preferential pri
maries. The rule in most Demo
! cratic states is about as follows:
Men seeking the position of national
| committeemen announce themselves,
. or their friends announce them, as
i candidates: their names* are placed
• upon the ballot; the voter indicates
j his preference by striking out those
i for whom he does not wish to vote,
i Democratic delegations to the nation-
■ al convention are selected about as
follows: Wherever from one to 500
registered voters present the name
of a candidate for the Democratic
nomination, and pay the entrance fee
required by the state executive com
mittee, the name thus presented is
placed on the ballot. : Q
“Early primaries are being held
in New Hampshire and Michigan.
In those states the method of choos
i ing the delegates is this: In each
! city, county or unit in which the
i state may be divided, delegate., are
- selected., from among the friends of
j the candidate-■ carrying the political
■ division or unit; these in turn go
to the state convention and votje -for
delegates favoring the candidates
who carried their respective coun
ties.
“It is undeniably the right of ev
ery Democratic voter of Georgia to
participate in the selection of the
next Democratic candidate. The
war is over, the censorship is re
moved, and the freest and fullest
expression of all the people is most
desirable.

dent Wilson has not ann.o|inced

whether he will be a candidate for
a third term, there is a hesitancy
on the par-t of candidates and their
friends to formally announce them
selves. There are but two an
nounced candidates at the present
writing. These are James W.
Gerard, former ambassador to Ger
many, and Governor Edwards, of
New Jersey. There are numbers
who think that if the president's
health is restored he will be a can
didate, and if his name is presented
by the requisite number of voters
it must be voted upon. Others men
tioned in connection with the Demo
cratic nomination are William Jen
nings Bryan, Attorney General A.
Mitchell Palmer, who has a large
backing amijng federal officeholders;
ex-Secretary William G. McAdoo,
who is believed to have the backing
to a very large extent of the rail
road and labor organizations; Gov
ernor James M. Cox, of Ohio, who
has twice carried a Republican
state; and Herbert Hoover, who has
been brought forward by the New
York World and other newspapers,
and whose pame will go on the bal
lot in the Democratic primaries in
New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
“In many respects the coming
presidential election will be the
most important in the history of the
United States. Issues and problems
of tremendous magnitude will con
front our president in the next four
years. The choice of a candidate
to carry the standard of the Demo
cratic party is too -important to be
decided by a caucus. The Democrats
of Georgia are entirely capable of
making their own choice among can
didates for the nomination, and they
have noU'authorized anybody else
to make it for them. Georgia’s del
egates ought to go to San Francisco
with definite instructions from the
Democrats of Georgia concerning
their candidate for the Democratic
nomination and concerning their
spokesman on the Democratic na
tional committee. Georgia’s repre
sentative on the national committee
speaks for the Democrats of his
state on issues of' natldnai' ’ frnpor
'tance' and 'Lis commission ought J tb
come direct from those he repre
sents.”

Says the World Will
Communicate With
Planets in Few Years
WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.—With
vthe hope of communicating with one
of the planets, Dr. James H. Rogers,
of Hyattsville, Md., inventor of the
.underground and through-water
wireless which was put into practi
cal use during the world war, an
nouced today he had established and
equipped a plant with wireless ap
paratus powerful enough to receive
messages of 150,000 meters wave
length’.
Recent undecipherable signals
suggested by William Marconi as
having originated in Mars were re
corded on instruments of but 100,000
meters wave length, Dr. Rogers said.
The average wave length used on the
earth, he aded, was about 20,000 me
ters.
Dr. Rogers said he had recently
noted on his instruments construct
ed for receiving messages of 50,000
meters wave length, numerous inter
ruptions extraneous in nature and
similar in gome respects to telephon
|ic electrical disturbances. He said
that the signals were unrecogniz
able, but claimed that in two months
time he probably would be able co
identify at least some of the vag
rant noises and predicted that in a
fev. years the earth would be in a
more-or less communicative position
with alleged terrestial human life.
