TUESDAY AFTERNOON. AUGUST.' SAtABLE HOGS ARE , SCARCE IT ATLANTA Review of Live Stock Market Shows Beef Cattle Supply Has Been Liberaly Supplied ATLANTA, August s.—The fol iowig is a review of the Atlanta live stock market of the week ending August 2, issued by the Market Service of the Bureau of Agricul tural Economics, and made public here today Cattle, liberal supplies of severe ly plain, thinly fleshed grass cattle held mostly matured classes to slow steady basis during the past week. I’acker outlet reflected a degree of strength but most city butchers bought sparingly after mid-week. Light vealers were rather plentiful early in the week and someewhat, in excess of trade requirements Some holdings were forwarded to other points in an effort to avoid price concessions. A few head of low medium beef steers reached $6.50, but such kinds were relatively scarce and most sales of common grass steers were recorded around $4.50 and $4.75. Strictly fat cows cashed at $5.50 and $6.00, with common butcher grades from $3.50 to $4.50. Canners and cutters comprise a lib eral quota of the supply at hand and sold mostly from $2.00 to $3.50, the latter price taking several mix ed lots of cutters and common but cher cows. Canners ranged from $2.00 to $2.75. Top calves regis tered $6.50, bulk $5.00 to $6.50, common to medium grades in small lots $4.00 to $5.00. Hogs receipts estimated at 1,900 for week including no salable sup plies for the local market. Quota tions are, therefore, strictly nomi nal. In the absence of actual sales, the market is quoted all the way from SB.OO to $9.50, for best 160 to 250 lbs., averages, acording to the judgment of members of the trade. > HIM. SESSION measure is pm L (Continued From Page One) F sion period, convened today to grap ple with the piece de resistance of its last few remaining days, better known on the calendar as the bien uiaf sesisong biii Spurred to determination to dis pose of the measure by days of debate well-spiced with charges and counter-charges, supporters and op ponents arrived in the chamber to listen to the residue of legislative opinion of the proposed law which would convene the assembly once every two years instead or annually ns at present. Following this speech-making a vote w.ll decide the destiny of the amendment, at least insofar as this session is con cerned. Th e biennial bill already has pass ed the senate and advocates in the house were confident the lower branch would place its stamp of approval on it, making it a law, un less of course, the governor vetoes it. In both branches if the legis lature such an eventuality is re garded as unlikely. As the proposed bill is a consti tutional amendment, a twothirds majority is required-—l3B being the number of votes necessary to as sure passage. A full attendance was indicated shortly before the house convened, thereby insuring that a voting majority would be present to decide on the measure. Supporters hav e charged that an nual sessions have proved a waste of time, to say nothing of the money extravagance incurred; while opponents have flung back the charge that “big interests” are backing tn e new bill in order to pre vent annual sessions. Advocates, denying categorically these insinu ations, have taunted the opposition by setting forth that of the forty eght states in the Union, only four -—Georgia, South Carolina, New lork and Massachusetts—are enter taining annual assemblies, and point out that of these four South Caro lina will this fall endeavor to sub stitute the biennial for the yearly convention of its legislature.

The other is arbitration of the question whether financial maneuvers are taking place in Germany to defeat the functionng of the Dawes plan. to On technical grounds both of these objections would have to be considered, according to the Anwr icna expert, who is considered to have the greateset experience of the Dawes plan.

Similarly, technical objections could be raised on the other point, but this would be an admission that financial maneuvers to frustrate the provisions of the Dawes plan art going to ta|e place in Gremany. Despite th' absence of the moral grounds for objection to the work work of the Interallied conference, the Americans believe these two points will b - raised by Dr. Stresse mann, the German foreign minister, unless an agreement is reached be tween the Allies and Germany on the question of military evacuation of the Ruhr. If a satisfactory set tlement is 'forthcoming on this is sue, the belief prevails that th< Germans will not mention other technical issues.

FiLfflWfm IBIS HEADING (Continued from Page One.) clearly was reflected in his inner mental life through a series of fantasies, the witness said. ‘He began dreaming of suffering He told me at great length of the king-slave fantasy, in which some times he was king and Loeb slave; and sometimes vice versa. The slave was a person who always was made to suffer. He could get his liberty, but he always refused it. As time went on he was bound ; to his king a chain. Other til :cs i he had a fantasy about the king pe ing beaten. Or he would dream that as a boy he was captured in wartime and made slave by a king Sometimes he dreamed of being made a slave by nice young girls. All through these fantasies the idea of suffering cropped up.” “This image life developed early Why, even last year his aunt no ticed that he frequently would lie ■ down and dream. He was having , these peculiar fantasies during this i period, he told me. “These fantasies of both L°o i pold and Loeb had an enormous in | fluence on their lives,” Dr. Healy 1 continued. "The normal fantasies of people are carried out iq their r THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDEJI efforts to express their ambitions. “Any boy w'ho was good lookng would appeal to Leipold and he im mediately would embody the boy in his dreams,” the witness continued. ‘The boy would be eligible for the slave role in his fantasy he would plan capturing th e boy and brand ing him. “For this operation Leopold had dreamed of a special kind of a brand a peculiar design highly sig nificant of abnormality in itself. When Dr. Healy reached the pcr ton of his testimony dealing with their pact, an element in the case hitherto carefully concealed by th a defense, Leopold and Loeb became noticeable nervous. They twisted about to avoid meeting the gaze of friends and relatives sitting near them. Justce Caverly appeared as tonished by what h e had read. Thereafter, until the close of the session, he frequently arose from his seat and spent minutes at a time watching the defendants. NEIGHBORS WANT PAIR HANGED GRIFFIN, Ga„ August 5. Neighbors of Nathan Leopold, Jr., •and Richard Loeb, in trial in Chi cago for the kidnaping and murder of young Robert Franks want them hanged, according to Miss Eliza beth Norman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Norman, Griffin girl who has been studying at the Chi cago Conservatory of Music. Miss Norman lived for six weeks within a stones’ throw of the Franks, Leopold and Loeb homes. She stayed in the same block where the Franks family lived on one corner and the Leopold a short dis tance away. Mrs. I.eob, a gentile was a close friend of Mrs. Franks and visited her after the murder, offering sympathy, says Miss Norman. And before the confession Richard Loeb was about to become a pall-bearer at the funeral of Franks, who was his first cousin. Both of the millionaire’s sons were well liked in the neighborhood before the murder, Miss Norman said. Feeling now is general that they should be condemned to die.

FOLLETTE PARTY lAIBEWW (Continued from Page One.) in protest against the platforms and policies of the two old parties, it is none the less true that there is an underlying hope, even an expecta tion, that a new national party will be born of the struggle in the com ing campaign. Although such a new party might properly be classed as ‘liberal,” with both old parties grouped un der the deginition of ‘conservative,’ it is unlikely that any coalition be tween the remaining groups in tne Republican and Democratic parlies could be effected which would unite them under a common head against the new “liberal” The result would be that for an □definite period at least, three major parties instead of two would contest for supremacy in every na tional election. The result of a tri-party, instead of a bi-party, system would intre duce difficulties that, of long con fined might force far-reaching changes in our elective machinery and legislative processes. For instance: Should there ,be three strbng permanent parties, it would be virtually impossible lor any presidential candidate ever to obtain a majority in the electoral college. This would force, ultimately, t» change in the method of electing the president—possibly direct elec tions, instead of through the Have Proven Your father and grandfather knew and trusted Wintersmith's Chill Tome, met as mothers and fathers of today know and use it with absolute confidence.
