PAGE EIGHT RADITCH IS AGAIN POWER IN BALKANS New Jugo-Slavia Cabinet Causes Greece, Italy, Bulgaria and Hunary to Change Plans London—A very old and ver’ weary gray-beardyd man spoke to his secretary; , “Prepare a letter to the jailor re leasing Stepan Paditch. Prepare another to His Majesty giving my list of new cabinet ministers. Have them ready for my -ignature in half an hour. Then I am off to a watering place for the cure.” The speaker was Nicholas Pa chitch, eighty-three , greatest states man in Jugoslavia, and many times prime minister. The historis scene was the summary and dramatic end of the greatest crisis in the history of the big new state which com prises all the southern slavs. The man released was the famous leader of the Croats who has kept the triure kingdom in an uproar for five years. The peace cabinet thus formed by the venerable statesman heals inter nal dissent. In Balkan and Euro pean affair now Yugosaviia will bulk more importantly than before. Get the picture. The afterwar peace treaties united Serbita, mainly Greek Orthodox, with the Croats and Slovenes, who are mainly Ro man Catholics. The Serbs have been a balkward people. The, Croats have been a forward-looking people. The Serbs had Belgrade, a lax city in many ways. The Croats had Zagreb, a progressive up-to-date, business town. The Serbs began to centralize all power at Belgrade. The Croats; complained that Zagreb was taxed but slighted. Then a book-seller of Zagreb, j Senan Raditch, formed a pcwreful party in Croatia and made up largo- ’ ly of peasant farmers. He made a disturbing demands for automony. if not independence for Croatia. Paehitrich came back into power. Last January he clapped Raditch and five of his lieutenants in jail on charges of sedition and being in correspondence with the Bolshev iks. ( Nevertheless Raditch’s friends , swept all before them in the parlia-j mentary elections in Croatia. But old Pachitch again took action. He got ready to invalidate the election of every Croat peasant party mem -' ber. In the meantime. Paul Raditch, i nephew of the imprisoner Stepan, f on behalf of the party, recanted re- j publicanism, accepting the constitu tion and the royal family. After that things moved swiftly i Old Stepan was released, his follow- I ers were allowed to sit in the Par liament and four of Stepan’s men got jobs in the cabinet. When Step- , an got out of jail he immediately 1 went to Bled to pay personal horn-I age to the King. Next he cal’ed on i Pachitch. And finally issued a. message to the country fully accept- | ing things as they are, and payed ' tribute to the work of pacification , the King and his prime minister I had accomplished. That’s why Pachitch can go away ! on holiday with a peaceful mind. | Yugoslavia is now' a united country. I And that is making the statesmen of Italy, Greece. Bulgaria and Hun gary sit and change all their plans. For the real union of the Serbs and Croats makes their country the predominant power in the Balkans. I Women’s I Peace-of-Mind under trying hygienic conditions is assured this NEW way I - . A DANCE, a sheer gown to b.' worn; a difficult hygienic situ ation. You need no longer give ti ts complication a second thought. The hazards of the old-time sani tary pad have been supplanted with a protection both absolute and ex quisite. It is called “KOTEX” ... five times as absorbent as ordinary cot ton pads. Absorbs and deodorizes at the same time. Thus ending ALL fear of offending. You discard it as easily as a piece of tissue. No laundry. No embar nssment. You get it for a few cents at any drug or department store simply by saying “KOTEX.” Women ask for it witho«rt hesitancy. Try Kotex. Comes 12 in a package. Proves old ways an unnecessary risk. ,K O T € X Ns iawndry dricurd like cusue * She’s Mat Champ w i■ h 1 I i I 1 W ;• ? j : •' ’• •' -jF s',•J ■" Molly Reviluck of Wichita, Kan., who claims to be the woman heavy weight champion of the world, is peeved because her home town bars wrestling by women, despite her re peated efforts to change the law.

REALTY BOARD MOVES SATISFACTORILY TOWARD COMPLETION tContrnve,’ frcin Page Ctv” to place in the office and handle the I ness of the corporation. The desirability of the realty board and the chamber of com merce occupying the same offic •• was discussed and it was the sense of the members that if possible such an arrangement would work to the advantage of both. | “Our funds are limited and the funds of the chamber of commerce will be limited and we should there of ore cut every corner; make every possible saving,” Stephen Pace said. “By joining with the chamber of commerce if a suitable location can be secured we will save in overhead expense. This organization, as well as others dealing in real estate should be housed under one roof. 1 it seems to me that we may have the utmost co-operation between real estate men and coordinate all our efforts. Mr. Pace said. A number of talks were made along this line, all seemingly fav oring the housing of the chamber of commerce and the realty board and others dealing in real estate in one place, if such is possible. 25 acre model from was suggest-, ed by R. P- Stackhouse, located; somewhere near the city where it . could easily be seen by an yone coming into the county looking for farm lands. I Statement o? PLAINS BANK Plains, Ga.

Photographs made there would aid in sales at all seasons of j the year. Chairman Hollis Fort said he had j been thinking along that same line I and believe that a model farm would be built “for much less than you would suppose.” Representative A. E. Hines said he thought the realty board on» of the “best movement ever started” , in the county and that he was for it —strong. i A committee composed of Chair man Hollis Fort, Stephen Pace and Hilliard Williams were instructed to go into all legal phases of the board and see that«he application for charter, as vail as other things, were to be done absolutely legally J that not the least possibility of a' mistake be made now or later in the incorporation. Most of the men present had something to say in the general dis cussion as to the future operations of the board.

Some asked the question because they, themselves had taken.an ac- ; tuai and mental vacation this past I week. They wondered if others | had, too. Misery loves company, j you know. Others asked the ques ii tion because they were hitting the ball with good results and hoped competitors were sleeping. Yes. “They" Are Working | The answer is that “they” have | been turning in much this week. , However, the “they” referred to in ■j most cases, consists of participants 1 who, in the past, have not averaged Iso high in rank. “They” have awakened while some others, ap , parently content with past perform , ance, were content to lingers along and gloat over their good work. It is not what you did last period that is going, to win for you' Just store this statement away and I remember it. And the reason is be-. j cause of the closeness of the race. ; Without the splittnig of hairs, it is , impossible to tell who today’s lead er is in any district. Those who constitute the first division of the scores, that is the leaders and im mediate rufiners-up, are on such I even terms that the race will be de-, cided on the future activity or ; inactivity of the several partici- ' pants.

If the subscription is a new one there are 40,000 bonus votes >; on each new year, or 240,000 votes. , i The sum of 290,000 votes and •: 240,000 votes is 530,000 votes. A ' i six year subscription by carrier sells i ■ for $46.80 and by mali for $36. ! For every “club” of subscriptions turned in 100,000 extra votes are H given. A “club” is sl2 in sub • ’ scriptions. A six year subscription, : ■ then, counts lamost four clubs. Four i clubs means 400,000 votes. Add this to the 530,000 and we. have a total of around 930,000 votes for a six year subscription, this big vote period. All new subscriptions this period entitle partciipants to a bonus vote i of 40,000 for each new year. A one year subscription this big vote ' period counts 8,000 votes. Four will count 32,000 votes. A one- year subscription sells for $7.80 by car ■ tier and $6 by mail and is more ■ than one club. That means 100,000 extra votes. .So four renewal sub scriptions for a year will credit you 132.000 votes. If the four are new | then there are four bonuses of j 40,000 each or 100,000. This added to the 132,000 brings the total 292,000 votes. Ten one-year new subscriptions this period will credit any participant with all of 780,900 votes. All subscriptions this period, whether old or new, are valuable
