PROVISION IN PEACE TREATY DE¬
MANDING PROSECUTION OF
KAISER BILL
TO ASK HOLLAND FOR WILLIAM
Court To Be Composed Of Five Judges
Representing Triple Entente,
U, S. And Japan
Paris.—A plenary session of th«
peace conference by the council of I
four presented the text of a peace I
treaty provision for the prosecution !
of former Emperor William by |
a |
court of five judges “for a supreme
aMTh, Tum'ti! y^o'
The court is to be composed of rep
f resentatives of the United States, It¬
aly, Great Britain, France and Ja
: pan. It will fix the punishment of
! the accused, whose extradition is to
be asked.
W. Hohenzollern To Be Arraigned
Washington.—Although the peace
conference in plenary session failed
bility to take for up the the question officials of here responsi- j j
war, are
unanimous in their belief that the j
peace treaty as delivered to the Ger¬
man plenipotentiaries will call for the
trial of William Hohenzollern, for
mer emperor of Germany, before a
court of the associated powers.
Trial of the former emperor for a
“supreme offense against interna¬
tional morality and the sanctity of
treaties,” the state department an¬
nounces has been included in the rec¬
ommendations of the peace confer¬
ence commission on responsibility.
These recommendation's are embod¬
ied in four articles, which were made
public by the state department with¬
out comment and which the commis¬
sion proposes to insert in the final
treaty.
The articles specify that the for¬
mer emperor is not to be tr&d “for
an offense against criminal law,” and
that the international trial court shall
be composed of five judges, one to be
appointed by each of the five great
powers, Great Britain, United States,
Japan. Italy and France. It ie fur¬
ther provided that the associated gov¬
ernments shall request Holland to de¬
liver up the former emperor
Not alone though will the head of
the house of Hohenzollern be tried,
but the commission’s recommenda
lions provide that all persons accused
of acts in violation of the internation¬
al rules of warfare, shall be brought
before international tribunals and if
found guilty shall be given the pen¬
alties of international law.
THERE is NOT “ONE
REASON” UNDER THE
SUN FOR HIGH PRICES
This Is Statement Made By Chief
Statistician Douglas To Great
Commercial Convention
St. Louis.—High prices continue
without “the slightest reason under
the sun,” A. W. Douglas of St. Louis
chief statistician of the chamber of
commerce of the United States, told
the representatives of a thousand
American trade organizations in con¬
vention here. He added that there
had been already some decline, and
declared that the law of supply and
demand should be given freedom of
operation, and, if so, the decline
would continue until a normal level
was reached.
Then, in touching on transporta¬
tion and its effect on business, he
brought the delegates to their feet
in a burst of applause when he de¬
clared that the “unfortunate state to
which transportation has fallen under
government control, is a splendid
example of incompetence and extrav¬
agance.” the national
In speaking before
councillors of the chamber, which
took up a score of American busi¬
ness problems to be submitted to the
general convention Mr, Douglas point¬
ed to the government estimate of nine
hundred million bushels of winter
wheat, declared there would be more
grain available for export than our
ships could move, and added that
there is more live stock in the coun¬
try than ever before.
Wire Service Put Up To Congress
Washington—The government is
preparing to relinquish control of
American cable lines and to restore
the telegraph and telephone systems
to private ownership immediately af¬
ter enactment by congress of laws
necessary to safeguard the proper¬
ties. Postmaster General Burleson,
as directing head of the extensive
wire communication service taken
over as a war measure, announces he
has sent to President Wilson a rec¬
ommendation tii at the cables be turn¬
ed back forthwith.
Peace League Charter Is Adopted
i Paris.— The covenant of the league
of nations, in revised form, moved
by President Wilson, was adopted by
the peace conference in plenafr ses¬
sion. without a dissenting vote. The
president’s motion also named Sir
James Eric Drummond as secretary
general of the league, and provided
for a committee to inaugurate ths
league. Thus, one of the notable
works of the conference passes its fi¬
nal stage and is Incorporated in the
pane* treaty.
Seek tfof* ShffMtt For Dixti Fttta
Savannah.—Benefits to tie derived
from a greater use of south Atlantic
ports and claims of the southeast to a
greater share in the nation’s foreign
trade, were presented to the shipping
board in Washington by a delegation
composed of senators, state represen¬
tatives and the South Atlanta Mari¬
time association. All location of at
least 14 ships to trade routes between
Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah,
Brunswick and Jacksonville and South
American ports was asked. The ship¬
ping board was told that interior cities
in the southeast were eager to estab¬
lish direct relations with pan-America
through the inauguration of steam¬
ship service from ports near them. All
of the arguments were beard by the
commissioners with close attention
and it was indicated that action on the
request would be taken at an early
date. The members of the board wore
told at the outset that it would not be
necessary to dwell in detail on the
commercial possibilities of the south
east, because It was well known that
the section had tremendous resources,
development of which would redound
to the benefit of the entire nation.
Lack of transportation would retard
the normal growth of the section, it
was said, forestalling the normal in¬
dustrial development which is inevit¬
able, due to the rail and water conges¬
tion in the east.
Money for Pension* Provided
Atlanta.—Govrnor Dorsey has tem¬
porarily diverted the state road fund
amounting to $219,000 to help pay the
pension appropriation which falls due
on May 1. The tax returns from the
various counties which showed an in¬
crease over the amount estimated by
the state treasurer, has helped the
financial condition of the state so ma¬
terially that Governor Dorsey found it
unnecessay to utilize his borrowing
power of $300,000. There is a balance
in the, treaseury of $478,507.57 in the
state treasury, which, combined with
the road fund, makes a total or $697,-
507.57. The pensions amount to $627,-
510 and the balance in the treasury
alter paying the amount will be $69,
997 57.
German Cannons At Camp Jessup
Atlanta.—German cannons, which at
Chateau Thierry thundered death to
hundreds of valiant Americans, but
failed to stop the charge that deeided
the fate of the world, have arrived at
Camp Jessus. These are the first to
arrive in this section and the me¬
chanic* at Camp Jessus are examin¬
ing them with great curiosity. Still
bearing the signs of war, and wearing
the coat of paint that was given them
to hide them from the eyes of the
American sharpshooters, they bring
a new message from the battlefields
that is expected to give the Liberty
Loan campaign an additional boost
Show Wireless Control of Airplanes
Macon.—The first demonstration in
the south of the radio wireless control
for a fleet of airplanes will take place
in Macon during the southeastern
aeronautical congress which will be in
session here May 2-10. Visitors to the
congress will be permitted to give
commands to a fleet of five machines
flying high In the air and then they
will witness the immediate response
to their order.
Coweta Votes For Bonds
Newnan—By a majority so over¬
whelming that It might almost be con¬
sidered unanimous, the voters of Cow¬
eta county put themselves on record
for immediate and tar-reaching road
improvement when in the whole coun¬
ty', 1.587 votes were cast for the propos¬
ed issue of $480,000 of bonds and only
46 aainst it. All of the fourteen votr
ing precincts of the county were for
bonds by large majorities.
Will Rebuild Country Club
Moultrie.—The club house of the
Moultrie Country Club, which was de¬
stroyed by fire several weeks ago,
will be replaced with a new and bet¬
ter building, officials of the club an¬
nounce. A swimming pool, tennis
court and other attractions will be
added to the club property, which
lies just south of the city limits.
Commander Rader In Charge
Americus.—Lioutnnaat Oaiaael Ir*
A. Rader, new commander of the
post at Souther Plaid, has arrived.
E. S. Schafield has been In
command since the death of Lieuten¬
ant Colonel F. T. Dickman, who with
Major John W. Butts, execative of¬
ficer, was killed In »n airplane acci¬
dent The mew commander is one ef
the oldest flyers in the army.
Rescue Workers Granted Certificate
Alanta.—The Public Welfare Board
of Atlanta has granteda certificate
of approval to the American Rescue,
Workers, with headquarters in Phil¬
adelphia, Pennsylvania, and with
Adjutant and Mrs. W. E. Sextoa are
in charge of the work for the state of
Georgia.
Bonds Lose Out In Atlanta
Atlanta.—Atlanta voters, at the polls
defeated the proposition to inorease
the tax rate from $1.25 to $1.60, in
order to secure needed additional rev¬
enue for the city, and the $1,000,006
bond issue for improvements at the
waterworks, motorization of the fire
department, erection of a new build¬
ing for the cyclorama, and the estab¬
lishment of an electric plant at the
crematory. Every item of the bond
Issue was lost, and the tax restoration
was killed by a majority of 881 vote*.
Music Supplies
The public has never realized
more fully the beneficial influ¬
ence of MUSIC than it is doing
at the present time; and that the
only way to create a music lov¬
ing public and build up a musical
education is to have music in
the home.
There are many people who
want music in their homes, but
don't know just what to buy or
where to buy it. If you were
sick, you would go to some one
who knew medicine to diagnose
your needs and prescribe the
proper remedy. You are sick for
music in the home: then go to
J. W. HENDERSON, “THE MU¬
SIC MAN,” MANSFIELD, GA.,
who will take a special interest
in supplying you with the best
and correct kind of musical in¬
strument, whether it be a piano,
organ or phonograph—or the
the best Song Book.
The spiritual condition of our
our HOMES, CHURCHES and
SUNDAY SCHOOLS largely de¬
pends .upon the character of
the songs that we sing. The
songs that we sing are in the
booki« that we buy. So, if we
would have the best character
of music, we must buy the best
BOOK. The best criterian to go
by in getting a song book is one
edited and published by a man
who has a National reputation
as a Gospel Singer and song wri¬
ter. For such a book, I recom¬
mend “AWAKENING SONGS’ 1
