BIG FORCE TO
WEIGH MAILS
WILL BE EMPLOYED
Government Preparing To
Employ 509 Men In
Georgia
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 2.—Th^fact that
the government Is preparing to era
ploy 500 men In Georgia and other
southern states to weight the mail
hauled by the railroads, has centered
public attention on the fight the roads
have been making for better pay for
carrying Uncle Sam's post.
SEVENTEEN MEN
ASSASSINATEI
IN ALABAMA TOWN
And No Arrests—People
Afraid To Take
Action
The contention has been a lively
one. The railroads declare that al
though the volume of mall has dou
bled the past twenty-five years, the
railroads are not getting any more
money, and that tfce amount now
paid them for hauling the mails la
not nearly just or adequate.
The process of weighing the mails
takes place every four years. The
government spends $100,000 In this
work. For the next three months the
mails will be weighed regularly on
trains n Georgia, and from tbe statis
tics thus obtained the government will
decide how much to pay the railroads
for the next four years.
The railroads have been kicking
strenuously over this method, con
tending that they get nothing at all
four years interim, and that the mails
ought to be weighed at least every
two years.
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 2.—A reign
of terror exists in the vicinity of Lew
isburg and Arcadia, four miles north
of Birmingham, as a result of a recent
assasinatlon for which no arrests
have been made, because it is reported
the entire community is lntlmldatea
into not giving information.
Six white men and eleven negroes
have been slain in the section within
the last six months. Six of the ne
groes have been killed within the last
six days. An average of one a day has
been maintained since last Saturday.
Deputy sheriffs have received black
hand letters ordering them not tn ap
proach the section, but steps were
taken today by the sheriff which it is |
believed will result in a sensational
raid and clean-up tomorrow or Satur
day.
