TAKE UP PEACE WORK
RlS'iMAS MEETING OF
WOMAN’S CLUB FRIDAY
Great Britain Ready for Indus
trial Change-Over.
Huge Munitions Plants Prepared for
Switch to Peace-Time
Operations.
Special Program Has Been Arranged
for the Occasion and a Large Atten.
dance Will Be Expected to Be
Present.
London.—England lias her plans all
laid for the great industrial change
over.
There are about 5,000 large concerns
which have been engaged in munitions
work.
These factories have been prepar- ^
lng for months for the “quick change” j
and are ready to switch to peace-time
operations immediately.
Munitions Is by no means the only
branch of Industry where sharp read
justments will be necessary. But the
same statement of preparedness holds
true generally.
The ministry of reconstruction,
which lias been operating for more
than a year, and which has made an
extensive survey of the industrial
problem, hns aided manufacturers
who have been engaged on war work
in the preparations for the advent of
peace. And it has worked out plans
for converting many government-op
erated plants into production of ma
terials which will be sorely needed.
To show how extensively the minis
try has worked, 20 subcommittees of
experts have completely surveyed as
many parts of the neighboring field
and have drawn up plans for the
change over, which have been placed
at the disposal of the Industrial chiefs.
Demobilization pinna have been
given careful atndy, and, while the of
ficial report has not yet been Issued,
It If known that it provides for dis
banding by the needs of different
trades, and not by military units. Men
with large families will also be re
leased early.
The ministry of reconstruction has
dwelt particularly on the possibility
of development of Industries making
articles formerly Imported from Ger
many—such as electrical apparatus,
hardware, stamped metal and tele
phone apparatus.
And It Is flatly stated that "Britain
ta going to make a lot more of these
things for herself after the war.”

Washington, Dec. 9.—General good
health in most of the large Industrial
centers of the country, with demand
for labor equalling or exceeding the
supply arc reported in telegrams to
the United States employment service
from community labor boards in 34
states.
For the week ending December 6
reports were received from 6,000 em
ployers employing over 3,000,000 men
in 109 manufacturing districts. In
some parts of the southern states
there ia a considerable shortage of
labor. Birmingham reports a heavy
shortage, while at Mobile the supply
just equals the demand. Atlanta re
ports a heavy shortage. Throughout
Florida shortages are reported _ with
shipyard conditions at Pensacola un-
•It will be but a few days after
Christmas before Milledeville will
have a new up-to-date hospital, ac-
cordin to Information just coming to
the hands of The News.
For several months plans have been
under way for the erection and equip
ment cf the institution and had It
not been on account of the recent
epidemic of influenza the work would
have probably been completed by
this time.
The hospital with supplies and all
equipment will be purchased at an
early date, and complete arrangemnts
will be gone into b ythe stockholders
shortly after Christmas or probably
before.
The building on Green street now
occupied by the cadets of the Georgia
Military College will be turned into
the hospital. This was formerly an
apartment house with large rooms.
The building is two stories hight.
Look What the T elegraph Business
Has Come to Under Mr. Burleson
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 9.—If a telegram
sent a dh yor two days prior to its
delivery comes in the morning mail,
there is no ground for complaint on
the part of the recipient. A case of
a "telegram sent from Baltimore and
received in Atlanta Saturday night at
12:15 o’clock by the Western Union,
delivered by a mail carrier at 10
o’clock Monday momln and bearing
a 2-cent postage stamp ( wes referred
to the State Railroad Commission this
morning. The prompt reply from the
commission tfas that It has no juris
diction. The handling of telegraphic
matter is, it says, in the hands of the
government.
Postmaster General Burleson, says
the state commission, has given di
rection that such telegrams, upon
arrivel at their point of destination.
may be mailed to the tddressee
stead of bein gdelivered by carrier
has always been the case heretofc
and there Is no ground on which th
state commission can handle such
case. This action, the commissio.
say S> is but a part of the plan origin
ated and outlined by Postmaster (let
oral Burleson of bringing the post
office department and the telegraphs
system into closer operation, even t
the extent of operating them from th
same building.
All night letter telegrams, therefor
may, under Mr. Burleson’s order, t
mailed! whe nthey reach the office
intended delivery, even though It tak
such a mailed telegram just as ion
to reach . the party addressed
would take a letter to reach him from
the point Of origin.

Hypodermic Syringe In Crime.
Du Challlon, who Invented the hy
podermic syringe, seems to have been
n sort of Fagln. He established In
Paris a school of crime from which
such youngsters as “Charley Bates”
and the “Artful Dodger” graduated.
Stimulated by an Injection of mor
phine or some other drug, they went
out to do great deeds In the criminal
line. When the “school" was raided
the principal escaped, but evidence
was found to show his part In some
daring crimes. Physicians attached
to the criminal bnreau saw the great
advantage of the hypodermic syringe,
and It has ever since been a recog
nized agency In medical practice.
Friends of Mrs. J. C. Wilkinson will
be glad to learn that she is improving
from a recent operation. She re
turned to Milledgeville Tuesday.
