OF STATE EDITORS IN LAVONIA Premier Says Government Is Against « Anv New BnRu t« Rnnia,. tu. Georgia Press Association Any New Body To Replace The Reparations Commission Senlia, France.—-Premier Poincare proclaimed the French government’s unalterable decision resolutely to stand for the complete execution of the Versailles Peace Treaty with the German debt at 132,000,000..000 gold, marks as agreed upon by the allies at the London conference and against any international financial committee to replace the reparation commission. M. Poincare said France had done with making concessions to Germany. She was tired of temporising with that country. The premier's strongly worded address, while carefully re fraining from mentioning the speech of Stanley Baldwin, the British prime minister, in the house of commons, last week, is considered as the French government’s prelimniary answer to the British position with regard to the occupation of the Ruhr. M. Poincare chose for his pro nouncement this town, which marks the farthest advance of the Germans and where the latter executed hos tages, placed civilians in the line of the French fire and burned part of the town in reprisal against alleged civil resistance. The. premier based his conclusions on France’s legal right: under the treaty "signed by 28 na tions and which cannot be considered after four years as an antedeluvian fossil." M. Poincare professed to have no hatred and no spirit for revenge for! the devastation, the traces of which' were visible from where he spoke. ‘W should like no longer to talk of devastation or to think of It," he de clared. "Wo should like to forget—; even to forgive." } France, said M. Poincare, had Been ao better treated In reparations than' In the concessions wrong from her and the security denied her. "In the reparation commission, un- established under the treaty/* he! said, "we are in the minority, al4 though ours is the major interest' Nevertheless it has been sought for. four years to relieve this commission] ®f its powers, to replace it with ln* ! ternational financial committees so as .to attempt to coalesce against inter ests opposed to ours." To Canonize Elizabeth Ann Seton Washington.—A devout woman who] vent about doing good among the pi- rneers of the country nearly 100 years igo was in the thoughts of Catholic people all over the country July 1— Mother Elizabeth Aim. Seton, founder >f the Sisters of Charity. Another step towards canonization of Mother 5eton as a saint—sought by American Catholics—was taken when a letter 'rom Archbishop Michael J.

Catholics, Will Be Entertained In Toccoa Prior To Lavonla Sessions Toccoa.—Under the auspices of the Kiwanls club, the city of Toccoa will be host to the Georgia Press Associa tion Monday, July 16,- and arrange ments now are being completed for the entertainment of the visitors. The press convention this year will be held in Lavonla and it already has been arranged for the entire delega tion to stop over in Tofccoa for the day. A committee consisting of Rob ert Graves, editor of the Toccoa Rec ord; Dr. Jee Davis and Edmund Wroo is busy completing the program. A luncheon will be held at Toccoa Falls. This is considered one of the beauty spots of this section. The water is said to fall from a height twenty-six feet higher than Niagara Falls. A ♦swimming party In Iho pool at the foot of the falls will be another feature. Following this, a visit will be made to the city water station three miles from town on top of a mountain. Next will follow an inspection of the $5,000,000 dam under construc tion by the Georgia Railway and Power company.

A ride to the mountains near Toc coa, a ball game and then a return trip to Lavonla through *.ho country in automobiles will complete the day's entertainment. VILLA CAPTURED MORE WOOD CONSUMED HERE IRAN IN ANY OTHlR COUNTRY The United States uses more wood .than any o the i country. In fact the eonsumption in this coun try equals about two-fifths of the eptire consumption of the world, or, expressed in round figure?, about .22 x /t billion cubic feet, de clares the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. The per capafca t consumption in this country is 21& cubic feet, of which 110 cubic feet, or a little more than half, is saw timber, and the balanoe consists of cordwood, continues the report, which was recently printed for public distri bution. ! v Including losses by fire, insects and disease; the total drain on the country’s forests is close to 25 million cubic feet. At the pres ent time this country is growing only about 6 million oubie feet. However, according to data con tained in the report, if the entire forest area of the country—some 470,000,000 acres—were placed under intensive forestry about 27 billion feet of timber could be ul timately be produced each year. This amount would exceed the present drain on our forests by a relatively small margin.

Author Of Threatening Notes Jailed Martinez, Calif.—Albert Sans, con fessed author of letters threatening Mabel Normand and Mack Sennett and "confessing” the murder of Wil liam Desmond Taylor, was arrested at Bay Point near here. The police believe they may be on the threshold, of the solution df the famous murder mystery surrounding the death of the movie director, which has baffled Los Angeles authorities. They are uncer tain, however, whether the letters which led to the arrest of Sans are to be classed as the ravings of a mad man or the product of the mind of a man driven to desperation by a guilty conscience.
