And William Gibbs McAdoo has sipped pink tea in the cretonne draped sun parlor of the fashionable Air hotel “ on The HiU and has : Tnounded his way around both golf E courses of the Augusta Country club, and has partaken of the hospitality of numerous warm friends in Au gusta, and so it is natural that he should not be forgotten when the talk turns to presidential nominees. As for Hoover, as stated above, there are plenty of strong admirers for him, also, and he would get a good vote in Augusta if the subcom mittee would do these good-natured Democrats the kindness to put his name on the ballot. As J. Frank Carswell, a prominent business man and formerly a member of council, genially remarked: "Lot of us here want to vote for Hoover, and we would like to know where Judge Flynt gets his authority to feed us his- particular brand of democracy out of his official spoon, p It is generally understood here that :■. he sent over to Thomas E.

What Is the ob ject of a preferential primary if it’s not to ascertain the preference of the Democrats? Whose preference should decide the question—the pref erence of those who compose the party or the preference of those who control the party? And if the pref erence of those who control the party is going to decide the question, who should be placed in control— those who are Democrats or those who are Populists? “Our Esteemed Bosses” “Some of our estemed Democratic bosses in Georgia seem to forget that forty-seven other states are go ing to vote in tfte presidential elec tion. They seem to forget that the south and the west, if joined to gether, will sweep the field. They seem to overlook the fact that Hoo ver is a western man of wonderful popuar appeal in the west. They seem to overlook the fact that wom en are voting in many states. Wheth er they favor suffrage or not, suf frage has arrived right extensively, and the women seem to favor Hoo ver. They have not forgotten the fact that Hoover reduced the cost of living while the war was in prog ress and enormous armies had to be fed—while Palmer did nothing but stigmatize the business men with the odium of profiteering and gave the public no relief. "Yes, it’s a pretty come-to-pass— this subcommittee headed by a Pop ulist disfranchising us who are Dem ocrats. As some editor remarked, what would they do if there was a petition to put Watson’s name on the ballot? Would they shut him out? They would not.” Among others with whom The Journal correspondent discussed pol itics were Inman Curry, city court solicitor; James M. Hull, another prominent young lawyer; Ben and Wallace Pierce, brothers composing a prominent law firm; Editor Thomas J. Hamilton and T. D. Murphy, of the Augusta Chronicle; Editor Bow dre Phinizy, of the Augusta. Herald; Archibald Blackshear, city attorney of Augusta; Rodney Cohen, promi nent lawyer, and, numerous others in addition to those quoted above. Generally speaking, the sentiment here with regard to the action of the sub-committee is one of outspoken disapproval. It would meet with favor here if the Democratic state executive committee in response to the widespread demand of Demo crats over the state, and in the in terest of harmony and good will in the party, should request the sub committee to rescind its arbitrary action with regard tff Hoover. Au gusta Democrats, as indicated, have different preferences, but they be lieve in fair play. And the sub committee's action has not the com plexion to them of fair play. GIVE US HOOVER, SAYS WASHINGTON CITIZEN WASHINGTON, Ga., Feb. 27. Editor The Journal: We want a clean-cut, honest candidate for pres ident; a man fearless alike of labor, capital and class, and unshackled by opinions of canting politicians. If we cannot find such a man in the Democratic party, then' let us find a man with these qualifications who is allied with no other party and run him as the Democratic can didate. The people of the country are thoroughly dissatisfied ar.d disgust ed with the charges and counter charges emanating from the old-line political cliques of both the Repub lican and the Democratic parties, and these leaders are trying to sup press the real sentiment of the peo ple, while fighting guerilla warfare among- themselves. Mr. Hoover’s refusal to ally him self with outgrown ar.d wornout tra ditions of politicians of both parties is in Itself a distinct recommenda tion; and we believe that he will give the Democratic party a govern ment for which the country will be grateful, The Democrats of Georgia want Mr. Hoover’s name on the ticket.

Senator Owen Pleads For Pact Adoption, IFith Or Without Reservations (The Atlanta Journal News Bureau) 623 Rigg's Building. BY THEODORE TILLEK WASHINGTON. March 10. —The peace treaty seemed in its death throes today as the senate set the stage for the final struggle on res ervations to article ten. Both sides Talked indefinitely of compromise, hut remained as far as ever apart. Disposition of the treaty, which in all probability will throw it into the presidential campaign, promises to come before the end of the week. President Wilson is unyielding and ii the senate late Tuesday afternoon Senator Lodge, leader of the opposi tion, served an ultimatum that the Republican side would never accept, article ten as it stands. Senator Owen, an adminstration supporter, furnished a development on the Democratic side by saying he did not propose to follow any leader to the defeat of the treaty and he was willing to vote for ratification either with the Lodge reservations, the Hitchcock reservations or the interpretative reservations referred to by the president. Senator Owen said it was futile to throw the treaty into the campaign, because it is im possible to elect a senate this fall that would ratify the treaty as writ ten. It would be a "ruinous handi cap,” he said, to enter the campaign on a “treaty without reservations” issue. Administration senators, while there was still talk of compromise, were handicapped by the fear that the president would fail to accept the' treaty with any sort of .Yeserva tions having what the senate con siders teeth in them. The president’s letter to Senator Hitchcock encour aged the fear. Absentee Republicans Summoned All the reservations, except that to article ten, were today out of the way. Senator Curtis, the Republican whip, sent telegrams to all absentee Republican senators requesting them to return to Washington Friday. This indicates the beginning of the end. There was no improvement shown in the treaty situation, A resume of the developments indicates the treaty, having been resurrected, is once more on its death bed and that its resuscitation and all the talk it brought on was in vain. Here are the high lights of the apparently hope less deadlock in the senate: Senator Lodge gave final notice that the Republican side would never accept article ten as wanted by the president. That article, he said, was one of "naked force.” The president, he added, had admitted as much in his letter to Senator Hitchcock and, Senator Lodge averred, "the issue can be veiled no longer.” By a vote of 57 to 20, the Repub licans, with the aid of seventeen Democrats, wrote into the treaty reservation No. 14, relating to equalization of the voting strength of Great Britain and the United States in the league. This reserva tion was a slight modification of the Lodge reservation as previously drawn. The group of a bare half dozen Democratic senators originally will ing to accept reservations has now grown to seventeen to nineteen. Senator Hitchcock is holding in line sufficient Democrats to join with the irreconcilables and defeat the ratification resolution—the Dem ocrats defeating it because they do not want the Lodge reservations, and the Republican bitter-enders because they do not want the treaty at all. So long as twenty to twenty-five Democrats stand with the president there cannot be ratification with "nullifying reservations.” The seventeen Democrats voting with the Republicans approximately represented the opposition strength on the minority side shown In sev eral previous notes. I>ast Chance Offered Republican forces are offering the Democrats a last chance to compro mise, as they say, on article ten. This move is evidently to put the Democrats and the president ip the attitude of refusing to compromise, transferring the onus for treaty de feat from G. O. P. to Democratic shoulders. Democratic leaders assert, how ever, that the “compromise offered is merely one of phraseology; that it makes no substantial concession and is the Lodge reservation in new dress. The Republicans so far have no assurances of recruiting additional votes on the minority side. That the president will pocket the treaty should it come to him with the so-called compromise reserva tion is the privately-expressed belief of Democratic leaders. No Way Out Seen Having gone thus far with the president, slightly more than a score qf Democrats seem willing to see the struggle through. At this point the progress seems again to refuse rati fication in the senate of a treaty con taining the Lodge reservations, in stead of ratifying and putting the president to the necessity of pocket ing the document. From no angle, consequently, does the treaty situa tion appear satisfactory today. The lineup is substantially the same it was in November. From the ultima tum of Senator Lodge on article ten, the exultant unyielding of the Re publican irreconcilables, on down the line to the steadfastness of the ad ministration Democrats who are still voting in harmony with the presi dent’s views, there seems no way out of the deadlock. The president’s letter to Senator Hitchcock was discussed at some length by Senator Lodge and it was in this speech that the majority lead er said: “There must be no obliga tion imposed on the United States to carry out the provisions of arti cle ten.” Senator Owen, Democrat, who has stood rather consistently with the administration’s forces, also discuss ed the president’s letter, and said he was now ready to vote for the treaty with or without reservations. Owen Opposes Delay “As far as I am concerned,” said Senator Owen, "as an American sena tor who for many years has ardently and. strenuously served my party and m country and supported the admin istration on all suitable occasions, I decline to assume the slightest re sponsibility for delay or defeat of the treaty. I refuse to be a party to the defeat of the treaty or its de lay. lam ready to support it in any form, to follow any leader Who leads to ratification, and I will not follow any leader who is leading to defeat and delay.” Senator Owen analyzed the va rious proposals regarding article ten and said he found little difference in the administration, opposition, or compromise suggestions regarding respecting and preserving the terri torial integrity of member nations. "It appears now to be the wish of the president to have his Demo cratic associates vote with the ir reconcilable opponents of the treaty, defeat the resolution of ratification, and make the “treaty without reser vations,” the issue of the next elec tion. "I should regard this as a great in jury to our domestic interests. The delay in establishing peace has help ed to raise, instead of helping to lower, the cost of living. The defeat CO-OPERATIVE CON LATEST DANGER TO THE PUBLIC CHICAGO.—Beware of co-opera tive con games! > This is the warning of Dalton T. Clarke, president of the National Co operative Wholesale, with headquar ters here. Confidence men with fraudulent co-operative schemes are fleecing people in all parts of the country, says Clarke. Taking advantage of the widespread interest in co-opera tion these fakers are traveling from city to city with wild-cat promotion plans. “Various schemes are being used,” says Clarke, “but they all have one thing in common. The promoter re ceives a portion of the stock —usual- ly 50 per 'ccensort—for organization. True co-operative enterprises are formed by ■ the stockholders them selves and there is no promotion cost.” The General Flan Although the methods of the con fidence co-operators differ in detail, in general the plan, according to Clarke, is as follows: People known to be interested in co-operation are sent circular letters. They are told of the immense profits of European co-operatives all of which accrue to the stockholders. At the proper time glib gentlemen gath-. er their prospective victims together and offer to organize a co-operative store. In payment for their services as promoters they are to receive a fat share of the first payments on stock. Often the promoters decamp as soon as they have their share of the stock sale funds, according to Clarke. Sometimes one of them stays as tem porary store manager. In this case a huge part of the first profit is taken for “operating and overhead” expen ses and finds its way to the pockets of the promoter and his confederates. Store Sometimes Used In some cities merchants have dis g-uised profit-making stores as co operative enterprises, Clarke declares. Most of these stores have offered discounts, rebates and profitsharing coupons under the guise of co-oper atives. "Such merchants have been a men ace to the co-operative movement,” avers Clarke, "because they h#Ve oft en disgusted people with co-opera tion and because in some cases they have been actual competitors of bona fide co-operative stores.” Usually the labor organizations of a city investigate the schemes of purported co-operators and can ad vise the promoters’ victims, says Clarke. In any case the nearest es tablished co-operative store or or ganization will be glad to investi gate any enterprise suspected of fake. The laws of some states forbid the use of the word "co-operative” to ad vance any enterprise not truly co operative. In other states the pro moters of co-operative con games can be prosecuted for obtaining money under false pretenses. Sentence of Disloyalist Commuted by Wilson WASHINGTON, D. C.—President Wilson has commuted the sentence of two years’ imprisonment of J. C. Seebach, of Rod Wing, Minn., for al leged disloyalty during the war. The additional penalty of a fine of $3,000, the department of justice announced today, was allowed to stand. of the treaty would injure American prestige abroad. "With the treaty without reserva tions or the treaty with reservations as the campaign issue, the discus sion of our vital domestic problems of reconstruction, the cost of living, monopolies, profiteering, etc., will be obscured, as behind a smoke screen, to the benefit of those selfish interests which have been taking uri just advantage of our people. "It will be impossible at the next election to elect a senate favorable to the treaty without reservations, and every well informed public man knows it, so that after the campaign t(ie treaty will be in no better posi tion relatively than it is now, and witji the ‘treaty without reserva tions’ as the issue, the Democratic party would have a ruinous handi cap.” Lodge’s Ultimatum Senator Lodge’s speech contained virtually final and positive notice from the Republican side of the chamber that article ten, as it stands, can never go into the peace treaty, which statement further emphasizes the deadlock between opposition and administration forces. Senator Lodge arose to a question of privilege to deny that he had said, as quoted in a morning newspaper, that the president’s letter to Sena tor Hitchcock carried “a delightful phrase about France.” The senator said he "would not have said this even in irony. However, he added, he did deprecate the president’s state ment that the militaristic party had since the peace conference gained ascendancy in France. He thought that statement of the president un fortunate and doubted its truth. Furthermore, Senator Lodge as serted he thought the president had said something about Italy that was “wholly uncalled for.” When he reached a discussion as article ten. Senator Lodge said: “I am not willing to trust to coun cil of diplomats the working out of any salvation of the world from things which it has suffered. The whole peace conference which framed the treaty and the league covenant. Was composed of diplomats; the re sult of their labors is an alliance, and every provision in the league covenant is left in the hands of dip lomats. Now the president says the salvation of the world must not be sought by the council of diplomats. I hat cuts out of- the treaty every provision in it except article ten and article ten is not diplomatic; it is an appeal to naked force. That is why we so much object to it; and that is why the country so much objects to it. It is naked force for which each nation is made individual ly responsible. There is not one ob jection which has been made by the most extreme opponents of the league and of article ten that is not admitted and advocated in the let ter of the president. Article ten is the one pure force article in the covenant. He discards all others and stands on that alone. It is well that he has said it, the issue can be veiled no longer, it justifies the position that we on this side, all alike have taken, that there must be no obligation imposed on the United States to carry out the provisions of article ten.” Value of Georgia Land Doubled in Five Years Georgia land values increased from 20 to 25 per cent during 1919, and are much more than double five years ago, according to the March summary of the co-operative crop reporting service, a union agency o the Georgia department of agriculture, J. J. Brown, commissioner, and bureau of cop estimates, Z. R. Bette, field agent. This increase is exceptionally remarkable in view of/the fact that the weevil has about completely infested the state. In many communities in other states the advent of this pest resulted in total demoralization. 'This is not the case in our state. A rise in value is noted in all classes of farm property but Is particularly marked in that having good improvements. Small Grain Reserve Never in the last decade has the percentage of last year’s grain crop been so small. This is due primarily to shortage of our standard forage crops making neces sary heavy inroads upon the standard grains, corn and oats. This is especially note worthy because it means that if any unusual attention is given to cotton the coming season, unusual quantities of feed stuffs will have to be imported to take care of our stock. Not only is the percentage on hand very low but corn is of much lower qual ity than usual. Grain on farms March 1, estimated, in thousands of bushels (i. e., 000 omitted): State of Georgia.

Active fiionths sold about 20 to 29 points below last night’s closing during the first few minutes but Liverpool was a good buyer, while there was a renewed commission house demand, owing to the continued wet weather in central and western belt sections and Wall street buying which was probably promoted by the strong opening in the stock market. May soon rallied from 35.73 to 35.94 and Octo ber from 30.50 to 30.70; The advance met realizing around 36.20 May and 30.97 for October, or about 18 to 37 points above last night’s closing fig ures. This caused reactions of 10 or 15 points from the best, but except for profit taking there was evidently no pressure against prices, and the market showed a generally steady tone early in the noon hour with active months ruling some 10 to 18 upoints net higher. A number of tiegrams were received reporting better labor condi tions in the south than last year and poiot ing to increased acreage but the continued unfavorable weather brought in scattered buying of new crops. Private cable advices reported the beginning of a strike today in French mills in the Roubaix and Tourcoing districts. The market showed increasing firmness during the middle of the afternoon, with May selling up to 36.23 and October to 31.15, or 20 to 45 points net higher on renewed covering and commission house buying.

May traded oft to 36.35 aand then reacted tp 36.59. Buying was' based on the wet weather over a good por tion of the belt, prospects of more rain to come and the strong tone of the foreign exchange market. The strength in the foreign exchange mai ket, especially in sterling, caused a buying movement which late in the morning car ried 15 to 30 points higher than the finals of yesterday, October showing the most ac tivity and widest gains and trading up to 30.80. The large export movement for the day, 30,499 bales, against 2,455 this day last year, and the fact that the bulk of the cotton went to Bremen and to Japanee port, created a new demand.
