Doctors and medicine did me no good. It seemed that 1 was beyond all hope of relief, when at last 1 secured a preparation that cured me sound and well. Over 10 years have passed and the attacks have not returned. I wish every one who suffers from this terrible disease would write R. P N.

GARY DENOUNCES AGITATORS UNDER GUISE OF ‘LABOR’ IKK " •-* i.w —'»■■■ NEW YORK, May 28.—A small minority of the population, “conceal ing their design under the word ‘La bor* *1 are threatening to undermine the constitution, E. H. Gary, presi dent of the American Iron and Steel institute declared in addressing the annual meeting here today. “Representatives of so-called labor strikes, involving riot and injury to property and person are instigated as a part of the’campaign to disturb and demoralize the economic conditions of the country,” Mr. Gary said. “In other lands very serious results have been accomplished by the same means which have been employed here.” Mr. Gary said the “small minority” hopes to attract a majority of the people and thus enable them to ob tain “one legislative act after an other until the constitution shall be undermined and the whole structure destroyed.” “These men!” he continued, “have already secured some legislation which is wrongfully discriminating.” Mr. Gary declared the safe and natural remedy for the “perils” are to be found' only in “Unity of pur pose and effort on the part of the whole crew on board our ships of state, an individed loyalty to the principles of our constitution and all the laws which are pasesd in confor mity to it.” Speaking of the duties of em ployers, Mr. Gary said they must be “unselfish, reasonable, fair, sin cere and honest.” “You should without interruption, give evidence of a disposition to con ciliate and co-operate,” the speaker said. “Employes must realize that their advancement and contentment de pend on the progress and prosperity of their employers; that except for the willing and free investment of capital up to the requirements of business demands, together with the null co-operative assistance on the part of the best talent, enterprise and initiative would languish and disappear and that) indifference and idleness would be substituted.” Agitators who are trying to create trouble between employes and em ployers, are as a rule insincere and selfish. Mr. Gary stated. The great mass of employes, if left to decide for themselves, “are loyal to the country, to the public interest and their employers,” he said. Mr Gary said the honest man who “reads, studies, thinks, works, \econ omisses, saves, persists and uses his best judgment” wilh succeed in this country. * "If he is neglectful, indolent, prof ligate and dishonest, he will fail. Ordinarily the men who complain be cause of their poverty or position in life, have only themselves to blame.” Turning to the duties of the pub lic Mr. Gary said, “There must not be any discrimination against or in favor of any group of persons if this country is to retain the position among nationsrto which it is entitled. “The general public, he declared, should co-operate with and assist private enterprise. Discussing the election of the -xt president, Mr. Gary said a man must be selected who is “able, wise and web informed, of unquestioned i.Qn esty. morally and intellectually, eminently fair and impartial, frank and sincere, broad-minded, deeply sympathetic, courag<sus, sturdy and well balanced.” IMRS.SIHIHBMTT IS CONVICTED M GETS HO 8 HS Motion for New Trial Made by Defense and Hearing Set by Court for the 19th of June Mrs. Stella Abbott was convicted by a jury in the criminal division of the superior court Thursday night of a charge of voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to from four to eight years at the state farm, it be ing charged that she shot and killed her husband, Johri H. Abbott, Jf.j former'chauffeur for First Chief Wil liam B. Cody, at their home on Bass street on the night of January 27, 1919, following a telephone conver sation between Mrs. Abbott and a young woman who, it is alleged, had called Mr. At a previous trial, conducted about ar year ago, Mrs. Abbott was convicted and sentenced to ten years. She appealed and was grant ed a new trial by the court of ap peals. Attorney Edmund W. Martin, one of counsel for the defense, filed a potion for a new trial Thursday night and date of hearing was set by Judge John D. Humphries for June 19. The defendant was re leased in $5,000 bonds pending the hearing. A verdict was reached one hour and a half after the case had been placed in the hands of the jury. Mrs. Ab bott received the announcement with out any outward signs of emotion. Her two sons and several women in the court room wept audibly. It was said the jury was unanimous in its verdict for voluntary manslaughter from the start, but was divided on the sentence. A new feature in the deliberations of a jury was intro duced by Foreman M. D. Smith, a minister, when he opened the delib erations with prayer, every member of the.jqiqr joining with him immedi ately upon entering the jury room. Court Boom Crowded The case went to the jury at 5:30 o’clock Thursday afternoon, after a two-hours’ argument by Attorney Reuben R. Arnold, counsel for the defense, and the judge’s charge. Dur ing the afternoori the court room was cfOwded with spectators, many of whom remained for the verdict. The quickness in which the verdict was reached was a surprise to many, as at the rtr.evious trial the jury wps out more than twenty hours. At 6:45 o’clock Judge Humphries sent word to the jury to inquire if an early verdict was likely. The fore>- man announced that the verdict was then being prepared. Fifteen min utes later it was received in the courtroom. Judge • Humphries 1 al lowed the same bond of $5,000, which was furnished after the first trial to stand and Mrs. Abbott was taken to the hqme of her father. In his charge 'to the jury Judge Humphries explained the law gov erning self-defense and stated that no one could create an emergency which renders it necessary for an other to defend himself and then take advantage of the effort of such other person to <l£> so. Neverthe less, he said, one who provokes a difficulty may yet defend himself against violence on the part of the one provoked if the violence, or threatened violence, be dispropor tionate to the seriousness of , the provocation or greater in degree than the law recognizes is justifiable un der the circiMnstances. Arnold Concludes The second trial of Mrs. Abbott started Tuesday morning and argu ments were begun by counsel Wed nesday afternoon, each side being allotted four hours. Attorney Arnold had the concluding argument. Mrs. Abbott’s act, he said, was a blow struck for her home. Tortured by her husband’s actions and believing herself and her two little boys in danger she shot in self-defense, Mr. Arnold declared. “The most innocent of animals will fight if it believes its children in danger,” Mr. Arnold said, "ail'd Mrs. Abbott only did what apy mother would have done. When Johnny Abbott revealed the name of the woman who had "called him he real ized his mistake and it infuriated him. Mrs. Abbott struck a bi»w to protect her home —an absolutely justi fiable act. A woman’s instinct is better than our judgment.” Mr. Arnold said he had but two hours in which to answer four hours of arguments. He analyzed . the statements made by the .prosecuting attorneys and the testimony of the state’s witnesses and claimed that the state had made a mountain out of a mole hill all through the trial.

ATLANTA, GA., SATURDAY, MAY 29, ls2o. STRIKE OF RAIL • CLERKS SPREADS; FREIGHT TIED UP All but one of the principal rail roads entering Atlanta were more or legs involved Friday in the strike of union clerks starting last week- on the Central of Georgia railroad which led to a sympathetic walkout by congideiable numbers of clerl :al workers on five other roads hurs day <at noon, followed by similar ac tion by another line Friday morning. A practical tie tip of freight move ments in Atlanta was reported at four of the roads affected, while .three roads involved were said to be operating about -as usual. At a mass meeting Thursday night the clerks of all the brotherhoods connected with the strike voted ’ unanimously to stay out until the ultimatum issued by the Central of Georgia road last week is withdrawn -and their attitude has the endorse ment of the union leader in charge of the situation, J. W. Nelson, grand xvice president of the national broth erhood. The forwarding and delivery of freight was stopped Thursday morn ing on the Southern railway, the At lanta and West Point railway, the Louisville and Nashville railway and the Georgia railroad, on which lines a large proportion of the clerks of all departments were reported out. At flie Atlanta, Birmingham and At lantic railway, from 15 to 20 per cent of the clerical force was said \to be out, but the re ceiving and delivery of freight was proceeding as usual. At the Cen tral of Georgia railway, the road on which the controversy originated last week. deliveries were being made all day and freight for ship ment was being accepted from 7 o’clock in the nTorning to 1 o’clock in the afternoon. A number of clerks at the yard of fices of the Nashvyie, Chattanooga and St. Louis road, were out Friday morning, but freight service remain ed uninterrupted, officials said. The Seaboard Air Line railroad is now the only line entering Atlanta thart has not become, involved. • Press dispatches Friday morning reported that clerks of the Atlantic Coast Line railway, Thomasville, Ga., and at St. Augustine, on the Flor ida East Coast railway, had joined the strike. , The strikers represent several hun dred union clei-ks of the roads in volved. The walkout became effec tive Thursday when the employes did not return to their posts after the noon hour. There had been no no tice of a strike, and according to the local head‘of the brotherhood, no strike order has been issued. The situation is the result of spontaneous action of affiliated brotherhoods in sympathy with the Central of Geor gia clerks, Vice President Nelson states. Conference on at Macon A conference at Macon between representatives of tl\e brotherhoods, representatives of other Central rail road crafts and officials of the road was in session When the walkout in Atlanta occurred and was to con tinue Friday No progress toward a settlement of the trouble was re ported, and according to the union head, the situation has been aggra vated, if anything, by the delibera tions. Says Clerks Are Bight “I believe those poor clerks are absolutely right and that they will not return to work until the Central’s ultimatum is withdrawn,” said the vice president of the union, Friday morning. Mr. Nelson stated that the walkout had not become effective through any action of the general chairmen of twenty-seven brother hoods of southeastern lines, which has been in session in Atlanta since Sunday. The conference was to have adjourned Thursday but will now continue. “There was no order from me, and nobody else issued any specific or dey,” stated Mr. Nelson. I think the strike was a natural, intuitive spon taneous action by the other clerks. It was a demonstration of a prin ciple propounded by the American Federation of Labor setting out that we do not believe in strikes, but if we are struck at we must strike back the best we can. 1 suppose the whole southeast will be affected, un less the ultimatum is withdrawn. The Macon conference lias only irri tated the situation. The*Central of ficials are still sparring for time and quibbling over minor details.” Has Full Authority Mr. Nelson stated that he had been vested with full authority by the grand president of the national brotherhood to handle the situation in this territory. At a mass meeting Os about 1,(100 clerks last night, he said, he asked any clerk to stand who wished to go back under the conditions stipulated by the Cehtral road and there was no response. The strike began Monday a week ago when clerks at principal cities of the Central of Georgia railroad did not report for duty. No griev ances or demands had been present ed, according to officials of the road, and no strike order had been issued, both sides stated. Dissatis faction with wage schedules and alleged violation of the national agreement by the railroad officials precipitated the trouble.'-the union claims. - The road maintains that there is no justification for the strike and that it is in violation of the national agreement and the con si tut ion of the brotherhood. Water Power Bill . Passes Senate After Twelve Years’ Fight WASHINGTON, May 28.—Ending a twelve year fight, the senate to day passed the water power bill as it came from conference. The house having already agreed to the meas ure, it goes to the president for sig nature.

MN MTU SIDES GUESSING ON NEXT TREATY MOVE Lawrence Believes Present. x -ldea of President Is to Keep Pact at White House - Until Conventions Act BY DAVID LAWRUNCE (Copyright, 11'20, for Tiie Atlanta Journal.) ■ WASHINGTON, May 28.—Presi dent ’Wilson not merely has his po litical opponents, but his friends guessing as to his next move in the treaty situation, but unless the' president changes hi’s mind abrupt ly his present maneuver is to keep | the treaty of Versailles in the White House either until the two political ' conventions have met and declared 1 themselves and a new disposition is manifested toward* the document or until the American people have shown by their votes that they sus tain or repudiate the present mem bership of the senate. . The Republicans were eager for the president to act on the Knox peace resolution. The Democrats j didn’t filibuster or engage in pro- I ( longed debate but hastened the reso- , lution to the White House. The Re publicans expected the veto, but also .expected the treaty to come-back to, the senate with a statement of the' reservations he would accept. Then. I ' havifig selected Senator Henry Cabot ' 1 Lodge to make the keynote speech at the Republican national convention, the expectation was that the Massa- ' : chusetts senator would/discuss the phraseology of reservations and , that the issue again would ap pear to be only one of language. At any rate it was believed the people at Uie polls wouldn’t be able to distinguish between the Demo cratic or Republican kind of reserva tions and that the treaty question would be lost in a maze of contro versies oyer domestic policies. But the president is unwilling to ’ play into Republican hands. He ! plans to make it as uncomfortable ‘ as possible for his opponents. He : is waiting to see what the Republi- 1 can national convention, with a tem porary chairman advocating ratifi- > cation of the treaty with reserva- 1 tions will do about nominating a 1 man who denounces the whole treaty, I reservations and all, namely Senators < Hiram Johnson or Philander C. Knox, ' ‘ Flaying Bold Hand „ 1 Mr. Wilson has consulted nobody i in the senate and has worked out i his own strategy. His tactics are < not altogether pleasing to his Dem- i ocratic colleagues but they admit he i is playing a bold hand and may sue- t ceed eventually in keeping the i t treaty issue clear cut by retaining , the Versailles pact at the White I i House. A’ Several senators on the ’ Demo cratic side who are not particularly ! t in favor of the president’s supposed ' { plan, do nevertheless see various | f grounds upon* which Mr. Wilson t could justify his action. The presi- J dent, as disclosed by his veto of < the Knox resolution, accepts the ac- t tion of the senate in failing to pass ’ the peace treaty itself as final. He 1 argues that there is no need for t him to send the treaty back, as the senate has notifiep him that it can- ( not pass. He appeals from the sen- t ate to the American people.

McLean, of North Caro lina, a director of the war finance ; corporation, was examined. He do ; nied that lie was “a sort of southern manager” for Mr. McAdoo’s cam paign and attempted to read a pre- • pared statement. ; “I know there is a McAdoo cam paign,” interjected Senator Reed. Democrat, of Missouri. “I move we go ahead with this witness with some questions and let the state ment go until we find out why tlii t secrecy.” ■ Replying to a rapid fire of ques ; tions, Mr. McLean declared that he did not know there was A McAdoo ■ i beadquarters in Washington, or in ' the Pennsylvania hotel, New York, ' and that he was not informed as to s the source of McAdoo literature sent to Democratic delegates. I He finally recounted a conversn > tion with Mr. McAdoo as to the North Carolina delegation. “I told Mr. McAdoo there was an over whelming sentiment in my state for him,” he said. The committee in terrupted to fix the date of the conversation. Mr. McLean could not remember the date of the conversa tion exactly. “I told him we were having a primary down there,” Mr. McLean continued, “and that his name would go in whether he liked it or not. bui that we would be in an absurd sit uation, if we were voting for a man who would not take the nomination , “He said he was not a candidate, wouldn’t turn his hand over to gat the nomination, and did not want hi' - i friends to take anv action about it. Could Not Decline “He did say that if the nomination was tendered him a man could not ! decline. “Some of his friends thought they ! ought to take the bull by the horns ... and go ahead whether he want ed them to or not. There was some sort of a dinner party up in New York about it, and some fool went and told him about it.” “What was there?” Chairman Ken yon demanded. “Well, Mr. Roper,” Mr. McLean said, referring to the former collec tor of internal revenue, “and some others.” Later “some of Mr. McAdoo’s 1 friends were- pretty mad about it,” Mr. McLean added. “We all thought something should be done to show Mr. McAdoo's avail ability,” ‘Mr. McLean concluded, “but I don’t consider I’ve done any work for him.” He had written letters to North , ' Carolina, but he said he did not know that any federal officials were 1 on' that delegation. “Do you know anything ' about plans to use the Liberty Loan pub- I licity campaign organization for Mc- Adoo?” asked Chairman Kenyon. I “I do not.” i “Have you seen Mr. Baruch’s book, ! ‘Men Who Won tiie War,’ with the i laudatory articl eabout Mr. Mc -1 Adoo?” “I have not.” “I want to apologize for being rough with you,” Senator Reed put in. “I’m glad some man is letting the presidency seek him, not chas- I ing it.” ; “If there ever yas a rabbit,” said ; Mr. McLean, “Mr. Adoo is it.” ; Mr. McLean said that he had talk ed to Mr. Baruch. “We both of us agreed that Mr.* McAdoo would be i a good man.” he said. “My own I idea was Wv ought to lay back 1 and i see what the Republicans did.” “Os course >ur delegation from North Carolina will/support Senator / Simmons,” he added, “not even ex cepting Mr. McAdoo.” Frank H. Harrison, a Nebraska i newspaperman who -managed Sen- I ator Johnson s campaign before the i Republican primaries, was called. I “Out of a total of $1,913 he used in Nebraska.” he said, “SI,BOO wafe I sent him from California, and the I balance came in by $5. $lO and $25 j donations and in postage stamps.” Wood's Ohio Campaign Senator Norris, Republican, Ne braska. campaigned the state with Senator Johnson, he said, and tiie 1 traveling expenses were $167. i “What would you have done with j §500,000 if it ha dbeen handed you?” Senator Reed asked. : “What most other political man ; agers do—divide it up among friends,” Mr. Harrison told, him promptly. Harry M. Daugherty, campaign manager for Senator Harding, of Ohio, recalled, declared the Ohio States Journal, and the Columbus - : Dispatch, had supported Senator ; Harding at first, and later support 'ed General Wood. Senator Reed I sought explanation of the change. ; “I would be willing to go this. far,” Mr. Daugherty said. “There was a very active campaign made around Columbus for General Wood.” “I’ve understood that Mr. Wolf is the controlling factor of both papers and that he changed his policy to 'oppose Senator Harding and that later everything indicated the ex penditure of large sums of money in the campaign,” Senator Reed said. “Mr. Wolf pretended at first to support Senator Hardnig,” Mr. Daugherty replied, “and afterwards went to the vigorous support of Gen- (Coutinued on Page 8, Column 5)
