Because the unfortunate ones had neglected themselves or had been merely taking care of the sign (swelling) of the affliction and paying no attention to the cause. What are you doing? Are you neglecting yourself by wearing a truss, ap pliance, or whatever name you choose to call it? At best, the truss is only a makeshift. , a false prop against a collapsing wall —and cannot be expected to act rfs more than a mere mechanical support.

For Reconstruction Work By Saturday Evening Post In the pages of the Saturday Eve ning Post this week, before the eyes of 1,500,000 reading Americans, the city of Atlanta is held up as an ex ample to Europe of “how to recon struct.” The answer is—go to work. That was what Atlanta did in 18G4, the Post points out, and by inference if by nothing else, the Post advises Europe to do the same thing today, taking Atlanta as a model. Atlanta has probably never had a finer story written about her or a better advertisement to the world at large than this article in the Post. "Reconstruction, or Take Atlanta, for Instance.” The article spreads over two full pages toward the first part of the magazine, and runs over about six columns in the back. It is illustrated with old photographs of Atlanta dur ing the war and by new photographs .?t' Five 1 I'ints, Fftrhuee and White hall streets as they are today. Edward Lowry Is Author The author is G. Lowry, a native Atlantian and a resident here for many years who for some time past has been one of the leading writers on the Post’s staff, spending practically the entire period of 1914- 1919 in Europe, writing commercial, industrial and economic articles for the Post. Thus, he knows what he is talking about when he takes At lanta and Europe and compares them. Many Atlantians will remember that Mr. Lowry was here about two months ago, preparing his Post ar ticle. He consulted old records at the Carnegie library and the library at the state capitol, and he talked per sonally to many of the elder genera tion of Atlanta’s citizenry. As ne says near the outset of his article, after poking a bit of fun at the “dream-book formulas” offered on all sides for reconstruction prob lems: “All this discussion of reconstruc tion problems is old stuff to me. 1 was raised on such talk. I have heard it ever since I can remember ; I was born in Georgia eleven years after Lee’s surrender. My people were in the path of Sherman's maren to the sea. They were refugees. They were still talking about it when 1 was a boy. Their stories sre as vivid and real to me as the things I saw with my own eyes in France. . . The French or the Belgians cannot accuse me of lack of understanding or lack of sympathy with their’pres ent plight.” Praise For Atlanta Mr. Lowry says that Europe has a reconstruction problem. He says that Europe, stunned and dazed, is saying: “We can never get on our feet again. We must have help. You Americans are rich. You must cancel our debts to you and lend us your money. We can do nothing for ourselves without your assist ance.” This European problem, says Mr. Lowry, has a solution which he has discovered, a solution which he describes as “Incredibly simple.” He has found it, he says, in the south after the War Between the States. “Take Atlanta, for example,” he says. “Her story and her recovery is the story of the recovery of the south. She Is a conspicuous type case. The town was shelled for more than a month while filled with a civilian population of men, wom en and children non-combatants. When finaly taken by the enemy the civilians were deported. Then when after a brief occupancy, Sher man left the town and took up his march to the sea, he utterly destroy ed it by fire and explosives. France can offer no more complete case of the ravages of war. All cities have personalities. Paris is no more dis tinctive than Atlanta, or Madrid than Montgomery. Atlanta has always been from its earliest days self-con fident and enterprising—a thruster, unafraid and ready to try anything once.” Bombardment Described Mr. Lowry then launches into a vivid description of the bombard ment, capture and destruction of At lanta, giving his facts from the rec ord and interspersing them with first-hand accounts of old residents. He shows that Sherman deported all but a few hundred of the inhabitants and then destroyed three-fourths of the buildings, or all but about 400 houses out of 3,800, leaving the city nothing but an ash-heap. Then he tells of the return of At lanta’s citizens, beginning with the little party, headed by Er Lawshe, DontMMff These Len-Mort Hard Knox, Black Leather Work and Out Door Shoes are "wizards” forjve&r—the absolute limit in strength combined with comfort and dreeay Built on stylish laco Blucher last; drill-lined; er insoieajguaranteed ?..«. counters; 2 full solid G1 a C leather soles clinch nallod and sewed -O’ZS running clear through to the solid, strongLuu heels that won’t come off.

S., STATE TREASURY NEARLY DEPLETED; LOANS NECESSARY 4 The treasury of Georgia is prac tically empty. An interest payment of $125,000 on the state’s bonded debt, due July 1, will leave in the treasury the munificent sum of SB,- 842. During July the state will col lect from insurance companies about $350,000, but all of this and more will be needed for the current oper ating expenses of departments and institutions, so that the end of July will find the treasury empty again. Members of the legislature con front the prospect of waiting months before drawing their pep diem. This will be a hard blow to some of the lawmakers who are accustomed to “putting in” for the whole amount at the beginning of the session. Th-j total expense of a session of the leg islature, which runs fifty days, is $125,000. Practically all of last year’s ad valorem taxes have been collected and paid into the treasury, so that no more money will come from that source. The governor is now up to the limit of his curernt borrowing power of $500,000. so that no more money can be had. from that source. As above explained, the insurance taxes coming in July will be used up in the payment of current bills for institutions and departments, so that the insurance taxes cannot be used. The only hope of tiding over the summer is to borrow a few hundred thousand dollars from the motor ve hicle license Receipts. These are ap propriated to the state highway de partment, but the status of that de partment and its funds is awaiting a decision by the supreme court. In the meanwhile, the highway depart ment’s bills are accomulating. If its funds are borrowed by authority of a special resolution of the legislature, they will have to be repaid if high way work goes on. Not to repay them would halt the highway pro gram. Taken all In all, the state’s finan cial difficulty is rather acute. It grows out of the fact that legislative appropriations are in excess of the state’s revenue. The only permanent solution is to raise more revenue either by reorganizing the tax system or increasing the' tax rate. < Two Seaplanes Crash 500 Feet Above Water; Man Reported Killed PENSACOLA, Fla., June 17.—Two seaplanes crashed together in mid air over the gulf here todav and fell more than 500 feet Into the water. According to the report to .he naval station William B. Livingston, ch’’ef electrician, was killed and his body was not recovered. He was pilot of HS-2 type plane. The other machine, a No. 9 type, was piloted by Lieu tenant John Farnsworth, who was not fatally hurt. that came back to ravaged Atlanta in December, 18G4. “The people lost no time in re pining,” he writes. “Gentlemen of the old regime who never knew what , it was to perform a menial labor, stripped their coats and set to knock ing dead mortar off the bricks. Men like Judge Collier mixed mortar and laid brick. There were no idlers and no labor was too hard or menial for any Atlantian to set his hand to. The men were no pluckier than the women. . . . While I was in Atlanta in April I talked with her oldest citi zens, men who had returned to the town as soon as Sherman left it. I sought details. I asked them, ‘How did you get started in the work of restoration? . . . “These questions always gave them pause. But in the end the reply was always the same—‘l went to work.’ One said, ‘I hauled sand.’ Another helped Judge John Collier rebuild his building. Another got a job scraping the mortar off old bricks so they could be used again. No job was too menial or too hard. Sweated and Saved “These people were right up against the real thing. They had no policy or plan of reconstruction. They Indulged in no windy aspira tions to reshape this sorry scheme of things entire. They did not sit down amid the ruins of their blackened and broken homes and cuss the Yankees. “As they told me: ‘We just sweat ed and saved.’ “Now that is the magic formula of reconstruction that I have unearth ed. It is a working hyopthesis—a proved recipe.” In describing Atlanta of today as contrasted with the “sweating and saving time,” Mr. Lowry mentions grand opera, the ball games, the hum and bustle on every hand. “The whole point about Atlanta that makes her valuable as an illus tration is that when the Civil War ended her people quit fighting and went to work.” Thus he sums up his hint to Eu rope. “Atlanta has been and is a natural born go-getter. That accounts for her prosperity. It means that the people pull together on all questions that affect Jthe prosperity of the town. They have an alert and sen sitive civic pride. In any time of crisis they appeal to what they call the Atlanta spirit. It pulls them ti.. ough.” Politics Our Hl Effect In concluding his article, Mr. Lowry makes the statement that the only lasting ill effect of reconstruc ts days in the south is political. ‘The south is solid today because of the reconstruction policies of An drew Jackson, Thad Stevens and the other irreconcilables in congress in those after-the-war days. .. . The dead hand of those stupid, misguided politicians is still lying on the south.” As a concrete, modern illustra tion, Mr. Lowry points to Herbert Hoover. “Hoover called a Democrat would sweep the state of Georgia. He would have carried the Democratic, primary held on April 20th without question. I believe this to be an as sured statement of fact. Hoover call ed a Republican make men timid to come out for him openly. . . The south is slowly feeling toxvard the imps ding new political reallign ment that is surely taking place. It is only a matter of time before the solid south is broken. Hoover could Ido it this year. . . When that is done, when the south frees itself po litically and so arranges or controls its peculiar sectional problem that it can speak its convictions through any candidate, whatever his party, then indeed the last shred of recon struction will have been cleared away. “That is one of the reasons why Hoover is so significant a figure in the south today. Atlanta abhors a slough as nature abhors a vacuum. 1 She sees Hoover clearly and his meaning and value. Her people know, if anybody in the world knows, how to face and solve a prob lem of reconstruction and t sort of man it takes to do the job. It ■ struck me as immensely significant that they had picked Hoover as that type of man.” the great vegetable blood medi cine, will revitalize your blood and give you new strength and a healthy, vigorous vitality.

Farmers Find Co-operative M arketing Indispensable “If our co-operative marketing sys tem were discontinued, it would be a calamity to the farmers of this coun ty,” was the recent statement of a Mississippi farmer —this, in a state where only a few years ago no co operative marketing system of any pract'eal va?ve existed. But once the advantage of mar keting surplus produce co-operative ly had been successfully demonstrat ed co-operative organizations sprang up everywhere throughout the state almost overnight. True, many of them were formed hastily; and the farmers soon learned that the success of a co-operative en terprise depended upon somethyig' more than the mere willingness of Bill Smith and John Brown to pool dheir produce. Efficient business methods had to be devised, and prob lems peculiar to each particular com munity needed to be solved. But with a firm belief in the soundness of the co-operative principle, these ob stacles dissolved before the whole hearted efforts exerted by the mem bers working together. To the coun ty agents of Mississippi is due the credit of initiating and developing this work. With the thought that other farm ers may find them of value, some of the methods pursued are here given. Grading’ Pound Better Than Marking In shipping hogs It was found that the grading method was better than market as to ownership. Well-fin .ished barrows and open gilts are graded according to weight, and packer sows are graded according to size, quality, and finish. Hogs of any class that are very poor and emaciated are classified as “skins.” Special methods of bedding and loading have also been devised. Sim ilar methods are applied to cattle and sheep. For marketing miscellaneous prod ucts the commodities that the farm ers have in small quantities are as sembled in a rented warehouse or va cant store located at a point con venient to the railroad. Corn is shelled before shipping; if possible, as shelled corn can be grad ed with greater accuracy; it can be stored if the market is low, and it can be hauled to town when roads are gpod and at a convenient time. The corn is put up in good, even weight 2 1-2-bushel bags. Ear corn is loaded direct from the farmers’ wagons into the car. A weigher examines the corn at the scales for color, quality and maturity. Wilson Is Expected To Announce Action On Water-Power Bill WASHINGTON, June 17.—Presi dent Wilson's ac on the water power mIH and ten other measures passed at the close of last session of congress and which Attorney Gen eral Palmer ruled “could be signed within ten days” was expected to be announced today. Included among the measures are resolutions repealing war-time laws and authorizing the president to appoint a commission to confer with Canadian authorities re garding restrictive orders against the export of pulp wood ”-hich must be approved before midnight. The time limit on the water power bill expired last Friday night but in quiries at the White House, state de partment and the capitol have failed to disclose the fiction taken by the president.' It ■was learned at the state department that the bill still was at the White House, but officials refrained from further comment. GALLSTONE TROUBLES A new booklet written by Dr. E. E.

(AdvtD Plague Claims Second Victim in Pensacola PENSACOLA, Fla., June 17.—The second death from bubonic plague in this city occurred today, when Oscar Greene, the negro ice wagon driver attacked about ten days ago, suc cumbed. No other cases had been reported to need today. An energetic campaign for the eradication of >-ats was started today in all sections of the city. One 801 l Weevil Worth One Stick of Candy MONTGOMERY, Ala., June 17. One stick of candy is paying for one boll weevil in Russell county, accord ing to reports which reached the capitol. Farmers have found that negro boys like candy and prefer it to money, therefore they are buying stick candy by the barrel and every time a person brings in a boll wee wil he is given one stick. This method is cheaper than paying a penny apiece for weevils, which is being done in some states. Seotuagenarians Wed LONDON. Eng.—Sir Mark O’droyd founder of the Dewsbury woolen firm, and Miss A. J. Pattison were married recently at Hasleniere. Si' '•Dirk is -77 and was knighted in 1909. His brif’e 73 and a very old friend of the family. Cow peas are closely inspected at the warehouse as to variety, sound ness and freedom from dirt and trash The farmers learned that graded peas command premium prices. The marketing of potatoes is be gun in the field. Poor potatoes are culled out on the farm and the good potatoes hauled to town under a cov ering of cloth or sacks. The potatoes are run over the grader at the ware house, separated into standard grades and sacked in new 100-pound bags. Ventilated or stock cars are used to ship the potatoes and the sacks stacked on end in rows ranging the length of the car. Each car holds from 400 to 500 bushels. The firsni second and third layers are loaded so as to permit the freest ventilation. Poultry is carefully classified and shipped in regular express cars made for the purpose. The minimum load is 8,000 pounds and the maximum load 15,000 pounds. The poultry is sold for cash at the loading station. A certain day is set apart for the shipping of eggs. Nothing but can died eggs are accepted, which has caused the farmers to use better methods of gathering, storing and carrying the eggs to town. The eggs are shipped in new cases with three and a half-pound, or heavier, new fillers and flats, and packed so as to fill the slack in each case. Great stress is laid upon the im portance of keeping accurate records of each transaction. In ...keeping ac counts the following features are emphasized: Brevity: To save the time of the market agent. Simplicity: For the benefit of the farmers whose produce is handled. Completeness: To protect the as sociation as a body. Farmers Pleased with Besults The associated farmers are im mensely pleased with their accom plishments. It meant more money to them, and because of the quality of their products secured through proper grading, packing and shipping, the buyers have every con fidence in the farmers, a necessary factor in any transaction between seller and purchaser. Detailed information regarding the methods pursued by Mississippi farmers are given in bulletin No. 15 of the extension division of the Mississippi Agricultural and Mechan ical college, or may be had upon re quest from the county agents in the field, the Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical college, or the United States department of agriculture. Dartmouth Junior Is Held on Murder Charge HANOVER, N. H„ June 17.—Rob ert T. Meads, junior in Dartmouth college from LaGrange, 111., today was held without bail charged with first degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of Henry E.

OWNERSHIP OF RAILROADS IS ASKED BY LABOR MONTREAL, June 17. —Govern- ment ownership with Democratic operation of American railroads was indorsed today by the American Fed eration of labor convention here aft er a bitter fight. Roll call showed that government ownership was indorsed by a vote of 29,059 to 8.349. The resolution as passed by the | convention read: “Whereas, the organizations rep-, resented by delegates indorsing this resolution and several others have tyeen and are now doing everything possible to educate the American people to the seriousness of the rail road situation, and the necessity for adopting some other means for op erating the country’s transportation systems in order to provide more adequate and cheaper transportation and to eliminate the sinister influ ence of railroad corporations from our national life; and, “Whereas, the railroad question is an industrial question, it is also a social question, and it is far more than a question of dividends to stock holders or the wages of employes; it is a question that involves every industrial activity of the nation; and “Whereas, we believe, that the con tinued operation of railroads under the provision of the transportation act of 1920 neglects all tuesa ques tions and makes their solution im possible and< we believe further that the provisions of this act providing for a subsidy and the utilization o. public funds by private individuals is a betrayal of the public interest and is subversive of the traditions of our country; and, “Whereas, the above mentioned la bor organizations have, after careful deliberation and by instructions of their respective memberships adopt ed and are advocating a plan provid ing for government ownership and democratic operation of the railroad properties; therefore, be It “Resolved, That the fortieth annual convention of the American Federa tion of Labor go on record as in dorsing the movement to tyring about a return of the systems of trans portation to government ownership and democratic aperation; and be it further “Resolved, That the executive council be and are hereby instruct ed to use every effort to have the transportation act of 1920 repealed and legislation enacted providing for government ownership and democratic operation of the railroad systems and necessary inland waterways.” Disorder interrupted the roll-cail several timse, when delegations of the various crafts divided on their votes. ~ „ Charges of “steam-roller . were hurled at the chair by James Duncan of Seattle, and other delegates when it denied the right of roll-call to delegations to split on the questio’ Applause and “boos” and hisses alternately greeted the delegation votes. The building trade delegations pre sented almost a solid front against government ownership, supporting Gompers and administration forces. The railroad workers were sup ported by the great voting powers of the United Mine Workers, machin ist unions, textile workers, garment workers and the metal tradescrafts| New Italian Premier Will Demand Greater Share of War Rewards WASHINGTON, Jun e 17. —Italy is dissatisfied with her share of the fruits of the war, dnd Premier Gio litti and his new government will take a firmer stand in demanding of the other allies what is regarded as Italy’s just rewards, it was believed by diplomats here today. The formation of a new Italian cabinet to succeed the fallen gov ernment of Premier Nltti also will mark a firmer and more conserva tive internal policy in Italy, it was predicted. The two most important interna tional questions upon which the ex pected change in Italian policy will •probably act are the still unsettled Adriatic imbroglio and Italy’s pro portion of the German indemnity.

June 17.—Sharp criti cism of the decision reached by the council of the League of nations to postpone action on the plea of Per sia for defense against the Bolsheviki is expressed in some qi’?.rters here, and one section of the press openiy attacks the council for its action. Some of those present at the meet ing of the council, it is declared, were given a bad impression, and it is understood Prince Mirza Firouz, Persian foreign minister, notwith standing his outward acquiescence, was considerably disappointed, al though he comforted himself in the confident hope that in the event Bol shevik troops did not withdraw from Persia, the league would take active steps to protect his country. The Times captions its editorial on the subject: “A Pompous Farce,” and calls yesterday’s proceedings “hu miliating.” It -says: “Malice was the cause of discredit being brought upon the league.” “The bodj’ the council) was pledged to the furtherance of open diplo macy,” complains the Daily News, “but threw no light on the text of the correspondence which has passed between the Persian and soviet gov ernments, and certain conditions al-, leged to have been imposed. This Is one way of killing the league.” The Herald, organ of labor, de clares: “The league is already dead be cause it never lived, and this be cause the men who formed it were militarists and imperialists, greedy for power and territory.” A Copenhagen dispatch to the Herald refers to the unpublished cor respondence between Persia and soviet Russia, and, championing the latter, claims Persia has not answered the soviet government’s protest against what it calls Persia’s viola tion of international law. Giving de tails of these violations, the dispatch declares a plenipotentiary sent from Moscow to Teheran last year with a note laying down the principles of the soviet’s attitude toward Persia was “seized and shot by the British and Russian anti-Bolshevik forces.” It is also claimed that soviet con suls in Persian have been seized and deported.
