2 M RS. ALICE GRESHAM IVI DODD, mother of the first American soldier killed in France, who gives entire credit for recovery of her health to the well-known medicine I Tanlac. safety.. J* vnggK§&>. ■ » iMpW x IWI V '"X K <! < 'a-o The following remarkable endorse ment of Tanlac .was given recently by Mrs. Alice Gresham Dodd, at the Gresham Memorial Home, Gavin Park. Evansville, Ind., which home was presented to her by the patriotic people of Indiana, as evidence of their appreciation of the services ren . dered to his country by her son, Cor poral James B. Gresham, the first American soldier killed in France. Expressions of sympathy were re ceived by Mrs. Dodd from all parts of the United States, and the news papers of the country carried the story of the first ‘war mother.’ The shock of her son's death re sulted in the serious breakdown of Mrs. Dodd's health, but everyone will learn with interest and pleasure that she is now in splendid health again. When seen at her home recently she made the following statement, giving the entire credit for her recovery to the well-known medicine, Tanlac. “After my dear boy's death, I had a general breakdown in health.’’ said Mrs. Dodd. “At first it was just in digestion. My food used to upset me and I had to diet myself very care fully, which wasn’t much hardship as I lost all desire to eat. Then I had an attack of rheumatism, with severe pains in my shoulders, back and arms. Sometimes I used to suf fer a great deal, and my joints would get all swollen up and stiff. I was able to do very little about the house, • and at times couldn’t even cook a meal. I got very nervous and rest less, and at night would lay awake for hours, and lost many a night’s sleep as a consequence. “A friend of mine had received a great deal of help from Tanlac, and it was she who advised me to try it. I am so glad I did for it proved the best medicine I have ever taken. It soon gave me a good appetite and seemed to settle my stomach so that I was no longer troubled with indi gestion. I don’t know what.it is to have rheumatic pains now, the swell ing and stiffness has all gone out of my joints and I am able to do the work of the house with the great est ease. My nerves are now’ steady mid-strong, I sleep fine at night, and I feel better in health than ever be fore in my life. I shall always be grateful for what Tanlac has done for me, and shall recommend it ev ery chance I get.” Tanlac is sold by all leading drug gists. Is Your Blood Starving For Want of Iron? Without Plenty of Iron In Your Blood You Don’t Get the Strength and Nourishment Out of the Food You Eal When over-work, lack of sleep, improper food and impure air sap the iron from your blood and make you feel weak, nervous, irritable and out-of-sorts, it is important that you should at once put more iron into your blood. Without iron the blood loses the power to change food into living tissue and therefore nothing that you eat does you the proper amount of good because you don’t get the full strength out of it. Your food merely passes through your system like corn through a mill with the rollers so wide apart that the mill can’t grind. Be cause of this steady starvation of the blood and nerves people often become weakened, tired-out, nervous and rundown and fre quently develop all sorts of symptoms. But the moment organic iron—Nuxated Iron—is •upplied a multitude of dangerous symptoms disappear in most cases, the flesh becomes firmer, the muscles get back their strength and the roses of health bloom in cheeks that were pale and sickly looking. No matter what other so-called remedies you may have tried, if you are not strong, vigorous, hearty and well, ”Ou owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next, take two five-grain tablets of ordinary Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. You can ootain Nuxated Iron from your dpuggist on the distinct understanding that if you are not fully satisfied your money will be refunded. you either of there wonderful, genuine TjfniteGem nnre to wear for 10 day*.

LEGISLATURE WILL MEETWEDKSNY; TREASURY EMPTY An acute shortage of funds in the state treasury will look the legis lature squarely in the face when it convenes next Wednesday, June 23. for its annual session of fifty days. For several years the state of Geo gia has been kiting. Appropriations have exceeded revenue, making it necessary to borrow from future in come to meet present bills. The kit ing process has been carried to the limit, and now the treasury is prac tically empty with no funds in sight On July 1 an interest payment of $125,000 on the state’s bonded debt will leave a balance of only SB,OOO. During July the state will collect from insurance companies about $350,000. All of this and more will be needed to paj’ current expenses of departments and institutions for the months of May and June. More than $250,000 of payments due the departments and institutions for the I month of May are now held up. A I similar amount will accumulate on i the Ist of July. The whole collec tions from insurance companies will not be sufficient to cover the two months. All of the revenue from ad valorem taxes for 1919 has been col lected and spent, and the governor's current borrowing power of $500,- 000 has been exhausted. The state is not bankrupt. It sim ply is a year behind its expenses. It has no reserve to tide over the period between the spring and the fall. This year’s appropriations are $600,000 in excess of last year’s rev enue, but the deficit will be covered by increased tax values. There is one source, and apparently one alone, from which the legislature can get some money to run the state until ad valorem taxes begin to be collected in the fall. It is the fund from motor vehicles licenses. By a joint resolution the legislature could direct that such an amount as might be necessary should be drawn by the governor from this fund and replaced later from other rev enues. More Rovenu. Necessary Os course, such a loan from the motor vehicle fund, which is set apart for state highway construc tion, would be taken with trie dis tinct proviso that it should be re turned. Neither the • governor nor any other friend of highway devel opment would be in favor of taking it away without returning it. Just at present the motor vehicle fund is temporarily idle on account of the pending test of the constitu tionality of the act imposing a li cense upon motor vehicles and ap propriating the receipts of the same to highway construction. An effort will be made to get a decision of the case by the supreme court within a short time after the legislature con venes, so that the defect in the law, if it should be found to be a fatal defect, can be cured by amendment while the legislature is in session. Increased revenue is the only ul timate and permanent solution of the state’s financial difficulties, in the opinion of Governor Dorsey, Chair man Carswell, of the house appro priation committee; Chairman Allen, of the senate appropriation commit tee; School Superintendent Brittain and others who have made a study of the subject. The decreased buying power of a dollar combined .with increased de mands upon the institutions and de partments of the state have more than offset the comparatively small increases in appropriations. School teachers are paid less than day la borers, and the schools are suffering in consequence of good teachers leav ing their profession and going into other lines of work. Every institu tion of higher elucation is packed to capacity with a waiting line of ap plicants who cannot be admitted. The Georgia Normal and Industrial col lege at Milledgeville, the Georgia School of Technology in Atlanta, the University of Georgia at Athens, the College of Agriculture, the district schools and all the rest are turn ing away ambitious young men and women who plead for admission. Cry for Appropriations Not only the institutions of learn ing are met with increased and in creasing demands, but all of the de partments of the government like wise. and the eleemosynary institu tions like the saintarium for the in sane at Milledgeville, the tuberculo sis sanitarium at Alto and others. An increasing population means in creased demands upon the public service. Though values have increased sub stantially from year to year, they have not kept pace with increased needs. To cut appropriations would be to cut salaries of school teachers, Cut the enrollment of institutions of learning, cut the facilities of elee mosynary institutions and cut the service rendered by departments. Such a policy is not considered and cannot be considered, in the opinion of the governor and legislative lead ers, who maintain that Georgia as the Empire State of the South must keep in the forefront of the march of progress. Increased revenue, therefore, is the only permanent solution of the state’s financial problem. This can be obtained by reorganizing the tax system in such a manner as to make all classes of property bear a just proportion of the expenses of the government, or by removing the con stitutional limit on the state tax rate. A variable tax rate, instead of a tax rate limited to 5 mills, as at present, w’ould enable the governor and comptroller each year to raise whatever revenue had been appro prited by the legislature. It would involve a simple calculation in per centage applied to existing tax val- 1 ues. The larger the appropriations made by the legislature, the higher would be the tax rate. If the people did not want to pay the cost of good schools, good colleges and up-to-date service in other departments, they could at any time elect an economy legislature pledged to retrenchment. A variable tax rate would give the taxpayers an exact thermometer on legislative expenditures. Highway Program Highway legislation ranks with finance in the order of its importance upon the calendar of the 1920 session of the general assembly. The high way program consists of two parts. Part 1 as passed in 1919 is tempor arily halted by the test case of the constitutionality of the motor vehicle law. Part 1 consisted of the motor vehicle law imposing a license upon autos and trucks and appropriating the receipts to the highway depart ment, plus the law creating the high way board and defining its powers. The constitutionality of both laws is involved in the-pending court case. If the supreme court holds the laws to be constitutional, the highway de partment will go on functioning and the legislature won’t have to cure the defects by amendment. If the court knocks out the laws, they will have to be re-enacted by a roll call vote, this being the point involved in the test case. Part 2 of the highway program consists of a bill to amend the con stitution so as to authorize a state bond issue. The figure discussed ranges from $40,000,000. Present motor vehicle receipts aggregating $1,700,000 are enough to pay the re ceipts and sinking fund on a $4 0,- ' 000,000 bond issue, and the receipts ! will grow larger from year to year. ! Hence it is proposed to build the I projected state highway- system in a i lump, or practically in a lump, by | means of a bond issue, so that the present generation can enjoy its bene fits in completed form, instead of building it annually in piecemeal by means of the annual motor vehicle revenue. The highway sentiment is strong throughout the state, and there is every indication that the leg islature will carry through the pro gram in good shape without crip pling amendments. Conatructive Record The present legislature proved it- CASTOR IA For Infants and Children n Use For Over 30 Years Always bears Z? the /x* - Signature of “Pa” and “Ma” and the “Kids” Are All Married at Double Wedding HF * *IB ift' V iUk JpW BwX y ' m a JM CLAP A M. \A/£STLAKE_ IZOBER.T WESTLAKE ./ > Wr ‘Vi - HARDLD CHATTAWAY CLAPA H.

ATTEMPT ON LIFE OF EX-KAISER IS WIDELY RUMORED DOORN, Holland. June 19. —An at tempt against the life of former Emperor William of Germany was made at 5 o’clock Wednesday after noon .according to persistent rumors here. Details of the reported attempt are veiled in mystery, but it is asserted that Wilhelm escaped without injury. A villager, at first thought to be a Belgian, but later identified as a German, is said to have entered the castle by the use of a false permit and then tried to kill Count Hohen zollern. M. Pereboom, private secretary to the former emperor, assured the As sociated Press this morning that no attack had been made on William of Hohenzollern. Dispatches received on Thursday night, reported a Belgian, who suc-i ceeded in gaining entrance to Doorn Castle, the residence of the former German Emperor, had attacked the former emperor and wounded him in the jaw. Since that time the report has been current that an attack had been made, but no confirmation of It has been received. A Berlin dispatch received Friday night stated a newspaper at Baden had learned “from a trustworthy source” that Count Hohenzollern was critically ill but there was no intimation his condition the result of an attack upon him. Louisiana Dairymen Face Federal Charges NEW ORLEANS, La.. June 19. Indictments were returned against three big Louisiana dairymen by the federal granit jury here today charg ing them with conspiring to keep up the price of milk. I. S. West, of Baton Rouge, secre tary of the Louisiana Dairymen’s as sociation, is one of the men indicted. The alleged offense is declared to have taken place in Louisiana and Mississippi which would make it an interstate and therefore a federal mat ter. Atlantian Acquitted Under Unwritten Law CHICAGO, June 19. —The unwrit ten law today won a “not guilty” ver dict for John A. Chance, Atlanta, Ga , on trial here charged with murder. Chance's brother-in-law, Harry Ro chotto. also was freed. Chance a soldier stationed at Fort Sheridan, 111., and Rochotte were charged with murdering James Cavanaugh. They pleaded that Cavanaugh brought the penalty upon himself with his un welome attentions to Rochotte’s sis ter. Spa Conference Is Again Postponed PARIS. June 19.—The conference at Spa between representatives of the allies and Germany, originally set for June 21 and later potponed to July 5, will not be held until July 10, according to the Echo de Paris today. The difficulty German political parties are having in forming a cab inet is the reason given for the re newed delay. self in 1919 to be one of the most constructive in the history of the state. At that session it enacted Part 1 of the highway program; started Part 2 on the road to pas sage; passed the Elders-Carswell amendment to the constitution which provides for a local school tax in every county; revised and codified the school laws of Georgia and strengthened the compulsory educa tion law; passed the act revising the state banking laws and creating the department of .banking; pasesd the act creating a department of print ing; and otherwise made a brilliant record. In the way of educational legisla tion there is one other matter which the educational leaders of the state are urging the legislature to consider at the coming session. County school superintendents are elected now by popular vote. School Superintendent Brittain, backed by the educational forces of the state, urges the passage of a law providing for their election by county boards of education with out stipulation as to where they re side. Superintendent Brittain in his report to the legislature declares the popular election of superintendents is retarding the whole machinery of common school education. The legislature will meet at 11 o’clock Wednesday morning and run for fifty calendar days. John N- Holder, candidate for governor and speaker of the house, will preside over that body, while Sam L. Olive, who presided over the state conven tion in Atlanta May 18, will be back at his post as presiding officer of the senate. E. B. Moore will officiate as clerk of the house and Major Devereaux F. McClatchey as secre tary of the senate. G. 0. P. LEADER PROMISES EARLY TAX REDUCTION WASHINGTON, June 19.—Hope for an early reduction in taxes is held out by Representative Mondell, of Wyoming, Republican leader of the house, in a statement prepared for the final Issue Monday of the Congressional Record and made pub lic tonight. “We shall enter the new session of congress in December and the new congress in March,” said Mr. Mon dell’s statement, “with the way opened for a substantial reduction of the tax burdens.” The Republican leader in this state ment made no prediction as to when the lower taxes wmuld become effec tive. but said reductions would not be possible until after the close of the fiscal year which begins next month. The proposed changes in the tax laws also were not revealed by Mr. Mondell, although he indicated bis disapproval of the administration program for the discard of the ex cess profits levies. He contended that such action at this time would mean a “shifting of burdens from large incomes and profits to the small and normal incomes and profits.” No hope for a return to pre-war expenditures and appropriations was expressed by the Republican leader, although he predicted that for the fiscal year beginning July 1,. 1921, a reduction “by upward of a billion dollars” would be effected, making the annual government expenses ap proximately $8,250,000,000. Fewer government employes and smaller ap propriations for the army and navy were cited by Mr. Mondell as possi bilities for reductions after July 1, 1921. Mr. Mondell estimated that for the fiscal year beginning next month government revenues would exceed expenses by at least $1,046,604,■ 20 unless “unusual expenditures are incurred not contemplated _by congress in the repent session, when $4.273,395,280 was pro vided for the year’s expenses. In determining the surplus, Mr. Mondell said he accepted the most conserva tive estimate of revenues made by the treasury' or a total of $0,420.- 000,000. - , . The unbonded war debt was pia-ect at $3,250,000,000 by Mr. Mondell, who said it was a “continual menace, but when reduced by the anticipated surplus would bring the country “within reaching distance of reduc tions of the burdens of taxation.

J. Whittier. Suite 229, 1100 Mcgee, Kansas City, Mo.—(Advt.) Frederick Gimbel, of New York, Is Arrested On Profiteering Charge NEW YORK. June 19. —Frederick Gimbel, first vice president of Gim bel Brothers’ department store, with branches in many cities, was arrested today by department of justice agents on a charge of profiteering in cloth ing. Gimbel is head of the New York store. J. J. Dowdell, general merchandise manager of the store, and C. D. Slaw ter, clothign buyer, also were ar rested on similar charges. All three are charged with making profits in clothing of from 90 to 275 per cent. The warrants were served by Les ter S. Kafer, special assistant to At torney General Palmer, heading one of the flying squadrons investigat ing the profiteering here. The arrests came as a complete surprise at the store and officials there at first stated they believed there must have been some error. S. R. Coons, advertising director, later gave out the following state ment: “We have not had time to look into the matter. It is possible that in a business so great there might be one or more colored pieces of merchandise marked at a higher price than is provided for in the regula tions. All we.know is that it is and has been our desire and intention to comply with all government regu lations.” The warrants served this morning were issued last night by United States Commissioner Hitchcock on complaints of flying squadron agents who charged four specific instances of profiteering. One of the highest profits alleged to have been made was at an ad vert'sed sale of men's clothing. It is charged a suit costing $33 was sold for $75. Other charges were that a $5.50 mohair suit was sold at S2O; a sls suit was sold for $33.75; and another suit costing $5.50 was sold at sls. Gimbel, Dowdell and Slawter were released in SI,OOO bail each when arraigned before Commissioner Hitch cock. July 6 was set for their pre liminary examinations. COX SEEN AS CHOICE OF DEMOCRATS IS M'ADOOSAYS 10" WASHINGTON, June 19. —Admin- istration Democrats were leaving Washington for San Francisco today frankly in the dark as to candii rtes b.t with very definite plans as to what planks should go into the Dem ocratic platform. The uncertainty as to candidacies was th- result of the announcement of William G. McAdoo’s decision not to allow his name to go before the Democratic convention. Democrats who were backing the McAdoo candidacy here said they “would consider it an affront to Mr. McAdoo” to take his name before the Democratic convention. If neces sary. they said Mr. McAdoo again will make it plain that he doesn’t want the nomination. These statements W’ere made in an swer to rumore that Mr. McAdoo might reconsider his withdrawal, if he were actually nominated. That President Wilson might have to throw the administration strength behind some candidate to avoid a long deadlock in the convention was regarded as extremely probable de spite Mr. Wilson's assertion that he hi. 5 not acted in behalf of any can didate. President Wilson’s interview with the New York World supplementing his previous indorsement of the Vir ginia Democratic platform left, no v .certainty as to the policies the ad ministration Democrats will fight for. The Cox Situation Democrats, as they embarked for their cross-continent trip, declared tha Governor James M. Cox, with McAdoo’s -withdrawal, would get the Democratic nomination early in the convention if it were not for the op position o W. J. Bryan and other drys. There was some talk of an at tempt to get Governor Cox and Mr. Bryan together by having Governor Cox declare for a law enforcement plank. Failing in this, Democrats were for nominating Governor Cox anyway in the belief that he would carry New York, New Jersey, proo ably California, his own state of Ohio and the Democratic solid south running on a beer and light wine plank. The movement to Carter Glass, which McAdoo supporters started, ap parently lost momentum soon after it got under way. Mr. Glass pointed + the weak spot of his candidacy when he said he lived in a section “which is relied upon to furnish the electoral votes, but not the candi dates,” Democrats said. Dark Horse Talk It also was pointed out that Mr. McAdoo’s strength came from labor in a large measure and that Senator Glass could not hope to inherit this. The name of Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby also was on a num ber of Democratic lips as a possible dark horse and there was a slight spurt in the talk of John W. Davis, ambassador to Great Britain. The McAdoo withdrawal coming on the heels of the Wilson interview brought a revival of reports that President Wilson would seek a third terra. Two Democratic senators de nied that Mr. Wilson would seek a third term and declared that the re ports were started to injure him. Both these senators are close to the White House- So far ts the Democratic platform is concerned, Senator Glass figura tively carried it in his pocket as he left here with the Virginia delega tion. He is slated to head the reso lutions committee on which admin istration backers believed they are assured a majority of the members. The Glass Platform The Glass platform calls for rati fication of the treaty without reser ■vations which injures its “essential integrity,” condem'ns the Republican congress, praises the Wilson admin istration, calls for a reduction in the cost of living by passage of meas ures advocated by President Wilson in one of his messages to congress and declares against a soldier bonus. Still in the making are the prohi bition and labor planks. The decision of Mr. McAdoo not to allow his name to go before the convention became known when he gave out a telegram which he sent late Friday to Jouette Shouse at Washington, in reply to a wire from the latter, asking him for a definite statement as to his candidacy and making a last request that Mr. Mc- Adoo allow his friends to place him in nomination. Authorities Believe Several Persons Know Slayer of Elwell NEW YORK, June 19.—Belief that several persons know the identity of the murderer of Joseph Bowne Elwell whist expert and turfman, but through a desire not to involve the name of a woman have withheld facts, will be the keynote of the in vestigation conducted by Assistant District. Attorney Joyce today. Mr. Joyce said he felt sure the murderer realized his identity was known to these persons. District Attorney Swann conduct ing an additional investigation said “we are as far from the solution as we were on Friday morning, when the whist expert was found dying at his home.” The identity of the "woman in pink,” the owner of the lingerie, found in Elwell’s home, was definite ly established yesterday. Mr. Swann said. Her name, however, he said would be withheld. He would refer to her only as “Miss Wilson.” the name by which she was known to Mrs. Marie Larsen, Elwell’s house keeper. Public Health Chief To Investigate Plague In Gulf Coast Cities WASHINGTON, June 19. —Surgeon General Cumming, of the Public Health Service, will leave here Mon day for Pensacola, New Orleans and Galveston to look over the bubonic plague situation. General Mosby’s Statue Unveiled in Virgina WARRENTON, Va„ June 19.—A marble statue of Colonel John Single ton Mosby, noted leader of Mosby’s Rangers of the Confederate army, was unveiled here today, having’been provided with a fund for which con tributions w’ere received from the en tire south. Colonel Mosby, who died on Memo rial day four years ago, was born in Virginia in 1833 and after serving in the Confederate army tw'o years was commissioned to organize the battalion of cavalry which later be came famous as one of the most ef fective organizations in either the Confederate or Union armies. After the waj’ General Grant and Colonel Mosby‘became close friends and Colonel Mosby was one of the most ardent supporters of General Grant in his campaign for the presi dency . Release Sought by Brownsville Rioters KANSAS CITY, June 19.—Habeas corpus petitions on behalf of thirty nine negro prisoners now serving life sentences in the federal prison at Leavenworth, were up for hearing before Judge John C. Pollock in the United States district court in Kan sas City, Kansas, today. The thirty-nine were received at the prison in December, 1917, sen tenced by court-martial for partici pation in a riot by negro troops of the twenty-fourth infantry, at Hous ton, Texas, August 24, 1917, in which twelve white men, police officers, national guardsmen and civilians were killed. Thirteen negroes, con vibted by court-martial, were hanged. President Wilson confirmed the life sentences imposed on thirty nine. QUARANTINE ON PINK BOLL WORM BEGUN BY STATE The Georgia state board of ento mology, in order to prevent the in festation of Georgia cotton fields by the pink boll worm, has promulgated stringent quarantine restrictions on the importation of cotton and cotton seed from certain districts of Texas and, Louisiana. The announcement of the quarantine was made Satur day by State Entomologist A. C. Lewis, on his erturn from a meeting of the board held in Thomasville. The pink boll worm is character ized as the worst enemy of the cot ton farmer, even more to be dreaded than the boll weevil. The latter can be controlled to a certain extent, but no scientific means of controlling the pink boll worm has yet been dis covered. The only method is to pro hibit cotton production within a wide radius of any spot found to be in fested. The boll worm is an immi grant from Mexico, like the boll wee vil. It is prevalent in certain dis tricts in Texas and Louisiana and is working its way eastward. Alabama and Mississippi have in stituted strict quarantines against cotton shipments from Texas and Mississippi and the Georgia regula tions follow along the lines of these two states. No shipments of cotton or its by-products except cottonseed oil, are permitted to enter Georgia without a permit from the board oi entomology, while shipments from certain territories are absolutely pro hibited. The regulations of the Georgia board institute a quarantine against shipments from: “In the state of Texas the coun ties of Jefferson, Chambers, Galves ton, Brazqria. Harris, Liberty, Fort Bend, Hai’din and Newton in South eastern Texas. Also in west Texas the counties of Presidio, Brewster, Val Verde, Kinney and MaveHck and a zone thirty miles wide around these counties, and a zone with a radius of ten miles around Hearn, Texas. “In the state of Louisiana the parishes of Cameron, Jefferson Davis and Calcasieu and a zone thirty miles wide around these parishes; also a zone with a radius of ten miles surrounding the oil mills located at Shreveport, Alexandria,, Monroe, Boussard, Bunkie, Eunice and Gretna in the state of Louisiana within thir ty miles of an area known to have been infested by the pink boll worm within the past two years. “The articles against which the quarantine specifically applies are as follows: cotton, cotton seed, seed cotton cotton seed hulls, cotton lint and linters, cotton waste, cotton sweepings, cotton samples, cot ton mill waste, damaged and re.dried cotton, cake and meal but not cotton seed oil; also household goods containing any prohibited ma terials either as packing or other wise, cotton bagging, sacks and oth er containers for cotton, ginning and milling machinery which has been used in the Infested or restricted areas within thirty months, also bal ed hay and corn in the shuck. “Shipments of these articles xyill be permitted to enter Georgia on spe cial permit issued by the Georgia state board of entomology.” The board after going over the work now being conducted and the demands for work on pecap insects, peach diseases, tobacco insects and for conducting the eradication of the mosiac disease of sugar cane, has de cided to ask the legislature for an increase of $15,000 in the appropria tion now made for the Georgia state board of entomology. The present appropriation is $60,000. William P. Pollock to Oppose Ellison Smith In Senatorial Race COLUMBIA. S. C., June 19.—Wil liam P. Pollock, former United States senator, today filed his pledge and announced his candidacy for the United States senate in opposition to the incumbent, Ellison Durant Smith, stating that in his opinion the na tional Democratic convention will adopt a platform which is pro gressive and for the best interests of the whole people and he will stand upon that platform. Senator Pollock said that he would not spend any money on his cam paign, would not open headquarters, have a campaign manager, advertise or carry on letter writing, but would appeal in person to the people of the state. He said that while he was grate ful to the people of the state for their election of him to the United States senate to succeed the late Sen ator Tillman, his term of service was -o short that he could not make much of a record. He craves for at least one full term in the senate where he can be of real service. M 1 BW lib Calomel salivates! It’s mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver.

Fullbright, state tax commissioner of Georgia, and a vet eran member of the legislature pre vious to his tenure of his present office, lays great emphasis In his annual report to the legislature upon the need for a complete revision of the tax laws of Georgia. He recommends the adoption of the plan worked out by the special tax commission whose report was submitted to the legislature at the 1919 session. That plan provided for the classification of property accord ing to its kind, for the making of different rates of taxation upon dif ferent classes of property, for an income tax, and for certain changes in the inheritance taxes then and now existing. The legislature raised the rate oi inheritance taxes, which the commission recommended, but did not adopt the other recommen dations. They involved constitution al amendments. If the plan as submitted and as now before the legislature is not ac ceptable, recommends Commissioner Fullbright, there should be treated another tax commission to study the subject and make a report. He re marks, however, that the previous tax commission devoted months of study to taxation, worked out a plan embodying the best features of the most progressive state tax systems in the country, and held public hear ings throughout the state. Commissioner Fullbright show’s, by way of illustrating what he terms the failure of the existing tax sys tem, that the total assessed value of real estate and personal property in Georgia is only 35 per cent of its actual value, and that 86 of the 155 counties are even lower than 35 per cent. In this connection he has worked out and is undertaking to apply this year to all county tax digests an equalization scale that will bring them up to something like a uniform percentage of assess ments to actual value. He shows that the total amount of money on hand, including bank deposits, and the total notes, ac counts and other evidences of debt, returned for taxation on January 1, 1919, was $6G,582,326; whereas on that date there was on deposit in Atlanta banks alone, according to their statements, a total of $85,000,- 000. He estimates that the total in tangible property of Georgia escap ing taxation is not less than SBOO.- 000,000, or nearly as much as the to tal returned value of the real estate of the state, which was $982,623,580 in 1919. (The tax digests for 1920 are not yet completed.) Commenting upon the necessity for a general revision of the state’s tax laws, Commissioner Fullbright says: “Our entire code of revenue laws should be revised and our systems of taxation modernized. If the gen eral plan recommended by the spe cial tax commission in 1919 is not adopted at the 1920 session, then provision should be made for the ap pointment of another tax commis sion to 'continue the work of inves tigating revenue laws, in order that the matter may be given the con sideration which its importance de mands. “No government can be main tained without revenues, no state can maintain its institutions without funds. If the state of Georgia is to continue its policy of maintaining free schools for the education of its children, and furnishing pensions to Confederate soldiers and their wid ows. as well as miantaining the elee mosynary institutions, then its reve nues must be adequately provided, and should be raised by law in keep ing with the conditions of the pres ent time. “Our uniform end ad valorem sys tem having failed for a number of years to supply the revenue for the state’s absolute requirements. has been supplemented by the levy of special license fees and other reve nus of more or less doubtful legality. All interests which enjoy the protec tion of the state should pay their just proportion of the expenses of government. Some equitable and just method should be -found for tax ing what is known as Intangible property, and make it contribute to the state just as tangible, visible properly is now taxed. Under the existing law there is no distinction, but in practice it is quite apparent that very little of this class of prop erty ever gets on the tax books.” First Cotton Blooms SYCAMORE, Ga„ June 19.—The first cotton blooms of the season are being shown on the streets, and it is hoped that the boll weevil will not attack the early crop. ■ without making you sick, you just . go back and get your money. , If you take calomel today you’ll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be , sides, it may saliva-te you, while if ■ you take Dodson’s Liver Tone you i will wake up feeling great, full of • ambition and ready for work or play, • You can give it to children, too.
