ASSEMBLY BODIES
CONSIDER MANY
. VITAL MEASURES
House and senate committees put
in a busy afternoon on Wednesday,
considering many measures of vital
importance. The house appropria
tions committee heard arguments on
a bill appropriating $50,000 for a new
dormitory at Bowden college and an
other measure asking for $20,000
maintenance fund. A subcommittee
from the same committee considered
the various enducational appropria
tions sought this year and came to
the conclusion that all such bills
should be classified as to their de
gree of necessity.
The present condition of the state
treasury precludes the appropriation
of the full amount asked by the va
rious educational institutions of the
state an«i it is proposed to appro
priate the minimum amount that can
be named for the present, with the
hope that the revenues of the state
may be increased through the tax re
form measures now under considera
tion. If these constitutional amend
ments are approved by the people, a
special session of the general assem
bly can be. called this winter and
additional approprations made for the
state’s educational institutions.
The educational committee of the
house voted to report adversely on
a bill by Mr. Covington, of Colquitt,
to designate "Frances Willard” day
as a legal holiday in Georgia. Fa
vorable reports were ordered on bills
to co-operate with the federal gov
ernment in vocational rehabilitation
for persons injured in industry; to
establish illiteracy schools; to per
mit the increase in the tax rate for
retirement of school bonds.
J?he workmen’s compensation bill,
tne provisions of which have been
agreed upon by the Georgia Manu
facturers’ association, the Georgia
Federation of Labor and the insur
ance companies, was favorably con
sidered by the house committee on
commerce and labor. The same com
mittee killed a bill providing for two
field agents for the department of
labor.
The senate committee on privileges
and elections unanimously recom
mended the passage of two enabling
bills by Senator Elders, which would
permit women to vote in the state
primaries and elections this fall if
the thirty-sixth state ratifies the
equal suffrage amendment to the na
tional constitution. Under the Geor
gia law the registration books close
six months ahead of the date of
election, thus disqualifying women
who might vote undei’ federal suf
frage legislation.
Two bills affecting the state uni
versity were also given favorable
reports by the University of Georgia
committee of the senate. The first
of these measures makes Franklin
college, which is the academic de
partment of the University of Athens,
co-educational. The second bill re
peals the act authorizing the appoint
ment of three members of the state
university board as members of the
boards of trustees of the various
branches of the university system.
Women Will Demand
That Cox Aid Them
In Fight for Vote
COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 15.—Suf
frage leaders in their conference with
Governor Cox tomorrow will demand
that the first work of his campaign
be to force Democratic legislatures
in Tennessee and North Carolina to
ratify the nineteenth amendment,
and thus give all women a vote next
November.
Miss Alice Paul, head of the Na
tional Woman’s party, who arrived
hero today, stated that the delega
tion will be satisfied with nothing
less than a promise from the gover
nor that he will make energetic ef
forts in the two states to complete
ratification. The same delegation
will make a similar demand on Sen
ator Harding next Thursday.
“The outcome of this conference
will be one of the most important
events in Governor Cox’s campaign,”
said Miss Paul. “It’s the oppor
tunity to accomplish more than can
be obtained on any other issue, for to
give freedom to half a country is a
chance that has never come to a party
before.”
“Fruit Queen” Picks

ASHEVILLE, July 15. —Mrs. C. E.
Mease, of Cruse, Haywood county,
holds the record for the cherry crop
for this year, for she has just
brought to the city fifty-eight gal
lons of cherries which she states she
gathered personally from one tree.
Mrs. Mease, who is known as the
“fruit queen” of her section, says
she has 15,000 apple trees which are
bearing this year.
Americans Caught in
Triest Hotel Fire
TRIEST, July 13. —Francis Flynn,
of San Antonio, Tex., who escaped
from a burning hotel during the anti-
Slav demonstrations here Tuesday,
is an American sailor and head of
the United States navy communica
tion service, Triest. Flynn was
trapped on the fifth floor and made
his escape by jumping twenty feet to
the street.
Several American families who
were caught in the burning hotel had’
just arrived from America and were
awaiting trains to Jugo-Slavia.
Scores presented themselves at the
American consulate today quite des
titude, having lost all their belong
ings.
Among them was Rufus Ryman,
of Nashville, Tenn. Ryman was dec
orated by the Italian government for
bravery in the Durazzo fighting dur

ARMED MEN LOOT
POSTOFFICE AT
DUBLIN, IRELAND
DUBLIN, July 16.—Fifty armed
men raided the main postoffice here
early today, seizing all government
mail.
Several police constables were
wounded in a fight with Sinn Fein
ers at Foynes, County Limerick.
The Sinn Feiners ambushed the con
stables on. the outskirts of the town.
Military authorities seized 580
rounds of ammunition at Bunratty
castle, County Clare.
The railway strike was assuming
serious proportions today as a re
sult of refusal to handle munitions
or work trains carrying armed sol
diers and police. At Clones, County
Moneghan, five railwaymen were
kidnaped by armed men and convey
ed in a motor car to an unknown des
tination. It was believed they were
kidnaped because they -worked on
trains carrying ammunition in the
places of dismissed men.
Georgia Legion to
Hold Convention in
Augusta August 19
The Georgia division of the Ameri
can Legion will meet in Augusta
for its second annual convention on
August 19. The official order of the
state executive committee fixing the
date was issued yesterday, and many
Atlanta legionalres are planning to
attend.
At the first state convention in
Atlanta last October the Louis L.
Battey post, No. 4, of Augusta, won
the second convention after spirited
competition with Macon, Columbus
and other cities. Landon Thomas,
Jr., commander, and George Hains,
vice commander of the Augusta post,
have been at work for many weeks
completing; all arrangements for the
big meet, which will be held in the
commodious clubrooms of the Battey
post.
Veterans of the war who attended
the Atlanta convention last year re
member the heated debates which
were precipitated by motions to in
dorse the League of Nations and
compulsory military training, and by
other important discussions. The ma
jority of these matters went over as
unfinished business, and are likely
to be features of the Augusta ses
sion.
The Atlanta legionnaires who con
template attending the convention
and who desire further details con
cerning local arrangements are re
quested to communicate with Lan
don Thopias, Jr., Augusta, Ga.

When the noon gong rang the

Soviets Offer Reward
For Head of Ex-Czar
LONDON, July 15.—The Soviet
government is offering a reward of
two million rubles for the head of a
man claiming to be Czar Nicholas of
Russia, according to information re
ceived by the Jewish Correspondence
bureau today.
The advices say the claimant, who
is in Siberia, has raised a consid
erable following. In accounting for
his escape from the hands of the
Bolshevik! he asserts it was a serv
ant impersonating the czar who was
killed at Yekaterinburg, where the
czar and his family are understood
to have been executed.
River Turns About
And Runs Upstream
HICKMAN, Ky.—Without visible
cause, the water in the Mississippi
river near the shore became turbu
lent, began to whirl and then ran
upstream a short distance.
Waves, which were ten feet high,
sank a fishboat, nearly overturned a
barge and filled it half full of water,
tore loose small craft and broke heavy
lines that held boats to shore.
The phenomenon, which lasted sev
eral minutes, was witnessed by a
number of persons. There was no
wind and the rest of the river was
calm.
Fourth Plague Victim

THIRD PARTYITES
ARE NO PARLOR
REDS AT ALL
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Copyright, 1920, for The Atlanta Journal.)
CHICAGO, HL, July 15. —Parlor
socialists have met the real Bol
shevists at the third party conven
tion here, and will probably go home
sadder but wiser men.
For the committee of Forty-eight
was largely a group of progressives,
called radicals and Bolshevists by
their conservative friends, but real
ly conservatives themselves when
ranged alongside the farmer and la
bor groups with their extreme de
mands and errant psychology.
But the reader must understand
at the outset that by the terms
“farmer” and labor as used in the
third party convention, a small min
ority of agricultural workers and a
small minority of toilers in factor
ies and railroads is meant. So radi
cal and Bolshevistic are the aims of
the so-called farmer and labor
groups gathered here that even the
much condemned non - partisan
league of North Dakota farmers has
hesitated to get behind the farmer
groups here whole-heartedly and
join in the orgy of agitation and
destruction which the platform of
the majority of the committee repre
senting the so-called farmer and la
bor alliance asked the third party
to adopt.
Even Robert M. La Follette, re
garded as the radical of radicals in
the United States senate, declined to
run on the extremist platform.
Want Bolshevism
The truth of the matter is that
the extremist plainly asked for the
nearest approach to Bolshevism
that has yet been suggested in a
pasty convention or political gath
ering to their bosoms nearly all the
they went a step further in gath
ering to their bosom? morly all the
malcontents in America, including
the people who in one breath de
nounce the League of Nations as an
entangling alliance and a provoker
of wars and who in the next breath
would risk war between the United
States and Great Britain unless rec
ognition of the Irish republic is
granted by both, and the people who
want to stir up the race problems
of America anew by granting equal
social as well as political rights to
negroes and who want to affiliate
with the revqlutionists in India and
Egypt and ehter into a hearty kin
ship with soviet Russia.
Every mention of the Russian
soviet was cheered, and every ref
erence to Imitating what the work
ers had done in Russia was ap
plauded.
It was a gathering of agitators
from all parts of the United States,
including men who started the out
law strike on the railroads a few
months ago and the men who have
been threatening to overthrow Sam
uel Gompers and the conservative
of organized labor as a part
of their program of chaos and revo
lution.
Small wonder that Mr. Gompers
has had trouble repressing radicals
in the ranks of labor. And if the
minority had a sincere purpose in
trying to get possession of the labor
organizations throughout the country,
it might be a different story; but
the writer was assured by members
of the Committee of Forty-Eight that
this convention was indeed a revela
tion to them and that many of the
leaders of the labor groups here were
merely playing a game of labor poli
tics intended to help them gain the
big offices in organized labor for
themselves—simply a case of per
sonal ambition which is so much
derided when individuals give vent
to similar human aspirations in the
Republican and Democratic parties.
Like a Safety Valve
It was a good thing all the ex
tremists in America were gathered
together in a single room or at least
representatives of every extremist
faction, for the whole thing was like
a safety valve. It was well to al
low all the steam to blow off. The
extreme radicals revealed their own
hypocracies. They refused even a
courteous hearing to the progressives
and liberals who tried to furnish po
litical sense to the third party pro
gram and guide it along rational
lines in away that, it was contended
by George L. Record, of New Jersey,
for instance, would convert millions
of citizens who might otherwise close
their minds and refuse even to listen
to the third party argument. The
progressives like Amos Pinchot and
Mr. Record argued that as a matter
of pilitical expediency it was not
wise to go too far in the first year
of the third party’s program.
But the word “expediency was
like waving a flag in front of
a bull. Speaker after speaker from
the ranks of labor rose and shouted
that as between expediency and
principle they preferred principle no
matter where it led them —a splen
did manifestation of fighting spirit,
but as valuable in a political meet
ing as it would be at the battle line
if troops refused to retreat when a
commander advised it for strategic
reasons or as a maneuver toward ul
timate victory. The labor group said
plainly they didn’t even care wheth
er La Follette accepted the nomina
tion, though most of them must
have realized he was their best
champion on the stump and their
best vote-getter.
Misguided Energy
They would insist, they said, on
making a platform first and then
getting a candidate who would run
on it. They were ready to denounce
La Follette as out of sympathy with
the aspirations of subject peoples,
and they did Indeed shout down sev
eral speakers, although one of the
planks of the platform referred in
emphatic terms to free speech. Time
and again the chairman of the con
vention 'had to intercede with the
audience to permit an individual to
speak who had been given the floor
in accordance with the rules of pro
cedure. Cries of “sit down” and
“throw him out,” - which one would
have suspected took place only in
capitalistic gatherings when a lib
eral thought is uttered, were the
commonest occurrence in the third
party meeting. All the passion of
the mob, all the misguided energy
of some sincere reformers and pro
gressives, all the menacing theories
of the economic revolutionists were
let loose here without interference
by federal or state police and as a
consequence the extremists have
shot their bolt and no one need fear
that they will hereafter get even
the aid and comfort they have been
getting at the hands of the intel
lectual socialists.
The radicals demanded not merely
Democratic control of all industry
and a share in the management of
enterprises, but they demanded gov
ernment ownership and operation of
all public utilities as well as natural
resources.
They never said a word about com
pensation for those mines, stocks
yards, oil wells, etc., which would
be taken over by the government from
their individual owners. Nor did
they suggest a means whereby the
millions of citizens whose money is
invested in natural resources were to
get compensation and thus prevent
panic and misery to the whole coun
try by such economical upheaval.
Government Ownership
They demanded government owner
ship of most everything and the
workers management of most every
thing and offered Soviet Russia as
a concrete example of their aims.
Small wonder some of the mem
bers of the committee of forty-eight,
reluctantly but indignantly admitted
that they had encountered the real
Bolshevists and drew away from
them with the same disdain that their
conservative brethren have felt for
such radicalism in the past.
It was an hour of disillusionment
for patriotic, order-loving progressive
and a repetition of what always has
happened when liberals try to accom
plish reforms through extremists and
noise-making agitators. The ex
tremists killed what might have been
a moderate program of liberalism in
a campaign containing no small bur
den- of studied conservatism and
avowed reaction.

I HARDING RESENTS
SUFFRAGE ATTACK
ON REPUBLICANS
MARION, 0., July 15.—Senator
Harding in a statement last night
resented what he characterized as
"persistent misrepresentations” of
the Republican party’s attitude to
wards woman suffrage and said to
his party belonged the credit for
. that reform ever having a chance of
. success.
He deplored, however, efforts to
I make political capital out of the sit
uation and said he hoped ratification
would be accomplished before Novem
ber, no matter whether a Democratic
or Republican state was the thirty
sixth to approve the suffrage amend
ment.
"Even if a Democratic state shall
finish the business, the record will
j still show that twenty-nine Repub
| lican and seven Democratic states
made up the roll of honor,” Senator
i Harding said. “That is good enough
for us.”
“My patience is sorely tested some
times over the persistent misrepre
sentations of the Republican party,
its state governors and legislatures
in this matter of woman suffrage.
“Whether it emanates from mere
mischief-makers, or from partisan
desires, I cannot help resenting it.
We must insist on having fair treat
ment of the party without whose
persistent support the great reform
would never have had a chance of
success.
"A Republican senate and a Re
publican house submitted the consti
tutional amendment for equal suf
frage. A Democratic senate had pre
viously refused to submit it. Twen
ty-nine Republican and six Demo
cratic states have ratified it.
"Six Democratic states have re
jected the ratification resolution,
and another, Louisiana, has just re
fused to give it consideration. One
Republican state—just one, Dela
: ware—has rejected it. The first
i eight states to ratify were Repub-
"When in 1919 the Republican sen
! ate finally mustered the necessary
majority to submit the amendment
there were thirty-six Republican and
only twenty Democratic senators vot
ing for it, but there were seventeen
Democratic and only eight Republican
senators voting against it.
“Whether in the senate or house,
in congress or state legislatures, the
record shows that the Republicans
have been the persistent and effec
tive supporters of this measure. In
such circumstances —circumstances
" that are thoroughly familiar to ev
erybody—it is simply amazing that
Democratic managers should now
have the audacity to be assuming
that they are the friends on who
the cause must depend if It is to
succeed.
"For myself and for the Repub
lican party, I earnestly desire that
ratification may be accomplished in
time to give the whole body of
American women the ballot next No
vember. I am wearied with efforts
to make partisan advantage out of
this situation. I hope there will be
ratification, and I do not care a fig
whether it is secured through a Re
publican or a Democratic state. I
will rejoice if North Carolina will
do it, or if Tennessee will do It, just
as I would rejoice if a Republican
State did it. , .
“There will be glory enough for
the Republican party no matter
whether the thirty-sixth state is Re
publican or not. If any word Ox
mine could possibly be Influential
with any Republicans in the North
Carolina legislature, the word would
be ‘vote for ratification and don t
worry about who gets the credit of
putting it over.’ ’’
Another quiet day was in pros
pect today when Senator Harding
resumed work on his speech of ac
ceptance. No visitors were expect
ed. The Republican presidential
nominee hoped to have the speech
ready to turn over to the news serv
ices on Saturday for distribution to
the newspapers of the country.

CROP PROSPECTS
HERE ARE GOOD,
BRADSTREET SAYS
The agricultural outlook is highly
favorable, building activities are
continuing at a lively clip, notwith
standing the high price of material,
cotton is thriving and a bumper crop
of sweet potatoes is predicted, says
J. E. C. Redder, southeastern man
ager for Bradstreet’s, in his sum
mary of financial and Industrial con
ditions for the past week.
Sharp reductions in prices of
men’s furnishings are noted, and it
is shown that retailers in all lines
are exercising extreme caution in
making purchases. The peach crop
is described as somewhat short, al
though the report adds that the
high price will more than offset the
shortage.
Mr. Pedder’s complete report fol
lows:
“Wholesale and retail trade is
quiet. Jobbers say retailers are
buying with extreme caution, al
though cancellations appear to be de
creasing. Marked-down sales con
tinue and reductions in men’s fur
nishings are almost general. Satis
factory business is being done in the
general hardware and implement line
with prices high. Collections gen
erally are slow and many accounts
are reaching attorneys’ hands. Build
ing is active and all materials are
high. Real, estate is also active and
numerous transfers are being made
daily. The warm weather with, oc
casional showers has been very
beneficial to all growing crops. Cot
ton especially is doing well and
fruiting fast.' The boll wevil is do
ing some damage in certain sections,
but prospects for cotton are much
improved. Corn is doing well, al
though worms have appeared in
places and are doing damage. Pea
nuts and sweet potatoes have been
planted. Fruit crops, especially
peaches, will be reduced, although
the high price will more than off
set the shortage. Some brown rot
is reported.”
