VILLa ON SURRENDER TO HIS FORMER FOES SAN PEDRO, Coahuila, Mex., Aug. 10.—Francisco Villa surrendered Monday. After years of banditry and defl flance of both the Mexican and the United States government, the fa pious outlaw delivered himself into the power of the federals in the afternoon, and drowned his sorrows in a bottle of cognac. The formal surrender ceremonies will take place later, with pomp and circumstance, but Villa actually placed his person in the hands of his former enemies today. He met General Eugenio Martinez, federal commander, under an old tree on a ranch five miles from San Pedro. Villa marched as far as San “P«4ro with his men. He left his troops in the town sjid with only a handful of retainers, rode on to the rendezvous to deliver himself up in accordance with the agreement reached with the government re cently. Half a dozen military representa tives of President de la Huerta, with the General Martinez among them, were waiting for Villa under the tree. He galloped up In his cus tomary dashing style, then swung from his horse and waved his hand gaily to the little group of officers. There was a general handshaking, and then a bottle of cognac was pro duced. Villa’s differences with the, central government were speedily drowned in the fiery liquor. To Demobilize Army General Martinez later in the week will have charge of the demobiliza tion of the Villista troops. Each man is to be given a small ranch. Villa will be given a large ranch and a personal bodyguard of fifty of his men, who he will select ana who will be on the government payroll. Villa received one of the greatest ovations of his career when he rode back to San Pedro. A crowd esti mated at 3.000 people welcomed the former bandit with a chorus of lusty “Vivas.’ „ Forcing his way through the throng, bowing right and left, Villa was nearly overcome by his emotions. He finally was moved to make a very eloquent speech, which was wildly cheered. The mam theme or Villa’s speech was that the People ought to forget Politics and back to work. He said that he had set them a good example. Villa was attired in riding breeches, leather leggins reaching above the knee, a cotton Jacket and a huge straw sombrero. Shortly after his arrival he discarded the straw for a handsome felt hat of American make which was presentedl to him by. his admirers. Despite the fact tfiat he is now forty-eight years old and that he and his men had ridden, on the last leg of their journey for twenty four hours across the desert, with out water, Villa appeared to be in the best of condition. He J ook ed rugged, healthy and stalwart, and annarentlv has thrived during the Fast two months while eluding gov ernment soldiers. “I will settle down on a ranch at Canutillo, Durango, where I’ll raise cattld and crops,” Villa said to re porters. “I admit that s a consid erable change from my life of the last fen years, but I believe 111 do more for my country if I keep out of politics altogether. I have not desired to hold public office of any kind. I hope to be able to help bet ter conditions In Mexico, including education. Personally I could not write my name until I was a grown man. I still have a very poor edu cation, but my words are sincere and when I say I want peace I mean it. Villa refused to discuss politics In detail or to express any opinion about the present federal government, except to say that he intended to abide by its laws. Receives Ovation Describing his trip from Chihua hua to where he surrendered he said he traveled 600 miles in twelve days and that for forty-eight hours he was on the desert without water. He said he knew the government was looking for him, so he decided to tell where he was but sought safe terri tory first. So he said he had to capture a town and thei| reveal his presence. Villa was the center of a joyous celebration in San Pedro today. He and his men were lionized. Bands paraded the plaza, playing the old Villista revolutionary song, “La Cu caracha,” which being interpreted means “The Cockroach,” and in which Villa is represented as boast ing that he will “get the whiskers of Carranza and make himself a gar ment of them.” One of the most dramatic episodes of the day was the meeting between Villa and General Escobar, one of the Carranza leaders responsible for the execution of Felipe Angeles, Villa’s old aid and close friend. Villa had sworn to kill those responsible for Angeles’ death. Today he met Es cobar face to face while he was standing with a group of officers talking about Mexican military men. “Angeles,” said Villa, “was Mexi co’s greatest general. Also he was my best friend. It was a crime to kill him.” As he spoke he fixed his eyes on Escobar and glared. Escobar kept his hand on his gun. The atmos phere was tense for a moment. No body spoke. Then General Martinez tactfully changed the subject and the crisis passed. Villa moved freely around town, cheered at every turn, but it was no ticed that he always had a body guard of five heavily armed men at his heels. His troopers looked fierce and wild. They were typical of the reckless band that made Villa’s name a ter ror throughout the north, and which eluded even Pershing’s expedition. Park Bench Home for Mother and Child 5 Days A green bench in the litte park at Amsterdam avenue and 136th street was “home” to Nellie Kelly and her infant for five days and nights. They slept on the bench because they had no other placd to go. Yesterday the young mother, when arraigned in Washington eHights court, explain ed why. Clad in rags and clinging to the soft bundle that she carried in her arms, Nellie presented a pathetic sight as she walked somewhat shakily into the courtroom. Her gar ments were frayed and stingy, but her baby was warmly clad. It was wrapped in a rubber blanket. This blanket had served to protect it from the dew during its enforced residence on the park bench. Nellie told a straightforward story to Magistrate Raphael Tobias. She said that because she was unmarried she had no home, no money, no friends and that her relatives had re fused to assist her. As she testi fied she tightened her fingers around the little bundle and drew it closer to her, fearing that an at tempt would be made to take the baby. Nellie’s stay on the park bench would liekly have been considerably longer had not her presence attracted the attentions of William Moore, of the Children’s society. He made a charge of vagrancy against her. Magistrate Tobias held the young woman for a hearing today, pending an investigation. Nellie gave her age as twenty-four. The baby is five weeks old. Bruce Barton Says Bible Is Best Book on Business CLEVELAND.—The Bible is the best one volume book on modern business, Bruce Barton, author and journalist of New York said at the convention of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. “The Bible has the greatest rec ord of salesmanship ever written,” he said. “St. Paul sold religion to Athens when it was fearfully over stocked with religion of its own. And he did it by making a survey of the situation and utilizing condi tions at hand, just as a modern salesman must do. “The great trouble with ministers is that they do not know what news , is,” Mr. Barton continued. “They must learn to trust newspaper men The things that Christ did were great news. They would be great news today. Peter’s release from jail by reason of the earthquake would deserve a headline today.” Dwarf Is Giant I Intellectually I !!w jliiii i i Willi wwj is Hl i PHOTO FRANK gomolSki FRANK GOMOLSKI CHICAGO —Giant intellects do not require seven-and-a-half-hat size heads.

FRANCE READY TO COMBAT GERMAN AID TO SOVIET • _ PARIS, Aug. 9.—France, acting alone, if necessary, is on the verge of sending a stern note to the Ger man government, informing It that France will act instantly and force fully to enforce the treaty of Ver sailles in its provisions for eastern Europe as well as for the west and that France can properly take coer cive action along the Rhine, accord ing to reports in the highest French official circles. The French government is declar ed to be convinced that Germany is plotting with the soviets to nullify the Polish boundaries created by the allies last year and hampering all allied efforts to aid the new republic during a critical period. The feeling is also ascribed to the French in official quarters that efforts by cer tain factions in Germany to provoke an open quarrel between the two countries is approaching a crisis. Within the last several days all supplies en route for French troops In the plebiscite area of upper Sile sia have been held up by German railway men and other AU of the Sarre basin is tied up by a strike and shipments for Poland - by way of Germany have been side tracked or wrecked. The communist party of Germany Is reported to have ordered its mem bers in east Prussia to extend a welcome to the bolshevik. Great trouble has been stirred up at Dan zig and the recent flag incident at the French embassy in Berlin re mains unsettled. It is declared in official circles that the French government cannot endure this state of affairs much longer and that France must show “that the treaty of Versailles Is more than a scrap of paper.” Louisiana Farmers Use Coad Method in Fighting 801 l Weevil All reports indicate that the Louis iana cotton crop will be the best in several years, if the boll weevil does not pick it before the farmer, ac cording to officials of the American Cotton association. The government demonstration of the success of the Coal method of combating this pest by calcium arsenate poisoning has resulted in many farmers buying ma chines and a stock of poison, and con testing with the weevil. In Pointe Coupee parish the Amer ican Cotton association has demon strated its practical utility to the farmer in assisting him in installing this method, and bringing about a reduction in cost of twenty per cent, besides procuring a guarantee from the manufacturer of the services of an expert throughout the cotton sea son, to show the farmers how to sup ply the poison. Hon. Sim. Parent, chairman of the American Cotton as sociation parish committee, and A. B. Curet, parish demonstration agenL who is secretary of the parish com mittee, made the deal with the manu facturers, on behalf of the members of the association, and eleven power machines, more than a hundred hand guns, and twenty tons of poison were bought. Reports from Ponte Coupee parish are that the crop is one of the finest in years, but the boll weevil has been very much in evidence. The fields which are being poisoned, are giv ing promise of yielding their maxi mum capacity. Radium for Cancer Free to Americans In New York Soon BUFFALO, N.

Atlanta Post of Legion Offers to Buy Liberty Bonds Os T. E. Il 7 at son at Par An offer to buy Thomas E. Wat son’s Liberty bonds at par value and to present them to him or anyone else who can prove his charges against the American Legion; a re view of the senate record of Thomas W. Hardwick, showing how he voted against bills designed to help win the war; a summary of* Grover C. Edmondson’s career, from his alleged indictment on the charge of carrying concealed weapohs to his latest stump speeches against the American Legion; and an attack on William Randolph Hearst as the avowed sup porter of Watson and Hardwick — these were the four outstanding fea tures of a meeting of Atlanta post, No. 1, of the American Legion, at Taft hall Monday night. Taft hall was packed to the doors. Every seat was filled, and about a hundred were standing. Besides members of the Legion, there were several ladies present and many men, old and young, not members of the Legion. That the entire audience was heart and soul with the Legion in its fight was proven, first, by the storms of cheers that greeted every speaker, second, by a standing vote on a resolution in which not a person arose when the “nos” were called for. Trammell Scott, presiding, opened the meeting by reading the principles and objects of the American Legion. The first speaker was Harry Alex ander, lawyer and Legionaire, who discussed Hardwick’s record in re ply to the challenge of J. K. Jor dan, Hardwick’s law partner and a Legionaire. Alexander Gives Becord Mr. Alexander, stating that his in formation came from the Congres sional Record, declared Hardwick voted against every measure that was introduced in the senate to win the war: (1) in 1915 against the ship purchase bill through which Ameri can troops were to get transports;(2) in June, 1916, against the bill for a nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals by which gunpowder and explosives would be supplied American arms, Hardwick basing his objections on the ground that the bill would allow the government to sell surplus ni trates to the farmers of the south; (3) against the selective service law, without which, said Mr. Alexander, the American army would not have been raised until last April at the rate of volunteer enlistments then coming in; (4) against the food con trol bill; (5) against the fuel con trol bill; (6) against the railroad control bill to keep the transporta tion system of the country from breaking down and to speed up troop shipments; (7) against the war finance corporation bill; (8) against the bill enlarging powers of the fed eral reserve banks so as to prevent a financial breakdown in the midst of the war; (8) against the esplon afe act, which, said Mr. Alex ander, was to “keep down the scoun drels who would have burned every munitions factory in the country and notified a German submarine of the departure of every transport, and the other scoundrels who would have excited insurrection against the draft law; Mr. Hardwick’s objections was that, under the bill, a man might give false information against his neighbor and it would have caused trouble in the neighborhood!” Deafening applause greeted the end of Mr. Alexander’s speech. Tram mell Scott then introduced William A. Sirmon. As he came to the front of the platform, there were cries of “Eat ’em up, ‘Swellhead!’” referring to Thomas E. Watson’s choice of a nickname for the boy who still bears the marks of German machine-gun bullets. Watson Blamed for Desertions .. Mr. Sirmon announced he could speak only a few minutes, as he must catch a train to Moultrie, where Hardwick is to speak Tuesday. He scored Watson, declaring among other things, that records at Camp Gordon cited a hundred cases of desertion during the war where the deserter’s only plea was, “Tom Watson said I didn’t have to go, and I thought Tom Watson knew 5 .” “Nobody knows how many thou sands of dollars Watson got on the promise to defend deserters,” said Mr. Sirmon. “And yet, the other day at Warm Springs, he denied in his speech that he ever received a cent,” continued the speaker. “One old fellow in the audience was a little hard of hear ing. He thought Watson was apolo gizing for, having taken the money, so he jumped to his feet and yelled, ‘That’s all right, Tom, ye can keep the S2O I give ye!’ Some give away —what?” The next speaker Trammell Scott introduced as “a man I will cite for conspicuous gallantry in the face of the enemy—the common enemy—last Wednesday at Barnesville, Ga., U. S. A.—Curtis Barrett!” Thunderous applause greeted the young man who rose in his place on the platform. The applause stopped as he neared the edge of the plat form. He grinned. They rose again to a tumult, and continued for two minutes before he could begin to speak. Barrett Speaks Mr. Barrett called no names in his speech, which was a plea for Amer icanism and a defense of the Legion as a 100 per cent organization of ex service men, privates and officers alike. He made it plain that, in in dorsing the Legion’s fight, he in dorsed, too, the proposition that the Legion supported no candidate, but simply opposed tow candidates. The man who doesn’t stand by the state of Georgia today, he asserted, is as great a slacker as the man who de serted in the war. Mr. Barrett was followed by Basil Stockbridge, who read the resolution, offering to buy Watson’s Liberty bonds at par value plus accrued in terest, and then to donate them either to Watson’s or Hardwick’s campaign any of his charges against the American Legion were proved be fore three justices of the state su preme court. Speaking to the resolution, Mr. Stockbridge said he was reliably in formed by a citizen of the Tenth dis trict, a neighbor of Watson’s, that Watson did not pay par value for the bonds, but that “we have no desire to quibble with him over the price. Our country’s security is worth to us 100 cents on the dollar. We de sire to destroy-the last vestige of argument he has that he contributed a single shred toward winning the war.” Who Kaiser Counted On “During the war there were cer tain creatures in America upon whom Kaiser Wilhelm counted,” continued Mr. Stockbridge. “He counted on them then, and he will count on them again if he is ever restored to power. And, by the looks of things now, that’s the way events are trending. One of those upon whom Kaiser Wil helm counted was a smooth, slimy in dividual by the name of William Randolph Hearst. He carried on his insidious propaganda for Germany until we went into the war, and then he made his individual peace with the United States government, thereby saving his hide. When the American Legion was in its incipiency, Mr. Hearst was kind enough to have his editorial writers in Atlanta give the Legion some very flattering notices. We were deceived; I, myself, was de ceived; But in the last forty-eight hours, they have felt our darts so keenly, that we have finally smoked ’em out! Three consecutive days they have devoted their chief editor ial against the American Legion in favor of Tom Hardwick and Tom Watson!” When the vote on the resolution was called, the audience rose, appar enty as one man. The opposition was called upon to stand. None stood, and those standing at the rear of the ha took to their knees. The meeting was concluded with a plea by Fonville McWhorter, treas urer of the Legion campaign, for funds to prosecute the campaign. “We’re getting calls for speakers from all over Georgia,” he stated, “and we need the money. The fact is, boys, the ‘beef trust’ and Wall street have failed to ante. So come across!” MORE LEGION POSTS JOIN HANDS WITH ATLANTA NO. 1 Dispatches received by The Jour nal Tuesday give accounts of the ac tion of two American Legion posts HOUSE ADOPTS . BILL CREATING LAMAR COUNTY By a vote of 134 to 48 the house of representatives Tuesday passed the senate bill creating the new county of Lamar from portions of Monroe and Pike counties, with the city of Barnesville as the county site. The debate and vote in the- house were witnessed by a large audience of interested citizens from both of the old counties who were both for and against the bill. Representative Holmes, of Monroe, and Representa tive Barrett ,of Pike, spoke against the bill on the ground that these two old and splendid middle Geor gia counties would be serlo'usly crippled against their wishes by the creation of Lamar county for no other reason than to satisfy the am bition of the city of Barnesville to be a county site. The debate on the Lamar county bill occupied practically all of the Tuesday morning session of the house, beginning shortly after 9 o’clock and running until noon, when the vote was taken and the result announced. The supporters of Lamar county in the gallery greeted the announcement with loud applause, and it was necessary for Speaker Holder to put forth a most stren uous effort to restore order in the hall. The Lamar county bill having been passed by the senate and the house will now go to the people for ratifi cation or rejection- in the general election to be held in the fall in the same manner as all constitutional amendments are referred. Dong County Taken Up After disposing of Lamar county, the house took up the senate bill to create the new county of Long, from a portion o fthe county of Liberty, with the town of Willacoochee as the county site. The bill was passed by a vote of 154 to 6. The bill before being passed was amended so as to leave off a portion of Liberty county which was originally proposed to be included in the new county, and the opponents of the bill, withdrew their opposition on a compromise basis. At this point in the deliberations in the house, the joint investigating committee of the house and senate presented its report against Dr. Pe ter F. Bahnsen, the state veterina rian, and Representative Williams, of Worth, introduced a resolution di recting the commissioner of agricul ture- to discharge Dr. Bahnseri from his office, and name a successor to take his place. The resolution was referred to th,e rules committee, and the house adjourned until 3 o’clock. Man Falls Five Floors From Burning Building While Crowd Watches NEW YORK.—A crowd of several thousand which gathered when sVnoke poured from the upper floors of an eight-story loft building at the northeast corner of Lafayette and Walker streets shortly after nook recently saw a man hang for nearly five minutes from the ledge of a' fifth-floor window and then drop through a steel-framed glass canopy over the building*s entrance, missing by a few feet a net which firemen had hastily got into place.

WUODEN SHIPPING TONNAGE HARD TO SELL, U. S. FINDS .WASHINGTON, D. C—Disposal of more than 1,500,000 tons of wood en shipping—4o6 vessels of various types—built as a part of the govern ment’s war-time merchant marine program is—one of the most difficult problems facing the shipping board. Twenty-one of the craft, aggregating 82,000 deadweight tons, were offered recently, but no buyers were found. Only 194 of these wooden craft are now in operation. Seventy-three are tied up at various ports under man aging caretakers and 139 are in stor age yards. One hundred and sev°T> of those in “storage” are hulls while thirty-two are converted barges. Officials of the board say that when the serviceability of the wooden fleet has been demonstrated little difficulty Will be experienced in turning it over to private ownership at about S9O a ton. These vessels were built in an emergency, many of green timber, and some of them made poor show ings a year and two years ago, but now that they have “seasoned,” offi cers of the board consider them prac ticable cargo carriers. Because of the bad record of some of the vessels operators have con demned them all, officials declare, whereas, the records of those now in operation show very creditable performances. One wooden ship out of six orund trips across the Atlantic, at sea 500 days and in port an equal number, was laid up for repairs only twenty-two days. To date wooden and composite ships, aggregating 1,948, 250 dead weight tons, consisting of 322 cargo ships, one tanker, 115 finished hulls, ten sailing craft, fifty-six hulls con verted into barges and twenty stand ard barges, have been delivered to the board. A total of 114 of these ves sels, aggregating 397,285 deadweight tons, has been sold and twelve total ing 44,546 tons have been lost at sea. The total cost of the construction of this fleet, estimated by the board at $l7O a deadweight ton, was ap proximately $333,000,000. Sale of the 1,500,000 tons now held by the board at S9O a ton would yield 0135,000,000. Those already sold brought about $28,000,000, so that if the 406 remain ing in the government's posession are disposed of to private ownets the total loss through the wooden ship venture would be something like $170,0 00,000. Whisky Men Lose SBI,OOO to Swindler CHICAGO. —Eighty-one thousand dollars was paid by a group of six Chicago whisky sales promoters for a few worthless slips of paper. To day three of the six rushed into po lice headquarters and cried for ven geance. They had been swindled while ar ranging for distribution among sa loon owners of SSO cases of whisky that had existed solely in the imag ination of the operator of the confi dence game and in bogus warehouse receipts, bills of sale and federal per mits for removal. The six men paid their SBI,OOO upon the sole security of the valueless but official looking sheets. The' three victims reporting the loss were Harry Nadel, years ago an investigator for the police depart ment and now head of a secret serv ice bureau patronized by many of the loop hotels; Al Powers, who says he is a nephew of Aiderman John Powers, and Rbert Fabbrini, sa loon owner. The three told Captain Morgan Collins that they are en gaged In the “promotin’’ of whisky sales. They said they have permits as wholesale liqur dealers. Nadel, Powers and Fabbrini drag ged with them into the police sta tion Samuel Listicki, an egg candler, whose weekly wage never has been above $35. Listicki, although locked in a cell, tells a story that convinces the police he was an innocent and un knowing dupe in the hands of the real swindler, who has vanished with the SBI.OOO.

K) EOT Mr. Dodson, the “Liver Tone”. Man, Tells the Treachery of Calomel Calomel loses you a day! Yitl know what calorie* is. It's mercury: quicksilver, calomel is dangerous. It cracTies into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, - constipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone, whicn is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, and can pot salivate. Don’t take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than a leopard or a wild-cat. Take Dodson’s Liver Tone which straightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harm less and doesn’t gripe.— (Advt.) Speedy Relief From Habitual Constipation The liver is the largest and most Important organ in the body, and when the liver refuses to act, it causes constipation, biliousness, headaches, Indigestion, gas, sour stomach. bad breath. dysentery, diarrhoea, pains in back and under shoulder blades and under ribs on right side. These symptoms lead to colds, influenza or other serious troubles unless corrected imme diately. An Inactive liver places an extra burden on the kidneys, which over taxes them and causes the blood to absorb and carry into the system the impurities that the liver and kidneys have failed to eliminate. When you treat the liver alone, you treat only a third of your trouble, and that is why you have to take purgatives every few nights. Calomel or other ordinary laxatives do not go far enough. If you would treat your kidneys and blood while treating the liver, you would put your entire system in order and freqent purgatives would then be unnecessary. Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years ago recognized these important facts, and after much study and research, compounded what is now known as Dt. Hitchcock’s Liver, Kidney and Blood Powders, three medicines combined in one. This was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip tion for many years, being used by his patients with marked success. It is a harmless vegetable remedy that will not make you sick, and you may eat anything you like while taking it. Get a large tin box from your druggist or dealer for 25c, under his personal guarantee that it will give relief, tone up the livCr, stimulate the kidneys to healthy action and thereby purify the blood. If your dealer will not supply you, it will be mailed direct by the Hitchcock Med icine Co., Atlanta, Ga., upon receipt of price.— (Advt.) DIMER SET. f W FBEEjbU fa g?
