Parents of One
Os Boy Bandits
Reaches Atlanta
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Taylor,
of Minneapolis, Come to
Help Extricate Wayward
Son
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Taylor, par
ents of Stuart Taylor, one of the
"boy bandits” arrested here last
after robbing two Peachtree
•treet drug stores in startling fash
ion, reached Atlanta Monday night
from their Minneapolis home, and
Tuesday were consulting with vari
ous authorities how best to cope
with the situation tha< had lodged
, their son and Eric May, his com
panion, in the Fulton tower under a
bond of $5,000 each.
Mr. Taylor said that his princi
pal hope lay in the leniency of the
Georgia laws toward juvenile offen
ders, and hoped that his son might
be put on probation. He said the
boy was only sixteen, Instead of
nineteen, as the boy stated when he
was arrested. May gave his age
as seventeen. “ *
The Atlanta police, following a
Communication from the police de
partment in Minneapolis, are in
clined to connect the boys with a
series of “handkerchief holdups” in
Minneapolis and St. Paul, in which
many shops and individuals were
robbed by “a tall man and a short
man,” wearing handkerchief masks,
the series ending November 13, the
Minneapolis police say, which is the
day before the boys are said to
have left their homes. Taylor, his
parents said, left a note informing
.them that he was going to San Fran
cisco.
letter to Mother
This note, which was the last
word the Taylors had of their son
•until they heard he had been arrested
in Atlanta, was as follows:
Dearest Mother: Knowing that
you would not let me join the
navy, have decided to join with
Red. Received a letter from
Ralph Bartz telling about the
openings in Frisco, so we decid
ed to go there. ' I am not leav
ing for any reason of treatment
at home, but because I want to
get out and because I do not
want to go to that school any
more.. I hope you will not at
tempt to follow’ me. I will try
and write to you as often as I
can safely. Please do not wor
ry about me. because it will
only be a waste of time. With
lots of love.
. SAM.
The parents of young May. un
able to come to Atlanta, gave to
the Taylors a note left by their boy
at the same time, both having dis
appeared simultaneously. It read:
Dear'Mum:
I knew that if I asked you,
’ you wouldn’t let me join the
navy, so 1 am leaving for San
Francisco tonight.
Will write to you in the very
near future, and will help you
out financially as soon as I am
in and receive my first pay.
I am not doing this on account
of any bad feeling, but I think
I w’ill get a lot of good experi
j ence. and you always w r ant to
depend on me to be ready to
help you at any time.
I sincerely hope that you will
not try and prevent this step I
am taking, as it is in your power
* to do, as 1 will not acquiesce
without a struggle.
I will write you in a day or
two and I will give my address
, on arriving at the tow’n I men
tioned. I am going to join for
ship service, but am going in
' for air.
Your loving son, ERIC.
Say so-long to everybody.
Mr. Taylor said ne feared bad com
panionship was responsible for his
son’s trouble. He said he had taken ;
the boy on a number of business j
trips with him, to teach him sales-1
manship, and had taught him also j
to play pool with him in the eve- |
nings. Returning to Minneapolis, I
he said he had selected a pool room !
and made a special request that his [
eon might play there occasionally, j
although a minor.
“It seems I unwittingly picked a j
bad place,” said the father. “In this
pool room, I understand, the boy fell
in with gamblers who taught him
things besides pool.”
Wanted to Join Air Service
Mr. Taylor added that his son and
Eric May seemed to have become
fascinated by the idea of joining the
aerial division of the navy service;
had started for San Francisco, and,
on reaching St. Louis, had decided
to go to Florida instead, possibly to
try to enlist at one of the aerial
Stations in that state.
The “hunger strike” on which
tjrdung Taylor embarked Sunday.
W'hen he said he couldn’t “go” the
food supplied him at police head
quarters, was effectively broken ■
Tuesday morning when Mrs. Taylor
produced a box of Minneapolis
“Cookies” and other home-cooked !
delicacies. Stuart promptly demon
strated that his fast was not a mat
ter of principle, and enjoyed a square
meal. May also came in for a share,
and both boys announced that they
felt much improved afterward, and
that the world looked brighter.
Reports from Minneapolis and St.
Paul indicate that the operations of
the mysterious “handkerchief ban
dits” were amazingly bold and at
the same time crude. It is said
they were always together, "a tall
one and a short one:” th j never lost
their nerve—on occasions they closed
stores and lined up the employes and ;
patrons, or made them lie face down I
on the floor —they robbed motoristsl
and pedestrians; decoyed taxicab!
drivers to lonely spots and robbed i
them, and “stuck up” drug stores,
groceries and laundries with perfect I
impartiality. In one night they are !
charged with seven robberies.
The departure of May and Taylor
is said by the Minneapolis police to
have been coincidental with a cessa
tion of the “handkerchief holdups,”
but both the boys deny strenuously I
any connection with any such opera- i
tions in their home city,

| CITY DETECTIVES
! ARE INDICTED ON
LIQUOR CHARGE
City Detectives Alonzo G. Terry
and Oscar M. Howell and Clarence
Hart, of the Corinthian apartments,
were indicted by the Fulton county
grand jury Tuesday on a charge of
violating the state prohibition law.
The action of the grand jury fol
lowed an investigation conducted by
Solicitor General John A. Boykin of
testimony introduced in a recent trial
of Henry Reed, an alleged notorious
negro bootlegger, who was convicted
and sentenced to from seven to
twelve years for murder.
During the trial, Clarence Hart, a
witness, made a statement in which
he accused City Detectives Terry and
Howell with having conducted a
raid on his automobile and seized ten
cases of bottled in bond liquor, two
cases of which Hart claimed were
turned into the police station and
the other eight disposed of at the in
stigation of the two detectives. De
tective Terry, w’ho appeared as a
witness for Reed, was questioned by
Mr. Boykin relative to the accusation
and he denied the charge. Later he
is said to have gone to the' witness
room and abused Hart for making
the statement, threatening to shoot
him. The two men were separated
by Deputy Sheriff J. Gordon Hardy
and Terry was sentenced to twenty
days in jail for contempt of court.
Judge John D. Humphries, who
imposed the sentence on Terry, or
dered a copy of the record of the
case furnished to the police commis
sion with a request that the board
investigate certain statements made
on the witness stand involving the
detectives.
A meeting of the board of police
commissioners will be held Wednes
day night at which time the two de
tectives will be given a hearing on
the charges made in the indictment
and also at the Reed trial.
The two officers were indicted
jointly with Griff Freeman, it being
claimed by Hart that. Howell and
Terry conspired with Freeman to dis
pose of the eight cases of liquor.
Hart also was indicted with Dick
Messer and F. M. Corley on charges
of violating the state prohibition
law.

PEACE fl IMO
SOUGHT BI BRITISH
HOUSE OFCOMMONS
Former Premier Asquith
Scores Reprisals of Irish.
Two Are Killed in Cork
Bomb Explosion
LONDON, Nov. 24.—Steps for the
immediate establishment of peace in
j Ireland were urged in the house of
commons Wednesday by formerjPre
mier Asquith, supported by labor
members.
tlohn Clynes and Arthur Hender
son joined Asquith in a motion con
demning outrages and police repris
als in Ireland. The motion opened
debate on the entire Irish situation.
Asquith opened the discussion and
Premier Lolyd George was expected
to follow.
H. H. Asquith, former premier
and leader of the opposition in
the house of commons, was pre
pared Wednesday to move a res
olution condemning outrages against
crown forces and civilians in
Ireland. The resolution he had
written expressed abhorrence of the
brutal assassination of officers in
Dublin last Sunday, deplored and
condemned the action of the Irish
executive department in attempting
to suppress crime by methods of ter
rorism in reprisals Involving the lives
and property of innocent persons, and
declared the urgency of taking im
mediate steps to bring about the
pacification which is demanded in
the interests of Ireland and the em
pire.
The government has indicated there
is no objection to debate on the sub
ject, but fear was expressed Wed
nesday that further excitqd scenes
might develop during the discussion.
The debate on Irish affairs was fixed
for Tuesday, but it was postponed
because of the disorder on Monday
'during the speech of Joseph Devlin.
It was believed the temper of the
house, after Sunday’s occurrences at
Dublin, was not suited to calm pres
entation of the facts.
Viscount Grey was expected to
come forth from his semi-retirement
and speak in the house of lords on
Wednesday on the Irish home rule
bill. It has reported that Viscount
Grey and Mr. Asquith have reached
an understanding as to policy rela
tive to Ireland and in future will
work together. It is said the govern
ment is rather anxious over the fate
of the home rule bill in the house
of lords, where threats of rather dras
tic amendments have been made. Op
ponents of the government do not
hesitate to attribute anxiety to the
cabinet to get the bill passed at once,
because thereby the 1914 home rule
bill will be automatically repealed.
The opening speech of Lord Birken
head, it is remarked, seemed to re
flect this anxiety.
TWO PERSONS KILLED
BY BOMB EXPLOSION
CORK. Nov. 24f—Two persons in

in Patrick street Tuesday evening
died later at a hospital, and two oth
ers are reported to be in a critical
condition. Sixteen persons were in
jured by the bomb.
SINN FEIN PLOTS ARE
REPORTED IN ENGLAND
LONDON. Nov. 24.—Extension of

It was declared the secret service

criminating documents were said to
have been obtained in many raids in
southern Ireland.

I THANKSGIVING PUZZLE
WHICH IS THE TURKEY GOBBLER?
a s ? / / M
On Thanksgiving Day
The South Is Facing
An Era of Prosperity
Thanksgiving day comes this year at the close of a period
of strain and stress that has challenged the patience and courage
and faith of America.
Particularly heavy has been the burden which the passing
aftermath of war and destruction allotted to the great army of
producers whose labor makes the fabric of the nation.
Yet, if only by comparison, there is much to be thankful
for today.
Three years ago today, this country’s people knew that an
immediate and undetermined future would bring misery and
death to thousands of America’s finest young manhood.
Two years ago today, when the thunder of the guns had so
lately hushed, the world faced an era ominous with uncharted
dangers and disasters.
One year ago today, with inflated prosperity and unchecked
extravagance near their peak, the doldrums of depression were
not far ahead, even if unseen.
Today, the wisest of minds that study and direct and share
in the nation’s business, foresee, safe, sane and certain good times
just around the corner.
The pendulum, accelerated by a cataclysm, has swung back
and forth through an arc measured by abnormal limits at either
end, say the keenest thinkers of America.
From now oM it will oscillate with a stability that means
steady, healthy progress and properity, they maintain.
Why not be thankful.
Thanksgiving day in 1920 may not be a time for feeling
grateful for the recent past.
But it is assuredly and emphatically a season for rejoicing
over a brightened future. ’ ’

Petitions of Latvia, Lithu

of Baltic Row
GENEVA, Nov. 24. —Immediate ad
mission of Austria and Bulgaria was
recommended to the League of Na
tions assembly today by the commis
sion on membership.
The commission reached favorable
decisions on the former enemies of
the allies, but withheld recommenda
tions for a number of small Euro
pean states until conditions are sta
bilized and recognition has been ac
corded by nearby powers.
Those states favored for member
ship in today’s report are Austria,
Bulgaria, Finland, Albania and Lux
embourg.
The petitions of Latvia, Lithuania,
Ukrainia and Esthonia were held
over. Affairs in the Baltic region
are too chaotic to permit favorable
action now, the commission decided.
France Not Ready to Disarm
Speaking before the sixth commis
sion, Leon Bourgeois, France, de
clared France cannot disarm until
Germany has been compelled to ful
fill all conditions of the Versailles
treaty. Germany, he admitted, has
begun disarmament, but has not com
pleted It.
Before disarming, France will
await the report of a military com
mission which will meet in Geneva
to prepare a disarmament plan, he
said.
This plan will take into considera
tion the geographical and special con
ditions in each country, Mr. Bour
geois said.
In order to emphasize the interna
tional character of the -military ex
pedition to oversee the Vilna plebis
cite. the league council has Invited
the Scandinavian countries to send
small detachments of gendarmes.
Germany has forced her way into
the league discussions. The whole

In an interview today Millen de
clared:
“It was necessary to call a show

“Berlin was inspired by two mo

0. S. AGENTS 1
TRIILMRMERS
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—Declar
ing he understood “that federal
agents are already going over Kan
sas, lowa and other states trying to
get evidence necessary to the indict
ment of men who are asking farmers
to hold their crops,” Charles S. Bar
rett, president of the National Farm
ers’ union, through a statement is
sued today appealed to members of
his organization to stand together
and not sell their productions at
present “runiously low prices.”
“Show that you have the moral
courage to go to jail if necessary,”
Mr. Barrett advised members of the
farmers’ union. “The word semes
to have been passed around that
farmers were to be taught a lesson—
they were getting troublesome.”
The farmers answer to claims of
over-production, Mr. Barrett said,
should be: "We will simply lessen
production." This was “no idle
threat,” he said, adding: "From ev
ery part of the country comes the
promise that this policy should be
adhered to until the country wakes
up to the fact that it must either go
on short rations or pay you wages
high enough to live on.”
Efforts of the farmers toward co
operation, Mr. Barrett said, have
met with strong opposition from the
first. He charged that “deliberate
efforts” had been made to prevent
them from buying collectively.
“For seven long, weary years,”
the farmers’ union president added,
‘‘the farmers of this country had
placed over them a secretary of ag
riculture not in real sympathy wtih.
and with understanding of the
needs of agriculture, and who now
as secretary of another department,
is being used apparently as a will
ing and eager tool to enforce defla
tion of farm products.”
Mr. Barrett’s appeal further stat
ed that the only course left to the
farmers was to help one another and
!by raising siTfficient money to fi
nance more adequately “our business
undertakings so that we can hold
and market farm products ourselves
in a business "like, orderly fashion.”

The commission invaded the bat

Amid that rattle and clatter he
commissioners talked first with the
Lithuarrias. Taking turns they
pleaded that the league’s request for
an armistice be heeded. Then they
threatened punishment by the
league.
Later reports from Vilna were con
flicting; Armistice plans were said
to be progressing. It was also stated I
that thle fighting continued with nn
abated fury, Zeligowski’s forces
still making progress to the north

p Nine alleged gamblers were in
dicted Tuesday by the Fulton county

o The arrest of four of the men, a
- shake-up in the Atlanta police de

- Solicitor Boykin and Chief of De
tectives Lamar Poole were the most
important developments of the mat-
f ter.
r R. B. Kelley, Lonnie Allen and L.
' P. Cole, all white, and Americus Lee,
colored, were the men arrested. The
;! names of the other five indicted will

t One of the most radical. shake-
ups in the history of the Atlanta po
f lice department and the only faci
n’ dent of its kind to occur In the past
e four years, was Inaugurated Tues-
- day morning, when the officers on
e the morning and day watches were
s transferred to new beats and those

s partners.
The members of the evening watch
9 will be shifted in the same manner
| as soon as Captain AV. F. Terry, com
manding this watch, returns to duty.
Captain Terry has been on sick leave
, for a few days.
The shift made Tuesday morning
■ was by order of Chief James L. Beav

' bling dens were raided by the state
• authorities, resulting in a heated con-
- troversy between the solicitor gen-

I Such a shake-up is made every few
