THOUSANDS AGREE
AS TO THIS
That Black-Draught Is Ex
cellent for Stomach and
Liver Disorders, Hence
Its Great Popularity.
Mississippi Planter’s
Indorsement
Houston, Miss.—Mr. J. A. Trenor,
a well-known planter of this place,
recently related his experience in
using Thedford’s Black-Draught. “I
don’t believe there is a better liver
medicine made,” said Mr. Trenor.
“I use it for headache, stomach dis
orders and torpid liver.
“It is not bad to take, does not
leave a constipated condition, as so
many of the liver pills and medi
cmes do. It does its work and
leaves you feeling like a new per
son.”
Thousands of others have found
Black-Draught as helpful as Mr.
Trenor describes, and a valuable rem
edy for derangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels. It is purely
vegetable, having an active effect
upon the bowels, gently stimulating
the liver, and helping to increase
the flow of bile.
Black-Draught has been found to
assist in the digestion of food, and
relieves constipation in a prompt
and normal way.
On account of Black-Draught’s
long-proved merit and immense pop
ularity, many imitations are being
offered for sale. For your own sat
isfaction it will pay you to Insist
upon the genuine, and be sure the
package bears the name “Thedford’s
Black-Draught.*’

the drug stores of the United States so that the public could
easily obtain this very remarkable tonic, corrective, and blood
maker. Dr. Pierce manufactured this “Discovery” from roots and
barks—a corrective remedy, the ingredients of which nature
had put in the fields and forests, for keeping us healthy. Few
folks or families now living have not at some time or other
used this Golden Medical Discovery for the stomach, liver and
heart. Evidence of the wonderful sale of this medicine is
recorded in the books’- of Dr. Pierce’s Laboratory in Buffalo,
N. Y., showing that over twenty-four million bottles of this tonic
and blood remedy have been sold in this country. No one can
fight the battles of life and hold his own if his blood is not pure.
No one suffers from colds, “flu” and catarrh who has plenty of
red corpuscles and a good digestion. As cell-nutrition depends
upon the blood, impurities in the blood, together with a low
ered bodily resistance, cause catarrh. Introduce pure red blood
into the svstem, and health is assured.
Dr. Pierce auvises you, it-you wish to avoid the many germ

Golden Medical Discovery in tablet or liquid form at all drug
stores, or send 10c for a trial package to Dr. Pierce’s Labora

EARLY REDUCTION
IN FEDERAL TAXES
IS NOT PROBABLE
The Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building,
BY TEEODOEE TILLER
WASHINGTON. Nov. 26.—80th in
dustries and individuals in all prob
ability will continue to pay for the
next year the income, excess profits
and stamp taxes levied upon them
by the current war revenue bill, and
they need look forward to no imme
diate revision of taxation and the
tariff.
Eventually, the Republican con
gress plans to get around to taxation
and the tariff. Leaders of the party
now returning to Washington, how
ever, do not see how anything worth
while can be done at the short ses
sion, nor do they anticipate that
there will be any new tax and tariff
legislation until late in the extra ses
sion which President Harding will
call.
The situation is one which con
cerns and Interests all industrial
communities, as well as the indi
vidual income taxpayer and the fel
low who pays an indirect tax
through the high cost of living. It
is pretty well established that Presi
dent Harding will call congress into
extra session Monday, March 4. This
will give but a ten days’ rest be
tween the regular and the new ses-,
sions.
The senate is expected immediately
to undertake a program for the res
toration of peace. The house, which
will be tied up on appropriation billS
from December to March, will be en
abled to conduct hearings on and
finally pass measures revising the
tariff and modifying the war reve
nue bill. All this, nevertheless, will
take time. It will take considerable
time in the senate, that talkative
body which always spends weeks de
bating anything connected with tax
levies.
Altogether, the outlook does not
promise tax revision before late next
summer. There is just a prospect
of repeal of the so-called taxes in
the revenue bill, but even this is
doubtful. It is rather to be expected
that for some months to come busi
ness men, farmers, salaried men and
others will continue to pay taxes at
the present rates, including the more '
vexatious levies, such as the stamp 1
taxes on promissory notes, the war
tax on theater tickets and the smallet
levies one runs against at the sod:
fountains or perfumery counters.

Contention That England
Would Rule League JVith
Her Six Hotes Is Exploded
GENEVA, Switzerland, Nov. 26.
No steam-roller of big nations is go
ing to run roughshod over this world
parliament—the assembly of the
League of Nations. And—
The United States senate conten
tion that Great Britain and her do
minions with six votes would rule the
assembly is exploded
These outstanding conclusions are
apparent bn the face of develop
ments to date in the first assembly
session.
The most sensational development
of the meeting so far has been the
firm seizure of power by Latin-
America.
The power shown by Latin-Ameri
can nations, in addition to exploding
the six-votes-for-Britain bogey, also
has raised this vital question:
Is France going to be able to dom
inate the league assembly through
support of the Latin nations of
South and Central America?
American Nations Powerful
Latin-America has taken the lion’s
share of jobs. This block consists
of nine South American and foui-
Central American states together
with Cuba, Haiti and Panama.
These sixteen Latin-American re
publics, shepherded by the A. B. C.
powers and Spain, elected an Argen
tine delegate and a Brazilian as two
of the six vice presidents of th£ as
sembly. In the committee elections
they landed one Chilean chairman
and three Latin-American vice chair
men.
Significantly, the Chilean heads the
committee dealing with the admis
sion of new nations to the league.
Chili is regarded as anything but
anti-German. And Pueyreddon, the
Argentine delegate, has already made
a powerful speech virtually demand
ing that all nations be Invited into
the league. »
France bitterly opposes German’s
admission and is actively canvassing
the Latin-Americans for support.
Failing in al! else, the French rely on
the fiery eloquence of Viviani. They
know a brilliant speech will often
sway Latins more than logic. They
hope to bring the Latin-Americans
to the French view.
The nations still tend to group ac
cording to common language and to
racial and economic interests. The
British empire with six votes ranks
a noor second to the Latins. France
relies on the support of Belgium and
Poland. The Slavs of central Eu
rope probably will vote together.
The Danes, Norwegians and Swedes
held conferences and got Branting.
of Sweden, elected chairman of the
committee on mandates and arma
ments. ..
Great Bays for Idttle Nations
It has been a great- session for tne
little nations to date.
And it has been a remarkable ses
sion, so far, in the independence and
’iberality of several ungagged world
leaders —three in particular, Lord
Robert Cecil, Tittoni and Branting.
Lord Robert has been the great
est single liberalizing influence.
This tall, lean,, stoop-shouldered
Englishman probably e*xceeds all
Other delegates in passionate belief
in the efficacy of the league. His
plan was largely used in the draft
ing of the Covenant’ at Paris. He
was not sent by England, but by
South Africa, through the influence
nf General Smuts, a great liberal
pnd a staunch league supporter.

TAMEAWILDCAT
Mr. Dodson Warns Against
Use of Treacherous, Dan
gerous Calomel
Calomel salivates! It’s mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
in:.o it, causing cramping rind nausea.
if you feel bilious, headachy, con
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s IJter Tone for a few cents,
which is a harmless vegetable substi
tute for dangerous calomel. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn’t start your
liver and straighten you up better
and quicker than nasty calomel and
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 Salivate you. while if
you take Dodson's Diver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play,
it’s harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it.— (Advt.)

Azerbaijan for membership. Cecil
fought the gag and not only won,
but forced a ruling that qvery dele
gate has the right to propose any
question whatever, leaving to the
assembly the decision as to wheth
er it shall be taken up.
Under this rule any delegate could
propose admission of Germany and
Persia could bring up the question
of her status with England, which
is virtually running the country.
The Chinese could bring up Shan
tung and Manchurian questions
without notice and appeal to the
assembly for action.
Cecil’s Tight for Publicity
Cecil also made the fight for open
committee sessions, passionately
pointing out that the league could
exist only so long as it had the opin
ion of the world behind it. The
only way, he said, to obtain the
backing of world opinion was by
taking the world into its confidence,
and getting rid of secret diplomacy. |
He forced from the French group;
a concession that the committees '
must all keep miriutes that would
be published.
Tittoni, of Italy, and Branting, of
Sweden, fought for and won rulings
to safeguard the full rights of the
majority—which means, broadly, the
right of full expression by small
nations as well as powers.
Tittoni’s fight increased and made
more democratic the election of com
mittee officers, and Branting back
ed up this fight with a victory for
the secret ballot on all votes on in
dividuals, which guards against any
possible intimidation.
Briefly, the American hemisphere,
through the Latin-American block,
has shown the greatest single block
of power displayed in the session to
date, and Cecil, Tittoni and Bran
ting have successfully led the fight
for the kind of things the United
States would advocate if a member
of the league.
Carefully Devised Plan
The «Japanese came to this first
session of Laegue of Nations assem
bly with the evident idea of creat
ing a great impression. They have
succeeded, but not in the way that
they hoped.
The impression created is that, of
all the delegations, the Japanese
seems to be under the most general/
suspicion as to its motive. This is'
not because of any action taken up
to now but because of the quite gen
eral fear that the Japs are prepared
to raise very embarrassing questions
which might cause dissension in the
assembly before the assembly is old
enough to absorb any sort of shock.
Exactly what the Japanese are up
to even the best-informed students
of Japanese diplomatic policy are
unable to figure out. But all are
agreed that their attempt to take
and hold the center of the stage at
Geneva is part of a carefully devised
plan, by the Japanese, to accomplish
some selfish purpose.
Japs Storm Geneva
It is estimated that the Japanese
have two or three times as many
people here as has any other nation.
In addition to the three delegates
who sit in the assembly they have
dozens of mjnor officials and news
paper correspondents from every sec
tion of Japan. Os course everv one
of the latter is under direct 'influ
ence of his government and part of
the general Japanese plan, what
ever it may be.
Japanese are everywhere, in fact
they have quite taken possession of
the city.
Besides the hotel wr.ich they en
tirely occupy as their general head
quarters, every other hotel accommo
dates a number of them.
Every budding that houses a Japa
nese displays a Japanese flag, al
ways the biggest flag on the build
ing.
Automobiles under Japanese char
ter for the deration of the confer
ence, each one flying at least one
Japanese flag, fairly block traffic at
congested points.
One cannot walk a block or step
into a case without meeting one or
a group of correctly dressed sphftix
faced little brown men who have
come half way around the world for
some purpose which obviously can
not be exolained by theii’ desire to
further world peace.
At least, if this is their only pur-'
pose, no one here gives them credit.
Everyone Wonders
One explanation is that their ad
mission to the League of Nations on
i an equality with the white races has
1 gone to their heads and affected
i them in the same way that newly
•gotten riches often affects the white
man.
Another is that by this great dis
play they hope to impress all the
other Asiatic people with their in
tention to dominate the far east.
A more widely held view is that
the Japanese are determined that
nothing shall be done by the assem
bly to force them to comply with
their promise, given at Paris, to give
Shantung back to China, and that if
this question is raised in the as
sembly, rather than have any action
taken, they will try to break up* the
show by introducing the explosive
subject of race equality.
Such measures have eliminated
Denver’s worst road menace. Ev
ery afternoon the planes can be seen
scouting over the hundreds of
smooth concrete boulevards lead
ing from the metropolis of the
Rockies; Into the surrounding moun
tains. One pilot secured 40 convic
tions for speeding within two weeks
and was withdrawn from his "beat”
because automobilists had taken the
hint.
Three planes are engaged in the
work in Denver, and other .cities
are watching the experiment with
a view to similar action in the
spring.
FORMER KAISER
GETS VAST SUM
FROM GERMANY
BY LEOPOLD ALETRINO
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
AMSTERDAM, Holland. Nov. 26.
In connection with the fact that the
former kaiser as king of Prussia
has received from Germany this year
about 5,000,000 pounds sterling
($25,000,000), the writer learns that
the German government has declared
its readiness to get the necessary in
formation for the British ambassa
dor in Berlin who is investigating
the matter.
It is said that in addition to the
sum named the former kaiser re
ceived 40,000,000 (normally $10,000,-
000) which he realized from the sale
of a piece of ground in Wilhelm
strasse, Berlin. Part of this sum
was used in the purchase of the
house in Doorn. In August, 1919,
802,600 pounds sterling ($4,013,000)
was paid by the former kaiser for
the furnishing of his new home.
The Berlin government explains
that the excessive allowance made
to the exiled kaiser was due to the
fact that his sojourn in Count Ben
tinck’s castle at Amerongen cost
1,000 guilders ($400) a day. It is un
derstood that the Prussian diet in
tends to draw up a plan for a more
economical allowance. It is also in
vestigating the question of smug
gling the Hohenzollern family for
tune into Holland by German bank
ers in Amsterdam. This has been the
subject of an interpellation in the
reichstag.
Clarence Adams
Gets Life * Term
For Killing Wife
FORSITH, Ga., Nov. 26.—Clarence
Adams, charged w’ith murdering his
wife at the Ensign Cotton Mills here
a few months ago, was found guilty
late Tuesday night. The jury recom
mended the mercy of the court, and
Judge Searcy at once sentenced Ad
ams to a life- term in the peniten
tiary.
Adams is a youth of nineteen
years. The state contended that he
killed his wife because she refused
co live with him in Macon. The kill
ing occurred at the home of the
girl’s mother here. There were no
eye-witnesses to the murder, and Ad
ams in his statement to the jury
claimed that the killing was acci
dental. That he was toying with the
revolver while talking to his wife,
and it was accidentally discharged.
The dead girl’s mother testified that
she had never seen Adams mistreat
his wife, but heard him speaking
harshly to her the day before the
crime. Adams was a cotton mill em
ploye. He has a very boyish face
free from traces of a crimnal na
ture. His afther says this is th?
first trouble he has ever had in cow
Adams’ attorneys very probably
will apply for a new trial.

NATIONS BELIEVED
READY TO FORM
NEW ASSOCIATION
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
WASHINGTON. Nov. 26.—The ten
dency of the assembly of the League
of Nations now meeting in Geneva
to postpone consideration of amend
ments to the covenant until after
President Harding shall have been
inaugurated, was received in Wash
ington by friends of Senator Hard
ing as confirmation of their oft
repeated statements that the na
tions of the world always would be
ready to form a new association with
the United' States as an associate
in the enterprise.
Senator Harding’s friends insist
that during the campaign he fre
quently was misrepresented by po
litical opponents on the subject of
the League of Nations. When he
spoke of a new association, the sen
ator meant to be understood as con
veying the idea that he didn’t care
whether the present machinery were
revised and modified or a new insti
tution created, so long as the objec
tionable features of Article X, its
guarantees of terriorial integrity
and implications of military force,
were entirely eliminated.
When he speaks of the league be
ing “dead” or when he refers as he
did at Des Moines last August to
turning his back on obligations, he
means Article X. His friends, there
fore, declare, that in so far as an
international conference has been
brought about by the present league
and negotiation is thus made easier,
no disposition exists to insist upon
a league different in every detail
from the present organization. Nev
ertheless they say that when Mr.
Harding formulates his program, the
changes he will suggest to other
countries will be fundamental and
that they will absolutely alter the
character of ;l the covenant so that
the league will be known as the
Harding league instead of the Wilson
league. •_
Senator Medill McCormick, of Il
linois, wh® has just sailed for Europe,
is one of the so-called irreconcilables
who voted along with Senators Borah
and Johnson against- the treaty with
or without the Lodge reservations.
He said that Europe was ready to
negotiate for a flew understandnig
with the. United States and that he
personally had been assured by per
sons close to foreign governments
of their readiness to, accept the
American program. His visit to
Europe is fully expected to develop
interesting conferences with foreign
statesmen, the substance of which
will be cabled to Senator Harding at
Marion.
Mr. McCormick is in no sense an
official representative of Mr. Harding
but be has apprised Senator Harding
of his plans. The Illinois senator
differs from other members of the
Irreconcilable group In that he sees
the necessity of some sort of worid
associates in which America shall
play a part in her own way.
Incidentally considerable pressure
is being brought to bear upon Presi
dent-elect Harding to persuade him
to move for the revision of the peace
treaty itself. There is no doubt
that if Senator Knox were made sec
retary of state he would endeavor
to separate the peace treaty from
the' world association idea so that
the United States never would be
obliged to participate in the enforce
ment of the treaty. Whether such a
separation will be practicable is a
moot point.
So many compromises were work
ed out in Paris that some of the na
tions which have most at stake
would fear that reopening of one
question would lead to tangled sit
uation on another and thus to politl-,
cal crisis throughout Europe. How
ever, there seems no question that
the proposal will be made complete
ly to divorce the peace treaty from
the new association as the original
round robin presented by the Repub
lican senators/proposed when Presi
dent Wilson made his first trip to
the United States from the peace
conference.
Os course the action of the as
sembly of the League of Nations in
waiting .for proposals from the
United States to change the cove
nant is interpretated here as a par
ticularly graceful move and one that
is apt to put an ever, greater re
sponsibility for early action on Pres
ident-elect Harding.
It is viewed as the first overture
by Europe to Senator Harding and
some of those who know ‘ him best
are convinced he will not lose the op
portunity to make an entirely new
proposal for the preservation of
world peace.
American and English
People Must Rescue
World Asserts Briton
BOSTON, Nov. 26.—James Bryce,
former British ambassador to the
United States, pictured the world at
“the abyss of calamity into which
the war has'plunged.it,” in a letter
to the Colonial society of this city.
The American and English peoples,
he said, are specially called to try
to rescue the world from the danger.
He added that America’s influence is
prized because "she is impartial,
raised above the jealousies and am
bitious that vex this distracted Eu
rope.” '
Lord Bryce wrote to express re
gret at his inability to the
annual meeting of the society, which
this year celebrated the tercentenary
of the landing of the Pilgrims.
“The little band of humble men
who landed on the Plymouth coast
planted among you those principles
of ordered freedom and self-govern
ment which have spread from ocean
to ocean and become a behcon light
to the nations of two world's,” he
wrote. “Your whole history is a wit
ness to their powers. The common
faith of the American and the Eng
lish peoples in those principles—l

More Than 1919
CORDELE, Ga„ Nov. 26—Crisp
county farmers have nearly 1,000
bales of cotton ahead of last year s
total yield in the county. Every in
dication now 4 is that the gain will
reach 2,000 bales, not less than 1,000
.finvwßy.
The November ginners’ report

Heid foTßaising Bills;
Sanity to Be Passed On
ATHENS. Ga., Nov. 26.—H. H.
Brooks, of this city, formerly a Bap
tist preacher, was arrested here Mon
day ‘charged with raising and pass

300 ALLEGED TO
HAVE JOINED IN
IRISH CONSPIRACY
BY WILLIAM H. BRAYDEN
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily Mews
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
DUBLIN, Ireland, Nov. 26.—1 t Is
estimated that at least 300 persons
must have joined in the plot by
which twelve British officers were
assassinated on Sunday morning. Os
actual gunmen there were, according
to the accounts of eyewitnesses,
nearly 100, the others acting as
scouts, facilitating the attacks and
escapes. Entrance into the houses
was nowhere seriously resisted be
cause citizens of Dublin are con
stantly expecting to be raided by the
government or its enemies.
The gunmen’s knowledge of the in
terior of the houses, enabling their
to go straight for their prey, wa?
shown in nearly all cases. At the
hotels they even knew before enter
ing the numbers of their victims’
rooms. The work of sensational nov
elists was outdone by the spectacle
of gold laced hotel porters compelled
tremblingly to escort the assassins
to the rooms they named.
It is the official belief that the
gunmen came, especially to Dublin
for the purpose of killing the offi
cers, and that they were guided by
confederates. But Dublin was al
ready full of suspected men rounded
into it from the provinces by police
pressure and the dread of country
men to harbor them lest their houses
be burned. Dublin is extremely quiet
after Sunday’s events. An animated
controversy is proceeding as to the
action of the armed force tn firing
on the football crowd and killing
twelve spectators. The official alle
gation is that their men were fired
on -first and that they went to the
ground not for reprisals, but to
search for suspects. The Gaelic ath
letic authorities assert that the only
firing was by government men.
The city’s business has proceeded
normally since the killings and the
crowds of shoppers show no diminu
tion.
The moving picture shows were
full Monday night, but the curfew
Ihw compels them and other theaters
to close earlier than usual. After
10 o’clock only soldiers In armored
cars were left on the streets. They
searched suspected houses and ar
rested any one they encountered.
Holders of permits to be abroad are
warned that even they run a serious
risk. Last night before the curfew
hour two men were shot dead on the
street by men in military lorries.
32 Death Sentences
In Army During War;
None Carried Out
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. —Thirty-
two persons in the army were sen
tenced to death by courts-martial
during the last fiscal year, but in no
case was the sentence carried into ex
ecution, says Major General E. H.
Crowder, judge advocate general, in
his annual report made public today.
Twelve of the death sentences were
disapproved, nineteen reduced to im
prisonment ranging from life terms
to five ytars, and one case was pend
ing on review when the report was
compiled.
Only nine of the cases were for
military offenses. Eight were found
guilty of misbehavior in the face of
the enemy, and one was sentenced as
a spy.
Trials for desertion were slightly
less numerous than for the two pre
ceding years, but the comparative
number was larger. Confinement for
life was imposed in forty-two cases,
thirty- one of the sentences being ap
proved, two disapproved, eight' miti
gated* to shorter terms, and one pend
ing awaits final action.
In all. 236 officers were sentenced
to dismissal after court-martial; ot
these, 134 sentences were approved.
The total number of general courts
martial for the more serious offenses
was 6.769. 87.8 per cent convictions
being obtained.
