World’s Fattest
Woman Is Bride
Os Californian
LOS ANGELES. Cal.—The
world’s fattest woman is mar
ried. It happened in Santa Ana.
John H. Hamilton, twenty-seven,
employed by a wholesale machin
ery firm in Log Angeles, Is the
bridegroom. He weighs 155
j pounds.
Six months ago he met and has
since courted Miss Alma Emily
Seim, 27, who tips the scales at
725 pounds. She has summered
at Venice and is now with a
carnival troupe at Anaheim.
They decided to get married
and went to Santa Ana, accom
panied by the bride’s small sis
ter, Mrs. L. C. King, who weights
only 420.
“She's a mighty fine girl, but
don’t ever let her sit on you,”
was the admonition of Justice
Cox to the bridegroom after he
had tied the knot. Mr. Hamilton
retaliated by saying his bride is
just as heavy on the cooking as
she is in weight and he expect
ed a happy married life. They
will reside at 1816-D Trolley
way, Venice.
GREAT COST OF
STATE UPKEEP IS
TOLD GOVERNORS
HARRISBURG, Pa., Dec. 2.—Dis
cussing the subject of state income
and disbursements before the gover
nors’ conference here today. Gover
nor William C. Sproul, of Pennsyl
vania, told of efforts made by fiscal
heads here to raise necessary reve
nues for municipalities, state and
nation, without imposing a burden
upon the state’s industries.
-In Pennsylvania, the governor said,
no direct state tax is levied upon the
property of the people, needed reve
nues being derived from taxes upon
capital stock, securities and the earn
ings of certain classes of corpora
tions, upon inheritances and from
fees and licenses.
All possible efforts, he declared,
should be made to relieve citizens
and industries of burdens made par
ticularly heavy during the last few
years by the expenses of the war.
“We are still nursing our ‘infant
industries’ here," he said, "nor do
we tax our vast mineral products,
the value of which alone amounts
to well on to $2,000,000,000 a year.”
Equal moderation on the part of
the federal government, Governor
Sproul said, was a more difficult
thing to discover.
“There niust be some germ in the
Potomac,” he said, "which makes
our national statesmen forget that
the nation is made up of states; that
those states have functions to per
form • affecting most intimately the
life and welfare of the republic and
that the operations of those activi
ties requires money in generous
quantities.”
Governor Sproul said that the cost
of everything necessary to carry on
state functions had increased so enor
mously in the last few years that
in all but a few states—with Penn
sylvania no exception—deficits and
overdrafts upon appropriations have
had to be permitted to prevent an
actual closing down of the work of
caring for unfortunate and depend
ent wards of the state.”
Incomes and land, he said, should
be subjected to no additional levies,
either by state or nation. The first
of these, he said, were bearing as
heavy a burden as they could well
stand. Modern taxes upon the utili
zation of natural resources, he de
clared, would not be so burdensome,
particularly if states made provision
for making some return to localities
affected, in the way of reconstruc
tion and rehabilitation.
The governor said he esteemed it
a happy sign of the trend of the
times that there was a strong ten
dency everywhere to impose takes in
proportion to the ability of the taxed
to pay, rather than with respect to
the supposed benefits derived from
the government. This, he said, was
indicated by the growing popularity
of various forms of graduated in
come taxation and the gradual get
ting away from poll taxes and the
extremes of the general property tax.
The committee of five did not reach
a decision on the agricultural situa
tion and was unable to report at the
morning session. Governor Bickett,
North Carolina, chairman on the
committee, requested an extension
of time for making its report.
Governor Parker, Louisiana, who
addressed the conference on the
subject of agriculture, and precipi
tated the discussion of the gravity
of the situation, declared before the
session today the only way to deal
with the question is to encourage
the farmers.
Parker said he was in favor of
some sort of rural credits plan that
would enabl efarmers to dispose of
their products in foreign markets,
but he stated he had "little faith” in
the plan of Governor Harding, of
lowa, to form a United States fi
nance corporation similar to the war
finance corporation.
Baron Is Appointed
Dutch Guiana Governor
BY LEOPOLD ALETRIMO
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
AMSTERDAM, Holland, Dec. 2.
Baron Van Heemstra, former burgo
master of Arnhem, has been appoint
ed governor of Surinam, or Dutch
Guiana, on the coast of south Ameri
ca. Hitherto no governor, however
energetic, has been able successful
ly to develop this dependency which
has always been treated somwhat un
fairly by the government at the
Hague. Governor Van Asbeck and
Governor Stall both resigned be
cause they were quite discouraged
at the lack of results.
In a recent speech before the col
onial Institute Governor Van Asbeck
said however, that it would be great
mistake for Holland to sell her West
Indian colonies which had been re
ported to be her intention because it
would be regarded as a proof of
Dutch inefficiency and an act of de
spair. In Surinam he said a sort of
pro-American spirit actually prevail
ed among some of the people. “But,”
added the speaker, “let us not for
get the inferior position of the ne
groes in the United States. Passing
; under the Stars and Stripes would
;not be advantageous to our Surinam
people.”

TARIFF MUST FIT
NEW CONDITIONS,
SAYS UNDERWOOD
The Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
€23 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLEB
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—An exclu
sive survey of the horizon of tariff
revision and a forecast that the next
tariff revision bill will be prepared
only after the greatest care and de
liberation because of world condi
tions, were given to the correspond
ent of The Atlanta Journal today by
Senator Oscar W. Underwood, minorl- ,
ty leader of th© senate and co-author i
of the Underwood-Simmons tariff 1
law. Senator Underwood said the
current law is not applicable in many
fundamentals, because of the after
math of war. No tariff act enacted
before the war, he added, could be
satisfactory and workable today.
Speaking as the leader of the mi- ;
nority, Senator Underwood said he ,
could not prophesy accurately when i
the Republican congress would re- ;
vise the tariff, but id brief his an- 1
alysis of the situation is this: ]
There probably will be no revision
of the tariff until early next fall, re- •
gardless of the amount raised by a
tariff law, whether it be around ?330,-
000,000 annually, which is substan
tially the record to date, or $1,000,-
000,000, as discussed by Senator Cur
tis, the Republican whip.
There is in sight no early reduction
in internal taxation burdens. The
amount raised by a tariff law, Sena
tor Underwood said, even if it fluctu
ates a few hundred millions up or (
down, can have no very appreciable
effect when congress is appropriating
in billions, and not millions, and the I
interest on the national debt alone ,
consumes more than the customs re
ceipts. Furthermore, Senator Under- <
wood does not see how the Repub- ]
licans can raise a billion dollars un- j
der a strictly protective tariff framed
in accordance with the historic Re- ‘
publican policy of protection. Tariff <
rates that go too high, he contends,
shut out importations and reduce
revenues, and a country may not go
beyond a certain point if it seeks I
revenue returns. . f
Mr. Underwood does not think it i
is possible to increase revenues ma- <
terially by imposing rates low t
enough to encourage imports. A i
great deal of money, he suggests, 1
might be raised by proper rates on ]
raw materials which Europe can fur- 1
nish today, although Europe Is un- (
able to furnish the finished products t
The senate minority leader is still
for a tariff for revenue only the t
principle embodied in the bill that (
bears his name. Nevertheless, he ad- t
mits that the next tariff law must (
take into account existing conditions j
in this country and Europe, and It j
probably must contain something o j
protection, something of free trade <
and something of tariff for revenue
° n The thought left by Senator Under
wood as a tariff expert was that the
next congress must go about ta-iff
revision studiously and scientifically,
that the new tariff must be shaped
along scientific and economic Mnes
rather than in furtherance of any po
litical creed, and that an absolutely
new set of conditions W ‘H }> e .J?® 1
by the tariff revisionists of the sixty
seventh congress.
“I cannot prophesy when there will
a now tariff bill, because 1 am one
of the minority.” said Senator Under
wood. "but if the Republican leaders
"■av it will be late next year. I think
they l are right. Os course, the pres
ent’tariff law is not ad t^[® d l^ C enl ’
ditlons of today. No tariff law en ,
acted during peace, seven years or
win °U r rn >
mient large revenue returns to us
se n e d how r a’tariff bill yielding anything
rites that will bring about increased ,
so on? under these after-war condi
ti”JYou will find that some of the
rates in the existing taiiff law are j
virtually inoperative and non pro
ductive I think sone of these rates ]
have become protective &U -because
this was a peace-time tariff meas
ure sinnearly the whole world to
day is trying to recover from a
long war Any tariff measure, no
matter along what Vhe
ed. would be not adaptable m the
same circumstances.
“However, it doesn t make, such a
great deal of diference what we
raise through the customs houses for
the next few years, I mean differ
ence so far as direct taxes are con
cerned. I do not see how tariff re
vision can plav any appreciable part
in reducing internal taxation as
predicted in some quartes. Whether
the tariff revenues fluctuate up or
down, a few hundred million dol
lars is more or less immaterial
when congres is preparing to ap
propriate in billions instead of
millions. The great bulk of the
money for sometime to come, it ap
pears to me, will be raised by in
ternal taxation and not be indirect
taxation at the ports of the coun
try.
“I assume that the party in con
trol of congress will undertake re
vision of the tariff and taxation
laws at the next session. 1 do not
look for any action at the short
session which convenes in less than
a week. Whatever be the policy out
lined by thb majority, however, it
Is plain to everyone that there
should be a more careful considera
tion of world conditions in framing
the next tariff bill, and that we
have entirely unprecedented condi
tions to take into account in shaping
a fiscal policy.”
Senator Underwood said it was
impossible at this juncture to dis
cuss the details of prospective tar
iff revision. It would be futile
should anyone attempt this. he
suggested, prior to an exhaustive
study of affairs in Europe and at
home. Mr. Underwood is still for
a revenue tariff, but he seriously
doubts that any set of rates may
be devised to produce anything like
the one billion dollars suggested.
Tariff revenues in the United States,
he thinks are largely dependent up
on the trend of events in Europe and
the progress or rehabilitation and
resumption of normal industrial ac
tivity in the war centers of the old
world, and this trend must be
watched by Republicans and .Demo
crats alike when they get about a
table to revise the Underwood-Sim
mons tariff law.

“The day is coming when dogs
will have forgotten how to bark.”
So says a noted dog fancier.
"This is being brought about,” he
asserts, "by reason of the fact that
rural districts are getting rid of
dogs, and because city noises are si
lencing canines on the streets.
"The city dog seldom barks. It
has learned that city people don’t
like the noise of the bark, and other
noises so fill the air that a dog can
hardly hear its own bark. This nat
urally tends toward hushing the bark.
The dog of the not distant future
will not bark.”
The expert doesn’t say if the bark
less pup also will be the biteless
hound.

CIVIL WAR NEAR
AS D’ANNUNZIO
DEFIES ITALY
ROME, Dec. 2.—Civil war over
Fiume appeared imminent today.
Bent on enforcing the Rapallo
treaty under which Jugo-Slavia and
Italy determined their boundary
lines, General Caviglia and regular
troops began a blockade of Fiume
yesterday afternoon.
Equally determined on retention
of Fiume and adjacent Dalmatian
territory, the fiery Gabrielle d’An
nunzio declared that if the govern
ment’s acts were to' be considered
an ultimatum, the regency of Quar
nero would consider itself at war
with Italy beginning December 3.
D’Annunzio's passionate oratory
has stirred his legionnaires to a de
termination to die before yielding to
the demands of the government. The
poet himself has spoken of his fate
as assured but one to be met with
high courage.
The government today appeared
inclined to take no harsh action un
til necessary. Despite D’Annunzio’s
rejection of negotiations withdraw
ing from Arhe and Veglia, General
Caviglia hoped an agreement may
r , e AP hed without resort to fighting.
Although this hope prevailed, there

strictions on the armed forces. Sen

CRISIS NOW REGARDED
AS EXTREMELY SERIOUS
BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER
(.Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Lensed Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
ROME, Italy, Dec. 2.—ltalian af
fairs may have entered upon a new
and stern phase if, as is reported,
I rentier Giolitti has ordered the army
to proceed against D’Annunzio in
case he and his legionaries attempt
to hinder the execution of the treaty
of Rapallo. The poet soldier has
publicly announced his intention of
opposing the execution of the treaty
which gives Dalmatia and most of
the islands to the Jugo-Slavs. To the
government’s attempts at persuasion
he has replied with insults. He seems
to welcome a conflict possibly in
volving his own death, declaring in
his latest proclamation that "we who
are about to die salute the Italian
people.” He tells the people to pre
pare themselvs for annexation as “the
orb of victory is about to be struck
down by far aiming treason.”
The treaty of Rapallo gives to
Jugo-Slavia the district of Castua
north of Fiume and also the islands
of Veglia and Arbe, which have been
occupied by D’Annunzio. The Ital
ian government which has been hold
ing them under the terms of the
armistice feels legally bound to turn
them over to the Jugo-Slavs and
this is what D’Annunzio is deter
mined to prevent. Naturally the
newspapers are urging that some
means be found to prevent a “new
Aspramonte” (referring to the de
feat of the Saracens by Charlemagne
near Aspramonte which was made
| the subject of a famous Italian epic
j poem entitled “Aspramonte”) and to
avoid the shedding of blood in any
kind of civil war. Yet unless the
government weakens or D’Annunzio
finds away out worthy of his imag
ination serious things may happen.

and feet protruding from the
top, the rest of the body being
wedged inside.
For an hour the police made

CITIZENS OF HAITI
WANT PROBE OF
MARINE FORCES
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—" Citizens
of Haiti” have protested to Secretary
Daniels against the departure from
their country of the naval board of
Inquiry until additional witnesses
have been heard in the investigation
into the conduct of the marine forces
occupying the island republic.
In announcing receipt of the tele
gram today, Mr. Daniels said he had
no official advices that the board,
which is headed by Rear Admiral
Mayo, wart-time commander of the
Atlantic fleet, had left Haiti. He ad
ded, however, that the navy depart
ment had been informed that the
converted yacht Niagara, on which
the board went to Port-au-Prince,
had gone to Guantanamo en route to
the United States and that he pre
sumed the Mayo board was on the
vessel.
Upon receipt of the telegram, the
naval secretary immediately in
structed Rear Admiral Knapp, who
represents both the state and navy
departments in Haiti, to conduct an
informal hearing at which witnesses
who did not appear before the Mavo
board might testify. Should this tes
timony warrant such action, the sec
retary said he would order the Mayo
board back to Haiti, or convene a
new board.
Mr. Daniels explained that the
Mayo board was not empowered to
inquire into matter relating to di
plomatic and financial affairs in the
island republic and had refused to
hear many witnesses who desired to
testify regarding these matters.
Whether these were the witnesses
the “citizens of Haiti” wished to
have heard was not made clear.
1,142 Haitians Slain
In Two-Year Warfare
On Island Bandits
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, Dec. 2.
(By the Associated Press).—A total
of 1,142 Haitians met death since
the beginning of the intensive cam
paign against the bandits of the is
land approximately two years ago, it
was developed by the naval court
of inquiry during its three weeks
of hearings just concluded here into
the actions of American marines in
Haiti. This total includes the ten
natives alleged to have been killed
by ex-Corporal Freeman Lang and
Sergeant Dorcas Williams.
Outside the ten deaths charged
against Lang and Williams, all the
dead accounted for during the hear
ing fell in the 298 actual battles that
occurred including the attack on
Port-au-Prince in January, accord
ing to the testimony.
Although the court of inquiry nat
urally declined to discuss this
phase, the military authorities insist
that the charges of indiscrimi
nate killing” brought by Major Gen
eral George Barnett, former com
mandant of the United States marine
corps, were not justified. At the end
of the sessions Admiral Henry T.
Mayo, president of the court, in
questioning Lieutenant Colonel
Hooker of the gendarmerie, touched
upon conditions during General Bar
nett’s administration. He developed
testimony that the bandits then un
subdued had murdered about 2,000
peaceful Haitiens and had destroyed
farms and tortured and mutilated
gendarmes anti marines.

BROOKLYN.—On two occasions a
man and woman sat opposite each
other on an elevated train. Both
times she smiled and he smiled back.
And both times, when they got off
the train she disappeared. Then she
turned up at the home of Douglas
Cruickshank and told him: “I am the
woman you flirted with—-and I’m
your wife. I’m the girl you married
in 1906 and then deserted. I’m Mrs.
Elizabeth Day now, but I haven’t for
gotten how you deserted the baby and
me. I’ve been getting a warrant for
your arrest every year since then
and now I’m going to have it served.”
She did, and a judge ordered Cruick
shank to pay her $lO a week as long
as she lived.
2-YEAR BAN ON
IMMIGRATION IS
SOUGHT IN BILL
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—A1l immi
gration would be suspended for two
years by a bill submitted to the
house immigration committee today
by its chairman, Representative Al
bert Johnson, of Washington.
Mr. Johnson, who has been mak
ing a thorough study of the immigra
tion situation for several months, said
that such action is necessary to pre
vent “hordes of foreigners, many of
Whom are undesirable, from entering
the United States.”
Mr. Johnson said he would demand
action on the bill early in the ses
sion of congress which begins next
Monday. The committee met today
to consider the measure and a bill
along this line probably will be re
ported to the house the latter part
of next week. Mr. Johnson said.
The only exceptions to the two-year
restreition proposal are that a nat
uralized alien or one who has de
clared his intention of becoming a
citizen may send for his immediate
relatives.
Protective Tariff on
Farm Products Urged
CFHICAGO, Dec. 2.—A protective
tariff on cotton, rice and wheat was
advocated before the National Asso
ciation of Commissioners, Secretaries
and Representatives of Departments
of Agriculture today by Harry D.
Wilson, of Louisiana, who declared
that although he was a Democrat, he
favored protection for the farmers.
E. T. Meredith, secretary of ag
riculture. and E. W. Davis, president
of the asssociatton, were other speak
ers. Mr. Davis said that a larger
production of food is the only way
to prevent a return to war-time
prices.
“We can have no additional produc
tion, however, if the fruits of farm
labor are to be blasted by falling
markets when the harvest comes,
leaving the farmer less money than
it cost him to raise his crops,” Mr.
Davis said.
“When the farmer’s return is less
than the cost of production, restrict
ed production and high prices fol
low” Thousands of acres of cotton
in Texas are unnicked, he said, be
caus'e it "costs $lO more tn pick and
bundle a bale of cotton in Texas than
the cotton will bring on the market."

NOT WORKING BUT TIRED
OUT
When one feels always tired with
out working, or suffers from back
ache, lumbago., rheumatic pains,
sore muscles or stiff joints it is not
always easy to locate the source of
trouble, but very frequently it can
be traced to overworked, weakened
or diseased kidneys. Mrs. L. Gibson,
12th & Edison St., LaJunta, Colo.,
writes: “My kidneys were giving me
a great deal of trouble for some
time. I took Foley Kidney Pills and
they helped me right away.”
