FOB 1921 WAITS
ON BIU PW
The outlining of Georgia’s high
way construction program for the
twelve months beginning July 1,
1921, must wait upon the action of
j congress on the McArthur bill
I which carries the federal aid ap
-1 propriation for good roads, accord
’ ing to a statement issued by the
I state highway department Saturday.
I The department, which directs the
construction of the state, highway
system, asserts that until the Mc
/Arthur measure is acted upon one
way or another, there can be no
definite announcement as to the
forthcoming highway program.
The bill carries an appropriation
of $100,000,000 in federal fun to
1 be distributed among the several
states for use in the co-operative
method of building good roads. As
originally drawn the measure pro
vided $100,000,000 per year for five
years, but amendments have cut it
' down to $100,000,000 for the com
ing fiscal year.
It is apparent, however, that any
definite highway plans in the sev
eral states cannot be perfected un
til assurance is given by the federal
government that aid will be forth
coming. The amohnt of this financial
assistance must aiso be determine"!
beyond shadow of doubt. Thus the
state highway department is hold
ing in abeyance it* program for the
twelve months ensuing after July
1, 1921.
According to its statement, the
highway department is laying par
ticular emphasis on the announce
ment of policy made by W R. Neel,
state highway engineer, at the re
cent meeting of the Georgia State
Automobile association, when Gov
ernor-elect Thomas W. Hardwick
expressed himself as being thor
oughly in accord with the aims,
purposes, methods and policies of
the highway department.
Every effort is being made to
encourage the counties of the state
to co-operate to the fullest extent
in carrying forward the program
of highwav construction under the
federal and state aid system.
The policy enunciated by the de
partment is based on the sound
economic idea that it is better to
have a system ot roads serving the
entire state in reasonable fashion,
rather than a few isolated stretches
of theoretically correct highways
serving only a limited number of
inhabitants. Carrying out this fun
damental principle the department
is operating with a view to put
ting the entire state system in at
least passable condition, removing
road terrors and ironing out the
bad /spots so that the weak links
in tne system are gradually being
strengthened, says the departmental
statement.
“We find ourselves with a sys
tem of 5,000 miles of roads, almost
all of which is to be constructed,
with only a limited amount of
money,” the department declares.
“Our problem is to prepare the en
tire system for continuous use at
as early a date as possible; re
pair the weak links so that traf
fic may not be interrupted. In this
way the increased earning power
of our people will supply the nec
essary funds for the perfection of
the system.
“Our first duty is to operate the
entire system at as early a date
as possible.
“Necessarily, in order to properly
develop a state system of high
ways, there must be a commission
whose sole duty it is to study and
develop the road with which they
are charged by law to lay out, con
struct and maintain for the best
interest of the entire state. It
sometimes happens that the local
county viewpoint differs from the
viewpoint of the commission which
is charged with the duty of per
fecting the state system and which
is devoting its entire thought and
studv to this end. In order to ac
complish the best results for the
general welfare of the entire state,
the commission cannot lose sight
of its duty to the whole people. I:i
order that the work of the commis
sion be successful, it must receive
the backing of public sentiment.’
Fire on Mayflower
Not Fault of Crew
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15. The
board of inquiry which investigated
the fire aboard the president’s yacht
Mayflower on December 28, last,
found that the damage amounted to
$72,000 and that the blaze probably
was caused by defective wiring. Sec
retary Daniels approved the findings
today.
“No responsibility for the fire is
attributed to any officer or member
of the crew,” the board said. The
fire occurred when the yacht was at
the navy yard here and was confined
to officers’ quarters.

Governor Dorsey Says
State Constabulary Is
Needed to Suppress Crime
That the present situation in
Gwinnett, Hall, Milton and other
counties, where it is reported that
negroes are being ordered by night
riders to leave the counties, practi
cally demonstrates the breakdown of
existing machinery for the enforce
ment of the law, was the opinion ex
pressed yesterday by Governor Dor
sey in discussing the reports which
have been made to him.
On Friday afternoon five Gwinnett
county negroes, calling on the gov
ernor at his office in the capltol, in
formed him that night riders had
ordered them to leave the county not
later than Saturday night. They
told him they had done nothing to
give offense to any white citizen,
that they owned their land, worked
hard, attended to their own business
and were never involved in any trou
ble of any kind. They impressed
the governor as being good negroes.
They gave him a notice which, they
said, had been posted on a negro
school house door, warning all ne
groes in Rock Bridge district of
Gwinnett county to leave the county
at once.
Governor Dorsey at once called
Sheriff E. S. Garner, of Gwinnett
county, on long distance telephone.
Failing to get him that way, he sent
a rush telegram directing the sheriff
to organize a posse comitatus at
once, proceed to Rock Bridge district,
and protect the negroes at all costs.
He made it plain to the sheriff that
it was his duty to protect life and
property in that county. He further
directed the sheriff to call him on
long distance telephone to get the
names of the negroes who had come
to see him. He did not put their
names in the telegram for the obvi
ous reason that he wished to protect
them from possible violence.
Governor Dorsey did not receive
a long distance call from Sheriff Gar
ner during Saturday, but Saturday
night at 8 o’clock he received a
telegram advising him that the sher
iff had organized a posse comitatus
and was then leaving for Rock
Bridge district, and would make a
full report of developments by wire
Sunday morning. The governor was
gratified to get this news.
In Hall county ten days ago there
began what seemed to be a general
movement to drive the negroes out
of the northern part of the county.
Families of negroes refugeed to
Gainesville in large numbers, saying
they had been warned to leave. In
Milton county, according to Governor
Dorsey’s information, similar activi
ties by night riders have been under-
Existing Georgia laws for the
maintenance of order and the sup
pression of violence tie the gover
dot’s hands until the local authon
ties officially advise him that they
cannot handle a situation. Then he
is authorized to declare martial law
and send the military forces to take
charge, but not until then. As mat
ters now stand, there is practically
no military force at the S°v er yor s
command, owing to the fact that the
national guard has bene only par
tially reorganized since the war.
Discussing the situation last mgnt,
Governor Dorsey, as stated in the
outset, expressed the opinion that
night riding against negroes, gm
house burning, forcing of negroes
into peonage, and similar violations
of the law, prove the failure of ex
isting machinery for law enforce
m tie further expressed the opinion
that Georgia ought to have a strong,
well organized, well commanded, well
armed and well equipped state con
stabulary, or police force, operating
under the governor’s direction, ready
to be dispatched upon a moment s
notice to any locality where life or
property are being jeopardized, either
through the failure of the local au
thorities to act vigorously, or
through their inability to handle a
It seemed quite likely, from the
governor’s comments, that he would
make this the subject of a leading
recommendation in his message to
the legislature.
LAWLESSNESS RIFE IN
STATE, SAYS ALEXANDER
United States Attorney Hooper
Alexander made public a statement
Saturday night in which he protests
vigorously against the treatment he
says helpless negroes are receiving
in Georgia. It follows:
“What I said in the papers Thurs
day about the mistreatment of
negroes in Georgia was a mild state
ment of the facts. In three sepa
rate matters that have been brought
to my attention since that day, my
complaint has been illustrated and
emphasized. In one of them, greed
for a negro’s labor is charged to
have resulted in a cold blooded ana
most atrocious murder. I do no.
speak of this positively, however,
as yet, because in that particular
case, while I am having a careful
investigation made, the official report
is not yet in hand.
“I wish to call attention, however,
to a complaint made to me yester
day, and the circumstances of it,
and principally in the hope that Pub
licity may prevent a threatened
crime.
“Five negroes, all apparently well
behaved and industrious farmers,
each working his own little farm,
within thirty miles of Atlanta, have
been warned by night riders to leave
the neighborhood. They came to ap
peal to me for protection. They had
been to the governor’s office, but as
he was not in, a secretary referred
them to me. I can. of course, do
nothing. There is no violation of the
federal laws in what is threatened.

and matters which have heretofore
come to my knowledge in the same

his confidence in the success of the
enterprise and voiced the view shared
by other bankers that the institution
will contribute immeasurably to the
improvement of business condition

The international bank, said Presi

Mr. Hecht stopped in Atlanta en

the export bank.
“I expect to bring with me from
New York gratifying and encourag

Farmer’s Wife and
Ex-Soldier Indicted
In Poison Mystery
CHICAGO, Jan. 15.—A package of
rat poison, which Sheriff Len D.
Spaulding, of Bureau county, Illi
nois, is bringing to Chicago, will be
analyzed to determine whether it con
tains poisons similar to those said to
have been found last December in
the viscera of Harry W. Pierson, a
prosperous farmer of Princeton, 111.
The farmer’s wife, Mrs. Selma
Nordstrom Piermon, mother of two
children, and Arthur Shipp, a. return
ed soldier, formerly employed on the
Pierson farm, have been indicted by
the Bureau county grand jury on
charges of murder in connection with
Pierson’s death.
Pierson died eight hours after eat
ing corn flakes for breakfast, it was
said. In a confession State’s Attor
ney Johnson is said to have obtained
from Shipp, the farm hand admitted
that he fell in love with his em

Pierson had carried on a correspond

office.
locality, lead Tne to entertain the be
lief that, in this particular case, the
underlying purpose is to force the
negroes to sell and sacrifice their
little homes.
“I was much mortified in being
compelled to say that it was out of
my power to extend any protection.
But, I was far more deeply mortified
in not being able to answer this ques
tion, which they came back, after
conference, to solemly and serious
ly propound:
“ ‘Well, we have our wives and our
children and our homes there. If
the night riders carry out their
threats and come back to attack us,
what do you advise us to do?’
“As an officer of the United States,
I could not answer that question.
That government cannot legislate in
such cases, and has not attempted to
do so. The offence is against the
laws of the state. I cannot meddle
in it. But, I love my state, and I
am humiliated. As an individual, I
know what I would do. But if I ad
vised these negroes so, I knew the
consequences that would follow to
them, and I was and am humiliated
beyond expression, because I could
do nothing but advise them to go to
the sheriff, and ask propection.
“The people of Georgia have no
conception of the meanness and
cruelty, with which helpless negroes
are being treated. I wish I could
make the state to see and know the
horrible things that are being done,
and which come to my knowledge al
most daily.
“In the name of a just and right

the people of Georgia.”
6 MEN DEFINITELY
PLACED DN CIIIINET
BYPRESIDENT-ELECT
BY ROBERT T. SMALL
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1921.)
MARION, 0., Jan. 15.—Senator
Warren G. Harding has reached a
final decision on six of the ten mem
bers of his cabinet but may not
make any announcements for he
leaves Marion at the end of the week
for Florida. The senator has -ad
rather a turbulent time of it lately
in handling the cabinet situation, but
after sifting the pros and cons his
slate stands thus:
Secretary of itate.—Charles Evans
Hughes, of New York,
Secretary of the treasury—Charles
G. Dawes, o- Illinois.
Attorney general Harry M.
Daugherty, of Ohio.
Postmaster general—Will H- Hays,
of Indiana.
Secretary of agriculture—Henry C.
Wallace, of lowa.
Secretary of war or navy—John
W. Weeks, of Massachusetts.
Some of these appointments ap
peared doubtful a week ago, but aft
er giving full consideration to vari
ous crit' isms which have reached
him, the president-elect has deter
mined to go ahead and name his of
ficial family according to his own
desires. Mr. Harding has not de
cided just where he will place Mr.
Weeks. He has been considered as
especially fitted for the - y port
folio, being a graduate of Annapo
lis, but some of his friends are urg
ing- him as head of the war depart
ment.
Four Vacancies
It will be noted that the slate as
announced above includes no selec
tions for secretary of the interior,
for secretary of labor, for secretary
of commerce, and leaves in doubt
either army or navy portfolio. The
truth of the matter is thaUMr. Har
ding may leave these posts in abey
ance until just before his inaugura
tion. He may want make some
changes or shifts at the last moment
and the four vacant chairs will per
mit him considera v " liberty of ac
tion.
, It can be stated with virtually
Complete authority that Herbert
Hoover definitely has been dropped
from further cabinet consideration.
Mr. Harding has found considerable
opposition to Mr. Hoover among his
senatorial friends. The former food
administrator had been under consid
eration for secretary of labor, but
Senator Harding has decided at last
to give this post to a union labor
man, following in this respect the
course of President Wilson. In
reaching this decision Mr. Harding is
going, against the advice of some of
his well-meaning friends among what
might be called the capitalistic class
who believe the time has come “to
put labor in its place.” Senator Hard
ing within the past week, however,
has shown his regard for labor by
personally joining and taking out a
card in the Typographical union. It
was quite generally thought during
the campaign that Mr. Harding al
ready was a member of the union,
but this was erroneous.
Hold Labor Together
Senator Harding believes that in
stead of trying to tear labor down,
it is imperative at this time that
the hands of the union
leaders be strengthened for tne ever
impending clash with the radicals of
the Bolshevist or Industrial Work
ers of the World type. Senator Hard
ing has been told of the destructive
forces that even now are attempting
to bore from within the various
unions and of the vigilant fight of
the conservatives against the more
Irresponsible elements. So Mr. Hard
ing has felt it far more important
to hold organized labor together at
this time than to accept advice to
the contrary.
One of the most interesting stories
reaching Marion recently from the
east has been to the effect that Judge
Hughes has been waiting to learn
who some of his associates in the
cabinet were to be before finally
giving his decision to serve as sec
retary of state. Mr. Hughes is known
to have had the matter under con
sideration for several weeks, but it
is explained here he merely has been
waiting the formal written tender of
the office by Senator Harding before
giving a formal accentance.
While the stock of A. T. Hert, of
Kentucky, recently took a rise in
cabinet consideration, it is learned
now that, like Mr. Hoover, his name
is not to be included in the official
list. Mr. Hert’s friends have been
very active in his behalf, but in the
class of what might be called pure
ly political appointments, Messrs.
Daugherty, Hays and Weeks had
prior claims to those of Mr. Hert.
Two or three of the men on the
final cabinet slate have been storm
centers recently, but criticism of
them seems but to have strengthened
their position with Mr. Harding. Mr.
Wallace, the lowa editor, has been
assailed with particular bitterness,
but as much of the assault could be
traced directly back to the big Chi
cago packers and the allied packing
interests, it natural 1 was discount
ed. Mr. Wallace has been so
strengthened that he has become one
of the absolute certainties of the
cabinet.
Represent Progressives
Among other things, he represents
the progressive wing of the party
and Mr. Harding has been particu
larly anxious to have such a man in
the cabinet circle.
The recent visit of A. W. Mellon,
prominent Pittsburg banker, to
Marion, gave rise to the report that
he was under consideration for the
treasury portfolio, but inquiries de
velop that this was not the case. Mr.
Dawes for some time has been the
choice of Senator Harding and the
recent prote.t against his appoint
ment by Mayor “Big Bill” Thompson,
of Chicago, had no effect whatever. It
is true enough that Mr. Harding is
under no political or personal obliga
tions to Mr. Dawes b he has a high
regard for Mr. Dawes’ ability as a
banker and a business man. Mr.
Dawes served on General Pershing’s
staff in France and prior to the Chi
cago convention was rather hopeful
that the general might get the Re
publican 1 omination. Mr. Weeks has
not esc ped criticism, but Mr. Har
ding let his critics know rather
plainly recently that nothing they
could say would keep Mr. Weeks out
of the cabinet.

FEDERAL AGENTS
WERE VERY BUSY
IN DECEMBER
Property valued at $153,726.84 was
seized by federal prohibition agents
during the month of December in
the gulf district, embracing Geor
gia, Alabama, Mississippi and Flori
fi?T it is shown by the monthly re
port of Prohibition Director J). J.
Gantt, which was completed Friday.
The prohibition agents and one al
leged moonshiner were killed within
the district during the month and
three men said to be moonshiners
were wounded, the report shows.
Five hundred illicit distilleries
were seized or destroyed, and 43 au
tomobiles, 4 boats, 2 mules and 1,000
pounds of sugar were captured—also
283 persons, it is shown.
"Whisky confiscated during the
month amounted to 3,746 gallons, and
244.017 gallons of beer fell into the
hands of Director Gantt’s agents. A
record number of fermenters —3,206
—were confiscated.
The report set out that 530 prose
cutions for alleged rebellions against
the drouth were recommended during
the month by Director Gantt. It also
show that there were exactly
twice as many arrests in Georgia as
in Alabama, the next highest state.
Os the 43 automobiles seized, 28 car
ried Georgia licenses.
“Conditions are getting better ev
erywhere—even in Savannah,” said
Director Gantt. “And we have al
ready set a new record during the
first fifteen days of the new yeaj-. We
expect 1921 to be a great year for
the enforcement of prohibition in
the southeastern states.”
From July 1 to December 31, 1920,
arrests in liquor cases in the gulf
district totaled 3,191, it was shown
by Director Gantt’s report.

Alleged Badger Game
Operator Is Sentenced
To Serve on Chaingang
“Bill” Morris, alias •‘Bill” Abrams,
was convicted x by a jury in the crim
inal division of the superior court
Friday afternoon of a charge of rob
bery and was sentenced to from five
to ten years on the chaingang.
It was claimed by Thomas E.
Longworth that Morris robbed him of
SSOO last June by using the old
“badger game” method. Longworth
said he called at a rooming house on
West Peachtree street, where he had
been taking his meals, and was talk
ing to Mattie Bell Rogers, supposed
wife of Morris, when the latter en
tered and accused him of Improper
conduct. At the point of a pistol, he
said, he was forced to sign a check
for SSOO and give the money to
Morris.
I nhis statement to the jury, Mor
ris said he had suspected Longworth
of being friendly with his, Morris’
wife, and one night he said he pre
tended he was going away and re
turned to watch the house. A short
time later, he said, Longworth enter
ed the house and, by looking through
the window, Morris said he saw
Longworth kiss Mrs. Morris. He
said he entered through the window
and caught them both in a room to
gether. He denied he had any weapon,
but claimed Longworth pleaded with
hipi not to expose him or have him
arrested. He said he forced Long
worth to leave the house with him,
but denied he made him sign any
check or received any money.
Morris was arrested in Philadelphia
and was brought back to Atlanta sev
eral days ago.
