Plan to Sprinkle
Streets of City
With Seized Liquor
ALBUQUERQUE. N. M.—Five
hundred gallons of liquor, seized
in raids in New Mexico, will be
used to sprinkle the streets in Al
buquerque, if a celebration being
planned by the state Woman’s
Christian Temperance union is
carried out.
A delegation of women has
asked Captain R. E. Perkins, pro
hibition enforcement officer, for
permission to use the liquor In
this manner. They plan to put the
liquor into a sprinkling wagon.
Captain Perkins has not yet an
nounced his decision.
GERMANY MUST
PAY, DECLARES
PREMIER BRI AND
PARIS, Jan. 18.—France is ready
to support any reasonable project de
signed to bring about a regime of
justice and peace throughout the
world, Aristide Briand, the new pre
mier, declared today in an interview.
This interview, the first given by
Premier Briand since he took the
premiership, was considered espe
cially important in view of the pres
ent agitation for disarmament
The premier, however, indicated
his ministry would be firm in com
pelling Germany to make full repa
ration for war damages.
“I am resolutely pacifist,” he de
clared. “I will support with all my
efforts any organization or project
susceptible of gathering all the good
will of the world so as to establish,
little by little, in a serious and dur
able manner, a regime of peace and
justice between nations.
“It isn’t the people who ignore the
necessary steps who most quickly
reach the goal.”
Mr. Briand then related the hare
and tortoise fable to explain his idea
of attaining a real peace.
“I am not a hare,” he asserted.
No Trace of Worry
The veteran French statesman, sev
eral times premier and accustomed to
the difficulties of forming an ac
ceptable cabinet, received the corre
spondent with no trace of worry over
the problem which will be decided
when the French chamber is to ac
cept or reject his cabinet.
The statment was accepted as part
of the “platform” he was later to
enunciate in presenting his selec
tions to the chamber.
"Two matters will occupy my
mind,” he said in beginning. “These
are disarmament and reparation. ’
He insisted that Germany must be
stripped of al armament to relieve
France of the danger of attack.
“Since the establishment of the
third republic, France has been pa
cific,” he declared.
"We have not provoked war; we
have been subjected to it. The re
gime of armed peace, which was
bound to provoke war, was imposed
by whom? By France? No, but surely
by Germany.
“It was Germany’s kaiser who
constantly menaced us with his dry
powder and his sharpened swords.
“I do not deny the profound polit
ical change which has been effected
in our former enemies. They became
democratic —but no true democrat
can be made in one day. It is nec
essary to educate them and in case
the education should not be complete,
we would face the risk of being led
into militaristic Intrigues.
"France and even the w r hole world
—it is to the latter’s interest —both
must demand Germany’s disarma
ment. Furthermore, if the demo
cratic transformation of the German
people is sincere. I cannot see in
what respect this measure will em
barrass them.”
Germany Must Pay
German aggression, he declared,
had ‘“’devastated seven departments
and destroyed whole cities," an the
“most elementary justice demands
Germany pay at her own expense for
the disasters she caused.”
“We might repeat Attila’s words,
he added, “ ‘ There where the Ger
man sword passed, the grass no long
er grows.” ‘ .
“I’ll try to solve the problem or
reparation in accord with our allies,”
Mr. Briand said, “always taking ac
count of the suggestions and advice
of our American friends.
“I will always be ready to agree
with those suggestions which are dic
tated by the demands of reality and
watchfulness for all contingencies.
This care for the possibilities does
not mean renunciation of ideals bu ;
simply a comprehension of the facts
and circumstances.”

Miss Betty Clarke in work

j n evidence.
Tills is the story of the house that
Betty built—or to be absolutely ac
curate, the old furniture she made
new.
“Betty” is Miss Betty Ross Clarke,
who is as Yankee as her name and
equally provident. She earns her
bread and butter starring in moving
pictures out in California.
Now in California where every
thing is bright and sunny, dingy
things look dingier than ever, so
when Mistress Betty had made a
million, more or less, out of “Brew
ster’s Millions”—enough at least to
build herself a new house—she de
cided the contrast would be too great
if she did not have new furnishings
or the old furniture made new.
Makes Old. Furniture New
The story of Miss Clarke’s furni
ture is worth telling because she did
wonderful things, all herself, with
chairs, tables and bedroom suites
that were scratched and marred with
long use. Yet the furniture Itself
was strong and good.
How many people own things of
that sort? Most everybody! And
what Miss Clarke did anybody can
do.
Take her dining room, for Instance.
This room, like many California
dining rooms, is in reality a sun
porch. Consequently the colors used
Georgia and Florida Tobacco
Growers' Association to
Enter Plea for High Tariff
To secure higher tariff Pates to
protect the cigar tobacco industry of
south Georgia and Florida, a com
mittee from the Florida and Georgia
Tobacco Growers’ association passed
through Atlanta Monday on its way
to Washington to confer with the
ways and means committee of con
gress. The committee is headed by
J. It. McFarlin, of Quincy, Fla., pres
ident of the tobacco growers’ asso
ciation, and E. M. Collins, ofQuincy,
secretary. It Includes W. E. Smith,
of Bainbridge, ‘Ga., M. W. Munroe,
and M. L. Floyd, of Quincy.
The committee will ask congress
for an increase in the tariff on cigar
tobaccos imported through the Dutch
markets. The present tariff is $1.85
per pound, and the proposal of the
Georgia and Florida growers pro
vides for a new tariff of $2.85.
Since the cigar tobacco acreage in
Georgia and FlOx’ida now includes
more than 6.000 acres, representing
an Investment of more than $20,-
000,000, and since the Dutch growers
of Java and Sumatra have substan
tially increased their imports this
year, the southern growers are very
anxious to have a proper protective
tariff. The average imports in Dutch
tobacco has been about 30,000 bales
until 1920, when the imports in
creased to above 45,000 bales, caus
ing a market which, it is claimed,
threatened the American branch of
the industry.
Best in World
The Florida and Georgia Tobacco
Growers’ association is co-operating
with the New England Tobacco Grow
ers’ association in presenting their
case to congress. The best cigar to
bacco in the world is raised in south
ern Georgia and Florida, and in the
New England states, they claim.
These sections supply practically the
whole market for America-raised
cigar tobacco, the south raising ap
proximately one-fourth of the sup
ply. The industry is adjusted to
take care of normal competition with
the Dutch planters of the East In
dies, but the growers believe that
since the Dutch exporters are now
flooding the American market it will
be best for the American growers
to be further protected.
In an interview Monday. E. M. Col
lins, secretary of the Florida and
Georgia Tobacco association, said:
“The cigar tobacco industry in the
south began about 1900, and has
grown to large proportions, and is
still growing. Georgia and Florida
raise enough tobacco annually to
make 2,225,000 cigars, or to manu
fcature one-fourth of all the cigars
manufactured In the country.
“It costs a great deal more for
American growers to produce high
class tobacco, than it does for the
Sumatra and Java planters. 1 They
have coolie labor and unlimited land,
and southern growers must pay for
high labor, and use expensive fer
tilizer. America has a use for the
Dutch tobacco, however, and we don’t
want to prohibit the importation of
it. We want to curb it so as to pro
tect the American market, and to
keep them from dumping their prod
uct on the market.
Ab: armal Co: ’.ition
"This is unfair, and is an abnor
mal condition which hampers the
American market considerably. The
difference in the money exchange
rates between Holland and America
also augments the danger. The
American farmers are seeking pro
tection merely. They are not ask
ing for a raise in tariff nearly as
high as are other producers of Amer
ican goods, who have applie I for pro
tection under the new Republican
tariff laws.
“The Underwood tariff bill of 1913
did not lower the tariff on cigar to-
were soft—tan with a good deal of
yellow In the pigment and a dull
Chinese green.
How It is Done
“The room being mostly windows,”
said Miss Clarke, “the walls were
not much of a problem. I had them
given several coats of the tan. The
woodwork, like all the rest of the
bungalow, was white enamel.”
Then Miss Clarke went on to tell
how she herself painted the furni
ture.
“Happily,” she said, “my old table
and chairs were of the simplest de
sign. First I gave them a ‘priming
coat’ of tan. And I buy only the
very best brushes. Cheap brushes
are hopeless because the paint pulls
the hairs out, and that makes a ter
rible mess.”
Saved Lots of Money
Miss Clarke advises only three
coats of paint “if you use the very
best paint,” she stipulates. This
makes a comparttively short job.
The second coat is the “flat” of the
color desired, and the third an ultra
hard finishing enamel. The stencil
ing is done last, oil paints and stiff
stencil brushes being used. If the
furniture is simply to be outlined,
the contrasting color is built up
from the first coat.
“My house is a dream." declared
Miss Clarke, "if I do say it myself.
I’m proud as Punch over it and I
saved a lot of money.”
bacco, thus showing the attitude of
a Democratic administration toward
the question. They considered the
$1.85 rate necessary. At that time
it was adequate, since th importa
tion of Dutch tobacco then was nor
mal, and the American trade was ad
justed to it.
“During the war, the Importations
slacked up, and the market again
adjusted itself. But after the war,
the Dutch exporters began to dump
a larger quantity on the market, and
another adjustment is vitally neces
sary to the American growers and
merchants.
"The proposed tariff revision will
increase the revenue of the govern
•ment from this source to from about
$12,500,900 to $20,000,000, and we be
lieve will not affect the price of ci
gars. If the increase were applied
directly to the consumer, it would
raise the price only one mill on a
cigar, and this is negligible.
Raised in Two Georgia Counties
“Yet ti would check the flood of
Dutch tobaccos, and assure the south
ern and eastern growers of con
tinued success in their industry.”
The southern cigar tobacco is rais
ed mainly in Grady and Decatur
counties of Georgia, and in Gadsden,
Leon. Jefferson, Madison and Fasco
counties of Florida. The tobacco is
used throughout the country wher
ever cigars are manufactured, and
sells at prices ranging up to $5 per
pound.
Mr. Collins stated that the propos
ed tariff change would not effect the
trade in West Indies tobaccos, but
was calculated mainly to affect the
imports from Amsterdam and Rot
terdam, Holland.
Congressman Charles R. Crisp, of
the Third Georgia district, is oh the
congressional ways and means com
mittee. Other national legislators
who will be asked to assist in pro
moting the tariff change measure in

Chicago Firm Buys
Sailor Who Offered
To Sell Himself
CHICAGO. —Obert Firmin’s of
fer to sell himself “body and
feoul” for one year at $2,500 has
been accepted. The former sailor,
who was forced by poverty and
the necessity of keeping alive a
wife and child to make this plea,
has been employed by a Chicago
heat plant manufacturing com
pany, where he began work in
the shipping department at a sal
ary of S4O a week.
Firmin owes his job to Harry
Hansen, salesman for the com
pany, which is located but a few
steps from the place the sailor
used to call home. Hansen took
up the matter of Firmin’s plight
with the head of his firm, with
the result that a salary agree
ment was made.
“It’s the happiest day of my
life,” said the former sailor when
he had been hired and knew that
his wife and baby would be out of
want.
NAVAL SEAPLANES
FINISH 3,200-MILE
FLIGHT TO CANAL
PANAMA, Jan. 18.—Naval offi
cers here are enthusiastic over the
successful completion of the flight
from San Diego, Cal., to the canal
zone by twelve of the navy F-5-L
seaplanes, which arrived here Satur
day evening. The two remaining
machines of the squadron are ex
pected to arrive here today.
The flight, which covered 3,200
miles and was completed in seven
teen flying days, was marred by one
fafality. Chief Radio Electrician
Cain having been killed at Fonseca
Bay, on the western coast of Central
America, when he was struck by a
propeller of one of the machines.- The
fliers encountered squalls in crossing
the Gulf of Tehuantepec, and we r e
given a severe shaking up.
The flight, which ranks well up
among the longest on record, was
over a course never before traversed
by aircraft and the aviators arived
here with a record of only one forced
landing. The journey was completed
with only three main supply bases.
Starting from San Diego on De
cember 30, the seaplanes made nine
stops —Bartolome Bay, Magdalena
Bay, Banderas Bay, Acapulco, Salina
Cruz, Fonseca Bay, Punta Arenas
Bahia Honda and Panama. Captain
Henry C. Mustin, commanding the
squadron, stated upon his arrival
here that the flight was unique,
since only two days were taken up
with the preparatory work.
“We had good weather throughout
the trip except over the Gulf of Te
huantepec,” lie said. “Squalls there
made me seasick, and I have been
flying all sorts of machines for nine
years without a similar experience.
The only forced landing was in Fon
seca Bay, when a piece of waste pa
per caused the burning out of a mo
tor."
Commander J. H. Towerg, a naval
aviator, who became famdus when
American seaplanes succeeded in
crossing the Atlantic, became ill with
appendicitis on board a supply ship
which did not carry a doctor, and re
ceived medical attention when a sea
plane called by wireless brought a
physician from another vessel.
The jump between Salina Cruz and
Fonseca Bay, nearly 500 miles, was
made by the fourteen machines with
out a stop, and was declared here to
day to be one of the noteworthy fea
tures of the expedition. The delay
of the two machines which did not
arrive with the main squadron was
due, according to Captain Mustin,
to underpower, these planes having
only three Liberty motors each, while
the others carry four.

FAIR DEAL FOR
PORTSOFSOUTH
BY JACK Xr. PATTERSON
MACON, Ga., Jan. 18. —Among
several important resolutions adopt
ed by the Georgia Press association
in midwinter session at the Hotel
Lanier in this city Monday afternoon,
was one refusing a reduction in the
subscription and advertising rates
and in the prices of job printing.
Every member of the association
will be urged through the official
bulletin of the organization to re
spect this d cisipn of the Macon
meeting.
Another resolution adopted by
unanimous vote called upon the in
terstate commerce commission to
deny the petition granting northern
and eastern seaport towns lower
freight rates than Savannah, Bruns
wick, Jacksonville, Charleston and
other southern cities.
Foreign Advertising
Dluring a discussion of “Foreign
Advertising,” the American Press as
sociation was severely criticised by
J. Kelley Simmons, president of the
association; C. D. Rountree, of the
Wrightsville Headlight, vice presi
dent; Miss Emily Woodward, and
others, who stated that the A. P. A.
had resorted to various schemes to
delay the payment of bills after the
money had been collected by the as
sociation from the advertising con
tractors for this purpose.
A resolution was adopted request
ing the executive committee of the
association to select Monday night
before the last Tuesday in June as
teh date for assembling in Washing
ton in annual session. It was also
v.oted to e itend the session another
day, which will give three instead
of two days for the transaction of
business. From Washington, the
press party will go to Savannah and
Tybee for a dip in the surf.

Color of Gift Necktie
Slows Up This Romance
For Forty Long Years
SHELBYVILLE, Dela.—The hue of
a necktie given by Miss Charity Tim
mons to John Emmons in Bishop
ville, Dela., caused their marriage to
be postponed for forty years, but
they were married last week.
Forty years ago, twenty-year-old
John Emmons went courting his
sweetheart, Miss Timmons. One day
Miss Timmons planned a surprise.
She made a necktie as a gift for
her admirer.
That evening when Emmons went
home he tried the tie on before his
mirror. He disliked it and put the
tie in a drawer and wore another.
The next evening he made his
daily call on his sweetheart. Miss
Timmons noted her gallant was not
wearing her gift. When she asked
the reason she was told:
“It is too loud.”
“Do you mean to say you will
never wear it? Then you don’t love
me,” sobbed the girl, and she went
into her home.
His romance wrecked, Emmons
went to Portland, Ore., and went into
business. He prospered and is now
the owner of a big department store.
Last Christmas he returned to his
home town for a visit.
There he met his old sweetheart,
and talking over things, it' devel
oped that neither had evr married.
Again, as he had done forty years
before, Emmons proposed marriage.
Miss Timmons did not refuse him,
but she did not accept immediately.
But she bought a tie as nearly like
the one that started the trouble as
she could find.

Claims He Paid Prohi
Agents for Protection
SAVANNAH, Ga.. Jan. 18.—Ivy
Kassel, whose home was raided last
Friday night by federal agents and
a still found and destroyed, makes
the charge that he has been paying
federal prohibition officers for pro
tection in order lo engage in the
liquor business with impunity. An
investigation has been started by
Assistant U. S. District Attorney
Turner here.
Kassell says he has been living in
Savannah for 27 years and “what I
don’t know about the liquor business
isn’t worth knowing.” He said 75
men in Savannah who are engaged
in the same business will back up his
statement. He says he hasn’t been
given a “square deal,” as he had
paid for protection and didn’t get it.
Therefore, he has told his story to
the assistant district attorney. He
says: “I am not going to suffer and
let them go scott-free. I paid for
protection and if they accepted my
money, I was due to get it.”
Similar reports of “paying for pro
tection” have been received from
Bryan county.

THURSDAY, JANUABY 20, 1921.
NEW YORK. —The excitement in
Greenwich, Conn., started by a one
armed paperhanger, who got out of
Sing Sing with information concern
ing $50,000 worth of gold buried in
Bruce Park, is at fever heat. Citizens
not ordinarily credulous, admit the
possibility of convict treasures be
ing hidden near the rock specified in
the letter left by Edward Something
or Other, a life termer, who died of
consumption in the prison. The pa
perhanger, who startled the town
with his storv was released from
prison in April last. He was sent up
for having twice as many wives as
he had arms. He told Prosecutor
Walsh that he was Morris Lipschitz
of No. 92 Pitt Street, New York.
It has been determined that what
ever treasure may be found will be
come the property of the city, since
it is buried in earth that belongs to
Greenwich, and for that reason some
of the incentive for digging has been
removed. All sides of the rock that
Edward’s directions lead to have
been spaded up. Officials are posi
tive that it is buried somewhere. The
treasure story is very much like
Stevenson’s “Treasure Island,” in
that the treasure seeker in this mod
ern yarn has lost an arm, while
Long John Silver of whom Stevenson
wrote, had lost a leg. The story, as
narrated, follows:
“Several months ago. a one-armed
paperhanger and painter, just re
leased from Sing Sing, came to
Greenwich and sought out Newton
S. Johnson, first selectman of Green
wich, who by virtue of office, is cus
todian of the property of the town.
The painter asked for a permit to
dig a trench in the park, and per
mission was denied him. Later he
came again, and was again denied.
He was persistent and last Wednes
day, accompanied by a New York
attorney and Mr. Johnson, he went
out to the park. He and the attor
orney began to dig. and were imme
diately placed under arrest by two
officers who had been stationed
nearby,
"The paperhanger was taken to
the office of City Attorney Walsh
and put through the ‘third degree.’
The story he told was that he had
found a note left by the deceased
convict—Edward —on a rafter in
Sing Sing. It told of $50,090 hidden
by Edward after he had taken it from
an Alaskan miner four years ago.
The directions in the note were clear,
and he tried to follow them.
“The painter is now in jail in
Greenwich, and Police Chief Talbott
and Selectman Johnson intend to
find the treasure if they have to dig
up the park.”
Whether the man is still in jail is
a matter of doubt. The Greenwich
police would give out no informa
tion although it was learned that
Chief Talbott had gone to Sing Sing
to learn whether the mysterious Ed
ward was an honest man, and to get
information about the one-armed
man.
68 Passengers Cremated
COPENHAGEN, Jan. 18.—Sixty
eight passengers on a Russian rail
way train running from Luga, on the
Gulf of Finland, to Novogorod,
southeast of Petrograd, were burned
to death when a quantity of benzine
being carried as freight exploded and
wrecked the train, says a Helsing
fors dispatch to the Berlingske
Tidende today. The train caught
fire from the flaming fluid.
“Snowball” Causes
SIOO,OOO Fire
GALESBURG, Ill.—The Trio
block, owned by A. W. Berggren,
was the scene of a one hundred
thousand dollar fire this week.
Tom Snowball, an employe of the
city waterworks, had lighted a
match to look at his watch. He
turned over and went to sleep.
He awoke in a smoke-filled room,
saved his lift, but lost his clothes.
Gift for European Tots
Accompanied by Poem
That Tells of Sacrifice
A few days ago The Journal re
ceived a donation to the fund for
starving European. children from
Mrs. Herndon, a widow dependent
on herself for her support, who
gave "tithing money" from the slend
er income derived from sewing and
keeping boarders.
In this connection. The Journal
has received $5 for the fund, accom
panied by the following poem which
speaks for itself:
“What one woman can do
Another has done.
Mrs. Herndon is sixty,
I am seventy-one.
I, too, am a widow
And living alone,
Husband and family
All are gone.
I am only a seamstress
At work by the day
Am helping two mothers
Keep the wolf away.
Am supporting two babies
That are left to mourn
The children of two soldiers
Both American born.
“This is 'movie money*
For all of this year
I can’t see the pictures
While starvation is near.
One ‘five’ has gone over
Please send this one along
Let ‘helping the babies’
Be America’s new song."
N. B.—Mr. Editor:
“You had better print this
Might help the fund grow
Some other old ladies
Might hunt up the dough.’ ”
