Beavers' Move
Surprise to Jackson.
■| ,:•■ ait of Chief Beavers was as
gloat a surprise to Marion M. Jackson,
head of the Men and Religion Forward
Movement, as to the man on the street.!
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning. Mr. 1
Jackson told a Georgian reporter then
was no indication of early positive re
sults from the campaign waged by the
movement. At 1 o'clock lie was in
formed by The Georgian that Chief
Beavers was on his way to the re
stricted district to dose the houses
The news came to Mr. Jackson as a
complete surprise But he was quick
to act upon the new turn affairs had
taken, and at once began steps to care
for the women driven out of the re
sorts
But Mr Jackson is not satisfied to
let matters stop with this one step
He considers the closing of the houses
but one skirmish in the war against
evil
"It is but a scratch on the surface,
he declared "We must cut deeper to
the very tenter of this earner. The
crusade against vice will sweep th> '
city clean it will eradicate the so
called ‘hotels, where men and women
arc harbored, it will wipe out the
houses of rendezvous and the disrepu

Department Head,After
a Week of Agony, De
cides Action Is His
Dutv and Proceeds
Wi t h Sensational
Move, While Official
Atlanta Stands Silent.
A man in blue uniform stumbled fiom
the private office of Carlos Mason,
chairman of the police commission. A
diamond-studded badge upon his breast
marked him as the chief of the Atlanta
police department. Atlantans have
known him for years as an officer of
indomitable physical courage. Yet. he
was crying like a child: tears streamed,
down his cheeks; his voiec yvas broken
as he etied out:
"I’ve got to do it. I’m going to do it.
I can t help it, even if it costs me my
place. It's the law; it's the right."
The man was James L. Beavers, chief.
He had just reported to his superior,
head of the commission, that, the orders
had gone out for the closing of the ten
derloin. He did not ask permission, did
not desire advice. He had obeyed man
dates higher than the authority of a
police commission— the law and Jjisoivn
conscience. Beavers had proved his
moraj courage as great as his physical
bravery. He was ready to take the
consequences
Chief Through a
Week of Agony.
Chief Beavers had been through a
week of agony He had lain awake
with his conscience. He had seen the
light. He had done his duty. He knew
he would be lauded by many , censured
by many more He could not know
Whether his act was to be yvorldly wise.
Rut he knew it was his duty to himself
and to his oath of office.
For James L. Beavers is not only a
policeman, but a man; not only an of
ficial, but a good citizen, a chtrchgoer,
a man who loves friends ami family
and right living. His record in the po
lice department has been singularly
free from the taipt of partisan politics,
his personal conduct always beyond
reproach.
The system had been there when
Beavers joined the force It had ex
isted though his hpprenticeship. when
he was a captain. It was there when
he became chief of his d partment. It
was recognized, ‘tolerated, t ven com
mended as a lesser evil. Tile city had
wrestled with it under the spur of pop
ular movement.-: grave bodies of wise
men had debated the problem which is»
as old as Babylon and had not agreed.
James Beaters' superiors, the men who
made him chief and who might unmake
him, weie content with conditions as
they existed. They called him chief,
but it had been an unwritten law of the
department that no such step as this
might be undertaken without especial
authority. No chief in Atlanta's his
tory had taken such a burden upon bi
shoulders.
System Tolerated
For Many Years.
I here was the system, and there was
ihe law. For many months James
Beavers had tried, to reconcile the two.
In the midst of his debate with his con
science there began the campaign of
Hie Men and Religion Foryvaid Move
ment. tiie war upon "the houses in our
midst." The committee behind this
movement hammered the fearful truths
of licensed vice into the minds of At
lantans day alter day. And no man
read and listened with more deep
thought than Beavers chief of police.
For four nights James Beavers had
lain sleepless in his little home in Law
ton street. For four day she had paced
the floor of his office in the station
< arm- Mason, head of the commission,
was absent from the city, but it is
doubtful whether the chief would have
consulted him in any case. Reavers
wanted to know what was right; not
merely what might b? expedient. H
considered the question in all its
phases; remembered the half-pledges
of immunity given the women when
they weje moved into the new district
of Manhattan avenue, thought of thei.'
plight when they were driven from
theii lairs, faced the ceitainty that
many of them would scatter into the
residence streets and must be searched
ji’.ut. house by house, and otdered out
i again. He saw all the dreaded conse
quences of the step he contemplated;
liqiiil in advance the censu'e whit i
would come to him from the powers
that rule in politics. But on the other
side he saw two answers inexorable
I The Law and the Right
Thon Beavers acted. He told his see
petaiy to write the order- notifying the
I women of the restricted disi ict that
| they must abandon thei- quarters and
■give up their careers of vice. He Sum
; limned his officers and told them t"
j prepare for a round of the cist'ricl
I Then he Went to the chairman of the
I police commission and announced bis
I act. The commisslone's had announn J
| that Beavers would be chief in fact as
| well as in title, and Beavers had at
i eepted the eha Henge.

YOUTH ADMITS
555,000 THEFT
Clerk Stole Express Package
From Pensacola Bank and
Later Returned Money.
PENSACOLA FLA., Sept. 25.- To
day William H. Bel], a 20-yeai-old
. bank clerk, is held a prisoner follow
ing his confession last night to the
theft of the $55,000 express package
that mysteriously disappeared from the
First National bank a week ago and
was as mysteriously returned on Mon
day. Bell said he confessed for fear
officers would suspect his brother and
cause his at rest.
According to Bell's story, he planned
; several days in advance to steal the
money on the day it was forwarded
witli $20,000 additional to the Louis
ville and Nashville railroad for the
monthly payroll account. He made up
a package of magazine slips of the
; size and shape of the money package,
I wrapping and sealing it in similar man
ner. On the day the money was ready
to go to the express office, he secreted
the $55,000 package in his locker, sub
stituting the bogus package for it.
That night he carried the money from
the bank in a suit ease.
AV hen detectives started an invest!-
! gat ion of the robbery, Beil lost his nerve
and decided to return the loot. He
' placed the package at the rear en
trance of the batik and telephoned the.
' Cashier where to find it. The cashier
paid no attention to the message. Sev
eral hours later the janitor found the
package and delivered it to the bank
officials.
! Bell has been employed at the bank
for two years.
