EHSIOEOI GUN TRIERS JOKO Ii REIVERS i 2 ■Chief Will Aid Chamber of Commerce Committee to Limit Pistol Sale. PAWNBROKERS' SHOPS WILL BE REGULATED Tl.v •w.iw.ent to restrict .:>■ sale of firearms in Atlanta, urged by the pub lic safety committee of the Chamber of Commerce, was received with wide i favor throughout the city today and | n i l ived the emphatic indorsement of Chief of Police Beaver®. The plan as outlined by the commit | tee will be passed upon by city council. | It will give to Chief Beavers the power jto issue permits tc ail who wish to | purchase revolvers, and no person { without such a prenut will be allowed |to purchase. All dealers will be re ; quire d to report on the sale of firearms and show the permits as issued by the chief of police. Hardware Men Join Crusade Even the hard.e. art dealers, who will be most affected by the limitation im posed upon wouie-oe purchasers, are j enthusiastically in favor of the plan, j Many believe it will materially lessen ! indiscriminate killings in Atlanta. ;. Chief' Beavers declared, his belief that | the move will go a long way toward i redijeiug the number of hoifiiddes. £t | lanta is now fifth in the list of prooii j.nen'i AmeriCfln cities in the number of fhomic ides, and officials generally assert i that something must be done to remedy ; the situation and reduce Atlanta's i bloody and unenviable record. j The chief believes the most feasible ; plan would be the adoption of an ordi { nanqe requiring ail purchasers of pis jtols to present references from a given i number of good citizens, testifying that [the purchaser is peaceable, law abiding land sober. He also urges that the ordi. ! nance go further and specify as one of {the conditions that the pistol must not | be removed from the premises of the { owner. The chief believes this law would fit ir. adrrtirably with the state law, which already prohibits absolutely the carry ing of a concealed pistol, and requires that a special license be obtained from the ordinary before a pistol can even I be carried openly in the hand. Following the disclosure of results of I pistol ‘'toting” in Atlanta and the South, as shown in statistics recently published by The Georgian, which showed that Atlanta was fifth in homi cide rate in the South, the committee of public safety of the Chamber of Com mittee is today in open war on the in discriminate sale of firearms in the city. The city council will be asked to restrict the sale, as The Georgian sug gested, and a resolution to this effect was passed. Chairman J. W. Lowenstein, of the committee, read lette's from five of the leading hardware companies in the city, and of these four were in favor of forbidding the purchase of a pistol un iless the purchaser has a permit from the chief of police. Letters of inquiry were addressed all of them several days ago and the letters were in answer to the inquiry. One concern favored al lowing all firearm traffic except pistols. Final action on the resolution to i council was delayed until the next meeting of the committee, when Chief of Police Beavers will be asked to ap pear before them and explain the best method of restricting the traffic in small firearms. The resolution aims directly at pistols and will not mate rially affect the sale of shotguns and rifles. Pawn Shops Held Responsible. The committee believes that pawn shops are largely responsible for the sale of cheap pistols, placing the dan gerous weapons within the purchasing power of even the poorest negro. The hardware firms also believe this to be true. Secretary Walter G. Cooper read the statistics, similar to those which ap peared recently In The Georgian, show ing that Atlanta stood fifth among the cities of the South with 29.8 homicides per 100,000 of population during 1911. Memphis is first with 63, Charleston has 42, Savannah 37 and Nashville 35. ATLANTA. GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26. 1912 YELLOW JACKETS WIN FROM FLA. 14 TO 6 JACKSONVILLE.

I TREMBLING AT THE HALL AS KEEN AX IMPENDS Closely studying the city's pay roll in his office today, James G. Woodward, mayoralty nominee, declared that the salary budget could be cut several thousand dollars, and that he was go ing to have it cut or let the people know why. “I wonder how many city hall em ployees would quit if their salaries were cut 25 per cent,” he said, as he laughed. He said the $3,000,000 bond issue wae practically spent and that the addi tional help employed to spend thi® money could be dropped. F. A. Quillian, who received $2,000 a yenr as chairman of the bond commission, is now working for nothing. Council has already dis continued his salary. Too Many “Debts” / Have Been Paid. ”1 haven't gone far enough yet to b® able to point specifically where money can be saved,” continued Mr. Wood ward “but too many political debt® have been paid with jobs. If council doesn't remedy the trouble, the peopl® will vote commission government or something equally as radical. Instead of paying political debts, the money i® needed on streets. "The pay roll of the' city has ins creased tremendously since I was mayj or." Jokingly. Mr. Woodward went through some of the departments and pointed out instances where political debts were paid and wnere relatives of, influential politicians had been given office. But be asked that his remark® should not be quoted. “I may find that some that look lik®/ sinecures are very necessary offices,” h® said. “I favor employing every per-1 son for a city job who is needed, t think they ought to get 25 per cent more for the same work than em- > ployees for private concerns, because of the hazards of public office. “But they ought not to receive 50 pet cent more.” Expecting the political ax, many - city hall employees who openly supported Councilman Aldine Chambers for may or are trembling in their shoes. They are exerting every resource to bring influence to bear to stay the wrath of “Uncle Jim.” If any attempt is mad® to disconnect them from the city treas ury there is sure to be a fight. “Outside nf competency, I will reo ognize no title to an office, except elec tion by the people,” Mr. Woodward warned. “Where officials are elected by tho people I have nothing to say< But the people don’t elect the subordi nate employees of departments. They elect a mayor to see to it that the right sort of men are given the places. AuJ I am not going to recognize the vote getting power of men as a requisite t® holding a city job.” When asked what he could do if council refused to sustain him, he said that he would mark out the men from the salary whom he considered un necessary. He said if council refused to back him up he had the alternative of refusing to sign cheeks, for the may or signs all checks. Bitter Clash Seems Inevitable. With the city hall practically solid against Mr. Woodward at the begin ning of the campaign, it is Interesting to watch the change of affiliations. Some of the councilmen voted for him. but a lot more are inclined to support him now. Councilman Chambers and the other members known as the Cham bers faction have held out the oliva branch. But Mr. Woodward has attacked th® crematory contract. He now starts out to thin tiie pay roll. A bitter clash is inevitable. Aiderman A. H. Van Dyke said today that he would support a veto of the mayor if Mr. Woodward vetoed next . year’s payment on the $278,000 garbage J
