Dr. Robert E. Speer, of New
York, Chief Speaker at Big
Meeting Tomorrow.
Presbyterians from all the Atlanta
churches and from the towns surround
ing the city will gather at the Audito
rium-Armory tomorrow morning to

one of the greatest religious gatherings
ever known to Atlanta.

city, a noted young religious .speaker,
who is a powerful figure In New York
church circles, will deliver the sermon
of the morning. The program has been
carefully arranged by a committee
headed by John J. Eagan, and in addi

will include line instrumental and vocal
music. The young women from the

TARIFF REFORMS WILL
CUT COST OF LIVING BY
JULY I,SAYS HOWARD
“Tariff legislation will be started by
congress at its short session, which be
gins December 2, and the bills put in
shape for passage at the extra session
to be called for April. And they will be
passed, with a reduction of not less
than 50 per cent on the great staple
commodities. The American people will
profit by a reduced cost of living within
a few months after the Democratic
congress convenes. The reduction will
be actual, definite, easily felt by the
consumers,” said Congressman William
Schley Howard today at his home in
DeKalb county, just outside Atlanta.
He discussed the outlook for national
legislation with more than ordinary en
thusiasm, and declared that the pledges
of the platform would be carried out in
letter and spirit and without delay.
“I believe that an extra session of
congress will be called by President
Wilson for not later than April 16,” he
said. “And this session will reduce- the
tariff not less than 50 per cent on wool,
cotton manufactures, steel, farm imple
ments, meats and sugar.
Sees Rout of Trusts.
“As to trust legislation, I believe
Woodrow Wilson will appoint an attor
ney general who will start and prose
cute to the end an honest, vigorous and
efficient campaign against the trusts,
and jail some of the law-breaking offi
cials who hitherto have escaped. I do
not know who this attorney genera!
will be, but I am willing to underwrite
the guarantee that President Wilson’s
appointee will get results. When Mr.
Wilson said no honest manufacturer
need fear a Democratic administration
it was a warning to the wet-nursed
trusts of the Republican administration
to take to the woods.”
Mr. Howard had gone over The
Georgian’s bulletins and spoke of the
accuracy of its early returns, particu
larly in its declaring the election of a
Democratic senate.
“I am some prophet myself,” he said
with a laugh. “At the Five Points ral
ly Saturday night I predicted Taft
would carry only three states, naming
[Vermont and Utah, and he got only
three. I also declared Wilson would
get the heaviest electoral vote of any
president since the Civil war, and that
was right, too.
“The next session of congress—the
old congress—will convene on Decem
ber 2,” continued Mr. Howard. “Oscar
Underwood will obtain permission from
the house for the ways and means com
mittee to hold tariff hearings through
out the session and after it. And th<
tariff bill.-, which will be made up sep
a atelv. will be published and dissemi
nated throughout the country Those
I interested will oe given full hearings
befo: the lOimnittee. And as soon a
I lie xu.i evsslou llic L'.moc.atti con-
gress—is called, the tariff bills will be
brought up and passed. They will be
sane and reasonable, and they will re
duce the tariff on the commodities I
named not less than 50 per cent. They
should be passed and in effect by the
end of July.
Unde wood to Lead Tariff Moves.
“Mr. Underwood will be the leader of
tariff matters in the house. Senator
Simmons, of North Carolina, may be
chairman of the senate finance com
mittee and handle the tariff ther., un
less his record on the lumber taiff
causes him to be considered Irregular
and of the Bailey type. In that event
the choice would be between Senator
Stone, of Missouri, or John Sharp Wil
liams. of Mississippi, the latter having
had experience on the ways and means
committee of the house. The extra
session will adjourn by August 1.
“As to banking and currency legisla
tion, that will depend largely upon the
findings of the house committee no"
making an investigation. It is in
evitable, and of great necessity, that
the Democrats carry out their pledges
along the lines of reform in banking
and currency legislation.
“The coming congress will carry out
its plank of lending Federal aid to pub
lic highways. I am especially interest
ed in this matter, as I introduced the
first bill In the sixty-second congress
to this end and the house passed an
appropriation of $17,500,000 for this
year, which was defeated in the senate.
It will pass the senate this year, and
Federal highways will be a reality
I Georgia certainly should have her share
of this work.”

THRONGS REVIEW
KIREJME
Dazzling Event, Rivaling Fa
mous Mardi Gras in Bril
liancy, Cheered Loudly.
AU Atlanta greeted the Kirmess last
night because the Kirmess came out to
greet Atlanta with a brilliant street
carnival.
Rivaling the fetes of Mardi Gras, 75C
costumed performers, headed hy a
spit ndid display of the military, laugh
ed and cheered their way through the
down-town streets before the gaze of a
throng of spectators who lined the
streets and sidewalks. All Atlanta gave
itself over to the carnival spirit, and
cheered the Kirmess and its trappings
to the echo.
Headed by a squad of mounted po
lice, the parade left the Auditorium at
7 o'clock and proceeded through Edge
wood avenue to Marietta street. Fol
lowing the police came a battalion of
the Seventeenth infantry, led by the
regimental band. Then came the Fifth
regiment, the Georgia Military academy
cadets and the cadets of Marist college.
Whole Kirmess Company, Too.
Following the militia came the D. O.
K. K. drum corps, heading a contin
gent of Elk- carrying lanterns and illu
minating the streets with red fire. The
Kirmess crowd appeared, led by the
Red Men’s drum corps—Yama Yama
girls. Indians, vestal virgins, Japanese
misses, ballet dancers, Bohemian girls
and little fairies out of the Silver Spray
ballet. Crowded in automobiles and
strewing the streets with confetti and
serpentine, the display got an ovation
from the crowds.
Brigadier General R. K. Evans, com
mander of the Department of the Gulf,
and Adjutant General Ob<'ar, of the
state guard, with their staffs and aids,
togethei with the divisi >n commanders
of the parade, dropped out of the ranks

the column as it p.issi d. After a round
of the down-town streets, the parade
proceeded back to tba- Audi orium in

ND OBJECTION TO.
LONG IRW TERM
Atlanta Recruiting Office Does
Brisk Business Despite the
Seven-Year Rule. t
The United States government’s re
cruiting station on Carnegie way, just
off Forsyth street, is doing a good busi
ness, despite the new army order re
quiring enlistment for seven y«trs,
which went into effect November 1.
Lieutenant James A. Gallogly, of the
Coast Artillery corps, who recently took
charge of the office, has enlisted a
score who have found no objection to
the extension of time, and has many
more who are figuring on enlistment.
Tlie new army order requires that en
listments shall be for seven years, in
stead of three, but only three or four
years actually must be served, and the
rest of the time be taken on furlough,
at the discretion of the Individual. A
man who enlists can serve three years
and be subject to recall for four years,
or he can serve four and go on fur
lough three; or he can re-enlist for
another seven-year term, either at the
end of three, four or seven years. The
idea In the seven-year term is to keep
a sufficient number of men in touch
with tlie army to insure a considerable
military force at all times, rather than
that the army should dwindle as it has
in the past. In twenty years the army
reserves would number 300,000.
The officials at the local recruiting
station believe the new plan is better,
and they expect little objection to it.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles H. Barth,
the new adjutant general of the Depart
ment of the Gulf, also sees Improve
ment.
“I recall a queer system that for
merly was in vogue in the army,” he
declared. “That was about 1890, when
a man could enlist for three years, go on
■ furlough three months and then decide
I whether or not he would serve the other
' two years. The plan worked poorly for
| the government, because the men us
ually wanted to keep on in the civil
life af'er they had had three mon’
of It. Then the officials put"*the te
of service back to three years and it
has t en there ever since until the
pits nt change.”
Colonel Barth belli ves that the air
ship will be practicable in war for
scouting parties, but that it will never
amount to much as a bomb carrier.
“I recall that in the present Turk
ish v ar,” he said, “a Russian aviator
flew over tlie Turks and was shot down
villi shrapnel. They couldn't hit him
with small amis, however.”
