TARIFF REFORMS WILL CUT COST OF LIVING BY JULY 1, 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 general 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 slates, 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 perini.-sion from the house for the waysand means com mittee to hold tariff hearings through out the session and after It. And th, tariff bills, which will be made up sep arately, will be published and dissemi nated throughout tin country Tho interested will !>.• given full hearings before the < ommittee And as soon a the extra ov* dun the Democratic 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. Underwood to Lead Tariff Moves. "Mr. Underwood w ill 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 there, un less his record on the lumber tariff 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 now making an investigation. It is in evitable. and great necessity, that the Democrats darry 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. lam especially interest ed in this matter, as I introduced the first hill 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 tills work.” HE CAN'T GeTmARRIED; WIFE WON’T PERMiT HIM NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—Frank B.

REDDING, CAL., Nov. 9.—Armed posses today are searching through the mountains north of here for two train robbers who rifled the registered mail aboard the north-bound Shasta limited on the Southern Pacific railway last night. The third robber was shot and killed by’ Brakeman Tom Sanford. The holdup occurred at Delta, 35 miles north of here. The heavy train had stopped for water before the climb up the grade toward the California- Oregon line. While ft was standing, tw’o men crawled into the mail car and a third boarded the tender of the en gine. A hundred yards beyond the tank the engine exploded a torpedo that the highwaymen had placed on the rail. The train came to a stop and one of the robbers climbed over the tender and covered Engineer Henry Wentz with a revolver. Sanford was the first of the crew to realize what had happened. He ran back to a saloon that stood near the track at Delta and borrowed a re volver. Then running along the train, keeping well in the shadows, he saw the robber in the engine cab and fired, The. bandit fell to the ground dead. The other robbers, hearing the shot, jumped from the mail car. They carried the registered mail with them. News of the robbery was sent out and the sheriff hastily formed a posse and started in pursuit. It is believed that the robbers will try to make th. ir way either northwa'd to the Oregon line, or into the rough, timbered and unsettled country lying between the railroad line and the coast. Oregon authorities have been warned to look out for them. / HIGH MASON TO ATTEND.

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 years, 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 ti the extension of time, and has many more who are figuring on enlistment. The new army order requires that en listments shall be for seven years, in stead of three, but only three or foui years actually must be served, and the rest of th< time be taken on furlough at the discretion of the individual. A man who enlists can serve three years ami 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 w ith the army to Insure a considerable military force at all times, rather than that the army should dwindle as it hat 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 w hether 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 after they -had hud three months of it. Then the officials put the term of service back to three years, and it li.is been there ever since until the present change.” 3
