Following The Georgian's light
against the attitude of the sinqke coin
misslon and for a continuation of a
vigorous smoke crusadi. the cominis-|
sion yesterday ordered Inspector Paul
McMichael to docket eases in the re-
< order’s court against all violators of

to the inspector that he must make no
cases without instructions from the
■ otntnisalon on each Individual violator
The commission unanimously adopted
it militant attitude against smoke ami
there was no evidence of its former
reactionary attiude.

two notices that they are violating the ;
law and who have uhide no real effort i
to comply with the law. The offenders |
are required to notify the inspector in '

violations and who had not yet notified

tions and prodged w ith prosecutions in
the courts.
Many cases for violations of the
smoke law will be made within the
next few weeks unless there is some
very diligent work on the part of own
ers of steam plants to comply with the
law. * •
Inspector McMichael told the com
mission that the furnaces in many
apartment houses and buildings could
not be made to comply with the law,
and that the only way the owners of
the buildings could live tip to the smoke
ordinance would be to tear out their
old furnaces and build new ones.
The commission instructed the in
spector that he should notify these peo
ple that they must build new furnaces
if their old ones could not bo made to
comply as soon as warm weather comes
again.

Proposed Change in Form of
Government Is Rejected by
Decisive Majority.
SAVANNAH, GA.. Nov. 13.—Savan
nah will have no government by com
mission. The balloting at the polls
yesterday showed that a majority of
the people—certainly a majority of
those who voted in the special election
—are opposed to a change in the form
of city goverijment. Out of a total of
4.507 votes cast, the majority* against
the change'was 1,819. The ballot stood
1,344 for and 3,163 against the new
charter. • '
The' fact that commission form of
government has been defeated will
mean that active work will naw begin
fpr the municipal election in January.
Mayor George W. will be
importuned to stand for re-election.
Captain R. J. Davant will probably op
pose him. Mayor Tiedeman won, out
last time on a campaign promise to
give the people an opportunity to vote
on commission government. The may
or, however, opposed the proposition in
an eleventh hour card on the morning
of the election. A concerted effort will
be made to defeat him.

Servians Occupy
Adriatic Port
BELGRADE. Nov. 13.—A Servian

grade populace.

securing any Adiiatic ports, but the
Servian government is showing by- its
determined attitude that it intends to
carry out its program.
Belief is growing here that Austria’s
aggressive diplomatic protests against
seizure of Adiiatic territory by Servia
was chiefly for effect and that Austria
will be persuaded by the powers to ac
cept the verdict of a council of the
powers as to Servia's territorial expan
sion after the campaign ends.
i Another Servian army is moving to
ward Durazzo and a coalition Mon
tenegrin column is moving southward
