FIGHT ON SMOKE
BOARD STAYED
BY ACTION
Commission Orders Prosecu
tion of Violators to Proceed,
Rescinding Former Act.
Councilman Charles W. Smith, who
, s been leading the fight to abolish
smoke commission on the grounds
, 1; was blocking the enforcement
smoke ordinance, said today that
would not introduce an ordinance
to wipe the board out if the commission
adhered to the policy adopted yesterday
afternoon.
The commission is now proceeding
~n .orrect lines,” said Councilman
Smith.
-I have prepared two ordinances, one
to abolish the commission and the oth
pr to place the authority to make cases
against violators of the smoke law in
" o hands of the inspector and the
chairman of the commission. I will
hold both of them and watch future de
velopments.
■■l am speaking the sentiment of a
large majority of the city council and
v s 90 per cent of the people of Atlanta
when 1 say the smoke ordinance must
be enforced.”
Following The Georgian’s fight
gainst the attitude of the smoke com
mission and for a continuation of a
vigorous smoke crusade, the commis
sion yesterday ordered Inspector Paul
McMichael to docket cases in the re
corder's court against all violators of
Ihe smoke law who were not making a
sincere effort to comply with the law.
He also was instructed to make new
cases against the violators of the law
who have already been fined in the re
corder’s court if they have not taken
steps to comply with the law within
fifteen days.
The board withdrew its instructions
to the inspector that he must make no
cases without instructions from the
commission on each Individual violator.
The commission unanimously adopted
a militant attitude against smoke and
there was no evidence of its former
reactionary attiude.
The specific instructions to the in
spector were that he must make cases
against offenders who have been given
two notices that they are violating the
law and who have made no real effort
to comply with the law. The offenders
are required to notify the inspector in
writing of their efforts to comply with
the law.
100 Facing Prosecution.
Inspector McMichael said today he
1 ad a list of about 100 owners of steam
plants who had twice, been notified of
violations and who had not yet notified
him of any real effort to comply with
the law. In these cases he was in
structed to make confirmatory’ observa
tions and proceed with 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
«w.
Inspector McMichael told the com
mission that the furnaces in many
ipartment houses and buildings could
not be made to comply with the law,
and that the only way’ the owners of
ihe buildings could live up to the smoke
ordinance would be to tear out their
bld furnaces and build new ones.
The commission Instructed the in
ipector that he should notify’ these peo
ple that they’ must build new furnaces
If their old ones could not be made to
comply as soon as warm weather comes
fcgam.
Chairman Satisfied.
'TiaJrman R. M. Harwell, who re
declared that the commission
Inould be abolished, said today that he
*as satisfied with then we attitude of
the board.
The commission adopted a resolution
U a sub-committee requesting the
.abroad commission to fix a standard

MILLIONAIRE HOBO
PLANS COLLEGE FOR
UNEMPLOYED MEN
ST. LOVIS, Nov. 13.—A hobo college
is the latest plan of James Eads How,
millionaire benefactor of the tramp.
How wants to establish a school where
the "unemployed” in St. Louis may
spend their spare time during the win
ter. They will be afforded a chance to
study the arts and sciences.
"There is a workingman’s college in
England that has been successful,” said
How. "My idea is to establish one here
that will be something similar. Some
of the unemployed who come here are
devotees of literature; others of art.
They should be given a chance.”

One of the Biggest Improvements
of the greatest improvements in the 23 Whitehall street store, and one that will ap
peal to the largest number of patrons, is the Soda Fountain. This is now under our own man
agement. We have installed one of the handsomest fountains in the city and the service will
be incomparable. Jacobs' Ice Creams are made in our own kitehens, from pure, sweet cream

Bon Bon Holder With Block’s Candies
Beal Tll-I’L hand painted Nippon China Bon Bon Holders Free with one pound

Block's 60c Chocolates have become famous—they are equal to any others sold
' elsewhere at 80 cents a pound or more. And Block's new box at 80 cents Is finer
, \than anything else in the city anywhere, at any price. Every piece is a hand
made specialty of nut, fruit or some other fancy and inimitable Block creation.
Not one plain cream center in the box; and In this where it excels. The qual
ity of the chocolates is the same as Block's 60 cent chocolates, for finer quality cannot be made in
candy. But this is a fastidious box to please the most fussy epicure. Try it.
