SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 30, TO INVESTIGATE MILK NYCOTT City Board Takes Up Inability of Gus Castle to Get Dairy Service. Continued from Page One. Bat lon, of th board of healt .. "I do hot know just bow- tiie city can regu- I iate it. but away will be found.” Dr. Visanska believes Atlanta needs better milk than that now on the mar ket, in spite of the present system of inspections and regulations. He favors the establishment of a "Walker-Gor don” laboratory, similar to those now operated in sixteen Eastern cities, which will furnish milk for infants' use. This milk is prep ire ! to meet certain specifications on a physieian's fir scrtp tion, and can be mane to suit the Indi vidual need of any child. Such a labo- I ratory could bo . stablished by the Chamber of Commerce, the city or by a private firm or corporation. "There is no doubt that some e.etlon | is needed to insure mil e milk for At lanta babies." said Ivaii Allen, one of the eliamb r committee. "Take one ■.• use. for instance, in West Peachtree street last summer. "A home tber. was stricken by ty phoid and four mt:nbti« <.f th> family ( were dangerously ill. one after the . other It required several physicians land trained nurses to save tdei.- lives and tiie cost t" that family was enor mous. The neighborhood blamed bad sewers and everything else, but a pa tient investigation showed that the man who sold that family milk had a severe ease of typhoid in his home, was hliu -vlf suffering from typhoid as lie dellv- I cred tiie milk, and tin milk itself, when • analyzed, was found • eking with ty phoid germs. City inspection had not protected that family." I Another member of the committee pointed out one way to cope with a milkmen's boycott. "Let the names of all dealers com ( bluing in such a movement be made public." he said. "Then let customers refuse to buy from them. A consumers' boycott would break the mi'knien’f I league in 24 hours." f A. 0. GATES FUSILEERS OFFICER. Friends of A. O. Gates are congrat ulating him on his election to (he sec ond lieutenancy i.f the Fulton Fuslleers Mr Gates is a well known young In surance man For some time he has been quarternmsti r sergeant of the I'u slleers. and is an expert rifleman. The company is now perfe-ting plans to at tend the inauguration of President Wil son. WSTMIWi RAPS MIL (ND POWER CO. It Is an Avaricious to Which the City Has Sold Birthright. He Says. I Joel Hurt, president of the Atlanta) Realty Corporation, confhming ills an nouncement that he would build an in dependent power plant to furnish power i to the entire city. If not granted a per - j nrft to erect one for himself, today de nounced the Georgia Railway and Pow- I er Company as an avaricious corpora- I tion, to whom Atlanta had sold its birthright. He declared that present power rates were three rimes as high as they should be, asserting that he cupld furnish pow er for the operation of his new sky scraper at one cent per kilowatt hour, while the power company charged three cents. Mr. Hurt said he was determined to show that he was no bluffer. He de clared that when be owned the car company ten years ago lie had decided that the capital should not be increased more than $2,000,000, believing that the city and the company's employees should shaie in its prosperity. Under the present regime he understood that the total capitalization was well over $80,090,000. Declares He's “No Bluffer.’’ Accrdlng to Mr. Hurt, the Georgia Railway and Power Company paid lawyers SBO,OOO to convince the city that his (Mr. Hurt's’) offer to give the city all profits over six per cent was gold brick. "If the records of this corporation were revealed," said the capitalist, "it would make the most startling expose in the history of the United States. I am no bluffer and I will see this thing through to a finish.” Mr. Hurt said the independent plant he had in mind would be large enough to furnish power to all and that it j would be a real competitor. 3-Cent Car Fares Enough, He Says. He declared that street car fares in ! Atlanta should be three cents and that j the employees of the ear company were i being paid just about halt enough. At i lanta, he said, would have to pay for the enormous capitalization of the Georgia Power Company. Mr, Hurt’s decision and announce ment came as the result of the opposi tion of Preston Arkwright, president of the power company, to a permit which Hurt wanted from the street committee of council to erect and op erate a. $150,090 power plant in connec tion with his $2,000,000 Edgewood ave nue project. Arkwright Objects. Mr. Hurt yesterday asked the streets I committee for a permit to lay conduits | across Edgewood avenue. Exchange | place and Ivy street to connect his va rious buildings with his proposed pri vate K'Wer plant. Mr. Arkwright pro tested that it was illegal to use the streets for private interests, and that if Mr. Hurt were allowed to operate such a system he would be able to take the cream of the electric business with out -being liable for franchise taxes and public utility regulations. “Would you be willing for me to start a public utility plant and get fran chises?" asked Mr. Hurt ”1 would," replied Mr. Arkwright. "I'll do it." said Mr. Hurt. Sees Room For Competitor. The streets committee postponed making a decision on the request of Mr. Hurt until the next meeting. Mr. Hurt said today lie would have some startling evidence to give tiie commit tee nt that meeting. He said a com ; petitlve plant to the Georgia Railway and Power Company was one of the most attractive propositions he knew of in Atlanta. Mr. Arkwright said today that Mr. Hurt had a perfect right to build a prl i vate plant, If he wanted to. He said he did not care to make any further state ment. DEATHS ANdTfUNERAIT Mrs. J. M.

Clay, the silent wife slayer really is A I maniac or whether he merely is acting i the role in a desperate effort to escape ; the- gallows was given new interest to- 1 day when it become known that two mysterious notes had been found in the slayer’s cell, in which he is urged to! "keep it up—you are acting it fine." ! The Identity of the writer is not known to the jailers. Clay recently, in what is thought to • have been a fit of anger, protested : against a cup of cold coffee given him. j this being the only time he has uttered I a word since lie shot his wife to deatli ' on the night of May 12 last. Since the coffee incident he has remained abso lutely- mum, as before. Jail officials and officers interested in the case believe Clay will break his long silence and talk when he mounts the gallows on Friday, December 13, to ex piate his crime. So far no move of any kind has been I made to stay- the execution. TROLLEY COMPANY URGED TO END DELAY OF MARIETTA PAVING I nless Fulton officials can induce the Georgia Railway and Power Company to change its methods in relaying its tracks in that portion of Marietta street which is being regraJed and paved by the county, that thoroughfare will be a morass during tile winter months, ac cording to T. J. Donaldson, county su perintendent of construction. Donaldson told the members of the public works committee of the Fulton commission today that the county's work was being impeded seriously by the attitude of the street car company He said that the company switched its tracks as the work progressed and kept the paving crews delayed. The commitee authorized Commis sioner Anderson to communicate with the Georgia Railway and Power Com pany at once and request that the tracks] be moved at tiie direction of the coun- I ty's engineer and the city's chief of con struction.
