TTTF ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1915. Tf “Let’s Have Less Talk of Univer sal Peace and More American Manhood,” Says Senator. WASHINGTON, April 25.—"If the Tnited States is affronted somebody f going to pet whipped before any more peace treaties are adopted by the Senate.” This emphatic protest against Sec retary liryan’s plan for universal peace submitted to the Foreign Re lations Committee was made by a prominent member of that committee to-day. He is one of the leading law- , ears in the country, an aggressive American, who believes in being able to compel peace on the part of those who would insult the United States. “tVe have had enough of peace treaties.” this Senator continued. ‘Twenty-six arbitration treaties are m ,tv on the statute books. Secretary Aryan’s scheme includes everything— , v ,. n national honor. Ev(n when that is at stake he asks us to tie ourselves tip to wait a year before we do any thing. Dangers of Plan. “Suppose we were a party to such an absurd agreement and we had Jp.uble with, let us say Mexico. Dur- ,,,, ,he year that trouble would be under inquiry we must sit idly by and unit without even increasing our ar mament. • Suppose, for instance, Japan be lieved she had a grievance against us. While we were maintaining our ex isting military status until the Mex ican problem was solved, what do you suppose Japan would he doing? The United States is now feeling the effect of too hasty treaty action in our controversy with Great Britain. We’ve had enough of peace treaties until there is occasion for more. Men who travel over the world tell p S that the general impression exists that we are a nation of shopkeepers and cowards, afraid to tight lest-we turb business. Is America Cowardly? “is there no longer good red blood in our veins? Have we reached a paint where we can’t say who may , „rl who may not own property in . this country? . , in Mexico the distinction between the F.ngishman and the German and the American is sharply drawn. The American is looked upon as a coward i„ cause his Government does not pro- , t him. Universal peace! Get us hove a little universal American man hood ! ” Water Wagon Wine, in Washington Now, DETROIT CLUB “Georgia Peach” and President Navin Finally Agree on the Terms for Season. DETROIT, MICH., April 25.—Ty Cobb signed a contract for one year with the Detroit baseball club this afternoon. It is said that his .‘••alary is a compromise between the $15,000 demanded and the $9,000 offered him. The report here is that Cobb will be paid $12,500, with bonuses for. ex tra good work. Just what these bonuses are no one can tell, for both Cobb and President Frank Navin re fused to say a word other than that they had reached an agreement and that Ty had affixed his signature to a Detroit contract. President Navin will see to it that Cobb is reinstated by the National Commission. He is now under sus pension because of his failure to re port for the opening game. It is like ly that a fine of $100 will be imposed on him. Cobb announced that he was in fine condition and that he would go out to the park and practice with his team mates this afternoon. “I am perfectly satisfied with my contract.” said Cobb as he came out of Mr. Navin’s office. “But 1 prom ised Air. Navin that I would not give out the amount of my salary.” “The offer I made Cobb this after noon proved satisfactory to him and he signed the contract offered with out a second’s hesitation,” declared the Tiger boss. Mr. Navin announced that he would apply to the National Commission by telegraph asking that Cobb be rein stated. j 30,000 to March in Suffragist Parade | !

WASHINGTON, April 25.—“There are cases where white women are un der negro heads, and it is for this rea son that our great South has only 6 per cent of the Government positions,” said Ernest D. Martin, well-known Missouri lawyer, chairman of the new National Democratic Fair Play Asso ciation. in explaining the organiza tion's objects. “Do you think,” he added, “that a man brought up in the South would work under negro supervision, or that you would want your sister or wife working under a negro?” President Wilson, Cabinet officers and Congressmen have received copies of the association’s platform, which advocates the segregation of white and negro races in .Government de partments.

April 25.—Con gressman Bartholdt, of Missouri, who for years ha? led a campaign to re store the canteen in the army, to-day said that no host, particularly a Sec retary of State, had a right to tell his guests whether they could take a drink. “I deeply regret that the question of whether a man shall tak^a drink of wine with his dinner should have become a State question,” he said, “Mr. Bryan is forcing his personal views on official? whom be is enter taining as Secretary of State. That’s improper. “Dollar diplomacy of the Republi can regime was the target of criti cism, but grape juice diplomacy, I fear, will be much less effective so far as our national prestige is concerned.” Ship Leaves Husband Bride Grows Frantic Absent-Minded Denver Man Is Put Aboard Liner From Tug After Heart-Breaking Chase. NEW YORK, April 25.—When the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, steam ing to-day across the briny deep, pulled out from Hoboken a frarcle woman crowded to the rail, waving her hands and screaming. Two deck stewards restrained her, and while she struggled with them she cried: “Jimmy! Jimmy! Oh, Jimmy!” And on the pier was “Jimmy, Jimmy,” her husband, and he had the passage tickets end all the money. A nice situation for a charming bride. “Jimmy” is James W. Philips, a wealthy mining man of Denver. Col. Mr. Philips is absent-minded. “Stop the ship! Stop the ship!” My wife’s on board” cried the frantic brides groom, who was finally put aboard a tug, and after a heart breaking chase placed aboard the lin er with his bride. ‘Banana Slide’ Here; Latest in Tangoes Tight Yellow Skirt and White Silk Stockings Necessary to Give Peeled Fruit Effect. NEW YORK. April 25.—And now we have in our dancing midst the “banana slide,” introduced in a tango contest of the Ragged Edge Klub by Miss Stella Johnson and Albert Eng lish, both of San Francisco. To do this slide properly the fair dancer must be dressed, as was Miss Johnson, in • a tight-fitting yellow skirt and white stockings. When ever she slips her feet, up goes the yellow covering and out peeps the white silk-incased limbs, giving out the peeled banana effect. The glide brought repeated en cores. LONDON, April 25.—Protection for the cotton trade of Lancaster, by fos tering the supply of cotton indepen dent of America, was the gisT of Chancellor Lloyd George’s argument on introducing In the House of Com- ] 1 mons a resolution permitting the Brit ish Government to guarantee a Sudan ! loan of $15,000,000 for the develop- | ment of cotton growing, along the I Nile. The <’haneellor of the Exchequer remarked that occasional difficulties with regard to supplies of American cotton, arising from the market being cornered and thus causing a short age here despite abundant crops, i made it necessary to foster the growth of cotton where it would be under British control. Egyptian cotton, he claimed, was better from the point of view of the manufacturer because of the quality of the goods obtained from that prod uct, and also better from the point of view of the workman, because it was cleaner and more healthful to work than American cotton. The resolution was adopted with out division. Millions Spent by Europe. With the $15,000,000 Sudan loan, England will hav* spent $17,347,859 in attempts to become independent ot the cotton fields of the Southern Unit ed States. Germany and France com bined have spent about $1,000,000 in the same way, and Russia has pour ed out money like water for irri gation projects in Asiatic possessions, v here cotton is grown. These figures include not only Governmental ex penditures, but also funds raised by spinners. The United States raises something like three-quarters of the world’s cot ton crop The great cloth industries of Europe are absolutely dependent upon the American farmer. A short crop, or manipulation in the futures markets, has made the European manufacturers pay “through the nose” time and again. The attitude of the Southern cotton men in the face of the desperate at tempts to grow ail important quantity of cotton elsewhere is “we should worry.” Causes Only a Smile. Lloyd George’s statement about the superiority of Egyptian cotton is not to be challenged, but it provokes a smile. Egyptian cotton is better—so much better that America itself imports large quantities of it. Egyptian cotton ha? a long, silky staple, from which the finest grades of hosiery are made. Its nearest rival is the sea island cotton of Georgia and the other Atlantic States. It competes with silk, not with other cotton. It is, and always will be, too high grade and too expensive for use in ordinary cloths. With improvement? in mill* machinery, the spinners are striving every year to make the same grades of cloth from shorter and shorter staples, with the consequent economy. American cotton, even at its highest price, is cheaper than Egyptian, for which the demand exceeds the supply. Churchill Robbers Got Martin’s $10,000 Scotland Yard Detectives Hear Mem phis Millionaire Lost That Amount in One Night's Play. LONDON. April 25.—The woman and two men who stole private naval data and *2,500 from Winston Church ill, First Lord of the Admiralty, at Cannes recently, have been trared by Scotland Yard detectives.

IMPORTANT DATE FORCED WILSON TO LEAVE GAME WASHINGTON, April 23.—Presi dent Wilson wrestled with conflicting desires as he watched yesterday’s Boston-Washington baseball game. He went to the contest hoping that i*. would be concluded in time for Him to meet Secretary Bryan at the White House at 5 o’clock for a final confer ence before the latter took a 6:45 train for the Pacific coast. The game was close and exciting and reached its climax as the time approached for the President to leave. Washington had overcome Boston’s lead, tieing the score 2 to 2, and things were breaking well for the Washington team. The President looked at his watch regretfully and told Secretary Tumulty that if his engagement had not been with the Secretary of State he might have been tempted to be a little late.
