My attention
an article in »
in which an interview with m
make* it appear that I was ;,t *
tacking Mr. (Mark Howell person
ally and his policy with The Con
stitution.
1 only repeated the ionv« r ntion
1 had with him on the next day
after lie returned from Panama
on about March 1. this year.
1 meant, no reflection on Mr.
Howell, but only had reference to
certain local reports in his paper,
and he now assures roe that there
was no intention on his part to
discredit the work which 1 have
been trying to do in this city, and
that the article that appeared in
the reportorial columns of The
Constitution was without his
knowledge and consent, and that
It was not his intention nor does
he approve of anything that
would in the leant hinder or dis
credit the work that the police
department has hen trying to
carry out.
I would regret very much In
deed to have any utterance of
mine construed into an attack up
on Mr. Howell, whom I have al
ways regarded, now esteem,
as an exemplary citizen and jour
nalist who holds the merited
confidence of the public, as he
does of my department and of
myself
J. L. BEAVERS.
Chief of Police.
In reference to Chief Beavers*
statement Mr. Howell said:
"During my absence tn Panama in
January a police raid was made ort
a certain downtown rooming hotel.
The Constitution next morning lo
cally reported the affair and the fact
that a man and his wife we’re sub
jected to undue treatment, with com
ment from the inadvertent victims
and the manager of the hotel.
"When I returned from Panama the
Chief complained of the local report
referred to. I explained to him that
nothing was further from our inten
tion than lo discredit his work, and
that following The Constitution's oft -
repeated commendation of his high
sense of duty in endeavoring to en
force the law, he would have our cor
dial support to that end.
"He thanked me. recalling the fact
that two dnys after the houses were
closed I had sent for him to tell him
that his attitude would have The Con
stitution’s support
Next morning September 26 The
Constitutionls leading editorial. A
Wholesome Example' unqualifiedly
approved the Chief as 'an official with
the nerve ami ih-- courage to enforce
the law.' stating that 'he lias set a
singularly wholesome example of a
blunt Interpretation of duty.’
"I am still of the opinion that no
good citizen ■would invite the return
of the segregated district, nor the
spread of Its attendant evil In other
directions. In my talk with the Chief
I exp'eased my doubt as to his ability
to absolutely eliminate the evil, and
while the segregated district has been
closed we are still wrestling with
other phases of the problem.
"I think the Chief is doing the best
he ran. and he liould have the sup
port of all good citizens In his ef
forts.'

Slaughter house conditions are in a
deplorable state in moat parts of
Georgia.
These are the startling facts re

Veterinarian Peter K Bahnsen, issued
Wednesday.
For the amelioration of these con

appropriation of $30,000. He cites the
conservation of human health as the
absolute and pressing necessity for
the expenditure of this amount.
Losses Are Enormous.
"Our losses from tick infestation."
reads the report, "are under present
conditions in excess of $6,000,000 an

could he stopped In a few years with
a sufficient fund to employ cattle in
spectors, and by appealing to the
counties and the Federal Government
for increased aid.
"Hog cholera cost the State not
less than $1,000,000 in 1912. or ap
proximated 20 per cent of the total
value of the hogs owned in this
State.
"Tuberculosis is prevalent to a con
siderable extent among the dairy cat

culous cattle is dangerous to man and
the health of our people is In the bal

hand with the limited means avail
able and the public is anxious that
our services along this line, be ex
tended into a State-wide movement.
<)ui greatest need in this matter is
more funds for extending the work.
