Mr. Price believes that Atla closely interwoven with the pro cultural interests, and will exert more intelligent and thorough un grand divisions of the State's po ral. Mr. Price said: "I And myself much Interested in the fine plans of The Atlanta Geor gian and Hearst’s Sunday American to boost Atlanta's population from its present status to 500.000 In 1920 Scheme Can Be Accomplished. "It is an ambitious scheme, but It can be accomplished, and 1. as t temporary citizen of Atlanta, anywav, » sh to give it my Indorsement and help in so far as I can “As Commissioner of Agriculture. 1 am of the opinion that nothing is so essential to Atlanta's growth and prosperity as a cordial and intelligent understanding of and co-operation with the farmers of the State. "The prosperity of the cities Is un mistakably interwoven with the pros perity of the farmers, and the Capital City of Georgia, and the greatest cl'v in the South, can achieve its 500,90*1 ambition only with the willing at.d cheerful help of the farmers. "If I may he a factor in bringing the city of Atlanta—the capital of th- Statc—Into closer relations with the farmers of the State, if I may be the means of bringing closer relations be tween all the cities and all the farm ers, I shall be very happy, for I will have served the people of Georgia well Georgia is a remarkable State ag riculturally, and If we will but tak advantage of her natural agricultural resources and utilize all of the active agencies which are at work In the State, marvelous changes can be brought about. "Starting at the northern border, the mountain section la peculiarly adapted to live stock, apples, peaches and grapes, as well as mixed farmin'; The middle section produces grains, hays, live stock, fruits, vegetables and ever-present cotton. The southein section is almost like an undiscovered country, for its resources seem to be unlimited. Mixed Farming No Dream. "It is no theory, it is no dream, it it no imagination of the fanciful, to say that the above Is true, for we ha >1 the actual results already accom plished, and by individuals who live on the farm, who have made financial successes of mixed fermtn-. trucffin- r . ewly inaugurated Commissioner mistio, interview in The Sunday movement to make Atlanta a eitv d pledges his cordial support and t department, in bringing this nta's progress and prosperity is gress and prosperity of the agri- all his influence to bring about a derstanding between the two pulation—the urban and the ru- fmlt end nuts, and cattle, hogs, mules and horses have already been pro duced economically in Georgia. "Another fact wrrth emphasizing right now is this; The most pros perous communities ill the State are those where the landowners have limited acreage, on which they main tain a home, in contrast to this, the communities in Georgia which art composed of large plantations are al most invariably In a low state of de velopment. "For these reasons I shall make an extra effort to reach the small farmer In doing this, of course, no man who lives In the country will be over looked. "As to the Georgia Department of Agriculture, It was originally estab lished simply for the inapection f fertilizers As Georgia has grown, however, the department has taken on other activities, and I hope to be ab'e to add to this efficiency by putting cn such bureaus as are necessary for giving effective service to the Georgia farmer. Department Self-Sustaining. "The department is more than self- sustaining. In a way, in that it pays into the Treasury every year $120,000 more than it takes out. This sum is over and above the present expenses of the department. If the Legislature will, as 1 thins it should, give the department a little more necessarv money In one or two directions, its effectiveness will be wonderfully in creased, and still it will more than pav for itself. "I sincerely hop# that Atlanta will he successful In h»r undertaking for 500,000 people by 1020, for I firmly be- liete that this result can be had by bringing about such country develop ment as I have 4 n mind. "It will, therefor- be necessary fos the grt at city of Atlanta to co-operate With all of the active farm agencies in the State which are working fiv rural development, and I believe that Atlanta, as well as all other Georgia cities, will find it advantageous to give me their hesrty co-operation <n my attempt thus to administer the'af fairs of the great department I have the honor to head."

The end of the second week of the booster button contest results in a dilemma. No one girl has a decided lead over the others. Though each mail brings in dozens of votes, they are divided. It is yet impossible to tell which type will adorn the booster buttons. The votes are almost equal ly divided between blondes and bru nettes Nominations still are open, and renders of Hearst’s Sunday American and The Georgian are taking advan tage of this fact. More girls were nominated Saturday than any day since the contest began It is natural, of course, that more votes should have come in. Miss Christine Earnest, No. 32 Ormewood avenue, is a fair nominee of Saturday. She is an unusual type, with dark brown hair and large blue eves. The picture reveals the delicate charm of youth. The opportunity of being the spon sor to the “500.000 Club" which is to boost Atlanta’s population to 500 000 by 1920 is as good as ever.

Dr. J. H. Tappan. of the Immigra tion Service in El Paso, is at Juarez attending the injured man. He is of the opinion that the wounds will prove fatal When F W. Berkshire. Supervising Inspector for the United States Im migrant Service on the border, went to Juarez accompanied by Clarence Gatley. an Inspector in the service, to look after Dixon, they were both ar rested. Late this evening they were turned loose. The Mexican Consul, Miguel Diebold. of this city, has been appealed to by Americans to assist in having Dixon removed to El Paso, where he may be given proper medi cal attention in an effort to save his life. Deaf ears have ben turned to all appeals by the Mexicans. The federals are openly insulting all Americans who cross the border. Late to-night it was learned from the immigration office that the arrest and shooting of Dixon appears to have been a prearranged scheme of the Mexicans. They called the im migration office this afternoon and asked that Dixon be sent to Juarez, that they had some information on the white slave case on which the El Paso authorities had been work ing. A Japanese nurse has been as signed by the federals to attend to Dixon and this has caused much comment here. His room is strongly guarded by federal soldiers. U. S. Must Take Definite Stand cn Huerta’s Status. WASHINGTON. July 26.—The re port of Ambassador Henry Lane Wil son on the situation in Mexico, asked for by the President, was finished this afternoon at 5 o’clock and was sent to the President to-night. The report of Mr. Wilson com prises his views as to an effective remedy for conditions in Mexico, and, substantially, this is that the neu trality laws be enforced strictly and adequately. By that enforcement, he believes, the revolution will disinte grate and peace will be restored. This is the proposition of Ambassador Wilson, originally made to the Taft administration, and which President Taft adopted by sending a division of the army to the frontier. But that the United States must take a firm and decided stand at once developed yesterday at the series of conferences of Secretary Bryan. Am bassador Wilson and his commission er. Mr. Del Valle, and between the Secretary and the Foreign Relations Committee. In addition to the solu tion offered by the Ambassador, this Government has left in its final pol icy the following alternatives: Recognition of the Huerta gov ernment, with the moral support of the United States in restoring order. Recognition of the Sonora rev olutionists, headed by Pesqueira and Mayor Torena, as belligerents, and support for them against the Huerta regime. Intervention, which means war. Mediation, which Ambassador Wilson say$ also means war, as Huerta will not accept any med iation. The conference eliminated Carran za as a factor to be considered. All the reports reaching the State De partment from its confidential sources brand Carranza as an impos sibility for the presidency. Europe Forces Hand. The necessity for this Government to adopt at least a definite policy does not arise from any change of condi tions in Mexico itself. What now is forcing the hand of the United States is the attitude of the European Gov ernments. whose representatives in Mexico recently joined in represen tations against the long continued disorders. The United States is being warned both by its official and by private agents that if this Government lon ger pursues a waiting policy, it toon may be face to face with a break with the world powers on the Mon roe Doctrine. Secretary Bryan, speaking for Pres ident Wilson before the Senate Com mittee on Foreign Relations, to-day asked that nothing be done at present in the way of repealing the neutrality resolutions of March 14, 1912. govern ing the shipment of arms into Mexico. The committee agreed to th# request. G-looms Disappear When You Enter The Bonita Theater. No gloom can stand the fun dispensing Allen and Kenna com pany at the Bonita Theater.

Am bassador Wilson xvill appear before the committee early next week and jive the members at first hand a full report of conditions in Mexico as he understands them. Mr. Bryan said the President wished this done so that the committee might as fully be ad vised as himself about the situation in that republic Mr. Wilson -may be called Tuesday It developed that President Wilson desires to hold the neutrality law as a club over the heads of the warring factions in Mexico. To what extent, or to what practical purpose, he in tended to use it. Secretary Bryan did not volunteer Senator Bacon Ironical. “I decline to express an opinion, as I would not assume that the Ambas sador would give out such an inter view as was telegraphed here or pub lished in the local papers. On the contrary, I assume he did not do so.” Speaking privately, members of the committee xvere unanimously of the opinion that if Mr. Wilson has been correctly quoted he was speaking as a man who knew he would not be re turned to his post. Representative Frank Clark, of Florida, who has pending a resolution to prohibit Japanese colonization in Mexico, said: "Recognition of the Huerta rule in Mexico would be criminal. He is a proven murderer and an assassin Reports that I have received from re liable sources on Mexican affairs con vince me that Ambassador Wilson is wrong in his suggestion that Huerta can establish a stable government in Mexico.” Two Americans Held By Mexican Insurrectos. WASHINGTON.
