Mayor Woodward Believes At
lanta Will Be Able to Give
$75,000 to Fair.
Reports of what the various eity
departments did during 1916 and need
in 1916 Baturday were being compiled
quite generally at the City Hall by
the department heads. Full reports
will be avallable later, but an outline
of several are given herewith,
The report of Comptroller Gold
smith, compiled by his chief clerk,
Graham West, shows that while there
is an apparent deficit of SIOO,OOO in
city revenue, this will be made up
largely by collectable bills and back
taxes. This amount will be shaved
off the various apportionments until
it can be replaced by borrowing from
1917. Mayor Woodward and a num
ber of Counclilmen expressed satis
faction that with its other heavy ob
ligations the, city was able to donate
$75,000 toward the Southeastern Fair.
Collections in 1915 totaled $4,138,267,
not including $617,385 available Jan
uary 1, 1975, as a Comptroller's bal
ance. There was on December 31,
$72.500 in each of four banks-—the
Lowry, Fourth, American and Atlan
ta National—and $167,454 in the city
treasury.
Among the items on the side of lia
bilities was $175,000 for the perpet
ual charter fund, $135,000 toward the
crematory, and $95,000 on sixth in
stallment serial bonds.
City Marshal J. M. Fuller's report
shows a total of $351,107 from street
assessments, licenses and fl fas, which
is 351,965 Dbetter than last year's
$299,132. Mr. Fuller would have
made a better record except for the
fact that the fil fas were not given
him until December 1.
The Plumbing Department report
ed to Sanitary Chief John Jentzen
that 542 surface closets had been
abolished during the year, and it was
raid that a relentiers fight wiill be
waged this year, because many clos
ets yet are in operation, especially In
negro nelghborhoods . |
Building permits showed a gain of
224,808 TI, figures are treated in a
separnge afticle,

ary Department.

When Mr. and Mrs. John Flan
nagan, of Jefferson, Ga., came out of
their hotel Friday to look up and
down Peachtree through the eyes of
honeymooners, an automobile agent
from their home town was waiting
at the door with a handsome silent
“Six,” neat and new. 2
“Have a ride,” he invited,
“Thanks,” answered they.
And they rode and rode and rode,
and then returned.
“Thanks for the ride,” sald the
bride.
“Don’t thank me; thank your dad,”
smiled the agent, as he turned and
left the car; “it's a wedding present
from him.”
Mrs. Flannagan was Miss Kathe
lene Holder, a Georgia belle, the
daughter of John M. Holder, former
Speaker of the Georgia House of Rep
resentatives, and candldate for Con
gress from his district. SBhe was mar
ried to Mr. Flannagan Thursday

Resolution Is Prepared Calling
on President to Tell What
He Is Doing.
By JOMN EDWIN NEVIN,
Staff Correspondent of International
News Service.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.—~With the
submarine controversy with the cen
tral powers considered certain of ear.
ly settlement, President Wilson, ofi
cials said to-day, will take up the
trade blockade of the Allies immedi
ately.
The receipt here of the complets of -
ficial text of the Austrian reply in tha
Ancona case has convinced Secretary
Lansing that the concessions made
are even more far-reaching than the
notes demanded. It was stated oM
cially at the department that the of
ficial text differed very little—and
then only in verblage—with the unof
ficlal versions carried by the press
messages from Vienna.
Austria has accepted in its entirety
the principle that the laws of human
ity, as well as International law, gov
ern in the present war; that all per
sons should have been in places of
safety when the Ancona wes sunk;
that the submarine commander erred
in torpedoing the ship with passengars
still aboard, and that Indemnity shall
be pald for the loss of American
lives.
Germany wil! settle the pending Lu
sitania case within the next week or
two through Ambassador von Bern
storff, and once more the most cordial
relations will be established with the
central powers,
It is expected now that as soon as
the Senate reconvenes next week an
effort will be made to press to passage
the Hoke Smith resolution calling for
an investigation by the Committes on
Forelgn Relations of the British in
terference with American trade te
neutral countries, _
In addition, a resolution ia being
prepared calling upon the President
