SENATE PASSES GREAT AVIATION BILL
NASHVILLE WINS FINAIL GAME
Reprisals Adopted by Britain for Raids
WASHINGTON, July 21.—Sen
ate passed $640,000,000 aviation
bill.
WASHINGTON, July 21.—The
Senate this afternoon passed the
food control biil.
The vote was 81 to 6.
Immediately after the passage
of the food control bill the Senate
moved to take up the $640,000,000
aviation bill. Senator Hardwick'
of Georgia, demanded a roll cal
on his amendment to strike out
the provision authorizing the
President to draft men, if neces- |
sary, to recruit the flying corps.
The amendment was Jyofeated, 66
to 12. ‘
(By international News Service.)
WASHINGTON, July 21.—8 y a
vote of 72 to 12, the Senate this |
afternoon accepted the Pomerene ‘
amendment authorizing the Pres- |
ident to take control of coal at }
the mouth of the mines and to di
rect the Federal Trade Commis
sion to fix prices from the pro
ducer to the ultimate consumer.
The amendment takes the con
trol of coal out of the hands of
the food control committee.
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, July 21.—The five
weeks’ fight over the food control
bill, described as the most revolu
tionary in the history of the Ameri
can Congress, drew to a close today
and the measure will come to a vote
before the Senate adjourns tonight.
Indications are that the bill will
be passed in substantially the form
indorsed by the bi-partisan confer
ence of leaders. It will contain some
radical differences from the House
bill, particularly on the prohibition
issue, and considerable time will
elapse before it can be adjusted in
conference. If the bill goes to the
President within two weeks, leaders
will consider that excellent time has
been made.
There is a general understanding
that no attempt is to be made to re
vive the prohibition issue before the
final roll call is taken. Senators have
agreed to allow the question to be
fought out in conference. The main
points of issue between House and
Senate are whether beer and wine
shall be included in the prohibition
and whether the President shall be
directed by the Smoot amendment to
commandeer all spirits in bond.

Carolina, appropriating $10,000,000 to
enable the President to purchase

farmers at cost. The vote waa 60

Officials in Britain
On Shipping Losses
(By International News Service.)
LONDON, July 21.—British of
ficials today laughed to scorn a
report cabled from the United
States that the Allies are losing
1,600,000 tons of shipping monthly |
through submarines and mines. |
“It's laughable, absurd,” de- l
clared Lord Rhondda, of the Brit- |
‘ ish Government,
“Even to say that England alone
1 is losing 600,000 tons monthly is a |
gross exaggeration. The whole |
~ thing s bunkum.” {
| In British official circles the be- |
lief is general that Germany's 3
submarine war has proved a flat |
failure. |

quiet corner where you are offered not only rest, but
food which gives strength to go back again into the noise

(By International News Service.)
COPENHAGEN, July 21.—Disord
ers in Petrograd, mutiny at the front,
and further resignations from the
Russian Cabinet have aroused anew
the anxiety over Russia that was
prevalent before the Russians started
their offensive on the Eastern front.
Official advices from the Russian
capital tell of the mutiny of Russian
regiments on the firing line in Galicia.
Near Brody and Halicz, Russian reg
iments that were holding important
positions, fell back upon the eve of
German attacks, allowing the Teu
tons to carry out successful a,tta,ckl{
and round out their successes.
It is now recognized by a_ large
number of Russian officers that the
plan of ruling the troops by com
mittees is a failure. It has bred in
subordination and if the soldiers
want to disregard commands in a
crisis, they are able to do so with
virtual impunity.
With the crumbling of discipiine,
the iron-drilled soldiers of Germany
have been able to sweep forward into
important Russian positions. The
Germans are delivering heavy at
tacks along the Dvina River, and in
Volhynia violent artillery battles have
developed.
Kerensky is now almost the whole
Government of Russia. In addition
to holding the posts of Minister of
War and Marine, he has succeeded
Prince Lvoff as Premier. Prince
Lvoff has been Premier ever since
the Provisional Government was
formed immediately after the revolu
tion. His resignation adds to the
pessimism felt in neutral countries
over the whole Russian situation.
Many of the followers of Lenine,
the agitator largely responsible for}
the recent rioting in Petrograd, have
been arrested. Evidence has been dis
covered, it was sald today, to show‘
that some of them are German agents
and that they have been receiving
money from Germany by the way of
Stockholm.
A woman named Sumenson, at
‘whose home a number of Leninecites
were hiding, was taken into custody.

ATLANTA, GA., SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1917
(By International News Service.)
LONDON, July 21.—England is
to adopt measures of reprisal for
the murderous German air raids
over this and other British cities,
it was announced in Parliament
today.
For soma time the British peo
ple have been clamoring for re
talintorg air raids over German
cities, Berlin itself if possible.
(By International News Service.)
LONDON, July 21.—Premier Lloyd
George, in a speech in Queenshall this
afternoon, replied to Dr. George
‘Michaells, the German Chancellor, by
saying:
| “Those resronsible for German af
fairs have declared for a continuation
of the war. The junkers have thrown
the former chancellor into the waste
heap. But it will not be long until all
Junkerdom follows him there.”
The Premier reiterated his previous
statement that Belgium must be re
stored, and predicted that if the sub
inarine is not eliminated this war will
be followed by an evan bloodier one.
Premier Lloyd George said that
Germany woi'd be harboring an illu
pion if she believed that England
would quit fighting before her war
aims are attained.
His utterance about the submarine |
situation was not overly optimisti(‘,'
but he added that the menace was'
gradually becoming reduced. |
Michaelis Stands
.
For Spoils of War
(By lntornatiogl News Service.)
AMSTERDAM, July 21.—Although
Chancellor Michaelis falled to state
Germany’s peace terms, the impres
sion was prevalent here today that he
favors only a peace with annexations
and indemnities,
Germany, under the leadership of
Chancellor Michaelis, is apparently
determined upon war aims which
might be summed up in a general way
as follows:
1, An indemnity from England.
2. Annexation of parts of the
ceccupied territory of France and
Belgium.
3. A compact guaranteeing “the ‘
freedom of the seas.” |
4. An extension of Austro-Hun
garian sovereignty along the Adri- |
atic coast. ‘
5. Poland to be an autonomous
state under “German protection.” |
6. Annexation of part of Serbia
by Bulgaria. |
7. Extension of Hungary's bor
ders into Roumania, .
5. A general European commer
cial treaty establishing the “equal
rights of all nations to trade.”
9. A revision of The Hague Con
ventior.
That the new Chancellor I 8 in sym
pathy with the junkers is made pretty
evident from the attitude he adopted
toward the United States. Dr. Mi
chaelis minimized the part that Amer
ica could play in the war, and his ef
forts to make an impression in that
direction were so obvious that the im
pression is gaining ground in Holland
that he haa an ulterior motive in do
ing so.
The new Chancellor is much differ
ent !n appearance from his predeces
gor, Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg. Dr.
von Bethmann-Hollweg was tall and
straight as an arrow, with a long, in
tellectual face. Dr. Michaelis is small
of stature and his head and face are
80 large they seem out of proportion
to the rest of his body. Although the
tenseness of his attitude gives the im
pression of Inward force, the new
Chancellor seldom ralses his voice or
tries to give emphasis to it.
Dr. Michaelis ig a firm believer in
the military strength of Germany and
in the effectiveness of the submarine
war
