Watchdogs of Treasury Bark in
Lusty Choruus Over Proposed
Grant to State,
The watchdogs of the treasury
barked in lusty chorus Monday in the
Fouse of Representtives in debate
over the bill to accept for the State
the grant of buildings and equipment
of Bowdon College, in Carroll County.
Mr. Hall, of Bibb, and Mr, McCrory,
of Schley, proceeded to look the gift
horse in the mouth and to announce
to the House their fears that accept
ance of the gift would be an additi
tion to the State's liabilities,
“I am not ag{unst higher educa
tion,” said Mr, McCrory, “but I want
to make the institutions of higher
learning give a showdown for all the
money they set."
Medical College Attacked.
Mr. Schley attacked the medical
collofi at Augusta as too expensive,
In thi® he was challenged by Mr, Mc-
Dorald, of Richmond, the blind mem
ber of the House, who asked him if
the medical education offered at Au
gusta was not the cheapest in the
country.
“If that i 80, at a per capita ap
propriation by the State of S6OO, then
the game isn't worth the ammuni
tion,” said Mr. MeCrory.
Mr. McCrory referred to the “bank
rupt” condition of the State. In this
he was challerged hy Mr, Swift, of
Muscogee. ’
“Isn't it a fact,” interrupted Mr.
Eell, “taht the May and June requi
sitions for the State insane asylum
are here in the treasury unpaid? And
isn't it a fact that the Fourth National
Bank of Macon didn’t have to advance
money for the May bills of that insti
tution?”
Mr, Beek, of Carroll; Mr., Wyatt, of
Troup, and Mr. Dußose, of Athens,
spoke iti fevor of the bill. Th 2 House
adjourned in the midst of debate.
With little debate, the House earlier
in the session passed a bill to extend
the time grantad for fiiing bonds un
der bills of execution from 30 to 40
days.
Bills Passed by House.
The following other bills were passed:

of Brunswick.

Her Silver Spoons
(By International News Service.)
PHILADELPHIA, PA., July 23.—For
several weeks Mrs. Joseph Quinlan
had been mystified by the disappear
ance of numerous articles from her
household. She char'ed servants half
a dozen times, but the articles, such as
silver spoons and pieces of household
hardware, continued to be missed. Re.
cently her husband became ill and was
sent to the-Philadelphia Hospital, and
there the surgeons cut open his stom
ach and removed the following arti
icles:
I Thirty-four silver teaspoons,
One alcoho! eigar lighter and chain.
One padlock.
Twelve screen door hooke,
One glasg medicine dropper, !
Six 10-penny nails. |
Thirty-six carpet tacks. ‘
Thirteen metal buttons, |
Six safety pins,
Forty pleces printers’ type.
Thirty-two coins.
Four souvenir medals.
Nineteen screws (assorted sizes).
Two hundred,and forty-seven peb
bles,
Disordered nerves were responsible,
Mr. Quinlan confessed he was unable
to overcome his appetite when
tempted, for Instance, by a nice
nickel-plated screen door hook,
Agents Declare Big Rush Is Ex
pected to Begin First of
Next Month,
Real estate men Monday declared
that every effort would be made on
their part to close all sales on their
dockets during this week for the pur
pose of getting things cleared up for
the big rush that is expected to: start
the first of next month,
Numbers of sales have been pend
ing for several weeks, their comple
tion being deferred by the owners'
desire to Took over the market in an
endeavor to find something better.
This is getting to be less the case
every day, real estate men declare,
especially so in the event the buyer is
looking for a home, as good homes are
now 80 scarce that when a prospec
tive purohaser is shown one he us
ually takes it with but little negotia
tion.
But those looking for home prop
erty are wont to se everything on the
market before buying, and, according
to real estate men, many of them have
been disappointed during the last
week, in that after they were shown
one piece of property they began
to loak around, and while doing 80, in
the meantime the first property was
sold from under their hands, leaving
them disappointed, and still in the
market,
This is happening every day, say
real estate men, and within a short
tlrpe a general slogan 1s going to
sSpring up to the effect that “the first
to see will be the first to buy.”
The ecity building inspector issued
a permit Monday to Mrs. Frank
owens to build a brick building at the
northwest corner of lvy and-Harris

German Airmen Aim
i A
Many Bombs at Bank
Of fingland in Raid
(By International News Service.)
AN AMERICAN PORT, July 23.
Geérman airmen made strenuous
efforts to destroy the Bank of
England in the great air raid on
London July 7, according to pas
sengers arriving from England
today.
A squadron of nearly twenty
planes swooped down upon the
bank while anti-aircraft guns
from high buildings in the neigh
borhood poured in a hot fire. The
Germans threw down dozens of
bombs, but none of them struck
the Bank of England. One struck
the Swiss Bank, where a number
of persons had sought refuge, and
injured several persons.
One bomb fell into St. Paul's
Church yard, broke several of the
stone monuments and destroyed
the iron railing on the north side,
Another was dropped in front of
the main entrance to the Cathe
dral, but failed to explode.

the suicide of Maurice Allen Collins,
Collins, who was a Chicago news
paper reporter, took his own‘life that
his greatest idea might survive and
even be nourished by the forces which
compelled him to commit self-destruc
tion, He shot himself to call atten
tion to his open letter to the world
getting forth “the ghastly horrors of
the social and economical inequalities
of men.,”
He was cremated, at his own re
quest, on a replica of a funeral pyre
of ancient Greece, and the men who
attended that ghostly ceremony a
quarter of a century ago met to drop
a tear for their departed friend, and
went to the lonely spot on the barren
sand duneg on the Indiana shore of
Lake Michigan, where the funeral
rites were performed in 1892,

Federal Refusal to Grant Increase
in Freight Rates Is Borne
!
Out, e -
a——e ——
(By International News Service,)
WASHINGTON, July 23.-Railroaé
earnings for May, reported completed
today by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, bear out the commission
in its recent refusal to grant freight
increases,
_The 187 principal lines earned $92,-
079,548 in May, as against $90,931,79b
for the same nmonth in 1918,
The roads of the Eastern division
showed a loss of about filve million
under 1916, but Western and South
ern lines more than overbalanced the
shortcoming.
The commission entered an order
canceling all rulings previously issued
that might be found to conflict with
the terms of the finding in the 15 per
cent case .
Fort Too Congested,
. '
Say U. 8. Authorities
By JESSE 8, COTTRELL,
Washington Correspondent of The
| Georgian,
WASHINGTON, July 23.—When
Congressman William Schley Howard
called at the War Department early
today to protest against the ellmina
tion of the officers’ training camp at
Fort McPherson. He was told that
the order was made necessary because
of lack of area and facilities, Mr.
Howard insisted that there was room
at the camp fort to accommodate the
embryo officers, but was told that a
complete inspection had been made
ardthat, with th ecantonment at At
lanta and with so manly military ae
tivities there, it had begn decided for
the good of the service to readjust
the training camp sites and to cut
Fort McPherson out, :
The Georgian's corresgpondent was
told the same thing at the office of
the Adjutant General, the statement
being made that two inspections had
been made of Fort McPherson and the
report in each instance was that the
congestion was too great to accom
modate the cantonment and the mobi
lization of regular army troops that
was going on incident to the forma
tion of the new increments and the.
training camp in addition, and that,
the War Department had been forced
to make the change, which was in ne,
gense a reflection on Atlanta or the
manner in which students had been’
treated or the progress that had been’
made.
The order that went forth last night
will doubtless stand, as the conclusions
‘ upon which it was based were reached
after careful consideration, it was
pointed out to The Georgian corre
spondent. o hi
