THE ATLANTA GEORGTAN ¥ . A Clean Newspaper for Southern Homes °®° ¥ THURSDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1918.
WASHINGTON, Dec 12— Liquor
stocks are falling low. A rush by the
holders of bonded spirits to gel them
out before the nation-wide dry spel
sets in is making deep inroads into the
available holdings in Government ware
houses, which represant all that are
left.
Stocks of distilled sgpirlts have fallen
to 130,000,000 gallons, the lowest figure
ever recorded in modern times. This
includes 12,000,000 gallons of raw alco
hol, which i 8 not fit for beverage uses,
80 that the stocks of whisky, rum,
brandy and other spirits are but 118,-
000,000 gallons.
Small Withdrawa! Last Year,
In the year ended June 30, nine
months of which came under the dis
tilling ban, only 87.787.823 gallons were
withdrawn from bond for beverage pur
poses. 'This I 8 the lowest figure for any
fiscal year of the present century and
is but little over half of the withdraw
als for the previous year
In October withdrawals totaled 8,500,-
000 gallons and since November 1 they
have been 11,600,000 gallons.
In the last fiscal year 90,000,000 gal
lons of distilled sl}firiN wére withdrawn
from bonded warehouses for denaturiza
zation for Industrial purposes. Stocks
at the beginning of the fiscal year were
only 158,000,000 gallons If 95,000,000
gallons are withdrawn for industrial
purposes this year only 68,000,000 will be
left over for beverage uses
Will Be Privately Held.
Withdrawals of such heavy quantities,
however, does not mean that liquor will
disappear, but @ is probable by twnay
time the only uvailable stocks will be
in private hands.
Iharly in the present vear figures were
given showing that under the trend at
that time the available public stocks of
whisky would disappear late next sum
mer. The rush that has developed
probably will advance the date several
months when the nation will go dry.
Government oflicials here say that
beer stocks will be all gone before that
time under the orders prohibiting brew
ing.

PATRIOTIC SONG CONTEST CLOSES DECEMBER 31
HIS is the last month of the patriotic song contest being conducted
by the Hearst newspapers throughout the country. No manu
seript will be considered which is mailed after midnight,
December 31st,
Five thousand dollars in prizes are offered for the best patriotic
song written by our readers. The first prize is $2,000; second, $1,000;
third, $500; fourth, $300; fifth, S2OO, and ten prizes of SIOO each.
Thousands of manuscripts have heen already recelved fromw known
and unknown authors. Everybody is invited to participate in the con
tegt, The object is to get a song that will express the patriotic senti
ment of the nation and stir the pulse of prosterity.
The rules of the contest follow:
Songs will be judged by a national committee of famous song
writers and composers.
Plans for a definite part in demobil
ization of the mmtion's fighting forces,
with a discussion of the matter of re
lating the soldiers to various work in
their own communities, occupied first
place in the conference of the Y. M, C
A. camp secretaries of the Southeastern
Department in Atlanta Thursday. The
keynote of the project was sounded by
12. 8. Mowbray, department director of
motion pictures, in the words:
“We will bend every effort and every
means at our disposal to developing the
men's capabilities. By presentations of
existing conditions we hope through our
organization to lead the men Into a
sort of broadening process, a realization
of their opportunities in peace times.’
More than 40 camp secretaries have
been present at the conference sessions
which have been held at the Congrega
tional Church with 8. A, Ackley, of At
lanta, executive secretary of the South
eastern Department, presiding, Canton
ments and naval bases in the States of
Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi
and Tennessee had representatives at
the conference. That there will be W
material letting down in work of the
Y. M. A, and no sudden decrease in its
personnel, but rather that a whole
hearted turning to the work of recon
struction was indicated. ‘
Already executive heads of the depart- ‘
ment, acting accoding to inslxuct\mm‘
from the New York headquarters, are
making arrangements to obtain speakers ‘
of national reputation to present the
situation to the men who will soon don
civilian attire and become an integral
part of the nation's productive force.
It is certain that at least six such
speakers will be obtained for the South- |
eastern Department, probably men of
such caliber as Wiillam Howard Taft
and Dr. Ira Landrith, who have been
noted for their efforts along similar
lines. Special emphasis will be placed
on the import of ‘“good citizenship”
and all that the phrase entails. \
This work, which will occupy all the
departments of the Y. M. C. A, will be
directly in charge of Dr. T. A, Wig
gington, department relirgimm .-»-m'ro»r;nr,\_‘
and A. M. Souby, head of the Southeast
ern educational work. In connection
with the new program an intensive mo
tion picture campaign will be inaugu
rated. An hour a day for- each man
during which he may attend one of the
“reconstruction meetings’’ had been pro
vided for in several instances by camp
orders.
Even though the number of men in
the military centers {8 in many cases
appreciably smaller than heretofore, the
work, if anything, has increased so far
as the Y. M. C. A. secretaries are con
cerned Statistics introduced at the
conference prove conclusively that the
huts are being used more, :qul that there
is a more econstant demand for the ath
letic equipment,

The name of Wainwrignt Is an inter

Wainwright, who died in 1711, used the
accompanying court of arms, and there
is in existence in old family papers, a
deed dated 1728, on which this old seal
is still to be found. When fully blazoned
it is described thus: Argent on a chev

fleur de lys of the field, all within a
bordure engrailed sable, a crescent for
difference. The crescent here is used as
a difference--that is, it was used to in
dicate that the bearer was a second son
of the one who rightly bore the arms.

family was founded in this country, it

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
OF OCCUPATION IN GERMANY,
Dec. 9 (by courier to Nancy).—Amer
ican troops that were rushed to Co-
Llenz at the request of the German
authorities are maintaining perfect
order, with sentries guarding the
Rhine bridges. tha lighting and water
plants, banks, railroads and other
strategic points in the absence of civil
police. ‘
The entrance of the doughboys at :1‘
o'clock yesterday afternoon was en
tirely devoid of demonstration. There
were few spectators and a conspic
uous silence, {
The Americans composge the Second
Battalion of the Thirty-ninth Regi-|
ment of the Fourth Infantry liivision,i
and their soldierly bearing groatly‘
impressed the Germans. |
See Beautiful Scenery. |
The long train which took the|
doughboys from Treves to Coblenz!
was trailed by a great string of
freight cars bearing supplies, :nmmu-‘
nition and equipment. The route lay
up the Moselle Valley and the ,\mer-i
icans got a glimpse of some of the!
finest scenery in the world. ‘
As the train passed through vil-|
lages many women and children gath
ered with curious stares for the
strange troops. Some of the young-!
sters timidily waved their caps
The Second Battalion is commanded
by Major Fred W. Hackett, of Cham
plain, N. Y. When the troops reached
Coblenz - they found a Jslegation of
German officers and soldiers drawn
up in the barracks yard as the Yan
kees moved into their quarters,
Kids Like Doughboys.
The American sentries soon became
the idols of the German children.
Ernest Westfall, formerly of Kan
sas City, for nine years a member of
the Missouri National Guard, but who
had enlisted in the German army in
1914, called at American headquar
ters today in search of his former
Kansas City captain. He was deeply
grieved to learn that the captain had
been killed in action.
There are no signs of hunger nor
poverty in Coblenz. The people are
well fed and clothed, but feel their
defeat keenly. The theaters and cases
are filled nightly

“Have It Charged” ‘
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Dec 12,~~The
charge that Congress, by enacting a
revenue bill to raise only six billion
dollars, probably is doing more than
any other agency to spreud Bolshev
ism in the United States, was made
today to Senators and Representa
tives in a letter by Benjamin C.
Marsh, secretary of the farmers’ na
tional committee on war finance,
Marsh Insisted that the present
revenue measure should be raised at
least $12,000,000,000 this yvear from
heavy levies and war profits and
large incomes,
“It is literally unthinkable,” Marsh
wrote, “that the Congress should agree
to a proposition to saddle more of
the cost of this war, which has been
a prolific breeder of millionaires, upon
the workers of the country in order
that these few thousand wealthy men
may augment their unearned incomes
and already huge fortunes out of this
war.”
Marsh described the "concentration
of wealth, due to privilege,' as a
“continuing menace.”
“For the Congress of the United
States to enact a revenue measure
which will raise less than $6,000,000, .
000 would probably do more than any
other single thing to spread Bol
shevism here,” Marsh said, “because
it would serve notice upon the Amer
ican people that the interests of the
privileged and wealthy classes of the
country are regarded by (Congress as
paramount to the rights of the peo
ple.”
