the league of nations.
{The league of nations constitution
mumnvlormi by neutrals meeting
& subcommittee on both Thurs
day and Friday.)
Only minor amendments were sug
gested, it is undersiood, and these
ean be easily met, If necessary, with
out materially changing the text of
the document,
Dispatches from the United States
opposing some of the features of the
league of nationg plan have called
forth comment here which empha
sizes the fact that the covenant and
the peace treaties are Insepatable and
must be treated as virtually ome in
strument. |
The visit of General Sir H, H. Al
lenby to Egypt continues to be a
matter of comment here. This has
tended to bring still further to the
public attention the suggestion that
g:. United Siates be made the man
dory power for Syria under the
lpague of nations. |
Sessions To Be Continuous. |
The sessions of the league of na«‘
tions commission will be (-nmlnuous.i
The bours, according to present
plans, will be from 10 to 1, from 3 10
$ and from £ to 11 at night. The
sesglons will be kept up untll all of
the suggosted amendments to the
constitution are disposed of and the
newly revisged document is ready for
submission to a plenary session of
the conference. While it ig unlikely
there will be any radical changes, it
is congidered certaln the original
covenant will be modified or strength
ened, |
There ie deep interest among the
Americans and the Latin-Americans
over the suggestions from Swiss
sources designed to meet the objec
tions ofscertain Americans who fear,
the leaghe may abrogate the Monroe
Doctrine, |
According to thle suggestion, there
would be nothing in the covenant
that could be interpreted as confliet
ing with the sovereignty of any of the
states shich are members of the pact,
Nor #hould the constitution be re
infringing upon any exist-
Mkt except in cases where the
3 rghip of the league Is unani
faous upon any decislon.
o’.‘:nmm of the Swiss,
The Bwiss authors of the sugges
tion contend that this would safe
guard the Monroe Doctrine, inssmuch
as a single negative vote would pre
vent any Buropean power from inter
fering with affairs on the Western
‘Hemlsphere,
Whether this will form the basis of
& new constitution designed to meet
objections from the Uniled States can
not be forecast now.
President Wilson will preside at al
moetings of the commission.

enjoyable week as the guest of she
Eatonton ochurch.
The police are holding W. H.
Brakefield, a big Studebaker car and
some 270,000 eigarettes of various
brands, in the belief that they have
captured a leading member of a bur
glar's clique and broken up the store
house used by the organiation for
its ill-gotten wares.
Brakefield was arrested a. 3:30
o'clock Saturday morning by Super
numerary Patrolman Stone. He is a
ehauffeur living at No. 519 Washing
ton street. When Stone saw him he
had just driven the car up in front of
a sort of storeroom at No. 18 Ivy
street, just around the corner from
Decatur street. There were two men
in the car with Brakefield.
Stone’s suspicions were aroused by
the manner of the party, and he
walked quickly up to the car. One
of the men promptly jumped out and
ran away. Stone took Brakefield and
the other in charge, but while he was
telephoning for the patrol wagon
Brakefield’s companion also made a
break for liberty, Stone, corsidering
Brakefield the principal member, gave
him preferred attention and took no
chances of losing him.
In the car were several cartons of
a popular brand of cigarettes, and
ahout a quarter of a million more of
different brands, were found in the
storerom. Louis Finklestein ldenti
fied Brakefield as the man who had
rented the storeroom from him sev
eral days ago.

THE FLU
INCURAELE
BUT
PREVENTABLE
Dr. Burkhart, just home from Mi
ami, Fla, where he spends his win
ters, is indignant to learn in his ab
sence that many of his representa
tives in their enthusiasm, have rec
ommended his vegetable compound as
a cure for the Flu,
Dr. Burkhart wishes to state with
emphasis that his remedy will not
cure the Flu, but he is enthusiastic
in his clalms, and he is supported by
the testimony of thousands, that his
vegetable compound will prevent the
Flu and kindred allments,
Dr. Burkhart eentends that nearly
all sickness is caused from neglect
and that if one but Kkeeps his inner
organs working freely no disease can
attack the body.
With this statement and common
sense to guide you, can you afford to,
or will you deny yourself and family
the protection of Dr. Burkhart's Veg
etable Compound, a 30-day treatment
which can be had at all druggists’ for
the trifling sum of 25¢? No home, no
person, should fail to have and al
wiays keep on hand this famous rem
edy and take same regularly as di
rected and keep well,
What cheaper insurance agalnst
sickness could one possibly carry?
So don't wait until this dread malady
cvertakes vou, for neglect spells sui
fde and is a crime against civiliza
tlon.—Advertisement.

] Officials at the Federal prison Sat- |
Im‘day expected receipt by Monday ot‘
la formal order from the United States |
Circuit Court of Apeals in New York, |
directing the release on SIO,OOO bond
each of Joseph E. Rutherford, wealthy
New Yorker who succeeded “Pas
|tnr" Russell as head of the Interna
}Lional Bible Students’ Association,
(and seven other New York Russell
|ites, serving terms of twenty years
each for alleged violation of the es
pionage law through the spread of
pacifist doctrines.
An order granting bail was signed
by the court Friday afternon. It was
€xpected here that the required pond
would be made in New York at onoe,
|and that the followers of the late
| “Pastor* Rusell would be freed imme -
{ diately on arrival of the formal or-’
| der at the Federal prison. The order
'fur bail was based on a writ of error,
through which attorneys for the im
prisoned men are seeking to obtain for
them a new trial. The writs will be
heard in New York April 14,
Woman Follows Husband.
The seven men convicted with
Rutherford are: Giovanni DeCecca,
|given a sentence of ten vears; Wil
|liam E. Van Amburgh, Robert J.
I?\lurtln, Fred H. Robinson, George H.
Fisher, Clayton Woodworth and A,
|Huxh MecMillan, 20 years each.
Mrs. Fisher is in Atlanta, having
come here to make her residence
while her husband is in prison.
A telegram was received by Ruth
erford in the prison early ¥Friday
night, notifying him that the order
had been signed by the Federal court
Friday afternoon at 8 o’clock. No
announcement was made in the tele
gram, however, as to when it likely
would reach Atlanta. It was believed,
though, that it would arrive at the
lprison not later than Monday. |
Rutherford, who was prominent as |
an able New York attorney, had be- |
come an ardent follower of “Pastor”
Russell, and succeeded to the head of
the Bible Students’ Association im
mediately on the death of Russell. |
It was his pacifist teachings from
“Pastor” Russell's book, ‘“The Fin
ished Mystery,” that resulted in his
arrest, with the seven other believ
ers in the Russell doctrines. The
Government contended that the teach- 1
ings of these men were detrimental}
to the success of the war, and vigor-l
ously prosecuted them.
