The Irish Bird.
Europe's Dangerous Condi
tion.
A Voice From the Sky.
‘‘Punch in the Jaw'' Rule,
~~- By Arthur Brisbane -~
INAR LAW, speaking for the
B British Government, says
that Mr. Lloyd George in
tended to receive Irish delegates
from this country to make them
realize how nicely things were ar
ranged in Ireland, “and thus open
their eyes.”
England, of late years, has tried
to make the Irish, asking for in
pendence, accept something else
“as good.”
You see a bird in a cage with
plenty of bird seed, comfortable
swing, cuttlefish bone on which
to rub his beak, sand on the floor,
gilding on the wires. Still the bird
would like to get out. That is how
it is with the Irish, and how it
has been for seven hundred years
and mora. They do not want the
cage fixed up, they want the DOOR
OPEN.
England has good reasons for do
ing all she can to pacify her people,
shutting out importations, to give
her people work, grabbing whatever
she can to bring wealth to her is
lands. An extremely intelligent
American observer, a business man
of large interests just returned from
England says:
“England is hanging on the edge
of a labor revolution, and the big
men know it. They are afraid to re
fuse labor anything. They would
not dare, in England, to jail a la
bor leader or other radical leader,
as we jail Debs and others. It would
give them civil war in 24 hours.”
Other countries are in positions
as bad, according to this clear-eyed
Western American observer.
“In Amsterdam,” said he, “there
are 85,000 men out of work. Con
ditions the are close to anarchy.
Policemen stand on streets in
groups, never alone, as alone their
lives would not be safe. All of Eu
rope, conquerors and conquered, is
, m a condition of dangerous unrest.
Conditions are made more difficult
by the fact that workers, exhausted
by the war, demand their full share
of government, highest wages, and
at the same time the right to do less
ar.d less work.
A man in a flying machine, 3,000
feet up, delivered a lecture by wire
less telephone to the Institute of
Electrical Engineers gathered in a
hall in London. There is, indeed,
a voice from the sky, the last word
of scientific achievement. How long
will it be before voices actually
come from other planets and philol
ogists are put to work deciphering
strange speech from other worlds?
The Women’s International Con
ference for Permanent Peace at
Zurich, including able women from
the United States, says that the
. peace terms with Germany “con
demn one hundred million people in
Central FEurope to poverty, disease
and despair.”
If that is so, the world will soon
knw it. A hundred million people
will not long endure poverty, dis
ease and despair without making all
the other people in the world un
comfortable.
You may have milions dying of
famine in China or India. Those
rcgions do not read and they
stopped thinking a thousand years
ago. The people of Europe are dif
ferent. ;
i A well-meaning, prosperous young
author says the I. W. W. movement
should be met “with the firing
squad.” His suggestion is that
members of the I. W. W. should be
stood up in rows and shot down,
and respect for law and order thus
increased. This is doubtless a pa
trintic suggestion.
Another patriotic suggestion
comes from a newspaper said to
be published in the interest of the
soldiers. The editor, a very brave
man, tells his readers if they hear
a man make a speech and don’t like
what he says, not to trouble a po
" liceman. but: “Give the speaker a
gnod Yankee punch in the jaw,”
Th's aiso is based on patriotism.
But the country must be run ac
cording to dull law, or it must be
sur on the romantic firing squad
and “punch-on-the-jaw” basis.
Where you allow the hastily or
ganized firing squad and the punch
to take the place of judge, jury,
constitution, ete., you make a rad
ical change.
So far, human beings have in
clined to the idea that law, impar
tially, strictly and Jjustly enforced,
is the only permanent remedy for
social troubles. This has been the
nrevailing opinion ever since the
days of thoughtful Hamurabi.
The old system should be dis
carded for the punch only after
reasonable deliberation, &Jtending
,over a period of several weeks, at
least.

GERMAN COUNTER PROPOSALS NEARLY READY
‘ \
German Financial Experts Coming
With Facts and Figures to
Back Up Claims.
NEW CHANGES ARE PROPOSED
Bernard Baruch Suggests Modi
fications in Treaty Terms Re
lating to Payment.
} By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN,
~ Staff Correspondent of the I. N, S,
~ PARIS, May 24.—That the German
Government has not yet taken any
formal decision against signing the
peace treaty was strongly intimated
today by Count von Brockdorff-Rant
zau, leader of the German peace dele
gation, immediately after his arrival
at Versailles.
“It is not a question whether we
sign or do not sign, but whether we
car fulfill the terms if we do sign,”
‘said the German envoy.
~ Regarding the miiltary preparations
of Marshal Floch, the Allied generalis
simo, Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau
declared that “the German people and
heir leaders must remain calm.”
.~ “We have a difficult task, but are
equal to it,” continued the Count.
“The German Government and the
German peace delegation intend to do
everything possible to safeguard the
interests of all classes and secure for
the country the possibiites of future
existence and development.
Counetr Proposals Sunday.
The German counter proposals to
trhe peace terms probably will be
handed to the Allies tomorrow, ac
cerding to one report.
Following the return of Count von
Brockdorff-Rantzau from Spa, the en
tire Teutonic delegation conferred
throughout the afternoon at Ver
sailles. It was said then that the
counter proposals would “be delivered
as soon as completed.”
German financial experts &are en
route for Versailles from Spa bringing
complete data on the suggested
changes in the treaty terms.
Advices from Copenhagen state that
the German press, in commenting on
the military activities of the Allies,
especially in preparation for transpor
tation of troops, state that they are
convinced it is not an “empty demon
stration.”
Bernard N. Baruch, one of the lead
ing American experts on finance and
economics, teday delivered to Prnsl-‘
d>nt Wilson, additional suggestions
as to change into the economic de
demands on Germany. ‘

SALVATION ARMY
DRINE GOEo ON
NEED §135.000
B T
- NEW YORK, May 24.—General.
Pershing today sent the following
cablegram to Brigadier General
Cornelius Vanderbilt, who is di
recting New York's campaign in
_the Salvation Army drive for $13,-
£ 000,000:
.~ «The American Expeditionary
Forces will carry through life deep
in their hearts their feeling of
gratitude and appreciation for the
men and women of the Salvation
Army who labored so valiantly
and successfully in ¥France. I hope
our people at home will record
their appreciation of the Salvation
Army by supporting its future ac
tivities.”
Fired by the same zeal that sent
the slender forces of the Salvatlon
Army forward with every advance ot
the doughboys in every American
,campaign, the workers for the Army’s
SBO,OOO fund in Atlanta will continue
the attack until the position is taken.
“Some of us are tired, some of us
are disappointed that we did not com
plet: the drive with success this
week—but none of us are discour
aged.”
This was the ringing declaration of
Chairman Edwin F. Johnson to the
loyal workers, whose support he de
’clared to be inspiring and beyond
‘value/ at what was planned to be a
'mass meeting in the Chamber of
Commerce last night, but which
turned out to be 'a gathering of the
faithful coterie only.
The public had been invited and
’urged, all but begged to attend, but
there was none present but those who
\have been actively carrying on the
drive since the start.
/'There have been so many drives
that it is not in me to complain of|
the small attendance,” said the chair
man. “Everyone is with' us. 'l‘hm-ei
can be no doubt of it. They urei
willing to give, they will give, and it
is beyond question that we will raise
the money.”
More Workers Needed.
Mr. Johnson emphasized the need
for more workers, and he issued a call
far volunteers to report at the head
quakters in the Chamber of Commerce
at 9:20 o’clock Monday morning.
With plenty of workers, all are con
fident that the $15,000 now lacking
can be raised easily in a day. It is
thought certain that since it has be
come known more effort hy larger
numbers is necessary to drag the
campaign out of defeat, the needed
workers and effort will be forthcom
ing.
At the outset it was announced by
(C‘hairman Johnson that precisely $62,-
547.1> had been raised. . Numerous
subscriptions announced during the
meeting increased the sum by more
than SI,OOO,
Amcng the subscriptions an
nounced was a telegram from Wil
liam Randolph Hearst, read by W. G.
Brvan, publisher of The Georgian and
American, increasing the total aona
tion of The Georgian employees, The
Georgian Company and Mr. Hearst to
a total of $1.0600. -
The meeting was cheerfui to a high
degree, and was considerably cnliv
ened by the efforts of Forrest Adalr,
who as auctioneer presided over the
destipies of a magnificent jar of
pickles, donated by Mrs. Grant Wilk
ins.
They were sold five times in the
course of a stroll by Mr. Adair amonrg
the seatg of the 30 or so workers,
and each “sale’” netted the Salvation
Army sls. And as each buyer imme
diately returned them a genuine pur-|
chaze hy bid finally was vvmvlm‘terl.i
resulting in the auctioneer's purchase
of them for $25 and their donation to

Big Vote in Atlanta Will Show
Senator Smith That Women
Value Suffrage.
By AUSTIN JOYNER.
The Sunday American’s social cal
endar of the new week's events does
not say so for some reason, but it's
true that the biggest event of the
week for Atlanta women will come
when the registration booth at the
Courthouse opens at 8:30 o'clock on
Monday mornitg for the registration
of the newly enfranchised women
voters of Atlanta. : 1]
County T Qolleqlfi* ‘Lucien Har
aß repe r registrdtion on
the cpening day. A fuli staff of work
ers has been arranged for, and in
additien to the official aid, there will
be a corps of women advisers present
to aid the would-be voters in their
task of filling out the officiul papers.
The pastors of every church in At
lanta were asked Saturday to urge
l“mn the women of their congrega
| tions the wisdom of registering with
' out delay and in as great numbers as
’pussxble. Every woman who is eligi
' ble to vote was asked to register and
‘ prepare to do her duty in the coming
city primaries.
Here's What It Takes. “
*The qualifications are simple:
Women voters must be over 21 years
\
of age; must have lived in the county
for gix months: must promise to give
moral support to the candidates nom
inated in the white primaries; must
have paid any taxes due the city,
county, State or Federal Governments
and must pay $1 registration fee.
Women from whom no taxes have
been due are entitled to vote by so
stating. |
Leading men and women from a]l‘
walks of life joined Saturday in a
campaign to secure the registration
of every eligible woman voter in the
city. House-to-house’ canvasses will
be made to reach thoge who have not
learied of the need for regislra.tlon‘
through the press, whilea ministers
and other public speakers are to bring
the matter before their congregations
and agudiences,
The women of Atlanta did not ask
for the right to vote simply for the
possession of the mere privilege, suf.
frage leaders declare. Their reason
for asking for the suffrage and the
reason of the City Executive Commit«
tee’s action in graniing them suffrage,
was that the cleansing effect of wom
an suffrage is badly needed in At
lanta. Constructive action for the
' benefit of the Atlanta public schools
‘and the health of the city is needed,
‘leaders say, and they have despaired
of getting such aetion from any
source other than the intelligent wom
en electorate.
‘ Must Vote to Keep Vote.
The fate of equal suffrage in Geor
gia depends very largely on the per
centage of female registration in At
lanta, all are agreed. The one great
stumbling block in the way of grant
ing full equal suffrage has been the
claim that the women do not care to
exercise the franchise. While this
may have been true at one time,
modern conditions have wiped out
that objection and made it not only
advisable but imperative that women
should participate in voting.
Watching the slow and tortuous
progress of education and social leg
islation in Georgia and other South
ern States, the women of the South
have been compelled to change their
former views on suffrage. The wom
en of the West have demonstrated
conclusively that only by admission
of the women to the ballot can laws
for the protection of women, children,
schools and the home be enacted.
The senior Senator from Georgia,
Hoke Smith, in casting his ballot in
the United States Senate against
equal suffrage, stated plainly that he
would be willing to grant suffrage to
the women when they irdicated to
him plainly enough that they wanted
it. The women of Atlanta have 2
wonderful opportunity to show Sena.-
tor Smith by registering in full force
this week, in time to change the
senior Senator's vote to favor equal
suffrage when the suffrage amend
ment comes hefore the Senate within
the next few days.
~ Must Show Hoke Smith.
Confronted with a registration of
women as great or in excess of the
percentage of men who are eligible to
register in Atlinta, Senator Smith
wiil not he able to avoid the conciu
sion that women want the ballot. Re-

a great crowd at the aviation meet
here this afternoon by climbing from
one airplane to another at an alti
tude of 2,600 feet,
Locklear was in a machine piloted
by Lieuetnant Short, while Lieuten
ant Elliott drove a machine from
which a rope ladder dangled. The two
machines went up to a height of about
5,000 feet, headed back to the field and
then descended until they were in
clear view of the spectators.
I.ocklear climbed to the upper wing
of Short's plane and walked out on
its edge, while the crowd, half a mile
below, gasped. Elliott drove his plane I
directly overhead and as the rope
ladder came within Locklear’s reach
h~ seized it and swung into the air,
while the crowd cheered.
