FUROPEAN COTTON MEN VISIT GEORGIA FIELDS AND ‘EAT BARBECUFE’
By DUDLEY GLASS.
LAGRANGE, Oct. 11.—Evetrybody
in and around LaGrange says Fuller
Callaway is a prince, which he is,
but mixing around with Fuller hasn’t
heretofore caused any social prob
' lJems for Troup County folks, for they
call him ‘“Fuller” or “the boss.”
But the question of titles came up
and slammed LaGrange spang be
tween the riks today, when 300 or
more delegates to the great cotton
conference at New Orleans stopped
over for a day, parked their two spe
cial trains on the siding and took in
_the sights of the town and the mills,
and enjoyed a genuine Georgia bar
becue at the home of Mr., Callaway.
Among the two hundred European
visitors who have been seeing cot
ton fields for the first time are such
personages as Sir A. Herbert Dixop
of St. James Square, Manchester,
England, and Sir James H, Simpson
of the Bank of Liverpool, and Sir
Joseph Barton de Dobenin Jr. of
Nove Mesto, Bohemia, Czecho-Siov
akia. |
THEY HELPED FULLER.
/ The good citizens of LaGrange who
pitched in and helped Fuller Calla
way entertain the visitors by pro
viding automobiles and information
and conversation naturally wanted
; t¢ do' the right thing. They knew
Ruller had traveled a§} over: Europe
sand hobnobbed with royalty and
knew how to address dukes and
earls, and they didn’'t want to show,
Fuller up in his home town by not
knowing how to act. So they started
out to do things up brown.
But, by jings, this thing of a “Sir”
in front of a man’s name does get
one all balled up, doesn't it? Some
how, “Sir Herbert” doesn’t come trip
pingly to the tongue of a Georgia
man. It wasn’t more than fifteen
minutes before it was “Sir Dixon,”
which is a dreadful fox pass.
And Sir James Simpson was ac
companied by his good lady and his
daughter, Miss Hope Simpson, and |
theres nct a darn bit of advice in
the Farmer's Almanac about how to
. address the wife of a baronet. So}
she waa “Lady Simpson” and “Mrs.
fimpson” and nobody knew her first.
name, sos they couldn’'t address her
as “Lady Margaret” or “Lady Gwen
doline,” or anything like that.
But Fuller Callaway solved the
prohlem, as he does most. Every
body looks alike to the man who
made LaGrange the great cotton mill
town that it is. He had just as
soon slap a crown prince on the back
as a doffsr in one of his mills. and
the little matter of a “Sir” prefixed\
to a name means nothing whatever\
in his life.
He would be a “Sir” or something
better if his mills were in England
instead of in Georgia. But perhaps
he thinks being a king in his home
town is better.
He got around the social vexation
by calling everybody “Bill” or “Jim”
and let. it gc at that. And everybody
seemed to be perfectly satisfied.
Nor was their question of prece
dence at the barbecue. The first
man who could get hold of a slice
of lamb and ‘a pint of Brunswick
ptew backed off against a tree and
proceeded to surround it, and I no
ticed that Sir Herp. and Sir Joe ran
@ bite-to-Lite finish with the cham
rion barbecue consumer of - Troup
County.
There are deiegates from Italy and
Sweden, and Norway and France.
There are delegates from Brazil and
(‘zecho-Slovakia and Switzertand
and Holland. There is a group from
Belgium. But a careful search failed
to reveal a visitor from Germany, S 0
no trouble ensued.
ble ensued.
EVERY AUTO IN COUNTY.
it appeared that every automobile
in Troup County, which is rich in
every brand ‘from the $4,000 speed
sters to the poor but proud Henry o
was waitirg at the special trains for
the visitors to wake up and shave
and ba shown the town.
Mr. Callaway, if he desired, could
put it all over some of those titled
guys from England by pointing to a
thousand loyal retainers. He could
even show up the McGregor of Clan
MecGregor, whose thousands of clans
men were at his eall, when it comes
to rounding up assistants in show
irg off LaGrange.
Because everybody is tickled to
death to turn out and help Fuller
on a big day, and there are many
big days at his place.
After the tour wr the mills and
the model mill villages, a look into
the schoos and the hospital and the
playgrounds and the mill hotels for
mill girls ard all the modern im
provements which have made the La
_Grange mills a pleasant place to
work, the visitors wound up at th
splendid home of Mr. Callaway, a
nile out of the town, and one of the
grow places of Georgia. 5
The English visitors had a glimpse
of home here in the ancient gardens,
planted by Mr. and Mrs. Ferrell, gen
erations ago. The Farrells loh'-dl
their formal garden, lined by trim
cut’ box hedges and containing treefl'
and shrubs from almost every land‘|
Mr. Callaway bought the old place
some vyears ago, erected a modern
mansion on the site of the Ferrell
heuse, but he did mot alter the lovely
Tnglish zarden, except to restore
some of the time-worn walls and
clear the undergrowtn from neglect
ed beds.
There are many handsome home‘
in Georgia, but there is no other gar®
den like thts—the scene of ten thou
sand courtships of LaGrange [folks,
for it has always been open to the
public, and the home of a seore of
mocking birds which Fuller Callaway
calls by name.
Besides the Buropean visitors there
were manv New England delegates to
the New Orleans convention, many
of whom had never seen a cotton
field until this tip to the South The

‘Black Hand' Coffin
Starts Trouble Up
In Mamie's Room
Mamie Stubbins, negro, 77 Rob
bins street, appealed to the police
Saturday to protect her from the
“Black #Hand,” but the police in
cline to the belief that Mamie
should consult a “voodoo doctor,”
if she can find one, and get a
counter charm.
Mamie called up the police and
announced tremulously that she
had found a small wooden coffin,
about a foot long, in front of her
door. The coffir had a glass top
and in it was a note declaring
coarsely:
“We'll get you yet.”
This cryptic message was signed
“Black Hand.”
The police view of the affair is
that somebody has employed a
“voodoo doctor” to put the anclent
African curse on Mamie in the ap
proved fashion—in modern termi
nology, to jinx her.
They counseled Mamie to be of
good cheer and not Jose any sleep!

80-Year-old Vet, Hit
By Motoreycle, Is
‘Too Y "to Di
00 Young' to Die
Claiming that 80 years old was
entirely “too young” for any one to
think of giving up a grip on life,
J. F. Pouncey, the Confederate vet
eran who was struck by a motor
cycle in front of the Kimball House
Friday was rccovering slowly Sat
urday in Grady Hospital.
“T went all the way through the
war and didn't get Kkilled, and I
ain't going to let a meotoreyvecle do
what the Yanks couldn’t,” smiled
Pouncey from his cot in the hos
pital. The veteran appezred to be
enjoying his enforced rest and was
proclaimed the life of the ward.
Pouncey, who is a member of °
the Stonewall Jackson ~Post of
Ozark, Ala., was watching the pa
rade when a motorcycie, ridden by
Motorcycle Officer L. E, Shumate,
collfded with him. The veteran
was krocked to the pavement and
narrowly escaped injuries that
would have caused his death.
He was taken to the hospital,
where tha officer assisted in dress
ing his wounds before he would
allow the surgeons to care for his
own injuries.
Husband Gave Her
\ .
b
~ 3-Cent Stamp in
|
\
10 Months, Charge
| Mrs. Liola Maude Gailey Harmon,
in a divorce suit filed Saturday in
Superior Court, set out that during
a period of ten months while her
- husband worked in a shipyard in
~ Jacksonville, the only thing he sent
her was a 3 cent stamp, which she
used in replying to his letter.
The suit, which was filed by At
torneys Lawton Nalley and H. W,
McLarty, also charged that Har
mon’s neglect was due mainly to
his attentions to other women.
This, Mrs. Harmon said, had caused
several separations. She had gone
back to her husband each time,
however, on his promises to reform.
She set out one instance in which
she said her husband, while they
were living in Athens, became in
fatuated with a girl student in the
State Normal School, and was com
pelled to flee from Athens “under
cover of darkness” to escape arrest.
When she protested about his
conduct, she charges, Harmon
choked her and threatened to Kkill
her.
Bid Farewell to
Atlanta Friends
Tired from the long walk which
many of them made during the big
parade, but still happy and cheer
ful, hundreds of Confederate vet
erans came to the doors of their
tents at Camp Joseph E. Johnston
late Friday afternoon to bid good
by to their friends.
- Thousands of visitors flocked to
the camp shortly after the parade
was over to spend a few more
hours with the old visitors. The
streets of the camp presented the
appearance of a great city. The
street cars going to the camp were
packed to capacity all through the
afternoon,
Effort Made to
Record Congress on
Dry Act Repeal
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11,—An at
tempt to place Congress on record
as favoring or opposing the re
moval of the war time ban on the
sale of liquors, beers and wines
was made today by Representative
John W, Rainey of Illinois, who
introduced a resolution requesting
the President to proclaim the de
mobilizatior of the army.
The resolution reads “it is the
sense of Congress that the condi
tions necessary to the termina
tion of the war time prohibition
act, and prescribed therein now
exist.”
| The resolution was~referred to
the Judicifry Committee.
By THE REV. E. CLOWES CHOR
LEY,
Historiographer of the Episcopal Dio
cese of New York.
DETROIT, Mich, Oct, 11.—‘Maybe
there are politicians who have made
the League of Nations a political is
sue; maybe there are those who are
fiddling while the world is burning,
but we have not a dance to their
fiddling.” |
So passionately cried Bishop Charles
P. Anderson of Chicago, as he spoke
in support of a resolution he intro
duced into the House of Bishops in‘
favor of the Lieague of Nations. The
resolution ran as follows: |
“Resnlved, That the bishops of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, assem-~
bled in Detroit. hereby endorse the
League of Nations and the covenant
of peace and express the earnest hope
that the United States Senate will
speedily ratify the same.”
BRINGS ON DEBATE.
_He argued strongly that the league
raised a moral issue and that the
church was bound to give it her un
auvalified support.
The resolution led to a full dress de
bate, the speeches on both sides being
punctuated with loud applause, both
from the floor and the spectators who
crowded the galleries. A strong
speech in opposition was made by
Tiishop William Lawrence of Massa
chusetts,. who expressed * his regret
that the resolution had been intro
duced.
“l am not ready,” he said, “to un
dertake moral leadership by support
of an immoral act.” 5
He expressed his readiness to sup
port a league ~f nations, but not a
league open to misunderstandings
among nations, and possibly war.
WILL WEAKEN TAFT, HE SAYS.
“We do not know,” he declared.
“whether this resolution will help
those who want a léggue, and it will
weaken the hands of Mr. Taft, who is
now pressing for reservations.”
Bishop William A. Guerry of South
Carolina asked how many members
of the Houge of Bishops had read the
treaty of peace and how could they
lead the conscience of the world if
they went on record in favor of the
Shantung provision.
“China,” he ecried, “has been our
friend; our country asked China to
come into the war, and now we be
tra;' her.” y
“eanwhile, a substitute resolution
had been moved by Bishop C. B.‘
Brewster of Connecticut, in the fol
lowing: |
“Phat the bishops of the Episcopal
Church assembled in Detroit respect-|
fully express to the Senate of the\
United States their earnest hope for|
such early action on the part of the
Senate as may secure the participa
tion of our country in a covenant of
nations which shall effectively guar
antee the authority of international
law and protect the world from con
ditions that may menace its peace.”
INFLUENCED BY SHANTUNG.
This wa& done in order, if possible,
to enable the bishops to: present al
unified front. The vote was taken|
and Bishop Anderson’s resolution un-|
qualifiedly endorsing the present planl
for a league of nations was defeated
;by a vote of 58 to 44,
Bishop Anderson then moved that
the resolution of the Bishop of Con
necticut should be made unanimous,
which was done,
It was evident throughout that thel
bishops were greatly influenced by
the Shantung provisions and strongly
opposed them.
The action of the bishops will have|
considerable weight with the House |
of Clerical Lay Deputies, which now |
has awaiting consideration a resolu-|
tion presented by the Rev. Dr. G. G.
Meade of Mississippi, giving unqual-ll
ficd endorsement to the league.
Dr. Meade has anncunced his inten.
tion of pressing his resolution, which,
if passed, will run counter to the ac
tion of the bishops.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—Senator
Norris, Republican, of Nebraska is
‘o resume in the Senate today his
address in opposition to the Shantung
and other provisions of the peace
treaty with Germany, in accordance
with the agreement reached by the
Republican and Democratic leaders
that speechmaking and the reading
of the treaty should continue until
Wednesday next at least,
The sum and substance of the
agreement was that no vote should
be forced by either side on the pend
ing Shantung amendment or any
other proposed textual changes in the
treaty before Wednesday next.
Senator Lodge of Massacthgetis ~
planned to deliver today his carefully
prepared address in which he prom
ised to reveal.the real inside story of
Japanese encroachment upon Chinha
and how Japan was able to foree the
so-called Shantung “settlement” upon
the peace conference and inte the
peace treaty.
HOPE FOR COMPROMISE.
' Republican leaders claimed that
‘lhey would be able to muster enough
votes to bring about the adoption of
a compromise amendment to equalize
the six votes the British empire and
the one vote the United States are
given in the League of Nations as
sembly under the terms of the pres
ent treaty.
Senator ILenroot of Wisconsin, one
of the Republican “mild reservation
ists,”” was given credit for the com
promise amendment which was the
outcome of a series of conferences. °*
It was described as embracing the
idea of the original amendment spon.
sored by Senator Moses of New
Hampshire, a Republican member of
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, that the United States refuse
to agree to any League settlement in
which she was oui-voted by any other,
nation and the latter's possessions,
dominions or colonies.
JOHNSON BACKERS FIRM.
Supporters of Senator Hiram John
son of California, whe is due to re
turn to the Senate early next week
from his speech making tour to the
West in opposition to the treaty as it
is now constituted, intimated today
that any amendment involving the
#ix to one proposition that did not
bear Johnson's name would be sup
ported by them. They added that
they did not intend to allow the six
to one amendment to be known,
whether carried or beaten, by any
other title than that of the Johnson
amendment,
(‘onceding that the Shantung and
other amendments were due for the
same kind of a defeat that was ac
corded the Fall amendments recently,
Johnson's frjends predicted that with
the aid of four or five, if not more;
Democratic votes, the six to one
amendment would be adopted by a
majority vote.
