THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN
)Shoelecs Wooer Chased
| By His Girl's Father
~ The Japanese custom of discard
ing one's shoes at the front door
will not make a hit in Atlanta.
That became apparent Tuesday
‘when W, T. Carver, 22 years old,
of 122 McAfee street was arralgned
in Police Court before Judge John
gon. /
Carver it was alleged, called on
a young woman in Fast Atlanta. Af
ter they returned from a pleture
show, Carver entered the girl’s home
for a call, but removed his shoes at
the front door to keep from waking
the girl's papa. But father awoke and
chased him from the house, then
telephoned the police. Carver was
found in his stocking feet and takes,
to 'police station. Judge Johnson
assessed a fine of $25 or thirty days
in the workhouse, and Carver, now
wearing shoes pald the fine.
The judge also admonished Carver
that hereafter when ne calls on a
young woman to keep his shoes on.
loaded revolvers were found con
cealed in Jester's clothing. A stick
of dynamite, with a fuse, and all
ready to be set off, was discovered in
Jester's bed. Another revolver was
taken from Clyde Thomas, while a
hack saw was found in the supply
box of J. €. Matthews, Several
‘rounds of cartridges also were found.
THOROUGH INVESTIGATION,
~ Warden Clarke was in conference
‘Tuesda.{ with Solicitor Boykin, and
it was made known a thorough probe
will be eonducted into the manner in
which the weapons and ammunition
were smuggled into the prison,
It was thought likely other arrests
might be made for complicity in the
plot.
In this connection, it was expected
that Colson, Ferrell and Presnell
would be grilled with the view of
unearthing further information.
Neither so far has admitted any part
in the conspiracy, it was said,
The fact that the plot was shrewd.
ly manipulated officials sald, was
demonstrated by the smuggling of
the weapons and ammunition to Jes«
ter and hig confederate despite the
special close wateh that has been
kept on them since the recent escape
made by Jester, Webb and another
convict It showed, they suggested,
thau. the convicts had ample outside

‘King George appealed for peace
in Russia, saying: ,
“In order to assure the full bless

King George declared that “soon a
German representative would be re

‘“We hope soon to see peace con

Trish bill, constituting Parliaments for
Ulster and South Ireland. Ireland,
simmering with rebellion, never pre
sented such a @fficult problem to the
British government as she does to
day. The labor party would accord
Ireland self rule, an antidote which
many labor men dre equally ready to.
accord Egypt and India.
The government's attitude toward
the coal industry, which the mlneu‘
are demanding be nationalized, is
pregnant with trouble. During the
parliamentary recess the miners have
have been conducting vigorous prop
aganda to “educate the country” to
their views, .
A third situation which may put
the government in an awkward po-!
aition .s the policy towards Russia,
linked with the high cost of living
and wld.spread profiteering . |
The labor party wants immediate
resumption of relations with Russia
as a means of cutting the cost of
food and clothing. |
POLITICAL SITUATION. ‘
The political situation as it stands‘
at the resumption of parliamentary
business is this: 1
The econservatives wh oform the!
coalitien can not operateda govern
ment that the people will stand tor‘
without Lloyd George. At the same
time the power of the labor partyl
is growing steadily with the labor
leaders supporting a elear-cut mod-l
erate program which they desire to
put into effect without any com
promigse with the coalition.
Even members of the Lloyd George
cabinet have recognized that some
thing ought to be done to give a new
complexion to Parliament and sug
gestions for the formation of a new
“national” or ‘center party” have
come through Lord Birkenhead, the]
loard chancellor, and Winston 8.
Churchill, secretary of war. ‘
Such a scheme, they argue, would
give Parliament new blood and still
retain the more valuable elements of
the coalition,
