WANTS COTTON ACREAGE
OF STATE PRISON
DECREASED
Atlanta. Ga. -Governor M.
SlixKtn had a letter to the
BUMA prison commission asking that
body to out down the cotton acreage
at the state prison fnrrn next year,
thereby setting a precedent and a
wholesome example to the state.
“It Ik my undorMandtnK that if a
larger proportion of foodstuffs could
be raised it could be utilised and an
rxpenns of the maintenance of the
department thereby lessened,'* said
the governor. “If the same amount
of cotton is raided next year as this,
and if it is true that the coat of pro*
duct ion is 10 cents a pound, in my
Judgment the price next year will be
less than the cost of production, and
therefore It is to the general
ta*«* of cotton producers that they
limit the amount of cotton for 1916.*’

Impossible for him to serve until after

today regarding Representative Hen

of the opinion that he is not consider
ing taking any such action. It Is
stated that while the president ap
proves the Lever bill providing for

There were democrats, however, who
asserted an extra session might be

the democratic majority In either
house. Should there be such a re
sult, It was argued the administration
would desire to hasten action on many
matters remaining on the legislative

day reverted to the alleged mainten
ance of uniform prices on steel pro
ducts for long periods after the forma

ernment charges that the uniform
prices maintained by the steel corpora
tion and independents resulted rfrom
the Gary dinners In New York which
are attended by a majority of the Iron
and steel manufacturers of the Unitted
States. Mr. Colton argued that the
witnesses the government had called
and the documents it had presented In

corporation took the lead In having
the independents go along with it in
keeping up prices.

power only to a man elected to the

TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY
The supreme efforts of the fighting men of five nations have failed
to turn the tide of battle along the Franco-Belgian border. Latest reports
trklav were that a struggle of unparalled fury still was in progress along
the North Sea, where the Germans witli reckless bravery are throwing
their troops against the allies’ forces.
The French official statement indicates that an attempt to cut off
the German right wing had made some progress. If, as is said, the al
lies have established a front from Ypres, to Roulers, the German line has
been thrust back in a sharp angle, the point of which is considerably t«
the northward of their forces on the shore of the North Sea. The Germaa
1 movement aerss the Yser, which presented a menacing aspect to the alliee,
has been checked, the French war office says.
All accounts agree that the toll of human life exacted in this crucial
struggle is enormous. Three meadows near Ostend, a British correspon
dent reports are heaped with German dead.
There is no word from the remainder of the long line of battle,
stretching to the south and east across France to the edge of Switzer
land. Apparently both sides are awaiting the outcome of the conflict to
the north upon which depends future plans of campaigning, although it
is probable that heavy fighting still is in progress to the north of Ver
dun, where the army of the German crown prince is making a desperate
effort to pierce the French line.
Reports from the eastern front indicate the greatest battle of the war
in that area is impending. Austria, in its latest official statement, makes
the claim of having thrust strong forces across the Carpathians in the
face of determined resistance. German and Austrian forces, it is said,
have now a strong wall of troops along a well established line from the
northern spurs of the Carpathians before the long disputed fortress of
Przemysl into the district of Ploclt. Before this line is arrayed the main
army of the Russians now said to have been reinforced by troops from
the Caucasus, Siberia and Turkestan. The Austrians claim successes in
engagements to the northeast of Przemysl and on lower San.
No word has come up to early afternoon of the fighting at Tsing-Tau
where a small German garrison is attempting to stand qff attacks by
land and sea from the combined Japanese and British forces.
