Herman J. Arndt and T. H.
("Whitey”) Cain leave the city Fri
day for Kittanning, Pa., where they
will join the “Vanity Box Revue”
Company, which opens the season
in that city. The revue is a George
H. Wintz production, and Messrs.
Arndt and Cain have contracted
with \\mtz for the season on the
road with this show.
Mr. Arndt has served several
years at the head of the stage staff
of the Imperial theater here and
is an experienced showman. The
fact that Wintz productions are
among the highest class road at
tractions causes Mr. Arndt's many
local friends to congratulate him
on joining them.
Mr. Cain has also been associat
ed with local theatricals for some
time and will work for the “Vanity
Box" as advance agent. He is con
sidered one of the best paper men

IN THE DAY’S NEWS
Complexes are falling too fast
and furious in the Chicago trial of
the millionaires’ sons for the lay
mind to grasp the full import of the
situation. The evidence so far as
it ha 8 been revealed smacks of to
tal depravity, and connotes an
abandoned, malignant, wanton and
murderous bent of mind that is
difficult for ordinary folks to un
derstand. Psychiatrists and alien
ists are reaping the prinicapl ben
efit from revelations in the court
room, and perhaps some tangible
knowledge of great value will be
adduced before the hearing has
ended.
If newspaper reports from all
parts of the southeast are indica
tive of the true crop situation, the
optimism that now generally pre- i
vails in business circles is well'
warranted, and an era of unexcell
ed good times is ahead of us.
, Hershel Eiders’ platform for gov
ernor was pitched upon too high a
plane to be possible of accomplish
ment at this time. He expected to
become a veritable alchemist in the
mines of Georgia politics. Just
such economic reform as Mr. El
ders favored will come sooner or
later, though, and Georgia will take
her rightful position among the
leading states of this country.
The measure limiting the taxing
power of the Board of Education to
-0 mills is described as the tuost
constructive legislation enacted by
a Richmond county delegation in
many years. Joseph B. Cumming
was the prime mover in getting
this bill enacted into law, and
while he had the hearty support of
Messrs. Rowe and Reville, his is
said to have been the untiring spirit
that met every obstacle and swept
it aside.
Martin E. Davey, of Kent, 0..
democratic congressman, who, by
the way, is a son of the late John
Davey, celebrated tree expert, who
was a visitor to Augusta last year
in interest of protecting the Greene
street trees, is attracting much at
tention as a result of a speech he
made in the house in interest of
forest conservation. Mr. Davey
graphically pictured the fast di
minishing lumber supply, and at
the same time pointed out the dam
age to top soil by leaving vast tracts
of land bare. Unless America con
serves her forests, Mr. Davey <te
clared, the time is coming when
this country, like China, will have
millions of acres of barren lands
that are not fertile enough to sup
port the population.
The Georgia legislature, not to be
outdone by the national congress,
is to have an investigation. The
house has voted to probe the Geor
gia Public Service Commission. In
vestigation generally serves no oth
er purpose than to make good news
paper stories and give publicity to
the men who direct them.
NO ENDORSEMENT

NORFOLK. Va.—The Brother

"This organization has joined
with no other labor groups in en
dorsing the candidacy of any one
man,'' said Mr. Lee, “and there is
little likelihood that It will. It has
been reported that Senator La rf)l’

per cent for labor, and I can ted
you that the record of John W.

NAVAL PATROL TO
GUARD AIRPLANES
ABOARD U. S. S. RICHMOND—
Every precaution is being taken by
the naval patrol to guard the two
remaining United States army air
planes in their short flight, sched
uled for today, along the south
eoast of Iceland, from Hoefn Hor
nafjord to Reykjavik, preparatory
to the hazardous hop to Greenland.
The, U. S. S. Raleigh will remain
at Hoefn Hornafjord, where the
New Orleans piloted by Lieutenant
Eric Nelson, landed from Kirkwall,
Scotland, on Saturday and the Chi
cago, commanded by Lieutenant
Lowell 11. Smith, on Sunday.
The destroyer Billingsley was due
early today at a point off Port
land and the destroyer Reid is sta
tioned 20 *iiles east of Reykjavik,
while the Richmond is due to ar
rive at Reykjavik at 2 p. m. The
course of this vessel will take her
along Uie coast for several hours,
so the filers will be further guarded
if they get an unusually early start.
The distance of the flight is
slightly more than 300 miles.
Lieutenant Leigh Wade and his
mechanician, Sergeant Ogden, who
are aboard the Richmond, are rest
ed after their trying experience of
Sunday in which they lost their
plane, the Boston, after a forced
landing at sea on the way from
Kirkwall to Roefn Hornafjord. They
appear most concerned over the loss
of their machine, which they had
hoped to salvage for sentimental
reasons even if they never flew it
again.
The U. S. S. cruiser Raleigh,
which had been on station here at
tending the fliers, proceeded to sea
with her destination probably Reyk
javik, where Lieutenant Lowell H.
Smith, the flight commander, will
decide upon the further plans for
the flight.

An Atom Gets Its Picture Taken!
Just a few scratches on the Photographic film of Prof. W. D.

matter in collision. It would take 100,000,000 of them laid end to end
to make a line one inch long. And here they are, moving through
space under the camera lens at tho rate of from a few hundred to
1200 miles a second. To further complicate matters. Prof. Harkins

Mexico Has Seen Its Last
Revolution, States General
Calles, the President-elect
NEW ORLEANS—Mexico ha*
seen its last revolution, General
Plutario Elias Calles, president
elect of the southern republic, de
clared Monday night in an inter
view which the New Orleans Rein
publishes today as a copyrighted
story. It was the first utterance of
the new president since his elec
tion.
General Calles spent several
hours in New Orleans en route to
New York from which city he will
sail for Europe within the next few
days.
“I am traveling unofficially to
Europe with my brother and mem
bers of our families,” he said. “My
purpose is to rest from the strenu
ous seven months which we have
gone through in Mexico and to
make a survey of social, labor and
economic conditions in Great Brit
ain, France and perhaps Germany,
that I may fipply my observations
to the benefit of my country as far
as the power is vested In me. Until
tho promulgation of the result of
the result of the presidential elec
tion in Mexico it would be mani
festly improper to speak in any of
ficial capacity as at present I hold
no position in Mexico. You may,
however, Ray this
“COMMITTED TO
NEW REFORMS”
“Mexico has seen her last revolu
tion. She stands firmly committed
to the new constitution aad’its re
forms.
“The lands will continue to be
restored to the Indians who are
their rightful owners. There can be
no more exploitation of the Indian
in Mexico.
“The rights of foreigners and
foreign capital will be respected
and both are welcome in Mexico
when they come there, to observe
our laws and co-operate for our mu
tual benefit,
•The international debt of the
country must and will be paid. It
is a debt of honor.
"Mexico will scrupulously re
spect the Integrity of other nations
as she detnands that other nations
respect hers. There will be abso
lute insistence that all government
in the republic function for social
justice.
SAYS COUNTRY IS
FRIENDLY TO U. S.
“Mexico has a special affection
for the United States. The two na
tions should work together In sym
pathy and harmony. Their social
dan business Interests are inter
twined. They can add to each oth
er's prosperity as they Increase tho
extent of their intercourse.
“The rule of class and the era ot
special benefits for special classes
Is over In Mexico. There Is to be
no more group control. All clashes
and all groups will be accorded the
rights of the law but no extra 1«gal
privileges, whether they be religious,
financial or vested In their nature.
