Chief Beavers To Be
Sermon Theme

DR.. John F. White, pastor of the Sec
ond Baptist church and a leader in the
Men and Religion Forward Movement
this afternoon gave out a statement
praising the action of Chief Beavers
and declaring that the fight to down
vice in Atlanta has just begun Dr.
| White also announces that he will
preach next Sunday night on Chief
Beavers and the Present Situation"
DR., White says:
First, l want TO congratulate The
| Georgian on it's splendid editorial of a
| few days ago, an editorial which is
bound to exert a wide influence for
good throughout the entire state and
receive the commentator of all clear
thinking and good people.
I also want to stress the fact that
the Christian people and all of the bet
ter element of Atlanta are squarely be-
hind Chief Beavers in this fight-not
loosely, but solidly. The chiefs action
is the result of first hand knowledge OF
facts of constant contact with the or
ganized elements in support of vice in
Atlanta, of intelligence concerning
what has been done in other cities, and
above all, of his own conscience. which
kept his solemn oath to enforce the
law before his honest mind
THE attitude of the Men and Re-
| ligion Forward Movement, from the
/ beginning, has been based on lintelli-
gence and not on sensationalism and
fanaticism There was the lay-here
was the crime and criminals. There
was never a moments doubt of the out
come of the campaign. And it is not
over yet.
we have just begun the fight Re-
ports from many towns in Georgia in
dictate that the Atlanta spirit to sup
press defiant vice is going to be con-
tagious in the smaller towns and cities
of this state. Really, the movement is a
| part of great nation wide agitation
which can not be stopped, because facts
keep 1t alive"

SleuthS Say Busby
w oman Was Slain

Detectives today are securing the city
for strange man, clean shaven.
dressed in light suit of clothes, and
wearing a black derby. whom they be-
lieve may hold the key to the mystery
of the death Of Nellie Busby, the wom-
an found dead yesterday with dagger
in her heart in her room in one of the
illegal houses of the tenderloln.
Despite the note found in the room,
indicating that the woman had com
mitted suicide and giving the action OF
Chief Beavers in closing the tenderloin
as the cause. detectives today are
stronger of the opinion than ever that
the woman was murdered. They open
ly assert that the letter was a plant"
by an assassin to throw the police off
the track
The man in the case" was seen by
Policemen Lewis Whitley and Corley to
enter the house shortly before the time
the woman is supposed to have slain
herself This, with other strong cir
CumstanCes Convinces the detectives
that the woman was murdered and
that the murderer simply took advan-
tage of the present situation to get rid
OF her, leaving the impression that she
was respondent because her house had
been closed.
Talking to Policemen Whitley and
Corley at 1890 o'clock Tuesday night,
the woman said an attempt had been
made to Chloroform and murder her
SUNDAY night. The fumes, however.
were 50 strong that she awoke before
falling under the influence of the drug.
She told the officers she was afraid
some further harm might befall her,
and begged them to let her have a po-
Itceman's whistle, in order to summon
help in an emergency.
While the officers talked with the
woman at the front gate, the strange
man in the light suit entered the house
At this moment, the officers were called
away. and remarked to the woman that
they would see her a little later about
the whistle. That was the last seen Of
her alive
''H'b 'hN N"IlldU was discovered

had ordered in the night. was on a ia
BILE near by. Near the lunch was a bot
tie of beer. The woman evidently had
prepared to eat lunch, and had poured
out glass Of beer, 1t sat by the bottle,
however, untouched. The theory of the
officers is that the woman, had she
really contemplated suicide. would not
nave ordered lunch, poured out glass
or beer, and then suddenly plunged a
dagger In her heart without even sip
ping the beer or touching the lunch
While talking with the two police
men the woman appeared in good spr-
Its, and didn't say word against Chief
Beavers or his action. She seemed per-
fectly satisfied, and told the officers she
was planning TO open a roomins house
Detectives also say they are satisfied

Debts on Resort
Furniture Illegal

BY peculiar coincidence. an echo Of
the Collins street raids of two years
ago, in which that restricted district
was wiped out by court order, was
heard in first division of superior court
today. The verdict of the court will
check Atlanta furniture dealers who
have had dealings with the proprietors
of restricted district resorts and who
might be contemplating suits for debts.
In deciding the suit of the Abbot
Furniture Company, PAL Marietta
street, against Daisy Mobley, formerly
of 9 Collins street. the court held that
the furniture man had knowledge of
the Illegal character Of the resort, and
therefore could not replevin furniture
upon which money still was due
The answer filed to the furniture
company suit by the Mobley women. in
which the furniture company was held
TO be aiding and abetting the viola
ton of the law by selling furniture to
be used in an immoral resort, was sus-
tanned.
Court Defines the Law.
The court practically refused to take
the bail and trover suit filed by the Abb
bot people into consideration. for this
reason.
After Collins street was raided. the
Mobley woman moved to Jacksonville.
owing the Abboi Furniture Company
S272. She admitted the claim and suit
to replevin the goods was filed. The
furniture passed out of the woman's
hands before the Abbot people could
get track Of it, and she refused to pay.
The court init mated plainly that any
bail and trover suit brought under sim
liar conditions would meet with the
same fate. The courts, it was held, can
not recognize suits filed to obtain iudg-
ments on debts incurred as a violation
of the law.
