Sweeping Investigation of In

From Charter Changes.

with Governor Browns approval of
Atlanta's charter amendment bill,
which was passed by both branches of
the general assembly yesterday, the
council will begin a sweeping investi-
cation of the citys street Improvement
system
Mayor VIM and Councilman Aldine
Chambers both said, today that Gov
ernor Brown had given them assur-
ance that he would approve the bill
On account of the limited time before
the city election, a special meeting Of
the council viii be called to appoint an
investigating committee. The charter
amendment gives the council authority
thoroughly to reorganize the chief of
construction department and make
many other changes.
Many officials today expressed the
opinion that The Georgian's campaign
for better streets would soon show gen.
uine material results. Alderman John
S. Gambler said that there was no doubt
that the real troubles with the street
Improvement system would be revealed
by the investigation and the necessary
adjustments made. A majority Of the
city fathers are agreed that drastic ac-
ton must be taken.
The city council meets Monday, but
on account of the many bills Governor
Brown will have submitted to him 1t is
not expected that he will have an OPP
portunity to approve the city bill be-
fore the middle of next week, There
fore, special meeting of the council
will probably be called.
The bill also gives the council the
right to close the Forsyth street under
pass, provided an outlet for the stores
fronting on the railroad tracks can be
secured Of which the governor will ap-
prove. This will help to make Forsyth
street one Of the principal thorough
fares of the city.
Authority to tax locker clubs $500
each and to close them through the
revocation of permits is granted. 1t is
expected that his provision will result
in the closing of number Of alleged

not to their advantage; but man will
keep on and persist in following a
course which, in the very nature of
things, must prove harmful
This is particularly so in the United
States. Unnecessary noises of the
street are conditions which Atlantans
and Americans in general are more
greatly subjected to than are the resi-
dents of any other country. Street
noises are "a decided factor in bringing

Immediately see that in the second case

The most UNI ecessary noises in At
lanta. in the opinion of DR.. Block, are
those coming from trains passing
through the center Of the city and
from drays passing over Belgian blocks.
These noises could be diminished by
the use of devices on engine and dray
and the absolute removal of Belgian
blocks, he said.

FEE BILL GOES To
BROWN To SIGN
WatchfuI WohIwender, of Mus
Cogee, Finally Puts "OId 88"
Across in the House.

A long sigh of relief is on its way
heavenward today, for senate bill No.
SO, the pride and erstwhile pet anxiety
of Representative Ed Wohlwender, of
Muscogee, has passed the house of rep
resentatives, and now awaits the sig
nature of Governor Brown.
This is bill to require all officials
receiving fees in Georgia to keep ac-
curate records thereof. and to submit
them to public inspection from time to
time.
There was much opposition to it,
and for a while it looked as if il surely
would fail of passage. 1t doubtless
would have suffered that sad fate had
some one other than Watchful Wohl-
Vender been behind it.
On the first day of the present SEES
sion Wohlwender moved to take old bill
So out of the pigeonhole. where it had
reposed year or SO, and "shove her
through" There was objection, and
Nohlwender sat down. Three days aft
sr that, Wohlwender tried it again
7othing doing.
Always the Same Clamor.
Then Wohlwender who has a voice
ike a fog horn and a vocabulary three
degrees finer than Ebert Hubbard's,
settled right down to a steady thrice
aweek viewing with alarm that Old IS
never had been brought to the house
COR it's august and distinguished con-
sideration.
Finally, the rules committee got hold
If the thing, and Wohlwender changed
his thrice-a- week viewing Withdrawn
to a twice-a- week performance He
ripped that rules committee up the
back, on the bias, and across lots. He
said things about it that can not be
printed in any newspaper hoping to get
by the postal authorities. There was
hardly a night that passed in which
Wohlwender did not toss and groan in
nightmare about Old So, and the rules
committee coming out of its lair every
few minutes and sitting heavy and de-
pressing like on Wohlwender's manly
chest
At last the pressure got too stout for
Bob Hardeman and his crowd, and
they resolved that the rules commit
tee must report Old SO for a hearing in
the house, or Wohlwender would organ
ize a lynching party. and there might
not be any rules committee soon. So
the bill was put on the calendar Tues
day. and Wohlwender was happy-an1
the thing passed with a whoop!
Now, Bob" Hardeman. who engi-
neers the rules committees steam roll
er, has a neatly framed motto hanging
over his desk in >the speakers room.
which reads: "Oh, persistency, thy
name is Wohlwender. of Muscogee!"

Clangor Wrecks Atlanta Nerves.
HOPE FOR NOISELESSCITY|

Noiseless Atlanta city sans the ex-
cessive changing of car bells, sans the
roar of heavy traffic passing over Bel
gian blocks, sans the grinding and
screeching of locomotives-is the ideal
which certain civic reformers hope to
see take concrete shape.
Not the least of these is Dr. E. Bates
Block, VINO says that without the noises
the average Atlanta citizens would
daily be in much better condition to
meet their moral and civic responsible
tiles.
The fact that Atlanta passes daily
through a series of clamor without no
torious disaster is proof positive to DR..
Block that a perceptible uplift in the
average condition of the Atlanta citi-
zen could be accomplished by the abo-
lition of noises which really are Gnnec-
essary.
OepIetes Nervous Store.
Whether an individual is what is
commonly called nervous or not, the
incessant clangor in his ear depletes
the nervous store and makes a man &C
tually less able to carry on his daily
duties" said DR.. Block.
The ear is one of the most delicate
organs of the human body, but our dis
regard for its well being through sub
hitting to barbarous and altogether I'M
necessary noises during larger part of
the day can not fail to bring about
lasting i'll effects. The best of nerves
have. but little opportunity to main
tain their integrity under such condi-
tions, but nevertheless we go on and
on in the same way. AS may be read
lily understood, nature at last revolts,
and the victim is forced to pay the
penalty by injury, often permanent, to
health.
