Smith announced the intention of the
committee today.
After a long meeting yesterday aft
ernoon, however, the committee decided
upon a number OF Improvement re-
forms

ing specifications. with more definite
time limits in which the work should
be completed
They declared that all city depart =
ments and the public service corpora
'tolIH 9llouiu put IN IDell pipes anC
tracks at the same time so as to pre-
vent unnecessary delays, as in the case
OF Peachtree street.
1t was agreed that all street i'm
provements for the year should be plan
ned before the first meeting Of council
in March that the work might be begun
early in the year.

confer with officials of the trolley com
pany on plan to have the com
pany transport stone for street paving
and haul city convicts to and from the
stockade
All the members Of the committee
with the exception OF Harvey Hatcher

TIC reforms. The committeeman de
elared that what had already been done
since the beginning OF The Georgian
campaign was good, but that more re
forms We're needed.

Wraps Really Necessary.
The wraps were really necessary. be-

and polo coats were worn indiscrimi-

what an exquisite hat!" and break

But they're strictly businesslike when
they get down to work on the floor
Mrs. Fl, c. White president of the fed
Grafton, has a gavel with a trusty han
die. and when she pounds it on the
desk there is order erywhere-for a
moment.
The first day was given over princi-
pally to reading reports of officials.
Written reports are seldom marvels Of
human interest but their authors read
them today as eioquently as though
they had an offer for dramatic rights
in their mornings mail and the dele
gates listened, too. The news that one
club had added a bunch of new mem
bers was received with applause, and
the announcement Of some task well
done brought rounds of cheers And
when anybody wanted to address the
convention it was done in the proper
way, too, with all the parliamentary
law in the book Of rules.
Handsome Statesmen There.
The back Of the nall is given over tc
exhibits this week, with everything
from electric vacuum cleaners to cream
separators being demonstrated by
handsome and a6able statesmen. There
is model sanitary kitchen outfit with

Of brushes warranted to starve a germ

Always Longed
To Visit Georgia.

I've always wanted to visit TINS part
Of the South. I've passed through
Georgia often, but always on fast
trains, and the Georgia folk / met only
made me hungry TO stop a while with
you. And now that I'm here I'm going
to enjoy Georgia to the utmost"
That was the way Mrs Percy V.
Pennybacker greeted Atlantans who
met her at the train. She in president
Of the General Federation of Women's
Clubs which has 5000 900 members. and
she is here for the clubwomen's con
Vention. She was met by Mrs. Boiling
Jones. who will be her host in the city,
and by Burton Smith. who was once her
schoolmate, and she began chatting
away as freely and happily and just as
much at home as though she had lived
here all her nfe and was among child
hood chums
Mrs. Pennybacker doesn't give one
the impression that she is a militant
suffrRgette or one OF those clubwomen
the funny papers describe as leaving
their children unwashed and unfed. She
as just bright little Inotherlike wom-
an. so ready to please that she endured
being dragged about to give the came
xas good light. promised any inter-
view wanted and didn't say a word
about e. long railroad Journey on a train

Baroness Opens
The Convention

The address Of the Baroness Won
Suttner at the Auditorium last night
marked the informal opening of the
convention Most of the delegates had
arrived and the scene in Taft hail was
q brilliant one. The Baroness who had
arrived only shortly before the meeting,
was escorted to the stage by Mrs John
NJ. Slaton, who is entertaining her for
her stay in Atlanta. and was presented
10 Governor and Mrs. Joseph NJ. Brown.
She was formally welcomed TO the con-
vention by DIR. and Mrs. II. c. White
and Mrs. Charles ]. Haden.
The Baroness wore an evening gown
OF black velvet with garniture of cut
Jet, with jet tiara from which hung a
veil OF lace. She is a handsome wom-
an, whose features speak OF generations
of high breeding, and she was thor
oughly at home upon the platform.
No other woman has done so much
for the cause OF world peace as Bertha
Won Suttner. author OF that powerful
work. Lay Down Your Arms" F'o,
years she has travelled and labored in
the cause OF universal disarmament and
took an important part in the Boston
Peace congress Of 1904 and the London
congress OF 1908
The Baroness speaks English almost
perfectly. but with an accent that has
charm all its own. Occasionally in her
address she would pause for q word
and turn TO Nine. Andrea Hofer Proud
foot, secretary Of the International
Peace league, who quickly would sup
ply the word needed. She paid a high
tribute to American women and said
she believed they were responsible for
placing America 90 years ahead OF other
nations in the movement for peace

BECKER CASE To
JURY TOMORROW
Arguments viii Close Today.
State Witnesses Denounced
as Actual SIayers.

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.--The four chief
witnesses for the state in the trial of
Police Lieutenant Charles Becker for
the murder OF Herman Rosenthal we're
denounced as the actual assassins OF
the gambler informer by John +. Nc
Intyre. chief counsel for the defense. in
his closing address to the jury today.
Mr.. Mcintyre began his speech i'm
mediately after court reconvened. He
said that II would probably take him
three hours and half to finish. The
state will conclude it's argument before
court adjourns tonight and the case will
be given to the jury tomorrow morning
by Justice Cot
Calls Aceussrs Vile.
Attorney McIntyres speech was a
calm forceful analysis Of the testimony
becoming oratorical only when he de-
nounced Jack Rose, Harry WALTON. Sam
Schepps and Louis Weber as the men
who actually plotted the death of Ro-
seminal At this point Mr. Mcintyre
cried:
81 am defending an American, not a
murderer His accusers are vile-not
lovers OF the flag nor the institutions
under which we live, but q :awIess anc
degenerate set seeking filth and infamy
This trial had its birth in the career
Of four murderers-Rose. Weber, Val
lon and Schepps. self confessed assas-
sins, all OF whom, when it is over, will
be free men again in this city, to muir
der again il they please
MI Mcintyre told the jury that the
only evidence against Becker was that
of crooks gamblers and blacklegs; -
that such evidence was not worthy OF
credence, and thai no twelve men have
the right on their own conscience TO
send man to the electric chair on such
testimony.
Davidson, Quakine, Arraigned.
The summing up was interrupted
when RED" Phil Davidson. the man
who murdered big Jack" Zelig, the no.
torious gang leader, was arraigned be
fore Justice Golf, upon application OF
District Attorney Whitman. that spe-
cial panel Of talesmeu be called for his
trial. Mr.. Whitman asked that David
sons case be set for October 30. adding
that he hoped to have not only Zelig S
trial out OF the way before Christmas
but also those OF the gunner In the
Rosenthal case, "Gyp the Blood, "
Lefty Louis" "Dago Frank" Cironcl
and Whitley" Lewis. Zelig is alleged
to have furnished the gunner who slew
Rosenthal.
When Davidson was arraigned he
stood at the bar within four feet OF
Becker. shaking Ike a leaf, AS the
brief proceedings went along Davidson
became hysterical and began to cry
He was on the verge OF collapse when
taken from the room. a plea of not
guilty was entered for Davidson by his
lawyer, and Justice Goff ordered the
calling of a special panel for his case
next Wednesday. Then Davidson was
taken back to the Tombs, and MI Nc
Intyre resumed summing up where he
