These four infractions, which hap
penei TO be called prominently into
the public eye, scarcely scrape the
surface OF the criminal doings dur
ing the last two weeks.
The police are at a loss to explain
these conditions.
Grady Has Strenuous Time
Grady hospital has just passed
through two of the most serenuous
weeks OF its existence. Police head
quarters is filled with prisoners of
all types. Bandaged bodies and
cracked skulls appear upon the by
ways Of the underworld.
| A graphic illustration has been
drawn Of the need of better facilities
and additional men by the police de-
partment. The necessity of police
IsuG-stations, also, has been wildly
impressed upon the civic govern
ment.
] Authorities at Grady hospital ap-
proXimate list of victims from trag-
edies since August 10 as $50 or
more. The fatalities, they say, will
reach ten and even higher. The pis-
tol, the dirk, sandbags and clubs
contributed their liberal quota.
So far as has been ascertained,
this number of victims exceeds any
record heretofore established. Police
data shows no greater record, and
neither does hospital history. In ad-
dition, the number of arrests is
greater than ever before. -
All Hospitals Get Share
! Only the records of Grady hospi-
tai were obtained. 1t is the only
= municipal institution of its kind in
the city, naturally bearing the bulk
+ OF work that results from a carnival

g have received their share, the STA
: tistics Of which will undoubtedly
+ swell the list of victims even higher
= than has so far been recorded.
: 4 majority of the patients that
|. poured into the Grady clinic during
: the past fourteen days were victims
g with knife wounds, stabbed in brawls
AMI rows of the bad lands. Many
came with gun-shCt wounds Some
/ were injuries from sandbags and
e clubs.
Most of the fatalities were among
/. the negroes. A small number of
Il these victims were brought to the
u hospital. Only those who were Iiv-
II ing were carried away from the
It scene. Many were found dead upon
s the arrival of the ambulance.
A homicide that attracted widest
attention was the Staying Of Lee

Grace Witness Killed
Another killing that attracted con
siderable interest was the killing OF
Martha Ruffin, a leading witness in
the famous Grace trial, who was
slain by Elk Smith, negro. on Au-
gust % near the Ruffin woman's
home. Smith was arrested and bound
over to criminal court.

Dear Sir: Your letter OF the 30th

The clipping referred to is very
misleading, it in no wise attempts TO
give true conditions in Atlanta,
Atlanta in her growth. has reas-
enable increases every year. but pro-
hibition has not been the cause OF
any OF that increase.
In 1909, Atlanta increased her
territory limits by about double,
which brought into the city a great
deal of territory that was already
built up, and very valuable, and
naturally when placed upon the tax
books increased the volume of rev.
enue Prohibition had nothing
whatever to do with this increase,
neither do | attribute the increase in

Prohibition may have some good
Ipoints, but they are not of sufficient
moment to justify it in claiming the
whole earth.
The comparisons made by the Col
den Age in 1907 and 1912, in view
tof what l have said above, are out
!rageous, and should not be taken
seriously.
We have had gain Of twelve mil.
lion in real estate values this year.
! When it comes to the question Of
prohibition in Atlanta, | regard it a:
an absolute farce. We have one
hundred and seyenty-One beer sa

malt liquor drinks, and eighteen so
cial clubs with a membership rang

pensed. This, not to say anythin!

1913, p. 1856 1896
: This timely article shows us how
politics has kept us behind other coun.
tries in river transportation. Practical
suggestions for a new policy are given

portant waterways and canals.
The New Freedom, by Woodrow Will
son. Worlds Work, Jan. 1913, p.
253 1854.
The Introductory chapter of series
of articles. Mr.. Wilson argues that
the laws under which business operated
at present are inadequate, because Il
new nation has been created which the
old formulas do not fit, and that what
our country needs above everything
else is body of laws which will look
after the men who are on the make
rather than the men who are already
made"
