his friends that he will acquit himself
with credit and distinction abroad.
The Court Of Appeals is making
every effort to wind up all cases in
which Judge Hill is concerned be
fore that gentleman leaves the bench
to assume his duties as Judge Of the
newly created Atlanta Circuit.
No unargued cases win be heard
until the new appeals bench is COM
pleted by the swearing in of Judge
Roam, and in the meantime. the court
will work overtime preparing and
handing down opinions upon cases al
ready argued.
It may be stated. perhaps, in good
taste, that the remainder of the court
parts with Judge Hill with genuine
and sincere regret He has been a
member Of the court since it was
created and is very greatly loved by
his colleagues. not only for his ability
and courage as n lawyer. but for his
many fine and admirable qualities as
a man.
Judge Hill is the Chief Judge Of
the Court, and has always held its
integrity and dignity close to his
heart
The rumor that Representative
Crawford Wheatley, of Sumter Coun-
ty, may be a candidate for Congress IS
next year against Congressman
Charles r. Crisp, while more or less
persistent, is not being taken with a
very great degree Of seriousness.
Not that Mr.. Wheatley is not Con-
gressional size, or that he isn't popu-
lar and well esteemed throughout his
district. but that Mr.. Crisp is serving
his first term in Congress, and IT is
customary in Georgia to award a
tirst-term Congressman reelection
without protest unless some very Sc
rious objection to his service is raised
in the meantime.
Moreover, Charlie Crisp is very
strong in his district. has had long
experience in Washington as House
parliamentarian and otherwise, be
fore his election to membership; and
over and above all that, he is the son
of his father, the late Speaker Crisp
and the district would hardly turn
him down without very substantial
reasons therefor.
As a matter of fact, therefore, It IS
hardly probable that MI Crisp will
have any opposition whatever for re-
election to the National House.
1t seems to be accepted as a fore
gone conclusion, although he has
made no authoritative announcement
Of his intentions that former Solicit
tor General J. Walter Wise, of Fay
etteville, will again be a candidate for
Congress against Judge Bartlett.
The race between these two gem
tlemen was painfully close last time,
Mr.. wise losing to Judge Bartlett by
very close margin, and then only
in the Judges home county, Bib.
| 1t has been stated that Judge Bart
| lett will not run again-indeed. it has
| been said that he has so publicly an
rfounced-but this may or may not he
! true, II appears. At any rate, Judge
| Bartlett's friends, or some of them,
anyway, are talking reelection fOr
| him right along.
Mr.. Wise is an exceedingly strong
man, and there is no doubt whatever
| that he will make a most formidable
| and perhaps a winning, candidate.

CANAL To BOOM
ATLANTA, SAYS
BARRETT
Pan-American Director Urges the
Gate City to Begin Early to
Exploit Advantages.

John Barrett, director general OF
the Pan-American Union, asserted on
his visit TO Atlanta Friday that the
South occupies, from a commercial
standpoint, the most strategic posi-
ton in the world to profit from the
opening Of the Panama Canal.
Atlanta and the remainder of Geor-
gia, he said, will reap incalculable
benefit from the canal If the mer-
chants, manufacturers, exporters and
importers will awaken to the trade
possibilities presented.
With Clarence J. owens, managing
director of the Southern Commercial
Congress, he was the guest Friday
afternoon and night of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce.
Trade Scramble Certain.
He called to the members attention
that Immediately upon the opening Of
the canal there would be a scramble
among the various States and among
the foreign nations well in an eff
fort to seize the greatest commercial
/ benefit from the big ditch"
Referring to his mission in an in
! terview, he said:
1T is my purpose to impress upon
the business men of the South three
important points:
First, the imperative necessity of
sending a large delegation to the
Southern Commercial Congress In
Mobile in October
Second the advisability of Atlanta
and the remainder of Georgia sending
ten or twenty pen on the excursion
to the Canal Zone after the Com
merCial Congress is ended.
Urges South American Tour.
Third, the vast commercial benefit
that would accrue to Georgia cities
| If Atlanta alone or in combinat ton
with other important Georgia cities
would send one OF two of the State Z
best men on the trip around South
1 American countries which will follow
the visit to the canal.
THE mission of these men will be
TO tell the people of the South Amer
( Jean countries about Atlanta and
about Georgia, and to discuss with

Interesting political gossip which
recently connected the name Of J.
Randolph Anderson. Of Chatham
County, President of the state Sen
ate, with Congressional aspirations
has switched back to its former place,
and it is again being stated with
considerable show Of authority that
he intends running for Governor
whenever Governor Slaton, whom he
viii not oppose in any event, has
finished his term. either by choice or
limitation, as the case may be.
Mr.. Anderson lives in South Geor-
gia. and II he runs for Governor. it
will be distinctly as a South Georgia
candidate. OF course. At the same
time, however, ne has established a
summer residence in Cobb County,
and will claim some measure of con-
sideration up that way by reason
thereof
When Judge Richard B. Russell ran
for Governor several years ago, he
claimed divers and sundry counties
as his very "OnHest" own, and gem
orally was able to advance some spe-
cific right to consideration at the
/ hands Of the voters therein.
If Mr.. Anderson is as good a claim
er as Judge Russell was, and likely
still is, he viii not be at all back
ward in setting up reasons why some
considerable lot Of people in every
county should vote for him.
If Mr. Anderson elects to run fo-
Governor in succession to Governor
Slaton-which IS looking rather far
ahead, pcrhaps-there is a possibility
OF Thomas w. Hardwick opposing
him. and also a further possibility
! that Gordon Lee may throw his hat
into the ring.
And, then. too. there is Speaker
William H. Burwell. of Middle GeOr-
gia, who may think that he halls from
about the right section for every
! body to compromise upon.
Governor Slaton has friends who
think he may enter the next Sena-
torial race, but the Governor him
self has given no sort of countenance
! 10 rumors connecting his name with
! that suggestion.
None of the gubernatorial posi-
bilities mentioned are counting upon
a chance 70 run for some three years
yet, and to that end they are shap-

Word comes from abroad that
| Pleasant A. Stovau, of Savannah,
| United States Minister to Switzer-
| land, is more than well pleased with
! his assignment in Uncle SANS
| diplomatic service, and that he be-
/ lieves he may be useful no less than

! The Swiss mission generally has

ATLANTA
CANT PENSION
WIDOWS
illegal, Says Mayson-Charity
Association to Ask Council to
Buy Books for Por Pupils,

City Attorney James I. Mayson
said Saturday that the city could not
take up the Associated Charities
proposition to pension needy widows
Of Atlanta without a special act by
the General Assembly.
THE present charter does not give
the Council authority TO spend any
Of the ctty's income in that way"
he said. The extension Of the pen
sion system can be made only by the
Legislature and the Governor"
This legal ruling interferes with
the plan Of officers Of the Associated
Charities who expected to immediate
ly urge such a pension system before
the finance committee Of Council
The finance committee meets We'd
