F OES Of
NATION
Atlanta Banker Wants State and
Interstate Commerce Com
missions Abolished.

Georgia and Fulton County would
be better off to-day if the Railroad
Commission and the Interstate Com
merce Commission at Washington
were abolished. declared Colonel Will
liam L. Peel president of the Ameri-
can National Bank and well-known
financier Of Atlanta.
Colonel Peel, who keeps in close
touch with national political as well
as financial affairs, believes the State
Railroad Commissions and the Inter-
state Commerce Commission are him
dering the progress of the State and
nation by curbing the railroads.
The railroads should be let alone,
he says, and allowed to develop the
State and country as they deserve
to be developed.
100 Much Legislation"
There is too much legislation, too
many laws, too much interfering with
the railroads" said Colonel Peel, In
speaking Of the matter Friday morn
ing. in my opinion, we would get
along better II the State Railroad
Commission and the Interstate Com
mission were abolished. It's all poll
tics, anyhow.
THE railroads. particularly, should
be let alone and allowed to develop
normally. Under the present condition
of things the railroads hesitate to
pursue development. and as a conse-
quence things are practically at a
standstil' along this line. In fact,
there is absolutely no large railroad
construction going on"
Legislature Conservative"
In commenting on matters pertain
ing 70 Georgia, Colonel Peel said he
believed the coming Legislature had
seen the handwriting on the wall, and
would be one of the most conserva-
tive in the history Of the State. This
conservatism, he declared. is abso-
utely essential, for the State is badly
in debt and the only relief is a curb
ing Of appropriations. The State owes
$500 900 now on its school mainte-
nance, according to Colonel Peel
Despite these things. however, Col.
Peel says locally things are in good
shape financially. There is a good
demand for money and continuation
of prosperous times is in store for
Atlanta.

Better Kill Grass
Than Boys AstOr

NEW YORK, June 2o.-'Tt is far
better to have dead grass in the parks
than dead children in the tenements"
This was Vincent Astor's reply to
criticisms Of use of Central Park
greens by the public.
Mr. Astor is an officer Of the Pub
lie School Athletic League. 1.-THE
parks are for the benefit of the peo-
pie after ALL" he said, and the boys
had a perfect right to use the green.
BY giving schoolboys a greater lik-
ing for QUITO door exercise the league
is making drinking. smoking and 9TH

Commissioner Says Many Packing
Houses Are in Awful Condition.
Wants Bigger Force,

Slaughter and packing house con-
ditions in Georgia are horrible in
many instances" said Commissioner
o. Agriculture J. ]. Connors Friday
morning when commenting upon the
hearing of charges against Swift &
Co.'S Americas agency Thursday
THE pure food department is MAX
ing every effort to prevent the offer
ing of bad meats for sale and will
strenuously prosecute every violation
I'VE are badly handicapped, how
ever. on account of the few men we
have. We should have at least half a
dozen additional inspectors. Inspector
Methvin has done splendid work.
In my report I am recommending
that an additional appropriation be
made for carrying on the work. This
could be taken out of the earnings of
the department
In one place near Marietta Mr..
Methvin discovered conditions too
horrible TO relate. In other places
conditions nearly as bad have been
reported. The people of Georgia
should have pure meats and I sin
cerely trust the Legislature will see
the wisdom of increasing the appro-
priation"
While no other cases are booked
for a hearing before Commissioner
Connors, close tab is being kept on
several places by Inspector Methvin
and a second finding Of bad condi-
tions will be followed by prosecution.

FRANK TRIAL
WILL NOT
Be LONG
D Ne
Few Witnesses of the Scores Ex-
amined Will Be Called When
Case Is Heard.

That the trial of Leo NJ. Frank will
take a much shorter time than is
generally thought was indicated in a
statement by Judge L. S. Roam. The
judge said the greatest difficulty and
almost as great a length of time
would be consumed in drawing a jury
as in the hearing of the case He
said the actual taking Of evidence
might not consume more than a day
Judge Roam intimated that he ex-
pected neither side to introduce the
scores Of witnesses who had been ex-
amined and made affidavits, but that
from these witnesses the State and
the defense would select the most
material evidence, or salient points,
and then introduce the most reliable
witness who could cover the ground
For instance, eight or ten different
persons might be able to testify on
some different minor points. while
there would be one witness who could
testify to the same thing the differ
ent witnesses could. This witness. he
thought, would be the one to go on
the stand, and the others would not
be summoned.
AffidaVits Are Plentiful.
As a matter of fact, it is known
that only a comparatively small num-
Der of the witnesses examined by the
Solicitor will be introduced at the
trial. In the course of his investiga-
ton he secured an affidavit from al
most every employee Of the pencil
factory. While he questioned them
closely and had each sign an affida-
Wit he found little that threw any
new light on the case. He examined
them. he said, to be sure that he
would overlook nothing that might
have been missed at the Coroner's in
quest or by the police.
Only a very few of these witnesses
knew anything that could be used at
the trial. he said, and it was very
doustful whether they would lie
called.
Scores Were Questioned.
Other witnesses by the score were
brought to the Solicitors office as
result of the wild rumors connecting
with the crime women who had seen
Mary Phagan at various times during
the day. The result Of these afiidavits
was only to establish the fact that
they knew nothing of the crime, and
in the greater number of instances
they did not know Mary Phagan.
When the Solicitor returns to the
city Saturday or Sunday, he win an
nounce definitely whether he will go
to trial June 80, and If It is decided
to do so, a jury will be drawn and
subpenaes will be issued for wit
nesses. The defense will in all prob
ability summon its own witnesses,
although each side will have to ac-
quaint the other with the names be-
fore the case goes to trial

Beavers Tells Police to Follow
Girls Into CIubs-TeIIs of
Complaints.

Chief Of Police Beavers inaugurated
a war on all of the locker clubs of the
city Friday which are selling liquor to
boys and girls under age or are in
any way violating the locker club reg
ulations The crusade is especially
designed to keep young girls out Of
the locker clubs.
Chief Beavers action followed in
structions from the Grand Jury Fri
day morning ordering the police de-
partment TO clean the city Of all its
Migrants. loafers and other persons
OF evil repute. Il was the sentiment
Of the Grand Jury that the presence
Of this class OF people constituted a
constant menace to the welfare Of the
city and very probably was largely to
blame for the wave of crime which
has swept Atlanta in the last few
weeks.
The Chief made II plain that the
police would continue their campaign
against the clubs until the vicious
practices Of which many citizens have
complained to the department have
been wiped out. He declared that he
had received scores of complaints
which related that boys and girls Of
tender years had been seen lntoxi-
Gated in many Of the clubs Of the city.
Here is the Chiefs order as it was
given to every policeman on the
force:
Illegal Sales Must Stop.
The officers and members OF
the force are instructed to keep
a close watch on the locker clubs
in the city where there is reason
to suspect that boys and girls are
allowed to congregate and drink
intoxicants illegally, and make
cases when sufficient evidence
can be obtained
JAMES L. BEAVERS,
Chief of Police.
"This illegal sale of liquor must
stop" said the Chief in discussing his
order.
Drastic Action Needed.
THE sale of liquor to persons not
members of the clubs is bad enough.
but when it comes to selling girls that
are hardly out Of short dresses, it
has reached a stage when l feel that
the most drastic action is warranted
by my department.
Il have told the policemen that
when they see young girls going into
the clubs that it is sufficient warrant
for them to go inside and make an
investigation. There is to be no tenn
porizing and no handling of the situa-
ton with gloves. We are simply de-
termined to wipe out this practice,
which probably is leading scores of
girls yearly into immoral lives. and
we are going about it at once with
out any more warning to those who
are engaged in the business.
THE locker clubs must obey the
law to the very letter If they do
not, their cases will be called to the
attention of the police committee, and
the permits most likely will be re-
voked,"
