many people in a good many coun-

3UILDINGTRADES
PLANFIGHT ON
OPEN SHOP

A fight against the open shop in the
building trades section Of the FEEDER
alton of Labor that promises to be
the hardest in the history Of organ
lied labor in Atlanta will be the out
come of the strike on the Healey
Building unless a settlement is
reached shortly.
International officers representing
the fourteen organizations composing
the Building Trades Council are either
in Atlanta or on their way here. A
meeting of the Building Trades Coun-
ell will be held Friday night, when
steps looking to a settlement of the
differences or to arrange for finish
eight will be taken.
officers Of the building trades con-
cerned in the controversy state that
wages in Atlanta c~e 80 per cent lower
than in other Southern cities, and
they attribute this to the fact that in
Atlanta alone is the open shop per
nitted.
The open shop as operated in Al
ianta. according to the officers Of the
building trades. is that only that class
of work requiring the greatest skill
and which can alone be done by mem
bers of the organization is done oy
union men, while all other work is
put in the hands of non-union men.
In this way. the results to the con
tractor can be attained and the unions
get the worst of It.
The strike precipitated by the con
tractors putting non-union men work
ing on the cutting of the pipe for the
electrical contract will mean a finish
fight between the Building Trades
Council and the contractors against
the open shop. and may tie up WORK
in Atlanta for some time.

CRAWFORD'S
SANITY NOW
ATTACKED
Expert Declares Capitalist Was
Not in His Right Mind When
He Married.

That Joshua B. Crawford was in
sane az the time he married Mrs Mary
Belle Crawford and had been entirely
irres ponsible for several months prior
to that time, was the testimony Of
DR. r, r. HINES expert on insanity
and abdominal surgery, introduced by
Attorney Joe S. James Friday morn
ing in his effort to have the marriage
annulled and the s250.OOO estate re-
vert to the heirs law.
DR.. Hines rendered his opinion in
reply TO a long hypothetical question
and was excused without crOss-ex-
animation.
During the taking Of testimony an
other clash in the courtroom was mar.
rowly averted George w. Bolden, a
character witness for Mrs Crawford
threatened to thrash Attorney James
unless he apologized for what the
witness considered an insulting ques-
ton. Colonel James declined to apol-
ogize and order was only restored
when Colonel Anderson ordered the
witness from the stand, and he was
escorted from the courtroom by the
lawyers.
How do you know that Mrs. Craw-
ford is lady?" Intercepted Attorney
James.
Lawyers in War of Words.
Il demand that you apologize i'm
mediately for asking such a question"
exclaimed Bolden.
Il will not apologize I do not in
tend to take back anything that !
say"
You will take it back or l will
make you. if / have to beat you to
do It,"
You are at liberty to try that at
any time you see fit"
Colonel Anderson. who had raped
several times for order, stepped be-
tween the attorney and the witness
just as the latter got from his seat
and started toward the attorney
The Crawford heirs-at-law got to
their feet and rushed to aid their at
torney. Reuben Arnold stepped be
tween them and with Colonel Ander-
son helped escort the witness from
the room.
Anxious to Tell All
Mrs. Crawford was anxious to go
on the stand Friday and see the evil
dence from her side Of the case go
into the minutes of the hearing.
Il want to tell everything l know
about the affair when I go on the
stand" she said. THE other side has
had everything it's way so far, be-
cause all Of the witnesses were for
the heirs -at-law. It will be altogeth-
er a different story when Mr.. Arnold
and Mr. Smith introduce the wit
nesses we have. It viii then be con-
clusively proved that there was moth
ing irregular anywhere except the
groundless accusations that have been
made against me-"
Attorney James said Friday morn
ing that he had been entirely too busy
to take any official action toward
having Fred Lump the New YorI
barber who is charged with being an
accessory in the alleged poisoning,
brought back to Atlanta
Il will then get him back here in
plenty Of time II he remains in Amer
lea" said Attorney James. He would
be OF no particular use in this civil
hearing, and that was why l didn't
take steps earlier to get him back
AT the first opportunity l will ask
the Governor TO give me requisition
papers, and will send d deputy to
New York for him"

DENIED BY
JUDGE
Apologies Also to Porcine Family
for Likening Woodward's Legal
knowledge to Theirs.

Recorder Nash Broyles penned
"a polite note of apology to the
whole hog family Friday.
With the same hand he picked
up the cudgels with which again
to belabor his honor, Mayor
Woodward.
The Mayor, quoth the record
err, was the author of a ridiculous
and absurd falsehood and it was
a reerettable libel upon Mr.Hog
to have to submit to a compari-
son with Atlanta 5 Mayor.
As for the Mayor, he declared he
was tired Of wasting verbiage on the
Recorder and that he would have
nothing more to say in their quarrel.
He intimated, however. that he had II
in his mind to override the Recorder
again by pardoning another prisoner
Here are Recorder Broyles' com
ments on the Mayor:
Apologies to Poroins Family.
Il care nothing for the Mayors
abuse. Condemnation from such a.
character should be considered praise.
But when he says that he Court Of
Appeals on May 23, 1918, reversed ME
In ten cases and sustained me in sew
en-, he tells such ridiculous and alb
surd falsehood that l now apologize
to the hog to which I referred yes
terday when I said the Mayor knew
less about law than a hog does about
political economy
The idea OF the Court of Appeals
passing one day upon seventeen cases
appealed from the Recorders Court
of Atlanta.
The records of that court will
show that on an average there are
not seventeen cases a year carried to
the Court Of Appeals, and they will
also snow that that court has sus-
tained me in ten cases where it has
reversed me in one.
sees Attempt to Evade Issue.
But the Mayor is, as usual. trying
to sidetrack the issue between us.
That issue is not my ability as a
lawyer or judge. am content 10
let my record speak Tor me. but the
issue is that the Mayor is protect.
Ing and pardoaing the habitual and
confirmed criminals of our CITY. is
obstructing and defeating justice in
our courts and impeding the officers
of the law in their attempt to check
crime in our city.
And this is the issue on which the
people at the next election will call
him to account"
Mayor Woodward retorted that he
had concluded his comments on Re-.
oorder Broyles, but that he practically
had decided again to overrule the Re
corder and issue another pardon.
Plans to Give New Pardon.
The situation is possible only be-
cause Judge Broyles made a mis-
take and imposed a sentence of 80
instead Of 20 days, which puts the
case in the jurisdiction OF the Mayor
G. Poulus, who runs a restaurant
on Alabama street, was fined 500 and
sentenced to 80 days in the stockade.
The story that has reached Mayor
Woodward is that Poulus discharged
a negro boy and that the negro boy.
being angry, reported Poulus TO the
police as selling beer. Poulos says
he only orders beer from adjoining
saloons and keeps it in his ice box for
his customers.
