Georgians Working
For James R. Gray
As War Secretary
Friends Hopeful That Atlanta
Man Will Be in Wilson
Cabinet.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-With the
definite elimination of Colonel Goethals
from the list of cabinet possibilities,
there is a movement among Georgians
here to cali on President elect Wilson
this afternoon at the Shoreham and
urge anew the name of James r. Gray,
editor Of The Atlanta Journal, for the
position of secretary of war.
President Wilson is known to be
very grateful TO Mr.. Gray for his warm
support in Georgia, and as the war
portfolio seems to be very much up in
the air yet. these Georgians feel that
Gray may yet land it.
Mr.. Wilson is known to have serious
ly considered the name of Mr. Gray
for the cabinet anyway, and while the
latter has no knowledge of the move
ment here in his behalf those behind it
believe a last minute appeal may win
for the Atlanta editor.

WoodWard'S Charges That City
Was Stung Will Be In
veStigated.
WORK TO START ON FIRE
AND POLICE SYSTEMS
Aldermen Vote Down Refusal
of Salary to Crematory
Inspector.

City council late today overruled
Mayor Woodward's veto of the ordi-
nance authorizing the beginning of
work on the new 100000 police and
fire alarm system by a decisive vote Of
% to /, Alderman McClenand being the
only member supporting the citys chief
executive.
In regard to the mayors singing
message covering the purchase of fire
fighting materials councils were re-
quested by the city fire masters to ap-
point a committee from the council
manic body to investigate the question
thoroughly and report to the councils
their findings. thus establishing wheth-
er or no Mayor Woodward is in the
right when he asserts Atlanta is pay
ing too much for its apparatus and
particularly it's fire hose,
The mayor was given another legal
slap when the aldermen refused his re-
quest for the money necessary to en-
ploy a crematory building inspector for
four months at 500 month. The
mayors request was voted down IA to
2, Aldermen Lynch and Ashley being
the only members to favor the mayor.
Councils alone voted upon this request.
Of interest to fight fans was the or
dinance offered councils by Councilman
c. d. Knight, who proposes a boxing
commission, composed Of the police
commissioner, two members of council
and two citizens, the latter four to be
named by the mayor This board is
empowered to issue fight permits and
regulate boxing in general throughout
Atlanta. The measure is said to be as
sured of passage.
Mayor Woodward in his veto mes
sage waxed warm with these pointed
questions:
What is the secret Of such business
methods? Why is Atlanta not getting
the benefit of such competitive prices
and rebates? The new machine for the
Tenth ward is supposed to be furnished
through the same agency. What is the
secret of all this business going through
the same channel and influence"
Disapproves Street Permit.
Mayor Woodward's message begins
with the explanation that he has dis
approved the ordinance granting a per
nit to cut twenty streets for the laying
of conduts for the alarm system be-
cause it might mean a repetition Of the
torn up conditions of streets last year,
Stating that the alarm contract is
