This decision on the part OF Mrs.
Carnegie ends the long night by the
Georgia division OF the Daughters OF
the American Revolution against the
removal Of the body OF the revolu-
Uonary cavalier. General Lee died IN
Cumberland and his body was buried
there. And there Il has remained for
more than century. The grave has
been carefully tended BY each success
sive owner OF the land.
year ago the Virginia Legislature
named committee and appropriated
$500 70 defray the expenses OF rs-
moving the body from its present rest
ing place 20 the Lee burial ground at
Lexington. Va. IL was not presu med
at that time that there would be any
objection 20 the transfer. IL was the
object OF the Virginia Legislature 20
gather together the dust OF all the
family OF Lees and 20 bury them to-
gcther In one spot
But the Georgia division OF the
Daughters OF the American Revolu-
ton opposed the removal from the
frst. At It's meetings IN Marietta last
spring resolutions were adopted pro-
testing the removal on the ground
that since the remains had rested in
Georgia soil so long II would be an
act OF desecratlOn 20 disturb them al
this late day. The movement was
headed by Mrs. J. II. Redding. OF the
Waycross Chapter. who got up a pc

IMPROVE CONDITIONS OF

WASHINGTON. d. c. Special
Senator knute Nelson introduced a
bill Wednesday which he believes viii
90 tardy justice 20 the 1000 railway

The men who sort and separate the
malls with lightning rapidlty while
speeding ia all directions over the
country are the only persons in the

ment when they are III.
In other words. the railway mail

The bin of Senator Nelson provides
\ for an annual leave for not exceed

I period OF departmental vacation De-
thirty days. The railway mail clerks
/ work on minimum OF 2,240 hours
per annum.
Many OF them work more hours
. than this. and some work less. s,
there are some officials who think thai
the annual leave should be based or
"A maximum and minimum basis and
would submit another proposition Ia
lieu OF Senator Nelson's bill.
They would allow one days leave OF
every eight hours OF service performed
In excess OF the z.240 hours OF mini
mum work. and those who do no
come up 10 the standard would no
get any leave. This provision did no
suit Senator Nelson. who thinks al
OF the men should have some sort o
