LONDON, Nov. 30.-An invasion by
the allies is feared by Germany, ac-
cording to a dispatch from Copenhag-
en-, which reports that extensive prep
arations are being made to guard
against such an sventuality

LIGHT VOTE EXPECTED
IN WAYCROSS PRIMARY
Voters of South Georgia City To
Elect City Recorder Registration
Tops Nine Hundred Already.

WAYCROSS, Ca, Nov. 3O.-Way-
cross has set the stage for the 1914
political rase, which comes to an end
with the city primary scheduled for
Wednesday, December 2. While the
primary this year lacks the interest al
ways found when a mayor is nomi-
mated, the fact that voters for the
first time will select a city recorder
has caused more interest to be taken
in the approaching primary.
Owing to the very light registration
it is doubtful if more than $50 votes
will be polled. The registration is
little under 900.
Only in one ward is there no con-
test. Charles L. Mordan, conductor
of the Atlantic Coast Line enjoys the
distinction of having no opposition.
Alderman Fred Brewer, who has re-
presented the second ward for two
terms, could not seek reelection be-
cause the city charter has a provision
preventing an alderman serving more
than two successive terms.
In the first ward Alderman ]. A.
Lott is opposed by I. w. Odum, well
known business man. Alderman Lott
is completing his second year, al
though he had seen previous service
as an alderman. In the fifth the
race is three-cornered, with T. B.
Miller, L. r. Bailey and Lloyd War
rem the candidates. Alderman al
len S. Morton, the incumbent, retired
in January after serving one term.
For city recorder there are three
candidates. Andrew B. Estes, the
incumbent, is opposed by James E.
English and F. w. Paradise For
members of the city board of educa-
ton five prominent citizens seek three
positions. They are V. L. Stanton,
DR.. j. L. Walker, John w. Bennett,
the incumbents, and DR.. r. P. Izlar
and Dr. w. H. Buchanan. The plur-
ality rule will govern the primary,
which will be conducted under a semi
Australian ballot system.

DUST Of GOVERNOR EARLY
WILL Be MOVED TOMORROW
Simple Ceremony VIII Mark Inter-
ment Tomorrow Morning at Green's
bOrO, Ga
Especial to Times-Recorder)

ATHENS, Ga, Nov. 30.-The grave
of Peter Early, governor of the state
Of Georgia, who died in 1917 tomorrow
morning will be removed to the pri-
vate cemetery on the farm of Griffith
Brothers in the upper corner of Green
county to Greensboro, where a place
has been prepared for the historic
dust, and where it will be taken care
of. A suitable monument will, in
time, be erected over it.
This was finally decided last night
by Judge George Hillyer, of Atlanta,
who for the descendants of the early
governor, has had in mind the reno
val of the grave for some months.
1t was planned first to move the
grave to Athens, where the governors
sister was buried in the early part of
the last century, and there the group
of the educational institutions of the
state lent an appropriateness to the
site for historic value to the state,
but Greene county people passed reso-
lutions, grand jurors took action, and
determined effort won for Green's
boro over Athens.
A party from Atlanta and one from
Athens will attend the simple exer-
cises Of the removal of the grave made
nearly hundred years ago.

East and South Coasts Of England
Speedily Put Into Condition to Re-
pei Attack-Rifle Clubs Are Organ
lied by Civilians.

LONDON, Nov. 30.-England is pre-
pairing rapidly to repeI any possible
invasion by Germany. Along the east
and South coasts of England these
preparations begun some time ago are
being pushed forward as speedily as
possible. The work is chiefly in the
hands of civilians.
Emergency committees of prominent
citizens have been formed in several
of the large towns. The principal
measures already planned look to the
safe withdrawal of women and chill
dren from the areas which may be
threatened and also the removal of
livestock and provisions which would
be useful to an invading army, the de-
struction of grain and other commod-
tiles which cannot be removed, and
the blocking of roads and destruction
Of bridges.
Rifle clubs are being organized. The
war office has decided to recognize
these clubs, many of which are now
drilling. Only those who are ineligible
for service as regular soldiers or ter
ritorials may belong to such organiza-
tons. Members are required to furn-
ish their own equipment.

MINISTER OPENS
ATLANTA CHURCH
To FORTUNATE
NOBEL ACT OF DIR. JOHN Z. WHITE
SH0ULDE BE COMMENDED
BY GEORGIA PEOPLE.
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 30-Dr John E.
White pastor of the Second Baptist
church, found himself in a little stew
with the Atlanta Associated Charities
this week, because of his proposal to
put cots in his church and to furnish
free beds and hot coffee for unem-
plcEed persons who may be without
homes, or home connection.
No sooner had DR.. White made on
nouncement of his purpose than one
of the officials of the Associated Char
tiles came out with a statement that
the city ought not to allow such a
plan to be put into effect
1t was stated that if the newspapers
published such information the result
would be to bring hoboes and tramps
into the city in droves.
There followed a controversy be-
tween DR.. White and the charities or
ganization in which the latter finally
modified its views and DR.. White in
sisted that he proposed to go on with
his plans as outlined.
He says he believes it is the duty OF
the churches in all cities to show some
regard and consideration for human
suffering and he proposes to keep his
church open in cold weather to those
who need such attention and care to
avail themselves of it.
The Second Baptist is the first Of
the Atlanta churches to announce ant
inaugurate this plan and if it is found
