GERMANS SEEK To
ESCAPE FROM
ENGLAND
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Nov. 10.-Great Britain s
now rigorous roundup of Germans
and Austrians within her dominions
caused a rush to the home office OF
those who by virtue of advanced age
sex or other disqualification for mil
itary service, are allowed to go to the
Fatherland through reciprocal ar
engagements for transfer of a like
number of British men and women. 1t
is stated that within the last few
weeks two thousand German and Aus
trian women and twelve hundred men
left this country.
At the outbreak of the war many
Germans and Austrians deluged the
authorities with applications for nat
uralization papers. The number SEEK
ing British citizenship has been plac-
ed at 10000; yet fewer than TWEEN
ty applications have been granted.
Between eight and ten thousand Ger
mans and Austrian re under arrest
and in detention camps-aI taken
from Greater London. Hundreds of
others are yet to be arrested Only
this week there was a brief respite in
the roundup due to the fact that there
were not enough adequate detention
camps. The agitation is not over,
however; daily the newspapers are
urging the authorities to more action.
The exclusive German clubs are I'M
der surveillance; buildings built by
or known to have been recently occu-
pied by Germans are being watched,
and great precautions are being TAX
en- to guard the vaults of the stock
exchange. There are so many German
firms using the strong boxes of the ex-
change that every member entering
the rooms is searched for bombs or
other explosives.

music new to northern ears the strains

Flow Jordan, Flow" sung by thirty
negro convicts in stripes. The negroes
were working a stretch of Fulton
county road as one of the exhibits of
the local committee, and the delegates
paid visit to the job.
The negroes, too, had an unexpected
treat, for L. w. Page, of Washington,
president of the American Highways
association, was so struck with their
melodies that he dug up dollar each
for the thirty singers Then the visit
ors were given a sight of a bloodhound
chase, one of the trained dogs trailing
a negro and running him up tree.

Wilson Doubts That
Troops We're Landed
(By Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1O.-The
state and navy Departments were both
without official advices today of the
reported landing of marines at Aacpu-
10, and also at Beirut Syria,
where news dispatches state bluejack-
cts had been landed for the protection
of American citizens.
President Wilson discussing the sit
uation this afternoon, expressed doubt
as to the authenticity of the report,
and informed the Associated Press that
in all probability American marines
had not been landed at either place.

AMERICUS FOLK

GARDENS ARE PRODUCING WELL
HIGH-PRICED MEAT NO BAR
RIER TO LIVING.

While meat can only be reached
with an aeroplane, the price still
lowering around the skyline, Amer
icus people, that is, the thrifty ones
who planted a fall garden, can side
step the grocery store and live we'll at
home. Recent frosts have wrought
little damage to gardens here, and a
fine dinner still can be secured there
from. Then, too, new syrup is album
dant and cheap, while a few pennies
purchase enough sweet potatoes to
last a week.
The sweet potato crop of south
Georgia seems to be proving a record
breaking one this season, both in quail
ity and the amount of the yield, and
every day stories are being brought in
of mammoth potatoes and of excep-
tional yields that have been made by
various growers. This is a crop that
always commands ready sale and
prices that are nearly always uniform
and the farmers of this section are
realizing what valuable one it is to
them.
The growing of fall Irish potatoes
is an industry that has grown popular
here of late and every gardener now
plants his crop of them just as he
does in the spring. With the planting
of crops both in the spring and fall
MAN. now make enough of these pota-
, toes to make one crop meet the other
and so obviate the necessity of buying
them.

ALABAMA GUARANTEE
AGAINST CATTLE DISEASE
(By Associated Press.)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 10-The
state of Alabama today declared a
quarantine against shipments of cattle
from states where foot and mouth dis
ease is known to exist. Today's order
bars the shipment of cattle both into
and out of Alabama, and is expected
to prevent importation of the disease
into the state.
Foot and mouth disease, which caus-
es an unusually high death rate among
cattle, is known to. exist in Illinois,
Iowa, Nebraska, Mississippi and its
presence in Florida is suspected by
the Alabama authorities, and as the
cattle industry in this state is just
beginning to develop into profitable
field for investment, every precaution
will be taken to prevent an outbreak
of the disease here.
Experts employed by the state de-
partment of agriculture and industries
have been sent to Florida to report
on suspected cases in that state and
the Mississippi authorities have been
asked for a statement of conditions
prevailing in that state.
