says that the West End has far out
grown the Walker line, and that an
other line should be built out Sells
and Greensferry avenues. After al

OPPOSES
BONDISSUEFOR
SCHOOLS
Favors Yearly Appropriation, Say
ing Plaza and Grady Projects
Should Come First.

Mayor Woodward Friday offered
what he considered more feasible
scheme for the betterment Of Allan
ta's school system than the issuance
Of 81, 500, 900 in bonds, as proposed by
Commissioner Dan Green. The May
or claimed 1t would be better to pro-
vide SIS, 900 every year for the erec-
ton Of one or more schools, and that
at the end of five years the schools
would be adequate to take care Of the
growth of the city.
The Mayor took the stand that the
taxpayers had become prejudiced over
the manner In which the last bond
issue was expended, and in a con-
suitation Thursday afternoon with
Commissioner Green, said he would
not approve another school bond is
sue He said he did not want to
jeopardize the chance Of getting the
voters. to sanction $2,000,000 for the
plaza project and $4,000 for inn
provements to the Grady Hospital
Green Defers Action.
3 Because of his failure in securing
the Mayors approval Of his PROPOSE
ton, Commissioner Green did not
bring the question to the attention Of
the school board Thursday afternoon,

more opportune time, when the peo-
pie had a more comprehensive under
standing of the deplorable conditions
of the schools
IF the people can be induced to
vote for the Grady Hospital bonds,
they can also be- persuaded to vote
money for the betterment of our
schools" said the commissioner.
Mayor Woodward has placed him-
self squarely behind the plaza bond
issue, and has approved of the Grady
Hospital bond project. His support
OF the plaza proposition was brought
about through the pledges Of the
property owners that they would
create a sinking fund, through In
creased assessments on their prop
erty, sufficient to retire the bonds as
we'll as meet the interest.
Plaza Improvement Necessary.
Mayor Woodward stated that he
would make speeches throughout the
city. II necessary, 70 float the plaza
bonds, as he considered that propo-
ment Of the city.
Though he has given his approval
to the Grady Hospital bond PROPOSE
ton, he said he would not enter the
campaign. He felt that the scheme
was worthy of the peoples support,
because, like the plaza proposition,
the Grady Hospital trustees pro-
posed to erect building to take
care of pay patients, and the revenue
derived from this would create q
similar fund to meet the bonds and
interest.
He said there would be no burden

LEAGUES TO ASSASSINATE
THE KING.

Rome, June 2s.--The government
is making an effort to get hold of
Enrico Malatesta the notorious
anarchist. who was the originator of
the recent revolt at Ancona. which
almost led to political revolution.
There was not sufficient evidence in

Wet Malatesta of treason. so a search
was made of his house for incrimi-
mating documents. The police found
lot of correspondence which prove ]
that Malatesta was the organizer of
the recent Instruction.
Some OF the letters were from
anarchists in America. They sug-
gested that Malatesta return to Italy
and assassinate the king. There
were also numerous receipts for
money orders from anarchists abroad,
especially in America
Malatesta was warned Of the gov
eminent $ plans in the nick OF time
and fed He had no time to destroy
anything in the way OF discriminating
documents. The police do not be-
iieve that he has yet left italy and
are watching all the seaports. They
are also making q close search of the
country for the missing anarchist
Even II Malatesta is not arrested, he
may be tried and convicted in his
absence. and In that case foreign
countries would be notified to expei
him as a dangerous anarchist He
has already been expelled from
