PUTS
HONOR BEFORE
PLATFORM
Says Party Pledge Can Not In
terfere With international
Obligation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-That a
platform pledge can not interfere with
the settlement of an international
question involving a point of honor
was the declaration made to-day by
President Wilson in making clear his
attitude regarding Panama Canal tolls
and the Democratic platform plank
which declared in favor of sthe ex-
, emption of American coastwse ships
from the payment Of tolls. His posi-
ton is firmly fixed against the ex-
emption.
President Wilson indicated that in
an International question involving a
treaty obligation and point OF ma
tional honor, party platform decla-
ration can not be binding when op-
posed by other considerations.
The President told his callers that
a change of circumstances over
which the United States has no con-
troll had changed the situation since
the Baltimore platform was adopted.
This declaration is interpreted to
mean that the British protest has as
sumed new phase.
President Wilson said, however,
that he has not discussed the Panama
tpilo putSllOH WITH llS bIlllSD All
bassador, Sir Arthur Cecil Spring
Rice, and has not taken up the ques-
ton with the British Government
since James Bryce left Washington.
The President stated that he had no
present plans of sending a message
to Congress on the subject, believing
that the announcement of his atti-
tude would be sufficient to get &C
ton repeating the exemption at the
present session of Congress.
There is no question that Presi-
dent Wilson regards the Panama tolls
question as interrelated with the va
rious foreign entanglements in which
the United States now finds herself,
and that he IS anxious to clear up the
question before pressing the others
for final solution

Bulgar Minister
Thanks u. s. For
Aid to STARRING

LONDON. Feb. .9.-M. J. Nadia
rolf, Bulgarian Minister to the Cour
of St James, to-day, in behalf Of tn
nation, expressed CRATE
full thanks 10 the American peopl
for the splendid help being accordet
the suffering refugees in the Bal
kans. He said:
None can overestimate our
thanks, but it is hard for us to
express them. We Bulgarians
are at once a very poor and a
very proud people We are
deeply conscious of the needs of
our suffering brethren, and our
hearts are full of thanks to the
kind, generous-hearted people
who have stepped forward in
their relief, We find It difficult
TO put these feelings into
words. Among us there is al
ways an awful dread of being
mistaken for public beggars.
would like to make Ameri-
cans understand that we are
undergoing merely temporary
misfortune, which we hope to
rise above in very short time.
In the meantime, thousands Of
our people are undergoing the
most dreadful destitution. For
what America is doing for these
please accept my heartfelt
thanks. would like to say
that our Government hopes to
do all possible in the shortest
time to set our people on
proper basis once more.
Very soon now the Agricul-
tural Bank, which is State insti-
tuition. will have available sum
OF from three to four millions Of
francs which will be loaned to
agriculturists for the purpose Of
purchasing farming implements
and seed for crops as well as for
building materials.
We only want to see one good
harvest. After that we will be
able to find ourselves. More
over, throughout the country,
even in the smaller villages, col
lections are being made. Those
WHO nave iuOnty are Cubtllully
giving a substantial proportion
to aid their less fortunate
brethren.
1t is the next two or three
months that matter with us.
During this time we must keep
alive the thousands of starving
refugees. The best idea Of our
plight can be given by stating
that most of the schools in our
capital, sofia, are still given up
to protect the destitute suffer
ers from the weather. The
pupils have been temporarily
put aside until these unfortu-
mates have been taken care Of.

ATLANTA CHURCHES HELP
BULGARIAN SUFFERERS;
FUND GROWING STEAD|LY

Strong appeals spoken from the
pulpits of Atlantas churches brought
a substantial addition to The Geor-
gian's relief fund for the Bulgarian
war sufferers Not all of the church
es had reported Monday the amount
collected. so the total collections had
to be estimated, but the response by
the majority of the congregations was
sufficiently liberal to insure Atlanta a
place Of prominence among the six
cities Of the United states that united
in making a generous contribution
for the aid of the war-ridden dis
trict.
While collections were being taken
in Atlanta churches for the half
million refugees appeals were being
made in New York. Boston, Chicago,
Los Angeles and San Francisco. In
those cities there was likewise
hearty. sympathetic response.
The collections will be forwarded
to the national headquarters of the
Red Cross Society in Washington ana

Grace Methodist Church was the
first TO report Monday. Dr. G. o.
Jones, the pastor. notified The Geor-
gian that $16.75 had been contributed
at his church.
The second check to reach The
Georgian was that Of the Hapeville
Methodist Church. It was for $17S5
and was collected at the morning
service by the Rev. /. w. Rivers,
pastor.

This is a positive call on the sym
pathies of the American people said
DR.. Jones in making his appeal. Cen
eral Sherman was right in his ia
nous remark about war. The truth
of the saying was sadly verified by
the bitter experience Of the Bulga-
rians and the refugees from the out
lying districts. The Bulgarians fought
for the principles they considered
right. They beat back the Turks, but
at a terrible cost.
AT the end of the long series OF
bloody encounters they tound them

DR.. Jones preached a special ser

topic and citing Bulgaria as a most
worthy object Of the benefactions of
the American people.
The Rev. H. NJ DuBose. OF the
First Methodist Church. reviewed the
Balkan situation from the beginning
of the wars, showing what Bulgarias
attitude had been from the outset
and how severely she had suffered in
the conflict.
Coming to the present time, DR.. Du-
Bose said that if the Bulgarians had
only themselves to care for their re-
sources might be adequate. but when
to their own sufferers there were
added tens of thousands of refugees
