AMERICUS Still
MAINTAINING BEST
HEALTH RECORDS

For city of the size and popula-
ton of Americas, the fact that not a
single case of infectious disease of
any nature whatever exists here is
rather remarkable. Such, however, is
the statement of Dr. ]. w. Chambliss,
city physician and chairman of the
Board Of Health, made this morning.
There is not even a case of diphtheria,
malady generally prevalent at this
season. Americus always shows a
clean bill of health, fact attributed
to the vigilance of DR.. Chambliss, as
well as to ideal conditions generally
prevailing. The sanitary condition Of
the city is excellent at all times, and
there is no local cause for sickness of
any infectious nature here.

GERMANY WILL
TRY To KEEP
ITALY FROMJO|N
INC THE ALLIES
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec. 5.-Italy's attitude
toward the war again became a source
of concern today in view of Premier
Salandras declaration that his coun-
try was not bound to fight with Ger
many and Austria, and his intimation
that Italy has remained loyal to all
treaty obligations. Early develop
ments may lead to disclosure of the
text of the triple alliance agreement,
by the Italian government.
The appointment Of Prince Won Beu-
low, former imperial chancellor, as
temporary head of the German en-
bassy at Rome, is interpreted here to
mean that Germany is preparing to ex-
ert strong pressure to prevent Italy
joining the Allies.
The newest war phase indicated by
today's dispatches is heavy fighting in
Alsace, where French troops have sue
ceeded in maintaining a foothold on
German territory since the opening OF
hostilities.

CHICAGO COPS
ARE INDICTED
BY GRAND JURY
(By Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-The grand jury
today indicted Captain Halpin and
Lieutenant Tobin, of the Chicago po-
lice force, together with former Detec-
tive O'Brien on a charge of bribery
and conspiracy to obtain money fraud
ulently. 1t is alleged that the indict-
ment comes as the result of recent
graft confessions forced from mem
bers of the police force by the police
commission.
1t is understood that the police cap
tain and his lieutenant were the head
of a combination that exacted pay
ments from the gamblers and women
of the restricted district for police pro-
lection.
A campaign for a cleaner and better
Chicago has been waged for some time
and the indictment of these policemen
makes < quite plain to Chicago law
breakers that those behind the cam
paign mean business.
