MILLIONAIRE STEEL
MAN WOULD TAX
RICH TO HELP POOR
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Jan 21.-Heavy taxa
tion of large fortunes upon the death
of their owners, to aid the poor and
the establishment of government en-
ployment agencies, was advocated by
Daniel Guggenheimer in his testimony
before the Federal Industrial Rela-
tons committee, as a means of minim-
izing industrial unrest.
Mr.. Guggenheimer, who is president
of the American Smelling Company,
and very wealthy man, evidenced
much interest in the inquiry being
conducted by the commission and gave
his testimony unhesitatingly when
called upon.

Office of President Secretary and

tuition Man VIII Be Big Boss of Or.
ganized Ball in South Georgia

Hats off to Dick Jemison, new presi-
dent and boss-general of the Georgia
State league. The sport writer of the
Atlanta Constitution has been duly
elected by the directors of the league
and has accepted the position, so from
now on the Georgia State league viii
be Dick Jemison's circuit.
The directors in session here yes
terday decided that it was for the best
interests of the league to have as pres
ident a man residing in some other
city than one in the league. Imme-
diately the name of Dick Jemison was
proposed and the Atlanta newspaper
man was unanimously elected.
In order to facilitate the working of
the league, it was decided to abandon
the Office of secretary and treasurer
and give the president of the league
the authority of all three offices. This
will enable the new boss to keep his
eye on every phase of the game and
will work for the best interest of all
concerned, it is thought.
That Jemison will make rattling
good president of the league, and that
1915 is going to he a banner year for
baseball in south Georgia is the opin
ion of the directors of the league and
the fans of Americus. The league is
to be congratulated on their new pres
ident, for Mr.. Jefison is a thorough
baseball man and a sport to the bone.

Americus warenousemen are still

there is no indication of any marked

Mrs. C. E. Polk, who was shot to

employe of the State Sanitarium, at
Milledgeville, on Tuesday last, was re-

Americus, among other relatives in
this section. Prior to her marriage
she resided at Oglethorpe and is wide

The only explanation said to have been

that he Regretted the deed. Polk is

CHARLES BROWN
RELEASED FROM
AMERICUS PRISON
CHARGES OF CHEATING AND
SWINDLING HAD BEEN
PREFERRED,

Charles A. Brown, who STYLED him
self an auditor of accounts, etc.. was
released this morning from ar cell in
the Sumter county jail where he had
been confined for several weeks upon
charges of cheating and swindling.
preferred by the managements of ho-
tells in Americus, Albany and MouI-'
trie. Warrants in each instance had
been taken out against Brown, but the
accusations pending against him will
not be pressed now, if at all.
Brown would have been tried in the
city court here next week, and is con-
graduating himself upon the unex-
pected leniency shown him by the
people he was charged with victimiz-
ing.
Brown posed in Americus as an aud
itor of accounts and when he left six
or eight weeks ago, an unpaid board
bill of $50 or $35 at one of the hotels
here was carelessly overlooked by the
departing guest, who seemed quite
discriminating and wanted only the
best to be had.
After his departure for Opelika,
where he was arrested later, warrants
from hotel people at Albany and MouI-
trie were added to the charges pre-
ferred here. Brown was brought back
to Americus, at considerable cost to
the prosecutors in the case, and has
since been in the county Jail here. Re-
Gently the hotel people whom it is all
legged he caught for board bills de-
cided not to push the prosecution, but
rather to withdraw the warrants.
This was lucky for Brown, no doubt
as he may thus have escaped fine or
chaingang sentence had the charges
against him been sustained. At all
events he is out of the coop and has
gone his way rejoicing.

women BESIEGE
CHARITIES HERE
FOR ASSISTANCE
ANXIOUS TO WORK IF 0PPOR.
TUNITY is GIVEN THEM.

Charitable societies, notably the
Benevolent Aid Society, is receiving
numerous applications from most de-
serving ladies here, not for charity
but to be assisted in securing some
kind Of honorable employment where
by they may earn livelihood for
themselves and, in several cases, for
children dependent upon them for
bread. Mrs. E. B. Everett, president
of the Benevolent Aid Society, has
had several such pathetic appeals this
week.
In some instances, Mrs. Everett
states, the women have little children
in need of food and fuel. Two or three
have husbands who, unfortunately
are out of work and can do but little
towards keeping the wolf from the
door. In all cases, Mrs. Everett says
the applicants are entirely deserving.
Those who have applied to her ex-
press a willingness to do sewing or
fine needlework, housework, nursing,
or any work that they can accomplish.
No doubt there are many ladies in
Americus who will gladly assist these
needy women when their cases of dis
tress are made known and will offer
them employment.
One poor woman stated to Mrs.
Everett today that she had never beg
ged, and prayed that she would not be
forced to it.
One stricken family came here quite
recently from another city, and are
said to be in dire distress. Surely the
good women of Americus will rally to
the aid of Mrs. Everett and her CO.
workers in finding some employment
for these good and deserving women.
