BISCUIT STILL
Higher DESPITE
WHEAT DECLINES
EIGHT DOLLAR FLOUR THE PRE-.
VAILING PRICE IN AMERICUS

The drop in wheat values yesterday
brought no relief to the man who has
to fill the family -four bin and prices of
the biscuit product are destined to re-
main for some time at the present alti-
tude, which is snugly around eight sill
yer kopeks per barrel. Americas gro
GERS interviewed today stated that a
drop of five cents per bushel in the
price of wheat in Chicago could not
possibly affect the retail price of flour
here. Brands of flour generally in de-
mand cost So per barrel now, while the
value of one or two other favorite
brands is nearly a dollar higher still.
At this rate Americas folks can get up
on a hoecake and corn muffin basis,
with cracklin' bread as a Sunday del
icacy.

CONGRESS WILL
VOTE ON EQUAL
SUFFRAGE TODAY.
RESOLUTION TO SUBMIT WOMAN'S
SUFFRAGE TO STATES AS CON-
STITUTIONAL AMENDMENT HAS
BEEN OFFERED IN CONGRESS-
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 12.-Wo-
mans campaign for the ballot reached
climax i'm the house today when a
special rule was passed which brings
up for immediate action a resolution
to submit woman's suffrage to the
states as a constitutional amendment
Friends and foes of the measure are
organized for the fight and a lively
time is expected.
On motion by Congressman Henry,
of Texas, a special rule was passed
which advanced the proposed measure
on the calendar, so that it could be
considered Immediately. This assures
vote on the measure within a few
hours. 1t is predicted that yea and
nay vote will be taken before night.
The resolution before the house, pro-
posed by Congressman Mondell would
submit to the states for approval a
constitutional amendment which for
bids the denial of franchise on account
of sex. 1t is necessary that a two
thirds vote be cast for the measure
before it can be submitted to the
states. Friends of the measure are
sanguine It's opponents are confident
that the two-thirds vote will be cast
against the measure and not for it.

CONDITIONS ARE
GETTING BETTER
ABOUT AMERICAS
SPIRIT OF OPTIMISM IS MUCH IN
EVIDENCES IN SOUTH
GEORGIA

In Americas, as in other south Geor-
gia cities, there is -eWdence of business
and general improvement daily, and
the spirit of optimism prevails to a
greater degree than at any time within
the past three months. People are
facing conditions bravely and deter
minedly, and they are going to work
again along that line. Economy and
hard work is going to be the watch
word, and such slogan is always GER
tain to win.
While money is not plentiful by any
means, there is some of it in evidence
and the volume is going to increase.
Cotton is advancing in price, and the
sale of the large stocks held in Amer
icus would add just one million dollars
to the circulating medium here.
Not only in Americas, but through
out the county and section much cot
ton remains to be sold, and the sale
of this will help conditions greatly.
Just now the volume of travel to Amer
icus is increasing perceptibly, and the
scores of travelling men who make
Americas" every day are the best
barometers of business conditions the
country over. And the drummer boys
are cheerful; they all declare that bus
mess is picking up, and conditions
growing brighter every day. And the
bankers and business men here con-
cur in that opinion.
An Albanian, at the Windsor Hotel
this morning, spoke enthusiastically
regarding the business prospect in
this section. He had recently visited
Valdosta, MOultrie, Thomasville, AL
bany, Dawson and other south Georgia
towns, and found the merchants and
farmers and others, busy in prepara-
ton for a big year of endeavor. And
Americas is going to be in the front
ranks of this advancing column of
progressive Georgia cities.
Sunshine is coming back to the
Southland; our farmers will make a
crop; business will improve, and while
the outlook at the beginning Of 1915
was not roseate altogether, it is going
to be year of prosperity, notwith-
standing.

Americas, along with the balance OF

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. 1.-THE

prohibition forces in control, and the
big fight Of the session promising to
center about that issue. At present
only four counties, Montgomery, JEFF

pass a dry" measure over his veto.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 12-Pres-
ident Wilson today declared to repre-
sentatives of the Associated Press that
he was not thinking of announcing his
candidacy in 1916 when he stated IN
his Indianapolis speech that the peo-
pie Of the United States would have a
chance to judge his acts. He explained
that what he did mean was that future
generations would have a chance to
pass on his acts as president.
The president refused positively to
discuss the possibility of his name be-
ing offered by the democratic party in
1916. To every question PROFOUND
ed him he only smiled and turned the
question into other channels. Even
the reference to the plank in the Bal
timore platform endorsing one term
for president failed to bring forth
comment from the Democratic sphinx.
Despite the silence of President Will
son, political prophets here are posi-
tive that Woodrow Wilson will be the
standard-bea in 1916 Time will
tell, they all say. The democrats will
demand that he run, and Wilson will
be the 1916 candidate.

PetrOgrad Announces That Germans

ViStula- Seem to Be Wait
ing For Spring to Come Weather
Causes Great Suffering.
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Jan. 12.-Today witnessed
no change of Importance in either
theatre of European hostilities, both
armies combining their activities to ar
tillery duels at long range and sap
ping operations. The alignment of
forces in the west seems to be the same
today as on January first when fighting
around Newport and Ypres was aban-
doned by the Germans, and the Allies
in that vicinity failed to push their at
tempt to occupy the loNlands of Elan
ders.
The disposition of both armies ap-
pears to be to await spring before
resuming active operations again. The
troops now at the front are firmly en-
trenched, and neither side has yet been
able to make Roadway against the
enemy. Meanwhile England continues
to pour fresh troops into France at
the rate of thousands daily, and pre-
parations for spring campaign Of
tremendous proportions are going
steadily forward. Many of the troops
now being sent to France have never
experienced actual service, and are be-
ing held in reserve while the veterans
of the present war maintain their
positions in tie trenches.
The arrival of these fresh troops
has not been permitted to go unob-
served by German airmen who occas-
ionally circle above the French con-
centration camps, but no longer drop
bombs in the flights. These aviators
have returned to the German lines pos
sessed, in many instances, of accurate
information as to the number of fresh
units being added daily to the Allied
armies, and their reports have caused
a noticeable apprehension on the part
of German military authorities French
and English aviators after successful
fights over the enemy's lines report
the Strengthening of defenses every
where along the western frontier, and
the establishment of new obstacles to
an invasion of the Fatherland.
All these preparations indicate the
resumption of hostilities in the early
spring upon such tremendous scale
as has never been attempted before,
and many military men are of the opin-
ion that the campaign will be a short,
deadly and decisive one. More than
fourteen million men, it is estimated,
will take active part in this forthcom-
ing campaign and the modern engines
of warfare are expected to produce
almost incalculable losses on both
sides.
In the Polish theatre where Won
Hindenberg recently received heavy
reinforcements, bad roads continue to
delay the threatened German often
sive and react to the advantage of the
Muscovites. Today's fighting in that
area was spirited, according to Petro-
grad, and resulted in slight Russian
successes. Advanced German positions
along the Victula, were taken by the
Russians early today and the German
beaten back a distance of several
miles. Details of the engagement az 3
