MIGRATION Of NEGROES
PROBED BY GOVERNMENT
Wholesale Exodus May Have
Significant Bearing on
Coming Election

Although the department of justice at
Washington is investigating the cause
of the wholesale migration of negroes
to points in the east and west. United
States District Attorney Hooper Alex
ander said Wednesday that any infor-
nation about what the department had
learned would have to come from
Washington.
The government is trying to deter
mine whether the migration has any
thing to Go with the presidential cleo
ton. It is admitted that an eXcep-
tional demand now exists for common
labor in the north, and that a good
many negroes are going there to get
jobs. However, this demand has ex-
listed for some time, while the migra-
ton is a recent condition.
The negroes are going mostly through
Savannah and Jacksonville. They are
southeast, in numbers ranging from
fifty or a hundred to 1000.
Swindlers have also beens at work
among the negroes. This was the case
in Macon. where a supposed agent
agreed to furnish jobs and high wages
at Detroit lie expected a fee of so
cents in advance, and promised the
negroes to meet them at a certain sta
ton above Macon with the necessary
transportation.
Most Of the negroes had TO walk back
to Macon. One man, however, man
aged to get to Atlanta, and on Tuesday
called at the district attorneys office
for advice, but happened to miss Mr..
Alexander.

PoStoffiCe Department Prepar-

StOrff'S Proposal
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE postof-
fee department is prepared to accept "A
proposal, submitted by Count Won Berns-
torff. the German ambassador, that mails
between this country and Germany be
transported in merchant submarines.
announcement to this effect was made
today by Otto Praeger, second assistant
postmaster general.
The proposal is that not more than
SEQ pounds of first-class letter mail be
carried by each German merchant sub
marine leaving an American port. at the
regular steam liners rate. The sug
gestion was made that submarine mail
be placed in special containers. but the
postoffice authorities rejected that, say
ing mails could only be handled with
the regular equipment.
Count Won Bernstorff probably will
confer with postal officials within the
next day or so to arrange final details.
German officials hope that the plans
can be completed in time for the
Deutschland to carry the nrst mail ship
ment on her second return voyage.

LAUNCH MOVE FOR j. S.
PLANT ON ETOWAH RIVER
Government viii Be Asked to
Develop Water
Power

The aid Of the Georgia chamber of
commerce to a movement to have the
United States government develop the
water power of the Etowah river near
Gainesville, with the view of establish
ing the United States nitrate plant there
and also for the purpose of revolutioniz-
ing manufacturing industry in the en-
tire north Georgia section, was asked
at a conference Tuesday afternoon.
A delegation from the Rome chamber
of commerce, headed by Congressman
Gordon Lee, of the Seventh district and
I. E. Grafton, an expert engineer anG
secretary of the Rome chamber of COM
merce, put the proposition before
a committee from the state chamber of
commerce.
THE state OF Georgia has at her
very door the greatest undeveloped com
mercial asset of the nation" said Mr..
Grafton, Tuesday morning to a Journal
reporter" Eight years ago the United
States government assigned TO Major I.
B. Ferguson, the engineer officer in
charge of the Rome district at that time,
the task of making a complete survey
of the Coosa river for the purpose of
determining the advisability of it's COM
nIete development, both as to navigation
and power. This survey was deliberately
planned and executed and was issued in
printed form by the government in the
year 1915.
This report clearly defines the Won
derful opportunities offered to the people
of north Georgia.
THE most conservative estimate IS
that during a long drouth the water
power in the Gainesville neighborhood
could be Gevelored to 100000 horse
power and IN normal times to 400, 900
horsepower.
"By the development of this water
power by the building of the dam by
the government the amount of developed
water power in Georgia would be about
doubled

tage of the opportunity that is thrust

COURT HOLDS
PRIMARY NOT ELECTION
State Tribunal Decides Cases
of Alleged Fraud Brought
Up From Savannah

Deciding two cases of alleged primary
election frauds, both brought up from
Savannah, the STATE court of appeals
Wednesday held that primary election
IS not an election, so as to render a
fraud committed at a primary election
within the common law offense of fraud
at an election. In other words, the
court, strictly constituting section 500
of the penal code which provides that
any person VINO shall deposit or aid or
abet another to deposit a ballot at any
election In any name other than his
,wn, as appears on the list of register
q voters prescribed by law, shall be
:uilty of a Inisdemeanor," does not cover
primary elections.
Several decisions are cited in which
it Is held that the word election in
an act entitled IAN act to promote the
purity of elections by regulating the
conduct thereof" etc, does not mean
primary elections.
One of the opinions was written by
Judge Hodges anG the other by Judge
Wade. and both lay down the same gen.
eral proposition.
In each of the cases decided Judge
John O'Rouke, Jr., of the city court of
Savannah, is reversed.
Both grew out of the primary election
1916, to fill the unexpired term of
County Tax Collector T. y. Thomson.
L. F. George was convicted of an at
tempted election fraud, it being charged
that he sought to vote under the name
of Thomas M. Cowart He was fined
s25 or six months. Me made a motion
to arrest judgment, his motion was
overruled and he appealed.
]. w. Marks was charged with the
same offense, il being alleged that he
sought to vote under the name Of
George w. Crosby. He demurred to the
accusation and moved that the indict-
ment against him be quashed. His de-
murrer and motion were overruled and
he appealed
Marks. in his appeal. which was sus-
tanned by the court of appeals, con-
tended that the indictment against him
did not set out any offense under the
laws of the state of Georgia, and the
trial judge, therefore, erred in overrul-
ing his demurrer and refusing to quash
the indictment

all REPORTS so far have said she was at
tackled without warning, there was no
evident tension over the case today IN
government circles. Officials contin-
uad to be optimistic apparently in the
belief that final accounts would show
that the steamer lost. her immunity as
a merchantmen by flight or by attempt
ing a counter attack. AS TO the Rowan
more. which admittedly sought desper-
ately to escape, there seemed to be but
one point to clear up-whether the sub
marine actually fired upon boats leav-
ing the ship. as alleged by survivors.
Secretary Lansing who is handling
the situation personally. declined to say
anything further than that his informa-
ton still was very Incomplete; that
some reports had come from London
during the day. and that the affidavits
of survivors would be cabled TO the
department as soon as they could be
taken.
So far as could be learned the de-
partment thus far has not cleared up
the discrepancy between Consul Frosts
provisional report that the Marina
had been sunk without warning by gun
fire and unofficial advices from Eng
land quoting the consul and others IS
saying the ship was torpedoed.
II NAV be a week or more before the
German reply is received, as the sub
marine or submarines which made the
attacks probably would not return to
their bases and report under several
days. Unless there is an unreasonable
DELAY at Berlin, no serious action will
be taken here pending the reply, even
though complete information from 9TH
er sources should make il evident that
there must be action.
Discussion of the Marina and Row
anplOre cases developed the fact that
the state department never has learned
what punishment was imposed by Ger
many upon the submarine commander
who sank the Sussex, although Ambas-
sadOr Gerard was instructed some time
ago TO make inquiries on the subject
A department official said this was one
of the subjects that would be taken
up with the ambassador when he called
before starting on the return trip TO
Berlin after his vacation.

Secretary Lansing made IL plain also
that no decisive action would be taken

QUESTION OF ARMS.
The instructions sent TO the embassy
at Berlin were said TO ask for an in
PREVENTION by Germany and not for an
explanation. II was not meant TO indi-
cate that the United States believed that
IL had any proof that Germany had vio-
lated her pledges No affidavits OF
American survivors have yet been re-
ceived. but are expected tO-begin ar
irving shortly. The department has re-
auested that they be cabIed Immediately.
The question Of whether tEe Marina
was armed is becoming increasingly i'm
portant No mention Of that has been
made in advices so far received and the
embassy in London has asked for in
formation on the point
Germany has contended that ships
armed with even a small stern gun for

sunk on sight as being practically naval

The fact that England has been arm
