Not Aimed at Japs
 Senator Reed communicated infor- nation from the state department to the effect that the Japanese embassy had called attention to language in the bill providing that no aliens now in any way" excluded from the coun- try would in the future be permitted to enter the United States. He said the criticism was based on their be- lief that this language wrote into law the Root-Takahira gentlemen's pass mort agreement against the entry of Japanese laborers.
 Lodge Explains 1t
 Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, ranking Republican member of the foreign relations committee. explain ed the progress of the provisions to which Japanese objection had been started in the various stages of such action He said when the present bill went to conference. it was decided to phrase the language so as to exclude all aliens lin any way" excluded or prevented from entering the United States.
 Tt does not, in my judgement, touch the treaty of 1911 (the treaty with Janan which is modified by the so-called gentlemen's agreement) at all. They desired that we, make no allusion to the gentlemen's agreement and we've made none. We have cast no reflection on any race or made no discrimination. The gentlemen's agreement will 20 right on if Japan chooses to uphold it.
 For Our Stability
 ''The vote of both house and sen ate" declared Chairman Smith, "is a clear cut expression of the senti- ment of the American people on the two fundamental principles involved in the bill. namely, the economical and political stability. If an injustice appeared it was more than overbal- anced by our paramount duty to our own people"

Men Required to Read
 The literacy test provided for in the bill excludes from the United States all aliens over 16 years of age physi- cally capable of reading, who cannot read the English language or some Hebrew or Yiddish. Any admissible alien, however, or any citizens of the United States may bring in or send for his father or grandfather over B years of age, his wife. mother, grand mother, or unmarried or widowed daughter if otherwise admissible. re- gardless of whether such relatives can read. Would Limit Aliens
 Immediately after the Senate's act ion, Representative Gardiner of Mas sachusetts, introduced in the House new immigration measure to limit the number of ~I'N~~ coming into this country to a total of 100000.

 President Cleveland vetoed the first immigration measure with a literacy test provision. President Taft disap- proved the second bill, and in 1915 President Wilson rejected the third President Wilson wrote his second veto message few weeks ago.
 Only thirty vetoes have been over ridden in the history of the United States and but four of them have been within the past B years. In 1882 congress passed a river and har- bor bill over President Arthur's veto. In 1886 one of 524 pension bills vetoed by President Cleveland was forced through congress. In Roosevelt's ad- ministration a bill to extend time for construction of a dam on the Rainy River in Minnesota was passed de spite its disapproval and President Taft's rejection of the Webb-Kenyon interstate commerce liquor law was repudiated.

CRISP WINS PLACES
TO HIS COLLEAGUES

WASHINGTON, d. c., April g.
The sixty-ffth congress, called in ex-
traordinary session by President Will
son was organized by the democrats.
Champ Clark, of Missouri, was re-
elected speaker of the lower house,
and all of the old officers also were
elected.
Among them was William NJ. Dunbar
former mayor of Augusta, Ga, who
was named as postmaster. Every mem
Der from Georgia was present and
voted for Clark and the other demo
cratic officers. Gordon Lee, of the
Seventh district, left sick bed to at
tend the session and cast his vote for
the democratic nominees. He was ac-
companied to the capitol by DR.. George
Rufin, his physician. and rested in the
speakers office until just before his
name was reached in the call of the
roll. His unexpected appearance in
the hall of the house was signalized by
an outburst of applause, in which the
republicans joined, since the Geor-
gian is one Of the most popular mem
bers of congress.
In the senate. Senators Smith and
Hardwick were in their seats when the
vice-president called that body to or
der
The committees of the house will re-
main in charge of the democrats, ana
two Georgians, Adamson, of the
Fourth, and Park, of the Second, hold
chairmanships. The former heads the
powerful interstate commerce commit
tee. and the latter is chairman of the
accounts committee.
Congressman Overstreet, First;
Brand, Eighth and Larsen, Twelfth,
Jared unusually we'll in the matter of
assignments, and all of the held-over
members retained their former assign
ments, with the exception of Vinson,
of the Tenth, who was transferred to
the naval committee, one of the most
desirable and important in the organ
iZation.
y Oyarstreet was given place on the
territories, elections, pensions and civil
service reform committees.
Brand landed on banking and cur
rency, education and revision Of laws.
Larsen was assigned to the census
and road committees.
The fact that the Georgia congress
men were so favored in the matter of
committees was due to the efforts of
Congressman Charles R. Crisp. of the
Third, member of the ways a nd
means committee. He made winning
fight for his colleagues, and all of
them are pleased with the fruits Of his
labors.

HAS AN ACCOUNT MADE OUT
IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY

ATLANTA, Ca, April 3.-An inter
esting relic of the middle ages and one
which brings up curious problem in
arithmetic is in the possession OF
Joel Hunter, chairman of the Georgia
State Board of Accountant Examiners,
in the shape of an account prepared
by an Edinburgh sheriff in the Six
tenth century, after he had been put
to considerable expense in the pur-
chase of cords and ladders to hang
thieves of the neighborhood. The fol-
lowing quaint items appear:
The VIII day Of October, cords to
hang and bynd ane thief an skurge ane
uther thief, X d."
The XVI day of October, 1866, for
cords to bind and max ane edder to
James Wod quhe We (who was) hedit,
XIII d."
For ane cart to carry the fallow
that brak his leg furth of the tolbuyth
the town, when he was surgit,
XIII d."
Mr.. Hunter says the Arabic numer-
ais which have now superseded the
more complicated Roman notation
were not generally used among Eng
fish speaking people until about the
Seventeenth century.
An unusually number of applicants
are announced by Mr.. Hunter for the
examinations to obtain certificates I'M
der the Georgia law as certified public
accountants. The examinations will
be held in Atlanta on May 16 and II.

HOLDERBY DENOUNCES
PACIFISTS; HE MAY ENLIST

ATLANTA, Ga, April 3.-There are
many loud pacifsts in the country, and
some of them are preachers, and some
may be Presbyterians, but Dr. A. r.
Eolderby of this city, Presbyterian
minister, who is beloved throughout
the community, is not one of them.
In a sermon brimful of patriotism,
pr. Holderby denounced the pacifsts
as "mollycoddles," and declared that
every able-bodied man in the United
States should respond to his country's
call. His hearers deducted from his
remarks that DR.. Holderby will enlist
