IL LIVES ARE LOST WHEN
NTORNADO SWEEP 3 STATES

Atlanta, Ca, February 23-Thirteen
persons are known to have lost their
lives and more than 100 have been re-
ported injured in series of tornadoes
that swept portions of Alabama,
Georgia and Mississippi today. The
most serious loss of life was in Middle
Alabama. Seven persons were killed
in the Hollins-Midway Stewartsville
section of Alabama, and at Whitsett,
Ala, four negroes were killed in the
destruction of their cabins.
Much timber was blown down and
many residences were damaged. Two
negroes were killed at Lithonia, Ca,
where at least sixty small dwellings
were demolished. Six children were
injured in storm at Georgetown,
Miss. Small tornadoes also struck
near Wetumpka, Ala, and Hurtsboro,
Ala, causing minor property damage.
The tornado was about mile wide
and was moving East
Practically every house in Hollins
was damaged and in some cases every
thing was completely demolished. It
is feare d the loss of life may be great
er than now reported.

Mr.. Carter. Believing in a tariff that
will raise adequate revenue and give
sufficient protection to our industries
at the same time, he warns against al

to turn their factories back to the
