jzed the statement that neither based
on official reports to the state depart

statement, could it be said that Rus

clude separate peace with Germany
This government, Secretary Lansing
asserted, deplores any construction OF
the situation contrary to the actual
facts.
The United States governments ap-

FRATERNAL ORDERS
WIN THEIR FIGHT
THEY WILL BE ALLOWED To
ERECT TOGETHER ONE HOME AT
EACH OF THE VARIOUS NEW
ARMY CAMPS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 2.-As
the result of a strenuous demand from
prominent men in various secret or
ders, the war department will in the
near future allow a building to be
constructed in each of the great army
camps and cantonments to be useC
by the Masons and other orders in
promoting the welfare of the troops.
The policy will be to permit one
Luilding to be built according to gov
ernment specifications in each camp
and cantonment, and to be used BY
the Masons, Odd Fellows, Maccabees,
and like orders. under joint arrange
ment The matter is one which has
been mooted for months.
When the Scottish Rite Masons held
their recent convention here they pre-
pared a strogn protest to Secretary
Baker and the president because of
the policy which had been laid down.
Under this policy buildings were al
lowed at each camp and cantonmert
for the Y. NJ c. A, the knights o.
Columbus and the Young Mems He
Brew Association, but for no other
like organizations.
The Masons and other secret orders
insisted they should be allowed build
iDgs. The president was personally
urged to permit it.
Senator Bankhead, who is lead
ing Mason, took the question up with
the White House personally. The prob
lem will be settled as already indl-
Gated.

PROHIBITION WAVE
SWEEPING COUN TRY

ATLANTA. Ca, Nov 2.--One of the
most prominent citizens of Atlanta
who has just returned from an exten-
sive trip through northern and eastern
states, going as far west as West De
troit and as far east as New York and
Boston, declares that the prohibition
movement is sweeping the country.
In Detroit he found the liquor deal
rs and the public adjusting themselves
u the closing Of saloons which will
come at early date. while in Wash
ington they are also getting ready to
bid farewell to booze, Although the
prohibition wave has not engulfed
New York, the Atlantaan found the
sentiment growing even there. War
and the necessity for conserving
grains has given the prohibition move
ment TREMENDOUS impetus, combined
with the worldwide demand for in
creased efficiency along all lines, in
cluding physical efficiency.
OF course the prohibition movement
is nothing new in Georgia, which took
its place in the list of bone dry states
several months ago, and previous to
that was under partial prohibition for
many years, but the state will have
another opportunity to declare itself
on the prohibition question in the near
future when the proposed prohibition
amendment to the federal constitution
is referred to the various state legis-
latures for ratification or rejection.
The Georgia Anti-Salon League, o.
which James A. Christian is superin-
tendent, is now conducting a campaign
in advonce Of the passase of the
amendment, for the purpose of build
ing up a sentiment that will insure
its ratification by the Georgia legis-
lature when it comes down by re-
ferendum from Washington.

MANY PENNIES IN
CIRCULATION NOW
NEW WAR TAXES IN EFFECT TO.
DAY AND CAUSE GREAT RUSH
FOR PENNIES VERY MUCH
CONFUSION. -.

There is a great rush for pennies
and one-cent stamps today.
The new postage rates are in effect
and on all letters going out of Ameri-
Gus, except those on rural routes, q
three-cent stamp is required. In con-
sequence, the postoff1ce has had a
steady demand all day for one-cent
stamps. Very few postcards at two
cents each have been purchased.
In the stores where the war taxes
applied to cigarettes and drinks, there
is not much difference The stores put
the tax into effect seevral ways ago
and their customers are used to Civ
ing and receiving pennies
Persons going away on the trains,
however, found that they, too, were
affected by the war tax and to many Of
them ticket-sellers had to explain il
detail why higher fare was being
charged

LONDON, Nov 2.-Three officers and
a number of sailors of the German

to news dispatch from Amsterdam

claims to have learned authentic de
tails of an outbreak which occurred

From military standpoint, the ex-

required bath, first with gasoline

Today the sun was shining brightly
and the returned soldiers spent most
of the time summing themselves and
their BELONGINGS. Some of the fields
in this section of France are covered
with blankets, parts of uniforms and
equipment. Clouds of red dust arose
in these places when later the owners
started to brush. Late this afteronon

EXTENSION OF
RAILROAD HERE
TOO EXPENSIVE
AMERICUS AND ATLANTIC PRO-
JECT MUST BE ABANDONED BE-
CAUSE ADVANCE IN COST OF MA
TERiALS.

1t is learned that a favorable re-
port was made on the proposed extern
sion of the Americus and Atlantic rail-
road, but that the project is now de-
layed, if not altogether defeated, be-
cause of the advanced cost of mater
ials and labor since the survey.
The engineer reported to the Phila-
delphia capitalists who are backing the
enterprise that it would cost two mil
lion dollars to make the extension from
Methvin's store in the 2Sth district,
nine miles from Americas to Edison,
in Calhoun county. He said that at
that outlay the venture would be q
paying investment.
| Since the making of the report, it
has been estimated that the extension
would now cost between three and
four million dollars, and for that rea-
son no other steps have been taken to-
ward building the road.
1t is believed, however, that the
road will be extended into Americus,
which would then make it run from
Byromville to this city The A, b
& A. is said to be desirous of securing
an entry into Americus, and that it
would do so over this line Negotia-
tions to that effect are said to be in
progress.
The report of the engineer is decla,-
ed to have been very favorable to
Amerieus and this section, and that it
would have been adopted as basis for
extending the road, but for the unus-
ual advance in the price of all con
struction materials

1900 PLEDGE
To SAVE FOOD
IN THE COUNTY
MORE THAN HALF OF THE CARDS
HAVE BEEN SIGNED IN CAM
PAIGN HERE-YERY FEW WON'T
MAKE PLEDGE.

The food conservation campaign il
Sumter county is making splendid
progress.
So far more than 1000 cards have
been returned to County Chairman
Fenimore. These came mostly from
the ladies who solicited the house
wives of Americus. and from Prof w
NJ Reddick. who is conducting the
campaign among the negroes.
Reports from Plains, Leslie and An
dersonville have not been received as
yet,
1t is stated that the negroes are
signing the pledges almost without ex-
ception. So are the foreigners living
in this city. One of the latter stated
that she would not only enter cordial
ly into the spirit of the campaign, but
that she had already invested $500 in
Liberty bods. She is a Syrian woman
and her husband a Turkish subject
Probably one housewife out of a
hundred, according to the reports, de-
clined to sign a pledge to save food,
and each one of those advanced soma
special, personal reason for not eating
less meat. sugar and wheat products.
A total OF $500 cards were put out
for distribution in this country, and
reports on all of them are expected
to be in h. tomorrow afternoon.

HAS BECOME Of
BR|TA|N'S FLEET
UNITED STATES SECRETARY OF
STATE SAYS THAT SITUATION
is NOT AS SERIOUS AS kEREN-
SKY STATEMENT INDICATES.

PETROGRAD, Nov. Russia is
worn out by the strain of the war and
must have help, Premier Kerensky told
the Associated Press today
Russia claims as her right, Premier
Kenersky said, that the other allies
should now shoulder the burden which
she has borne, but emphatically de
clared Russia is not to be considered
out of the war. ~
A separate peace with Germany, ac
b cordiag ID the premier's statement, Is
Snot contemplated, but Russia simply Is
temporarily exhausted, disorganized
and must have outside help in recon
stituting her armies and bolsterin5
up the weakened morale of her fighting
men
Russia, the premier declared today,
has been fighting eighteen months
longer than England, and had been
fighting her battles aloe, unaided, and
unassisted Russia has fought cno-
sistently since the beginning" Pre-
mier Kerensky declared. only Russia
q; the beginning saved France from
annihilation, and England from dlsas-
tor AID people who say We are out of
The war have a short memory.
AT present Russian public opinion
is greatly agitated By the question::
Where is the great British feet,
now that the Gerr-..l. feet is in the
Baltic?" ......
Kerensky then added he knew the
United States could not send troops
Immediately, but that America could
send leather. iron and money-the last
added most empnatically. lie said then
that the masses of the Russian people
were down and OUT economically. anG
that the people doubted the possibility
