GEORGIA BONE-DRY
 BILL PASSES AND

Chief Executive Expected to Sign the Measure at Once, As He Shaped
 Legislation

Atlanta, March 28-Georgia's bone dry" prohibition bill. which will bar liquor absolutely from the state ex- cept for medicinal. mechanical and SAC ramental purposes under rigid restric- tions, was passed by the legislature in extra session here late today and Gov ernor Harris is expected to sign ;t shortly. The legislature, which was called primarily to consider ''bone-dry' legislation, then adjourned.
 As passed, the measure was shorn of Q provision making the state commits sioner of commerce and labor "prohibi- tion commissioner. with additional salary and charged with statewide enforcement of the "bone-dry" laws. This provision was advocated by Gov ernor Harris and prohibition leaders who virtually shaped the bill. No later than today the governor in a message to the legislature urged the adoption of this provision on the ground that the measure might be ineffective with out it,
 The governor stressed the difficulty that might be experienced if the en- forcement were left to the various county authorities and not centralized in a state head
 The bill was amended to eliminate the prohibition commissioner" feature in the house late today and although the senate already had passed the measure as approved by the governor, 1t quickly concurred in the house amendments.

Stepmother country to fight, in bolstering up her credit, let us not stop at half measures, but let us give her Sl 600 GOO, ,00D now Tor present needs and then let us relieve the anxieties of all those fnan- ciaily interested in the allied cause. by guaranteeing the parity of all allied war ponds or promises or consols held by our fellow citizens But to become serious again, this would be too hard on the ultimate consumer, the burden-bearers, the plain Americans If we do anything ike this. the great alliance of Anglo Saxon unity (our history and that of lit tie Schleswig-H tell what England understands by that term) would be com plete, the last link in that chain, long forged, be rivetted, and the work of our fathers undone. In such an alliance who will be the leader Let us call it Johnnie Bully, for England will still be the bully. while we will be the "Johnnie" Will we send our navy to help the British to re- tam the mastery of the sea, and perhaps help her to get possession of the Kiel canal, which she covets. according to the allies peace terms? If this could be consummated, our stepmother, and we, her favored step-childreri, would have the freedom of all the seven seas, all the straits and canals for our Panama ca mai. which England also covets would naturally be pooled with all the rest of the highways of this little world, and w WONiN pC iCl III OH IDe ground IlOOf.

 Here is where I see our greatest dan ger: Our boasted independence, the very thing which made me love Old Glory when l was little bcy in Dithmark, a former Boer republic, at the mouth of the Bike, will be gone. It will be our independence or that of England and this world cannot afford to lose either. Knowing something about England, her methods, and the un-American stand which our English-owned or English-in- huenced press has fostered I fear for our country.
 Now, MT Editor, this was to have been an epitome of the different phases of our American neutrality. It has turned out to be more lengthy than I intended and l ask you to forgive me. It Is no en- comium and for this I am truly sorry, but the fault Is not in me, nor in the stars, but in the facts presented.
 l wish to conclude the mournful dirge by reciting the last stanze of Kipling S Recessional:
 For heather heart that puts her trust
 In reeking tube and iron shard-
 All valiant dust that builds on dust
 And guarding calls not Thee to guard For frantic boast and foolish word
 Thy mercy on Thy people Lordi Ameni"
