STOKES My Open
WITHOUT HEAT
STATE FUEL ADMINISTRATION
SAYS FEDERAL ORDER DOES
MEAN TO CLOSE.

ATLANTA, Jan. 31-Manufacturin@
plants using hydro electric power
which can operate without burning
coal for heat, and stores and other
business concerns which can operate
without using heat, are not affected
by the closing order or the National
Fuel Administrator, Dr. Garfield.
The Federal Fuel Administrator for
Georgia, Dr. l.. G. Hardman, made this
discovery yesterday, after previously
issuing an order closing down ali
plants which use hydro-electric pow
er, and closing all stores without e
gard to the use of fuel for heating pur-
poses.
Protests from Atlanta manufacture
ers using hydroelectric power, and
others throughout the State, brought
the information officially from Wash
ington that the Fuel Administration
has no jurisdiction over water power
and has never attempted to execrise
any such jurisdiction.
This was the general view OF the
matter taken by lawyers and business
men in Atlanta, but Dr.. Hardman
seemed to entertain the idea that the
Fuel Administration was trying to
stop business and industry, as well
as to save coal, and accordingly he
promulgated the order which was
very promptly countermanded by the
authorities in Washington.

AIRMEN OF BRITAIN
CAPTURE INFANTRY
IN RECENT ADVANCE

With the British Army in France.
Oct. l4.-(Correspondence OF the
Associated Press. )-Airplanes can
be used for capturing infantry. it
was proved by the British in the re-
cent advance. Flying fairly low
seeking parties of German or war
material to bomb, two officers in
one machine were fired upon from a
sunken road. The pilot dived and
the airplane machine gun quickly
accounted for four Germans. Very
quickly, the Germans hoisted a white
flag in token of surrender.
The airmen descended to fifty feet
and ordered the Germns out OF the
road-sixty-five of them in all.
They obeyed. Then rounding up
the party the airmen directed them
toward the British lines.
