GEORGIA RACE WON
EASILY BY HARRIS
Senator Hardwick Meets an
Overwhelming Defeat in !:
Primaries. j,
RUNS THIRD IN CONTEST

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA. Ga, September 12-Over-
whelming defeat of United States Sen
ator Thomas W. Hardwick was shown
today in returns from yesterdays demo-
cratic primary, which is equivalent to
election in Georgia.
William J. Harris, whom President
Wilson publicly termed constant and
consistent supporter Of my adminAstra-
tion." carried II: counties with - con-
vention votes. Under the county unit
system in Georgia, 191 convention vofss
are sufRcient to win tho nomination.
Hardwick ran third in a fivc-co-nered
race.
Representative William Schley How
ard, who also ran on a loyalty platform.
and who. with other opponents OF Sen
ator Hardwick, denounced the latter for
alleged failure to support war measures.
carried twenty counties with fifty con-
yention votes. Hardwick carried only
eighteen counties with forty-tvo votes.
Emmett R. Shaw. former state senator.
carried only one county with two votes.
while John R. Cooper, a Macon attorney.
apparently failed to carry single coun-
ty. The returns today show only one
county not reported.

BOND LEGISLATION
WILL CUT REVENUE
General Debate in House on
Tax Bill to End Today;
Amendment Task.

House leaders have arranged to finish
general debate on the revenue bill to-
day, and to begin the real work on the
amendments tomorrow. At the same
time there is an understanding that the
new bill asked by Secretary McAdoo to
facilitate sale of liberty bonds by max
ing a larger amount of the bonds held in
Individual hands exempt from surtaxes,
will be passed without serious opposi-
ton.
Majority Leader Kitchin privately es-
timated that the new bond legislation
probably would reduce the revenue yield
about $50.O00,0 900. No revision had been
planned, he said, to make. up for the
loss. The ways and means committee
considered this measure yesterday and
arranged to hear Assistant Secretary
LeffingWell today. With prospects of
little or no opposition, the: committee
expects to pass the bond bill Friday
under an arrangement made for CO.
operation by Senate leaders.
New Exemption Provision.
AS proposed by Mr.. NLcAdoo. in
stead of the present law exempting
from income surfaces bonds up to
$4,000 owned by any individual or
corporation, the new bill would eN-
empt 100000 of the. new fourth loan
and $4,000 of the second and third
issues or the Converted securities of
the first issue.
Speechmaking in the House dragged
along, with less than. fifty mem bers
in attendance. The speeches in the
main were patriotic, ihterJected with
severe criticism of the bills provi-
sions.
Representatives, in opposing many
Of it's provisions, will vote for it as
a whole and send it to the Senate,
where an attempt to rewrdte it prob
ably will be made.
Representative Madden of Illinois.
in opposing the tax on municipal
bonds, declared that inequalities
could not be escaped in so broad A
measure, butt that it was reasonably
satisfactory, and that the people
would smile while they pay.
A l per cent tax on general mer-
chandise sales, which. he said, would
raise between $4,000. 100000 and $4,000.
900, 600. was favored by Representative
Sterling of Illinois. while Representative
Merritt of Connecticut, declaring the
inheritance TAX cOnIlSCAtOFv, dlSO StS
gested that corporations dividends
converted into liberty bonds should
be exempt from the per cent penalty
placed upon undtstributed dividends.
Absence Of Tariff Taxes.
Representative Sloan of Nebraska,
republican ways and means committee
member, criticised the absence of tariff
taxes, and also failure of the admins
tration to convert allies loans into
bonds.
Representative Madden predicted that
the corporation provision making in
come Of dividends received from
other corporations would not stand a
Supreme Court test.
The plan for a new tax advisory
commission, to aid in, administering
the law. was praised by Representa-
tive Dixon of Indiana, a democratic
member of the ways and means COM
,nittee.

I'm my opinion it is a masterpiece
of German propaganda. The German
government could not have devised
anything more insidious, more calcu-
lated to destroy our faith in our allies
and to insinuate into the American
mind excuses for Germany. Endorsed
by the chairman Of the committee on
public information, it becomes a men
ace to the American morale. and, as

70 CARS ORDERED
BY TRAFFIC LINES
Public Utilities Commission
Tells Senate Companies
Seek to Remedy.

Replying to a resolution adopted
by the Senate asking what the Public
UTILITIES Commission has done to COM
pel the street car companies to supply
more cars to maintain wartime stu
alton in Washington, the commission
today sent to the Senate a report
showing that the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company has or
dered fifty new cars and the Capital
Traction Company twenty. These cars
will be in operation beginning in De-
cember.
The commissions report shows that
no formal order was issued by 1t TO
the companies to purchase more cars
but that the commission approved the
specifications for the cars ordered by
the companies last March and April.
Facing Handicaps.
The comnli ssion states that it be-
lieves the com panies are making rea-
sonab!e efforts to meet the unprece-
dented situation caused by the war
The companies have been greatly

Immediately.
with such inducements it seems
reasonable to expect an Increase IN
the number Of trainnen. sufficient TO
operate all cars" said the report.
The commission sent with its re-
port a statement showing the number
of scheduled runs not operated since
last March because OF q lack OF trali,
crews. One-way trips TOT operateo
for this reason by the Capital Trac-
ton Company were as follows: March,
july. sill; August. 2,167. Trips not
operated by the Washington Railway
and Electric Company for the same SAM
reasons were: March. 2,T1 1o A I',,l
S.O39, and August, 1852.
Given Priority Orders.
1t showed that the companies or
ders for new cars were given priority
under orders issued by the bureau of
industrial housing and the war IN
dustries Board. Deliveries have been
promised through September, october
and November, and the completed
cars can be assembled and ready for
operation beginning in December.
The commission said it had promptly
approved an issue of bonds by the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany amounting to S312,eoo 10 hnahce
the purchase of new cars.
The report of the commission will be
laid before the Senate when it meets
tomorrow. The resolution asking for
the information was introduced by Sen
ator Jones CT Washington. who express
Cd the oninAon that radical steps must
