GEORGIA GOVERNOR
REPLIES TO NEGRO
LEAGUE ON LYNCHlNGS

ATLANTA. Ca, May 24.-Gov.
Dorsey in a letter Thursday TO the
Colored Welfare league Of Georgia,
said the surest way to discourage
lynchings is TO convince the lawless
elements Of the Negro race that
personal outrages and violence, es-
pecially against helpless women and
children. will provoke prompt re-
taliatiOn Of community vengeance
which it is difficult. if not impos-
sible 70 control"
The letter was in reply TO a pro-
test from the league against the
recent lynching of four Negroes in
South Georgia in connection with
the murder OF a farmer and the
woun ding OF his wife
The governor said he knew such
crimes were condemned by the bet
ter class Of Negroes and expressed
the hope that the Georgia league
would, by concerted action with sim
liar organizations. disseminate the
doctrine outlined by the governor to
the end that causes for humanity
ven 5eanCe might be minimized. In
so ioing the governor said. the or
CARNATIONS would be Of real as
sis .ance TO the executive depart

scourdge lynchings and maintain

COLUMBUS. o.. May "a. - The
Columbus Dispatch Thursday print
ed the following special telegram
from Washington:
The war department is planning
to choose Columbus as the location
for the biggest aviation training
camp in the country. If the state will

fair grounds as a site for the camp
the project undoubtedly will be put
through successfully. According to

neither the state fair, which is
usually held the latter part of Au-
gust, nor the national dairy show,
which will be held in November. will
be interefered with. The government
wants to establish a camp on the
fair grounds for the training of from
1900 TO 1000 aviators, and if plans
Carried out this will give the Buck
eye state capital the largest camp
of fiiers in the country"
The war department has directed
Lieut.. Col. +. u. Steever of the avia-
ton service to go to Ohio at once
and take up the matter Of obtaining
the use of the fair grounds with the
proper state officials.

Aviatrix Stinson
Breaks Ruth
Laws Record

BINGHAMPTON, y. Y, May "a
Katherine Stinson, the aviatrix who
left Chicago Thursday morning to
fly TO New York, carrying govern
ment mail, damaged her airplane
while attempting landing two
miles north of this city at $40
Thursday evening. The machine
overturned just as it reached the
ground, slashing the propeller and
damaging one of the wings. Miss
Stinson was uninjured.
Having covered the 7S3 miles
from Chicago TO this city in 10 hours
Miss Stinson bettered by about
nine miles the distance made by
Ruth Law in her record breaking
fight in the fall of 1916. She cir
cled the city in search of a suitable
landing place and finally chose a
small plateau on a hill north of the
city. A strong wind added 10 the
difficulties of the landing.
Hundreds Of automobiles were
raced TO the landing place and help
was soon at hand after the plane
came to a stop. Miss Stinson, ap-
parently none the worse for her
mishap, directed the work of right
ing the machine.

WOMEN WORKERS
REPLACE MEN
Wisconsin Box Factory Re-
lieveS Labor Shortage by
Employing Girls.

MARINETTE, Wis. May 24.-The
shortage of men for work in the
lumber production industries in the
north has caused a box manufacture
large portion of its work TO women.
Fifty girls have been employed TO
operate various machines and from
the reports of the management the
work is being performed as quickly
accurately, and efficiently as when
men did the work.
In several places the girls work
at the same machine with men, per-
forming their duties without slowing
up the production in the least. In
the assembling room men insert
pieces of wood to be sawed and
girls clear the machine from the
other side. In the room where
bottling cases for beverage COM
panies are made, girls put the par
titions together and the men place
the iron bands about the two ends
of the cases. Although the women

out. In the printing room, where
the name Of the company for which
the BOXES are being made is stamp
ed upon them, men feed the press
and girls clear it.
In several places in the factory
the work is such that il has been
turned over completely TO the girls.
In one part of the assembly room
girls place the hinges, locks and
springs on the boxes without the as
sistance OF men. In other places the
work is such that men still have a
monopoly The handling Of heavy
logs as they come from the woods
and the cutting Of the logs in the
is too heavy for other than
the strongest men.
In the work the girls have all
been protected from danger as
much as possible. In many cases
the girls are sisters or daughters of
the men at the factory and the
morals are said to be excellent. The
girls themselves are enthusiastic
about the new work
