ITALY STOPS SALE OF
ALL PRECIOUS STONES

ROME, May 24.-The expectation
of diamonds, rubies, sapphires, pearls
and other precious stones has been
prohibited. The reason for this action
is that the deprecated value of ltal-
ian money has made it possible for
dealers in Switzerland, France, or
Spain to buy these stones in Italy at
the market price in lire and yet
handsome bargain really paying for
a set of diamonds worth 100000 lire
not more than $4,000 to 10000 lire. AS
there has been accumulated in Italy
for many centuries past large quanti-
ties of valuable stones, many of which
since the war have been put on the
market by needy owners, the fear has
been expressed that Italy has been
losing much of this form of her ma
tional wealth, through expectations.
particularly to Switzerland.

MAYOR GAMBLER FINISHES
SUCCESSFUL TERN AS MAYOR

ATLANTA, Ga, June 2O.-While
four rival candidates are fighting it
out for the office to which he declined
reelection, Mayor Asa G. Gambler is
winding up the finishing touches of a
highly successful administration Al.
though he has been criticised in some
quarters, his work will go on record
as among the best in Atlantas his
tory. He went into the mayors Office
at time when tie city's credit lad
been considerably impaired on account
of the strife and dissenslon prevailing
in the administration of James G.
Woodward, and by restoring business
methods in the handling of city affairs
he has placed the value of Atlanta's
municipal obligations back on par
basis. The streets were badly worn
out, and he has repaired most of them
in first class condition. His cotton
warehouse built here at cost of ST.,
100000, the largest concrete ware
house in the world, has made Atlanta
a great inland spot cotton market
which it never was before. His liberal
dealings with the government largely
enabled the city to secure the location
of Camp Gordon, and Atlanta's rela
tions with the soldiers have been the
very best, unmarried by a single clash
between the soldiers and civilians
The laws have been consistently en-
forced and all attempts to reopen the
tenderloin district have been blocked
in their incipiency. Mayor Gambler is
generally regarded here as splendid
citizen both of the city and of the
state. He gave $1,O0O000 to Emory
University, and some years ago in the
administration of Governor John NJ
Slaton he purchased the entire bond
issue of the state of Georgia at much
better price than any of the bond deal
ers of Atlanta or New York had SUI
mitted.

HOME RULE DEAD
SAY BRITISH PRESS
SPEECH IN HOUSE OF LORDS CON-
SlDERED AS ADMISSION

LONDON. June 21.-The Earl of
Curhot's sLaech in the House of Lords
was night was Immediately seized up
on in the Hobbies as an admission of
a breakdown in the Irish policy, in
dicating as it did the abandonment
for the present at least of any attempt
to introduce the home rule bill.
1t was treated in the morning papers
as a sensational development. Home
Rule is dead, Irish CONSUMPTION is
dead" says the radical Daily News.
"And the whole Irish policy of govern
ment has fallen crumbling to the
ground" Apart from military consid-
erations, the condition of Ireland to-
day is mockery of every profession
to which we give utterance as the vim
dicators of the ideals of justice and

June 21.-The second phase of the
Austrian offensive featured by attacks
to the right and left of Malstagnat
along the Brenta River and in the
mountains should logically begin soon.
Now that the effort on the Pave
nas failed, it is felt that if the Aus
TRANS do not renew their efforts to
penetrate to the plains through the
Bretna region and taking Monte Crap
pa, it will be an Acknowledgement of
defeat and their inability to carry out
the ambitious plan launched a week
ago
The situation, however, is still re-
garded as very serious and all prepa
rations have been made to meet any
new offensive.

LATE MARRIAGES
WILL NOT COUNT
REVISION OF RULES WILL WITH
REGARD TO REeIsrRANTs WILL
PROVIDE CHANGES.

One of the rules which General
Crowder has changed in his effort to
find more men of the present regis
tration for the army is that with re-
gard to late marriages. A marriage
contracted since May IS, 1917 will not
constitute a dependency allowable in
deferring classification. Only de-
pendent child will count now.
Chairman Fakes and the board are
busy now adjusting themselves for the
new conditions which will require com
plete revision of the registration and
entirely revised classification. This
is coming after July /. Registrants
who fail to show employment of vital
necessity or war aid are going to find
themselves marching somewhere in
the direction of the western front
right soon, so General Crowder says.
This, too, will apply after July list.

FARMERS UNION
 OPPOSES FIXING
 PRICE Of COTTON

Little Rock, May 1S.-That any ef- fort to fix an arbitrary price on cot ton, such as 20 cents per pound Will result in loss and probable disaster to the cotton growing sections ot Ar kansas and the south, was the oplnlon of the executive committee of the Ar kansas Farmers Union, after a two days session for discussion of the question.
 This conclusion will be placed be- fore the proper committee of con gress and the food administration at an early date. J. E. Rogers, president of the union, will head the commit tee which will go to Washington.
 "We discussed the price fixing for cotton and cottonseed oil and all by products from the standpoint of the small planter, the renter and the agrl, cultural laborer, especially the share cropper," said MT. Rogers Saturday morning, ''and while we are not going to appeal to congress as klckers, we feel that congress should know the facts in the case.
 "Price fixing is we'll enough when one can determine the exact or even the approximate cost of everything that goes into the production of an article. This cannot be done in rais' ing cotton, hence, price fixing leaves the raiser at the mercy of hard con ditiOns.
 eff he is renter, the tax of costs falls upon him solely. If he is an own CT of property, he must count capital investment, living and a number oi other things"
 The executive committee adjourn ed Saturday morning after discussing the state convention of the union which will be held in Little Rock be ginnig August ', for four days.
 Members of the committee pres
