OVERMAN BILL GOES
i FORWARD SLOWLY
Final Vote Possibly Next Week;
Opposition in Senate.

Administration Senators announced
yesterday afternoon. at the close Of
another day Of debate on the Over
man bill. that they will be unable to
obtain a final vote on the measure
before the latter part of next week.
The bill has been before the Senate
for nearly two months.
The continued opposition of Senators
who regarded the measure as an un-
necessary grant Of power to the Pres
ident has made it impossible to hope
for a vote tomorrow, as had been
planned by Senator Overman, who has
charge of the bill
Senators Brandegee of Connecticut,
Smith of Georgia, Knox of PennsylVa-
mia, and Cummins Of Iowa, spoke
against the bill yesterday. 1t was de-
Tended by Senators Shafroth of Col
orado and Kirby, of Arkansas.
In opposing the bill. Senator Bran
degee was especially vehement in de-
nouncing the proposal to give the
President power to rearrange the
functions of all the executive depart
ments. He declared that the inef-
ficient men now in government offices
had all been appointed by the Presi-
dent. and that he had power ITO cut
their heads OFF, whenever he chose
to do so.

Deputy High Commissioner

ment Of Position.

your, duty. Americans. is to make
haste"
This was the word that Edouard de
Billy. deputy high commissioner Of
France to the United States. brought
here yesterday. fresh from the
Picardy battlefield. In a remarkably
frank summation Of the whole war
problem he declared that America
must turn out ships and men, or the
Plans for 1919 and 1890 must be ap-
piled to 1913, he says.
The allies are outnumbered on the
Western front today. England and
France are pouring in their reserves.
utmost. The railroads of France are
bearing a huge burden.
Unity Of Command.
But unity Of command has at last
been accomplished. The physical and
moral condition Of the British and
French troops was never higher. The
Americans have already proved their
mettle on the firing line and Mr.. de
Billy declares the utmost confidence
prevails that, despite their numerical
inferiority, the allies will be able to
prevent the Germans from splitting
the British and French armies in two
and defeating them one after, the
other.
'"The training Of your men IL in the
hands OF your government and has
shipbuilding is in the hands of the
,kAI n,I, that
the men go into the shipyards. and
there do the most effective work Of
which they are capable"

Americans at SeIcheprey. Mr. de
Billy says that the Americans had
conducted themselves calamity and
drawal for a time, he says. is ex-
pected in the face Of the fierce gas
and artillery bombardment to which
the Americans were subjected. He
believes that within a few hours
other accounts creditable' to America
will come from a far hotter section
Of the front in Flanders.
Entire Forces Massed in West.
Germany, Mr.. de Billy declares, has
her entire force on the western front.
There remain no German troops in
Macedonia or Italy, and there are
but o few battalions in Mesopota-
mia. The forces in Russia have
been reduced to the minimum requir-
ed for penetration OF the country.
now that Russian resistance has been
done away with by the peace treaty.
Two more divisions have just been
moved from Russia to the west front

Big Gun Fails to Alarn Paris.
The alarm IL no longer sounded
in Paris when bombardnent by the
German long range-gun begins and
the life Of the capital goes on ir-
respective Of the scattering, infre-
quent and generally harmless shots.
This Is the account Of the Paris bonn
bardments brought by Edouard de
Billy.
Many Of the shells. he says, have
fallen and failed to explode They
weigh but 200 pounds and contain but
a scant twenty pounds OF T, n. z.
They make a hole in the street but q
foot deep. such deaths as they have
caused resulted from flying shell frag-
ments. The deaths in the church on
Good Friday were caused by the col
lapse of the Gothic stone roof when
one Of the shells happened to lit q
pillar which was one of the roofs
principal supports.
Analysis of the steel Of which the
shell is made has puzzled the French
experts. Apparently untempered. the
outside Of the shell is particularly
hard.
+. Only, Capable Of 100 Shots
From the numbers which appear
stamped on the shells the Paris ex-
perts have deduced that each gun rs

ITALY WAS HONORED
BY ATLANTIANS FRIDAY

Atlanta, Ga, May 25.-With one of
the finest and most spectacular of the
many parades which have thrilled At
lantians in the past several weeks, the
city paid honor yesterday afternoon
to the sacrifices Italy has made in the
common cause of humanity and civili-
cation against the brutal threat of
German military domination.
With five brass bands drawn from
Camp Gordon, Fort Mcpherson, the
Atlanta Greek colony and other or
carnations, and with the Italians of
the local colony heading the parade
Immediately preceded by the govern
or, the mayor and the members of
Atlanta's city council, the procession
which followed behind was made up
of the cream of the city's, citizenship.
In addition to the leading business

WITH THE BOY SCOUTS
AT BOILS SPRING CAMP

We left the city Monday morning at
four o'clocl, sharp. There were %
Scouts and Mr. Wilkerson. We fell
in line behind the wagon carrying
some OF our supplies. After march
ing to Lulaville, which was our first
stop, we rested fifteen minutes ard
got water
We arrived at the Boils at 7:.30
o'clock. After a brief rest we began
reconstructing part of the road from
the Dixie Highway to the Boils. 1t
was entirely new work to us but we
made good job of it, filled in a bad
mud bog and cut some roots out of
the road.
Our boat which was made by the
Scouts, under Mr.. Wilkerson's direc-
ton, had been carried down before
and we took turns rowing around.
The groceries were brought out to
camp at 1890 and our tents were
brought to camp at 1l:30, while our
regular cooks, Scout Lawrence Will
kerson and Scout Scribe Glen Thurs
ton, were getting dinner, we put up
our tents. After scooping all the
leaves out of our tents we put some
straw in them. This made us a good
soft mattress and also prevented the
red bugs from being in our tents
After we were through we ate din
ner. Our favorite dish slum- gullion
was served with coffee and bread.
After dinner some of the Scouts
went fishing and some others, includ-
