BUSINESS MEN To
BLACKLIST GERMANY

WASHINGTON, Jan 17.-Unless a
government responsible to the people
is put in power in Germany, the Or
ganized business men of the United
States may refuse to re-establish trade
relations with that nation after the
end of the war.
This warning was sounded last night
by the Chamber of Commerce TO the
United States in a referendum sub
mitted to its membership. Five humid
red thousand business men, through
their commercial organizations, will
vote on his question.
Emphasis is placed on the fact that
the proposed action has no thought Of
revenge or punishment, but is based
ON the contention that only through
Industrial intercourse with the United
States can the military party of Ger
many get the sinews with which to
start a second great war.

ATLANTA is In HAND

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 17.--City Fuel
Administrator Henry B. Kennedy gave
definite assurance today that the coal
situation in Atlanta is we'll in hand
and that, temporarily at least, there is
little cause for alarm.
The most cheering news of days
Jams when P. c. McDuffie, counsel for
the administration, announced to 1900
persons who were in the coal line at
the city auditorium that every one of
the applicants would, in all probable
ity, have his coal delivered before
night, and that, in addition the 700
outstanding orders also would be TAX
en- care Of.
Mr. Nc. lie stated that thirty-eight
cars were riaced in the yards of local
dealers during the day, and that this,
with the coal on hand, would be
enough to provide for the applicants.

JIM CROW LAWS
MAY BE CHANGED

WASHINGTON, Jan. lit is pre-
dicted here that the Administration
bill relating to the operation of the
railroads while under federal control
and to the compensation of their own
ers will be delayed several weeks in
stead of being rushed through Con-
gress, because of opposition to two
sections of the measure.
The opposition comes chiefly from
Southern Democrats, who fear the
proposed legislation may interfere
with the Jim Crow laws of the South
and also with a definite time limit
sci ~ government control for fear it
may lead to government ownership
The question of compensation also
promises to make a contest. Director
General McAdoo will be asked to make
several changes in the bill by members
of the Interstate Commerce Committee
of the House and Senate.
Section 13 of the bill provides that
the federal control of transportation
systems provided for shall continue
for and during the period of the war
and until Congress shall thereafter
order otherwise" There is a serious
opposition to this provision, which
members of the Senate committee
claim would permit the government
t. make the control of the roads per-
manent unless Congress shall order
otherwise.
The Jim-crow car laws of the
Southern states requiring one car for
white people and another for negroes
are in danger of being made inopera-
tive if sections become effective.
This provides that carriers while un-
Ger federal control shall in so far as
il is not inconsistent herewith, or
with the provisions Of this act or any
other act applicable to such federal
control, or with any order OF the
president, be subject to all laws and
liabilities as common carriers; and
suits may be brought by and against
such carriers and judgments rendered
as now provided by law"
This provision will be rewritten if
there is any likelihood of its upset
ting local laws governing railroads in
the states. A number Of protests
have come from states which claim
that the proposed legislation would
deprive states of taxes which they
now get from the railroads.
The Interstate and Foreign Com
MERGE Committee of the House and
of the Senate, which are considering
the railroad bill, will have hearing this
week on these doubtful provisions
Secretary McAdoo is expected to go
before the Senate comittee and rail-
road executives before the House COM
