KIMBALL HOUSE

ATLANTA Ca, April 2S.-William
J. Harris, candidate for the United
States Senate, on yesterday opened
campaign headquarters in the Kimball
House. His campaign manager and
fellow townsman, DR.. L. S. Ledbetter,
Of Cedartown, will be in charge, and
will be assisted by Judge Jerome
Crawley, of Waycross. Numerous
other friends from various parts of
the state will be in and out of head
quarters constantly to advise with
the managers, and Mr.. Harris himself
will be in Georgia for several days de-
Iivering speeches. On his way back
here from Waycross, where he open
ed his campaign last Saturday, Mr..
Harris visited Savannah and Black
shear and was greeted by several hum
dred friends.
my strength in south Georgia is
even greater than l had expected at
any time" stated Mr.. Harris yester-
day. 81 am satisfied / will not lose
five counties south of Macon. The
race for the Senate is undoubtedly be-
tween the punior senator and myself,
and every entry to divide the loyal
vote helps him"
Mr.. Harris yesterday made his posi-
ton clear regarding campaign contri-
buttons, declaring that he was perfect
" willing to join with any and all
candidates in having list of all con-
tributors published either before, dur
iIg or after the campaign. In this
connection he stated that he was re-
liably informed Of an offer by proml>
nent Atlanta lawyer, who was recent
ly a candidate for the United States
iudgeship to succeed Judg e w. T.
Newman, and who was connected with
the Frank case, to contribute $3.50 to
Congressman William Schley Howards
campaign fund and to obtain similar
contribution from forty others, making
a total Of $4,000.
Il have nothing but the kindest
feelings for Congressman Howard, "
stated Mr.. Harris. 81 think he made
serious mistake in entering the race.
He has fine position as representa-
tive of fine district, and | hope he
will yet change his mind and decide
to serve his constituents again"

CRAWLs UNDER TABLE
TO ESCAPE AIRB0MBS
BY LOWELL MELLETT

(UnlLou Pr6SS OCHH contemporary
LONDON, March S.--A little wom-
an who teaches schol in the East End
was visiting us last night when the
air raid began. She did an extra
ordinary thing.
please don't pay any attention to
me for while" she said, and then
she took little book, a school text
book perhaps, from her cloak pocket,
and candle from the mantel and
crawled under the table. There, while
the guns across the river roared
away, she sat and read, needless of
the others in the room. When tea
was made presently, as it usually is
during informal air raid parties, hers
was passed to her under the table.
Wasn't that funny?
When the Boy Scouts bugles two
hours later announced the end of the
danger, she came out Doubtless
thinking an explanation was required,
she explained as follows:
THE air raids didn't bother me at
all until last summer, but ever, since
then they have affected my nerves.
You remember the raid in which a
number of school children were kill
ed, ont in the neighborhood of my
school. That day I had taken my
pupils to a little public square TO
play. You know they are all tubercu-
lar children and we have to keep out
of doors as much as possible.
IAN aeroplane appeared over head
and the most of us stood and watched
it. That was the time something went
wrong with the warning system and
we had no reason to know it was a
German machine until we began 20
hear explosions over by the school
house and to see shrapnel bursting
in the air around the machine.
"The children began to cry and to
run to me, Some of them have tuber-
cular hips and it makes me feel sort
of sick yet when I remember how
they tried to hurry. dragging their
little legs along. They had piled
around me and hid their faces in my
skirt and cried. I got them into a
nearby house and kept them until the
raid was over.
'fof course. none of them was hurt,
but-well, I haven't felt quite the
same about air raids since then"
Not very funny, was it

'TENER ANXIOUS TO
KEEP MINOR GOING
BY H. c. HAMILTON

UNITED Press STAFF Correspondent
NEW YORK, April 23.-A class AA
league will finish the season in the
east if the National league can do any
thing to keep it going.
This is the attitude of Gov John
X. Tener,president Of the National
league, expressed when the Interna-
tional was on its last legs and wab-
bling badly. 1t wasn't put in such a
fashion, but the big league head
promised that the National would do
anything to keep alive successor to
the league or the International itself.
The state without an International
league or a successor to the foot
ball or baseball would present rath-
er sorry baseball sight at the opening
of the season. Class AA baseball has
come to be as much of an institution
in the east as has the major league
kind. In fact, there was time when
the International was considered
dominant factor in baseball-espec1al-
ly in the minors 1t had quite a bit
to say when the Federal league ended
its days by capitulation to organized
baseball, for it's towns were the ones
mainly hit by the interloping circuit.
When Ed G. Barrow was president
Of the organization it went through
some troublous items, but Barrow al
ways was equal to the task of pulling
his pet through. He was friendly
with the organized powers in the ma
tional game and often went the very
limit in getting aid for some totering
club.
These things will be missed in the
organization formed to take the place
of the defunct member of the national
agreement, but the friendly, helping
hand extended by the National league
will be a welcome bright spot in the
future.
The National league can well afford
to help the eastern class AA league,
for it covers field for EARNED" play
ers that can hardly be dispensed with.
Many times National leaguers Nigh
find it hard to release players to low
er classifcations if this big minor WAS
not operating.
Much of the trouble the Interna-
tional league forced on organized
baseball would have been avoided had
the club owners in that circuit and
in the American association listened
tc the counselling Of Barrow when
he attempted to organize a new minor
league last fall His proposition was
to take the best cities of the Ameri-
can assertion for a western half OF
g new circuit, and combine them with
four International league cities for
an eastern half.
A league such as this would De
fourishing now, whereas the Interna-
tional has now passed in it's checks
and the future looks anything but
rosy for some of the American asso-
citation cities.

WRECKED FRENCH PLANE
KILLS GERMAN WHO
FORCED IT DOWN

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES,
March 15.-(By Mail. i'm the diary
Of a certain German sergeant just
taken prisoner on the French front
has been found recorded another one
Of those almost fantastic tragedies
OF fate with which the present war
urquestionabIy abounds, but which
very few ever come to public knowl-
edge.
Aviation, especially, has been rife
with these examples Of which seems
veritable, ligtning-like stroke of
retribuitve justice.
Such was the death Of Guynmer. It
fell to the lot of the worlds greatest
ACE" who had officially brought down
fifty-four German airplanes, and at
least twenty more the destruction Of
which could not be officially confirm
ed, to be brought down by German
aviator who never before had brought
down a single machine.
Yet before the victor, Lieutenant
Wissman by name, could even re-
ceive the Iron Cross for his deed, he
himself was brought dow nto death by
Lieutenant Fone
Somewhat similar is the stroke Of
destiny recorded in the diary of Ser
geant Thielman Of the Third COMPANY
OF the Tirty-sixth Regiment Of the
18th Division Of German infantry.
The entries in the diary were written
in Alsace on the German front facing
Mulhouse. For two consecutive days
they were as follows:
March 11---A little after II, we had
beautiful spectacle; an enemf air
plane was brought down by one of
our own planes just in front of our
third line.
"The French plane was mounted by
a lieutenant who had been struck by
three balls, one in the left arm;
one in the right hand and rebound
ing one which had lodged in his breast.
I'm spite of his wounds the French
lieutenant gamely held out and all
but succeeded i'll passing our lines
before he was forced to drop to the
ground. The moment his machine
reached EARTH the lieutenant leaped
out, but was quickly arrested. They
say he was terribly chagrined at his
capture A moment afterwards the

BANKS URGED To SEND
IN REPORTS At ONCE

ATLANTA, Ca, April 2S.-All
banks in the Sixth Federal Reserve
district have been requested by Joseph
A McCord, governor of the Federal
Reserve Bank of the district, to re-
port their Liberty Bond subscriptions
directly to the Federal Reserve Bank
in Atlanta, or, if they are in the terri
tory controlled by the New Orleans
branch, to that point.
THE reason for this request has
been explained at length in special
bulletin as follows:
1.-the Sixth Federal Reserve dis
trict has been allotted quota OF
ninety million dollars of third Liberty
Loan. To sell this amount OF bonds
it is necessary that quota be allotted
to each county and city in the district,
and such quotas are being allotted on
a basis of ten per cent of the bank
ing resources; that is, surplus, un-
divided profits, including deposits and
other resources, excepting, of course,
national bank circulation and redis-
counts on bills payable. 1t is neces-
sary, therefore, for your subscription
to be direct to the Federal Reserve
Bank in order that your bank ana
your county may receive credit. Sub
scriptions sent to other banks in 9TH
err cities will be credited to sucn
cities and to yours.
2. There has been tendency In
previous campaigns to delay report
ing subscription until the campaign
has practically closed. This causes
congestion and confusion in the ac-
counting department of the bank, and
prevents the Liberty Loan committee
from knowing how the campaign is
progressing in different parts OF the
district 1t is suggested that Sub
scription be sent in at the end of each
week in order to prevent conges-
ton and to give the information de-
sired so that the Liberty Loan COM
mittee will know how to prosecute
its work to reach the desired goal.
Send in memoranda covering sub
scriptions obtained during the week;
do not include previous report.
8. Your subscriptions should be
sent direct to the Federal Reserve
Bank of Atlanta Tor its New Orleans
branch) but if you do not desire to
deposit and you do desire that your
correspondent bank get the benefit
Of the deposit you may arrange with
your correspondent bank to settle with
the Federal Reserve Bank for your
subscriptions; such settlement will
be affected between your correspond
ent bank and the Federal Reserve
Bank in any way that you may direct
your correspondent bank to make set
Element in manner mutually agree
able and in conformity with treasury
department regulations.
1t is earnestly requested that banks
will be governed by this request,
which will asst the Federal Reserve
Bank, materially in taking care OF
subscriptions, and will aid in prompt
delivery of bonds, and materially aid
the Liberty Bond committee in con-
Quoting the campaign.
