Another Blow About To Fail.

the Allied lines further, it is admitted,
but military men here all believe Gen.
eral Foch has had sufficient opportun-
ity to dispose his trops advantageous
ly to Withstand the attack. 1t is quite
likely the Germans will make their

BURWElL NOT

HELP HARRIS
PROSPECTIVE CANDIDATE FOB
THE UNITED STATES SENATE
RETIRES FROM RACE In FAVOR
OF HON. WILLIAM j. HARRIS.

ATLANTA, Ca, May S.-Declaring
in a statement he gave to the papers
last night that he would not be par
ty to creating a split loyalty vote in
Georgia, that it was evident from the
Macon Telegraph's exposure OF the
facts of the colloquy between Presi-
dent Wilson and William Schley How
ard that the administration was anx-
ious and eager that the issue be clearly
drawn between William j. Harris and
Senator Hardwick in the approaching
senate race, w. H. Burwell, of Sparta,
withdrew his name from consideration
as candidate for the senate seat.
In doing so he announced he would
actively support w. J. Harris as the
administration candidate and the man
70 beat Hardwick Mr., Burwell's state
ment, following a conference with pol
itical friends and supporters here, is
as follows:
"Since publication of the reports
from WASHINGTON to the effect that as
be- ween loyal democrats for the office
ioft United States, the president would
kave no choice and would refrain from
injecting himself into the situation,'
l have been considering the race and
have been very deeply gratifed by the
assurances of support have had from
every section of the state.
Developments, in the meantime, as
brought to light by the special cores
jondence of the Macon Telegraph from
Washington last week leaves no doubt
in my mind but that Mr.. Wilson ear
nestly desires the election of Mr., w.
]. Harris and without reservation Is
endorsing him to the loyal democrats
of Georgia.
knowing this to be true, I would
not for the qualification of my per-
sonal ambition, become party to any
division of the loyal democratic vote
under the unusual conditions now con-
fronting the party in Georgia, Feeling
ii is the highest patriotic duty of the
citizens of this state to defeat for re-
election the present Junior senator,
will, with every effort and influence at
my command, in Difference to the
wishes of the president, support the
candidacy of the Hon. w. j. Harris, the
undoubted choice of Mr. Wilson.

FANCY STUNTS

MAJOR WASH AND LIEUTENANTS
HILLIARD AND WARNER ENGAGE
IN SPECTACULAR FEATS HERE
THIS MORNING.

Americas was thrilled today by the
spectacular aerial exploits of Major
Wash and Lieutenants Warner and
Hillard
Three Curtiss machines were in the
air at the same time, and two of them
circled above the city, performing all
sorts of circus feats.
Spiral spins, tail spins, dips and
loop-the loops were common. Work
practically ceased all over the city
while thousands of spectators with
bated breath, watched the daring avia-
tors. At times they were not more
than 300 feet above the buildings. An
enormous crowd also went to the avia-
ton camp to watch at close hand the
starts and landing of the machines.
Major Wash time and again caused
his observers to gasp as he engaged
in intrepid feats, making his machine
go all the ropes.
1t is expected that within another
week fully forty machines will be f1y-
ing.

AUTOlsTs MUST
PUT ON DINNERS
CHIEF JOHNSON GIVES FINAL NO.
TICE AND STATES THAT EVERY
OFFENDER WILL BE BROUGHT
BEFORE RECORDER.

Automobilists who fail to equip their
cars with DINNERS before tomorrow
night had better watch out. The police
are going to enforce the law relating
to DINNERS, and Chief Johnson is CIV
ing just one last warning before max
ing cases against violators of the o.
dinance.
There have been numerous COM
plants made recently, and the au-
thorities have detailed two men to the
sole duty of watching automobiles
without DINNERS and tail-lights, and
in every instance after tonight, cases
will be made again those who fail to
observe the law strictly Attention
is also called to the fact that the speed
limit inside the fire limits is fifteen
miles an hour, with twenty miles the
maximum speed outside this crcle and
within the city limits.
No exceptions will be made and none
will escape. Automobiles who vio-
late either of these provisions of the
traffic laws will be served with sum-
mons, and Recorder Marshall will de-
eide the penalty to be imposed. The
officers detailed to this duty will take
he number of every car that attempts
to escape, and Clerk Eldridge already
has a list of registered automobile
owners in his Office at the city hall.
Positively" Chief Johnson says, this
Is the last warning that will be given

FOuR-YEAR LIMIT
MAY MAY Be Be ABOLISHED
METHODIST MINISTER'S ARE EN-
GAGED IN EARNEST DEBATE
OVER PROPOSITION OF SHORT
ENING TERMS OF PASTORATES.

ATLANTA, Ga, May S.-Methodist
ministers and laymen attending the
general conference of the church now
holding its quadrennial session in At
lanta are up to the hilt in debate
concerning the abolition of the four
year limit on pastoral charges
This is one Of the important re-
visions in Methodist church govern
ment proposed at this session by the
so-called progressive element of the
Methodist denomination, and was
recommended by large majority by
the revision committee.
Ministers opposing the change con-
tend that it will create an aristocracy
among the ministers of the Methodist
church, few going up to the choice
ppointments and holding them against
all other ambitious young talent,
therby multiplying the discomfort in
stead of getting rid of it.
Those in favor of the change con-
tend that four -yearslmit on pastoral
charges has very dangerous tenden-
cy to keep ambitious young ministers
out of the Methodist church, because
they know that they cannot serve a
church longer than four years and
are therefore handicapped at the
start in undertaking great construc-
tive movements.
1t isexpected that the debate will
continue for several days. Two and
quarter million Methodists through
out the southern Methodist church arc
keenly interested in the outcome, as
the four-year limit on pastoral charges
is one of the distinctive and established
institutions OF tbs denomination.
