DETECTIVE ON JURY
CAUSES A MISTRIAL

ATLANTA, Ga, April 16.-When
it comes to prosecuting blind tigers in
d real court, where conviction usual
ly means a changing sentence, De-
tective Vickery of this city is a regu-
lar bear cat, but when he serves on
the jury in practice case in local law
school, where students try cases taken
from actual court records, he goes
easy on circumstantial evidence, as
proven by the fact that he tied the
jury in case which they have just
tried, and secured a mistrial in spite
of the opinion Of his eleven associates
that the defendant ought to be con-
victed. The case was taken from the
record of moonshine case in the fed
eral court, where it was claimed that
the defendant was caught in act OF
manufacturing white lightning by the
light of the moon. The defendants at
torneys, however, being smart. young
students, laid such emphasis on the
fallibility Of circumstantial evidence
that Detective Vickery's conscience
got the better Of him, and he refused to
sanction conviction.

SENATOR SMITHS
STAND APPROVED

ATLANTA, Ga, April ia very
strong sentiment is being manifested
among Atlanta business men in sup
port of Senator Hoke Smiths conten
ton that the Overman bill should not
include the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, the Federal Trade Commits
sion and the Federal Reserve Board.
The feeling here, as Senator Smith
contends, is that the president should
have unlimited control over the war
and navy departments to prosecute
the war with the utmost vigor, but
when the civil branches of the gov
eminent are interfered with on the
plea of war time necessity it endan-
gers the business interests of the
country. By experience with the new
banking and currency system as adj
ministered by the Federal Reserve
Board the business men of atlanta
have learned that it emancipated them
from Wall street financial domination,
and the shipping interests are espe-
cially concerned in any measure
which looks to a possible curtailment
OF the powers of the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission.
"To transfer the duties of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, declar-
ed Senator Smith in his recent speech
on the Overman bill, ito the director
Of railroads, even though he has rem
dered greater service as secretary OF
tie treasury than any Of his predeces-
cors, would be to subject the indus
tries of the country to the will, as %
rates and Determinations, Of the vari-
GUS local superintendent Of railroads
scattered from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and from the Great Lakes to
the Gulf. This would place the sta
bility of every industry in a condition
Of doubt which might seriously affect
cur national production"
ITO place the duties of the Federal
Reserve Board" he continued, lin the
hands Of the comptroller Of the cur
rency would shake our banking sys-
tenn throughout the entire country.
which now confidently rests upon the
wisdom of the Federal Reserve Board
as at present organized"

GARDENS So EXCELLENT
THAT PRIZES CO TO ALL

MINGO JUNCTION, Ohio, April 16-
The employees Of steel company here
are out to surpass the record they
made last year in war gardening, ac-
cording to the report on the work
which G. E. Wisener, general superin-
tendent of the company, has just sent
to the National War Garden Commits
sion, Washington.
When it came to award some Of
the prizes the judges found it impos-
sible to decide between some Of the
lest vegetable plots, so excellent we're
many Of them; and so they were COM
PEELED to place number Of them on
an actual basis of war value, variety
of product, workmanship, quality and
general appearance. The general ay-
erage of all the gardens was over 80
Ger cent and only one was marked a
failure. The first prize garden had a
rating of 95; the second 80.
When it came to the third prize the
Judges found three gardens which
were so good that, although they
went over and inspected them care
fully three times, they gave all three
an equal award, with rating Of 50
per cent.
"The gardens were not only an as
sistance to livelihood" said Mr.. Wise
ner, "and decided profit to the av-
erage worker" said Mr.. Wisener, but
we're also an inspiration and fascina-
ton, as well as a means Of pleasure
and healty exercise and education
The plots were taken by men In all
classes Of employment, laborers
skilled workers, clerks and execu-
tives.'

THRIFT STAMP SALE
in GEORGIA IS BIG

ATLANTA, Ga, April 13.-Other
states which have apparently made a
better showing for thrift and war save
itgs stamps than Georgia base their
estimates Of sales on pledges to buy
stamps, while Georgia's figures have
consisted entirely Of actual sales, ac-
cording to a statement given out here
by State Director Hugh Richardson,
who is in charge Of thrift stamp sales
in Georgia.
OF course the states which have
counted pledges as part Of sales did
not count any pledges that were not
perfectly safe, but this accounts for
their very large showing, Director
Richardson explains. There will be a
pledge card campaign in Georgia in
due time, but 1t will be held back UNI
til after the close Of the drive for the
third Liberty loan.
Meanwhile, thrift stamp workers III
Georgia should feel encouraged by the
fact that their showing does not com
pare unfavorably with other states, in
view Of the above facts, and should de-
vote themselves with energy to or
ganization work in preparation for an
intensive drive that will be launched
Immediately after the loan.
