COOK SAYS He CAN
MAKE BOND At ONCE

ATLANTA, Ca, March Tt is now
explained by attorneys representing
] w. Cook, who was recently con-
victed and given the limit of the law
for attempting to extort 100000 from
Mayor Asa G. Gambler on blackmail
threat, that he is staying in jail, in
stead of making bond, on their ad.
vice and counsel. They claim that
his bond has been arranged three o.
four days and is ready to file with the
sheriff at any time they see fit to re-
lease him from custody. Just why
they prefer to keep him in jail, in
stead of allowing him the run of the
barber shops and pool rooms, where
has been wont to circulate in years
gone by, they do not explain. Mrs.
r. H. Hirsch, his alleged accomplice
in the plot, who was jointly indicted
with him will be tried on March II.

ATLANTA MAN BARELY
MISSED VICTORIA CROSS

ATLANTA, Ga, March S.-One OF
the most interesting stories of the war
has just reached Atlanta concerning
young man from this city who miss
ed the Victoria Cross and a commits
sion in the British army because q
shell struck him down few minutes
before the colonel summoned him to
receive his well earned promotions.
Writing to E. N. Upshaw, a promi-
nent business man, l.. r. Bailey, a
former Albanian now in business IN
! Portland, Oregon, tells the story as
he heard it from the lips of Colonel
John Leader, a British officer instruct
ing American officers near Portland.
Colonel Leader said:
His name was David Cole, and he
said his home was at 500 Peachtree
street, Atlanta, Ga. He came to my
division with Canadian troops. I
singled him out at once, In a few
days he invented a way to get smoke
out of dugout. Later | detailed him
with so men to repair railway track
behind the lines. On going to see how
they were getting along, l found Cole
alone He said the Germans evidently
had their range, and since one man
would make a smaller target than
sixty, he had sent the others away, and
done the job all by himself. Later
I saw him in trench in the midst
of heavy artillery fire, and at once
l decided to recommend him for the
Victoria Cross and a commission as
lieutenatn. / told him to report to
my quarters. He replied that he
would as soon as he finished the job
he was doing. A little while later
they brought what was left of him,
and we buried him with cross above
his grave on which we inscribed:
Lieutenant David Cole, an American
gentleman
The address given by Cole, 500
Peachtree street, was formerly a
boarding house 1t is is now vacant,
Relatives of Cole, if any, have not
been located since the story came from
Portland.

THESE BULLETS ARE
DEADLY TO PLANES

WASHINGTON March THE ord
nance department has developed spe-
cial cartridges with bullets for ar
NOR piercing, tracing and incendiary
purposes fully equal to or SURPRISING
similar ammunition produced by the
Allies. These cartridges are a deyel
opment of the war, brought forth for
use in airplanes. AS the war pro
vressed the more vital parts of air
planes were protected by light ar
NOR Consequently, it became neces
sary to produce the armor piercing
bullet
The gasoline tanks are particularly
susceptible to incendiary explosions
For this reason it was necessary to
procure a bullet containing an in
fammable substance, igniting upon
discharge which usually carry the
spark or fame into the gas tank after
piercing it.
In order to to enable flying men to
correct their range more readily, il
became necessary to evolve a tracer
bullet This new destructive factor
contains a bright burning compost
ton which indicates the path OF the
bullet by day or night. The compost
ton is set on fire when the bullet
leaves the machine gun and starts
for the enem ytarget 1t flies through
tie air as a bright spark, plainly Wis
lille. Airp1anes are within fighting
range for only few minutes at g
time. The tracer bullet, therefore, is
of great assistance to American ant
Allied flyers.

Sergeant Verne Marshall of Cedar
Rapids Iowa formerly in the ambu-

negie Library last night in support oe
the thrift stamp campaign. He was
heard by 104 persons. Franc Man
gum introduced the speaker
sergeant Marshall gave vivid por-
trayal of conditions in France, and
made plain how there should be CO.
operation here in every particular. He
declared that the more saving there
was at home the quicker the war would
end and the less American lives would
he lost He thrilled his hearers from
start to finish, and at times he had
number openly shedding tears, so
moved were they by his graphic reci-
tai.
Denouncing as pro-Germans those
who frustrated the purposes of the
war by unfair criticism, or by seek
ing to delay the war plans, or by NOT
fully cooperating. He declared that
Georgia, to its shame had one Of the
worst of this type in the person of its
iuniar senator.
He said tat he had never seen as
many fine-looking girls In one town
as in Americus, and that he was tell
ing the solemn truth when he declared
to his hearers that the women OF
Paris did not dress more elegantly for
the afternoon parade than did nsose
here He also declared that Americus
had more fine automobiles than any
town he had ever been in Of its size,
and he criticized those whose auto
mobiles were even then drawn up in
front of the picture theatres. He said
there had to be an end of high-living
here, if Americus did its duty in the
war.
After his talk, Sergeant Marshall
was congratulated by a number of his
audience.

THOUSANDS Of FRENCH
FARMS TO Be RESTORED

PARIS, March 8.-The damaged in
dustrieg and exhausted far mlands of
France it is thought now, may be re-
stored to their full productive ca
lacity within five years after the con-
clusion of peace, with the exception
Of denuded forests and the most gayely
wasted land in the immediate prox-
unity of the line where the front has
been practically stationary for more
than three years.
Thes are some of the elements upon
which they count to make up for whac
France will have lost: Continued
and developed use of female labor in
industries; entrance of youths into
active business and industry at an
earlier age; greater activity and con-
sequent greater productive capacity
OF all eategories of workers; and an
enormous extension of the use of mod
ern labor-saving equipment nthe fac
tory and on the farm.
The development of water power
will contribute immensely to fill the
void industrial facilities while five
years recruits of boys coming to age
for active participation in the coun
try's affairs is expected to replace at
least a third of the wastage in human
material.
