Estimate Likely to Stand.

While majority of the line Of
f1cers are said to favor a permanent
peace strength much in excess of the
authorized $4,000. there is nothing
to indicate Secretary Daniels will ask
Congress to increase this figure, and
at recent conference with his ad-
visers the Secretary is reported to
have insisted that the reduction must
be carried out as planned. His
promise to the reservists after he
returned from Europe that all re-
serve force members who desire re-
lease will be returnd to civil life
by August is taken to indicate he
intends to abide by his decision.

C0LQU!T WOMAN
MEETS HORRIBLE DEATH

Moultrie. June 23.-Mrs. Wiley Key,
wife of well known Colquitt county
farmer. met a horrible death in a
runaway accident Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Key with her husband and two
children was making a trip in a bug
gy. Near the home of Butler Mercer
a gate stretches across the road and
Mr.. Key got out Of the vehicle to open
it. turning the lines over to Mrs. Key.
Almost Immediately the mule became
frightened and ran away. Mrs. Key
succeeded in throwing the two child
rem out OF the buggy and they escap-
ed practically unhurt.
A little further on, however, the
buggy ran over q log. This pitched
Mrs. Key from her seat. One of her
feet got hung in the dashboard and
the rest of her body was thrown out
of the buggy. AS the mule ran her
head beat against the spokes of the
wheel. When the mule was stopped
more than a mile away Mrs. Key was
dead. her head having been so badly
mutilated that she was hardly recog-
nizable.
The tragedy occurred near Norman
Park and the news Of it spread rapid
ly throughout that section of the
county.

LEADERS OF THRIFT z
HOLD MEET In MACON

Atlanta, Ca, June 24.-Headed by
Senator Ivan F. Allen, state direc-
tor for saving in Georgia, a confer
ence is being he'd in Macon
today of officials connected with
the thrift movement in the six
southern states comprised in the
sixth federal reserve district.
The Macon meeting is the iifa held
in Georgia as a part of the nation
wide movement to perpetuate the
Thrift habit of the American people.
The organization of savings societies
in Macon will follow the conference
today. A systematic organization Of
employers and employees the manu-
featuring plants shops, stores and
those engaged in other lines Of indus
try into societies will be started as
the first step to extending the plan
to surrounding sections. Later
schools will be included, although
many Thrift societies have already
been organized in various parts of
the state. By Christmas the officials
expect 100000 thrift members in the
sixth federal reserve district.
According to State director Allen
the plan is in the no sense the in
auguration of a new movement, but
will simply be the organization of
hundreds and thousands of societies
to keep alive in the public mind the
means Of saving by Investment in
war savings and thrift stamps. Sen
ator Allen has just returned from a
conference with officials of the
Treas department at Washington,

tributed throughout the state. The

night. The general assembly Of
Georgia opens tomorrow morning
The body is larger by seven than
any of Georgias former lawmalking

created which were entitled to re
personalities. There will be 254 of
these summer residents, representing
about 20 different professions or oc

There are many ex-mayors among
thenumbers; many former presidents
of county farmers unions, and a
notably large group of present or past
commissioners of roads and revenues
Seventy-four were members of the
last legislature and very large per
centage have served in either the
house or senate before.
Lawyers are in the lead in the per
sonel Of the two branches there being

Many combine business so that
there are more occupations represent
ed than are indicated, but the fig
ures will show the general tendency
in earning interests.
An outstanding feature Of Georgia's
incoming solons is their advocacy of
the Rooseveltian doctrine. One man
says he has had twenty children,
which is the record, though there are
others who can boast of thiteen, or
twelve, ten and eleven children. Five
members have families of none.
There seems to be a preference
among senators for seven children,
