ARRESTED FOR spssDlNo.
Three Young Men Fined IS and Costs
Of Case

OF Case.
Because they did not keep their cal
within the speed limits. three youne
mon OF this city were arrested Sunday
afternoon by Officer Tom Marley. and
today were fined S. and costs each by
Mayor Wilson. The three we're John
f. F'oitl, Carl Watson and Henry
Doazio. The arrest was made on
West Main street, after the young
men had driven at an excessive rate
up and down the thoroughfare, &C
cording TO the police.
Councilman John ]. Bell also acted
as peace officer Sunday. stopping q
young man who was inclined to drive
recklessly on East State street, and
warning him that a repetition OF the
offense would result in his arrest.
Sunday seemed a fitting day for the
speeders and the maniacs who dis
regard time and the laws governing
the operation of automobiles were all
on the pathways. Fast and reckless
driving was not confined to the streets
Of the residence districts but was also
in evidence on Main street. Two of the
worst offenders were young womer
who speeded across Main street al
various intersections without giving
warning at the approach of the cross
ings. Their reckless driving almost
resulted in a collision at Church and
Second street at o'clock in the eve
ming.
1t is to put an end to this reckless
driving that the city council contem'
plates the restoration of the office OF
motorcycle policeman.

BLALOCK'S HAT
GOES into RING
FOR GOVERNOR

SAVANNAH, May 3O.-A o. Bla-
lock, collector of internal revenue for
Georgia, who is spending the week at
Tybee, authorizes the statement that
he will at the proper time make for
NAL announcement of his candidacy
for governor of Georgia.
Il have, determined to make the
race for governor" said Mr.. Blalock,
and at the proper time I shall make
my formal declaration to that end. r
cannot say just at this time when that
will be. do not believe in holding
one job a ndrunning for another
There are certain things l must con-
clude as collector of internal rev.
enue and when finish them and wind
up my work in that Office l shall get
actively into the race for governor.
Il am going to offer for the COVER
norship as the candidate of the bust
ress element of the state. I think
Georgia is entitled to a business ad-
ministration. | shall ask the people
to support me for the Office on my
record as business man, my expert
ence in public affairs and the conf
dence they may have in my ability to
see that the states business is run
as man would run is own business
that he hoped to make a success Of"
Mr.. Blalock believes there should
be no great difficulty in making the
states expenditures balance its in
come. He states if he becomes COVER
nor the state will be able to tell at
any time Just how it stands financially.
II shall be prepared to strike
balance every night, if needed" he
said. There will be no haphazard
features as to the financial condition
at any time. And having this infor-
nation at hand l will be able to keep
the expenditures of the state within
its income. There should never be
time when Georgia is embarrassed fl
nancially to meet its obligations. The
proper management of it's finances,
and accurate information as to its abil-
ity to do certain things in a financial
way should put in operation a system
that will admit ofthe securing of funds
to meet emergencies and the appro
priating of money to cover ordinary
expenditures"
The announcement of Mr. .Blalock
puts three men in the race for gov
ernor at this time or brings statements

from them that they will make the
race. Clifford Walker, of Monroe, the
attorney general Of the state, has been
an avowed candidate for several
months. John n. Holder, Of Jefferson,
speaker of the house of representa-
tives, announced unequivocably yes
terday that he intends to run and Mr..
Blalock's statement is equally as posi-
tive. Whether others will be candi-
dates remains to be seen. ]. J. Flynt,
of Spaulding county has been men
toned and has suggested that he might
be a candidate but has made no posi-
tive announcement. The friends of
John w. Bennett, of Waycross, have
also been urging him to run, and he
is giving the matter very serious con-
sideration.

EMBARGO TOLD
OF BY SENATOR

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
Hoke Smith has given out the fol-
lowing interview on the cotton en-
barge concerning which he has re-
ceived a number of letters from a
number of Georgia cities.
so many inquiries about the sta
tus of the embargo on cotton and
the prospect of its being raised have
reached me during the past few days
the public should be given the facts.
There is a clear distinction be-
tween the embargo and the blockade.
The blockade against Germany and
Austria was by allied governments
and applied to shipments into these
countries.
Congress authorized the president
by proclamation to place American
commodities upon an embargo, and

ports of the Adriatic sea and into
Jugo-Slavia and German-Austria. This
should furnish a market for a large
amount of cotton, as Austria used
over a million bales annually before
the war.
Restrictions Modified.
"The war trade board has also
modified restrictions as to shipments
into Switzerland, Holland, Norway,
Denmark and Sweden. Until a few
days ago only three hundred thous-
and bales annually were permitted
shipped to all these countries COM
bined. Now the quantitative restric-
lions have been removed and cotton
can be shipped in unlimited quantity
to these five countries contiguous to
Germany.
while cotton still remains on the
embargo list, these notifications
made by the war trade board as 20
81 pments almost relieve cotton from
The effect of being upon the embargo
list The only restriction as to Switz-
er'and, Holland, Denmark, Norway
and Sweden apply to the consignee.
The war trade board still requires
that shipments shall be made to To-
cal corporation created to supervise
cotton after it reaches these countries
with view to preventing it reaching
Germany. | am assured by the war
trade board tn atthese local corpora
tons will promptly transfer to a con-
signee named by the shipper upon
being given satisfactory guarantee
that these consignees will not send
the cotton into Germany until the
blockade is raised.
"The changes by the war trade
board greatly lessen the evil effect
Of the embargo and the cotton markets
have thus been substantially broad

I'VE now need more ships and we
are urging the shipping board to in
crease the allotments of ships for use

For Trial in Bibb

MACON, May 90.-There are fifteen
charges of murder to be tried by Solic-
itor General John P. Ross in the Bibb
Superior court during the next two
weeks. This establishes new record
for one session of the superior court
in Bibb county.
Probably more interest is centered
in the trials of six city detectives
concerned in the killing of Philip La
mar and Abraham Kimbrell, two al
legged highway boys, than any others.
The detectives are in Jail and consti-
tute the entire detective force of Ma
