first estimate of this product by the
bureau of crop estimates of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture.
ana and below that state in order
of production are Alabama, Georgia,

In the census year 1909, the rib

shows An n-rease in nine years of

.FREELOVE IN
RUSSIA CURSE
OF BOLSHEVIKI
According to Soviet Rules, All
Women in the Country Be-
come Common Property
and Slaves

The veil screening q particular
CO.. IL of the Russian hell was lifted
last week in the United States sem
ate when before the Overman COM
snittee two DEGREES by the Russian
SOvietS under which women become
the common property Of the state
were presented as evidence.
There had been some doubt OK
pressed in certain quarters as to
The governmental degradation OF
women in Russia, men simply refus-
ing to believe that such things were
possible, but the DEGREES of the So
Wet government as presented III the
senate leave no room for doubt.
One of the DEGREES was issued by
the Free Association of Anarchists
at Kronstadt, the cradle of the Boil
GneViSt movement, ard simply ap-
propriates women between the ages
Of II and 80.
1t is not necessary to enter into
this degradation of women or to in
vit9 utter condemnation of the gross
ly materialistic bruteS who today
are conducting the so-called Russian
government.
And yet this is the brand of gov
eminent which some agitators would
like to see established in the Unit
co states. 1t is Instructive Thai
Americans should know what Boil
shevism really is, and the more fully
they understand it the shorter shift
will be given to adherents of Len
inc and Trotzky in our midst.
The deportations, begun by the
government, should be continued I'M
til every believer in the doctrines
of the Bolsheviki, who can be reach
ed, is sent out of the country. We
have been too lenient with such rep
tiles in the past, from the days of
the clustering Most to the present.
1t is time to act.

WAR CROSSES
AWARDED TWO
MCPHERSON MEN
Captain Frank JerVey, at
Charleston and Lieutenant
Boyd, Of Carthage, Tennu
Decorated

An audience of crippleS and wound
ed men and civilians sat i'll silence
Tuesday afternoon and saw two
other cripTleS receive distinguished
service crosses. There was no speech
making: there was no applause. To
the men in the audience from over
seas the ceremony had a finer,
deeper meaning than it had to others
Applause was unnecessary.
The DISTINGUISHED service crosses
were awarded TUESDAY to Captain
F'ra4,k 7. Jervey of Charleston, S. c.,
and Lieutenant Theodore S. Boyd, of
Garbage, Tenn, two patients in the
army hospital at Fort Mcpherson:
The ceremony took place in the Red
Cross house at the frone entrance,
and lasted only five minutes. After
the ceremony the captain and lieu
tenant walked out wearing their war
crosses.
Captain Jervey and Lieutenant
Boyd are the first men to be award
ed war crosses at Fort Mcpherson.
In presenting these crosses Colonel
T. S. Bratton, cmmandiEg the post,
read the citations, and pinned the
crosses upon the young officers as
directed by the secretary of war. The
big Fort Mcpherson orchestra played
before and after the ceremony.
Captain Jervey, formerly of the
OuIl luleiIlllyB was S5INCAl IllC o1o-
tineuishcd service cross for extraor-
binary heroism in action near Les
Franquettes Farm, France, July 2a.
1918. Although wounded five times
when his company was suddenly
fired upon by machine guns, while
crossing an open field, Captain Jer-
vey remained in command of his
&C npany until he became uncon-
scious.
Lieutenant Boyd, formerly Of the
Eighty-cighth aero squadron Of the
Seventh field artillery, vas honored
Tuesday for extraordinary heroism
in action near Contains, France, Sep
TENDER IA, 1918. This officer, being
.2iled for the protection of photo
graphic mission with five other
planes, proceeded on his mission
when three of the escorting planes
failed to join the formation. While
flying near Copflans, the formation
ngaged in combat with five en- envy
pursuit planes. Wounded in both legs,
the left foot and the right elbow, he
displayed exceptional tenacity and
courage by continuing to fire his guns
until the enemy was put to flight.

TRAIL BOARD GETS
BACK PART OF ITS
PRE-WAR POWER
Given Full Authority in All
Cases Except in Regard to
Notes and Issues of
Securities

Formal and official notice was re-
ceived Monday by the Railroad Com
mission of Georgia that the United
States railroad administration has
restored to the hands of state COM
missions all the power and author
ity they formerly exercised over the
railroads except in regard to rates
and issues of securities.
This new policy by the railroad ad-
ministration recently was formulated
by Walker D. Hines, director-general
of the roads under federal control, in
q conference in Washington with rep
reSentatiVeS of all state commissions.
Notice to the railroad commission
came in the form of a copy of Gen
eral Order No. So, which has been is
sued by Director-General Hines, to
all of the federal managers, instruct
ing them to respect and obey the au-
thority of the state commission in
regard to all matters except rates
and security issues.
So far as rate are concerned, as the
order points. out, the courts soon will
decide whether congress had the
power in a war emergency to place
the president in control of rates,
both interstate and intraState. Some
state commissions now are contest
ing in the courts the proposition that
| congress had no such power even in
| war.
In addition to the directions, Di-
| rector General Hines instructs the
| directors of traffic and public service
before putting into effect any rate
| advances of Importance, whether in
| terstate or interstate, to file the same
J with the state commissions in the al
| fected territory for their advice and
suggestion.
The order further directs that
| copies of all rate tariffs heretofore
put into effect under federal control
, of the railroads shall be filed with

PRICE REDUCTION
OF MATERIAL IS
PLAN OF BOARD

Immediate reduction in the prices
OF basic material is planned " the
rev industrial board of the depart
mcnt of commerce in Washington to
reheve the present stagnation of
business and industry.
Prices will be reduced just as they
were raised during the war-by an
agreement between the government
and the representatives of each in
dustry-but officials doubt if they
I will be sent down to pre-war levels
1T is felt that the proper basis
of selling prices for the present will
be found 70 be upon a scale some
what higher than those of pre-war
days" Chairman George N. Peek ex-
planned. However,, the level should
be established On the lowest plane
possible. having due regard to in
dustry, labor and government. 1t
is believed that TIE decreases should
be made at orce by one reduction"
Prices have been advanced dis
proportionately, Peek states, som ?
products having increased as much
as $50 Fer cent. while the minimum
seems to be about SO per cent:
III therefore is apparent" he
adds, that the trouble resulting in
the present stagnant, unsatisfactory
condition of industry is due to the
continuance of the high, uneven, I'M
stable prices Of wartime, which
were IN many instances agreed to by
agencies of government functioning
for war purposes, and not to any
unhealthy general condition.
"Our effort will be to wholly elm
| mate the abnormal unba]ances slim
ulation that business has had and
| the initiated prices that have result
ed, and to start anew upon a nor
nal level, that can safely rely on
the law of supply and demand to
govern future values. Such q policy
will induce at once sufficient buying
to start factories. fill empty yards
and wareroems and renew the inter
rupted building and other pro-
grams"
Organization of the board, which
! is to be made up of six men, will
be completed this week. Two mem
bers already have been chosen by
| the chairman. They are Hugh
| Frayne, as representative Of labor,
