HONEYMOON POSTPONED

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hanna, who
were married at Trinity Episcopal
church last Wednesday, will be at
home to their friends after January
10, 1920, at the Shook apartments.
The newly welded couple had
planned a pleasant honeymoon trip
to Los Angeles, Santa Catalina ISL
and other points in the south,
but owing to the heavy traf-
ric and the shortage OF Southern Pa
cific engineers, Mr.. Hanna found It
impossible to be relieved, therefore
they have postponed their much an.
ticipated trip for a short time.

Christmas Dance

If a green Christmas prevailed
outside, the time-honored snow and
cold that is supposed to accompany
the annual visit of Kris Kringle was
represented at the Natatorium last
night when the American Legion
and members of Company B of the
National Guard were hosts at a
dance. The decorations in the hall
were particularly appropriate to the
occasion. Snow representation with
the greens and reds of Christmas
made the scene one of unusual beau
ty, and the dance was a fitting clos
ing of the holiday festivities. The
music was sufficient of itself to at
tract a large company, while the
dancing was one of the most delight
full features. A large attendance
helped make the affair a very at
tractiye and popular event.

SHIPPING FOR FARM AND
FACTORY

The most important duty before
the American people is the estab-
lishment of a merchant marine upon
a basis of healthy development.
British owned ships are today
Flooding American markets with
cheap wool and cheap copper and
cheap tungsten ore, which we can
produce.
One Of the first steps of the Brit
ish government was to establish an
European Chamber Of Commerce at
Cologne and trade with Germany.
The first transaction was fifty
million dollars worth of German
manufacturers for distribution
through British channels of trade.
The National Marine league of
2GS Pearl street, New York, estimates
we will be compelled to accept bill
lions of dollars worth of European
manufactured goods in payment Of
foreign debts to us.
This deluge of foreign trade would
wipe out steady employment of
American capital and labor at home,
can only be met by plans for extend
ing American commerce to the ends
Of the world
That can only he accomplished by
taking steps to place our great new
merchant marine composed of thou
Sands of Amercan-built ships on
sound business and economic footing
to meet foreign demands.
The people of the west are in
tensely interested in seeing the Amer
lean flag floating over ships plying
10 the ends Of the world with Amer
lean manufacturers and American
products of the soil.
American mills will close and
American farm products will Ian
euish in the home markets at low
prices unless we man and operate the
shipping already built to meet the
competition of the world.
But we need a national policy en-
couraging to the American shipown-
er to accomplish this result.

and he will tell you that American railroads are
the best in the world.
He saw the foreign roads - in England and
France, the best in Europe and in other Con-
tinental countries = and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the develop
ment OF the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand
ards of public service by far-sighted and courage
Gus investment of capital, and by the constant
striving of managers and men for rewards for work
well done
We have the best railroads in the world we
must continue to have the best.
But they must grow.
To the $4,000, 900, 900 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years. to keep pace with the nations business,
billions more for additional tracks, stations and
terminals, cars and engines, electric power houses
and trains, automatic signals, safety devices, the
elimination of grade crossings - and for recon-
struction and engineering economies that will re-
duce the cost of transportation.
To attract to the railroads in the future the in
vesment funds of many thrifty citizens the direct
ing genius of the most capable builders and man
ayers, and the skill and loyalty Of the best work
men - in competition with other industries bid
ding for capital, managers and men - the railroad
industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to
managers and to the men.
American railroads will continue to set world
standards and adequately serve the Nations needs
if they continue to be built and operated on the
American principle of rewards for work well done.

More Than Eight Thousand Old

Spectacle of Twenty-Ninth
Annual Meet.
II. S. TROOPS SALUTE
THE CONFEDERATE FLAG
Dozens of Darkies, All Adorned
in Some Part of Grey Uni
form, in Line of March With
Their Old Masters.

Atlanta, Oct. 1o-The Confederate
veterans reunion came to close to-
night with a grand ball at the au-
ditorium armory, but crowning feat
ture of the day was the annual parade.
in which more than eight thousand
old soldiers marched, many for the
last time.
1t took more than two hours for
the line to pass the reviewing stand.
which was occupied by Governor Dor
sey and his staff, Commander in Chief
Van Zandt and his veterans. and Gen.
Lewis, commander of Camp Gordon,
and staff.
This was the closing spectacle of
their 29th reunion. The line of march
more than a mile long was literally
jammed with spectators. who cheered
and wept and laughed as the grey
clad heroes of the SOS passed in re-
view.
Leading the procession until it
reached the reviewing stand, the COM
mander in chief, General K. NJ. Van
Zandt, of Fort Worth. Texas, and his
staff then took places beside Governor
Hugh NJ. Dorsey and his staff, and
other distinguished visitors.
Gaily decorated automobiles, occu-
pied by be-ribboned sponsors, maids,
and matrons of honor, and other Off
cial women of the Confederate organi-
zations. gave brilliant touches of color
to the procession, but chief interest
centered in the veterans themselves
and the tattered and discolored old
battle flags and other war relics they
carried.
The ages or most of the soldiers In
! the column ranged from 70 to 80 and
over. and for that reason, scores Were
forced to drop out from time to time
and retire to the street curbing tc
rest. Few calls, however. were made
| for the ambulances held in readiness
The usual accompaniment of buck and
wing dancing; jigging, and other an
| tics were indulged in by may of the
veterans as they passed the reviewing
| stand.
A feature of the parade of the vet

crate flag by United States troops, q
