NAVY MAY HAVE TO
 STOP EXPERIMENTS
Unless Appropriation Is Increased, Air Program for Year Cannot
 Be Carried Out.

Washington, June 12.-Abandon- ment of the Navy's extensive plans for experimenting with rigid and non- rigid types of lighter than-air flying machines was said by naval officers today to be presaged by the action of the house naval affairs committee in cutting the aviation appropriation for the Navy from $45,00O,OOO to $15,O O00- 900.
 Secretary Daniels expressed hope that the senate committee would re- wise the appropriation upward, saying:
 ''Wc hNd outlined a program for the coming year that would have placed the United States Navy on a footing with other navies of the world with regard to aviation and if followed up consistently for the next few years probably would have made the United States the leader in the field Of naval aviation. If we are limited to the sum set in the house bill, we will hardly be able to benefit from the les sons learned from the NC-4's flight across the Atlantic and will certainly not he able to carry on the experi- ments with aircraft of the Zeppelin type that we had planned"

HUNS MUST PAY WELL
While Some Minor Concessions May Be Made, Opinion Is That Burden Will Not Be frightened Much.
(By The Associated Press)

There is an evident impression in Paris that the allied reply to the Ger man counter proposals which will probably be ready late Saturday night will refuse the German request for important alterations in the terms of peace. The Germans will be given five days in which to make up their minds as to their course. Thus final action by them on the treaty may be expected about next Thursday.
 While the Council of Four will probably explain the provisions of the treaty and may grant some minor con- sessions, 1t appears there are to be no changes which will materially tighten the burden placed on the enemy by the treaty presented on May '.

EVERETT was DID," l thought as

air of the city man, was always
faultlessly groomed, and while dig

At dinner l looked at him and a
thrill of pride run through me at

ed by an unaccountable wish that
he were young, very young like
Alice Sloane's husband, yet that he

We had not been in our seats at
the theater but a few minutes when
Rose nudged me:
"There's Mr.. Kemp-over there in
that box" Just then he caught
sight of US and bowed. Everett
turned to see what we were looking
at, and caught him bowling. He
scowled the faintest bit, but also
acknowledged Kemp's greeting by a
faint bow.
'I knew he would be here" Rose
whispered. I couldn't see why she
should be particularly fattered, be-
cause there were two lovely women
in the box with him, also two men.

MOUNTAIN GIRL
COESWITHLOYED
ONES TO PRISON

ATLANTA, Oct. 18.-Would you
stay in Jail if you did not have to?
Do you care enough about your
family that if three of them were
in prison, two condemned to be hang
ed and the third to serve a life
term, that you would exchange your
right of life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness for a cell on the sec
ond floor of the Tower in Atlanta so
that you could be near the ones you
love?
With the quiet stoicism of the
mountaineer, Candassy Crawley
heard the verdict of death pfonounc-
ed on her two brothers, George and
Decatur, and a life sentence given
her sister, Rosa, at Blairsville, Ga,
recently for the murder of Deputy
Marshal Ben F. Dixon in January.
The young sister accepted the blow
without an outward sign.
But when the three condemned
members of her family were brought
to the Tower in Atlanta for safe
keeping. she silently made ready and
accompanied them. She is now with
her sister, Rosa, in the woman's ward
of the Tower, and will remain
voluntary prisoner as long as she is
permitted to stay.
There is no trace of tears, no
sign of any mental stress as the SIS
ters quietly await the time when the
older will be sent to prison to serve
her life term and the little sister,
Candassy will return alone to her
mountain home.

women, women Everett's age were

Then, after we had bidden Rose
goodnight and were talking over the
play, one of his emotional surprises
came again to me. He caught me in
his arms and held me so closely that
l was almost breathless.
"Tell me you love me-" he said
tensely, better than anyone in the
world-even if i am so much older.

I always love you. I want you to

At once he put me from him. My
reference to Leola, although veiled,
had angered him.
Good night, Sandra. I hope you
will rest. WELL" was my answer.

PLAINS TO HAVE
PEACH ORCHARD
OF $1,000 TREES

PLAINS, Oct. 18.-R. S. Oliver
and H. R. MCGEE have just completed
arrangements for entering the peach
growing business on an extensive
scale.
For some years past Mr.. Oliver
has owned a tract of land lying west
of Plains, just outside the city linn
it's, on the Plains-Preston highway.
The S. A. L. railroad passes through
the center of the tract, making 1t
an ideal orchard location. R. R. Nc
Gee has purchased an interest in the
property and will be the manager
of the business.
Arrangements are being made to
begin work on the project at once.
The land will be prepared with a
tractor. 10000 peach trees have
been ordered and will be planted as
soon as the ground is ready. The
trees will be of four leading va
rieties-Elberta, Hiley Belle, Georgia
Belle and Carmen.
There is at present a 4-acre pc
can grove on the place. This will
be increased to twenty five acres.
Messrs. Oliver and McGee are en-
thusiastic over the venture and be-
lieve the industry will prove a great
success.
