The other day the Dispatch had
something to say about the burning OF
negro churches and school buildings
in Putnam county. The word had
hardly had time to reach the people
cf Georgia that such a wholesale de
struction of negro property had been
carried out before another report
comes that the white are right behind
the criminals and are replacing the
lost buildings
Regarding this thing the Savannah
Morning News comments sensibly in
the following;
The white people held a mass
meeting, put more than $1,1OO on
the table in cash as reward for
the arrest of the firebugs, $4,000
toward rebuilding the burned
churrhes. Is it possible that finite
people in Georgia could do any
such thing? Why, the New York
Sun and the Chicago Tribune
just won't know what to say
Even negroes were present at
the mass meeting of white folks.
This incident at Eatonton, and
the plain desire of the good
people of Putnam county have it
understood that some irrespon-
sible person burned the churches
and that the white people gen
orally not only condemn the act
but want the guilty person punish
ed and are willing to- pay for re-
building the churches-all this is
a very fine sign of the times,
1t offers opportunity to show to
the Northern press and people
who are eager to find something
to criticise about the South, that
there is something down here in
the relation of the races that is
worthy Of strongest commenda-
ton.
Sometimes it seems that the
effort of some persons in the North
to keep the bloody shirt waving is
founded on the economic fear
that it is now the Souths turn
for remarkable development, the
war having shown the whole ma
ton what the South has, what
it can do. and how it can serve
the whole nation if only it is per
mitted to do so. Ii is a plain fact
that the South is coming into
its own. and no amount Of silly
criticism and unfounded charges
is going to prevent. At the same
time it is very welcome news
when. after negroes have suffer
ed an unjust injury, the white
people of the county in which the
injury occurred. set together de-
termine that the person guilty of
inflicting the injury shall be
punished and that it shall be re-
paired as quickly as can be,

Private George Dilboy, of Boston,
member OF Company H, 10Sd Infantry,
vas one of the heroes Of the Marn9
who gave his life for his country in ths
start of the great allied offensive that
gon the war.
His regiment was part of the TweI'
.y.sixth division, which took part in
he great drive through Belleau Wood
which began on July IS. On the first
lay of the fight Private Dilboy made
name for himself that will live in
American history.
A railroad embankment along lit
lie stream near the town of Belleau
was the objective of Dilboy's platoon.
You remember how Overwhelmingly
the doughboys carried everything be-
lore them. Dilboy's platoon reached
the embankment, and there halted.
Young Dilboy was selected by his
platoon leader to accompany him on
accommodating expedition over the
ground beyond the railroad. They
climbed the embankment, but no soOn-
sr had their heads appeared over the
.op than German machine gun post
I'd 100 yards away opened up on them.
Yelling defiance at the Huns, Dilboy
stood up on the railroad track, exposed
10 the view Of the Germans, and open
ed fire on them with his rifle, while
the bullets rang against the rails be.
ueath his feet.
Apparently, however his fire had no
effect on the Hun machine gun crew.
'I'll get EN-, Sergeant" he yelled to
his platoon commander, and, with his
bayonet fixed, paying no more stten.
ton to the bullets flying about him
than as If they were hailstones he
rushed down the embankment and
changed ahead through wheat field
toward the gun emplacement
For IS yards Dilboy dashed ahead
dnhurt. Then a piece of shrapnel
struck him in the right leg just above
the knee, nearly severing the leg. A.
the same time several bullets lodged
IN various parts of the body.
The brave soldier dropped and
Itretched out on his stomach, but,
with undaunted courage" TO use Gen.
eral Pershing's own words, he kept up
continual stream Of bullets into the
German position with his rifle. Ly-
ing there in the wheat field, this seri.
ously wounded hero killed two of the

Bulgarian against the Greek. and
American championship alone has
blocked the way to the reunifcation
of the Hellenic race. We have told
the Greeks they could not have Korit-
"a in Albania because the people are
Albanian and we have insisted upon
this, despite the fact that the people
themselves have demanded Greek cit
izenship. We have insisted upon
creating a corridor cutting on the
Greeks at Adrianople from their
brethren in Saloniki in order that
Bulgaria might take the air at Dedia-
Catch. We have found pleasure in
Italian support where we have op-
posed the Greeks. only to discover
that when the Greeks had been black
mailed into making satisfactory oon-
cessions, the Italians. too, forsook us
and supported the Greek cause.
The eastern question is eternal. 1t
is as unlikely that 1t will be settled
at Paris now as 1t was impossible
that it should be settled by the Con-
gress of Berlin or by that other Paris
gathering which followed the Cri-
mean war Bl' it is worth recalling
that on the lands now claimed for
Greece there once lived in peace and
in prosperity a portion of a Greek
world and that if no solution now
promises absolute security there is on
the other hand no visible settlement
which gives greater promise, and,
moreover, to restore Constantinople to
the ancient Greeks would be to re-
turn a city. which after five CEN
turies of Turkish rule has preserved
in no small measure it's ancient Hell
lenic character.

The banking and currency commit

House has passed one bill designed
to facilitate the marketing of readily
marketable non-perishable staples,

ereases to, 20 per cent Of capital and
surplus, the amount that the national
bank may loan to one person. firm
or corporation on such commodities
when the notes are secured by ware
house receipts or shipping documents.
But this legislation is not expected
actually to increase bank loans as it
is made necessary by certain rulings
Of the controller of the currency with
regard to the form Of financing the
cotton and other crops.
The cotton crop, for instance. has

largely by sight drafts, and the con-

these transactions really have been
loans and should not extend beyond

are given a future date Of maturity.

act, are in the nature Of amendments
