real radical" must be done in order
to keep the city and county from fall

request of the government and espec-
tally when it won such a great honor
place on the last drive.
While Chairman Eutts is doing ali

Under the terms of the order issued
bv Judge Beverly D. Evans, of the
United States court in Savannah, or
Saturday, the property of the Georgia
Coast and Piedmont Railroad com
pany will be sold today by Special
Master J. w. Tolbert, of Savannah.
1t will be recalled that the order

with and last night they were inform
ed by Special Master Tolbert that na
would arrive in the city from Macon
this morning and that the property
would be offered for sale at public
outcry at the general offices of the
company at one O'Clock TO-DAY.
Because of the late hour in which
the Bondholders committee submitted
their petition to Judge Evans and be
cause of the prevailing opinion that
the sale is not to occur, it is no:
known whether there will be any bid
ders on the property or not,
The successful bidder msst deposit
ten per cent of his bid with the Spe-
cial Master and no bid will be re
ceived for less than 100000, Re

was placed at $1.O27 0O0

ritory in five Georgia counties and
in several of these it affords the peo
pie their only means of transporta
ton.
Incidentally expressions of pleasure
were heard generally in the city yes

STATUS OF ITALY
IN QUESTION NOW.

Paris. Sunday May 4.-The status
OF Italy as one of the five great pow
er> has been brought into question
by its withdrawal from the peace CON
ference. and it is this status which is
proving a powerful lever in inducing
Italy to accept the invitation or the
council of three to sit at the peace
table again.
The problems incident to the dis
position of the German colonies left
by the treaty to the great powers, 50
il Italy does not resume her place the
treaty would exclude her from par
ticipating in this disposition, either
directly or mandatory.
The text of the treaty has been De.
livered to the printers. with the excep-
ton of some dtails. which can be re-
vieed when the complete printed draft
is ready
Owing to the doubts as to Italy's
status the protocol of the treaty will
be prepared in two forms. Both Of
the Sc forms and the entire treaty will
be printed tomorrow.
TREATY WILL BE
READY TODAY.
President Wilson today expressed
the belief that the treaty could be
delivered to the Germans on Tuesday
afternoon. but the ceremony will
probably go over to give the Italians
time to return if they SO desire.
The executive committee which wiz
launch the league Of nations will hole
its first meeting tomorrow. President
Wilson or Colonel House will reprea'
sent the United States and Italy will
not be represented.
The organization of the league VIII
be perfected and many committees
