1925 WORLD FAIR
FOR ATLANTA GIVEN
SOUND DISCUSSION

Resolutions adopted by meeting
of representative citizens called by
Mayor Key Friday to discuss the
advisability of promoting a world
exposition in Atlanta in 1925, en-
Enthusiastically indorse the project.
and lay out a course of action. 1t
was decided thoroughly to sound out
the citizenry of Atlanta as to the
general opinion, before pushing the
matter ahead.
The resolution favoring the world
exposition was introduced by Lee
Ashcraft, after it had been moved
that a committee of five be appointed
to call on civic organizations and
prominent citizens, to develop what
approval the plan will meet. Both
motions were carried unanimously.
The text of the resolutions of Mr..
Ashcraft follows:
"Resolved, That it be the sense
of this general meeting that the
holding of world exposition in At
lanta is desirable, and that tho news
papers, and the members here as
sembled exert their efforts towards
advising the people of Atlanta as to
the great benefits to be derived from
such an institution;
"And that a committee of five be
appointed by the chair, to visit the
Chamber of Commerce, similar or
CARNATIONS, and prominent citizens,
to convince them of the good which
might come from such a world ex-
position, and to develop their atti-
| tude toward such an undertaking."
Chairman Gordon advised that he
would announce the committee later.
Atlantians representing leading
business, financial and civic inter.
| ests of the city assembled in the
council chamber at city hall at IL
| o'clock Friday morning to discuss
the proposal to hold a 1925 worlds
| exposition in Atlanta.
+ The meeting was called by Mayor
Key at the instance of a resolution
adopted by council, authorizing him
to ask for the appointment of a
plumber of committees to consider the
question. These were represented at
the meeting-committe from coun-
Gil, the Atlanta Chamber of Com
merce, the Atlanta Retail Merchants
hassociation, the Merchants and Manu-
| facturers' association, the Atlanta
Clearing House and the daily news
| papers.
Robert A. Gordon, chairman of the
committee from council, presided,
and Frank Weldon was elected tenn
porary secretary. Mayor Key opened
the meeting with a statement of why
it was called.
"a worlds fair cannot be a sue
cess" said the mayor, unless the
heads of every organization in the
city, as well as the general public
approve it and show their approval
in a concrete, unmistakab BILE form. An
enormous amount of money will be
needed to finance it. This must be
freely given; the city government
must appropriate a large sum. We
must have, and we can expect, fl
nancial assistance from the United
States government, but we must raise
our own money before we can call
for it,
| On Large Scale
| Mayor Key declared Atlanta must
not attempt to have a fair on a
small scale, that, if it is decided to
go into the proposition, it must be
done thoroughly, in a way to COM
pare favorably with all the other
great fairs held in the country. He
| did not urge the fair, nor did he
| discourage it, but merely en-
consideration before the plan is

New York's East Side have been woven in a masterly manner in the big Fox production, While New York Sleeps which is packing Foxs the atre this week. Realism and fidelity to detail are two elements on which the Fox Film Corporation, the pro- ducers of this remarkable picture makes its bid for the success of this picture. The photodrama is divided into three acts. The first depicts an enthralling incident which takes place in the home of a suburban millionaire. The second episode, gorgeously invest ed, presents in pictures a version of the notorious "bad'ger game" In this act is seen an entire dancing number from Ziegfeld's Midnight Frolic, to-
 gether with scenes from the Palais Royal, a famous New York cafe. The third episode depicts a tragedy of New Works East Side, in which the tense action revolves around tiger gentle, tender-hearted son and the gangster leader of band of thieves
 In this act ocurs a river fight between the New York police boat and a gaso- line launch containing members of the robber gang. The New York police assisted Director Charles J. Brabin to film this scene, in fact the police boot was actually manned by policemen.

 Madame X" will be seen at tho Lyceum tonight and tomorrow. In this great picture is presented the eternal triangle with different angle-the quecrest of all angles: father. mother and son.
 Turned out into the streets through the unjust suspicious of her husband, denied the dearest privilege of a mothers heart, the right to see her son, Jacqueliue F1oriot (Pauline Fred erick) maintained the sacred tradi- tions of motherhood even though the mire of a sordid life retarded her weary steps. Her husband, grown in political influence. became the judge of a Paris criminal court and strangely enough Jacqueline's murder of a blackmailer who would have ruined his career brought her before his bar of justice for punishment. Another cruel twist of fate and Raymond F1oriot. her son. was placed before the bar in her defence. And here the tragic triangle fought its piteous bat tie.
