LURESAILORS
FROM SHIPS
Crew Desert to Take Last
Fling Before Reaching
American Ports.

Philadelphia, March 21.-Intrepid
seamen on American ships home
ward bound from ports in Southern
Europe, who ordinarily do not quail
at the most rigorous perils of the
sea, have recently found it such
rough going" that they would not
board their vessels when the time
arrived to weigh anchor at Bermuda
and resume the homeward voyage.
Shipowners have become concern
ed. Recently numerous departures
from the island port have been de-
layed for more than a day.
1t has even become necessary on
one or two occasions to discharge
portions of crews at Bermuda and
ship substitutes, officials of the
Charles T. Mcgee Steamship Com
pany here said yesterday.
Refuse to slip BY.
The hardy souls enlighten their
anticipation of the long arid spell to
come by protracting the last pos
sihle wet one.
Bermuda, being the last port of
call for vessels bound from Portu-
guese and Spanish ports to the At
lantic coast. is not frequently visit
ed for repairs or supplies. Since
January 1, however. shipping men
say, it is hard to get vessels past
Bermuda without a stop. no matter
how tip-top her condition may be.
Mingling now with the exclusive
winter patrons in it's cafes and
pleasure resorts are almost always
crowds of seafaring men from ves-
sells bound for this country, who
have touched there on one pretext
or another for a last fling with
Bacchus.
Port Omcfals Kept Busy.
Port officials on the island have
been hard pressed to keep vessels
bound here clearing on schedule.
In one instance a cablegram was
sent asking permission to discharge
the officers and crew of a ship
which was port bound" for more
than forty-eight hours after sailing
time. Eventually the officers were
persuaded to go aboard but sub
stitutes had to be recruited for sew
eral members of the crew who re-
fused to face the arid prospect of
completing the voyage

u. S. COMMISSIONER
GLAD KAPP FAILED
(washington Heraid-Public Ledger
Service, Special Cable Dispatch.)
By 9. ID. UNGER.


Berlin,I March 21.-Ellis Dressed.
head of the American commission
in Germany, today communicated
to the Foreign ONCE an expression
of satisfaction at the Ebert gov
ernment's success in overthrowing
the Kapp dictatorship. He indi-
Gated that the American people
would look with as little disfavor
upon similar attempts Of the radi-
Gals to overturn the government
by force.
All such violent, unconstitutional
undertakings, he declared, in a
formal statement which he said he
hoped would have some effect upon
the agitated and angry state of
feeling in the country, could oper-
ate, only to interfere with efforts
to provision Germany and supply
her Industries with much needed
raw materials. The statement fol-
lows. =,
THE American Commissioner ex-
pressed his satisfaction to the
German government on the recent
elimination Of militaristic elements
and re-establishnhent OF the con-
stitutional regime. He is convinced
that his country views with ex-
treme disapproval all attempts
from whatever side to interfere
with orderly and stable conditions.
Acts Of violence and endeavors
to overturn the government by
Unconstitutional methods would
not only imperil the re-estab1ish-
ment of good relations with the
United States. but such actions
also would seriously interfere with
the provisioning of Germany and
the amelioration of the present
unfavorab1e economic conditions
which have been projected and
which already has been Initiated" !"

EBERT CALLS OUT
TROOPS TO BREAK
MENACE OF REDS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.
paraIysis-hundreds OF thousands
of toilers will have to be allowed to
leave their homes tomorrow morn
ing, when the new working week
begins and the 'populace lives in
shivering dread as to what will hap
pen when crowds again surge
through the capitals streets and.
instead of going to their jobs. listen
to agitators and modest troops.
President Ebert is still In Stutt-
CART, and In his continued absence
lies a source of increasing strength
for the radicals who forced him yes
terday to yield-ostensibly. at least
to their chief demands.
Radicals Threatening.
Drunk with power. the radical
masses are showing threatening
signs of breaking away from the
more moderate leaders and insisting
upon making their victory complete
| by establishing a Soviet republic.
| As was stated in these dispatches
some days ago. the happenings in
Berlin are no longer conclusive for
the rest of Germany. Especially the
legions of armed toilers in the
Rhineland mining districts, in the
rich Industrial region of the Ruhr
and throughout Westphalia are ut
terly ignoring whatever bargains
are arrived at between the Ebert
government and the radical chiefs
in Berlin. Even where the Reds
show a disposition to heed the
orders from the Berlin chiefs the
latter have tremendous difficulties
in making their wishes known, be-
cause of the empire-wide tie-up Of
communication.
Cut OF from Outside.
Berlin knows little OF what is 60
ing on in Northern, Western and
Southern Germany, but what little
news reaches here by roundabout
routes Is not encouraging. Many
days of civil warfare appear yet
ahead and some close observers be-
lieve the supreme battle for SUI
premacy between the Reds and non-
radicals Is still to come. The most
dangerous factor is the split in the
ranks of the troops in and around
Berlin. The Reds have throughout
the week shown their ability of ex-
plotting the slightest rift in the
ranks of their opponents. Those
here who see farther ahead than n
day or two are convinced the only
thing that will bring order out of
chaos is a rally of all nonradical
elements behind some nationally
commanding military figure.

FRIDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 10, 1920

day of September, 1920, at his Office
in Americas, Georgia, at 8 o'clock
a. m. for leave to sell for the pur-
pose of reinvestment the following
described property of my said wards,
to-wit:
The whole of lot two hundred two
(202) containing two hundred two
and one-half acres (202 1-2) acres,
more or less, also eighty 1907 acres
off of the southern portion of lot
number two hundred one GOD. Said
lands lying and being in one body in
the 26th district of Sumter county,
Georgia, and containing in the ag-
gregate two hundred eighty-two and
one-half 1882 1-2) acres, more or
less.
The reason for desiring to sell said
land is that the same is improbable
and charge and expense upon my
self as guardian, as aforesaid, does
not yield any income, the same hav-
ing lain out for the years 1919 and
1920; on account of my inability to
rent the same, and the same not
yielding any income to my said wards
it is desired to reinvest the proceeds
of the sale of same in the following
property, to-wit: A one-third undi-
vided interest in whole lot of land
No. 235, also 10 1-2 acres being in
the shape of a triangle off of the
southeast corner of Number two hun
dred thirty-four (234). All of said
land situate, lying and being in the
26th district of Sumter county, Ga.
The said wards now owning an one
third undivided interest, each in the
property last above described, it is
desired to invest the proceeds O. the
sale of the property first above de-
scribed in an one-third undivided
interest owned by myself in said
lands, thus placing the title to the
whole tract in my said wards, max
ing it more convenient for me to look
after and attend to and said property
sought to be invested in will be of
more value and yield more income to
said wards than the property sought
to be sold. This August 18th, 1920.
