Mayor.

1t is no doubt interesting to to-
bacco growers to know that Repre-
sentative Finis ]. Garrett has in
troduced a bill in Congress to re-
store the privilege of loose-leaf to-
bacco selling. The tobacco market
has recently suffered collapse on
account of reduction in exports. The
bill provides that unstemmed leaf
tobacco in natural leaf, in the hand,
and not manufactured or altered in
any manner, shall not be subject to
any internal-revenue tax of any kind
whatsoever, and it shall be lawful
for any person to buy and sell such
unstemmed tobacco in the leaf, in
the hand, without payment of any
kind. This measure is for the ben
eft of the producers and farmers OF
leaf tobacco. The dealer may not
take advantage of it without viola
ton of laws regulating the sale OF
tobacco. Representative Garrett is
trying to relieve those sections which
depend on the tobacco crop, and
farmers and tobacco growers will nc
doubt be glad to hear of the final
passage of the bill. They should be
protected every way possible. To.
bacco, like whisky, has been made
a football for internal revenue pur-
poses. The more revenue the rneanel
the whisky. and finally the utter
rout of the traffic seems to be al
hand. The way of tobacco may be
the same if the Government con
tinues to tax it.

Death of Mrs. Paul Erwin.

Death came this week to Mrs.
Ruth Erwin, wife of Paul Erwin,
in the home of the family near Polk.
After the illness of her children and
husband Mrs. Erwin was stricken
with pneumonia and died on Nom
day night little before midnight,
March Is, 1920.
Mrs. Erwin was the daughter of
DR.. and Mrs. A. M. Mcconnell. She
was born and reared in and near
Union City. She was a graduate of
the city schools. About six years
ago she became the wife of Mr.. Err
win, who was a graduate of the I'm
ion City Training School. The un-
ion was blessed with four children,
the youngest baby five days old.
Two daughters, Elizabeth and Cath
crime, and son, Paul, comprised
this God-loving household. On Feb
ruary Is, 1920, Mrs. Erwin was
twenty-eight years of age. She is
survived by her own family and her
mother, Mrs. A. E. Mcconnell, Mrs.
Sherman Sutherland, her sister, and
Mr.. Beauchamp Mcconnell, her
brother.
There were many beautiful things
in the life of the young wife and
mother Early she gave her heart
to God and became a membmer of
the Baptist Church. In her child
hood she was one of those gracious
souls known as perfect little women.
She was always charming in the
true sense of ideal womanhood, a
sweet mother, devoted wife. 1t
is indeed one of those mysterious
dispensations which leaves the lit

whether Great Britain was going to

D7Annunzio March
Held to Defeat the
Poets Own Ends
Premier Ciolitti Says Dis
tricts Occupied Are Not
All Slavs, but Are at Odds
With the Fiume Regime
Special Cable to The Tribune

Copyright 1920, New York Tribune Inc.
MILAN, Italy, Nov. 16-premier
Glolitti, discussing before the Cabinet
Monday the action of Gabrielle d'An-
nunzio's forces in extending their op-
erations on all sides of Fiume and
even to adjacent islands, argued that
the Nationalist leader had taken steps
which would only defeat his own ends.
The protests entered by d'Annunzio
against the Rapallo agreement between
Italy and Jugo-Slavia by which the
frontier line between those nations was
fixed were not justified, the Premier
insisted, as analysis of them would
show. Neither was the occupation of
the islands Veglia, Arbe and Castua
justified, he added.
The districts into which d'Annunzio's s
forces have marched, the Premier said,
were not only all Slavs and conse-
quently anti-Italian, but they were also
at odds with Fiume. Therefore, he
argued, their inclusion under dan
nunzio's regime in Fiume would weaken
il because it involved Fumes losing
its majority OF Italian-speaking popu-
lation
The same argument held for the
cities of Susak and Tersatto, Giolitti
said.
"The administrators of Fiume com
mittet. a serious error" he continued
"in anting to obtain a strategic boun-
dars through these occupations. The
1ary thus achieved represents no
security should the Jugo-Slavs not re-
spect the independence of Fiume."
Such 81 failure to respect the city's
independence, the Premier added, was
not likely, because any attempt to re-
take possession Of Fiume would mean
war, with Italy as the protecting
power
Susak, the Premier continued, had al
ways belonged to Croatia, and had
never even been claimed by the Italian
nationalists.
Regarding d'Annunzio's protest that
the Rapallo agreement left the control
of Fumes water and light services in
the control of the JugoSlavs, Premier
Giolitti said the treaty made adequate
provision for insuring their protection.
The Premier's declarations were
heartily approved by the Cabinet.
Resolutions formally accepting the
treaty of Rapallo and requesting dan
l,unzo to submit to its terms were to
ho introduced in Parliament to- day.
Admiral Milo to-day visited DAN
nrnzio to discuss recent developments
II him. Apparently both we're sat
isfed with the results.
