Mixed Baby Case May
Go to Supreme Court
Before Jury Trial

No definite action was taken by
Judge Bell in the superior court
Saturday in the mixed baby" case.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. G. Garner, and
James w. Austin, for Mr.. and Mrs.
Daniel L. Pittman, held a confer
ence with Judge Bell, with a view
to carrying the case to the supreme
court.
Trial of the case before a jury has
been set for November 1 before
Judge Bell, but it IS believed that
this will be postponed until a later
date, and that in the meantime the
case will be carried to the higher
court on exceptions to Judge Bells
action in allowing the amendment
to the original ha5eas corpus petit
ton which amendment provided for
the case to be tried before a jury
The case, which was heard before
Judge Bell few days ago, has at
tracted considerable attention
throughout the state. Mrs. Garner
is seeking to secure possession of
Louise Madeline, an eighteen
months-old baby, in the possession
of Mrs. Pittman, claiming that it
is her child, having been accidentally
exchanged at the time of birth at
Grady hospital. Mrs. Pittman denies
the allegations, claiming the baby
is her own.
The child that was given to Mrs.
Garner and which neither mother
claimed, died last spring.

If Stare Banks Join.
Federal ReSerUe System
Situation W/iWB eHelped

Entrance Of additional banks into
that a greater number of farmers
may enjoy the credit privileges and
benefits contemplated by the system,
is urged in communicate adj
dressed to The Journal Saturday
by J. K. Ottley, president of the
Fourth National bank, of Atlanta,
and a member of the board Of direc-
tors of the Federal Reserve bank for
the Sixth district, being the bankers
representative on the board.
Following is Mr.. Ottley's commu-
nication:
ITO The Editor of The Atlanta Jour
nal:
"In The Journal Of yesterday /
read with interest an interview with
Hon. ]. ]. Brown, in which he
quotes Governor Harding, of the fed
eral reserve board, as follows:
The federal reserve banks can
and will handle all farm paper pre-
sented to them by the member banks.
ut is a we'll known fact that the
federal reserve banks cannot deal
with individuals, firms or corpora
tions, except through banks that are
members of the federal reserve sys-
tenn.
In this connection it may be in
teresting to note that as Of Decem-
Der 81, 1919, there were in this fed
eral reserve district (the sixth) 426
member banks and 1924 non-member
banks.
1T appears to me somewhat unfor-
tunate for our agricultural interests
in this section that there should not
be larger number of member
banks. This is particularly true in
view of the fact that a very large
proportion of these non-member
banks are institutions which have di-
these banks held membership, they
could bring direct to their farmer
clientele the benefits contemplated
by the federal reserve system.
THE ideal and the fundamental
program of the federal reserve bank
is to render the largest possible
service to the business interests Of
the nation. Certainly these interests
are largely agricultural. 1t is plain
that if they do not have access to
the resources and the facilities pro-
vided for their use they are deprived
of benefits to which they are ent1-
tied.
THE opening up of the channels
to the resources of the federal re-
serve system can be accomplished
largely through the coming into the
system of those banks which are now
non-members. Yours truly,

MILLION MINERS
. STRIKE IN ENGLAND;
FUEL IS CUT OFF
Mills Close Down, and Econ
omy Is PractiCed- Nom
/ Essential Shipments Are
Barred by Government

LONDON, Oct. IA million
S miners are on strike, cutting of
the national fuel supply and threat
ening the country with industrial
paralysis.
Speaking for the government
Premier Lloyd George Immediately
accepted the challenge through an
official statement, in which he
placed all responsibility upon the
miners and urged the people to CO.
operate in defeating the strike.
Although not scheduled to take eff
feet until the shifts changed this
afternoon, the strike really began
yesterday when the afternoon shifts
failed to report in Nottinghamshire
and Durham. This morning the
sinners, eager to initiate their test
OF strength with ths government,
started pouring out Of the pits like
ants from a hill. Shortly after noon
It was estimated that practically ev-
sry miner in the United Kingdom
bad quit work.
Stats Only Remain
Only the engineering and main
tsnancs staffs remained. These
were to prevent flooding Of the
mines or deterioration Of the ma
shincry.
The attitude Of most Of the men
was sullen and determined. Many
readily admitted the probability of
defeat, but they declared they could
hold out for six weeks, at least. No
disturbances were reported.
r The effect on industry was in
Simultaneous. Despite the fact there
was sufficient fuel in reserve to
last a few days, iron and steel mills
in the Yorkshire district closed vol
UNFAIRLY. It was estimated that Ia
the Tee-side district more han TO-
900 metal workers would be idle
Monday.
An embargo on coal exports al
ready was in effect. This also APP
piled to bunker coal for foreign YES
sells and only coastwise essels were
receiving their quota today. 1t wa"
planned to have transatlantic
steamers carry only sufficient fuel
for a one-way trip, recoaling on the
other side.
Economy In Fuel
Individuals and corporations be-
gan practicing economy in the use
of light. heat and power generated
from coal. Tn accordance with the
plans outlined by the government
Shipment of non-essential freight
was banned. Passenger. traffic was
not expected to be seriously affected
for a few days.
; In his statement, Lloyd George re-
cited the progress of negotiations
between the miners and owners, with
the part played by the government
His statement was supplemented By
speech in Dundee by Winston
Churchill, who severally arraigned
the miners for insisting n flat
wage increase of fifty cents a day,
instead of accepting scale based on
increased production, as proDos ed by
the government
An ominous development was a
statement by the executive commit

DEATH RELEASES
ONE OF II IRISH
HUNGER STRIKERS

CORK, Oct. 18.-(By the Associat-
ed Press. 1.-THE first death among the
hunger strikers in Cork Jail occurred
last night. Fitzgerald died at 9:45
O'Clock, having tasted sixty-eight
days.
The condition Of Fitzgerald and
Murphy had become so grave that,
with the consent of the other hunger
strikers, the prison doctors were per-
mitted to give Fitzgerald medical
treatment A Cork specialist was
also called in.
Fitzgerald was arrested for shoot
ing Private Soldier Jones outside
Fermoy church on September Z, 1919.
Fitzgerald was one of the eleven
men on hunger strike in the Cork
jail whose cases for long time
have been the source Of wondermenr
on the part of the medical authori-
ties. Nearly a month ago DR.. Pear
son and DR.. BattiScombe, the jail
physicians, expressed profound
amazement that the men who were
abstaining from food were still
alive and conscious. At that time
the physicians said that except for
the devotion and care of the nuns
in attendance upon them 1t was GER
tain that several of the prisoners
would long since have been dead.
All the hunger strikers were de-
clared to have been reduced to Sc
we're degree of emaciation. The ia
cial emaciation of Fitzgerald at the
time of his death was declared to be
most pronounced.

WILSON WRITES
HARDING ABOUT
FRENCH MATTER

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Presi-
dent Wilson today directed inquiries
to both the French government and
lican presidential candidates recent
statement that he had been APP
preached informally" by a repre-
sentative of France and asked to
lead in the formation of an associa-
ton of nations.
The inquiry to Senator Harding
which was in the form of a let
ter, was made public at the White
House. At first. officials there re-
fused to deny or confirm that an
inquiry also had been, sent to the
French government. but subsequent
ly Secretary Tumulty announced
that such action had been taken.
Mr.. Tumulty would not say what
form the inquiry to the French gov
eminent had taken nor whether it
had been communicated through the
embassy here or through the Amer
can ambassador at Paris.
The presidents inquiry to Senator
Harding was contained in a letter
given out today at the White House.
The letter follows:
My dear Senator:
In the New York Times of
yesterday, Sunday, October II,
1920, I find a dispatch dated st.
Louis, October 16. which pur-
ports to~report recent public ut
terances of yours. In it occurs
the following:
Replying to criticism of his
proposal for an association of
nations, he said in rear platform
speech at Greencastle, Ind. that
he already had been approached
informally by representative
of France, who asked that the
United States lead the way to a
world fraternity"
write to ask if this is a cor
rect quotation and If you really
said what is there accredited to
you. need not point out to you
the grave and extraordinary in
ferences to be drawn from such
a statement, namely, that the
government Of France, which is
a member of the Leagu eof Ma
tons, approached private citi-
zens of a nation which is not a
member of the league with a re-
quest that the United States
lead the way to a world frater-
nifty" The department of state
has already found the govern
. ment Of France most honorably
mindful of it's international OBJ
legations and punctiliously care
full to observe all the proprieties
Of international intercourse
I hesitate. therefore, to draw
the inference to which have re-
ferred. unless 1 am assured by
you that you actually made this
statement.
Very truly yours,
