HUNDREDS OF BLACKS
FLOCK TO GAINESVILLE
SERIOUS SITUATION CAUSED
IN HALL COUNTY AS RESULT
OF ANONYMOUS NOTICES.

GAINESVILLE, Ga.-The critical
situation which has obtained in north
ern portions of Hall county since no
tees were posted several days ago
that no negro would be permitted to
remain north of the Chattahoochee
in Hall county" were anonymously
served by hand and through the mails
upon negro residents has steadily
grown worse.
The number of negro refugees who
have come into Gainesville for pro-
lection is estimated as running well
up into the hundreds. The problem of
feeding and housing has become seri-
Gus. Trouble within the town is fear
ed unless prohibitive measures are ia
ken shortly.
Critical Economic Situation.
A critical economic situation is re-
sulting from the attempt to drive out
all negro labor. The Gainesville and
Northwestern railroad has been handi-
capped by the loss of all negro work
men. Two large lumber mills, one a
million-dollar concern, are operating
under armed guards in an effort to
retain negro employees. A few farm
CTS nave dI llSu lllSI lClidlllo with
shotguns and maintain regular patrols,
while others are crippled by the re-
sulting labor shortage.
The trouble has its origin back in
February of 1920, when negro was
caught stealing washpot from his
employer. The thief's home was shot
up" by unknown parties. The antag
onism and prejudice increased rapidly,
leading to the burning of negro lodges
and homes throughout that portion of
the county.
These citizens declared that no
overt crime on the part of negroes
was responsible for the outbreak in
February nor for that of more recent
date. They stated that the majority
of negroes who have been forced to
flee their homes are of the servant
class and possess good regulations in
their communities.
Two or three white men in the COM
munity where the disturbance started
have been arrested.

Hundred Million
Dollars Missing
Lost and Hoarded Pennies and
Nickels Deplete From United
States Currency Huge Sum.

One hundred million dollars, mostly
in nickels and 1-cent pieces, is absent
without leave from the United States
treasury. This vast sum OF money
held out by Uncle Sans nieces and
nephews, costs the government more
than five million dollars year and
causes a direct shortage in commercial
coin. So much so that one of the tlrst
acts of the next secretary OF the treas
ury must be to devise ways and means
of gathering in what is now called
dead money"
The director of the mint is kept
busy purchasing new metal with which
to coin pennies and nickels that have
gone. In 1917 the loss was almost
seventy-fve million dollars. Now, to
be exact, it is $98,126, 33638.
In 1-cent pieces alone dead money
in the United States amounts to $685.
o24176.19. The Scent nickel is the
greater offender with charge to its
account of $53,554,754.33. These are
lost coins of current denominations.
The out-of-date specie that cannot be
found and which is made up of the old
Scent pieces and the like amounts to
1914, 405.86.

HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND The FLU
First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk
Purgative With Calotabs, the
Purified and Refined Calomel
Tablets that are Nausea
less, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and influ-
enza can be depended upon for full eff
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
step in the treatment is the new, nausea
less calomel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style Gallo
mel. Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go long way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en-
abling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu-
monia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed

MILLION METHODISTS
CONTRIBUTE TO FUND
HISTORY FOR THE CHURCH
IS MADE IN FIRST YEAR OF
CENTENARY CAMPAIGN

CHICAGO.-A picture of world
wide missionary enterprise on scale
making history for the Methodist
Episcopal church is presented in re-
port just made public here. The re-
port summarizes first year expendi-
lures and achievements under the cen
tenary fund recently raised by this
church
In the centenary campaign more
than 100000 people contributed to
the $108000,000 pledged, it is stated,
Broad expansion at home as well as
abroad is noted Among major teat-
ures of this development during 1920
are mentioned the following:
Work is being done among foreign
speaking people in the United States
by 102 English speaking pastors, 283
foreign language pastors, lOI women
workers and al other special work
erS.
Two hundred and ffty-fve foreign
language students are in training at
colleges, universities and schools.
There was spent $1,093,o794l to
continue work in and near military
and naval stations; to help equip
Methodist chaplains; to promote good
will industries; to provide adequate
ministry in negro districts, congested
by the northward migration, and IN
great industrial centers developed by
war industries; to provide community
centers in rural neighborhoods lncreas-
ed as a result of the war; to promote
AUGMENTATION; and to provide sChOl-
arships for Methodist boys whose ed
ucational training was interrupted
when they went to fight for Uncle
Sam"
Surve wing Methodist endeavor
abroad, the report says that centenary
funds saved the whole Methodist Epis
copal work in China and India from
disaster imminent on the great reduc-
ton in value in purchasing power OF
the American dollar.
At Singapore $4,000 was spent on
the Anglo Chinese school. Chinese in
that city have contributed close to
100000.
Extensive projects have been laid
out for Japan, where the direct APP
preparation last year was $l66,7l4. The
Korean appropriation was $l22,256.
Twenty-six new missionaries were
sent to Africa, marking IAN increase
OF 70 per cent"
Physical relief extended to Europe
and Armenia ran into hundreds OF
thousands of dollars. France, Italy,
Finland, Spain, Norway, Sweden,
Denmark, the Philippines, Mexico,
Central and South America and the
Netherlands Indies received attention.

CHAMPIONS CAUSE OF
ULTIMATE CONSUMER
SENATOR THOMAS DOES NOT
WANT CONGRESS TO HELP
BOOST THE PRICES.

WASHINGTON, d. CA plea
for consideration for the ultimate con-
sumner was made today by Senator
Thomas, democrat, Colorado, before
the senate finance committee, which
is holding hearings on the house
emergency tariff bill designed. to pro-
tect the farmers.
Want to Stick Him.
at strikes me-" said Senator Thorn
as, that some consideration ought to
be given the consumer. Everybody
comes here appealing for help. Ev-
erybody is in bad fix. But the re-
suit is always the same-stick the
consumer"
K. D. Loos, appearing on behalf of
California lemon growers, had asked
for a tariff of two cents pound on
lemons. Senator Thomas inquired
whether, If this rate was fixed, the
growers would not develop monop-
DIV as a result of barring out Italian
lemon exports. The witness insisted
no such effect could be expected, ex-
planning that more lemons were now
stored than at any time in years.
Corkscrews Cheap.
THAT may be true" said the sena-
tor, but that is fine example OF
what is being asked of congress-ev-
erybody who has something to sell
is seeking to exploit those who have
to buy
Some may need relief, but so does
the consumer If the relief you seek
is granted-an this applies not only
to the lemon industry, but to all in
dustries-the pecuniary relief comes
out of the consumer.
"Why, the only things the consum-
er can buy cheaply now" said he,
ARE corkscrews and postage stamps,
and he has no need for corkscrews."
