That the services of Frederick w. of fire commissioners had not been viewed with satisfaction on the part of Mayor O. F. Curtis for a lengthy period prior to his removal from the board Saturday afternoon. and that while disagreement over the two- platoon system for the fire depart the mayors action, but not the only reason. were admissions made this morning by the mayor.
 Trouble Over Chiefs Car. Just what the nature of his dis satisfaction with the deposed lire board chairman's services was the mayor declined to say. The mayor has on numerous occasions criticized the stand of the chairman and other members of the board on the matter of the purchase of a new car for the chief of the department. Chairman sMacomber was unswerved in his be- lief that q MaFmon car should be provided for Chief W. J. Noble and did not take kindly to the action of the common council in turning. down that recommendation in favor of a Buick car, the vehicle finally pur- chased for the chief. This. the mayor admitted. was one reason for his dis satisfaction, but he remained silent as to the others.
 Donahue Resigns.
 This mornings mail brought the resignation of commissioner William J. Donahue to the office of the mayor In his message, the retiring commis- ,sioner stated no reason for leaving the city board. his letter being brief and to the point, as follows:

 May Lose Parsons.
 No word has been received from Commissioner Fred A. Parsons who is now out of the city. Those who have followed the business of the fire board, particularly as relates to the two-platoon plan, are ofSthe opinion that he will not concur with the mayors view on the installation of the new plan and that his resignation will be the result.

Cardinal of Belgium, During War, Declared to Germany Tn a t Eternal Authority Was Unlawful Eubodies American Ideals.
Declares British Proposals Are Unjust-Only Govt. Irishmen Recognize is That of the Dali Eireann.

Dublin, Aug. 16. = (By Associated at it's first public session here today Ramon De Valera. the republican leader, reiterated Ireland's claim for separation from Great Britain and declared the only government the people recognized was the ministry of the Dali Eireann, the Irish republican parliament.
 Mercier's Principles. the republican cabinet said had adopted towards England the princi- pie laid down by Cardinal 4Mercier of Belgium towards Germany-the prin- ciple that external authority was un- lawful. The Irish, ne said, stood for the ideals. enthroned in the American declaration of independence.
 MT. De Valera provoked laughter by describing the British attitude as that of a great nation demanding guarantees for it's safety from a small one, when it should be big nation guaranteeing safety to a small state.
 Calls Proposals Unjust.
 z The. cabinet had sent the reply it did, MT. De Valera declared, because 1t did not think the British proposals were just.
 Mfr De Valera points to the vir- tuafly impossible conditions surround ing negotiations with the British gov etnmaat for the position, he said. was that of man unarmed facing man pointing . pistol.
 There were people who wanted to nesotiate to save their faces, he con- ti13sod, but the Sim Fein would not negotiate to save faces. but to save, if possible bloodshed and for the right and principle.
 Tomorrow's Address.
 MT. De Valera said that at tomor- rows session, besides accounting the negotiations between tht Irish and British governments, he would in a general way, give an account of his own department and that afterwards the other ministers would give ac- counts of their departments.
 The proposed reply to Premier Lloyd George continued the presi- dert, would be considered in private session All unserstood the ser iouaness of the reply. he declared as the British government intended to mako it an issue of peace or war with9 the Irish nation.
 Alter the reply was sanctioned and ready for dispatch there would be another public session of the Dail Eireann, MT. De Valera continued. Purifier elections to office would occur and then the parliament would work upon the propositions to be ad- vanced by the new Dail ministry.
 Vote Really Plebiscite.
 MT. De Valera asserted that Ire land had at the elections virtually declared by plebiscite for a republi- can government, not because the people were republican doctrinaries but because Irish freedom and in- dependence could not at present be realized in any other way.
 MT. De Valera said that during his talks with MT. Lloyd George the sub feet of the freedom of small nations, which the British premier advocated during the war, had come up and he had told MT. Lloyd George that if he recognized the principles involved there would be no need for negotia- tions-

TO CRUSH LABOR

COLUMBUS, Ohio, March IL
Accusing the National Chamber of
Commerce and organized employers
with being responsible for the present
business depression, Michael D. Cain
president of the Columbus Federation
of Labor, addressing local audience
Of unemployed workers, declared that
conspiracy existed ito bring labor
to its knees"
President Cain said it was the first
time during his twenty-five years
connection with organized labor that
he talked to an audience of unem-
ployed.
THE very men who preached Amer
icanism and democracy to labor dur
ing the World War suffered a change
of heart and started to grind organ
lied labor into the dust before the ink
was dry upon paper used to draw up
the armistice," continued President
Cain.
The only solution to the problem,
he said, is to be found in organiza-
ton and cooperation.

Complete United States Census
returns for 1920 that reached the
Leader last night, place Fulton,
Colquitt and Ben Hill counties,
in the order named as showing
the largest per centage of increase
in population in their rural dis
tricts of any in Georgia.
Fulton increased 37.4 per cent;
Colquitt increased 37.1 per cent;
Ben Hill increased 27.4 per cent.
AS Fulton's rural" population
is in reality an overflow urban
population, Colquitt and Ben Hill
stand first in agricultural devel-
opment.
Ben Hill county's population
increased from 1868 in 1910 to
1850 in 1920. Colquitt increased
from 1879 to 29,332, Ben Hill
was, however, more thickly pop
ulated than Colquitt, having 81
persons per square mile to Col
quits 81. The population
in neither county is compar-
able, as far as denseness is
concerned, to that in older sec
tons of the state where Spald-
ing, for instance, has 104 people
per square mile with no big city.
The proportion of urban, or
Fitzgerald population, to rural
population decreased from 48.8
per cent to All per cent, consid-
cred an evidence that Fitzgerald
has developed better support for
its commercial enterprises during
the last ten years than it had
during the previous ten. Colquitt
county has only 23.1 per cent ur-
ban population, considered as ev-
idence that Fitzgerald needs bet
ter agricultural support than it
has now.
