WRIGHT CORPORATION
MAY LIOUIDATE

New York, April 8.-The Wright
Aeronautical corporation, capitaliz-
ed at s6,O0O,OOO would be compell-
ed to liquidate if the government
carried out its rumored plans of op-
ening aircraft factories, George H.
Houston, the president, said at a
meeting of the stockholders. If the
government continued to place its
aircraft orders with private concerns
he was confident of sufficient busi-
ness to enable the corporation to
operate until the demand for COM
mercia1 airplanes grew, he said.
In presenting his annual report
Mr. Houston said the situation ap-
piled not only to the Wright COM
pany but to the aeronautical indus
try as a whole. The report showed
that during the last year the Wright
company produced and shipped near
ly s1,5OO,00O worth of aeronautical
motors and parts. The bulk of this
business was obtained from the gov
ernment. The report showed net
profits from operations of s1so,1Tsr

CANADA HAS RIGHT
SECURE BERGDOLL
Draft Evader Admits That He
Travelled From Canada Ir-
regularly.

London, April 8-Canada can ex-
tradite Grover Bergdoll, but Great
Britain cannot, in the opinion of
legal experts of the government who
have been working on the request OF
the United States that England get
the Stacker from Germany and turn
him over to the American author1-
ties. The offense with which he is
charged in Canada is extrad1table,
but his infraction of British law
while in London is not extradiable in
the pre-war treaty between England
and Germany. This decision will be
forwarded to the Ottawa government
with a suggestion from the colonial
office here that Canada carefully pre-
pare it's evidence preliminary to lay
ing the matter before the German
government through the colonial Of
fee. .e'- -'"' : = i @ess 's'-s@
But if extradition proceedings are
successful it does not follow that the
United States will get Bergdol1 soon.
AS pointed out in these dispatches
recently, England and the dominions
are Jealous of the rights British
passport carries and doubtless the
Ottawa government will prosecute
the case to the limit if Bergdoll IS
turned over to it. When the Canadian
law has been satisfied then it would
be up to the United States and Can
ada to decide whether he should re-
turn to a United States prison.
Bergdoll has admitted that he
travelled from Canada on a passport
obtained irregularly.

PLANS MADE FOR
GOV. RELIEF WORK
Of EX-SOLD|ERS
SPECIAL COMMISSION BUSY
Among Recommendations is
Creation of a Veterans Ser
vice Administration to Take
Charge of Government Re-
lief Work Among Ex-Sol-
diers, Also Medical Care.

Washington, April S.-Several
specific recommendations, CHIEF
among them the creation of the vet
erans service administration to take
charge of government relief work
among ex-soldiers and to be headed
by a director general, responsible di-
rectly to the President, were contain
ed in the report submitted to Presi-
dent Harding by his special commiss-
ion investigating the case Of veter-
ans.
Charles G. Dawes, of Chicago,
chairman of the commission, told the
President as he handed him the re-
port, that he believed the recon-
mendations were sound and that they
would prove a satisfactory solution
of the troubles existing in the pres
ent administration of soldier relief
work. Early action by President
Harding on the report is expected.
Recommendation number one pro-
vides for the new agency, and gives
it Jurisdiction over the bureau OF
war risk insurance, the rehabilitation
division of the federal board for vo-
cational education and such part of
the public health service as may be
necessary to care properly for dis
abled soldiers. 1t also asks that a
director general assume charge OF
the new agency with full authority
to obtain necessary facilities when
those already available prove made
quate. This provision would permit
the lease or purchase of hospital
buildings whenever the demand ex-
ceeded the supply.
Number three says that pending
the enactment of new laws, Secretary
Mellon, of the treasury, shall issue
orders to the heads of the public
health and war risk bureaus, author
izing the latter bureau to take charge
of the public health activities anC
personnel engaged in providing med
ical care for the veterans. The effec
would be to- consolidate these bu
reaus under one head by executive
order without waiting for Congress
to act, to risk delay from that cause
The next recommendation prvoide
for an immediate extension and ulti
1ization of all government hospita
facilities with such mobilization o
civilian medical services as ma,
prove practicable.

WILLIAMS CASE ).
GOES TO THE Jury !
PROBABLY TODAY
MAKING THE FINAL PLEAS
Barring Mistrial There Are 3
Uossible Verdicts, AcquittaI
or Conviction of Murder
With Chance of Recommen-
dation for Mercy Which
Means Life imprisonment.

Covington, Ga, April 8.-The case
of John S. Williams Jasper County
farmer on trial for the murder of one
of IL negroes alleged to have been
killed on his plantation was expected
to go to the jury today. With the
presentation of evidence concluded
and arguments begun yesterday it
was believed final pleas would be
completed this afternoon.
Closing arguments for the prosecu-
Howard, former Congressman from
Georgia, while Green F. Johnson OF
Monticello, Ga, chief counsel for the
defense will make the final plea for
acquital. The privilege for making
the initial and final arguments was
given the defense by reason of hav-
ing introduced Williams as the sole
witness for the defense.
Barring a mistrial there are three
possible verdicts, acquittal or con-
viction of murder with the chance
of the latter being accompanied by a
recommendation for mercy which
would automatically change the
sentence to life Imprisonment.
Should Williams be acquitted of
the present charge he would not be
freed as he would be held for trial
on two other murder indictments re-
turned against him in this county in
connection with the death of three
negroes. t.!
