Having destroyed a considerable
part of the Turkish nationalist army
and advanced so far that even Angora,
he nationalist capital, is threatened,
the Greeks are restoring their lines of
communication and preparing for the
second phase of the offensive. Cen
eral Papoulas, their commander-in-
chief on the Smyrna front, says. "We
IRE not going to let up on Mustapha
Kemal Pasha until we have so com
pletely dissolved his forces that he will
never again be able to put an army
in the field" Apparently Renal re-
Allies that he is being thoroughly
whipped, for he has appealed to the
government at Constantinople to in.
tervene and stop the warfare, How
this can be done is not clear. KemaIs
own government Is said to be aban-
doning AngOre and transferring It's
archives to Sivas.

Either the public health service has
been receiving lot Of false informa-
ton, or the public officials OF southern
states refuse to admit the truth. Re-
Gently Surgeon General Cummings re-
ceived reports that the South is threat
ened with an epidemic of pellagra and
resulting semi-famine, and thereup-
on President Harding called on the
public health service and the Amerl-
can Red Cross to Investigate at once,
and devise measures of relief. 1t was
said the low price of cotton, with re-
sulting shortage Of money, was to
blame. The two agencies got busy at
once, and at the same time in came
the protests of the southern states. In
all cases the state health officials took
issue with the reports of the public
health service, most of them denying
vigorously that there was any Increase
of pellagra and all denying that the
situation was serious or that a semi
famine threatened.

Acceptance by Japan Makes
Way Clear for the Confer

sILEsIA CRISIS PASSING
France and Britain Reach Agreement
and Germany Is Warned.-Hard-
ln9's Plan for Financial Relief
Of Railroads, Farmers and
Cattle aalsers.
By EDWARD W. PlckARo.

With mind not yet quite at ease
m the matter, Japan has sent word
that she will accept President Hard
mg's invitation to the Washington
conference to discuss limitation OF
ornaments and questions of the Pa
citfr and the Far East. But this is to
De with certain reservations. These
are expressed In the closing part of
To&yO's latest note to Washington.
which reads:
The Japanese government have
been made aware through the com
Liltnications and the published state
nent of the American government and
he conversations between the secre-
tary Of state and Baron Shidehara
that the proposition Of the American
government to discuss the Pacific and
Ear Eastern problems Is based on the
close bearing they may have on the
question of limitation Of ornaments.
which Is the original and principal aim
nj the conference, and that, therefore,
The main object Of discussing these
problems is to reach a common under
standing in regard to general princi-
''"+ and policies In the Pacific and Far
East.
IN order to insure the success of
the conference, the japanese govern
hTent deem 1t advisable that the
ngenda thereof should be arranged In
accordance with the main object of the
discussions as above defined, and that
Introduction therein Of problems such
rs are Of sole concern to certain par
ticular powers, or such matters as
may be regarded accomplished facts,
should be scrupulously avoided"
OF course, among what Japan con-
Siders accomplished facts" are the
tession of Shantung to Japan and the
Zap mandate. But our State depart
Dent is confident the Japanese can be
satisfied in the drawing up of the
ESenda for the conference, and there
f"re is now preparing the formal In
viations to the powers.
There is a chance that some of the
British dOminions, which consider
themselves full-fledgcd nations in most
respects, will kick up little trouble
because the British empire is to be
represented as a unit, with only one
vote. Australia already is wailing that
she is entitled to vote as a nation
on the Pacific problems. Probably
New Zealand, and possibly Canada
feel the same way. Rene Viviani and
Albert Sarrault, minister of colonies
nre to represent France at the con.
ference; and Premier BRAND also may
come.
No decided opposition to holding the
conference in Washington has devel.
oled, but the date Of it's opening re-

tentatively mentioned November IL

Evidently Kemai has not been re-
ceiving the aid he expected from the
Russian bOlshevists. Lenin and
Trotzky and their soviet crew are
themselves In hard straits due to the
rapid spread of famine and cholera
in Russia. They have appealed loud
~ for help, but the governments they
have so long fiouted are deaf to their
calls. Even the United States, al
ways generous In response to the walls
Of the suffering, has told the soviet
government, through a note from Sec
rotary Hoover, that any relief meas
ures would depend largely on the
treatment of the Americans held pris-
oners by the bolshevists. This was re-
enforced by note from the State de-
partment formally and CURLY demand
ing the release of those prisoners, and
the soviet rulers already had been told
there would be no consideration of
closer relations with Russia until the
Americans were set free.
The distress in Russia is such that
Trotzky has been given dictatorial
powers to handle the situation, and
all government projects except those
for relief have been suspended.

The Irish affair Is still In status quo,
De Valera and the Sim Fein cabinet
have been studying Lloyd Georges of
fer, but have let 1t be known that it
cannot be accepted until the British
have released the imprisoned members
Of Dali Eireann so that parliament can
have a full meeting to discuss the
plan. The British government is will
ing to free these men If De Valera
will make the request, but the Sim
Feiners feel that for him to do this
would be in effect a recognition Of the
governments right to imprison repre-
sentatives of Ireland. Lord High
Chancellor Birkenhead In a speech in
the house of lords, asked that parlia-
ment and the country have patience
with the trouble De Valera and his
colleagues may be having in Dublin
to reach a decision, and intimated the
negotiations may continue several
weeks.
A recent rumor concerning Lloyd
Georges plan Is that 1t provides for
two senates In Ireland, one for u
ster and one for the rest of the island,
each managing its own affairs but sub,
ject to an Irish parliament in Dublin
In which the members of the lower
house shall be elected ON a popular
representation basis and the upper
house shall have equal numbers from
the two provinces.

Grand Jury
PreSenfmenfs
GEORGIA. COBB COUNTY.


To his Honor, D. w. Blair, Judge
of the Superior Court of said County:
We, the Grand Jury selected, chos-
en- and sworn for the July Term, 1921,
of the Superior Court of said county
in taking a recess subject to the call
of the court, beg leave to submit the
following resolutions and recommen-
dations:
"a We recommend that Geo. B.
Mckinney be appointed as Notary
Public and Ex-officio Justice of the
Peace for 1873 District G. M. said
county to succeed himself.
(2) We recommend that the bill
now pending in the Georgia Legisla-
ture to abolish the present Board of
Commissioners of Roads and Reve-
nues Of Cobb County and create in
lieu, thereof Commission composed
of one man and also providing for
the creation of the bond commission
be passed and enacted for law. We
recommend further that the convicts
of the County be consolidated into
one camp and be employed in the con-
struction of permanent roads and that
the Commissioner of Roads and Rev
enues appoint in each Militia district
of said county one or more persons
whose duty it shall be under the
supervision of the Commissioner of
Roads and Revenues to collect the
Communication Road Tax, in their re-
spective militia districts and use
same or such part thereof as may be
necessary in the repair and mainten-
ance of the roads in the respective
districts.
~ We recommend that the Com
nlissioners of Roads and Revenues
purchase two dozen chairs for use
in the Grand Jury and Jury Rooms,
the Judges Chambers and such other
parts of the Court House as may be
necessary and that the chairs now
in the Court House which are in need
of repair be given attention.
az Our investigation has shown
that certain moneys belonging to the
County has been used by the Com
missioners of Roads and Revenues
upon roads which are not public
roads" While we feel that perhaps
this has been done inadvertably, we
recommend that the Commissioners
be more discreet thereof in the ex-
penditure of public moneys.
(5) We recommend that the perma-
nent construction work now being
done on the Dixie Highway be extern
ded and completed with hard sur
face to Love Street in the town of
Smyrna as per the original contract
with the State Highway Commission.
(6) We recommend that these res
: olutions and recommendations be
published for one issue in the three
county papers, namely, the Marietta
Journal, the Cobb County Times and
the Four County Post and that they
be paid therefor one rate and it be
divided in the usual way.

action.
Premier Lloyd George, on his part,
consented to meeting Of experts to
examine into the SIlesian problem, and
also conciliated the French by giving
the German government a sharp re-
buff. When France was preparing to
send more troops to Sllesia, she asked
the Germans to supply the transpor-
tatlOn. Berlin sent note to London,
asking If the British Endorsed this
demand. To this Downing street re-
piled curtly that It was an interallied
affair and not discussible with outsid-
ers. British Ambassador Lord DAber-
non in Berlin also told the Germans
that If the French or Poles were at
tackled the British would help in the
occupation of the Ruhr basin.
