Paris, Feb. 22.--T.s League of

Minister Tchitcherin's message
through the bolshevik wireless.
The army was assigned to 80 to
wilma and supervise the plcbescite
there In which Il was TO be deter.
mined whether the city. now in the
hands OF the Poles shall be Polish or
Llp4uanian.
Il Is the desire OF the bolshevik
authorities to keep the league army
out of wilma on the grounds that
such action would be a virtual inter.
vention In favor Of Poland
Efforts Are Foiled
The allied troops comprising The
league army first tried to get TO
wilma through Switzerland.
Foreign Minister Tchitcherin sent
a wireless ordering the Swiss radi-
Gals to take action. The radicals
then brought pressure to bear on
the Swiss government and forced II
to refuse passage through Italy.
Again Moscow has sent out orders
and again its orders have been
obeyed. The League may decide on
action this week to compel the mem
bers to give its troops passage
through their country.

YOU MUST REGISTER
NOW FOR ROAD TAX
FAILURE TO DO so BEFORE
FEB. 1ST WILL SUBJECT YOU
TO PUNISHMENT.

A new law was passed by the last
legislature, of which very little has
been heard and very little is known,
is that in reference to registering for
road tax.
Under this law all residents Of the
county between the ages of twenty
one and fifty years, except those liv-
ing in incorporated towns, are made
subject to road duty.
Every person subject to road duty
under the provisions of the act is re-
CURED to return his name to the coun-
ty commissioners, or their clerk, on
or before the first day of February
for the purpose of having his name
listed as a Communication taxpayer.
Anybody failing to register his
name in the commissioners Office as
required will be subject to double tax,
or to double the number of days labor
fixed by the commissioners. Only
srovidential cause will excuse any per-
son who fails to return his name by
the time required.

GEORGIA'S PEANUT
CROP Is RECORD
Yield Per Acre Was Largest Ever
Known. There Were Planted in
The State $4,000 Acres.

Although the peanut acreage in Ter
rell county and throughout this sec
ton was much smaller than in the
previous year the crop in the state
was a record one, according to re-
port recently issued by the depart
ment of agriculture.
The peanut growers OF Georgia
planted approximately $4,000 acres
in 1920, as compared with 100000 in
1919, and $4,000 in 1918, statistics is
sued Saturday by the United States
agriculture department show, but the
yield per acre was "a bushels in 1920
against only rs bushels in 1919 and
% bushels in 1918.
The price Dec. l, 1920-$123 per
bushel-was only half that of 1919,
when it was $40 per bushel, and
$1.60 in 1913.
This, coupled with the great inn
portation of peanuts from Japan and
China, offered at Norfolk at about
4 cents a pound, clearly explains the
cause of distress among the peanut
men.
The average value per acre of pea
nuts in Georgia is fixed by the agri-
culture department at $41.82 in 1920,
compared with $61.50 in 1919, and
S44.80 in 1918.

PROPERTY OWNERS
KICK ON GRADING COST
MANY WERE PRESENT AT A
MEETING OF COUNCIL TO
MAKE THEIR COMPLAINT.

Property owners on Main street
south of Seventh avenue to the Cen
trail railroad station are kicking Wig
orously against the bills presented to
them by the council as their prorata
part of paving that street. The item
of grading is the especial object at
which their ire is directed. They claim
that they are being asked to pay
more than their just share OF this ex-
pense.
Preliminary to paving the streets OF
Dawson and as a part OF the contract
the mayor and city council divided
the paving district into three zones
for the purpose of distributing equally
as near as possible the cost of grad
ing. One zone is from the fire de-
partment north to the Central depot;
another zone is from the fire depart
ment south to Hills warehouse, and
the other zone is Lee street. 1t was
stated that this was done for the rea-
son that the grading would be heavier
and more costly in some zones than
in others, and that it would be unfair
to tax the residents of one zone for
the purpose of paying for the grading
in the other zones. 1t is this arrange
ment that some citizens object to, and
they petitioned the mayor and council
to re-arrange the cost, and to provide
that each property owner should take
care of the grading in front of the
property owned him him or her.
A special meeting of the council
was held Friday night to consider the
matter, and the hearing was largely
attended by taxpayers, including many
ladies.
The petitioners were represented by
Attorney M. J. Yeomans, who assert
ed that in one of the zones no grad
ing was done in front of certain prop
erty, and that this property was be-
ing taxed for the grading done in
front of other property, and that the
result was that in certain instances
the property was almost conhscated.
1t was shown that in one instance a
citizen who had offered his property
for sale for 100000 was taxed 81 1865
for paving and grading, and that about
$500 of this was for grading.
The mayor and council took this
matter under advisement, and called
upon the engineer in charge to furnish
information showing the cost of the
grading in front of each piece of prop
erty.
Property owners who have filed
their protest with the council are D.
Finn, w. P. Shelton, ]. S. Clay, E.
c. Paschal, c. F. Scott, w. E. HERS,
R. H. Kent, C. G. Wall and others.
