likely at this time that the outcome

That Senator Thomas E. Watson
may take a hand in both races was
indicated by recent statement in his
paper to the effect that Mr.. Ennis
would be the next speaker of the
house and Mr.. Clay would be the next
president of the senate The friends OF
Senator Watson, who profess to know
his views, express the opinion that he

SENATOR HARRIS
OPPOSES SUGGESTION
RESENTS PROPOSAL OF STATE
OFFICIAL THAT GOVERN
MENT TAKE CHARGE.

WASHINGTON, D. CA petit
ton to the federal government to take
charge of the peonage situation in
Georgia will constitute a confession on
the part OF Georgia of inability and
incompetency to cope with a purely
local situation, in the opinion of Sena-
tor Harris.
For that reason the Georgia senator
would regret such petition. The sub
ject is discussed in Washington, in
view of an Atlanta dispatch in which
it was affirmed that so serious has be-
come the situation that at least one
prominent official of the state had ex-
pressed desire that the federal gov
eminent step in and assume control.
1T would be deplorable," said Sen
ator Harris, were Georgia to take
such a step. Georgia in the Will
Adams case proved its ability to cope
with its own domestic troubles. As a
result of Georgia's conduct in that case
it is receiving the plaudits OF the press
and the nation"
Il do not think that there is any
necessity for an appeal to the outside.
Were it made the nation as a whole
would become prey to belief that the
situation is more distressful than it
really is. AS a matter OF fact, the indi-
cations are that the situation in Geor-
gia is greatly exaggerated 1t would be
unfortunate were Georgia to become
afflicted with such history"

THE CAMPAIGN FOR
A GREATER TECH
THOSE IN CHARGE OF MOVE
MENT IN TERRELL COUNTY
READY FOR ACTION.

ATLANTA, Ga. = Announcement
was made here today at the Greater
Georgia Tech headquarters of the ap-
pointment OF the executive committee
which will be responsible for the sue
cess of the Greater Tech movement in
Terrell county They are:
Mr.. H. A. Petty, Mr.. E. W. Hol-
|lingsworth, Mr.. R. R. Marlin, Mr. W..
A. Baldwin, Mr.. W. G.. Mercer, Mr.
]. B. Petty, Mr.. H. A. Wilkinson, Mr..
c. Z. Rainey, Mr. Erie Cooke and Mr..
c. E Melton.
With the opening of the campaign
for a Greater Georgia Tech, and ulti-
mately for a greater industrial Geor-
gia, civic leaders here declare that the
greatest movement for the progress
and prosperity of Georgia of half a
century has been begun. According to
campaign headquarters, practically ev-
cry community in the state is thor
oughly organized, has accepted its
share of the total sum to be raised
and is rapidly getting under way.
Experienced observers, versed in
Judging political campaigns and state
wide movements of every sort, have
declared that no other movement in
the history of the state has received
such a wide endorsement among the
people generally as the Greater Tech
movement. The principle involved,
they say, is an open and shut prop
osition that Georgia cannot achieve
anything like its share OF prosperity
until the industrial side of its develop
! ment is what it should be, and that I'M
til the state engineering school is
equipped to give the service to indus
tries of Georgia that other technical
schools are giving to the industries OF
their state and the Georgia School of
| Technology is enabled to give Geor-
gia boys the same training that boys
of other states are receiving Georgia
industries can never be properly de-
velopde.
| Some criticism has been directed at
! the policy which has been adopted by
campaign leaders of setting forth the
bare defects, unpleasant as they may
be, of lack of development and the
missed opportunity everywhere in
Georgia. For instance, it has been
brought to light that Georgia ranks
forty-third educationally among the
states; that Georgia manufactures less
than one per cent Of the manufactured
products of the United States, al
though there is probably not another
area in the world of the same size
which is richer in natural resources
In answer to critics Victor Allen, Of
Buford, Ga, who is head of the cam.
paign, declared: The trouble witt
Georgia now is that we are inclined
to cover up our defects and dwell low
ingly on our good points What WI
need to do is dwell earnestly on ou
defects and forget for the time being
our good points" Mr.. Allen pointed
out that unless the unpleasant fact:
which constitute bad advertising" are
given the proper attention they viii
never be corrected.
Every indication is that the cam
paign for Tech, not only in this county
but throughout the state, will be sue

ATLANTA, Ga.-Protest made by
certain camps of Confederate veterans
in the state over the matter OF pay
ment of one-half of the 1921 list of old
line pensioners raises point OF legal
ity which it is admitted by those in
authority is at least seriously debat-
able
One of the protesting camps, that

ton criticising the state pension COM
missioner and protesting against the
payment of any 1921 pensions and
holding in allegiance payment OF the
$475000 already appropriated for pay
ment of what is known as the new
class pensioners. The Townsville
camp has also adopted similar resolu-
tons.
The point made, and on which un-
lust discrimination" is charged, is
that the debt of $475,000 was made q
legal and binding debt upon the state
by the legislature in 1920, became due
and payable in 1920, and, under the
constitution and the law of the state
the money now coming into the treas
ury and which is being used to pay a
portion of the 1921 pension debt is a
fund arising from the 1920 tax levy

THOUSANDS CHEER.

BERLIN.-A notable event occurr-
ed after the funeral of the wife of
Wilhelm Hohenzollern at the Kaiser
Wilhelm Memorial church, situated
amid the gaudy architecture of west
Berlin. Gen. Count Won Ludendorff,
military genius" of Germany, was
lifted to the shoulders of fanatical
crowd and given great ovation: The
national anthem, "Deutchland Ueber
Allies" the rallying song of war days,
rose in a reverberating chorus. Luden-
dorff lowered above the crowd like
some national savior and hero.
Hundreds of thousands cheered him
and lifted him and the flag for heav-
emily blessing and then became furi-
ously indignant because the victor in
the war demands compensation for
property destroyed. If anyone had sug-
gested in that crowd that those debts
were caused by Ludendorff's blunders
his words would have fallen on deaf
ears and his body would have been in
danger.

Cuttlefsh Holds Crew
OF Liner Long at Bay
Monster of Deep, Cast Aboard Caronia
By Sea, Injuries Several.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Cuttle fish
bone is good for canaries, but before
you get the bird feed you have to
kill the fish, and one of that hnny
tribe stood off the crew of the Cunard
Liner Caronia for a 15-minute battle
on the high seas, according to survi-
vorS who landed today. The fish was
cast aboard during storm and before
it could be subdued injured several
men with its six-foot tentacles and
bit the ships carpenter severely.
The Caronia's 1878 passengers
vouched for the fighting fish. Two
days out from Queenstown heavy seas
washed over the vessel. Monday morn
ing, when the rough weather ceased,
the carpenter began a tour of inspec-
ton that stopped in the fo'castle head,
where the cuttlehsh, as long as him
self, lashed out at him.
The razor-edged tentacles ripped in
to his arms as he closed in and at bay
the fish sank its teeth into the bold
carpenters hands. He retreated, shout
ing for help. Man after man turned
back from the faying tentacles, which
tasted blood again and again. Finally
a dozen heavy salts, armed with va
rious weapons ranging from the cooks
c1eaver to the carpenters saw, hacked
down the defense and laid low the
monster of the deep.

WILL USE 5 HUNDRED
OUNCES OF QUININE
LUMBER PLANT IN BERRIEN
COUNTY WOULD RID WORK
Frs OF MALARIA.

VALDOSTA, Cain order to
stamp out malaria around the plant
of the Clements Lumber Company,
near Ray City, in Berrien county,
thirty thousand capsules and five hun
bred ounces of quinine have been Sc
cured, it is learned here,
This, it is stated, will constitute the
most gigantic enterprise in the way of
sterilizing an entire community against
malaria ever undertaken in Georgia.
The state board of health was call
ed upon and sent its engineer to make
survey of the situation. The engi-
neer reported that no drainage project
could give relief for the coming sea-
son. therefore DR.. Haygood, of the
state board of health, went to Ray City
last week and made blood tests OF the
employees of the plant. He recon-
mended that the only precaution avail
able now would be the quinine treat
ment to sterilize the people. This
means that every person in the COM
munity-man woman and child-must
take ten grains of qunine each day
for a period of several weeks. This,
it is stated by the health authorities,
will sterilize the people and relieve
them of all malaria; hence, when they
are bitten by the carrier mosquito
there will be no malaria to be trans
mitted.
The five hundred onces of quinine
and thirty thousand capsules have been
secured and the work of sterilization
will commence this week The Glenn
ents Lumber company is backing up
the movement by requiring every en-
ploye to take the treatment
