WALLACE JAIL
SENTENCE OFF
Judge Evans Suspends
Term Of Lee Court
Clerk

LEESBURG, Feb. 4. - Sentence
of six months in jail given G. A. Wal
lace, clerk of the Superior court OF
Lee county, who was recently con-
victed in the UniCed States district
court at Albany, has been suspend
ed, according to advice received here
from Savannah. The fine Of $1,000
also imposed, will be paid.
Wallace was found guilty by d
jury in the Albany court following
a sensational trial few days ago,
after which Federal attorneys
threatened charges against the de-
PENDANT and others for attempting
to entice witnesses.
In chamber proceedings yesterday
attorneys for the defendant, j.
Gordon Jones, of Cordele, R. R. For
roster, of Leesburg and Judge Ed
gar Cox, of Camilla, secured an or
der from Judge Evans suspending
the Jail sentence.
The case grew out of an alleged
letter written by Wallace to Sa-
vannah woman, which, it was charg
ed, contained obscene matter. The
case was in court for two days and
attracted a great deal of attention in
South Georgia.
Wallace is one of the most popular
men in this county and there is a
great deal Of sentiment here in his
favor.

TERROR OF BLACK HAND
MAY SAVE MURDERER
Feud Victim Shot in Crowd But
No One Will Testify Against
Slayer

New York, August 16.-Joseph Slice
was reported by the police today to
be dying with sealed lips-a victim
of a bootlegger war in the Italian
quarter which has rolled up a casualty
list of twenty in the last three months
Despite the fact that the attack on
Sileo was made in the midst of a
crowd of fifty picknickers at New
Dorp Beach, Staten Island. detectives
were unable to gain a single clue as
TO the assailants identity.
Terror of the .'Cammorra" they said
had so chilled the hearts of the wit
nesses that none could be found
who would admit having seen the as.
saiiant. Two of Sileo's brothers who
were nearby, professed to be entirely
mystified
Eleven of the 19 shootings that pre-
ceded Sileo's took place at or near
the corner of Grand and Christie
streets in the lower East Side. This
corner, the police say, is the scene
of a secretly conducted bootlegger's
curb market
Detectives are also trying to trace
to the bootIeggers' feud shooting
that occurred early today IN tho
Bronx Joseph Lazaro, the victim
said he had been shot by man pos
ing as prohibition agent who frs,
tried TO extort $500 in exchange for

GUARD OF $4,000 men
| FAVORED BY PERSH|NG
Head of Army Impressed and
Gratified After Visit to
Training Camps.

Washington. Aug. 16.--General Per-
xhing, Chief of Staff of the Army,
has returned from visit to Ave citi-
zens' training camps tremendously
impressed" with the training and ex-
tremely gratitied by the enthusiasm.
He intends to urge the War Depart
ment to ask Congress for a larger APP
preparation for the training camps
next year. Approximately 1900 arc
taking the courses this year. and ap-
plications We're received from more
than 10000.
General Pershing will not be salts
fled with less than 10000 students in
the citizens training camps next year
President Harding, he says. thinks
there ought to be at least 100000.
In view of the great number OF
physical defects found in the draft
the general said, the nation would
gain if the courses were made COM
pulsory for every hoy and girl. Many
of the common defects, the general
believes. could be corrected by an in
telligent course of physical training.
Among the citizens training camps
visited by General pershing were
Meade, Jackson, Knox. Grant and
Fort Smelling. The general also plans
TO visit Camp Devens and Plattsburg
The abandonment of many army cam
tonments will not affect the depart.
ment's plans for continuing the citi.
zens' training camp idea on larger
scale.
General Pershing does not underesti-
mate the value of the regular army ~
a nucleus for the organization of a
large field army in time of war. but nc
believes one of the chief functions OF
the regular army is the training ot
the citizen reserve and the National
| Guard.
The spirit of the National Guard or.
CARNATIONS is improving rapidly, M
said. and it is expected that similar
tours of inspection through the States
viii be made TO build UP a spirit OF
enthusiasm and cooperation in the
National Guard.
! The Chief of Stuff wishes to see the
National Guard built up to a strength
OF 100000. He believes that grave
mistake has been made in paying toe
little attention to the instruction for
the National Guard organizations.
He intends to establish a school for
the special instruction OF future army
instructors. He would send picked
army officers 10 take a tive or thres
months course in instruction. so tina,
when they go out TO train National
Guardsmen they will be prepared Il
give uniform courses.
General Pershing is also working
on plans for a general headquarters
which would take charge of the armies
in the field in time of war. This gen.
eral headquarters. which viii be model,
ed on the French plan, is TO be skele-
tonized, but viii form the nucleus OF !

OIL TANK PROBLEM
NOW BEING SOLVED
Applicants for nstaIiation Must
File Blanks Provided by the
Street Department.

The gasoline tank question came up at
the meeting of the Directors OF Public
Safety. yesterday, when Pure Oil CO.
presented an application for permission
to install several tanks in different parts
of the city and to install larger tanks
at some points where they arc wanted.
Street Commissioner Frank w. Pier
son suggested that printed application
blanks be secured for all tanks owners in
the city and that all be required to make
applications on these blanks, whether
the tanks have been down for years or
whether new tanks are wanted. He
said every tank installation in the city
now is a violation of law.
The tanks which are not Installed IN
accordance with the existing regulations
must be removed and made to comply
with the regulations adopted by the
Department of Public Safety.
The board approved .Mr. Pierson
suggestion, and the secretary was di-
rected to secure blanks, so that they can
be distributed among the tank owners.
The tank problem came to head
recently, owing 10 complaints from GER
tain sections OF the city about tanks
being planned to be put in. The adj
joining property owners objected to the
probable danger, and this is the cause
OF the subject receiving so much atten-
ton at the present time.
Mr.. Pierson said he has had an in
spection made OF all the tanks in the
city, having had men go over every
street to learn the location OF the various
tanks. He also suggested that the
different oil companies furnish the Street
and Sewer Department with list OF
their tanks. In this way, he said, il
can be learned how many tanks are in
the city. The results so far, Mr.. Pierson
said, have been surprising.
