|. IMPROVE SERVICE
Local Officials of the Line SAID
Yesterday That Passenger
Traffic Had Now A b O Il
Reached Normal Proportions.
With Freight Tonnage Grad
ually Increasing.

The long drawn-out strike OF the
union employees OF the Atlanta. Biz
mingham G Atlantic Railroad, which
has been in progress since Saturday
March 5th, continues with but little
prospects of a settlement than was
the case when the strike was called
and while it is a fact beyond question
that the service of the road, in both
freight and passenger departments,
has been serious impaired, LEGAL Off
Gals stated last night that, after
months hard work, the company has
succeeded in restoring approximate
". normal service.
1t was said that the passenger traf-
fic had now about reached the normal
volume, despite the fact that the train
service is still very materially cur
tailed and that the freight tonnage is
showing decided Improvement with
each week Further Improvement -
promised during the next week or So
The union employees are still hold
ing steadfastly to their original con-
tentions. and are pursuing a policy of
''watchful waiting" Local leaders
say that the union is now awaiting
final action by the United States La
Dor board, and are expecting some
thing definite to happen in the next
few days.
The strikers seem to think that the
labor board will soon relinquish all
jurisdiction in the matter, and put il
squarely up to the courts. Just what
action will be taken in that event re
mains to be seen. In the meantime
Brunswick, and other points along the
A., B. e A., are anxiously hoping for
satisfactory settlement Of the mat
ter, in order that normal service may
be completely restored.

possibilities. When intelkgently
and industriouslY practiced, we
will have no cause Ia regret or be
ashamed of being a farmer.
Primarily agriculture was the
only vocation. Farmers r more
ConveniefCes as civilization ad-
vanced, and to provide them other
vocations were developed. No
matter how far we advance tn the
arts and sciences, agriculture will
retain its place as the fundamental
OF all industrial activity. While it
is the oldest vocation known to
man, it is classed with the newar
sciences and we have progressed
far enough in the science to realize
that its possibilities for research
and development are practically
unlimited. While agriculture will
reward the illiterate worker Il
living for his labor, no vocation
offers broader field to the person
with a we'll rounded education for
the full use of his qualifications.
We are rapidly increasing in

country are being developed by
an increasing proportion OF our
population and they must be fed
by our agricultural classes. insur-

President Soon to Select Com
mittee to Conduct Inquiry,
Says White House
Announcement
by Associated Press

Washington, March 27.-President Hard
ing decided today to have an exhaustive
investigation made of the manner in
which the government is caring for dis
abled war veterans. Within few days
it was announced at the White House he
will select a special committee to con-
duct the inquiry.
The President It was said, is deter
mined to lay the whole situation frankly
before Congress and the country for the
purpose of correcting any abuses that
may have developed The investigators
will be instructed to recommend legisla-
ton that in their opinion may be neces-
sary to remedy the situation
Decision to inaugurate an inquiry was
reached by the President after he had
conferred today with Charles g. Dawes

proved. Numerous suggestions have been
offered him. chief among them the
American Legion plan of placing all gov
ernment agencies dealing with service
men in one bureau.
The feasibility of this proposal, as well
as the grounds for numerous complaint
that disabled men either have been de-
MED government aid or have been I'M
properly cared for after entering govern
ment hospitals. will be determined dur
ms the investigation.
Prior to the conference today the Pres
dent and Mrs. Harding, accompanied by
Mr. Dawes, attended the morning services
at Calvary Baptist church. During the
afternoon Mr.. Harding stroled through
the White House grounds with his guests
