ATLANTA, March 10. Especially
Solicitor General John A. Boykin,
addressing a meeting of men and
women Saturday afternoon in the
Wesley Memorial church that had
been arranged by the League of Wo-
mep Voters made more revelations
concerning his accusations of con-
nection between certain city offic-
ials and the syndicate of wire tap

an alleged plot by Chambers to get

uty warden of the federal peniten-
tary, for the sole purpose of elimi-
mating him from the police depart
nreats. so that he could make Lamar
Poole, present chief of detectives,
head of the police department, and
Detective Lieut.. T. d Shaw head of
the detective department.
Chief Beavers at the time the Of
fer of the deputy warden's place was
offered to him, took it under consid-
Grafton, but finally declined it. La.
ter c. H. Girardeau, who was then
superintendent of count public
works was given the place.

The advent of the spirit baby has
interested spiritists throughout the

hoax.
Medical men, too, have written
from many countries to obtain physi-
cal facts on which to base scientific
conclusions.
1t was on October /, 1919, that
Mrs. Robbins gave birth to daugh-
ter in the hospital at Dysart, Ia.
Within five hours the child died and
was buried the next day. The moth
er collapsed completely and for three
weeks lay between life and death.
Finally she recovered and return
ed to the home of her husband, d
prosperous farmer, a few miles from
Dysart.

whose husband was employed by

The following March the Robbins
and the Wheelers attended lecture
by Sir Oliver Lodge, and the Rob

Thompson of Chicago, an authority
on spiritual phenomena.
Anything is possible, if you have
great enough faith" is what Mrs.
Robbins says Mrs, Thompson told
her. "So," Mrs. Robbins continues,

JAPAN TOSTAND
FIRMLY ON HER
YAP MANDATE
Foreign Minister So In
forms Diet Budget
Commission

TOXIC, March 18.-(Bg the AS
sociated Press) Japan will stand
firmly on her mandate over the Isl
and of Yap, in the South Pacific,
Viscount Uchida, the foreign minis
ter, declared at a meeting of the
budget committee of the Diet today
in reply to a question by representa-
tive Etsu Jiro Uehara.
The latter asked whether the at
titIde of Great Britain and the
council of the League of Nations,
and that of the United States, re-
garding zap did not affect Japan's
interests, and also whether Japan in
tended to insist on her rights in the
Yap mandate. Representative Ueha-
ra said that anti-Japanese legisla-
tion in the United States was spread
ing to other states besides California
which he decla4ed was probably due
to the fact that the California agi-
persons similarly disposed in other
states, thus tanning a11t-Japanese
feeling. He also charged John f.
Stevens, of Chicago, head of the
American railway mission in Siberia,
with carrying on an anu-Japanese
movement as a result of the clash
ing of his views with those of the
japanese army in Siberia.
Viscount Uchida replied that he
knew nothing of the allegations
against Mr.. Stevens, but said the
government was adopting every
possible means to prevent the pass
age of laws similar to those adopted
in California. The foreign minister
asserted that the trade agreement
between Great Britain and Soviet
Russia was only temporary meas
ure. The interests of Great Britain,
France, Italy and Japan in Russia,
he declared, all were different
and the negotiations of France and
Italy did not seem to progress as
well as those of Crest Britain.
Hitherto, M. Uchida said, Japan had
kept in touch with the Soviet, but it
might be necessary to map out a
policy conforming to that of other
countries. He believed the Moscow
and Chita Soviet governments should
be dealt with separately.
Ten members of the House of Rep
resentatives will visit America this

PLAN FARMERS
POULTRY-ECC
MARKET HERE
Cooperative Sales To
Be Extended To
These Products

Plans have been put under way by
Joseph Perkins, secretary of the
Chamber of Comerce, assisted by
Mrs. Olin Williams, county home eco
nonlics agent, to develop a market
in Americus for poultry and eggs, to
be enlarged gradually into market
for all farm products. They have
been rendered vacant store room
as temporary headquarters, where
farmers may bring their chickens
and eggs, and steps have been taken
to get in touch with large consumers
Of country eggs to whom shipments
may be made when the market opens.
1t is planned to conduct the mar"
ket on the same principal as the CO.
operative hog sales, the only cost to
the farmers being a small commits
sion charged to cover costs. By
dealing with the consumers direct,
it is said, the middl ms profit will
60 to the farmers rJcket, and bet
ter prices, also, than the market, will
be readily obtained because of the
shipments being almost direct from
the farms.
"There is no reason why this
shouldn't be a big thing for the
farmers" said Mr.. Perkins. ut will.
mean cash coming in regularly, with
a constant market for these pro
ducts, to which farmer may go and
dispose of what amounts he may
have without the embarrassment OF
peddling them about the town, and
without fear of overproduction. We
are going to get hold of some coops
and crates somehow, by private
means or otherwise, and get this
market started at once. Its success
is certain, just as the hog sales have
succeeded.
"As a preliminary, we want TO
hear from every farmer in Sumter
county who will be able to furnish
US regularly with eggs or poultry,
ae +o what amounts we may expect,
so that we can begin booking first
orders. Let us hear from tnes1
farmers Immediately and get TINS
market started and the money How

over the idea. II think 1t is, the
biggest chance for service We have
in Sumter county," said she. Tine
people are sending out of Georgia
S25,O0O,O0 every year for poultry
products. There is always market
for these products for those that
are organized to supply buyers reg
ularly, and at good prices. Such
market would rapidly develop into
a big thing"
So all farmers who have eggs and
chickens to sell regularly are asked
to communicate with the Chamber OF
Commerce at once.

Mrs. Robbins says that in June.
Mrs Wheeler went to Chicago, where
she received message that the baby

Baby Restored.

am my Fathers son and have come
to restore your baby because of your
great faith in my Father
''The figure then laid the rema-
terialized bCNy of our'dead beside me
on the bed, and then vanished"
But the child, she says, was warm
against her breast. A little gasp for
breath startled her. She turned on
the light.
"The baby she says, chad the ap-
pearance of having just been born. It
was identical in every way with the
baby that had died.
"Imemdiately we took the infant
to doctors whom we had warned of
its expected arrival, and they pro-
nounced it perfect. I, too, was ex-
amined and the doctors said [ could
not have borne it."
But now it nurses at its mother, $
breast the same as other children. 1t

brother Harold.
Shortly after the arrival of the
baby, Mrs Robbins and Mrs. Wheel

of forming a spirit colony as sign
of faith and thanksgiving.
