900 passengers (not season ticket hold
ers) were conveyed during the first
three 1921 months. which was ~ per

ing the corresponding 1920 period. The
average receipts passenger In March
were 2s cents In contrast to 23 cents in
February. That increase was brought

WOUNDINC HUSBAND
As He LIES IN BED

Atlanta's newest shooting was re-
corded Sunday when Mrs. Rosa Lee,
twenty-five years old, is alleged to
have fired five times at her husband,
Ada. s. Lee, while he was in bed at
their home Sunday morning, one of
the bullets penetrating his right

hour at which her husband came
home the previous night.

was too weak to be removed to a
hospital, is said to have a good
chance for recovery. The shooting

her husband was sick. When they
did not respond promptly, it is said,
she told of the Shooting.

JOHN. BULL FACES
GREAT EMERGENCY
IN MINERS STRIKE

LONDON, April 4.-Great Britain
today faced the gravest crisis since
the call for the first hundred thou
sand in 1914.
With 100000 coal miners already
on strike and industry in general al
ready suffering from a shortage of
fuel, weekend meetings of the
miners allies showed a decided trend
toward sympathetic strikes.
Regarded as more significant than
a mere strike, labors gesture was
looked upon as threat to force
general election on the country and
if possible, seize control of the gov
eminent.
Government officials believed the
activity portended an attempt to i'm
pose great socialistic experiments
upon the country.
Statisticians estimated that with
an average of four dependents for
every worker, a total Of 100000
persons are directly affected by the
strike.
If the railway and transport work
ers are added to the list after their
meetings on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, the total will be increased by
possibly 100000 more.

Democratic Primary

RICHMOND, Va, April 3-Accord-

Assistant Attorney General Hank, no
man or woman may take part as can
didate or voter in the Democratic
primary in August who voted for Re-
publican candidates at the last gen
eral election. The case in point was
that of l.. w. Graves. of Orange

for the house of delegates but who
voted for Glass, More and Harding.
In his opinion on the the subject Mr.
Hank says:
eff it were true that a person
could vote in a Democratic primary
because he voted for some, but not
all, of the nominees of the Demo-
cratic party in the November election,
then manifestly he also could vote
IN any primary that the Republican
party held because he voted for some
of the nominees of that party in the

problem of government today is not
one of regulation or compulsioh. but
1t IS one OF assistance 10 people who
will initiate helpful action on their
own part" Herbert Hoover, secretary
of commerce, thus concluded an OPEN
ing address this morning before a
conference of southern bankers and
government officials gathered here to
discuss steps for the relief of the
cotton grower and the agricultural
industry in general.
Previously Mr.. Hoover, who met
with members Of the finance corpora
ton and Secretary Mellon in greet
ing the southern bankers, called to
Washington by the treasury depart
ment, had suggested that there were
three acts of congress whereunder
the federal government might give
assistance to agriculture in it's pres
ent crisis He referred to the Edge
law for the creation of export banks,
the Webb-POmerene law permitting
the formation of export associations,
and the law creating the war finance
corporation.
collective thought and collective
action certainly will ameliorate this
situation" Mr.. Hoover continued.
1T all is due to the credit situation.
But the credit situation cannot be
improved without cooperation from
the men who seek to use credit. You
cannot talk of credit unless you talk
of cotton. One of the tasks then is
to repair the broken links in the
chain of credit and that cannot be
done without adequate financing for
those who now are taking the risk"
Bankers from practically all of the
southern states, as well as senators
and representatives from that sec
ton, gathered here for the confer
ence today.
The first session was one of gem
eral discussion, at which much was
said about reduction in cotton acre
age and the ruination that would
come in the south if it produces a
normal cotton crop this year. A re-
duction of so per cent in production
was strongly advocated by A. w. Nc
Lean, a director Of the war finance
corporation, who said he had ordered
this on his own large plantation in
North Carolina.
Eugene Meyer, Jr., managing direc-
tor of the corporation, assured the
bankers at the outset that the gov
eminent wanted to be of material as
sistance in the present period of de-
preston.

conference were Secretary Mellon,
