Brunswick Man Has
Long Military Record

BRUNSWICK, Ca, April g.
Sergeant Llywelyn Maxon, Of this
city, has a military record which
does him credit and probably few
can show it's equal. Mr.. Maxon
served in the United States army
thirty years and some time ago was
given his discharge at Barranca,
Florida.
Sergeant Maxon's discharge COM
mends him highly for his service
and shows that from July 20, 1891,
to July %, 1895, he was in the
Twenty-second infantry. From Sep
TENDER IA, 1896, to September 49,,
1899, in the Ninth infantry; from
September IA, 1899. to August g.,
1900, was also in the Ninth infan-
try. He was post non-commissioner
from August 4, 1900 to January
10, 1917.
Double time has been credited for
foreign service. He has served in
China, Cuba, Philippine islands. He
was at the battle of San Juan Hill,
while serving in the Ninth infantry;
China relief expedition in 1900, and
has held important minor positions
and offices in commissary and quar-
termaster departments in both the
United States and foreign posses

BIG DEMAND FOR EASTER
ROCKS FELT IN CHICAGO
GERMANY IN GOOD
ECONOMIC SHAPE
BY GEORGE WHITE

Especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal ard
Chicago Daily News--Copyright. 1929
BERLIN, April 6.-Economically
and politically Germany is in much
better shape on the eve Of the Genoa
conference than she has been since
the revolution. The dangerous
winter months and especially March
have passed without the labor
trouble that marked the same season
in former years. The Wirth cabinet
still stands although a number of
severe attacks have been made upon
it.
AS the German delegation leaves
for Genoa with the chancellor at its
head the German people and news
papers Of all political compilations
agree in being to a certain extent
optimistic as to the results Of the
conference. This is chiefly because
for the first time soviet Russia is to
take part and everybody here is full
of hope as to the commercial and
political advantages Germany will
get out of Russia once that country
is on her feet again and is of i'm
portance as an Independent entity in
European economic life.
The writer has talked with a num-
Der of economists and financiers
recently with a view to getting the
opinions of men that count as to
what might be expected from the
Genoa conference.
"We realize" said a well-known
German writer on economic sub
jects, that Russia will have a front
seat at Genoa and that Germany
will have to take a back seat but
the destinies of both countries are
so closely interviewer that every
gain Russia makes will eventually
benefit us. Russia also realizes
that as her foreign commissar, M.
Tchitcherin, admitted when he
passed through Berlin few days
ago on his way to Genoa. We ex-
pect that Prime Minister Lloyd
George will also take this view as
his speech on Tuesday and his gen.
eral policy toward France would
seem to indicate. Italy in recent
months has adopted a friendly point
Of view toward Germany and as a
result we feel that she will help us
in our efforts to have our economic
difficulties recognized and to be
granted such notifications in the
reparations terms as are justified by
actua, conditions.
1T has been repeated over and
over again how dismayed we are at
the absence of the United States
conference but we expect that
another meeting will follow that at
Genoa and we hope that then the
United States will be represented"
