known also by several other aliases,
escaped from the state prison farm
at Milledgeville, on December Is,
together with Charlie Hays, serving
a 20-year sentence in connection

inal record and postoffice inspectors
declare he was one of the most ex-
perienced yeggmen in the game.
The man killed in Trenton was
shot down by officers who surprised
him in the act of blowing the safe
in a Trenton mercantile establish
ment. A second man, whose name
is given as l.. K. Rawls, escaped

Haywood to Represent
American Radicals at
Socialist Conference
BY GEORGE WHITE

ESPECIAL Cable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chicago Daily News-Copyright, 1922.)
BERLIN, March 21.-"Big Bill
Haywood will represent the Amerl-
can radicals at an "all socialist con-
gress" to be held in Berlin begin
ming April 2, according to Moscow
reports. At this meeting the three
internale organizations will attempt
to reach a compromise, uniting
them to the moderate socialists OF
the world This will include the
Vienna, Amsterdam and Moscow in
females. The last name comprises
Trotzky, Lenin and their bolsheVlst
adherents in Russia.
This peace conference" of radi'
Gals and working men is the result
Of the realization that singly each
party is too weak to accomplish
it's aims and that to gain anything
the three internationale must CO.
operate. The. German social dem
ocrats who are generally regarded
as constituting the government
party are somewhat reluctant about
taking a part in the congress as
they suspect that the present gov
eminent will be condemned along
Win IIlOSL OIL IIlS OLIISIS dI (AC
meeting and that it's overthrow will
be recommended.
So far Lenin and Trotzky have
disavowed the congress officially but
as Karl Radek has been selected to
represent the Russian section of the
third International at the confer
ence it is generally believed that the
soviet government will recognize
anybody appointed by the congress
il Radek should accept it's decisions.

ITALIANS HOPEFUL
Of GENOA MEETING

ROME, March 21.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press.)-As the date for
the opening Of the Genoa confer
ence approaches, greater interest is
being shown by the italian public
and hope is expressed that the
meeting will serve to bring about
the economic reconstruction OF Eu-
rope and lead to a much needed era
of prosperity.
Public opinion here is in accord
with that in England on nearly
every problem to be discussed, but
the Italian financial commission
does not share the British point OF
view on one of the most important
questions having to do with finance.
England is represented as favor
ing a scheme for the definite stabil.
ization of European currencies,
equivalent in countries where ex-
change is much deprecated, to a
virtual scrapping Of the present cur
rency which would be replaced by
currency having gold basis.
1t is remarked that this would
only be acceptable to countries
whose currency has definitely de-
prec1ated and not by others, like
Italy, who firmly believe in the
eventual recovery Of their finances:
The latter countries in accepting
the British scheme would be ex-
posed, it is commended, to a general
crisis, due to the sudden change r.
the purchasing power of their
money. In addition they would
have to face huge expense to put
the scheme in effect, this in Italy's
case being computed at four billion
gold lire.

ROAD To BEF|XED

MURPHY, N. c., March 21.-The
citizens of Murphy and Cherokee
county hailed with Joy the announce
ment issued by State Highway En-
gineer Neel. Of Georgia, few days
ago to the effect that funds are W
available to complete every foot Of
the proposed highway linking Ashe-
Vile and Atlanta. 1t was especially
pleasing to learn that the Dahlonega
to Murphy section Of this road would
be completed by the middle of the
summer.
Cherokee county has the good
roads fever. The work the state is
doing in this section has already
demonstrated to them the feasibility
Of good roads through this noun
famous section, and the benefits to
be derived from such roads are be-
coming more and more apparent
each day. The presence of another
crew Of highway officials in Murphy
will only serve to add fuel to the
good roads flame in this county. O..
f. Mears, p. L. Lacy and E. S.
Pedigo came here Wednesday to go
over the various state projects lead
ing out Of Murphy in an effort to
locate suitable stone for surfacing
these highways. This is not an easy
task on some of the links. TIE
Murphy-Bellview link was original
1y let to gravel surface. but upon
investigation it was discovered that
suitable gravel, natural or crushed,
could not be procured near the right
of-way, and hence. the contract had
to be cancelled. It is now proposed
to build this link of water-bound
macadam, and one Of the tasks of
the highway officials who have just
come here is to find stone along this
road suitable for macadam.
Notla, Beayerdam, Hothouse and
Murphy townships have already
voted road bonds. and Notla town.
ship is now advertising another road
bond election. AS soon as these
bonds are voted all these township
bonds will be sold in lump sum,
and the proceeds spent on the va
rious roads of the county. An eff
fort will be made to have all this
money spent under the direction Of
one engineer and placed on the road
leading from here to Ducktown and
Copperhill, Tenn, and thus give
North Carolina another through
road into Tennessee.
George Prince, of Anderson, S. c.,
manager of the western North Caro-
lima division of the Southern Bell
Telephone company, was here on an
inspection trip a few days ago. He
was very much pleased with the
way the local offices Of the COM
pany are being handled.
Word has just been received here
Of the appointment of B. w. Sipe'
editor of the Cherokee Scout, on the
board Of directors of the North Car9'
lima Agricultural societv and also as
one of the fifteen district vice presl-
dents for the 1922 fair. Mr.. Sipe

Jacksonville Gas
Rate Is Lowered

JACKSONVILLE Fla, March
21.-After a controversy of several
months the Jacksonville Gas com
pany has reduced it's rate to S1.65
per thousand cubic feet. The re-
duction was the result of clash
with the city fathers, who threaten
ed to "electrolize" the city, reduc'
ing the electric rate, and making
provision for installing cooking and
heating apparatus at a minimum
cost. The Gas company was re-
luctant to lower it's rate, at first re-
fusing to comply with the demand,
but attire it was understood that
the ciyt commission meant business,
the rate was cut. In spite of the
fact the commission is going ahead
with it's plans to push the electricity
campaign, and from indications, the
city will be cooking and heating in
the more modern manner, in the
