Strongest Objection to

The strongest objection to alfalfa

 Against Atlanfan

ATLANTA. Ga, Sept. 15.-'sWhere a person. with Knowledge that liquor conttalnsx poisonous and deleterious ingredient known as wood alcohol. 1t where he knows that such other person will find 1t and drink it., that person Is liable for the wilful and intentional injury Cf the victim," tho Georgia court of appeals today held Tn granting Mrs. Catherine Bristol of Baltimore, a new trial for her 3150.000 damage suit ist.
 Mrs. Bristol charged that Kelley had furnished her with liquor con- taining wood alcohol. while in a Baltimore apartment rented by the Atlanta man, which resulted in the partial loss of her sight. The case was decided against the plaintiff in Fulton superior court. October, 1921, but she later was granted new trial and allowed to amend her decla- ration, Keiley's attorneys appealed.
 The Baltimore woman first charged that Kelley furnished the ;ed poisoned liquor to her wilfull!, but later amended this so as to charge carelessness.
 "A cause of action for injuries sus- tained in drinking poisonous or dele terious liquors may arise either from wilfully or intentionally furnishing such liquor to another or from negig ently or carelessly furnishing it." the court held.

COAL COMMISSION FORMING REPORT ON BASIC INDUSTRY
Federal Trade Body Added By Coolidge To Investigate
 Anthracite, Prices
. By THOMAS l.. STOKES
 (Leased Wire to The AEe-Herald.)

WASHINGTON. Sept. .15.-'Pitiless publicity" Is the slogan of the gov ernmenttfor protecting the public against the constantly recurring evils of the coal ndustry-strikes and skyrocketing of prices.
 A great protective wall of informa- tion is being constructed. The coal commission has spent months in gathering. the material. Much of 1t has already been used, in the form of reports on various phases of the coal question. Other reports will pile upon one another In the next two weeks including a detailed report on the soft coal industry which interests the greater part of the public.
 To the coal commission, the Presi- dent has added another agency, the federal trade commission, which has been ordered to make an inVestiga- tion of anthracite prices. for the pur- pose of halting any practices such as were found by the coal commission n in It's study of soaring hard coal prices last year.
 Public opinion settled the anthra- cite coal strike. There will never be another great strike in this country. Public opinion will kill it."
 That Is the comment of one ob- server. The governments program Is being built along that line.
 o o O
 Public On The Inside.
 The public now knows more about the coal industry than ever before. More will be known when the coal commission. completes It's reports The marshalling of public opinion will hereafter be comparatively easy, with the facts in hand, and the in dustry more than ever an open book. While the commission has not done everything 1t has blazed the way, and cut a path to the sources.
 Backed by the public opinion which has already been reused. Pres ident Coolidge will go before Con gress next session and ask for regu- lation of the industry, as recom- mended by the coal commission after it's investigation. Chief of the meas ures urged will be:
 1. Setting up of q federal body to receive reports from the coal in dustry, functionlng as the interstate commerce commission does for the railroads.
 3. Empowering the President to appoint 8 special commission to fer ret out the facts when miners and operators are unable to agree on 8 wage contract, as happens nearly every year.
 In addition, tho commission has made numerous recommendations for strengthening up affairs which must be undertaken by the miners and operators themselves. These relate to living conditions in the mines, working hours and means of arbi- traitor

SOUTHERN STATES PROTEST CUTTING
 OF DELE CAT |0NS
Dixie Republicans Say Re- duCtion Admits Weakness
 Of Party In That District
WASHINGTON BUREAU I
 THE AGh-HERALD NI-naI,Iu.rAn. n

From southern states effected bv the slashing of the delegates they generally send to republican conven- tions, protest has come to Wash ington, and threat that the action of the republican national commit tee will be appealed to the conven- ton itself.
 Republican leaders in the south have represented that the reduction or their delegates is admission by the committee that the republican perty is decadent In all southern in some. They point out that this has long been the claim of demo- crats. Also, they contend that re- publicans will become discouraged, and either go into the democratic party or fishing on the date of elections
 The committee defends itself to- day by declaring that 1t was al ways indefensible that southern states. where there is no republican party, should have sufficient force in conventions to nominate a presi- dential candidate.
 Where Reduction Occurred.
 Alabama delegates were not re- duced, Georgia lost of it's seven teen, while South Carolina. instead of Il as heretofore, will send four to the next convention. Other soutn- ern states were likewise affected.
 It Is understood here that republi- can leaders in the south are con cerned by fear lest the reduction If their strength in convention will convince federal authorities that 1t will not be necessary to cater to them hereafter in the matter of patronage dispensation. At present, party bosses fill offices principly according to their personal prefer ences. It is pointed out that if fed eral authorities in the future hava no ax to grind. 1t might require more than a boss favor to secure appointments in the south.
 Changed conditions, 1t Is under stood here, would please the re- sponsible citizens of the south espe- cially Tn cases wherein federal au- thorities have deemed 1t wise 10 name negroes to office. Alabama at present is fighting against the inten- tion of the administration, urged by negro political organizations, to put negroes in charge of a hospital at Tuskegee.

WASHINGTON RTREhU l
 THE AGE-HERALD !

Senator Arthur Ga6per of Kansas, leader of the farm bloc of the Sen ate, declared here today that the plight of the farmers of the country was so serious that in their behalf Congress, the next session, would be forced to bend itself assiduously.
 He intimated that in October, a meeting of the bloc, or as many members as could be summoned to Washington, would be held for the purpose of discussing plans. Sen ator Heflin of Alabama Is a repre- sentative member of the bltc, and will be expected to attend the meet
 Senator Capper informed President Coolidge today that the wheat farm CTS of the west were most seriously hurt by conditions. It Is understood sity of forcing reduction m freight rates. It is known that it will be with the railroad program. in view that the members of the farm block will be summoned to Washing ton. It Is regarded as certain that the farm bloc will cooperate in this respect with the peoples legislative service, at the head of which Is Sem ator LaFollette of Wisconsin and Representative Huddleston of Ala bama.
 The bloc was repeatedly said tt be the controlling force in the last ses- sion of Congress. It secured much legislation. The condition of the farmers is taken as evidence that the legislation was ineffective, while Senator Capper Is opposed to price fixing as a remedy, 1t Is regarded as possible that he would favor crop insurance. Legislatitn to that eff feet Is already prepared, and would tend to guarantee the farmers against losses on account of weather, boil weevils and other conditions and pests.
 The bloc is expected to make it's program the principal business of the next session.

EngIiShman Refuses To De- nate To That Cause, But Is
 Willing To Help Widows

PARIS, Sept. 15-(By Associated Press.)-Suzanne Lenglen, world champion tennis player, was one of a bevy of pretty girls. actresses and society women, prominent in a drive organized under the auspices of Paris newspaper during the closing
 days of the season here to collect
 funds to provide sweets and tobacco
 for the French soldiers in the Ruhr.
 Suzanne reaped a great harvest of paper francs until she reached group of Americans and Englishmen engaged In discussing the Volstead act around a table laden with de- cidedly non-V Volsteadean drinkables.
 Have you little contribution for the poilus in the Ruhr?" asked Mile. Lenglen in her sweetest voice. A Britisher, who appeared to have a better command of the French lam guage than his companions, apparent ly interpreting q unanimous opinion, replied:
 'Mademoiselle Lenglen. when your government decided to occupy the Ruhr she not only failed to ask our advice but did so against the definite warnings of our people. The French government sent it's soldiers into the Ruhr and should look after them. . Noting the pained look on Suzanne's face he added more kindly: Any time
  French widows and orphans don't fail to come around and sec us. There will always be & thousand franc note ready for you"
 Prince Aga Khan, when approached by one of the pretty actresses of the French stage on a similar errand. took
 an entirely different view of the question.
 "Certainly, my dear" said tho In- dian prince, emerging from g. par mutuel booth after cashing in 8 sub stantial bet on one of his own hands. Prince Aga Khan's hands were filled with bills of fifty and hundred franc denomination, but he looked at them disdainfully. The pretty girls heart fluttered as the prince began search ing his pockets with the evident in- tention of producing one of larger denomination.
 After a thorough search of his pocketbook his choice finally set
 tied upon bill which he handed the girl. She could hardly suppress an | exclamation of disappointment. It
 was a ten franc note.
