Battle of Atlanta
For Rating as City
OF 36O,692 Is Begun
Court Tells Lawyers to
Prepare Briefs in Census
Bureau Dispute.

The battle for a bigger and better
census estimation of the city of Atlanta,
Ga, got under way in the District Su-
preme Court today. On the outcome of
this suit to compel the census director
to publish population figure of 800, 692
instead of 27O,367, the Georgia metropo-
lis hopes to base its claim to being the
second largest city in the South.
At the outset Justice Frederick L.
Siddons declined to allow representa-
tive Of Houston, Tex, to intervene In
the suit, ruling that the Texas city
would not be damaged either way the
case went. At the same time the Judge
said from the bench that the city of
Greater Atlanta" as created in 1929 by
the State Legislature, appeared to him
among the municipalities of his ac-
quaintance."
''Just what did the State Of Georgia
have in mind when it authorized At
lanta to extend its boundaries?" in
quired the justice.
why were the essential powers Of q
municipality withheld and only an ad-
visory capacity established over the
added boroughs?"
John w. Fihelly, assistant district at
torney, who is arguing the case for the
Census Bureau, replied that 1t had been
clearly demonstrated to him the Legis-
lature had acted more with an eye to
making Atlanta the South's largest city
than with view to improving the
municipal government.
Should this legal monstrosity of q
city receive the classification it asks, I"
said Finely, ut will mean that every
city with an ambitious chamber OF
commerce will attempt to follow suit"
After hearing arguments in behalf of
Greater Atlanta" by Attorney Louis
Titus, who was retained by the city. and
by three Atlanta newspapers and city
organizations, the justice requested
lawyers to prepare briefs of their re-
spective cases within the next three
days, when, he said he will receive
them and give decision as soon as
possible.
City Criticizes Bureau.
The representative of the Georgia
city contended that the Census Bureau
had no right to place its own inter-
probation on the act of the State legis-
lation creating Greater Atlanta"
On the other hand, FINELY insisted
that Atlanta had extended its municipal
area from "a to 1874 square miles since
the census of 1920. Fihelly said the
Atlanta government did not levy taxes,
police or provide school facilities for
the five separate cities"
He added that the Greater Atlanta, I"
as it now stood, was not q municipality
so much as a loose federation of cities.
Should the court render a decision
favorable to the Georgia city, it would
be, next to New Orleans, with a popula-
ton of 455,792, the second largest city
in the South, exceeding Louisville, KY,
with 307 ,808 population. The city Of
Louisville which had considered inter-
vening in the case, took the view that
it was obviously the second largest
metropolis in the South and let it go at
that.
Atlanta's claims were represented in
the court today by James L. Mayson,
city attorney of the Georgia metropolis,
who assisted Mr.. Titus.

Our national income has expanded to
embrace more than one-third Of the
whole commercial world. AS a result
we have become dominant economic
power. Our citizens have spread their
trade and finance into every corner Of
the earth. From these tremendous
happenings in our country some leaders
in other countries came TO believe that
they were in the presence OF the birth
Of a new imperial power intent upon
dominating the deStinies and the
freedom of other peoples. Such con-
clusion would be the logical deduction
from many instances during 5000 years
OF history when the exploitation of
other people has been the outcome OF
the ability to do SO. This We know IS
an utter misconception of America.
We know there is desire to do justice
and not exploitation. We know there is
no financial, traditional or military i'm

Napoleon Joseph R. Grumpy of Pennsylvania Is
at the bat in the senate. He is the great bag collector
OF the republican party in campaign years. When the
senate barred Ware. Napoleon Grundy came In. He
was appointed by his able Lieutenant and puppet,
Gov. Joseph r. Fisher.
When Grundy came in the Borah progressive dem
ocratic coalition controlled the senate.
Napoleon Grundy Is a mole worker. Re controls his
tongue. saws woods. and uses prehaps the most ac-
tive brain in Pennsylvania. He disrupted the CO.
alition. HI won a few progreSsives and a dozen DEM
ocrats to his way of thinking; then he put a high
duty on Cuban sugar and another high duty on ce-
ment made in foreign countries.
Now he has the coalition on the hip. He will not
take foreign crude from the free list. He Is close
to the American giants of the petroleum industry.
He may place a stiff tariff on foreign lumber. All this
shows that the brain IS more powerful than the
tongue.
Grundy has the brain and knows where TO get the
coin. Borah has the tongue and he uses It. A
Texas daily Is responsible for this editorial squib. or
little QUESTIONABLE: Did the senate recant on the
sugar tariff because it had heard from the flapper
yote?" II did not. It recanted because 1t had heard
from the Hopper vote. There Is a difference.

at-and I think I've been a fool TO
bury myself the way I have. See
ing you have such a good time
makes me remember what I used to
do-and I miss 1t. I'm through"
While Elanda stared at her,
scarcely knowing what to say, An
dree toddled out OF the bedroom.
She was still in her little pajamas
and when she saw Elanda her little
mouth parted in her most adorable
grin, and she ran to her. Elanda
licked her up and held her tightly.
Mamma, bye-bye. Baby bye
bye"
She held out her arms to her
mother then. But Dixie shook her
head.
Baby stay home this time. Stay
home with Aunt Andy like q good
girl. Mamma bring baby some
candy"
The little blue-gray eyes looked
serious and her lip trembled. But
Elanda said brightly
"Andree and Andy play hide and
seek. Oh-oo, We have the bestest
time"
IN 4 moment she had her mind
off D1xie's going out and Dixie slip
ped away quietly. When she had
gone Elanda sat down with the baby
IN her arms. Sis seemed so sweet
and so very dear that again she
wished babies would be quiet and
let you hold them TO your heart
and love them. instead Of wiggling
annd laughing and wanting you to
romp with them all the time. Every
woman needs an eternal baby that
she al hold close to her and that
never will grow up.
Dixie was thoughtful as she rode
up town on the bus. Her revolt at
being on the shelf had surprised
Elanda. Quite as much as Elanda's
sudden foolishness and lack of SEN
sible balance had surprised her.
It didn't take long for a girl to
spoil her life. She hoped something
would stop Elanda before her head
was too completely turned. Suwanee
Collier was desirable In every way
in so far as she could see. Why she
was aiming at a man like Greg Du
Pont was quite beyond Dixie.
She believed beyond a doubt that
Suwanee was mad about Elanda.
And she wished he had gunptior
enough to get rough with her and
tell her what was what. However
she had more confidence In his good
sense than to believe Elanda coulc

Hughes Renders First Decision

Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes. on March L.
delivered his first opinion since resuming his seat on
the bench. It ruled upon two cases from Ohio chal-
longing the validity If a state law creating metro
politan parking districts at Cleveland and Akron and
attacking a section Of the Ohio constitution. 1t Is
significant that the decision sustained both the state
act and the constitutional provision which has been at
tackled.
Another significant decision was handed down. The
supreme court declined TO interfere with Alabama
statutes imposing a tax on cigars and cigarettes ana
cheroots which had been attacked by an Alabama
drug company.
Chief Justice Hughes announced he would take
over the fourth circuit which had been assigned to his
predecessor and consists Of the states OF Maryland,
West Virginia. Virginia and North and South Caro-
lima.
A state tax on cigars and cigarettes and chercots
is within the pale Of the constitution" This viii
