GEORGIA TO DECIDE

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA. March 23-Georgians
will do their own deciding on lower
taxes, prohibition and giving State
officers four-year terms.
The prohibition referendum will
be held May IS, when Georgians will
decide whether to abolish their o.
year-old bone-dry law or modify it
to legalize the sale Of beer and wines.
This States dry statute is not in
the Constitution. and the General As
sembly which closed its To-day ses-
sion tonight, could have repealed 1t
outright.
But the drys have been strong
politically ever since 1907. when
Georgia went arid, and so the leg
islators were content to permit the
people to do their own deciding.
1t requires a Constitutional amend
ment. however, to effect the lower
tax plan and TO give officers four
year terms.
The tax amendment provides IS
mill limit on aggregate State, county
and city levies on property. The
measure also would tax intangibles
at mills.
Constitutional amendments are to
be voted on in the general elections
late next year. Another amendment
provides for the election of a Lieu
tenant Governor
The only bill which the National
Democratic Administration favored
which received any consideration
from the assembly was a constitu-
tional amendment providing for old
age pensions.

Scientists Stop the Clock of Death
Between 500 and 1000 Dead Persons Have Been Brought
Life in Last Five Years.
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE,
Associated Press Science Editor.


Associated Press Science Editor.
N Ar EDICAL science is revising
M death. This is the real sig
jVt nificance Of the mounting
4 Il numbers of dead" reported
brought back to life.
The portal OF death for man, the
last door which cannot be reopened,
is no longer his heart. Medical men
have known for years that the real
portal was elsewhere.
But the last heart beat was q Suffl-
cient sign to be used as official. Be
cause from 1t there was so rarely any
recall.
This has changed. Between 500
and 1000 persons dead" by the
stopped heart sign, have been brought
back to life in the last five years.
Conditions Must Be Right.
The circumstances under which this
seeming miracle" can be performed
are sharply limited. They include
only about a dozen types of diseases
and accidents, none Of which may be
permitted to do serious organic harm
before a heart is to be restarted.
The cases are enough to call atten-
tion to the real portal of death: and
to what medical science is doing to-
ward reaching that door. The real
portal is the nervous system. In
death the start is with the nervous
system. So long as the system is in
tact there is still hope.
Closely related to it are respiration
and the heart. The nervous system
controls both.
Closing Portals"
1t might be said that the portal is
a series of three doors, very close to-
gether. They close so swiftly one
after the other that there may be
doubt at times as to which shut first.
But in order of Importance the
nervous system stands highest.
One reason is that of all the bodily
tissues the nerves are the most
Liable" the most easily upset. Dis
solution in them is more speedy than
elsewhere. In an examination OF
beheaded persons in Germany it was
found that nervous tissues died more
quickly than others, and took only

1t is the carbon dioxide. natural
waste product of the body, which
causes the sigh. The carbon dioxide

Medicine uses this fact by giving
massive doses of carbon dioxide, more

These engineers have full authority to advise sponsors on projects and to act as liaison men between spon- sors for ERA projects to be trans ferred to WPA and the Works Progress Administration. All ap- plications for the transfer of ERA projects to. WPA should be trans- mitted through them, and their preliminary approval of these pro- jects is required before these pro- jects will receive the approval of tho state WPA.

DEFENSE WITNESS | EVADES SUMMONS
Police Unable to Locate ''Ethel Gage" Wanted in
 Milk Snatching Case

The mystery of the stolen bottle of milk deepened today when Prosecuting Attorney Mitchell c. Meyers in city court informed Judge Mascolo that "Ethep could not be located. It will be remem- bered that when two colored ac- cused were charged with the theft of the milk, one of them, Booker Saunders, 28, of 34 Vine street, placed the blame upon one "Ethel Cage"
 Judge Mascolo continued the case to today and instructed that Ethel be brought in on warrant to tell her story. This morning Saunders and John Clapp, 31, of 223 North Elm street, were pres- ent but Ethel was not. Judge Mascolo continued the case two weeks and suggested that more de- termined efforts be made to locate Ethel.
 Yesterday during the trial of the accused, it was testified by Patrol man John Walsh that he came upon Saunders with the half-filled bottle of milk in his hands. The bottle, a milk driver for the A. H. Merriman & Sons Go. had testified, was stolen from third floor ver- anda at Elizabeth and Bishop streets, 8 section where milk had been stolen frequently, the driver said. ! Saunders could not account, at first, how the bottle came into his hands. He knew he did not steal 1t, he said, and he certainly was not on anybody's veranda. Judge Mascolo interrogated the accused and asked him if they had had something sctronger than milk to drink before the milk bottle came into the picture. Saunders admitted to having had a couple of drinks.
 "You weren't taking the milk to make some milk punches. were you" asked the judge.
 "No, your honor, we had no milk punches"

SLAYER GERALD
 THOMPSON WILL
 SOON HEAR FATE
Case Will Go to Jury To- day-Almost Completed
 on Tuesday

Peoria, H., July 31 (UP) - Ge1ald Thompson, slayer of pretty Mildred Hallmark, probably will know his fate today.
 Ren Thurman, defense counsel, closed his case late yesterday and after one more state rebuttal wit ness has testified the case will go to the jury-a jury of tradesmen qualified to recommend the death penalty. The defense testimony ended lamely. Mrs. Florence Whiteside, the defendants mother who was to have been his chief witness and would have testified. according to Thurman, that her son was a sexual monomaniac, was unable to appear.
 Diary Kekt Out.
 A fast-minute effort to introduce the youths lurid "black diary" in which he listed his attacks on scores of girls, was denied by Cir cult Judge Joseph E. Daily. In re- buttal, Edwin V. Champion, bushy- haired, gruff voiced states Attor- ney, offered a procession of fore men under whom the defendant had worked as a machinist, who testified that in their opinion he was entirely sane. The defense had maintained that the youth was in- sane on sex matters-driven by an overpowering urge to sex crimes. Testimony of the foremen opposed that of three friends of Thompson S who described obscene conversa- tions they had with him.
 Worked On Sex Matters.
 One, Sam Sprinkle, Thompson's companion on many hunting trips. said the young man was morbid on sex matters.
 We used to make bets on how many rabbits we could bag" he said, 'and when it looked as if Gerald would win he would turn the conversation to women. Then his hand would tremble and he couldn't shoot straight. He was a pretty good shot at other times, though" Thompson gloried in his experiences, Sprinkle said, and of- ten showed him pictures in which he had posed in the nude with a woman.
 Defense Took One Day.
 The defense took but a day. His aged grandparents, with whom he made his hone, testified in an ef- fort to save him from the electric chair. Milford Hallmark's bruised and ravished body was found near ly nude in Q lonely cemetery ravine a month ago. Thompson confessed that he had followed her home and then coaxed her into his car. He then drove to the cemetery, he said, and when Mildred repulsed his warm affections and bit his thumb he struck her on the jaw.
 Physicians said she died from a broken neck.
