July 13. (Universal Service.) Postmaster General New frankly admitted yesterday that Georgia postmasters contribute funds to the Republican state organization there, but he charged that the Democrats pursue the same policy when they are in power. New produced a mass of documentary evidence tending to show that the Democratic national committee openly solicited contributions from postmasters during the hey-dey of its power from 1917 to 1920. The postmaster general appeared at his own request before the special senate committee investigating federal patronage in the south to deny charges of wholesale buying and selling of postoffices by Republican officials in Georgia. As a result of rigid investigations extending over several years.

New said a few such instances had been disclosed and the principals promptly punished. More than that, he said, the advice of the two Democratic sen? tors from Georgia was constantly sought by him before appointments were made. "I have no doubt," said New, "that postmasters in Georgia have contributed to the Republican organization down there. I'm not defending that practice.

Boone at Baxley, Ga, to contribute $75 to the party campaign fund of that year. The letter contained a postscript in which Jamieson reminded Boone of the federal laws forbidding one federal officeholder to solicit political funds from another or to solicit them in governnjent buildings. The letter was marked "Deliver at residence only," indicating that Jamieson intended to avoid any possible violation of this law. New introduced other letters written by Jamieson during the period' from 1917 to 1920 and caused some amusement7 by relating how some of the letters, containing contributions from postmasters, were "rifled" by a clerk in the office of the Democratic national committee. The rifling was disclosed as the result of an investigator, whose reports New submitted to the committee.

Berlin's note, published today, was It acknowledged Secretary of State Kellogg's note of June 23, declared Germany "agrees to the interpretation" placed by Kellogg on the treaty, and concluded by saying the German government "is accordingly ready to sign this pact in the form now proposed." Paul Claudel, French ambassador, informed the secretary that France's reply would be handed Ambassador Herrick in Paris probably on July 14. Published reports that Germany was seeking American Bupport for a plan to have Russia included among the original signatories of the treaty were neither confirmed nor denied by the state department, Kellogg was represented as "highly elated" over the success of the negotiations, which France initiated in June, 1927, and which Kellogg in April of this year expanded by inviting Great Britain and subsequently the British dominions, Belgium, Germany, Italy, aJpan and Czecho-Slovakia, to join. Failure of the German note to suggest a time or place for signing the treaty was accepted here as signifying Berlin's willingness to leave this in the hands of the United States.

The order: provides that thereafter the St. Louis company must state specifically in its advertising that it does not handle the other company's coal.

The St. Louis company is is the 2-i-egler Coal Company, while the Chicago company is the Bell and Zoller Coal Company, which operates mines at Z-e-igler, 111. In its future advertising the Ziegler Coal Company, to avoid confusion among its customers, must say under the injunction: "Not selling coal mined at, in or near Z-e-igler, 111., known as 'Zeigler and bined by the Bell and Zoller Coal Mining Company." Louis J. Ziegler, president of the St. Louis company, replied to the Injunction suit that he considered he had a right to operate a coal company under his own name.
