Teleiirams to William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, were sent yesterday by Dick Hudson, president of the Building Trades Council, and by J. A. Harper, president, and George F. Haney, secretary, of the Atlanta Federation of Trades. The menage sent by Harper and Haney took exception to rortions of the menage sent by Hudson, and was as follow "Thi Atlanta Federation of Trades at its regular meeting March 10, 1937, adopted the following motion: That the Atlanta Federation of Trades go on record as approving the mandates and laws of the American Federation of Labor, and that all affiliates aiding or assisting any dual movement, are hereby directed to cease such aid or iisMjitatice at once or withdraw from this body, "To the amazement of our organization we find a story in today's press, containing copies of telegram to you, from a delegate to the federation which is utterly without foundation.

Not a single delegate spoke against the above motion, but to the contrary, several of the delegates mentioned spoke in favor of the motion. It is apparent that, self publicity and creation of fiction can be the only moiivc tor sending a wire to you, which dors gross injustice to delegates named. Tarty sending wire has disrupted local building trades council. This only one of many attempts to foment trouble in the local movement. There is no division in the local labor movement except in the building trades, which has been caused entirely by party sending wire.

We respectively I'n this point to Presidents Ilutchenson. Kates and Tracy. And we will welcome any investigation of the entire situation which you desire to make." The Hudson telegram follows: "Following motion made by the vice president of the Atlanta Building Trades Council and adopted by majority vote of the Atlanta Federation of Trades at their regular meeting last night "That Atlanta Federation of Trades go on record as approving the mandates and laws of the A.

On motion of Representative Da-vies, of Dooly county, Speaker Harris appointed a committee of three to study a recent report of testimony on a Coffee county local bill. The bill in question, now signed into law by Governor Rivers, reduces the compensation of the Coffee county tax commission, charges were made the original draft of the bill was changed so as to make its effective date January 1, 1941, instead of immediately.

The senate today voted down a bill providing automobile owners would not be liable for injuries to guest passengers. Another measure, by Pope, of Cairo, was passed by the senate to regulate business license exemptions for veterans. The measure would provide that a veteran holding such a license could have only five employes and one place of business and must be a bona fide resident of Georgia. A measure by Senator Sutton, of Moultrie, to repeal the law requiring the Department of Agriculture to deposit its fees in the treasury and operate on an appropriation was also passed in the senafp.

In Isolated Section. Macbeth, this time suffering the fourth explosion in its history, is in an isolated section of the county. With crews miles back in the operation, officials were unable to learn bow much rock had fallen, gas conditions or whether the diggers found their way blocked by debris.

In the September blast it took 40 hours to reach the last of the entombed men. through a gigantic heap of broken slate and coal. Men experienced with explosions said they feared similar conditions had been found by the crews. The mine is a "slope" operation, the drift running down at an angle of 36 degrees for 640 feet and then leveling out for more than two miles. All Watchful.

The crowd about the mine grew in the chill darkness of the March night; wives and children of the missing men among them. All were silent and watchful, with only now and then a sob coming from some anxious woman. It was a familiar scene to many of the They stood for hours in a driving rain six months ago during the long hours when little or no word could come out of the wrecked interior. State police from Logan and nearby detachments kept the crowds back from the mouth. From where the watchers stood there was no indication that another gas blast had torn through old Macbeth.

The force did not reach the slope and the only activity was the coming and going of a few officials who walked anxiously down the drift hoping for news. Phone Kept Open. The one office telephone was kept open into the mine but the telephone down inside was only a mile back and almost two miles from the scene of the rescue work.

1 Atlanta, leading the 10 largest cities of the southeast in the return to prosperity, topped its rivals last year in bank clearings, bank resources and postal reeeipls, it was revealed yesterday with the latent issue of Facts ami Figures About Atlanta, published by the Industrial Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce. Atlanta also established its highest record in building permits, bank clearings and postal receipts since 1930. Atlanta's postal receipts, holding nineteenth place in the nation in 193G, ings for the same period reaching almost $200,000,000 greater than the bank clearings of Dallas, Texas, the next highest city. Building permits here last year soared to 1.422.22:!, an increase of nearly over 1935. Homes in Atlanta increased from in 1920 to 09,267 in 1935.

Atlanta has 47 prominent office buildings, with a total rental area of square feet. Atlanta is the first city in the United States in office space per capita, according to the booklet. With its abundant train, bus and plane service, Atlanta holds a favored place as a convention city, the booklet crediting the city with aa average of six a week during the past year. Communications facilities in Atlanta are outstanding. The city is rated as the largest telephone center in the south, the third largest, telegraph center in the world and the third American city in air mail volume and service, averaging 13 tons of air mail a month.

HULL ORDERS PROTEST TO BERLIN'S RIDICULE Continued From First Page. eon of the women's division (of the congress) were "women of the who were gathered together, in order to be entertaind by a "pimp and the mayor of New York." "Surely the State Department will insist upon a disavowal of this deliberately insulting and false utterance and an expression of regret from the Xazi government, which is responsible for everything that appears in Xazi publications," Mrs. Wise wrote Hull.

Manner of Protest. The cabinet officer explained that Dodd's represenetations to Nazi chieftains will not constitute a formal protest in the sense that an official reply or explanation will be necessary. Whether one is forthcoming, it was said, will depend upon the manner in which the American ambassador makes his "emphatic comment," to whom he makes it and the words he uses. There was no connection between the State Department's action and the Dickstein charges made before the rules committee of the house where the New York congressman sought to expedite action on a resolution projecting a congressional inquiry into foreign propaganda and foreign organizations operating in this country. JJickstein specifically accused Fritz Kuhn, whom he described as being a chemist on leave of absence from the Ford Motor Company, of leading a Xazi movement in this country.

He exhibited a photograph in which he identified Kuhju. in Nazi uniform and Brown Shirt meeting in the east, heavily armed, as presiding oyer a Nazi "rats, spies and agents" are recruiting and drilling uniformed and armed groups in Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, Illinois and Michigan and hare a fund of $20,000,000 at their disposal, Dickstein charged. 100 Spies in U. 8. I "I will name you 100 spies who have entered this country from a friendly government to foment a Fascist, plot," he said.

"Nazi leaders in this country are advising Hitler that he will have from 3,000.000 to helpers here if anything happens that he should need them." Representative Martin Dies, Democrat, Texas, interjected: "I doubt that there ar any more patriotic citizens than German-Americans." "Yes," Dickstein retorted quickly. But these dogs, spies and agents won't let them alone." The New York congressman told the committee that Henry Ford, multi-millionaire motor oar manufacturer, promised a house investigating committee in 1934 that would nof circulate and would destroy plates of a book published by his Dearborn concern which attacked the Hebrew race. This book, Dickstein said, now is being published in Germany and thousands of copies are coming into this country without Ford's knowl-: edge. Several members of the rules com-i mittee attempted to discourage Dick-; stein from pressing for his investigation and urged him instead to bring out a bill from the enm- mittee, which he heads, which would authorize deportations of undesirable criminal aliens. Dickstein said the administration is preparing such a bill.

"There are dozens of these racketeering organizations in this country," he shouted. "I have a file on the Black Legion that would knock the roof off if you wanted to study it." He concluded his testimony with the statement that Nazi uniformed cronns now have about 200,000 members and ttieir numbers are increasing daily. ItODD GATHERS DATA TO DELIVER PROTEST BERLIN.

LEGI LETION Continued From First Page. some of the larger bus and truck operators had agreed to the provisions of the bill but that others were opposing it. The Field-Jones substitute makes the scale somewhat lower than the Musgrove bill. Various amendments offered sought to lower the scale and several sought to make it higher.

There appeared to be a wide divergence of opinion in the house on the rates. Speaker Harris and Renresentative Musgrove said the bill would vield about a year, which is allocated directly to the Highway De partment for use on the secondary road system and which the Highway Department hopes to match with federal funds. The establishment of the secondary road system awaits approval of this measure financing the program. Vote 105 to 22. Legislative action on the highway patrol measure was completed when the house voted, 105 to 22, to agree to the conference committee report which had been approved Wednesday by the senate.

Governor Rivers said several weeks ago the measure was not sponsored by the administration, but that he was friendly toward it. It was intro- i duced by Representative Sutton, of Wilkes county, the administration's floor leader in the house. The group of SO to 120 members, serving three-year enlistment periods, would be headed by a director of public safety who would, in turn, be responsible to a public safety board to be appointed by the Governor. The compromise measure carried as one of its chief provisions a clause making enforcement of traffic laws and those governing ownership and operation of automobiles the "primary" duties of the patrol. The patrol would also have full police power over any crime committed on the highways.

And, on request of a mayor, sheriff or superior court judge, it would be their duty to arrest violators of the general criminal laws the same as any other officer. License Examination. The director of public safety, or sheriffs, police chiefs or other officers designated by the director, would con duct examinations for drivers' licenses in each county. Drivers would be required to stand examinations and purchase licenses by July 1, 1937. The cost would be $1 for two years.

The house debated only one of the 3S amendments recommended by the conference committee for addition to its original bill the requirement that all persons eligible for service on the patrol have a high school education or its equivalent. An unsuccessful fight to have the house disagree to the amendment was led yesterday by Larsen, of Laurens county. The amended bill provides the Geor gia Peace Officers' Association will be permitted to submit a liset of 10 nominees from which the Governor would select one of the members of the Public Safety Commission. The committee settled the controversy over salary or a safety director by leaving it at $4,800. Oriignally the bill called for S6.000 and a senate committee sought to restore it to after the house had cut it down.

The committee retained a senate amendment to the house bill authorizing judges to revoke drivers' licenses. The right of license revocation is also given the safety committee. The Department of Public Safety would collect monev for drivers' li cences, delinijujBat ta taie mileage HIGHWAY SLAT ON NEaRING Oj) J( Jr QnBBw 43,274 Yards! 39c to 1.98! ir 75 Extra More Floor Space Better Values! it Hundreds of Fabrics and Patterns to Choose From! it Every Yard Perfect- No Remnants!
