Mayor Woodward Attacks Outside Interference in Police Row
Atlanta mayor James G Woodward charged that Marion Jackson as head of the Men and Religion Forward Movement and his organization have interfered with the police board and Chief James L Beavers. He said outside influence destroyed police efficiency and kept Beavers in hot water, noting Beavers sometimes ignores orders from the board. The statement followed a council finance committee move to suspend salary vouchers for eleven members of the chief’s vice squad. Page Four continues.

England to Declare Food Contraband and Wilhelmina
British notes to the United States discuss declaring all foodstuffs contraband and seizing the Wilhelmina for a prize court. The memorandum defends the use of neutral flags on British ships to protect noncombatants and outlines tensions over German warfare methods. It notes Lusitania’s flag incident and cites Britain’s stance against universal foreign-flag use except to escape capture. The Wilhelmina case is framed as part of broader reprisals and enforcement amid wartime legal arguments.
