PRESS CONVENTION.
Interest In international League and
Birnnnqham's Bid for II.

The Chicago papers have taken much
interest in Birmingham's effort to secure
the convention of the International League
of Press Clubs in 1907 Here are ex-
tracts from papers of recent date. The
Chicago Post says:
The city of Birmingham. Ala, wants to
entertain the International League of
Press Clubs next year and Is making
strenuous efforts to win the writer's. ].
A. Rountree of the Birmingham Press
club is in Chicago to deliver the invita-
ton to Chicago Press club members. He
will go to Denver when the league as
sembles there for the meeting this year,
and deliver the invitation to the organiza-
ton. The writer's of the southern city
are supported in their invitation by the
City Council, the Mayor, the Board OF
Trade, the Birmingham Commercial club.
the Merchants association and citizens in
general. If the league delegates decide to
meet in the Alabama Pittsburg, they will
be entertained in lavish fashion. They
are promised trip to Cuba and the Isle
of Pines as a side issue.
The Chicago Chronicle says:
j. A. Rountree, editor of the Dixie Man
ufacturer, and delegate from Birming-
ham, Ala, to the convention of the In
ternatonal League of Press Clubs at Dem
yer, passed through Chicago yesterday
armed with a pile of literature and facts
by which he hopes TO capture the next
convention for Birmingham.
Mr. Rountree premises his arguments
with the statement that It is the south's
time to entertain the league; Birmingham
is the heart of Alabama, Alabama is the
heart of the south-ergo Birmingham
should get the convention. The Birming-
ham delegate is also prepared to promise
on behalf of his town that If the con-
vention goes there next year the dele
gates will receive welcome which will
more than maintain the traditional hospi-
tally of the south Mr. Rountree means
TO win and he is convinced that the vic
tory will be his when he explaZs the
many advantages of the booming indus
trial metropolis of the south.
The following appeared in the Chicago
Post:
Elaborate plans have been made by the
Rock Island railway to carry the dele
gates to the sixteenth annual convention
of the International League of Press
Clubs from Chicago to Denver The con
vention will be held next week. and news
paper men from all parts of the Uuited
States and CANADA will be present

In return Mr. Winchell is to be made an

following communication was received
yesterday from a Birmingham man who Is
now in Washington:
