LEE LONG OF BUTLER
 ENJOYS JOKE ABOUT 1T
One of Governors Lieutenants Intre- duces "Funnys Resolution Into House on Alarm of Busi-
 ness Men.

Representative Lee Long, of Butler, one of the chief legislative lieutenants of Governor Conner, and the chairman of the House Committee on Commerce and Common Carriers, introduced what was evidently intended for a humor- ous resolution in the House yesterday on the subject of the alarm felt by the business interests of the State over the effect of threatened legislation on the business interests.
 After beIittling the movement to call a mass meeting in Montgomery to ap- peal to the legislators to call a halt in the drastic program, the resolution proceeded to intimate that the business men were acting simply as agents for the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. It embraced a recommendation to that road to have the anti-pass law sus- pended by the courts at least long enough that 1t might furnish free trans portation to Montgomery to such bus ineaa men as cared to attend the mass meeting.
 The full text of the resolution. which was referred. as 8 matter of routine to the Rules Committee. is as follows
 "Whereas, as Is set out in the public press, 1t has been deemed advisable that a great majority, of the people of Alabama. viz: A small proportion of the commercial organizations. shall as- semble in this. the Capital City. on Tuesday, November 12, for the purpose of shaping legislation and

 whereas. the Louisville and Nash vile, a railroad corporation that is somewhat interested in the proposed legislation, as. well as that already en- acted, has often in the past assembled his great body on free transportation, and

 Whereas. the said Louisville and Nashville has deemed 1t wise to have enjoined through the Federal courts ap acts regulating transportation compa. nies. with the exception of the anti pass bill. now, therefore,

With the prices of all kinds of pro- visions having risen far above those of last year the poor are rejoicing because bread is to be bought cheaper than ever.
 The reason is that great war has broken out in the bakery trade. not be- cause the bakers are anxious to please the poor but because the big bakeries want to freeze the independent bakers out of business and then or course prices will go up,
 The position is so serious that the small retailers from whom the majority of Londoners purchase their bread com slider that the Government should in- tervene. It is urged that even If the Government should control the price or bread so as to secure a fair profit to the retailer. 1t should, at any rate, nx standard weight for the quartern and half-quartern loaf. At present the law provides that bread. must be sold by weight. There Is no fixed standard for the quarters or half-quarters loaf though they are popularly supposed to represent four pounds and two pounds respectively.

TalIOw- "DIp" More Used Than Ever.

The "tallow dip" of our grandfa tn CTS Is no longer made of tallow. exactly, writes William Hard in Technical World Magazine for October. It is made of stearic acid. which is only one ingredient of the tallow that grows in the sheep and in the steer.
 Neither Is 'the .tallow dip of today a real dip" They used to take long wicks and dip them in hot tallow. time after time, till the candle had acquired the proper thickness. Today they run hot stoaric acid into molds and make 100 candles instantaneously.
 The "tallow dip on the market to- day, therefore. would be more accu- rately described If 1t were called a ''stearic acid mold But neverth eless it contains a tallow product. It is the direct lineal descendant of the "tallow dip" of our grandfa thers. And 1t is still so popular that just about l30,0o0,- GOO pounds of tallow. according to the calculation of one of the best-tnformed manufacturers of Chicago. are consum- ed every year in the candle factories of the United States. Although gas and kerosene and electricity have de- prived the candle of a large part of the popularity to which 1t might have considered itself justly entitled, 1t.
