Refused to Bid on Sugar

If the planters had gone into such a deal" testified Mir Legendre, .tit would have meant practically the blacklisting of their sugar on the local exchange.
 T mean, if I were an independent re- finer" he added, the sugar trust would not bid on my sugar at the local ex- change"
 The witness declared that the trust" had prevented three attempts of the Louisiana sugar planters to organize a Ilarge independent refinery.
 The Havemeyer letter which contained the suggestion of government ''interfer- ence against the planters follows:
 T have looked over the subject matter of your communication of November 27 bearing on the construction of several sugar plantations. Of course, I do not pretend to say what Is possible under the present executive of the countrys inter- pretation, and certain power of adominis- tering and controlling the law, but it seems to me that the action of assocatng the different planters would be strictly in line with what he considers combination in restraint of trade, and no doubt gov ernmental interference would be taken in tho natter

Enlightenment Needed


 Alabama needs enlightenment" was the theme of Dr. Johnson in his talk at the dinner given him at the Flor ence hotel by the directors of the As sociated Charities at 6 o'clock last evening.
 Charity does not mean giving dol lar to the poor,' he said. Tt means service to alleviate the condition. The strong must take care of the weak. for the weak cannot take care of them selves. The social welfare of Birming- ham rests on the shoulders of the lead CTS of the community and you busi- ness men are beginning to realize your obligations to society," On the associated charities MT. Johnson advo- cated "co-operation in all classes of charity that there be not any duplica- ton and waste of effort and money"
 Pasohal Shook, president of the As sociated Charities, presided and spoke Of the great work of pr. Johnson for organized charities throughout the country.
 Rabbi Morris Newiield spoke on d plan of organized giving to charities
 Al the present time there are cam paigns here and campaigns there for the purpose of raising money for char itable purposes" he said Many men are giving their valuable time and eff fort in the endeaVOr of raising money for the various charitable institutions of the Birmingham district. 1 favor a plan whereby a committee composed of representatives of all the different charitable organizations of this city solicit once year all moneys that they will need for the work of their insti- tutions. This money will be distrib- uted proportionately to the charities as they are needed. Thus a lot of indi- vidual effort now wasted in seeking funds throughout the year for char itable purposes will be saved The bus mess men of the community will not be bothered several times and will readily give more than they are giving at present to the charitable institu- tions of the city"
 MT. Shook warmly indorsed these words as did Dr. George Eaves of the tuberculosis association. Richard w Massey also indorsed the plan of Rabbi Newfield, and pledged his co-op- eration to all charitable work. Among the directors and guests present at the dinner were: Hugo Black, Oscar c. Turner. sydney J. Bowie, w. Waite, pr. Cabot Lull, Rev. U D. Mooney, Will Martin, George Eaves, Thomas Hop kins. Dr. J. Cunningham Wilson, Rob- ert Jemison, Jr., Pasehal Shook, Rev. E. II. Copenhaver, William Ryan. Rich ard w. Massey and Rabbi Morris New field.
 Dr. Johnson leaves today for Tampa, Fla, where he will address the state conference on charities and corrections.

State Organization

Dr. Johnson met with number of social workers at o'clock yesterday afternoon in the directors room of the Chamber of Commerce building. The meeting was not lengthy, being some thing of a consultation between the local social workers and pr. Johnson on social problems and the matter of state organization in the nature of an Alabama Sociological congress.
 Dr. Johnson talked for some little time about the desirability of state organization which would consider all sociological problems, not only local, but of state interest and showed the advantage of cooperation among the different cities.
 On motion it was decided that the social workers present be resolved into a committee on permanent organization and that a committee of five be ap pointed to investigate and report on the expediency of a state organization and that the committee submit a ten tative programme. The personnel of the committee will be announced later.
 There were present al this meeting Messrs. Huddleston, kenlmar, Harri- son, Barrow. McGrath, Mosely, Black burn, Shapiro. Judge Murphy and Mad ames Murdoch and Searight and others.

Hot-Weather ''Don'ts" from Health
Commissioner Bosley

Don't wear heavy fannels because
you think they absorb the perspiration
and keep the body cool. Dress as
lightly as the law will allow.
Don't fret Life is too short and the
weather too hot to bother about trifles.
Don't drink buttermilk after you
have eaten heartily of hard crabs,
watermelon or cherries. Cold water
and iced tea are just as palatable AMI
more wholesome.
Don't keep at work or in the hot sun
when you feel yourself becoming naus-
Gated. Seek cool place and resi-
awhile This will help you to avoid
prostration.
Don't eat too much meat in hot
weather. Well-ripened fruit is good
food at all times.
Don't neglect the daily bath. Some
like the cold plunge and find it re-
freshing. Others prefer tepid water.
There is nothing better than the bath
in hot weather.
Don't hurry through your meals or
walk fast. 1t is better to rise a little
earlier in the morning and take your
time at all things during the day.
Don't lose your temper over trifies.
This is good rule for all seasons and
all times.
Don't allow mosquitoes to keep you
awake at night. Kill them off by using
plenty of oil in cesspools and prevent
ing stagnant water about your prem
ises.

To Buy Tobacco

Messrs. M. Montravel and L. Girard-
vile, representatives of the French
Government in its purchase of Mary
land tobacco, arrived in Baltimore Tues
day. They will make their headquar-
tiers at the warehouse of Claas Woke
& Co.. on South Charles street, Balti-
more, and will remain during the sell
ing season for the Maryland tobacco
crop.
Their appearance in Baltimore is ex-
pected to give stimulus to the leaf
tobacco trade of the city. They have
been making yearly visits to this mar
ket for some time and their coming is
eagerly awaited by the tobacco grow
ers and the commission merchants who
sell for the farmers.
Mr.. Chase Woke has been the buy
ing agent for the French Government
for its Maryland tobacco since a for
mer board ceased to place contracts for
its supply. He is still their agent and
has already bought such receipts OF
last years crops as have come to mar
ket suitable for French USE The first
shipment of these purchase will go out
today.
So far the Maryland crop has moi
come in freely. This State raises be
tween 80, 900 and $4,000 hogsheads. The
receipts to date have been less thar
5000. With the arrival of the French
representatives to supervise and inspec
the offerings and fix the price the Gov
eminent will pay it is expected the
summer rush will begin.
The buyers will not discuss prices
but it is also expected there will be
some stimulation in this direction wher
the buying competition becomes keen
The French now have to compete with
Holland. Germany and some othel
European countries for the Maryland
tobacco crop. Domestic buyers have
also been in the market for some years
the American Tobacco Company hav
ing absorbed large quantities of the
Maryland product.
Formerly what were known as the
French grades found market only il

France. This was contract system when
the lowest bidders for the contract
would bid low to the product to make
a profit out of the contract. At times
they had the market for these grades
practically to themselves. The farmers,
were the sufferers.
This is now changed. The French
Government has raised its standard of
quality and freely completes in the open
market for the quantity it needs. 1t
pays good prices for good tobacco and
corresponding values for the less desir-
able grades.
Commission merchants look for an
active leaf tobacco market from now
until the French needs are filled.
