Association
PUBLICITY DEBATE

Looking toward the preparation for
suffrage when we get it. said Mrs.
Scion Jacobs yesterday afternoon, the
programme of the years work Of the
Birmingham Equal Suffrage association
has been mapped out Last year in our
study of laws governing women in the
state of Alabama, we were compelled
30 secure lawyers as our speakers. Dur
ing this fiscal year, which ends for US
in May, we hope to encourage the de-
velopment of speakers in our own ranks
by giving them the topics decided upon
for the various meetings"
The study OF government is the gem
eral subject for the year. The meet
ing yesterday afternoon at Clark & Jones
hall was important chiefly as the first
of the season to follow the programme
outline. The speakers were Mrs. w. L..
Murdoch and Mrs. Charles NJ. Spencer.
Their topics were National Govern
ment" and state Government" respec-
lively.
The usual business routine was fol-
lowed by the election of Mrs. Oscar r.
Hundley as recording secretary to fill
the unexpired term of Mrs. j. &c. Frazier
whose resigna tion was accepted several
weeks ago.
The election was by reclamation and
tho president Mrs. Solon Jacobs made
Pa graceful acknowledgment of Mrs.
Hundley's willingness to assume the
rather arduous duties of the office.
An outline of the programme for the
ten meetings of the year was present
ed for the clubs consideration. Among
the topics to be discussed at each
meeting, in talks of not more than
twenty minutes, are: "The postal sys-
tenn the new parcel post, general
powers of congress, which will be the
subject at next meeting; labor laws,
elections, educational systems police
protection, our jury system, and other
matters along the same line. w. F.
Aldrich will probably address the as
sociation at its meeting two weeks
hence. Miss Helen Benners will be the

Gallinger Opposes Arbitration

Senator Gallinger, chairman of the
republican caucus said:
II am opposed to the arloitra ion of
this subject because l nsider it a
domestic question. The canal ha s been
built on our own soil by our own
money and we should control it,
Il am inclined to think that we stall
be compelled by the terms of the arbl-
tration treaty to submit the canal qucs-
ton to arbitration said Senator Hitch
cock of the foreign relations committee
II regret the necessity but think we are
In honor bound"
Senator Borah. member of both the
foreign relations and the canal CON-
mittees. said: ITO concede arbitration
would establish a precedent that would
be embarrassing
II would rather repeal the canal law
than arbitrate,' declared Senator Stone
democrat. of the foreign relations conn
| mittee. From my point of view the
imposition of tolls ON canal traffic is
| merely a domestic question. We have a
right to re-enact the statute. 1t is not
important to shipping that 1t should
stand. but 1t is important that we should
not imperil our rights"
State department officials were uTl-
willing to discuss the position taken to-
day by President Taft on the contro-
versy. 1t repeatedly has been ma de
known at the state department that the
administration would not submit the
matter to arbitration
Officials of the department, it is know n.
have been deeply engrossed in the study
OF Sir Edward Grey's letter of protest
with a view to formulating reply. Few
officials OF the department 1t is therefore

the nature of the reply would he so

for treaties with all nations and between
nations that would lead to final inter-
locking of treaties which ultimately would
bring about the settlement of all inter

Could Ask for Special Court
