Clarence J. Owens of Washington, D.
C., managing director of the Southern
Commercial Congress. is in Birmingham
for the purpose of arousing interest in
the next annual meeting of his organi-
zation which is to be held in Mobile in
September.
1t is to be a great Panama canal rally.
so to speak, for the first ship is to pass
through the canal in September and the
Commercial congress is to adjourn from
Mobile to the canal zone in order that
those In attendance may witness the
momentious event.
"Our Mobile congress is to be of the
highest Importance to the entire state
of Alabama and the whole south as
we'll" said Mr.. Owens last night. 1T is
to be of international scope, too, our
government through the state depart
ment having invited all the Latin coun-
tries south of us to send representa-
tives.
"The exact date for the convening of
the Commercial congress is contingent
upon thesdate set for the passage OF
the first ship through the Panama canal.
Arrangements will be made for trans
porting the congress to Panama in time
. to see that first ship. l think there will
be fully 1900 visitors in Mobile on the
occasion of our meeting and provision
will be made for a great number of them
to join in the Panama trip.
All Should Aid
ST wish to impress the business men
of Birmingham and Montgomery with
the idea that as Alabama is the host
state 1t will be in order for them to
do their part in making the Mobile af-
fair a splendid success.

ern Commercial Congress are John l..
Kaul of Birmingham and Albert p. Bush
of Mobile. both of whom will cooperate

IT was suggested to Mr. Wilson that IL
he delayed his announcements till the last

find themselves embarrassed for time in
winding up their business affairs.
"Oh, / probably shall chose men who

then even if they should need time to
wine up their affairs they could be sworn
in on March and spend a little time on
it after that"
He indicated that he intended to occupy
as much of his time as possible between
now and March in canvassing the field
from which he will pick a cabinet. lie
said his mind was still open, and that
as soon as he reached decisions as to all
the men he wished, he probably would
make all the offers simultaneously. The
