STORMY SCENE IN HOUSE 0F COMMONS
Judicial Inquiry Into Naval and Military Movements
 Is Ordered

London, April 21.--A stormy scene was created in the House of Commons today when Andrew Bonar Law, leader of the opposition, demanded a judicial inquiry into the naval and military movements recently contemplated by the government in Ulster.
 Premier Asquith refused judicial in- quiry as he said the charges had been proved false. but he challenged Mir. Law to make any accusations he wished to make in the House itself when he would be given the fullest opportunity for discussion.
 Amid the cheers and angry shouts of their supporters. the two leaders took their places alternately at the table challenging one another.
 Uproar followed Mfr Laws declara- tion that the statements made by Pre- mier Asquith and his colleagues had been proved untrue.
 The scene ended amid ministerial cries of take your day for debate" Mr. Law said that when he had seen the promised white paper and other docu- ments he would speak again.

to live. Now that l have seen your beau- tiful residence sections. can imagine nothing more conducive to happiness than place of beauty.
 But what l want particularly to talk about Is the Birmingham Newspaper club. l have seen clubs of man different kinds In every part of the world, but never have I seen anything that could in any way approach this for beauty of architec- ture, of appointment and service. It IS something of which the city of Brming- ham could well feel proud and I admire the newspaper fraternity of Birmingham. that there are men in it's ranks of suf- ficient courage to undertake what must have been a large proposition. We have few clubs in New York, but this sur passes anything In Gotham
 MT. Young expressed his appreciation of the hearty welcome extended to the party of newspaper men and hoped he would have an opportunity of making a more extended visit to Birmingham later.
 Mrs. Lamada's Tribute
 Mrs. Deltrick Lamada was called upon for an expression regarding Birmingham and without rising from her seat at the banquet table she paid tribute to Br- mingham's beauty that brought forth spoltdIleOuS dpplauSe rom everyone pres ent. Tt is the most beautiful city have ever seen, and I would just love to live here" she said.
 One result of the visit here of the newspaper men Is that the Birmingham Newspaper club will become, perhaps, the most extensively advertised club in Aemrcan. with the possible exception of the Gridron club at Washington, D. C. The editors last night promised to use 15.O00 words regarding the local newspaper club and to use with the reading matter

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Praises Zueblin Lectures

To the Editor of The Age e-Herald:
 Noting in this mornings Age-Herald that Fra Zueblin will appear in Birming- ham, I found myself for the first time in my life writing to an editor a public note. The fact is that Knowing the qualities of Dr. Zueblin, and he objects to that ti- tie for good reasons, I must wish every 'Iiving human" in Greater Birmingham to hear him. His lecture on Mark Twain is classic, and the finest sketch of Twain's life and work that Birmingham will ever be able to hear: in fact. you will think Twain talking: Twain with his wit. his humor. with his human interest, At one time I believed that Dr. Axons lecture on Whitman was great: Axon of Princeton, the brother-in-law of Presi- dent Wilson; the savant of the Rice in- stitute. But. you will cnange your mind when hearing Zueblin And. by the way, ask him the difference between high brow and lowbrow. For his success

was keen competition for places in the window and apparently no one enjoyed the affair more than did they. One oi the most amusing incidents of the day came when the older children of the home were marched downtown to see the demonstration.
 Crowds around the window were thick all day yesterday and great interest was manifested in the work of the home. All contributions were made voluntarily as there was no soliciting on the part of the ladies.
 The results were much better than we expected, said a member of the board of control last night We had not made any special appeal to the public and We're not expecting so liberal a response. We have decided to make the demonstra- ton an annual event and next year it will be on a more elaborate scale.''

 10 Dallas Convention

John Clyde Oswald of the American Printer, New York city, at the Birmins- ham Newspaper club last night expressed for a party of newspaper men he is con dueting to Houston, Tex, to a meeting of the National Editorial association, the gratitude they felt to the Birmingham newspaper men and to the Chamber Of Commerce for the cordial reception ten dered them and the attentions showered upon them during their stay yesterday The party left at 10:10 o'clock last night for New Orleanss where they will stop for day before going onto Houston.
 MT. Oswald in his address said Birming- ham was not sufficiently advertised "Ev- erybody knows about the immense min eral deposits in this district" said he.
 but few people know that this is the best place in the world in which to live. When We were carried out to view your great industrial plants at Ensley and Fairfield this afternoon. I was greatly impressed with the bigness of Birming- ham. But when we reached the South Highland residence section, Mountain Ter race, Altamont Road and the other spots of great beauty you have here, I began to realize just what Birmingham really was in a residential way.
 Another thing. You have here the greatest club rooms it has been my pleas ure to see. There is nothing in New York that can in any way approach the rooms of the Birmingham Newspaper club It is an institution that the entire city can well feel proud of.

 ton the soprano, is an artist of dstinc- tion. and Marion Green, the baritone is quite famous. Rienzi Thomas has heard
 him, and says that he will be great in the roll of Satan as portrayed by Milton Tn Paradise Lost" While Paradise Lost is called an oratorio it could be easily turned into grand opera by cos- tuning the principals and the chorus. MT. Thomas and all who have heard it say 1t is singularly dramatic. It is full Of melodic beauty and the orchestration is modern and full of rich color
