Washington, Dec. 4.-Natlona de-
Tense and the means of providing
money to carry out the adnlinistra-
ton plans, admittedly, are the chief
problems which the sixty-fourth con-
gress will face when it assemblies at
noon Monday.
Democratic leaders who had hoped
to make military preparedness a nom
partisan question are not confident OF
success, notwithstanding the wide
spread endorsement given President
Wilson's program by prominent mem
bers and organizations affiliated with
minority parties. The chief stumbling
block is the method Of raising the
enormous revenues which will be
needed.
Certain republican leaders have in.
dicated they are ready to make po.

SWEARING IN JAPANESE.

II Rarely Happens, bat When 1t Does
II 10 Something Appalling.
The Jap is always polite, but once
In awhile he slips from grace, and
when he does he is up against 1t, for
there are no swear words in the Japa-
nese language.
When japanese meets you he bows
three times and takes off his hat, but
does not shake hands. When he greets
you his first concern is about your an
cestors and next about your stomach.
1t would be almost an open insult for
one japanese to meet another without
asking him how his stomach Jared
On the third bow he asks, This morn
ing how is it with your honorable In
sidesT'
As you come up ON your third bow
you answer to the effect that the place
mentioned rs doing as well as could be
expected and in turn ask him what
news he has had from the front. Then
he lifts his hat again and says, Your
delightful head this morning. hope it
have no commOtiOn."
When you tell him that you are pleas
ed to report that 1t feels well this
morning he asks about a few genera
lions of honorable ancestors, and then
you are free to take up the weather.
Even though they are deliberately po
lite. once in awhile one japanese will
get mad at another. Their anger kin
dies slowly at first, finally tanning into
blaze that knows no staying. But
even though there is torrent of emo
ton seething in his soul, there are no
words to give 1t vent. 1t keeps surging
harder and harder until he throws aside
all restraint and gives up all idea of
decency by putting into one phrase all
his bitterness and swapping squarely
into the other mans astonished face
the worst thing that can be said in the
whole language. "Your stomach is not
on straightr'
This is the final insult. Nothing
more can be added; he has cast the
glove. There is nothing left for him
to do but to give his enemy cutting
look, turn on his heel and haughtily

LOOKS LIKE FIXTURE WITH M0[EY'S CLUB Fans Watching Work of Grimes With Consider
 able Interest

Birmingham fandom is watching with interest the work of Burleigh Grimes at the Baron training camp. Grimes is the same boy who saw service with the Bar ons during the early spring of last year but the development of bad arm made it necessary for Moley to send him to the bushes for recuperation. Crimes natural ability was unquestioned. and the local management held on to him as long as possible before casting him adrift. Under the sunny skies of the coast, however, the sore whip speedily recovered its cum ming and two weeks after his departure from Birmingham Grimes was the hero of a two-hit contest.
 This season the young hurler appears to be in the best possible condition, and he bids fair to be among the survival of the Attest when Boss Moley makes the final cut in his hurling department. Grimes has a host of friends among the Birmingham public who have great faith in his ability and who are pulling to see him a fixture here. Grimes is a hard worker and has worlds of stuff. If he continues the stride set last season there is not a chance in the world to get the boy out of the Southern league, even should Moley do the unexpected and hand him a release

ID START WORK ON AMATEUR LEAGUES
At Meeting Last Night the Movement Is Formally
 Launched

At meeting held in the offices of the city recreation department last night the movement to organize anna teur baseball for Birmingham was formally launched.
 large number of young men at tended the meeting and it was decided to take steps looking to the formation of the various amateur leagues at once. The lines upon which the organisation is to be framed provide for the forma- ton of some 40 or 90 twilight leagues and one city league. The twilight league will be entirely local In this organization no teams of one locality will meet any but the teams of that circuit. The most promising twilight league athletes will be selected for the various clubs in the City league. City league contests will be played on Saturdays and a regular schedule will be provided at an early date. The twilight league contests will take place only on week days and will be played late in the afternoons.
 It was decided last night to hold another meeting on April 25 when a board Of governors for the two assu- citations will be formed. In the mean time the young men interested will begin the formation of the various clubs in the twilight leagues
