BOTH SIDES HEARD

Washington, December 16.-Woman su1Irage advocates and opponents hoth depated the proposed federal suffra ge amendment today before congressional committees. Representatives of the National Woman suffrage association the Congressional Union and the Ma t1onal Association Opposed to Suffrage were given a hearing by the judiciary committee of the House and the Con- gressional Union delegates also ap- peared before the Senate committee on suffrage
 The House committee sat practical " throughout the day, listening first to the national association speakers headed by pr. Anna Howard Shaw, their president. then to those of the congressional Union, led by Miss Alice Paul, and finally to the anti-suffra- gists. with their president, Mrs Ar thur M. Dodge.
 tioned spok kesmen of the Congression- al Union closely as to their reasons Tor campaigning in the last election against democratic candidates for re- election to the House who had SUD- ported the suffrage cause. Miss Paul, Mrs. Minna Van Wrinkle of New Jer- sey, Mrs. Lillian Ashcough of Connec- ticut and other speakers frankly de- clared that they had opposed these candidates because they had partici- pated in democratic caucus which decreed that the federal suffrage amendment should not be made part of the legislative programme at the last session. Several of the women re- marked that their campaign had been effective, as the democratic leaders now were not proposing to prevent a vote on the amendment by caucus ac-, tion
 Dr. Shaw, Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and other members of the national association declared they did not sup port the militant tactics of the Con- gressional Union; that they were non partisan in their appeals for votes on the Susan B. Anthony amendment, and that they appealed to both democrats and republicans, despite the attitude any members had taken in the past
 Mrs. Dodge told the committee that the ti-suffragist represented the great majority of unorganized women Of the country who opposed suffrage and believed that the question should be left to the states. She referred to the recent defeat of suffrage in New York, Massachusetts and other states and said it would be unfair for Con- gress to force these states to vote az ain on a subject already decided. Mrs. o. D. Oliphant, secretary of the New Jersey Association Opposed to Suffrage, declared that women were not suffering any injustice from man made government.

 morning of Wednesday, December S.
 He was arrested two hours later and
 the grand jury indicted him last Sat
 urday. Then he was placed on trial
 yesterday, just seven days after the
 crime.
 The case has become one of the most celebrated in the criminal annals of Lawrence county and the people of Moulton have been wrought up over it. Feelings have been high for the past several days. Although Hale shot Williams in self defense, according to his claim, he told no one of the crime until he was arrested. The body of Williams was found three hours aft CT he was killed, by his wife She came home from visit to make the gruesome discovery.
 Hale was on trial all day yester- day and late yesterday afternoon the case went to the jury A. A. Car
 michael of Tuscumbia, speaker of the house of representatives of the Ala bama legislature, defended Hale. He was opposed by Solicitor David C. Al mon for the state. Both lawyers made brilliant speeches before the jury yes terday.
 Judge Robert Brickell discharged the jury late this afternoon and Hale was remanded to jail at Moulton in default of bond.

is rather anious to have a talk with
president Wilson and place before him
certain ideas regarding the pacifica-

I will paint for president Wilson a

return to Mexico by way of Washington
and If opportunity affords, I shall glad

CONTINUED Fighting a Calamity
MeXicans as a whole have come to
regard the continued fighting as a
calamity. The country is distrought.
Communications are interrupted. Bust

some time to recover from the waste
OF the past few years. but we can re-
cover under wise and patriotic ad-
ministratiOn capable of maintaining or

@RevOlutiOn Is Dead"
The revolution as Initiated is dead
The ideal for which we fought-the
overthrow Of special privileges and
esta blishment of political and civil
freedom have been accomplished. It is
now a question only OF men. Personal
ambition and Jealousy as exhibited by
Carranza only stand in the way Of
peace and prosperity. Gen. Villa is
prepared to eliminate himself. Car
rama must do likewise.
I have no exact plan but I have Ger
tain ideas for the restoration Of the
country and these hope to lay before
President Wilson I shall not discuss
them except with him It is no secret
however, that I am in favor OF pro-
yisiOnal president who has not been
allied with any faction. He must not
be a military man. We have had
enough Of military presidents. I in
clude myself among those who are not
eligible. I have no ambition for the
presidency, nor has Gen. Villa.

For provisional president pending

who is a revolutionist in principle bur
not a military leader. A strong bust

Will negotiate with Carranza even
though he is regarded as a rebel, and
with the other factions and I believe
that wis proper spirit shown we can
agree upon some one satisfactory TO all
Unless some such an agreement is
reached we must fight on until all sides
are exhausted
Intervene With Money.
Intervention in the sense Of any
army of invasion would never b. IN
derstood by Mexicans as in their inter

intervention may take other forms
that appear more friendly. There is
the moral force Of the United States,
the facilitating Of the movement across /
the border OF munitions Of war. and
lastly, financial aid Intervention
along these lines would be acceptable Z

are interested in the restoration OF
their government country
