EDUCATORS TALK
 ON PREPAREDNESS
New York School Head Says Compul- sorry Training Should Not Interfere
 With Cultural Advancement

New York July 3.-Preparedness, edu- cation and plans for world peace were discussed at the opening session of the National Education association conven- tion here today. Former President Taft, President David B. Johnson of the as- sociation. Dr. David Starr Jordan, vice president of the association, and P. P. ClaXton, commissioner of education, were among the speakers.
 The educators, numbering nearly 10000. were welcomed to the city by Mayor Mitchell and to the state by Governor Whitman.
 The lesson of this year. Mayor Mitchell said, is that mo country can secure trained service in cases of national dis aster If 1t does not teach its youth to take its place in the forces of the de. fense of the republic"
 William H. Maxwell superintendene of schools of New York city, declared that if compulsory military training must come, it should not interfere with cultural training, which would prevent military training from degenerating into militarism.
 President Johnson spoke on '"The Ru- ral Home and the Farm Woman" He said the neds of the farm woman have been forgotten in all of the progressive movements for rural betterment until comparatively recent years. He said he hoped President Wilson would appoint a national commission to study the problem.
 Former President Taft devoted his address to an exposition of the plan and aims of the League to Enforce Peace, of which he is president.
 At the meeting of the American School Peace league, it was decided to urge the convention that war maps and details of battle fields be eliminated from the study of history and to treat only the causes, spirit and results of wars.

 There is little, if any, real ground for complaint on the part of the employers employees"
 ITO employers of labor" declared Mir. Gary. T would say: Treat your men right; treat them justly and liberalIy.' To employees I would say: Loyal, effi- cient service is sure to be rewarded. Do not permit outsiders to influence you to act contrary to your own interests To both employer and employe I would em- phasiZe the fact that each must rely upon the others success; neither is independent of the other. They must succeed or fail together.'

They were comparatively new troops, men who had little or no experi- ence either of country life of physical work, but they fought like regulars, with dash. infinite grit, endurance and. more over, gaiety. What sight it must have been to see those clerks drive the enemy from his commanding hill and crucial position!
 "The troops at their flank who fought with them and made good their great advance were farmers boys from half a dozen midland counties Town and country, office and field shook hands in that great fight and various extremes of English life and blood proved their equality notably as at Agincourt or Waterloo"

Birmingham to Celebrate
 the Fourth Tn Royal Style
By CLARENCE G. THOMSON

Birmngham's cloak of commerce and finance will be thrown aside today to give place to gala togs" in keeping with the celebration of the nations birthday. Prac- tically all the business houses and pro- fessional offices will be closed all day while the general stores will close doors at noon, and Birmingham will enter into the celebration of the glorious Fourth with as much spirit and enthusiasm as any city in the nation
 From all evidences the holiday will be celebrated in a very sane way in Bir- ihgham No big demonstration has been planned, and thousands of persons will flock to the woods for a quet days out ing, while thousands of others will go to the various other amusement places where the day is to be celebrated.
 While there will be no downtown dem onstration, to speak of, East Lake is all decked out in gala attire and the manage ment is expecting a record reaking crowd at the big picnic, fireworks and outing. There will be all kinds of attrac- tions at this pleasure resort to make person forget the heat, office and shop and enjoy full day

chief in the event of foreign war. Gen eral Carranza tonight issued an order that both generals were to be expelled from Mexico.
 Similar offers continue to be received daily and some of them have been taken under advisement
 General Carranza attended today the military exercises of the volunteers who have offered their services in the event of war. He expressed satisfaction at the appearance of the men and congrat tulated them on their patriotism
 The governor of Zacatecas has reported to the Secretary of War that the rebel leader, Col Enrique Ugarte, has surren- dered internationally with 280 of his men.
 Advices from Guadalajara say that a large troop movement toward the north has been carried out lately from that place. Four long military trains, carry ing men of all three branches of the service, several carloads of ammunition and heavy field pieces and machine guns, have been sent to reinforce General Trevino.
 Banks, exchange houses and brokerag ge firms which for the last few weeks have suspended operations due to a government decree prohibiting them from operating in foreign or local exchange, will resume business tomorrow.
 This resumption is due to a decree of General Carranza permitting the transac- tion of general banking business as the crisis occasioned over the transfer of the paper money issue has passed. The ex- change value of the new money has bet tered considerably during the last two days.
 The government has decided to estab- fish three new legations in Central Amer ica. One will have charge of Mexican interests in Costa Rica and Honduras, a second will represent Mexico in Salvador and Nicaragua and third will be estab- Hshed in Guatemala

PAPER co. PLANT IS
 DAMAGED BY FIRE

Fire broke out in the rear of the build ing occupied by the Alabama Paper & Printing company, 1709 Second avenue. at 12:3o last night, partly destroying the stock and doing considerable damage to machinery. The alarm was responded to by all downtown fire stations and while the blaze had made good headway before they arrived, hard work on the part of the firemen saved the building and its contents.
 The fire originated in the rear of the building in the stereotyping department. The flames made a sweep through the building, scorching the edges of paper stock stored on the shelves, and doing slight damage to presses and other print ing and binding machines.
 No accurate estimate could be made of the damage last night, but it is thought that it will be slight

NEW DEVELOPMENT IN EAST

Berlin, July 3.-(Via London.)-The Russians have launched an attack against the army of Prince Leopold on the central section of the eastern front.
 The war office report of today says the Russians succeeded in advancing at one point. but otherwise were forced to retreat with heavy losses.
 The Russians also attacked at many points along the northern part of front against Field Marshal von Hindenburgs troops. but gained no advantage The official account of operations in the east follows:
 Russian torpedo boats and the ship of-the-line Slava bombarded the Cour- land coast east of Raggazem. without result They were attacked effectively by our coastal batteries and by aero plane squadrons and the Slava was struck.
 At many points -along the front of Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, the enemy increased his force and repeated ly undertook advances. These led to fighting on our lines near Nik, north Of Smorgon. The enemy was elected immediately with heavy losses. We captured PAS Russians.
 "On the front of Prince Leopold, the Russians attacked northeast and east of Gerodische, and on both sides of the Baranovichi railway, after artillery attack is now proceeding against de- tachments which advanced northeast of Gorodische. Otherwise the enemy was

 The sport loving public will divide their attention between the two baseball games at Redwood park and the Picker s handicap" golf tournament to be held at the Country club. While the ball games in the morning and afternoon will draw capacity the golf tournament is expected to bring many golfers to the links as well as a large gallery.
 In addition to all these things Camp Wilcox, United Confederate Veterans, will give a delightful programme in cele- bration of the occasion at Clark & Jones Music hall at o'clock. A musical pro- gramme carrying out the national idea will be given and the general public is invited to join the boys of the eos in celebrating the nations birthday. Aside from all this the movies will offer a re- sort to those who have planned to take no outing.
 Giving all those things justice they will not be in it, along with the fun that the hundreds of truck riders and picnickers will have. As whole this will be a great day for Birmingham, as the bulk of per sens composing the populace are expect ing to have the time of their lives
