How the ancient Japanese ceremony
Of betrothing children when they are
hardly out of their cradles, influences
the lives and destinies of two Ameri-
canized Niponese, is graphically
shown in the thrilling photodrama
"Alien Souls" the Lasky production
which will be seen at the Murrette to-
night with Sessue Hayakawa in the
stellar role. Mr.. Hayakawa created
such Juror by his wonderful perform
ance with Fannie Ward in THE
Cheat" that the public demanded he be
given a starring vehicle. The Lasky
company accordingly commissioned
Hector 'Turnbull, the noted dramatist
who was responsible for 1.-The Cheat"
to write a photodrama for the alien
star. Mr.. Hayakawa is supported by
an all-star cast including such brill
liant artists as Earle Foxe, Florence
Smythe, Robert Grey, Grace Benham
and Isabelle Malone. 1t is Paramount

 a Mir. President, I had thought that the sday for this sort of performance, north

 the history of our country when the Hires of sectional hate burned high, and lwhen appeals of that kind were often lamade and too often controlled the cleo gtions, but it had seemed to me that we ahavc at last gotten away from that Dit Hter period and that once more we had yreunited country and homogeneous peo- iple, and that the man who would un- dertake, in the north or In the south' to relight the smoldering embers of sec ltional prejudice was not only not Ibroad-ninded American patriot but was ! an enemy to his country and foe to Hts truest interests.
 N recall that when the Spanish-Amer- Htcan war made it's appeal to the patriot Ism of the country the response came with equal promptness and equal volume from the north, the east. the west. and
 the south; that in that war the sons of 3the men who wore the gray in the sixties

 BETTER LIVE STOCK
Meetings Will Be Held to Encourage Forage Crops
 and Cattle Raising

Auburn, August 19.-(Special.) .)-Alabama ter farming. It is to begin in the north ern part of the state on Tuesday, Au- gust 22
 Plans as recently worked out by Prof. J. F. Duggar, director of the extension service, and his colleagues at Auburn, provide for the continuation of this work for seven weeks.
 Three crews of specialists will begin in
 the northern tier of counties on August 22 and spend two days in each county, meantime holding four or five meetings in
 each county. These crews will work
 gradually southward, devoting the re- maining part of August, all of Septem-
 Der, and the early part of October to this
 forage crop and live stock campaign.
 The speakers will devote chief attention to oats and other small grains, and to the winter cover crops, such as vetches,
 bur clover, crimson clover. etc. The im- portance of live stock will also be
 stressed, and the speakers in some of the crews are experts in various branches Of animal husbandry. Each demonstration agent will have charge of the campaign in his county and will arrange and publish the dates and places of the meetings. Besides the agents, speaking will be done by two visiting experts, who in most cases will either be specialists from the extension service at Auburn or agricultural agents oe some railroad. The meetings planned for the counties that are to be covered during the first week are the following: Jackson: Tuesday and Wednesday, Au-
 gust 22-2a
 Madison Thursday and Friday, Au- gust 24-25. Etowah: Tuesday and Wednesday, Au-
 gust 22-23.

people, and that the time had come in the providence of the Almighty when the federal government should assist in the preservation of the graves of Confederate soldiers. I recall that while our people did not fully accept this generous offer, although it was very deeply appreciated, it was only because that they felt that in their own land, their own loving care would be all sufficient, and I recall that about four years ago a distinguished senator from the north (Mr. Pomerene of Ohio) proposed and had adopted an amendment to one of the appropriation bills by which the federal government undertook to care for the graves of Con- federate soldiers who had died in prison at Johnson Island, O.
 OPINION OF HUGHES
 recall the many patriotic utterances of both Presidents Roosevelt and Taft on this great question, and I recall the elo- quent appeals of our greatest statesmen and truest patriots, both north and south, for the establishment of the union in love and for the eternal abandonment of sectional prejudice and hatred.
 An, MT. President, when I recall all of these things, and when I recall the prouo-spirited, high-strung, long-suffer- ing people of my own section, anxious to feel that they are in fact at peace for evermore with their brethren and that they are, indeed, welcome back in the house that their fathers built. and when recall the brave. just, and generous people of every state in the north and west who have extended the olive branch in good faith and who do not approve of these attempts to revive and rekindle sectional hatred, then I cannot help but feel that any party that would teach the American people to hate each other is not fit to serve the American people, and I cannot help but feel that any pres ioential candidate who. in his eager hunt Tor votes' would stoop to appeal to passions and prejudices of this sort is not big enough or brave or broad enough h heart or in mind to be worthy Pres ident of the whole country and of a re- united people,

BURNETTS STATEMENT

"I am in touch with the situation" said MT. Burnett. From every section of the country. American labor is demanding the passage of the bill Indiana is espe- cially determined. Labor leaders from that state declare that they cannot un- derstand the position of Senator Kern. They declare that they fear his determi- nation to prevent the passage or the con- sideration of the bill, will mean his de- feat If democrats lose senators in 1n- diana, 1t is possible. is 1t not, that they will lose, also, the electoral votes of that state?
 T. myself. cannot understand the situ-' ation-why the democrats hesitate. If they hesitate through fear of embarras- sing the President there is a way out of their quandary. Chey should enact the bill just as the session concludes. It would not then be up to the President until pecember-for conference would still have to act on it's provisions"

 PROLONG SESSION

 ing by means of which one might pre- dict the date of the bill s passage through the Senate.
 And then it must be recalled the reve- nue bill will go back to the House. Dem ocratic Leader Kitchin prepared his measure with a great deal of care It is known that he has looked with dis favor on the effort of the Senate to de- stroy his "favorite." And it is known that he will not accept with equanimity the result of the Senate's efforts. There fore, there will be another long wrangle in committee, and another long wrangle in conference.
 If Kern's prediction that adjournment will be ordered September 1 materializes in fact, all of the foregoing kinks must be ironed out within Il days-an impos- sible task, it is believed.
 And there are other problems. An ef- fort this week to induce republicans to aid In hastening the session to con- clusion was completely frosted" The republicans stated very boldly that they would agree to nothing unless the dem- ocrats would promise in writing to refrain from attempting to pass this session the corrupt practice act-that which would limit contributions to presidential cam paign expenses.
 At first, it looked easy. For demo- crats, let 1t be understood, are no more anxious to enact the corrupt practice bill at time when it's effect would bear on the present campaign, than republicans. But Senator Owens, author of that bill, nterposed. He refused to promise that he would not call up at moment he might judge opportune, his pet measure.
 And thus there is another obstacle.
 G. o. P. PLAYS CARD
 And the republicans are recalcitrant. They demand the passage of the Burnett immigration bill. Everybody favors that bill save the Presirent of the United States He threatens to veto it-and if he does veto it, he will in part alienate, it Is agreed the union labor vote which at present seems inclined to support democ- racy. Democratic leaders are adverse to embarrassing the administration. The re- publicans want 1t understood that they are insistent on the passage of the meas ure-and that democrats are preventing its passage. There is no question but that 1t is regarded as vote 'getter." In this connection, Representative Bur- nett author of the immigration bill, de- clared just prior to his departure Thurs day evening for Alabama, that the posi- ton of Senate democrats, respecting ths immigration bill, would defeat certain senators-one among whom being Sena- tor Kern of Indiana, democratic leader of the Senate.
