1t was Decided to File Com
plant With the Interstate
Commerce Commission.


At meeting of the directors of the
Board of Trade to be held at the
boards quarters in the city hall thi5
afternoon at A o'clock. il is expected
that some definite action regarding
the reported discrimination against
Brunswick by the Southern railway
and other public carriers will be taken,
and the fight against this discrimlna-
ton will undoubtedly be started
This meeting of the directors was
decided upon yesterday morning at
meeting of the executive committee of
the board, when the question Of this
discrimination was taken up and an.
proved. In view OF the fact. however.
that is seemed TO be the attitude of
some Of the directors that no action
should be taken il was agreed veg.
terday te@cnft tifd directors together
this afternoon, in order that they may
go over the entire situation.
The executive committee has au
thorized Secretary Weatherly to take
whatever action Is necessary to rem
edy this alleged discrimination, which
Iit seems, is generally admitted and
the secretary has written a letter to
President Harrison, of the Southern,
notifying him of the proposed action
Of appealing to the interstate com
merCe commission bur before doing
this conference in Brunswick OF all
parties concerned has been requested
Since the recent trouble between
the Southern Railway. the Strachan
line and the Macon-Atlantic Naviga-
tion company, resulting In the with
drawal Of the latter company from
Brunswick, there has been consider
able discussion of the question Fol
lowing a meeting OF the executive
committee of the board, authorizing
such action, President Butts and See
retary Weatherly petitioned council
to hold up the lease to the foot OF
Mansfield street, contending that the
Macon company was being discrimi-
mated against. TIE fight over the pc.
tition caused two lengthy sessions of
council, and the petition was finally
denied on close vote, not because
members Of council did not think the
discrimination existed, but rather be-
cause they did not believe any con
ftrary action by council would in any
way remedy the situation
However, the executive committee
has since authorized the secretary to
lodge a complaint with the interstate
commerce commission. and the ques
tion Is more than likely to be fought
out

present at the meeting this afternoon.

MEETS;
SOON AOJOURNS
OUT OF RESPECT TO JUSTICE
LAMAR-NO ATTACK MADE
ON MEXICO.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Am ex-
pected attack on the administration
foreign policy and its course in the
submarine crisis, failed to materialize
in the senate today when that body
after being in session less than ten
minutes adjourned until noon tomor-
row. The reason assigned to the
sudden adjournment by leaders on
both sides was that several senators
who had business to present did not
have it ready
The motion on which the senate
adjourned, however, was in observ-
ance of the death of Associate JUS
tice Lamar of the supreme court.
Earlier in the day Chairman Stone
of the foreign relations committee,
in conference with President Wilson,
over the submarine crisis, told the
president he lad heard intimations
that some senators were going to as
sail the administration course and
that some others were going to at
tack the Mexican policy.
The international situation was up
permost in the minds of both senate
and house as they reassembled today
for the real work of the session after
the holiday recess.
Senator Fall, Republican of New
Mexico, had ready a resolution call
ing on President Wilson to inform
the senate to what government he
proposed to accredit Henry Prathe
Fletcher, who has been nominated
for ambassador to Mexico. He will
introduce the resolution tomorrow
and it is expected that it will be
made the vehicle for a general
Republican attack, not on Mr.. Fletch-
er, but upon the administration S
Mexican policy. Other senators who
share Senator Falls views declare
the senate has no knowledge of a
government in Mexico and that the
presidents last communication to
congress on the subject described a
state of anarchy.

MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION RE
ORGANIZES AND PLANS ARE
ON FOOT TO ENLARGE THE
ORGANIZATION.
MEETING HELD YESTERDAY
Committee Named to Decide Up
on Secretary, Fix His Sal
airy and Report Back at a
Meeting to Be Held Friday.

The Retail Merchants association
held meeting in the Board of Trade
yooms at the city hall yesterday after
noon for the purpose of reorganiZing,
on a larger scale than ever, taking
up the question of credit system,
deciding upon paid secretary for
the organization, and handling other
matters of interest to the organiza-
ton
Some thirty retail merchants were
present at the meeting, all of them
being heartily in favor of a reorganiza-
ton on broader lines, and all of those
present pledged their support to the
association, which is TO enlarge it's
general scope and cover all needs of a
retail organization.
1t was agreed at the meeting yester-
day that the dues Of the association
be increased to" sufficient amount
monthly to employ a paid secretary
for the organization, whose work will
be that of keeping up with all matters
of the association, handling thee redit
system soon to be inaugurated, and to
devote all of his time to the business
Of the organization. The amount of
salary to be paid the secretary was not
decided upon at the meeting, but it
IS understood that it viii be fixed at
$7o or probably 500 per month, and
an efficient and capable man for the
place will be secured.
motion prevailed that the preSi-
dent of the organization. r. Y. Smith,
appoint a committee of five to elect
the secretary and make other recon-
mndations as to the future of the or
ganZation, and report back at a meet
ing to be held on Friday The presi-
dent appointed on this committee L.
H. Haym, e. c. Marlin, B. f. Mann,
n. ]. Mccall and f. l.. Stephens. The
committee will hold a meeting before
Friday and frame it's report.
The question of a credit system has
just been taken up by the organiza
tion and it has been decided to inau-
gurate it in Brunswick. This will re-
quire the services of a special man,
and it has been decided to employ
paid secretary to handle this feature
as well as all other matters.
The meeting yesterday was quite an
enthusiastic one, nearly all of the re-
tail merchants being represented, and
it is safe TO say that this Brunswick
organization will be a real live one in
future.

TROUBLE IN ENGLAND OVER
COMPULSORY SERVICE IN
ARMY STILL CONSIDERED
SERIOUS BREACH.
SIR JOHN SIMON RESIGNS
He Quits the Office of Secretary
of Home Affairs-ReginaId
McKenna and Walter Runci-
man May Also Resign.

LONDON, Jan. At again be-
comes evident that the cabinet crisis
is far from ended The only definite
point is that Sir John Simon, secre-
tary of state for home affairs, has re-
signed, He had n prolonged inter
view with Premier Asquith yesterday.
The premier did his utmost to induce
Sir John to remain in the cabinet,
but without avail and it is almost
certain that Simon's resignation will
be officially announced when parlia-
ment reassembles.
The position of Reginald McKen-
ma, chancellor of the eXchequer, and
Walter Runciman, president of the
board of trade is still undecided.
They are making the acceptance of
the government compulsion bill con
ditional upon securing concession
to their views on the eventual size of
the army.
In this matter Premier Asquth is
in an embarrassing position. He is
being strongly imRelled from the out
side not to yield this position. Hence

slider the latest draft of the com
puision bin may result in further
changes. The treatment of Ireland
is another thprny problem All of
the papers, both conscriptionists and
supporters of voluntary enlistments,
from the operation of the bill and
that the press association statement
that Ireland would be included was
inaccurate.
Much light will be thrown on the
strained situation by the details of
the working of the plant of the Earl
of Derby. director of recruiting, the
figures of which will be published to-
day The final draft of the new bill
viii be considered by the committee
this morning, an hour before the reg
ular cabinet council The Morning
Post expressed the belief that Pre-
mier Asquith has been able to give
Mr.. McKenna and Mr. Runciman as
surances that measures can and will
be- taken to insure that a sufficient
number of men will be left to carry
on all trades vital TO the interest of
the country
The Daily Chronicle says that the
new bill will contain clause safe
guarding the navy and estimates that
when all allowances are made the
new bill will bring only 100000 men
into the army.
Wednesdays sitting of parliament
will be of exceeding interest Be
sides Premier Asquiths statement,
Sir John Simon will make bref ad.
dress explaining his position. He has
already taken formal farewell OF his
departmental comrades. The names
Of Lewis Harcourt, first commissioner
of works, and Herbert Samuel, chan
! cellor Of the Duchy of Lancaster, are
mentioned among his possible success
sors at the home office.

patriotism. The strikers felt that
they had been unduiy exploited. Their
sole demand was that they be accord
ed a reasonable share of the war pro-
fits from their labor. In both the
big strikes, the men won.
This years disturbance on the Clyde
was different. 1t was obviously or
ganized by men of pro-German sym
pathies and most Britishers believe,
financed by Germans. The labor
headers had no part in it; they pro-
tested against it. The government
,sequestered the agitators and killed
the strike.
The Tiletts of England, men who
previously had put the rights of or
gained labor above everything else,
have surrendered their most cherished
principles. In the interest Of the En-
pire the trade unions have forfeited
for the period of the war practically
all they had succeeded in establishing
through desperate and bitter strug-
gle. Their greatest sacrifice was the
'"dilution Of labor" or placing unskill-
ed workers on par with the skilled
both men and women The bars of
unionism have been let completely
down in the name of patriotism. The
Unions agreement with the govern
ment provides:
"Co-operative efforts to increase
production of the adoption of all ex-
pedicnts which tend to increase and
maintain output; interchangcabiIity
inside the trade of various classes
who are members of the trade; sus-
pension for the period of the war OF
all Internal lines of dcmarkation, and
introduction from allied and other
trades of skilled men, unskilled men
and women"
This is organized labor's reply to
the charge of lack Of patriotism. The
unions are still passing resolutions
against the principle and application
of conscription-against the one be-
cause it is repugnant to the Ideals OF
mionism and against the other be-
cause they still think it unnecessary
But there have been and will be no

draft riots ir England as there were
in New York during the Civil War
So much for Ben 7illett and his
friends. How about Ireland?
Most of the Irish opposition in the
war is of American origin. There are
no finer patriots in Great Britain to
day than John Redmond and Sir Ed
ward Carson, each representing ex-
IRENE poles of Irish politics. The
Sim Fein rebellion, organized by
well-meaning but misguided idealists,
encouraged by self-expatriated Irish
men in America, financed by Ger
many, was not an expression Of Irish
national sentiment. No troops in the
whole Empire have fought more gal
lantiy or suffered greater losses than
the Irish regiments. The Obstetrics
have proven their patriotism by con-
senting to the Inauguration of Home
Rule forthwith. The Nationaiists
have demonstrated theirs by agreeing
to the exclusion Of Ulster from its
provisions. Patriotism alone is solv-
ing the Irish question. Altogether
Great Britain is showing a morefrmIy
.nited front today than when the war
started or than a year ago. Capital
and Labor have been drawn closer to-
ygether. The overseas dominions
have exhibited magnificent loyalty.
Even India, upon which Germany con-
fdently counted for seditionary activi-
ties, if not rebellion, has remained
stcadfaSt.
But to Britishers the most encour-
aging sign is the attitude Of the bust
ness community As Lord Reyei-
stoke, EnglandS greatest merchant
banker recently told the United
Press:
80 long as our military authorities
require money to carry on the war
we shall shrink from no sacrifice in
order to provide it."
