BROWN CONFIDENT
 OF SUCCESS IN THE
 SEVENTH DISTRICT

Watt T. Brown of Ragland, candidate for Congress from the Seventh district, is of the opinion that he will be chosen as the successor to John L. Burnett by the voters tomorrow MT. Brown was in Birmingham for a few hours last night and was registered at the Tutwiler. He left at an early hour this morning for Gadsden, where he will spend the day and will return to his home tonight in time to vote tomorrow.
 T am confident that I will be chosen congressman from the Seventh district Tuesday," said MT. Brown last night "I have conducted an active campaign, free from mudslinging, and I believe that the voters of my district are ready for a change. Among the criticisms which MT. Burnett has made of me is the fact that I received some vote in a city election in my home town, Ragland, several years ago and was not elected. As matter of fact and as I have pointed out during my recent speeches, I was a member of the state senate when the election was held and was not even a candidate. My name was not on the ticket. Some of my friends cast vote for me by writing my name on the ticket purely as a compli- ment, but the people understand that proposition thoroughly
 MT. Brown stated that he spoke Satur- day at Guntersville, Albertville, Boaz and Alabama City, ard was greeted by large crowds at each place.

 The report recommends that the chambers of commerce and boards of trade throughout the United States join in asking Congress to pass the following resolution:
 Whereas, the controversy that has arisen between the railroads and certain of their employees re- lating to a shortening of the hours of labor without corresponding de- crease in pay and for increased compensation for any service per formed in excess of the daily pe- riod prescribed, may lead to a se- rious interruption of the railroad service with disastrous effect upon the public welfare and upon the commerce of the nation. Now, therefore. be it

LITTLE NEW YORK STORIES
 BY A BIRMINGHAM MAN
By ALLEN GRIFFIN JOHNSON

Scotland render the whisky useless there. Of course, all this is cheering informa- ton to us, but just suppose we had to sit around and look at the consignment until a Scotchman offered to buy the drinks.
 And yetf in spite of the fact that the white way cafes. restaurants, lobster palaces, hotels, etc, are all doing splen- did business nightly-and daily--one sees no more drunkenness on the streets of Manhattan than he would in the average city of the 100,000 class The explana ation is difficult. Perhaps it is that New York is so accustomed to drinking that it car ries it's drinks soberly The fellow who gets noisy from drink here is generally a visitor, and he soon learns better Painting the town red must be confined to smaller places. There's plenty of \paint here, but there's too much town.
 To show how intensely New York is interested in other places, here is the way local sport writer tells about Buenos Ayres: Tt is proposed to put on cham pionship prize fights in Buenos Ayres in conjunction with a monster athletic car nival being arranged to celebrate the Tooth anniversary of something or other.n has recently resulted in two casualties, it seems. Iris said the little love god used to shoot arrows, but it has since been proved that his most effective method is hand-to-hand encounter.

 international law, diplomatic relations would be severed Just as soon as the facts were established and without any further exchange of communications.
 President Wilson spent nearly all of today indoors, giving careful study to the text of the German communica- ton and determining the exact mean ing of the words employed. Secretary Lansing also had examined the note in detail at Annapolis. where he went to spend the week end Soon after the Secretary returned to Washington he was summoned to the White House.
 Efforts to obtain the text of the mes sage from Pope Benedict to the Presi- dent on the submarine situation and peace delivered by Monsignor Bonzano, the apostolic delegate here. yesterday were unavailing. At both the White House and the papal legation it was said nothing would be given out.
 In connection with the peace sugges- tions in the German note the atten- ton of officials was attracted here to- day by passage in a statement given out in London last night by; Lord Rob- ert Cecil minister of war, in which he mentioned the discussion of peace by Germany and added that "our attitude. at any rate. is unchanged" This state ment was regarded as meaning that the allies were not ready to discuss peace on Germany's terms.
 Regarding reports that President Wilson had suggested the canceling of meeting which was to have been held in New York today commemorating the first anniversary of the sinking of the Lusitania, Secretary Tumulty, speak ing for the President. tonight issued the following statement:
 "The administration played no part in any way, even the slightest sug- gestion, in calling off the Lusitania memorial meeting"

New York, May 6.-(Specal.) )-Now that prohibition and politics have accomplish ed the occupation of Alabama, and like wise her sister state which so recently capitulated to the carolng Caruso, per- haps the beleaguered forces would enjoy a message of cheer from the outer world read, then, and ruminate: 24,3s4.000 drinks of Scotch whisky reached New York city this week on the Anchor liner Tuscania, from Glasgow.
 Of course, the consignment wasn't desig- mated in that way. It was described as 700 tons, but passengers on board the liner made estimates and calculations which show that the whisky would pro- vide the 24,000,000 drinks, provided each quart was considered as 16 drinks How ever, it is admitted that some people might be able to get away with quart in F drinks. Just the same, there were 1,5240O0 quarts aboard the Tuscania, and not a passenger was intoxicated.
 This shipment might cheer up Ala bamians and Georgians more or less, yet one cannot but feel depressed when 1t is proved by figures that all this whisky will supply New York city for only one hour and half.
 But again we are lifted from the Slough of Despond by the announcement that the crowded many more hundreds of thou sands of cases of whisky awaiting ship ment here The drink restriction laws in
