BLOCKADE POLICY
TO Be PROTESTED

Washington, August 30.-It was an
nounced today that the protest which
Secretary Lansing yesterday promised
a delegation of tobacco growers to send
Great Britain regarding the reimposi-
ton of the tobacco embargo, will follow
the lines of the general protest against
the whole British blockade policy. 1t
now Is in preparation and should go
forward in few days
The communication will not be made
public, as it is regarded by the de-
partment as merely a detailed protest
railing under the general blockade
head. 1t is expected to lay particular
stress on the impossibi1ity of tobacco
being in any sense contraband and the
disastrous results the curtaiIing of ex-
portation will have, on American pro
ducers.
Senator James introduced an amend
ment to the revenue bill in the Senate
today authorizing President Wilson, in
his discretion, to prohibit from impor-
tation into the United States such ar
ticles as are prohibited by foreign gov
ernments during the existence of a war.
from importation from the United
States Although no mention is made
of the subject, it is understood that the
amendment is proposed by way of re-
taliation against Great Britain for the
tobacco embargo.
Senator James explained that the
amendment had been submitted to Sec
rotary Lansing and approved by him.

ACTION DEFERRED
ON LOCATION OF
TRAINING SCHOOL
Governor Decides to Give
Matter Further Consider
alton Following Protest
From Birmingham

Montgomery, August 30.-(SpeciaL)
Action has been deferred on the To-
cation of a site for the State Training
School for Girls owing to the absence
of majority of the trustees from
Birmingham. An extension of 80 days
also has been obtained on the option
on the Cantelou property near Mont
gomery, which has been offered as "a
site and which up to the present APP
pears to meet the favor of the gov
ernor and most of those in charge of
the school. This Information was
transmitted to the governor in a let
ter he received this morning from
Mrs. Samuel D. Weakley of Birming-
ham, president of the board of trus-
tees of the school. She stated that all
the members of the board were not
now in Birmingham and she thought
it best to wait until full meeting
can be obtained before reaching a de-
cision. The option on the Cantelou
property would expire September 1, but
has been extended until october /.
Governor Henderson said that he
was not in Montgomery Saturday when
Mrs. Weakley and other interested per-
sons inspected the proposed Cantelou
site and that the first official informa-
ton he had on the subject was Mrs.
Weakley's letter today. He stated
also that no delegation from Biz
mingham called on him yesterday in
opposition to a removal of the school
from Jefferson to Montgomery county,
but that he had received letter from
the Birmingham Real Estate exchange
along those lines Senator Thomas
Judge and two other Birmingham Cit
liens who called at the governors Of

LITTLE CHANGE IN
GROWING COTTON
Deterioration in Some Sec
tons and Improvement in
Others Tend to Offset

Washington, August 30-Conditons in
the cotton belt were reviewed today by
the national weather and crop bulletin
covering the week which ended yesterday
as follows:
Although there was some memorable
rainfall in Oklahoma during the week it
was not sufficient to affect cotton, and
this crop deteriorated steadily. 1t was
shedding badly and plants were drying up
in some localities. Cotton was not fruit
ing well in Texas on account of drought
in the western and northern portions, and
boil weevil in central and southern dis
tricts. The crop is very poor in north
western Arkansas, but is good in other
sections of the state except that few new
squares were forming in the central and
sc utheastern portions, due to weevil dam
age.
THE weather conditions were favorable
for the crop in Tennessee, and it con-
tinued to show some improvement in
North Carolina, and the prospect was
improving in South Carolina. 1t was
too dry for cotton which was shedding
the top crop in parts of Georgia, and
there was no decided change in the con-
ditions in Alabama. The plants deterio-
rated in Florida and in most of Missis
sippi except in northwestern counties,
where the weevil damage is small. There
is much shedding in all central, southern
and western districts, and some rust is
reported. The crop is late in eastern
sections. The work of picking and gin
ring progressed we'll under favorable
weather conditions in western, central
and southern districts and the early crop
is ready for picking in the northeastern
section.
Corn is ripening fast in southern
states and is being harvested in Geor-
gia and Oklahoma. In Oklahoma the
crop is being cut for ensilage and fodder
because of great damage to the grain by
dry and hot weather.
Condition of sweet potatoes continued
good, although rain was needed in parts
of Mississippi.
Garden and truck crops were favored
by good weather conditions in most of
the southern states except locally in Mis-
sissippi and in northern Florida, where
rain is needed.
Sugar cane continued promising in the
southern states and in Louisiana it Is
much better developed than usual at this
season. Rain is needed for this crop in
parts Of Mississippi.
Rain is needed in Mississippi and Ok
Ia homa for the best development of pea
nuts, but in other states this crop con-
til,ues in a promising condition.
Tobacco was improved by weather
conditions during the week. Weather
as favorable for harvesting and curing.
Curing was mostly completed in eastern
North Carolina, and the quality of the
crop was improved in Virginia and it
was curing nicely. The crop Is excep-
tiOnally good in Kentucky"

dealing with this vital problem
that enters into the lives of men

of the most truthful and educa-

Briefly, the real story of the
film is this A young man of to-
day is swayed by the same pass

forebears from time immemorial.
He must have his fling" which
does not stop with marriage. Even
after wedlock he still frequents
Bohemian circles and he defers
parenthood until greater prosper
ity shall come. Deferred too long,
an accident to his wife prevents
them from ever becoming parents
and remorse overtakes him.
AS the play progresses, the plot
moves swiftly forward, and the
audience is carried along in a rush
of feeling which becomes concrete
belief in the lessons of the play
The whole drama is pure and
wholesome in sentiment, but the
truth is told in plain words ana

ness that will be understood by

Produced upon lavish scale,
presenting a cast of exceptional
magnitude, the picture will not
fail to please by it's excellent pre-
sentation. The photography IS
worthy of the immensely OF the
subject, and includes some OF the
most advanced ideas now assocl-
ated with motion picture produc-
