the most Germany expects now is a draw. Why she seems so indifferent to this country's entrance into the war causes much interest. Some off, cials have predicted for more than a year that Germany would attempt to force this nation into the conflict at the last moment. first in order that her autocracy might save it's face be- fore the people by surrendering to the whole world. and second, because this country probably would be a gem erous enemy.
 With the United States drawn into the war through no desire of her own, the exact manner of American partic- ipation is uncertain. A war credit of from $ 900, ,000,00 to $5.o00. 100000 IS being discussed. Military participation has not been determined and decis- ions must await actual entrance in the war.
 General alliances with the entente nations are not contemplated The United States plans to maintain its freedom of action just as far as pos sble. In naval and militay sense there will of course be full co-opera- ton, but beyond that, the country will not assume unlimited liability for the allies aims.
 The United States will seek al far as possible to ameliorate the bitterness of the present war and prevent it's enJ- ing from generating future wars.

HIGH TRIBUTE PAID LATE WALKER PERCY
 BY CIVIC CHAMBER
Committee Named to Prepare Resolu- tions on His Death Makes
 Report

The committee of the Chamber of Com meree, appointed to prepare resolutions upon the death of Walker Percy, paid a high tribute to him as an unselfish civic leader. The report follows:
 To the President and Board of Directors
 of the Chamber of Commerce:
 The first object of every civic organi- zation is to aid and direct the patriot ism of it's members to civic usefulness.
 The highest value of the members as members is realized from the persistency and effectiveness of their individual la bors to establish the aims and plans for the public good which have been adopted by the organization.
 This chamber has not held general meeting since the death of Walker Percy, who was one of it's leading members.
 When this chamber in 1910, after weigh ing the expected benefits against the possible dangers attendant cpon the adoption of the commission form of gov ernment for the city of Birmingham, iu lieu of the aldermanic form then in force. decided to indorse the proposed chT nge and lent it's influence to accom- plish it, the late Walker Percy gave more thought and labor toward the actual es- tablishment of the new form of govern ment than any other member of the chamber. He wrote for it in the press; he spoke for it on the platform: he worked for it in conference. And then, after securing the indorsement by the people at the polls. he went 10 Mont gomery as a member of the state egis- lature prepared the bill which accom- plished the change of government and conducted it safely to enactment.
 Such zeal for the duties of high eff izenship will always be pointed to as an example for members of this organ- ga ton.
 Today the Chamber of Commerce of Birmingham is confronted with the duty of leading the citizens and comme rcial interests of Birmingham in forming and carrying out plans for conserving the soundness of our governmental and bust ness institutions through times of pe- culiar peril. And whether we are striv- ing to perform our duty as civic organiza ton or our duty as a business orga niza tion we realize our greatest need to be more members such as Walker Percy was; and we recommend that this chamber a body resolve that it shall emulate his force, his fearlessness and his unflinching devotion of all his tal- ents to accomplish what he felt was for the good of all when any public demand for them arose. Respectfully.
