PLANNING DETAILS OF SCOUTING TRIP OVER BANKHEAD HIGHWAY
Trip to Be Delayed Several Weeks Because Farmers Are Behind
 With Their Crops

The details of the start for the scouting party which will locate the route for the Bankhead national high way, are being worked out rapidly by the executive officers of the Bank head Highway association and the plans for the trip from Atlanta to Bir mingham and on to Memphis will soon be made public.
 The resolution passed at the recent convention in Birmingham was to the effect that the party should start within 30 days from the adjournment of the convention. but on account of information having been received that the farmers are so busy with their crops and the poor condition of the roads between Birmingham and Mem phis. it is now believed that it will take Aat least 50 days from the time of the convention to get the party on it's way.
 Secretary J. A. Rountree has writ ten the various county and city branches of the Bankhead Highway associations to use due diligence in getting roads into condition at the earliest possible moment and to state when they will be ready to start on the scouting trip.
 The scouting party is to report to President T. H. Plowman and to the board of directors. If an agreement is not reached then a special meeting of the highway association will be called to settle the matter.

BARNETT SPEAKS TO
 EFFICIENCY CLASS

Frank Willis Barnett addressed the class in efficiency at the Young Men s Christian association night school last night on the subject Efficiency in a Modern Newspaper Plant" Within the past several years there has been great increase of interest in journalism and newspaper work in Birmingham, and no small amount of the credit is given to the school of journalism at Howard college, which was among the first in the south. Added impetus has been given the sub ject recently by the inauguration Of similar school at Birmingham college.
 The efficiency course at the night school has proved to be one or the most valuable of all and has attracted the interest of many men. Leaders in all branches of business and professional life are called upon from time to time to ad- dress the classes.

She Will Never Stop Fight ing Until Rightful Posses
 siOns Are Restored
EUROPE SHOULD SEE
 STARS AND STRIPES
These Are Features of Speech of Noted Frenchman in New York. JOffre Places Wreath on
 Grants Tomb

New York, May 10-Three dramatic events which will become historic in the annals of New York marked the activities of the French war mission here today. In their chronological order they were:
 The address of Rene Viviani, vice presi- dent of the council of ministers and head of the mission, at luncheon of the Mer- chants association, when he declared France never would cease fighting until Alsace and Lorraine were restored to her, and when he proclaimed that the Stars and Stripes never would attain their full significance until they fltated from the trenches of Europe.
 The placing by Marshal Joffre of a wreath upon the sarcophagus of General Grant.
 The reception of the French residents of the city at the public library to- night, when Joffre, viviani and their col leagues greeted their compatriots includ- ing several hundred bluejackets from French warships.
 The spectacle which appealed most to the popular imagination was that en- acted at Grants tomb.
 Here, if ever in the nations great, bust iiii6 biOtiOPOiSs olltUC6 Wdo iilOlC U ulS expressive than words. Here also was a tribute of one of the worlds great heroes to the memory of another
 The thousands who had paused in their daily duties to honor the victor of the Marne and his colleagues, apparently realized the significance of the moment Where there had been a veritable canopy of small flags fluttering above them, now were barred hejads.
 Passing to the dimly lighted tomb, Marshal Joffre placed upon the sarcoph- agus an evergreen wreath with the tri- color entwining 1t. Then standing erect he saluted, while the hundred or more others who had been permitted to enter the tomb looked on, heads uncovered, from the balustrade above.
 Then followed a review of the Seventh regiment, New York National Guard, in front of the tomb, after which the yisi- tors were taken through Riverside drive to the Joan of Arc statue, where brief stop was made. All along the route, eX- tending several miles, were great throngs of men, women and children, cheering the city's guests. At the Joan of Arc statue a delegation from the Daughters of the American Revolution presented Marshal Joffre with 8 cneck for 2s.000 francs to be used at his discretion for charitable purposes.
 A wreath of white laurel was handed to Marshal Joffre and he placed it rev. erently at the base of the statue.

an effort would be made on the floor to have the Senate insist on the re- tention of this feature. The general expectation, however. is that the con- ference decision will prevail.
 The prohibition provision as agreed to excludes liquor. beer and wines from any military post but does not forbid selling or giving these pever- ages to soldiers except when in uni- form
 The conferees put into the bill ar amendment giving the President power to organize and equip for each in- fantry and cavalry brigade three ma chine companies and for each division of these services four machine gun companies in addition to those coni- prised in each organization of these units. He also was given authority to organize one armored motor car ma- chine company for each division.
 Exemptions from the selective dratt were left virtually as originally sug- gested by the general staff. Those ab- solutely exempt include officers of the United States and any state or ter ritory; ministers. students of recog- nized divinity or theological schools and members of ''any well recognized religious sect or organization at pres ent organized' whose "existing creed' forbids participation In war. The last class are not exempt from noncombat- or
