DISCUSS SHORTAGE
 OF FOOD SUPPLY
Kiwanis Club Indorses Plan for Uni v versal Military Service

Unless theS United States can raise the food to feed. the allies and herself intense suffering will follow and Ger many may eventually win the world war.
 The above was the declaration of w. c. Bonham president of the Kiwanis club at the weekly luncheon ,yester day at the Southern club. large and enthusiastic gathering of the tribe of Kiwanis at once pledged themselves to cooperate in the work of enlighten- ing the farmers of the state to the necessity of planting food crops. A. sum of $34 was subscribed by tho members present, and the entire mem. bership will be invited to contribute to the farm fund by Secretary TramT mell. It was stated by President Bon ham that itswas intended by the coni- mittee in charge of the farm fund to raise $5000 in Birmingham alone, and that the money subscribed was to be expended under the direction of Mrs. Mathis who would tour the rural dis tricts of the state.
 NO time is to be lost,' said Presi- dent Bonham "The crops must De planted now or someone will starve next fall. We cannot whip the Ger mans on empty stomachs.'
 J. s. Martin of the Progressive Farmer replied to President Bonham by asserting that the farmers could take care of themselves. that it was the city people who should w.orts about food Al
 "This is the southern farmers hour. said MT. Martin. "he is getting fancy prices for everything he is raising. and at 21 cents a pound he is going tc raise cotton. It is the city people that should worry about food. Let all plant their gardens"
 'It will take more gardens to make up for the $110,000,000 spent in buying food from other states" said Presi- dent Bonham." so we had better open our eyes to the real situation" Following this discussion the Xii wanis club went on record in favor of universal service. The following resolution was adopted and tele- graphed to President Woodrow Wi,- son and Representative Hugh Dent, chairman of the committee on military affairs:
 "The Kiwanis club of Birming gham. representing the young, progressive business men of this section. heartily indorse, approve and commend your attitude toward selectve conscrip- tion They believe that this is the most equitable and just method of properly placing the responsibility on all citi- zens alike As citizens of Alabama we are forwarding copy of this telegram to Chairman Dent of the House mili- tary committee and are urging him 10 fully cooperate with you.

Montgomery, April n.-(Special)-An appeal has been issued by friends of Ala bama men now serving on police duty throughout the state for the dropping off of papers and magazines to those who stand throughout the day and night at
 the railroad bridges and crossings of the
 state Many of the men are far re- moved from the towns and cannot obtain
 the papers each day.
 T passed by bridge on the train this
 week and saw a squad of soldiers, said
 D. w. Long, passenger agent of the
 Louisville and Nashville railroad. They
 had nothing to do, only remain on guard
 at the bridge. Every person who has a
 paper on the train and has finished read
 ing it should give it to trainman who
 will gladly throw it off to the first squad
 of soldiers he sees. It will mean much
 to the soldiers who may be away from
 town for several days, and it will mean no loss to the one who purchased the paper
 About 100 citizens of Montgomery have signed an agreement to report at Van diver park for training by regular army officers who rendered their services for the instruction of civilians immediately after the United States declared war on Germany Lists have been placed in the city and when others are added the of ficers will request the civilians to report for organization and instructions. It is pl opposed to teach the applicants the pri- mary principles in order that they may be better able to receive instructions ,when called into active servIce.
 Instructions received by the army re- cruiting station Wednesday for the ac- l ceptance of negroes for cavalry and in- | fantry will mean that more than 250 ne groes from the Montgomery district will i enter the army at once. The recruiting station in recent weeks has received the
 names of 250 negroes who could not be accepted because there were no vacancies
 in colored regiments. The new order in dicates that further negro regiments will be organized.
 1 MAY CALL ARTILLERY l The general belief is that Batteries A and c, Alabama National Guard of Bir- mingham, will be called back into service l at once The batteries of other states 1 have been ordered mustered in again.

 KEYNOTE
 pr. M. w Swartz. president of the women's College of Alabama. sounded the keynote when he declared that this country could not carry on a kid glove war when it's adversaries were equipped with heavy buckskin fighting gloves and could not maintain its declaration of war without equipping itself to go to the fighting front and do nations part He appealed to the people of Alabama to let Congress know at once that they do not approve of any restrictions upon the PfeSlQenL, that they are Ieduy to move to France if the call comes.
 An effort has been made to prevent the President from sending troops to France without the specific direction of Congress" said Dr Swartz. T do not doubt that a bill carrying this effect will be offered in Congress this week. The people should advise their congressman now that they do not think any restric- tions should be placed upon their Pres- f apt ba heliaVaG Shol1l6 go to France he should receive the sup port of the nation. Our navy will do its part and on its mission will go the pride of every American. Why should we think our army should not do it's part we cannot do less than the most and cannot do less than the best and the most and the best will be the sending of an army to France if needs be-" WAR OF DEFENSE
 Dr. Swartz declared that America was conscious of the fact that the war was not of offense and could send an army abroad with the knowledge that it was defending liberty and America. He said he for many months has resented the aggressions of Germany and was proud the time had come when he could speak out to his fellow Americans and urge them to resist

Electric Lights Out
 For Very Short Time


 Electric lights went out sudden- Iy and all street cars in Birming- ham stopped last night at 1OnG o'clock.
 Everybody fs naturally a little nervous. and 'inquiries flew thick and fast. But the darl<ness was caused by trouble with one of the Aigh tension cables at the central distributing plant on Powell ave- nue. Lights came back on in four minutes and car service was again normal at, 1O:25. nine minutes after the accident.
 It wal explained at the plant that cable trouble of this character was liable to develop at any time on the high tension circuits and that plans were always made be- forehand to provide for just such emergencies- 50 that service could be speedily resumed.
