HUDDLESTON WITH
 BRYAN ASSPEAKER
 AT PEACE MEETING
COmmOner Praises Him Be- cause He Comes From a Steel District Yet
 Stands Against War
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, February civilian Jen- nings Bryan, who when the President severed diplomatic relations with Ger many attempted to array the American people against the chief executive, re- gards Representative Middleton of Ala bama and Representative Bailey of Penn sylvania as among the noblest Americans.
 As reason for his opinion, MT. Bryan public assigned the fact that the two members of Congress stand for peace despite the fact that both of them rep resent districts engaged in the manufac- ture of steel and iron and munitions of war. In their positions, MT. Bryan evil dently regards them as endangering the!r political future for the aske of pacifism
 The three politicians were speakers al a religious meeting. MT. Huddleston was dramatic when he declared that eff we are forced to drink this bitter cup. let us drink it bravely. but if there Is a possibility of avoiding it, let us not be too proud to shove it aside. Neverthe- less the remarks of MT. Bryan were re- garded as the most important, for he had just formally called on the American peo- pie to repudiate the course which Presi- lent Wilson had pursued He praised the President, but with that variety of praise

When Girl Loves,H the offering at the Bijou this week, proved particularly pleasing to the large audience last night and was given good reception. It is a western comedy drama with plenty of action and abounding with clean. whole some comedy. It is a play for the home and will appeal to all classes, for. while melodramatic at times, and with some of the climaxes intense, the comedy sit nations brought roars of laughter. Miss Una Carpenter, in the leading role, Ethel Banks was very charming, and gave an excellent portrayal of the part, while every member of the cast was particu- larly well chosen. The play tells the story of one girls love In such an at- tractiye manner that it held the audience interested until the fall of the final cur tain and left them with pleasant mem- ories of the pleasing little three-act play.

"PARDNERs'' Ar TRIANoN.

Al 1hlANON. Charlotte Walker. MutuaPs emotional actress, is at the Trianon today in "Pard-
 ners," picture dramatization of Rex
 Beach story.
 "Pardners' is a gripping tale of Alas
 ka, replete with thrilling adventures and
 realistic scenes
 Justus Morrow is an unsophisticated young Englishman and displeases his proud and naughty family by marrying
 an actress. He goes to the Klondike and attempts to get gold out of Caribou creek. But there is no pay dirt in Cari-
 bou creek and Justus hikes over to Ram part City and things begin to happen.
 He cleans up a tough gambling house and wins the friendship of Big Bnl' Joyce. And pretty soon a young fellow comes along with a camera on his shoul- der and begins to take pictures. He shoots good many views of the belles of the dance halls doing the hula-hula, or whatever the favorite Alaskan dance Is, in more or less abandon. He has a grudge against our hero and substitutes his head on pictures of men dancing with
 camp women and otherwise disportIng
 themselves
 These pictures later appear in a San Francisco paper and come under the gaze
 of Mrs. Justus Morrow, who is terribly
 put out" and loses all patience with
 Justus. But just as the judge is prepar-
 ing to issue the decree of divorce, Jus

 Die Post thinks that Americas ac- tive participation in the war can hardly change the situation and that the joining of that country in the hos tjlities can hardly bring greater help to the entente allies than has already been given by munitions and loans.
 REFUSE TO SEE FACTS
 The Boersen Zeitung sees in President Wilson's action refusal to recognize the situation of compulsion in which Ger many has been placed by her enemies will to destroy her, and adds:
 He stubbornly adheres to the loc- trines of submarine warfare which he adopted at the outset and has frustrated all the efforts of our government to maintain good relations despite the sub marine warfare"
 The Vorwaerts says that both sides should drop the talk about morality, and adds: "The Americans have it easy in talking about the sacred laws of human ity which the Germans are treading under foot. They are not threatened in their existence; they know nothing of the pleasures of life in trenches, and when they want bread, butter, bacon, cheese, milk and eggs they go ito the next sh"2 and buy what they want. Under such circumstances it is easy to exalt the laws of humanity. Americans have as little right to make moral representations to us as a portly citizen has the right to judge a poor devil who comes into con- flict with the laws through dire distress"

consequent bringing of small and di- versified industries to Birmingham.
 In introducing the resolutions

 thorized to appoint the special
 committee to work for lower
 freight rates and cheaper rates on
 steel. MT. White said, "As long as
 this organization sits still and per-
 mits such conditions to exist, just
 so long will we be intellectual and
 dead.
 President Weatherly announced that he would take as much time as was necessary in naming the committees to assure the association getting the most suitable men on the committees and the ones best fitted to handle the situ- ation.
 SECRETARY INTRODUCED The newly elected general secretary, T. l.. Cannon, was introduced by John E. Shelby, chairman of the nominating committee that offered MT. Cannon's name to the board of directors for elec- ton.
 He was introduced as a man Of great success in civic work and one whose whole-hearted interests are in Birming- ham.
 MT. Cannon pledged his faith in Bir- mingham and said he was glad to have a hand in the building of a greater Birmingham" He urged the people of the association to stand behind him in his efforts. declaring that no one man can build city and no one man can form plans to build 8 city.
 He said the first step to be taken was to increase the membership of the asso- citation into the thousands.

 Unless we get together, unless we are determined to remove the evils that ex- ist, this association is a mistake.
 THE NITRATE PLANT
 'If there was any other association in Birmingham alive to the interests of the city tomorrow's sun would not rise until committee had been sent to Washing ton to show the government that there is only one place in the United States where nitrate plant can be built in less than five years and that is on the Warrior river,' he said. President Weatherly urged that the as- sociaton wants those persons in the as- sociation who have never been represent ed before.
 He declared that the association would not be satisfied with a membership of less than 10000.
 There is something the matter with Birmingham said Mr. Weatherly. "and believe I know what it is. We are growing; and wherever we have turned for progress we have found sobstructions. There are Instructions of law, of munich pal government and on the part of great interests who have made the town and who think they own it. The purpose of this organization is to find a way to break through these Instructions, way for our growing desires" T. P. Patterson joined the association, and made a short talk, in which he de-

sDo you know that the price of steel in Birmin gham may be sold as eheapls in Pittsburg plus the freight from Pfttsburg to Birmingham. And do you know that iron products manufactured in Birmingha mmay be sold as cheapiy sn Chattanooga and other cities ms here."
 The above pertinent questions asked by Senator Frank S. White formed the opening wedge for the introduction of resolutions at the meeting of the Bir- mingham Civic association last night calling for the appointment of com rnittee of five to go to the highest possible authority and exert every eff fort to get steel sold as cheaply in Birmingham as in other cities.
 The resolutions were adopted and the committee will be appointed by President James weatherly simultan- eously with a committee of three to go before the public service commits SlOn ana aSk TOT eQulIdpe freight ldtOS from Birmingham to points on the Warrior river.
 The resolutions were introduced by Senator White following an enthu- siastic talk in which he denounced the steel trust.

 bought heavily today of the better
 known war brides' and related
 issues listed on the stock exchange.
 The inquiry extended to the "curb'

 munitions and ordnance shares have
 broader and more general scope. On
 the other exchanges where the com-
 modities are dealt in, the trend of
 prices was uncertain.
 In the stock market the rise was SC varia ble as to indicate indecision respect ing the speculative possibilities of former favorites. Some issues prominent in the feverish trading of the last two years made only small gains and a few others of the same class were under pressure.
 For the most part, the buying was of a confident character and seemed to have the support of foremost banking inter- ests. Money rates were comparatively easy.
 The rise might have been convincing had it been shared in greater degree by rails, which were backward, when not irregular. A new low record for New Haven, which fell to 39, served as a par tial drawback in that quarter. Further adverse features were presented by the new low records established by interna- tiopal bonds issued by Britain and France.

It is generally assumed by the newspapers that the United States will make an early declaration of war against Germany, for they say the submarine campaign can hardly be prosecuted without the loss of some American lives.
 While the entrance of the United States into the ranks of Germany's enemies would be highly regrettable, the newspapers say the country must meet this danger as the lesser of two evils. The danger of the United States as war factor is treated as compara- lively unimportant, owing to the re- moteness of the area of war and the time that would be required to create an army. The opinion is evinced in some quarters that the submarines will decide the war before the United States can take an active hand.
 GERMANY IS UNITED
 The Tagliche Rundschau says:
 President Wilson has determined under all circumstances to preserve Englands strong sea power, perhaps chiefly because he wants to win Eng land as an ally against Japan, which has begun to set in motion 400. 100000 Chinese"
 The paper repe1s President Wilson's effort to distinguish between the Ger man people and government and says:

 Edith Storey and Antonio Mereno in ''Money Magic" showing at the Rialto today, are seen in splendidly acted and staged picture play.

These two young persons, thrown by circum- stances into each others society and having a common burden and sym pathy, find themselves ever drifting to- ward dangerous ground.
