ROPER AND TAUSS|G NOT FREE TRADERS
 SAYS UNDERWOOD
Denies Charges Being Made by Republicans Against Members of Tariff
 Commission
By HIGH ". ROBERTS

Washington, March 17.-(Special) )-Sen- ator Underwood denies the charge of re- publicans that Professor Taussig of Harvard, recently named by President Wilson, chairman of the tariff commits sion, is a free trader
 T have read" said the senator, every thing that Professor Taussig has written. He Is not free trader He does not even stand for a tariff for revenue only. He admits that he is protectionist, al- though mild protectionist He does not stand for the kind of protection that re- publicans would have him stand for. He believes that infant industries should be protected as long as they are infant in dustrieS. I consider him a very able man"
 No sooner had the President named the tariff commission than the republi- cans emitted howl. They declared that
 every member save one was demo- crat, and that all of them hold views contrary to those held by protectionists.
 They made the point that Daniel c.
 Roper named a member of the commis-
 sion, was clerk of the ways and means
 committee when Senator Underwood was
 preparing the Underwood tariff bill. They
 proceeded on the theory that Roper was
 as bitter against protection as the former chairman of the ways and means com mittee.
 Roper is very valuable man., said Senator Underwood, because he has in- formation. The charge that he is a free trader is ridiculous On the contrary, his views are more in accord with those of the low protectionist than are my own.'
 Senator Underwood thinks that the commission will be confirmed, although he holds it certain that the republicans will protest on the ground of their con- tention that the commission, as named, does not bear out the "nonpartisan' idea. Republican senators, as a matter of fact, are giving indication that they hoped the President would name commits sion more in accord with their own kidney.

.UN|ONTOWN STRUCK BY SEVERE WIND;
 MUCH DAMAGE DONE
Storm in Early Morning Blows Down Trees and UnrOOfs Buildings-NO
 Loss of Life Reported

Uniontown. March 17.-(Special) This morning about o'clock Union town was visited by one of the worst rain and windstorms in it's history. The wind was nothing short of a cyclone and lasted for about 30 min utes, doing considerable damage to plate glass windows and doors, as well as unroofing three or four large stores. The old Marx building, on the main business street, which is now occupied by the Young Mems Athletic club, was unroofed completely. Large sheets of tin and heavy rafters were blown for 50 feet out into the street. Several hundred yards down the street the two stores owned by s. T. Whit field, one a bakers shop and the oth-
 CT a barber shop, were also damaged. The rear of these two buildings were also completely blown away. The tele- phone wires as well as the electric wires were also blown down and work men have been busy all day repairing them. Trees were blown down in all parts of the city. Several of the dwelling houses were badly damaged There were no lives lost or none hurt which is accounted for only by the storm having hit the city in the early morning.

Skiing Becoming Popular

From American Universities ana the
 White Outdoors by Lawrence Perry
 in the Scribner.
 Lovers of outdoor life who have never
 learned to ski have missed 8 great deal
 It is a fascinating sport and an art as
 we'll A narrow, clean-cut sport-aiWays
 the sign of an accomplished ski-runner-
 lying across the white flank of a hill is
 a beautiful thing to behold, and so are
 the "herring bone'' tracks which knight
 of the ski will record on the flawless snow
 as evidence of his skill
 Once the writer, who had not mastered
 the art, undertook to follow ski-runner
 through the snows of a northern forest on snow shoes. The journey of several miles was for the most part solitary one; the man on skis would glide along companion ably on the level or upgrade, but when a hill or the slightest depression appeared ha would wave his hand in gesture oi 1 farewell and disappear.
 It is really a modern sport, at least l modern so far as popularity goes. Ills toricaliy, however, skiing dates back some 14OG years Procopius-sixth century-re fers to it, and in the thirteenth century Saxo Grammatical. The inhabitants of northern Norway have employed the ski time out of mind. It was not, however, until the late seventies that peasants from Telemark came to a winter meet held near Christiania and electrified observers with their proficiency on skis. All of Norway went in for the sport with enthusiasm, but it was a long time before 1t spread to other lands. Now there are ski clubs throughout the world where winters are characterized by snow and ice. The ski is used as a practical means of locomotion as well as for sport. Dwell CTS of northern mountain districts find it essential in the closed months, but they use it as they use shoes and stockings, with no thought of carrying it beyond a merely utilitarian purpose. In the realm of sport skiing has attained it's great de- velopment as an art, and ornate furbish- ings, such as the Telemark and Chris tiana swings and other methods of turn ing or stopping forward progress, the recording of various sorts of tracks. and ski -joring and ski-skating and ski-jump- ing have been applied in the course of the years

Salesman Lost His Job

Tn the Woman's Home Companion . woman tells of her struggle to free herself and her husband from debts which cost her husband his position in the following manner:
 "The old man-the general manager of Jim's cOmpany--was lzindhearted old despot. He was really fond of Jim. but he was irascible in the ex- treme, subject to sudden outbursts ot temper and guilty often of hasty de cisions which he afterwards came to regret. Yet he was proud and having once made his decision he never changed And the old man was old- fashioned. Like my father. he had no use for debt

 "Jim read the letter. It was from one of our, creditors asking the old mans help in collecting an account which we had successfully lodged for more than year. It was a pathetic sort of letter. can understand now just how the old man felt. and think have fully forgiven him for what he did. But at that time 1t seemed pitiless and terribly unfair
 "T've had that letter on my desk about two weeks. she- exclaimed. "Meahtime have been looking you up. I find.

FAVOR MILITARY TRAINING

Col Malcolm Crump of Bowling Green, Ky, field secretary of the University Training Military league, was in Anniston yesterday in the interests of compulsory training. He was class mate of O. M. Reynolds postmaster, and is very close friend of Sydney Underwood. That the idea of compulsory military training is gaining headway among the thinking peo- pie, may be adduced by the number of business and professional men who have signed a petition asking Congress to pass compulsory training law.

SIGNIFICANCE OF ACT

In the destruction of the Algonquin, together with it's cargo, valued at 3D. 900, the Germans served notice on the United States that from it's position it would not budge one dot The vessel, explained and manned by Americans, fly ing the American flag, and loaded only with foodstuffs, was fired upon and sunk without warning In the manner of the sinking the Germans patiently displayed their contempt for the United States They hauled down the flag and retained 1t. They cruelty left the Americans in open boats to buffet the waves as best they could.
 Amb bassador Gerard, in this connection, brought other significant news. He in formed Secretary of State Lansing that Germany expects war with the United States. That war cannot be avoided is generally admitted.
 But President Wilson would have Ger many not only to strike the first blow, which Germany has done but also to de- clare war. Another week will possibly tell the story.
