The history OF the Congress can be
told in comparatively few and simple
words. for It was the conception of an
idea" and the creation OF an organize
ton based upon this simple belief. In
1908 call was issued 10 the men OF tn
South to assemble in Chattanooga for
an exchange OF ideas and a general dis
cussion OF methods for increasing their
efficiency. This was the first meeting
Of It's kind in the South, but IL results ed
merctsI Congress. From that day to
this the organization has steadily ex-
banded IN both membership influence
and usefulness, an evidence of which is
the fact that the most prominent citizens
Of the great city of New York antici-
pate with profound pleasure it's eorltng
Ninth Annual Convention, which Is
fraught with great ana lasting good to
not only the Southern but the Northern

ALBANIA is NOW

Rome, June 4, via Paris, June g.
A semi official statement in respect
to the proclamation of the unity and
independence of Albania by Italy says
that this step is taken in realization
Of the principle of nationality, (which
is one of the objects of the Allies in
the war"
The statement continues:
Albania, through Italian inf1u-
ences, will become an element of de-
velopment in the Balkans, while its
proximity to Italy and. the protection
Or the latter guarantee to that region
tranquil existence no more threat
ened by Austria or other peoples.
Since the cessation OF Ottoman
dominion Italy aimed to reconstruct
Albania, while Austria used Albania
as mean to exercise dominion
through the Balkans She promised
a decefving autonomy, which, If ac-
cepted would soon put the country
under the Austrian yoke"
This Is the first intimation received
here of the proclamation of Albania s
Independence by Italy. On March
10 the official announcement was
made In London that Austria had is
sued a proclamation to the Albanians
granting the country autonomy under
an Austrian protectorate. The Lon
don statement asserted that the proc
lamation was intended to justify the
levy of Albanians for the Austrian
army. After the occupation Of Ser
bia and Montenegro by the Central
powers Austrian troops overran north

southern part OF the country. includ-
