Alabama Must Prove Five
 Facts in Order to Secure
 Location of ArmOr Plant
(Continued from Page onel

(COntinued from Page Onel teously endowed with phosphorus.
 The Alabamians, while made aware as a result of their experience that the south will have to Ego some" to elim. mate a more so1rdfy republican com munity as an applicant for the plant were pleased in that they acquired in formation which when transferred will fortify home committees in their eff forts to open the eyes of the visitors They learned that Alabama will have to convince the committee.
 ITEMS TO BE PROVED
 Q) That Alabama ore can be dephos- phorized as cheaply as Core in other sections of the country.
 @ That gas and coal and other fuel agencies can be acquired in Alabama as as cheaply as elsewhere
 (3) That the phosphorized refuse from Alabama ore can be disposed of for bi-products as profitably as de- phosphorized refuse of other ores
 (D That freight rates and labor con- ditions offered by Alabama are as at tractive as in certain republican cen ters.
 (5) That Alabama's s inability to pro- duce vanadium is immaterial to the profitable operation of the government plant.
 NOT DISCOURAGED
 Senator Underwood following the meet ing, announced that he is not discour- aged. Mr. Oliver is glad that the com mittee made it plain just what Alabama must prove. Neither offered opinion to the effect that certain iron and steel cor porations of the east are endeavoring to prevent the south acquiring the plant. They both are apparently gratified that despite Commander Clark's obvious con viction that the south is unavailable, the committee made it plain that it would re- main steadfast in it's purpose to visit Ala bama cities.
 UNDERWOOD ARGUES
 Senator Underwood during the hour spent with the commttee presented argu- ment to dislodge it's apparently precon- ceived opinion. He explained that while Alabama ore does contain phosphorus, that handicap was easily removed as a result of the duplex process of steel mak- ing. He stated that all armor making companies use the duplex system as against the Bessemer. He added, further that ore containing equally as much phosphorus as Alabama ore furnished plate for German ships and barrels for German guns, the best, he stated, in the world. He guaranteed to the committee that the government could procure in Ala bama coal as cheaply as anywhere else in the world and that an abundance of cheap and docile labor was ever at hand. He pointedly declared that while Ala bama pig was produced cheaper than any other American pig, it's grade was not in- fnrinr tr h hie, J l.l that the Carnegie Steel company had

leave no doubt that further exchanges at this time will not be welcomed; if not, the reply is expected to leave the door open for additional correspondence.
 The meeting of the allied premiers in Rome today was regarded here as of great importance, because the entente governments were expected to take the opportunity to discuss their whole funda- mental attitude towards peace and par ticularly Americas part in securing peace. The decision reached is expected here to be final so long as the military situation remains unchanged.
 Whether the entente reply to the Amer ican note will be forwarded to the cen tral powers is an open question still. It is said such action would be entirely per missble automatically. The reply is ex- pected by the end of next week, re- ports to both the state department and the allied embassies being indefinite as to the exact time, but indicating it's imrni- nence.
 There has been no indication whether

 MT. Harrison, democrat. suggested that any leak" came from the government department, and insisted the leak was through representatives of the Wall Street Journal and Financial America. He related how Secretary Lansing, con- ferring with newspaper correspondents, on December 20, had told them, in conf- dence that note to be published later had been sent to Europe. and that the majority had respected the confidence.
 REPORTERS ACCUSED
 ''The other newspapermen kept faith ' he said, but it appears that the repre- sentatives of the Wall Street Journal and Financial America did not, and it went out over the ticker and the market broke.9

CHIPPERFIELD OBJECTS

MT. Chipperfield objected to this line of questioning.
 Representative Wood is not the author of the charges under inquiry here" said Chipperfield, and his motives cannot be impugned, I think we are losing sight of the fact that these scandalous charges were made by Thomas w. Lawson of Boston, and it is my understanding that Mir. Lawson was the chief beneficiary of this falling market. His transactions, I am told aggregated $3O0O00 on this market. I think that Representative Wood would have been derelict in his duty if he had not brought this matter to the attention of the House. Wood is not the father of these charges. If anyb ody is,

HARRISON SUSTAINED


 Representative Harrison replied that Woods first resolution was introduced before Lawson had made any statement The committee by a party vote sus- tained decision of Chairman Henry that Harrison's line of questioning was proper.
 Wood explained that he had questioned several congressman, and had been in formed that there was a stock broker in New York named "A. Curtis"
 Harrison declared that in his opinion, MT. Wood should have made further in- quiry, and stated that the identity of Curtis had not yet been disclosed.
 "The committee had been led to be- lieve," said Harrison, that Represen- tative Wood had information tending to show that some high official of the gov ernment had leaked. His first resolu- ton was introduced before he ever heard of Curts.'
 MT. Wood stated that his second reso- lution was introduced before he ever heard of Curtis.' MT. Wood stated that his second reso- lution was entirely separated from tho first one, based on new information and the statements made by Thomas w. Law son.
 SUN HAD TIP"
 Representative Gardner told the com mittee that on December 20 the New York Evening Sun reported rumors and hints of the sending of a peace note say ing:
 The Washington advices were bearish these saying that President Wilson may address foreign powers on the peace pro- posals.'
 Where did the Sun get this advance information?" asked MT. Gardner T think that I see indications of leak. But the absolutely definite visible watermark of leak is contained in the ticker record of Dow Jones & Co. HOW MARKET FLUCTUATED The beginning of the downward ten dency in the stock market is first appar- ent between 12:45 and :45 of December | l9. United States Steel, which opened at $1.1214 and rose as high as 1161a, got as low as 109s4 and closed at 112. On December 1 20, opening at 112, it continued its down. ward course, closing at 1O2. Then came l the publication of the note. | "On December 21 it opened at 1041a, showed an upward tendency until almost noon, then fell, touching it's lowest point | at 1001s and closing at 101. l My counsel will present to you a com 1 plete comparison of the course of prices on the New York stock exchange side by | side with statement of the news, and rumors from Washington. This compari- | son presents a chain of events which be- yond peradventure of doubt proves the l existence of a leak
