If Baby Cries for Food
Just Show Him a Jitney

Appetite for food and drink in a

Philosophical Inquiry at the Public
Library yesterday afternoon, in an

claim before the peace conference
squarely against an economic boycott
on Germany. For a year the Presi-
dent has had group of college pro-
fessors working on economic questions
that shall arise after the war. And
these professors will scent a German
boycott a decade off in any innocent
phrase that may be proposed by the
imperialist of any nation at the con-
ference. The President has the col
lege professors low esteem of the
business man. So the President may
be depended upon to stand for nc
peace terms that will merely "help
business. That program also will Of

surely will meet with the approval OF

Socialists of an international frame OF

The League of Nations.
Third.-We now come to the league
of nations. That must first of all
be democratic. And the President
never has indicated that he believed
a form of government determined
democracy in a nation. A demo-
cratic nation according to the Will
sonian formula is a free nation.
a nation in which live no coerced
populations. From the President s
recent public utterances-and these
are emphasized by his reiterated pri-
vate eXpressions-the American stand
for a league Of nations will be or
ganiZed not to enforce peace but
to prevent war. The Wilson idea is
millenial, not military. He will stand
for supervised elections in self-de-
termination among the weaker peo-
ple-the buffer state people. the ex-
plotted and intrigued smaller nations
and no one about the President
would be surprised to see him drop
Ireland like a monkey wrench into
the machinery of the conference If it
seems to lack other diversion. and
again we find a policy which would
soil the waters of the worlds Junker-
dom and give aid and comfort to
their adversaries.
Mr. Wilson's Method.
This program OF Mr. Wilson'S will
not be popular with the ENJOYS of
the allies at the peace conference
No one knows this better than the
President. Yet he believes that it
is a program that will find great
favor among the war-worried masses
of Europe. He is aiming at them
And because be is aiming at them
he went to Europe. For them. pro-
test his friends, the transcontinentaI
European circus parade; for them the
pomp and circumstance of an Ameri-
can President leaving his country
breaking all precedents and receiving
such homage from the nobility of Eu-
rope as no king or conqueror ever
dared to hope for. And still his
friends protest that this triumph is
not to fiatter the Presidents vanity
but to advertise his goods. Thus they
reason: Back of the tenures of the
two most powerful enemies of this
program. Lloyd George and Clemen-
ceau. are two great socialist con-
stituencies; in Italy also is an over
whelming socialist constituency; and
the Belgian government was domi-
mated by the socialist five years ago
and the government may be again
socialistic when it begins to function.

Bob Lees president of the Overland Motor Car company of Birmingham. in- spired by a desire to do his share of the fighting for right and humanity, has "signed up" Notwithstanding the fact that he leaves wife and two children, Mir Lees stated that he thought that his country needed men to fight the Hun hordes and so he enlisted to do his bit"
 Many of MT. Lees friends knew he twas contemplating entering the army,
 but thought he would be deterred be- cause of his wife and children. This week, however, MT. Lees resigned from
 the head of the Overland Motor Car
 company and will leave at once for army service. The recent organization of the motor transport corps encour- laged his quick decision.
 MT. Lees came to Birmingham IS months ago and made a splendid suc- cess in the motor car business He also was one of the first organizers of the
 Birmingham Motor Sales association, and did active work in the Chamber of Commerce. MT. and Mrs. Lees and two children will leave the latter part of this week for their former home in Buffalo, where Mrs. Lees will reside until MT. Lees returns. They regret leaving Birmingham, as they have just llearned to love it as their home, but MT. Lees says that he will return to
 Birmingham, God willing, when he is through fighting for Uncle Sam.

Alleged Slayer Surrenders

Anniston, October S.-(Special. )-Sher-
 man Hart, alleged slayer of Lon O'Bry-
 ant, special deputy sheriff at Piedmont,
 surrendered to Deputy, Iioyle at Pied-
 mont Monday night, and now occupies
 a cell at the county jail along with John
 Lapier. who shot and killed his half
 brother Luke Smith, at Jacksonville,
 the same day.
 The first killing. which occurred in
 Jacksonville, does not seem to bother the
 man charged with the crime. Lapie1
 was visited at the county jail Tuesday
 by a newspaper correspondent, and he
 stopped a game of checkers long enough
 to say that he had no statements to
 make concerning the killing of his half
 brother.
 Lapier surrendered to the authorities at Jacksonville immediately after he fired the shot which killed his half brother, and he was turned over to the sheriff. It is charged that Smith was drunk and disorderly at the home of La pier, and that the. killing occurred be- cause the dead man refused to leave the premises. Lapier is about 40 years or age and his half brother was few years younger.
 sherman Hart, who disappeared fol- lowing the shot which killed the special l deputy sheriff, surrendered to special deputy sheriff at Piedmont after re-
 maining at large "A hours. He will make | plea of self defense when arraigned | for trial
 | Frank Shell, who is held as witness | in the O'Bryant case, and Dallas Mayo, | a material witness in the John Lapier case, are also held at the county jail without bond. They occupy a cell down. | stairs, while the alleged slayers are in | the big wage on the second floor.

NUMEROUS PRISONERS TAKEN

London. october S.-G;15 p. m.)-At o'clock this evening the position be- tween Cambrai and St Quentin was that the French, starting from Rouv- roy. had captured the hills to the eastward and the villages of Essigny and Fontaine.
 The Anglo-American line was Boureguard Brancourt. through Pre- mont, Serain and Malincourt and wesc of Malincourt; up by Esnes and La Targelte and Niergies to the old line south of Cambrai.
 The advance, roughly speaking, was on a front of 21 miles and the advance was to an average depth Of two miles and maximum depth of three miles.
 Weaker resistance than usual was met at the center, but the enemy south of Cambrai brought up two fresh di- visions and counter attacked heavlly. These attacks were repulsed and all lost ground was regained.
 The prisoners taken were numerous.
 General Gouraud attacked from Machault, north of St. Etienne, on a front of from four to five miles, and advanced to a depth of two miles. cap turing numerous strategic points.
 On the heights of the Mouse east of the river the Franco-American forces attacked on a front of seven miles and advanced for more than two miles. They are now nearly on the line from which the enemy attacked in Febru- ary, 1916,
 There has also been slight advance by the allies north of the Scarpe river.

NEGROES OF STATE
 ARE BUYING BONDS
Between States Is Causing Much Activity in
 Sales, States Leader

According to Walter S. Buchanan, pres ident of the State Agricultural and Me chanical College for Negroes at Normal, who is just in from New Orleans, where he addressed 16,O0O people at LaFayette Square Saturday night, the negroes of Louisiana are endeavoring to beat the negroes of Alabama in the present Lib erty Loan drive.
 It appears that the negroes of Ala bama have made quite reputation in previous loan campaigns and that spir- it of rivalry is springing up. Buchanan states that -sone negro hy the name of Range living just above Shreveport, bought Sl00,00o worth of bonds the other day and that several companies in the state of Louisiana are buying from $ooOo to $10,000 worth of bonds
 On account of the spread of Spanlsn influenza in the neighborhood of ms school. Buchanan was forced to cancer his Liberty Loan campaigns in the southern part of the state, where the negroes are buying very lively. In Mollt- gomery he saw two checks from coiorea men for SlO00 each in payment for bonds. Dr. w. F. Watkins paid cash tor Slooo and G. F. Newstell cash for another
 Buchanan is urging laborers to buy bonds on the installment plan as sale and profitable investment. In north Ala bama Prof P. c. Parks of the Asrlcul- tural and Mechanical college at NormaL' las organized every county Tn the Eistin district and a campaign is on for SlVV'oVo.
 It might be interesting for Buchanah to know that the negroes of Birmingham are buying bonds and several have bought 5000 worth and paid cash,
