ARGENTINA WANTS
 MORE FREE TRADE
Claims Lowering of Barriers Is Ad- vantage of All South Ameri-
 can Nations

Buenos Aires, October 3l-(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)-Ar- gentina has taken the lead in an effort to persuade the South American repub- licsNto tear down their tariff walls and open themselves to free trade among themselves. arguing that such action would make them commercially inde- pendent of other countries in Europe and North America. This step has been taken in spite of the fact that until now the Argentines principal source of revenue has been it's custom houses.
 To show it's sincerity, the Argentine government has introduced a bill in Con- gress providing for the opening of dip lomatic negotiations with all the neigh boring countries for the adoption of treaties providing for the free exchange of the products of each country con- cerned.
 It is the desire of Argentina to re- move the fiscal barriers which in the rast have estranged the nations of South America and restricted commerce be- tween them, making them dependent on overseas nations.
 A years trial of free trade with Peru has led Argentina to seek similar arr engagements with the other republics. The Peruvian legation in Buenos Aires and the Argentine consulate in Lima have acted as commercial agents for their respective countries with the result that today there is a regular trade of wheat four and cereals to Peru in exchange for cotton rice snd sugar from Peru.

MAJOR WATT GOES
 ID WASHINGTON Presumption Is That Labor for Dam No. 2 Is Cause of Trip

Sheffield, December 1.-(Special) Maj D. A. Watt, engineer in charge Of construction of Dam No. ? at Muscle Shoals, loft Sheffield for Washington last night. Major Watt made no state ment as to the reason for his visit, but it is presumed that it had to do with the labor situation here. Men are needed badly for work on the dam and the work is being retarded by the scarcity of unskilled labor. It is said that the engineers in charge are ganx- ious to proceed with the work of or ganization and that they hope to be ready to get to work in earnest not later than early spring. /
 Some 500 men are employed on, the dam construction and the necessary preliminaries at the present time. Ma terials are being rapidly assembled and everything will be in readiness for real construction work very shortly. It was thought that the men could be taken over for the dam construc- tion as they were released from Nitrate Plant No. 2, but it seems that the de- mand for unskilled labor at Nitrate Plant No. ? is still great There is no shortage of skilled labor in the dis trfct so far as is known, but unskilled labor Is in great demand, and excei- lent wages are being paid

LITTLE TIME LOST WHEN LEGISLATURE
 MEETS FOR WORK
Anti-Amendment Members Will Go No Further Than
 to Register Protest
By WILLIAM L. GoRMLEY

Montgomery. December 1.-(SpeciaD When the legislature convenes in Jan uary anti-prohibition members of both the house and the senate will map out their plans which call for co-operation
 with prohibition members. This IS
 made certain by the statement of lead-
 CTS of the local option faction that no obstacles will be thrown in the path of the numerous bills that are to come up.
 No fight will be made when the two bodies are organized on the openlng day. The plan of the majority leaders
 will be carried out without the usual speech making and strong opposition
 on the part of the minority. Each minority member probably will have inserted on the records his opposition \ to the prohibition amendment, but this will be a mere formality and will take up little time of the, legislative session The constitution permits each legfs- lator to list his objection to certain
 measures, and it is likely each local
 optionist will enter his formal objec- tion. Here is where the so-caiieu states rights question will come ih.
 The plan now is to make Henry F.. MeTTlIJ Ol MdSOH SOuiisS, SPASNN tive from his district, speaker of the house There may be opposition to
 MT. Merritt, but it will not be strong enough to cause any delay in the or ganization.
 <J G. Bedsole, senator from Clarke
 county will be made president pro
 tenn of the senate. Then, according to the present plan. Walter F. Miller, of \ Tuscumbia will be made secretary to the senate and Fred H. Gormley of
 Montgomery, clerk of the house. \ Perfect harmony is promised by both l the prohibitionists and local optionists. II The amendment is said to be scheduled
 for consideration and adoption at the N beginning of the session. This out of | the way, the house and senate can take
 up important legislation which will H assist Governor Kilby in carrying out
 his financial plan during his admin III iStration
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-12-02

Abolish the draft rule in it's present form-or we will cut loose from organ ized baseball" is the ultimatum deliv- cred by dominating faction among the minor leagues.
 And the Bush league" owners are very serious about their threat and every indication is that when the next DOW wow of baseball is brought about the big folks must make the aslSed-for concession from the minors-or organ lzed baseball will cease to exist.
 No one conversant with diamond af- fairs can but agree with the minors tn heir stand that the present rules cov- ering the drafting of players from the minors is totally unfair to the minors.
 Jack Dunn, owner of the Baltimore In -ernationals. explaining the workings of the draft rule, says:
 Under existing conditions the best the minor league owner gets out of the dratt rdle is the worst of it. The minor league owner spends months-and perhaps years of painstaking effort in developing that player so as to make him a league draw ag card. Just as soon as he has ac- omplished his purpose, the big leaguer omes along and buys the player at his wn price-or drafts him. The minor sague owner may want to keep that aayer-nut he has absolutely no voice 2 the matter. If the big leaguer wants i'm the big haguer gets him.
 "Is such a rule fair?
 Let me cite the case of Babe Ruth as ln excellent example of the peculiar and unfair workings of the draft rule.
 Tn 1913 when Ruth was playing with he St. Joseph college team in Balti- nore he impressed me with his remark lble ability and I secured his promise 0 play on my Baltimore team when lis college days were over.
 The 1914 season was Ruth's first year Us a professional baseball player As a member of my Baltimore Orioles he de- eoped into a sensation. Everywhere he Iayed he was great drawing card, and ne entire league profited by it, because ne increased gates all around meant
