WHOLESALE GROCERS
 AGAINST PACK FRS

Washington, September 12.-(SpeciaI) The Southern Wholesale Grocers asso- ciation, in letter to Senator Gronna, chairman of the committe on agricul- ture and forestry. declares that even if ISs of 90 witnesses appearing before the committee were in opposition to the Kenyon -kendrick bill regulating, by pro- posed government control, the meat pack CTS of the country, the Southern Whole sale Grocers' association, with 2000 mem- bers in the southern states, favor that bill
 The association does not hesitate to
 npugn the motives of the witnesses who have testified. As there were witnesses from Alabama, and as the grocers' as- sociation is represented by Alabama firms, the situation is interesting to Ala bama. According to the association those who have testified were divided into three classes-paid employees of packers pack CTS subsidized witnesses and witnesses afraid of the packers.
 The chairman is asked to call Mir. Brooks of Swift & Co. and force him to state under oath how much money the packers have paid or promised to pay for travelling expenses, hotel bills and telegrams on account of their devoted witnesses"
 Judge c. E. Thomas of Prattville and Howard Smith of the McQueen-Smith Farming company, were the witnesses in favor of the packers who came to Wash ington from Alabama. Both are well known citizens of the state.

ARMY AND NAVY ORGAN
 FAVORS THE DENT BILL

Washington, September I.-(Spec1dl.) The Army and Navy Register, the off cial organ of the army and navy, and always judged inclined to the militaris- tic school, has surprised every one in Washington by indorsing the bill setting the standard for the peace army intro- duced by Representative Dent of Ala bama.
 The bill of Mir Dent does not provide for com pulsory military training, and offers strong arm of protection to the National Guard units of the several states of the union. It has incurred the oppo- sition of the general staff, of war-hke members of Congress and the enrnity of those officers inclined to the szarish idea in things military. It is directly counter troduced by Senator Chamberlain, Repre- sentative Kahn and the general staff.
 So the indorsement of the Dent bill by the Army and Navy Register has sur prised no one more so than MT Dent. Another interesting indication is that the Dent bill today stands a better chance of weathering the House and the Senate than either of the other measures intended to set the standard for the army in times of peace Of course, the attitude of General Pershing and the President, both of whom are said to be inclined to universal compulsory military training, when that attitude is expressed formally, may change the situation. But today the Dent bill is the favorite in the bet ting.
 MT. Dent is strongly welded to the ideas embodied in his measure, and he is sanguine in belief that they will pre- vail when the actual test comes

BLACKMON URGES
 JUSTICE TO VOTERS

Washington, September 2.-(Special) Representative Blackmon expresses re- gret that the legislature of Alabama in it's current session has failed to elimi- nate an injustice to voters just become of age which was imposed by the legisla- ture iFs the next preceding session.
 In the preceding session, time was fixed for registration. And it happened that many boys becoming of age after the time fixed could not vote in elections transpring between that time and the next time for registration
 MT. Blackmon sometime ago addressed a letter to State Senator Acker. admin istration spokesman. asking that he see to it that this injustice be eliminated and that proper justice be done to the sol diers. MT. Acker, in replying, stated that it had been arranged that anyone cNuld register at any time prior to 60 days pre- ceding an election. However, should a boy become of age 50 days prior to an election, he could not participate For that reason MT. Blackmon thinks the work of the legislature incomplete, and today he wrote MT. Acker, He asks if it be possible the legislature do fur ther justice to the young men of the state.

Soldiers in Siberia
 Cause Of Controversy
In Spite of Masons Plea Congress Not Inclined Inter- fere-Southern Wholesale Grocers Are
 Against the Packers
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington. September 12.-(SpeciaL) The House committee on military affairs has declined to report the resolution of Representative Mason of Illinois which would have directed the administration to withdraw United States troops from Siberia
 Senator Johnson of California, is known. has insisted for many months that the troops be returned home. The administration has been silent in the face of his bitterest attacks. Several days ago Representative Mason, after inn pas2ioned address in the House, offered his resolution. It was greeted by dem onstration in which democrats as well as republicans participated.
 In course of the demonstration, Repre- sentative Wingo of Arkansas, 8 demo- crat, urged Mir. Mason to ask for the im- mediate consideration of his resolution. Mir. Mason, however, selected to permit it to go to the committee, but added that if the committee did not act favorably and promptly he would ask the House to discharge the committee from further consideration of his resolution. Where upon, Mir. Wingo dramatically declared that if the republican majority would support the resolution in strength com paratively full, he would guarantee the democrats would muster material strength to aid the republicans. And there was another demonstration.
 Despite the rather serious outlook for the committee, the committee retired in silence. Following its session this aft ernoon, Representative Quin of Missis- sippi made the motion that the commit tee fayorably report the Mason resoiu- tion demanding of the administration that 1t return to America American il oops engaged against bolsheviki in Si- oeria. Representative Kahn of Cali fornia, chairman of the committee, op- posed the Quin motion, and his lead was followed by other republicans and cer- tain of the democratic members. And tho motion was beaten.
 Therefore. it may follow within 8 day or two that Representative Mason will initiate his fight to take his resolution cut of the keep of the committee. The fight, it is indicated, will fail despite the demonstration which greeted the in- troduction of the resolution, despite Rep- resentatiye Wingo's committal of the democratic membership, and despite the fact that many members of Congress wonder why United States troops are kept in Russia.
 Representative Dent of Alabama oe- clares that the situation is not to be proceeded against by resolution-that hill ia necessary to result in change of policy. Efforts to ascertain why Amer can troops are retained ill Russia are ridiculous excess in his opinion, inas- much as Secretary Baker and General March have both formally stated the reason.
 The reason is this" said Mir. Dent: The only means by which starvation

HOUSE WATERPOWER
 BILL IS REPORTED
By Associated rra.s

Washington, September 12.-The House water power development bill as amend ed by the Senate commerce committee was reported to the Senate today by Chairman Jones. who gave notice that he would seek it's consideration at the first opportunity.
 In formal report accompanying the bill Senator Jones said it's theory was to provide for private development of water power projects, but with ultimate gov ernment ownership possible" Early en- actment is desired, the committee report declared. adding
 we should do one of two things; we should pass legislation which will lead private capital and enterprise to develop these resources under such regulations as will give consumers good service and cheap power, or the government of itself should proceed to make this develop ment"
 new power projects. the committee re- port said:
 Every year that our water powers are undeveloped means loss to the peo- pie in one form or another almost if not quite equal to the cost of their de- velopment Legislation action should be delayed no longer"
 Senator Jones asserted that the bill declares for the government ownership and operation of power projects at the end of 90 years private deyeIopment insuring power for dependent industries if the private licenses are unable to agree upon terms for extension of their con- tracts The bill aso, he said, insures re- turn upon private capital invested

can be removed from many thousands Of people is a railroad in Siberia. If bol- sheviki take charge of this railroad, star vation will ensue. Japanese. English. American and French troops are guard ing this railroad. There you have the reason why our troops are kept in Rus sia. So it is folly for anyone to en- deaNor to ascertain the reason by res olution. If member thinks the reason not worthy, he should proceed against it by means of q bill, not by resolution"
 Mir. Dent added that the disposition of the committee was to consider the ques- tion on it's merits rather than fly in the face of the promised attack by Mir. Mason. The administration by keeping men in Russia indicates that it approves of the agreement with associated powers which caused their assignment It has not issued explanations in answer to the assertions of Senator Johnson, Rep resentative Mason and others.

PRESSING UNAFFECTED BY
 WASHINGTON RECEPTION

Washington. September 12.-(Special> General Pershing was unaffected by the reception Washington extended at the Union station this afternoon, and on ac- count of the lack of enthusiasm on the part Of the American military leader, Washington was disappointed.
 Only twice while in the station plaza did Pershing raise his hand to salute, and not once did he raise his hat A very fine opportunity for the latter cour- tesy was offered when a number of young girls, dressed in various colors, rushed forward to his automobile cheer ing and waving banners. But Pershing contented himself with methodical sa- lute, accompanied by what appeared a forced or manufactured smile.
 The crowd at the station was large but not tenth the size of that which waited until after the midnight hour to welcome ihe President returning from France. This fact might have affected

ALABAMIANS WILL
 SPEAK IN SEVENTH

Washington, September 12.-(SpeciaL) Representative Dent of Alabama agreed today to deliver an address in Cullman September 27 in behalf of Capt. l.. B. Rainey, democratic nominee to succeed the late John l.. Burnett
 Senator Underwood has agreed to make three or four speeches in the Senevth district provided he can do so without running risk of losing his vote in the Senate on some resolutions involving the league of nations.
 Word from the Seventh reaching Washington is to the effect that Rep resentative Heflin. who delivered sev- eral speeches in behalf of the democratic nominee. did much good in arousing the democrats to the necessity of going to the polls and voting.
 Apathy on the part of democrats repre- sents the sole dager to the success of the nominee, it is said.

 The genaral was received by Vice President Marshall and Secretary Baker. They repeatedly raised their hats, the former with a happy, boyish smile, the latter with that sternness which accom- panies an appreciation of dignity.
