PORTS OF SOUTH
 TO BE TREATED FAIRLY

Washington, July 17.-(Special Doe spite the great many handicaps in the way, there does seem a chance that the railroad administration will so elimin- ate discrimination in rates that the south Atlantic and gulf ports will have an opportunity to obtain their share of the business of the country
 Under present conditions favoritism sends all business to New York. As result, there is often stagnation be- cause that port, despite it's excellent equipment, cannot quickly transact all the business. Favoritism keeps busi- ness away from gulf and south Atlan- tic ports and as result. there is stagna- tion at those ports, though for reasons entirely dissimlar.
 Recently in Washington, there was organized body of men representing the Mississippi Valley association, the south Atlantic ports and the gulf ports This body expressed a determination to continue the fight against rate dis crimfnation until it was won. This week, they were received by the off cials of the railroad administration, who heard their arguments. The ad- m1nistration agreed that discrimination was practiced and that reasons which they declared made discrimination nec- essary should be removed. They added that at the present time a proper solu- ton was being worked out They prom lSed relief.
 The officials have promised relief on other occasions, and relief has never come. But Senator Smith of South Caro- 1ina- and Senator Underwood, who are interested in the fight, believe that since the government. in building merchant marine, had shown certain recognition of south Atlantic and gulf ports there was reason to hope that the promises of the railroad administration will not prove to be as pie crust.
 In an organization formed all ports, Including Mobile, will be represented by delegates limited to one each. The body is permanently organized. and it's campaign will be aggressive and con dnuous.

REED PLATED OVER
 TRIP TO THE SOUTH

Washington, July 1z-(SpeciaL) )-Sen- ator James A. Reed of Missouri, return ed to Washington today, greatly elated as result of his visits to Atlanta and Birmingham, where he delivered ad- dresses against the covenant of the league of nations
 The League for the Preservation of American Institutions, the organization fighting the league of nations. announced in prepared statement that against the advice of the press and certain citizens in each city, the senator was greeted in Atlanta and Birmingham by over whelming audiences which heard the speakers remarks amid demonstra tions.
 It is said tonight that the President is considering the advisability of starting his tour in interest of the league in At lanta and BirTnin gham. The anti-crowd contend that such consideration is due to the effect of Reeds addresses. Dem- ocrats as a rule, however, entertain the view that the President is moved solely through desire that the south be made

Frank Derby Gets Big
 AdUertising at he Capital
Alabama Man Makes Hit With His Rooster Sale Every where He Goes-Government About to Give
 Fair Treatment to Ports of the South
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington July 17.-(Special) )-No man has impressed Washington more than Frank Derby of Sumter county, who came in interest of a rooster sale by beans of which he will raise between s1oo,Ooo and s2OO,O 900 for the construc- tion of & bridge across the Tombigbee river.
 When Mir. Derby was presented to va rious members of congress and of the press, considerable skepticism was dis played. For it appeared impossible that from the sale of chickens in small counties of a state judged financially poor, such a large sum of money could be raised. But skepticism was removed when it was explained that Mir. Derby had had no trouble in selling bulls, last year, for very fancy prices, and that not only was great sums of money raised for the Red Cross, but that every body. including the heavy investors. were satisfied with the result
 And then Mir. Derby became the ob- 3ect of general curiosity. This curios- ity grew and found expression in local
 
 other city of the country-when it be- came known that the project had re- cefved the indorsement of President Wilson, Premiers Orlando, Clemenceau and Lloyd-George as well as General Pershing, General Foch and General Haig. There was even deeper interest when the fact became known that these men at the heads of the governments of the world and at the heads of the vic terious armies of the world, had donated chickens to bear their names
 Mr. Derby stated that he had been pleasantly received everywhere en route to Washington, he tackled every body on the train, and nearly every body signed a card to send a rooster with his entrance fee of s10. Several strangers agreed to buy roosters at minimum price of $100 each There will be roosters in the sale representa- tive of nearly all states of the union, and of Canada and Cuba
 When MT. Derby emerged from the eDecu tive offices after having been received by the President he was tackled by members of the press. He told them what business he had had with the President. And then he asked them to contribute roosters. And all of them did so.
 The earnestness of the promoter was exemplified in story he told: 'I was in Montgomery some days ago when two members of the legislature agreed to contribute roosters and buy roosters contributed by two handsome ladies who were seated nearby-provided the ladies in question would make the con- tribution. They agreed to buy these roosters for 5000 each. I did not know the ladies but I knew my cause was just. So I approached them. At first, they raised their eyebrows. But very soon, convinced that there was merit in the case, they agreed to give roosters and they said:
 We are working for ratification of the suffrage amendment. Perhaps, you can help us" I agreed to move heaven and earth for them They asked me to make the members with me vote for ratification. l agreed to do so. went to work. One of them was already a suffragegist. I got the other"

with fooling the people into believing that they were reducing expenses than in caring for the soldiers who had lost limbs in defense of the honor of the world.
 Against that meagre appropriation, Representative Bankhead so vigorously inveighed that the bill, when completed, carried an appropriation S2,00O,o0 in excess of the original figure. But it was not as big as he wanted it. He thought that it should contain an ap- propriation of SIC, 100000.
 When the President got the bill, he instantly saw that the money it car ried would not adequately serve the need of the soldiers who had risked all In the war. So he vetoed it and sent it again to the house. The republicans, confronted by the necessity of enact ing the sundry civil measure, fell in line. The new measure carries SIP, 000,- 900.
 MT. Bankhead has been congratulat- ed by members of congress who aided and sympathiZed with him in his fight

BANKHEAD'S VICTORY
 FOR VOCATIONAL BILL

Washington, July 17.-(SpeciaI) )-Re- presentative Bankhead, with the as sistance of the President, scored a sig nal triumph over the republicans when. respecting the sundry civil bill. they abandoned, under force, their program of retrenchment-for political reasons.
 The sundry civil bill, originally re- ported, contained a meagre appropria- ton for vocation education. By voca- tional education. it was the hope of de- mocrats that soldiers wounded in the war and prevented thereby from earn- ing adequate money for their main tenace, would be given opportunity to care for themselves and their depend- cnts. By the very small appropriation provided, the republicans left impress
 sion that they were more concerned

MER|TONE MAKES HOUSEWORk EASY Woman Was Tired Out and Draggy, But Is Feeling
 Fine Now

My health got so poor that the house work became a burden" said Mrs. ED McCabe, of 315 Howerton avenue, Nash vile, Tenn.
 'I was nervous and could hardly sleep at night, and as result felt tired and draggy all the time.
 Since taking Meritone I can go to bed at night and get right to sleep and not wake up until morning. I feel fine when I get up now and the work about the house is easy for me-
 Meritone is excellent for ailing condi- tions of the stomach, liver or kidneys, catarrh nervousness and the like.
 Meritone is being specially introduced in Birmingham by the Jacobs drug store and the Norton drug store, and is sold in Ensley by the Berney drug store, and in Bessemer by the Pegram-Patton Drug Co.-Adv.

There was no chance for the amendment to carry But some of the dry" brethren thought otherwise. In consequence if very in. teresting story is true, they very hasti- ly got rid of their wet" goods. some by giving 1t away, others by selling 1t, and others by dumping thunder a still and voceless moon-into the depths of the Potomac river

GALLIVAN CAUSES STIR
 AMONG PROHIBITIONISTS

Washing Ibn, July 17.-(SpeciaL )-Re- presentative Gallivan of Massachusetts has been the most active opponent in the house against the drastic bill by m cans of which the ultra prohibition ists would enforce their federal amend ment.
 In course of his fight he charged that the dry" members of the house or many of them-had cellars well stacked with liquor. He said that he

and that Blanton could not talk to him as if he had been born otherwise. There was much else to the same effect. And then Derby retired slamming the door behind him.
 Should Blanton repent and send a rooster to Demopolis. the rooster would be hanged. Or at any rate, Mir. Derby says that that would be his fate.

EVER SALIVATED BY
 CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel is quicksilver and acts like dynamite on your
 liver

Calomel loses you a day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury: quick silver Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calom el attacks the bones and should never be put into your system.
 When you feel bilious sluggish. con Stipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for few cents a large bottle of Dod- sons Liver Tone, which is entirely veg etable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel It is guaranteed to start your liver without Stirring you up inside. and can not sali- vate.
 Don't take calomel. It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a days work. Dodsons Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great. Give 1t to the children because it is perfectly AAyUless and doesn't gripe.

COURTS TO END STRIKES
ADVOCATED BY KENYON

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-Industrial
courts to settle industrial labor dis
putes must be provided by the Gov
ernment. Senator Kenyon of Iowa de-
elared in an address bfore the
Lawyers Club here. Strikes are no
longer a private fight between en-
ployer and employe, he said. The
American public, the third party to be
considered, does not propose, he added,
to stand for strikes-'a relic of in
dustrial barbarism."
I'VE must have tribunals where
these matters can be settled" Senator
Kenyon asserted. "We must estab-
lish courts of mediation. conciliation.
and compulsory investigation, and
their decisions must be backed up by
public opinion which will enforce
them"
The employer who works his en-
ployes ten and twelve hours day in
the interests of large dividends needs
as much Americanism as the Boil
shevist" the Senator declared. "The
Congressman who goes to Washington
for the most number of votes he can
roll up also needs Americanizatiop.'
