FORMER ADJUTANT
 GENERAL ON STATE
 NATIONAL GUARD
Virgil Evans Points Out Pos- sible Effects of Failure To Pass State Mili-
 tary Measure

Virgil V. Evans who was appointed ad- 1utant general of Alabama by Governor Henderson and served until Governor Kilby came into office, resigning when he was informed, according to his own state ment, that he was "too young to be recognized as adjutant general of Ala bs na," Is sending out to Alabama editors a letter in which he purports to outline the situation which confronts Alabama from national guard standpoint, and calls the attention of the editors of the state to conditions that he says are un- favorable to the guard.
 Among other things, former Adjutant General Evanss now ranking as major in the national guard, says
 t'When I resigned I had organized com pleteiy eight companies of infantry for the new national guard. Acquisition for s40oo00 worth of new equipment includ- ing arms. stores and quartermasters goods, requisition for A airplanes for organizing aero squadrons in the state Camp Sheridan had been accepted by the militia bureau. All had been en- dorsed by the general staff and Con- gress has since been asked for authority to issue the above. At this point the war department stepped in and advised me that the legislature of Alabama must adopt section no of the national de- fense act of 1916 before this equipment could be issued to Alabama. Section 11O provides that the appointments of ad- jutant general, all staff officers, and heads of other military departments of the state shall be made with the ap- proval of the war department, that all must qualify under regulations laid down

After the '' F!u'' Fever or Cold
Clean the Acidity and Toxic Poisons
 Out of the Digestive Tract

Millions arc now suffering from the aftaA effects of the deadly "flu," a lever or a cold, Their appetites are poor; they are weak, and they are waiting for their strength to come back.
 If these people could only realize that the return to health and strength would be greatly helped by giving at- tention to the stomach-thatis is, remov- ing the acidity and toxic poisons from the entire digestive tract, making it act naturally, SO that the body will receive the full strength of the food eaten-a great deal of suffering would be saved to humanity.
 Everyone knows that the disease It. self, and the strong medicines that have been taken, upset the stomach, leave it hot and feverish, the mouth dry, the tongue coated, a nasty taste, and no desire to eat. This is a poor foundation to build new strength on.
 Now, tens of thousands of people all over this country are using EATONIC for the purpose of cleaning these poisonous after-effects right out of the system and they are obtaining wonder ,ful results-Eo wonderful that the amazingly quick benefits gre hardly believable, just as shown in the re- markable letter which is published upon the request of this sturdy old Civil War veteran. He is 77 years old. Read what he says EATONIC did for him: !. T am an old soldier, past seventy
 seven years: had the Spanish fn- {. 1uenza and t left my stomach in an

by the Secretary of War and that all shall hold office until they are s4 years of age, unless removed by disability. courts martial or resignation It also provides that the federal government will pay all members of the national guard a regular salary. This takes the adjutant general office out of politics, as 1t should be. The idea makes for a new national guard along the lines of efficiency purely, at the same time the states rights for the use of such national guard within the boundaries of theA state are not curtailed in the least
 Major Harley Moon of ! Birmingham has been appointed to succeed me. Major Moon is now in hospital in New Jersey and will not likely arrive in Alabama until after adjournment of the legsa- ture, according to all indications. I have just been advised that Governor Kilby is making no effort to get the state military law rewritten for passage by the legislature. If it is not rewritten and passed the state will lose the above named equipment and items and the eight companies that have been completed will have to be disorganized. Now it is needless for me to try to explain to you the need of a national guard in Ala bama at this time. It is not to fight la bor. Labor opposed me in the organiza- tion until I informed them why the na- toLal guard was being carried, and since they have helped. I will say, however, that Alabama has 25,S75 negroes in the army. Fully this number of foreigners or men of other caste have been brought into portions of the state to work in the industries to meet the war demands. There are other things of which you know, and while things are running smoothly at this time, who knows when the storm will break?
 "In organizing the national guard full provision was made for the Alabama men overseas. The new law will require that Alabama organizes total of $500 men in the national guard based on a total of 800 men for every Congressman and Sen- and companies of the national guard are being held open for the members to reorganize upon their return from France The regiment now under organization is the third regiment infantry, we had no third regiment.
 Almost every state in the Union, es- pecially those states which embody large industrial centers are frantically taking advantage of the war departments offer and are getting their national guard com, pleted. There are two sides to this-viz the first states will get Athe pick of tho airplanes and other equipment, and the first states will be protected with their own force Please do not think me radical when I say that unless Alabama takes advantage of this opportunity and meets the federal requirements and com pletes force of the national guard, Ala bsma will stand an excellent opportunity of having to call on the government to send us force from the regular army This would be shame and disgrace to a state that has always upheld it's own in an independent manner"

10 Million Pounds of Copper Is Sold In
 New York Yesterday
By Associated ''Prsss

< New York, February 6.-Ten million pounds of coper was sold here today by large and small selling agencies when the former reduced the price from 2S to 1sS cents pound, with small lots selling as low as IS cents, according to conservative estimates in market cir cles.- While the trading, the first of any consequence since the signing of the armistice paved the way for an open market. was not heavy. copper dealers asserted that 1t marked the beginning of business on a peace scale.
 As far as could be learned the new price applied only to domestic business. the Copper Export association still quoting the commodity at 23 cents for shipment abroad. However, it was said that a Committee of the association now in Europe might revise the export price after conference with foreign buyers.

Washington. February 6.-In a let ter to Governor Kilby of Alabama. made public here today, the Prisoners 8 Relief society charges there is graft in Alabama prisons and asked for -rts correction.

It is pay or suffer and when you pay you still suffer- He says it is a bid circle. There is no end to the thing. Il meets you coming and 1t meets you going!

Montgomery. February 6.-(SpeciaLo When the house and senate of Alabama adjourns Friday afternoon they will adjourn to meet again at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning to begin their six teenth Legislative day.

Drive for Sufferers in the
 Near East and Our Own" Charities Officially Launched
(Continued from Page Five)

(Contfnued from Page Five) ferent sections of the country, and no: a man that I had asked to take a posi- tion had turned me down, each of them saying. I want to do something worth while, and with tears in their eyes, when I explained my drive, said: You may count on me for time and money
 "The American committee for relief in the near east is undertaking to raise S30, 10000, and the local drive for $75,- 900 is now on. Several questions natural ly arise, one-Who composes this commit tee? More than 100 of the most promi- nent men of America, such men as William H. Taft, Charles E.. Hughes, Henry Morgenthau, Oscar Straus, Will liam T. Ellis and Cleveland H. Dodge. Second, why was this committee organ ized? When MT Morgenthau was our ambassador to Turkey and the Armenians were being massacred and deported he saw that unless America came to the rescue they would all die. He, there fore, cabled the state department at Washington asking for the appointment of a committee, and that this committee send him funds immediately with which to relieve their suffering. Within "A hours s50, 900 had been cabed. As the suffering increased, the committee has been en- larged.
 "AnOther question naturally arises: Why doesn't the govern ment help them9 The government cannot loan money to fndividualsI 1t can only loan to nations. These people have no national organiza- tiOn.
 Then the question arises: Why don't the Red Cross take care of them? There are three reasons, one is that the cross emblem Is despised by the MOslems and it will not be tolerated. Second, the Turks consider the Red Cross as
 war organization, and we did
 not declare war on Turkey. The
 third reason Is that, after confer
 ence with Mir. Dav1sOn, chairman
 of the American Red Cross. he
 stated that we were doing the work
 just as effectively and more eco
 nomically than they could, since
 those of our people who ad-
 ministering the relief already spoke
 the Turkish language and did not
 receive any compensation for their-
 work.
 CONGRESS- APPROPRIATION
 Recently we have been asked if the $100 O00,O appropriated by Congress would be available for these people. The act as passed by Congress speci- fies that this fund is to be used at the discretion of the President, and he has cabled that none of 1t will be avail able for Armenian or Syrian relief, as has also MT. Hoover. The President urges the oversubscription of the $30,- 000, 900, and Mir. Hoover has cabled, asking the cooperation of all the food administrators with our committee.
