From these and many other reas-
ons, the army is the least of this coun-
try's fears as far as Rolsheyism is
concerned. Al over the country you
will find the service men keen to put
down demonstrations of this sort.
They are men of their own accord, not
prompted by any one. The other day
l was in a city whore a Bolshevist
meeting had been broken up by some
service men. | knew one of the men
who was concerned in this. l asked
him how it occurred. He said, why,
sir, it is this way, | was talking TO
some of the fellows down at the w.
e. C. S. and guy says TO us, they've
got red flag meeting on for tonight
said to some of the men, that ain't
the flag we know anything about, or
fought for. Let's go down AMI bust
them birds up" The service man
feels that this is his country. His first
and foremost concern is for the Unit
ed States. He wants the institutions
of this country to stand, He has given
himself, and where one has given of
ones self the interest is deepest, He
has bought a share of stock OF the
United States. As a stakeholder he in
tends to do what he can to see that
the concern is run properly.
In order to keep developing proper
ly and to approach the ideal of a
vested interest in the community for
all citizens it is necessary to move
forward with sane, well-thought,
progressive program. 1t may be neces-
sary to modify or change certain
things in this country in the future,
but the service man intends, as far as
he is able, TO see that those changes
and, notifications are carried out in
such way as will not destroy or in
jure the national fabric and institu-
tons. Again, first, last and always
the service man is an Americana!

SOME CURIOUS SOUVENIRS.
Manchester Guardian


Apparently M. Clemenceau's prac-
tical mind and hate of show are going
to deprive his admirers of the right
of gazing at the famous perforated
coat and waistcoast in one of the Paris
museums, for these are not to be in
cluded among the relics of greatness
for future age. like Nelson's coat
and the Napoleon relics.
There have been some curious
souvenirs of the kind. apart from the
half-smoked cigars of royalties which
are treasured by Americans and
others. Most curious of all undoubt-
eddy was Lord Anglesey's leg" Lord
Anglesey lost a leg at Waterloo, and
it was buried in the garden of the villa
to which he was taken. In after years
he used to recall how parties OF peo-
pie visited the spot ito view the
grave" A relic of another kind was
George IFS famous coat, and it was
a pleasant trait in the fiery little king
that he squeezed himself at Dettingen
into the coat he had worn years be-
fore at Oudenarde. Horace Walpole's
researches after Queen Mary's comb,

Tromp smoked in his last sea fight,

 N yet there is no Underwood A\ boom. But one is expected S There was a very substantial one in 1912, and conditions now are more favorable than then. Providing always, of course, there is no Wilson boom, with MT. Wilson consenting. low all the other booms on the dem- ocratic side of the fence.
 MT. Underwood enjoys the distinc- tion of being the only man from the who has been balloted for seriously for a presidential nomination since the civil war Born in 1862, he had no part in the great struggle between the sections. But he is southern by birth and training and residence, and thoroughly representative of the south's best aspirations today.
 He is not an orator, though very ready speaker. He is studious, and prefers serious to showy subjects. He has mastered the tariff from the dem ocratic point of view; and the pres ent tariff law bears his name. His opinions are of weight also on financial matters; and on business questions generally he is quoted with much re- spect in business as well as polit- ical circles.
 Hence. probably, the attention his boom commanded in Baltimore six years ago. He was esteemed safe and unavoidable man who had famil- iarized himself with important ques-

TWENTY YEARS AGO IN THE AGE-HERALD Events recorded June Il, 1898.

Since then he has been transferred to the Senate. and has taken as prominent place there as he occupied in the House Unless the Senate operates as hoodoo it is accused of doing in presidential matters-Mr. Underwood should be an entrant for the stakes in the next democratic national ccnven- ton.
 MT. Bankhead was in charge of the Underwood boom at Baltimore, ana presumably will be in charge should boom develop next year. He and his colleague in the Senate are much alike in their appeal to the conservative. business element of their party. Mr. Bankhead is well known and much re- spected in business circles north as we'll as south. He has shown himself to be a good political organizer at home having won several of his races for congress, first as the representative and then as senator, in hard contests, and unquestionably would show qual- ity in a national campaign pushing his colleague for president.
 As already stated, no Underwood boom is expected if Mir. Wilson con sents to try his luck the third time The Alabama senator is a supporter or the administration. and loyal party man.

Republican Senators
 Embarrass MT. Wilson

INTO more unseemly and undignified N exhibition has been witnessed in the United States Senate in years than the partisan wrangle over al- legged copies of the peace treaty. Pre- cedent was violated, breach of con- fidence committed and President Will son treated with discourtesy in read ing the allied peace proposals on the floor of the Senate, which was fol- lowed, after the terms has been partly read, by rushing them to the govern ment printing office to be placed in the Congressional Record.
 The bitterness and rancor shown be- fore the peace treaty has been formal ly submitted to the Senate for ratifi- cation presage acrimonious debate when it finally comes up for consid- eration. With Orlando blocking pro- ceedings in Paris, France disgruntled, Japan hostile and the German envoys declaring they will not sign. the sit uation at home is another source of embarrassment to President Wilson.
 Except to vent their spleen on the democratic party and it's leader, it is hard to see what such men as Borah and Lodge hoped to gain by their tac- tics. The Senate cannot pass on the peace treaty now. In course of time it will be called on to take action, but for the present it would be more in keeping with Senatorial dignity to adopt a waiting attitude, to avoid re- crimination and above all to quit play ing politics. Germany is truculent enough, without being encouraged by reactionary senators who seem to be republicans first and Americans after ward.

Building Activity ] In Many Cities

THE building trades are exception
 J ally busy in many cities, includ- ing several in the south. Richmond, Norfolk, Atlanta, Jacksonville, New Orleans, Dallas, Houston and other Texas cities are witnessing solid building booms.
 In Birmingham not few houses of the better class are in course of con- struction and in the industrial dis tricts many dwellings have been built since the early spring. But the big rush will come later.
 Why not build now? There is no doubt about house shortage in Bir- mingham. Those persons who can af- ford to build and who propose to build make great mistake in waiting. The cost will not come down. On the other hand the price of material will prob ably advance before the end of the year. As for labor, it is not over abundant now, and when the boom does come, as come it will, there will be a scarcity of building mechanics

From the Brooklyn Eagle. 6E1HOUSANDS of bards and hundreds
 of thousands of would-be bards are
 S interested in the news that the Po- etry societys $500 prize for the best vol ume of verse published by an American author in 1918 has been equally divided be- tween a woman who recognized rhyme and rhythm and a man who wrote vers fibre. The judges, Professor William Ly- on Phelps of Yale, Richard Burton and Sara Teasdale Filsinger. have clearly passed the buck to the reading public. It you like vers fibre they would not dis courage you.
 It was of Ralph Waldo Emerson that Lowell wrote:
 Whose prose is grand verse, while, as everyone knows,
 His verse is-well, most of it-not even prose.
 And frankly. the distinction between Emerson's prose and Walt Whitmans verse would puzzle Philadelphia law yer to find out. Technically the two ele- ments that make poetry are elevation or thought and music of expression. It IS the latter that is sometimes denied by critics to Whitman, often denied to the vers fibre writers and makes the bone Of contention over the Edgar Lee Masters school.
 As for the prizes of poetry they are, l in our times, fairly called "honorarla' and $25O more or less as a special reward will stir gratitude for recognition in any man or woman. without going far to pay butchers and grocers' bills. But just think of it, John Milton got only 95 for | Paradise Lost complete. and one may
 guess that it would cost a Milton at least $1O00 to have such work printed by any publisher today. Whittier was lucky to get S10 for a contribution to the Allan tic Monthly. Longfellow received s15 each for the Village Blacksmith" ''Endymi- on," and Gods Acre. Robert Burns

Interest In the
 Alabama Memorial

INTEREST is growing in the Ala 0 bama memorial building to be erected in honor of Alabama soldiers those who fought and died in France and those who were ready to go across the sea to battle for American ideals.
 The leaflet entitled, "Why the Ala bama memorial?" now being widely distributed, is at once informing and stimulating.
 Most of the states of the union have planned to erect memorials to their valiant sons. In times past memorials tcok the form of imposing monuments or sculptured groups, but the better way to honor the heroic dead is by an architectural work of taste and de- signed for useful service. The states that have decided to construct m emo- rial buildings are Alabama, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Jersay, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Da- kota and Tennessee. States that will probably follow the memorial building plan are Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico, Rhode Island and Utah. Colo rado and Washington are the only states that will erect monuments.
