PHONE PETITION
 ID BE TAKEN UP
 ON OCTOBER s
By WILLIAM l.. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, September S.-(Spe- cial )-Mayors and commissioners of 6s towns in Alabama have been inforned by the Alabama public service com mission that the petition of the Presi- dent of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph company. asking for approval of wartime rates iE Ala bama, will be taken up on October at the regular monthly meeting.
 The mayors are expected to be pres ent at the hearing and lend their d vice and assistance to the state com mission in reaching some agreement on the rate matter
 Many of the officials are expected to enter strenuous objections to the present rates, especially those promul- gated by the Postmaster General. and which provides for fee for services rendered' when the caller does not set connection with the party called.
 President Brown of Atlanta is ex- pected to attend the hearings, which will be the first since the Postmas.er General relinquished control of the telephone and telegraph wires.
 The commission, it was intimated Monday, would ask the governor to approve an appropriation for the ex- pensc of bringing experts to Mont Somery to testify as to the condition of the company from a financial standpoint, informing the commiss.2a whether or not the present high ra7es are necessary. The Postmaster Gen erals order increased telephone rates in almost every city in the United States The order also equalized rates making the rate approximately the same in towns of the same population and getting the same service. In soiiie instances the increase amounted to lo per cent, it was said.

Washington, September S.-(SpeciaL) The democratic congressional cam paign committee issued an appeal to- day to the democrats of the Seventh Alabama district to bestir themselves to the end that L. B. Rainey, demo- cratic nominee for the seat of the late Representative Burnett. might be elected by an overwhelming majority.
 The committee is certain that the nominee will win, but is anxious that his victory be made the most pro nounced of recent years. The object of the dem mocratic committee is to- re- buke the republican committee, which throughout the nation is making politl> cal capital of an alleged doubtful dis trict in a solidly democratic state.
 The defeat of MT. Rainey would con stitute a direct slap in the face of the President, the committee says, for the issue of the campaign is the league of nations, for which practically ali democrats stand, and against which the republicans are solidly arrayed The committee takes the position, too, that the seventh district, by sending a re- publican to Washington, would elimi- nate itself from the beneficent con- sideration of the democratic adminis- tration, would not only fail to share in governmental favors, but would en- counter the enmity of those in charge of affairs in Washington.
 In the appeal to the voters, Alaba- mians in Congress join. They express belief that if democrats by indiffer- ently refraining from voting permit the election of a republican, the entire delegation would be embarrassed by the indignity done the President.

ANSWERS RESERVATIONISTS
 By Associated Press

Omaha, September S-DiScuSSing for
 the first time during his speaking tour
 the proposed reservations to the league

 address here today to arguments ad -
 vanced by those who favor reservations "A reservation" said the President lis an assent with a big A We agree but

 The league proviso that international obligations must be fulfilled before with. drawal never would restrain the Unite q States, he said, because this nation al- | ways would live up to it's provisions. | Those who wanted a reservation to Ar | ticie 1o MT. Wilson continued, simply Cid ont want to come in now but wanted "to be late joiners.'
 Any reservation regarding the Monroe doctrine, he added. was unnecessary be- cause the doctrine has been swallowed hook, line and sinker,' by the peace con- 1 ference and had been authenticated by the big powers of the world for the first | time.
 l So far as reservations about domestic u, l it would be work of superorgation. "We didn't ask Germany's consent about 1 the meaning of any one of those terms when we were in Paris" he said. "We told them what they meant and said, Sign here. Does any patriotic American want that method changed?" | There were cries of "No! No,' from ! the crowd.

 | The only way the Shantung provision could be bettered, MT. Wilson declared,
 would be to go to war with Japan, Eng

SEVERAL DEMOCRATS
 UNCERTAIN ON TREATY

Washington, September S-(SpeciaD - Despite the vacilliation of certain weak kneed democratic senators. notably Smith, of Georgia; Shields, of Tennessee, and Simmons, of North Carolina, the un- certainty of the part of Overman, of North Carolina, and Smith, of South Carolina, the positive contrary position of Reed, of Missouri, and Thomas, of Colorado, and the report that Swanson, of Virginia, who is sometimes regarded as the presidents spokesman, is weaken ing, there is hope that the treaty un- amended, will be ratified.
 The situation is admittedly precar'ous, and hope of victory hinges on the mar rcwest possible margin. But forty sem ators are standing firmly for ratification without amendment And the opposition though in a majority. is not majority opposition on a single individual section

 National criticism is being directed against smith. of Georgia, Shields, of Tennessee, and Simmons, of North Caro- lima. They are censured more severely than Reed and Thomas for, in justice to the latter they did not take position boldly, even in the presence of the Pres ident. The last three Democratic con verts to the Lodge and Borah school went astray as soon as the President turned his back and the people are openly re- sentful. It is reported that Smith, Of South Carolina, Is weakening, and that Overman, of North Carolina, is prepar- ing to follow the lead of his colleague, Simmons. It is understood, too, that Swanson, who sometime ago, made a vigorous speech in defense of the league is quietly whispering of the necessity of amendments" No reason is assigned by either save the general contention that the treaty involves new doctrine of internationalism, whereas they prefer "Americanism'
