THE OTHER Ex-KAIsER

 brief dispatch announces that Charles papsburg. formerly Emperor Of Austria and King of Hungary, has quietly packed un his belongings and. accompanied py his family, has gone over into Switzer- land to live There is nothing about this change of residence to arouse resentment or to inspire hostile comment owltzer- land has long been known as health resort Herr Hapsburg believes that Switzerland at present will be health fer place for him than Hungary, where be has been residing during the past few months.
 After lie ceased to function as Emperor and King, Herr Hapsburg unostenta- tiously retired to a comfortable Hunga- rian castle and became harmless gen tleman of leisure. He was not dsliked hv his neiehbors. No one believed Herr Hapsburg in any measure responsible for inc world catastrophe which was plotted before he was even considered as heir to the Austrian throne, and there was no conviction that his conduct after assum
 ns imperial rank had prolonged the war or affected it's course. So, while Herr Hohenzollern sneaked over into Holland Herr Hapsburg remained safely in his
 country.
 The coming of bolshevism to Hungary somewhat changed Herr Hapsburgs s out look. Bolshevism in Russia had set al ex-emperor, an ex-empress and foul young ex-grand duchesses against z stone wall as targets. for bolshevik fir | ing squads.

Sheffield Entertains Well

 from Birmingham to the meeting or the
 section of bankers at Sheffield, said
 Alex E.. Walker, ''and I must congrat-
 ulate the citizens of that enterprising
 city for the manner in which they en- tertained us. Even the heavy and con- tinuous rain could not dampen the en- thusiasm with which they handled the situation.

 Pursuing our way still towards th' north, we find great changes. Dwelling were replaced by a commodious chulch which furnished for years a place. ee' worship for the congregation of the Firs' Methodist brethren. Later it was cor verted into a gymnasium, but on the spci at present stands the Hillman, Whlcf was built to keep pace with the needs of the city for modern and wel equipped hotel.
 Just across the street more dwellings, were abandoned to make room Tor the Fox building, which in it's day has housed some of the largest retail grocery con cerns in Birmingham. On the tlftn avenue corner the William Morris homo was for years one of the most attractive on the avenue, but for awhile was turned over for offices of the Tidewate: line.
 Jumping the avenue and still goins north. we come to what is one of ths greatest changes in the whole of Nine teenth street, for homes gave way to small stores, which in their turn, were laid low to give Uncle Sam chance to construct a $1,00O000 postoffice, which is now in the process of constructionf and when completed will be, for whliy at least. the dominant architectural fea- ture of BirrAingham's business district. I only started out to travel on the lefthand side if Nineteenth street. going north to Sixth avenue and, having passed the lovely parsonage and reached the handsome First Methodist church, l believe l will stop in and hear my friend, George Stuart, preach.

Far Cry From Whitman To the Amy Lowells

MMAY 31 will be the centenary of NVU Walt Whitman's birth. "The Good Gray Poet" struck new note in American literature and the free verse" atrocities of his jmitators who have merely succeeded in being gro- tesoue where Whitman was often ma jestic and never puerile, should not be permitted to detract from his fame.
 It is one thing to infuse genius into uncouth lines and quite another to retain merely the faults of master, if they are faults, and leave out the genius. Call him poet, iberator or what not, Whitman's vagabond soul could not have lowered in any other literary atmosphere than that which he created for himself. His was not the art that could follow the narrow paths trod by those who had gone be- fore him. He was man whose heart : was attuned to the heart-beats of his 2 fellows, he was a great seer and a singer who made up for what he
 lacked in music by the vigor and real
 ism with which he probed life.
 : And it is worth while for the vers : librists to remember that Whitman's
 most famous poem, that immortal in 2 vocation to Lincoln, beginning, Gap . tain, my captain" was not written : in his usual rugged style, but is flaw : lessly poetical.

Rainbow Division
 In Regular Army

TIT is gratifying to know that the l historic Rainbow" division will be perpetuated in the regular army establishment, along with the names of IS other national guard and na- tional army divisions with war rec ord in France. Announcement to this effect was made yesterday by General March, chief of staff.
 Although the Forty-second division, the famous "Rainbows," will be cav airy division, it will be made up of men drawn from all the states in the union, thus maintaining it's character as nationwide organization.
 The decision by the war department will meet with public approval, and it is especially pleasing to Americas heroes who were so fortunate as to belong to one of the now historic di- visions.
 The American people will never for get the achievements of the "Rain- bow" division or the exploits of any other unit which helped to give Ger many the finishing blow, but the con- tinued existence of these divisions will be a reminder always before us of what American pluck and bravery accomplished in the world war.

D. c. WAGE SCALE
CONCILIATOR NAMED

Rowland B. Mshanny today was
appointed by the Department Of
Labor to act as concilator between
the District Commissioners and or
ganized labor of the District over
the difficulties arising because Of the
new wage scale.
A conference was held this morn
ing between Joseph H. Hurley. presi-
dent of the City Employers Asso-
citation, and Mr.. Mahanny. Mr.. Hur-
ley, with several other members Of
the union, presented to the Depart
ment of Labor conciliator their side
of the case. They told how the Dis
trict Commissioners had reduced
their basic pay. This was done, they
said, in order that per diem employees
should not be benefited by the en-
tire $40 bonus provided by Congress-
They contended that the basic pay
should remain the same, and that the
$40 should be additional.
By the new wage scale District per
diem employees are benefited by only
$3.50 of the $40.
Mr.. Mahanny said he would i'm
mediately get in communication with
the Commissioners and hear their
side Of the case.
