EPUBLICA MEMBERSHIP
IN HOUSE VERY WEAK

Washington, November 6.-(Special)
it was his purpose to expose the rot
compared with its standard in old days
is admittedly lacking in strategy and
really in punch
Representative Mondell of Wyoming is
the majority leader. He has suffered
himself to be led into innumerable plights
by the more adroit Champ Clark, who
leads the democrats, and Represe ntative
kitchln or North Carolina, who acts
as his right-hand man. But for the
fact that Mondell is supported by ma
jority column, he could not have moved
peg since the beginning of his incum
bency.
When the republicans organized the
House the logical leader was Representa-
tive Mann of Illinois. one of the ablest
republican general developed in the last
decade. viii II. Hays, chairman of the
republican national committee, fearing
the "reactionary' tendencies of Mr.,
Mann, sent orders for his defeat He
ordered the election of Mondell, self
styled progressive of the west. Mondell
was elected. Mann returned to Illinois
and with a single exception, has been
absent since. The Mann following, in
Guiding Uncle Joe" Cannon and Repre-
sentative Longworth of Ohio son-in-law
to former President Roosevelt, is a sore
organization, and evidently takes delight
in the innumerable traps into which
Mondell is led and imprisoned by his mi
nority opposition.
Mr.. Mondells colloquy with Mr.. AS
well of Texas, illustrates the attention
which the leader gives to little things.
Mr.. Aswel charged that Mr.. Mondell
had prevented him from speaking because
it was his purpose to expose the rot
tenness'' of republican leadership of the
House. Mr.. Mondell demanded that the
words of Aswell be taken down and
stricken from the record. He declared
them untrue. Then Mr.. Crisp of Georgia
moved that the words of MondeI be
taken down and stricken from the rec
ord because he had charged a fellow
member with lying.
The debate ragged furiously for many
hours-an entire afternoon, as a matter
of fact-and was terminated only when
Mondell whispered to Mr.. Kitchen, II
will retract if Aswell will and let the mat
ter drop"
Mondelrs weak leadership, his inabl
ity to force his column into action or his
hesitancy to take up controversial sub
jects preceding a presidential campaign,
has resulted in Congress accomplishing
nothing vital since last May. 1t is adj
mitted that never has session been
more signal in its lacking Of material
achievement.

Stripped Of it's superfluous verbiage and

Stunning the pro-treaty leadership, was
a challenge to republican partisans to
carry out their threat to reject the

as Senator Lodge and Senator Under
wood spared for advantage. The strain
under which the Senate had existed for
six months almost reached the breaking
point as Senator Underwood, in manner
sensational, stripped the contentious of
Senator Lodge of their logic or right of
being.
Irritated, finally, the republican lead
er, believing that his majority column
would prevent acquiescence on the part
of democrats, flippantly challenged the
pro-leaguers to a vote. When Under
wood accepted he collapsed into his
seat and was only called into action
again by the necessity of arranging
pairs and when the final question was
put prior to the vote, the Lodge col
umn wavered and Jones, by denying
unanimous consent, caused the resump-
ton of the long drawn out routine
process of procedure.
The democrats were left in possession
of the field. The republicans gave I'M
mistakable proof of their unwillingness
to go on record as rejecting the treaty.

IMMIGRATION FROM
WEST TO SOUTH

Washington, November 6.-(Special)
immigration from the west to the south
is indicated in statements of officials
of the interior and agricultural depart
ments. 1t is no longer Go west, young
mani The new suggestion is go southr'
Farmers of Iowa, Illinois and other
great agricultural states have been sell
ing out their holdings at fancy prices
ranging up to 5000 500 an acre. and
are loking toward the south with it's COM
paratively cheap lands, fertile soil, mild
climate, abundant rainfall and other at
tractive features. Many of them have
already gone south and hundreds of north
ern farmers are operating successfully in
Florida, Mississippi and the other south
ern states. They have helped make the
desolation of cutover timber lands of
the coastal plain area to blossom like
the rose. The development organizations
of the southern states are receiving many
inquiries. from northern men who con-
template going into the live stock, dairy
ing, fruit growing and general farming
industries.
According to some sources of informa-
ton the turn of the immigration tide to
the southern states equals the emigration
to western Canada. During the first eight
months of this year over $500 Americans
emigrated to western Canada, which is
an increase of 1000 over the figures for
the corresponding period of last year, ac-
cording to newspaper authority. But
even if the southwark immigration should
equal the emgrat ion to Canada, organ
izations interested in the development of
the south believe that there is every
reason why Americans should stay at
home. 1t is pointed out that there is
plenty of room for them in the south,
together with opportunities such as ex-
list nowhere else in the world.
Confirmatory of the information In the
hands of the southern development or
CARNATIONS is the statement of HI. t.
Cory, consulting engineer of the United
States reclamation service, that there
are instances indicating the beginnings
of a trend of settlers to the south
and that doubtless these win increase.
There would be a still much stronger
tendency toward migration southwark.
it is believed by those in a position to
know if the facts about the south were
realized and understood by the rest of
the country. For ms a.nce, the fact has
not been told extensively until recently
that the south is a wonder when it comes
to raising foodstuffs She has been known
largely as a producer of cotton and to-
bacco Color was lent to the idea that
the south did not produce food by the
fact that great quantities of food prod
ucs have been shipped into the south. AS
a matter of fact, the south can ana
should feed herself and she is SAID 10
be doing it now in greater proportion
than ever before during the last half
century.

FORMAL APPLICATION

The director of operations of the United
States shipping board received from
Senator Underwood and Representative
Oliver this morning formal application
for preferential coal rate of $3.50 from
Mobile to points south, including Cuba,
Porto Rico and the countries of Latin
America.
On request of the Alabamians, Mr..
Taylor agreed to render decision i'm
mediately and if favorable instantly to
publish and promulgate the rate. Neces-
sity for haste was impressed by the
Alabama members because the promul-
cation of the rate would stimulate gulf
trade, aid the department of commerce
in it's work in Alabama and assure the
operators and miners of a permanent
and prolific market for their products.

MUSIC STUDY CLUB
ANNIVERSARY

Washington, November 6.-(Special)
The additional appropriation of $4,000, 900
sought for Muscle Shoals will be granted,
it is indicated, but only after a bitter
struggle in which republican partisan
ship will express itself
Representative Longworth of Ohio, in
herent enemy of the north Alabama pro-
ject, on which the government has al
ready expended more than SO, 100000, is
sharpening his old battle ak. But if past
history repeats itself, Longworth Will
have to be contented by reiteration Of
his former charges that while great sums
of money have been expended no gun
powder has been produced.
The request for the appropriation comes
direct from the Secretary of War, who
acted by direction of the President. There
can no longer be a question but that the
administration is determined to press
to conclusion the gigantic undertaking in
itiated for war purposes as soon as the
United States became involved in the
! European war. This means that the
great power of Muscle Shoals will event
ually be transformed into current suf-
ficient to light the entire south, and that
from the air will be filched sufficient
heterogeneous products which, made into
fertilizer, will enrich the soil of the south
to that state acquired by the valley of
the Nile.
No intimation comes from official
sources as to whether the government
will operate the plants when they are
completed, or whether they will be
leased to private capital. In the latter
contingency. the Alabama delegation is
on record as stating that a clause in the
contract shan confine the profit of such
capital to a limited and specified mar
gin.
In this way the southern farmer will
be able to acquire very high grade fer
tilizer at a very cheap price. Such pros
pect may be the reason for recent an
rouncement Of sales by farmers of the
northwest of their farms at $500 per acre
and their subsequent removal to south
ern states wherein property may be ac-
quired at comparatively little cost
