 It was said at the war department to- day that since the ships had been as signed to it by the shipping board, the department only course was to return them when no longer needed as trans ports.
 NO STATEN ENT ISSUED At the state department 1t was said the matter had not been brought formally to the attention of officials there and no statement was forthcoming. | Great Britain has oontended the allo- cation of the eight liners by the inter- allied commission was only temporary 1 and that when the need for the shps as transports had passed, they were to re- vert to the allied pool for permanent ailocation among the allied and asso- ciated powers.
 1 Officials of the shipping board would
 not say upon what authority they were
 acting. It was expected, however, the
 whole question would be brought to the attention of President Wilson upon his
 return to Washington, either by the
 board or by viscount Grey. the new i British ambassador, who arrived today to take up his duties.
 ! Meantime the Cunard Line has been advised by the British minister of ship
 ping to cancel it's plans to operate the Imperator under the Cunard flag next month. The company had advertised ex- tensively that the Imperator would bs operated by 1t in the New York-South- ampton service.

 Senator Bedsoles speech took tho form of resume of the work of tho 1919 legislature, in which he called attention to the constructive legislation enacted for the people.
 With pardonable pride, MT. Presi- dent, we may review the work of this , body and recount the accomplishments attained" said Senator Bedsole. For, as Alabama moves onward, forward and upward our labors here stand out as many mile stones along the road of progress. But, most prominently among these are the provisions made to fur nish the children of our state with better opportunities for preparation fol citizenship, provisions for Sending them forth with trained minds and healthy bodies. Indeed, in the matter of edu- cation, and of health we have taken the e most forward step in the history of our state.

Those child welfare laws which heretofore have borne little relation one to another, we have made to harmonizeN and, in turn, created a department for their administration The programme of this department rev. olutionizes the states procedure in the matter of the welfare of it's children, and in its last analysis, in Christianity and in action.

Thomas, "is that if he will now say to us officially himself, not influenced or intimated by any one else if he will say as head of the state, that he IS prepared to concede the same principle to all railway servants. then the strike can cease at once
 official pronourcement from govern ment sources and bitter rejoinders from the railway executives, coupled with the attitude of the press, which is largely with the government, has surrounded the strike with a decidedly political atmos- phere. The general feeling as expressed by the newspapers in the present strug- gle is a test between the relative power of the government and of the organized working classes.
