MECHANICS KICK
 ON UTILITIES WORK

Washington, March 11.-(Special) ) Organized labor and soldiers so en- ployed have raised a howl throughout the country regarding the assignment of mechanics, drafted into service, to mechanical duties at $1 per day. Since peace exists 1t is felt by these people that the soldiers should be discharg ed in order that they might receive real pay for the same work. It is argued that by holding these men not only constitutes unfair treatment to them, but denies civilians opportunities to se- cure work.
 So bitter became the complaints that Senator F.. D. Smith of South Carolina endeavored to ascertain the merits of the situation. His request for infor- Harris, adjutant general of the army. The statement of the general is given forthwith

 "A large portion of this work is be- ing done by men who prior to their entrance into the military service had not had any practical experience in the various trades and they have been trained since they have been in the army. These men will be able to com

Little Stories of the
 DayFron1 Washington
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

f. Washington, March 11.-(Special-)-Ihe fact that General Pershing cabled to- day that the Rainbow division would be ready for transportation back to the States April l, prompted Alabamians in Congress, with no more success than for merly achieved. to urge Secretary Baker to promise a parade for Birmingham and demobilization of the fighting Fourth in Montgomery.
 The secretary's reply was identical wlth g that of some days ago. He stated un- that the Fourth would be demobilized in Alabama, preferably, though rot certainly, in Montgomery, pro- vided Camp Sheridan by June is still in existence.
 4a He expressed hope that an opportunity would present itself whereby he might authorize parade in Birmingham The Pershing cable is indicative of the Ram -bows arrival May 1.

AN IMPORTANT POINT

There is no question about the ac- curacy of the statement which was re- cently made by a Chicago banker after a visit to New York that ne found finan- cial leaders in New York not opposed to an association or even covenant whereby the peace of the world might be maintained but they are in doubt about the propositions as it now stands before the Paris conference. One of the req sons for this doubt is to be found in the apprehension that at some time the United States might be seriously embar- rassed if it were to attempt to collect a loan made to a foreign nation None Of those from President Wilson all along the line who have spoken of the con templated league, either for or against it. have referred to this consideration, which is certainly entertained by leading American bankers.
 The presumption is strong that other nations of the league will rely upon the United States for large advances of money in addition to moral and even military support. Suppose then that the United States lends to some one of the nations millions, or any amount, large or small. When the time comes for pay ment the nation might say We canno' pay this money. you will have to wait Instead of being able to take measure to force payment the United State would be compelled to make an appeal t the executive or other authoritive bod of the league. That body might say, an undoubtedly would, that nothing must \ done to collect the debt The only thin the American bankers could do would be to wait patiently until the nation which is our debtor confessed that it

BRYAN AND CLARK
 AGAINST THE LEAGUE

Washington, March 11.-(Special) The Age-Herald correspondent is in formed today by senator very close to President Wilson, and an ardent supporter of the league of nations that the President understands that Williams Jennings Bryan and eX- speaker Champ Clark are opposed to the league of nations and that at the physiological time they will take the stump against it's ratification.
 According to the senator, MT. Bryan opposes because it's adoption would scrap the great number of treaties ne gotiated by him while Secretary of State-treaties into which the United States entered with individual coun- tries. These treaties deny the right to declare war until year, following the break" has elapsed.
 MT. Clark's opposition, according to the Senator, is due to the fact that in the leagues constitution as pres ently written, Great Britain will have greater voting strength than the United States, and the United States is denied the right to resist the agres- sions of any nation not member If the league which might raid it's bor- ders or otherwise molest it's peace.
 The senator further declared that the President is not personally welded to all the provisions of the constitu-
 
 that he would be willing to make req sonable additions or subtractions-tha he would have so expressed himself while in Washington but for the tu- mutt precipitated by the bitter par tisan opposition of republican sena. tors.
 The President, according to the sen- ator, is anxious that the people be edu- cated by the friends of the league proposal rather than by it's enemies He wants the people in some manner to express themselves in order that the opposition of republican senators might not have too great weight in the peace conferences. To that end. he has asked great number of his cabinet to take the stump.
 In this "army" of orators ex-Senato- J. Ham Lewis and ex-President Will liam H. Taft will be generals It is understood that during the absence of the President they will direct the cam paigu of battle"

 Furthermore, the feeling seems to in- crease that if we continue to extend large credits to foreign governments this aid will be utilized at first in buying Amer ican products, in that way, of course. maintainging and increasing our export trade. For there is no doubt that the world, especially the European world. will be compelled to come to the United States for large amounts, of raw material and machinery, expecting to pay the manufacturers and the formers out of loans obtained from our treasury depart ment But these raw materials and this machinery will, undoubtedly be used in large measure for the manufacture of commodities with which markets of the world will be sought in competition with American exporters. This question is re- garded as important. It Is, of course, somewhat vaguely stated, but there is reason to suspect that the bankers think that other nations are relying upon the United States not only for commodities but for credit as to be able to enter into successful competition with the United States for world trade.
