Intervention in Mexico
Foreseen by Washington

Washington, Aug. 11.-Intervention
IN Mexico is regarded asone of the
most probable results which will fol-
low the investigation of the Mexican
situation ordered by the Senate. 1t is
asserted that Acting Secretary OF
state Polk, in a confidential commu-
nication to the members of the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs, warned
the members that if the truth were
made public concerning conditions in
Mexico and the full extent of the out
RACES suffered by Americans known
Intervention would be inevitable.
Mr.. Folk appeared before the com.
mittee asa representative of the ad.
Iministration, to urge that no investi.
cation be made, and the effect of his
statements was to cause the House
committee to postpone all definite ac-
ton with respect to the matter.

DOG TAKES CAP; STOPS
PICTURE PRODUCTION

Production on the Charles Ray pic
ture at the Thomas IL. Ince Studios,
was stopped for a half day because
Charles Ray lost the peculiar cap he
was wearing in the scenes. The
studio was searched high and low,
but the cap was not to be found. BY
a fortunate coincidence the big out
door natatorium was ordered drain
ed and cleaned. When the water was
pumped out, the cap was found in
ly cleaned and blocked into shape
while a whole company waited. Just
how the cap reached the tank is un-
known, but Charles Ray, having q
suspicion, tied up his dog "Whisk-
ers."

claims vary widely. Yet, the disin- clination of union labor as a whole to support the strike, which is every where apparent, and the undeniable fact that so many plants are still in operation are phases that the general public is aware of, particularly in those towns and cities where the larger industries are located.
 No attempt is being made to deceive the strikers, except by their leaders, who have induced them to fight los- ing battle, with the weight of public sentiment against them and ma jority of union men ready to acknowl- edge that there was no just rause to strike.

* x * How Long Will Alabama Submit to Mob Violence?

o1T7HREE negroes lynched at the
 4 state capital in twelve hours is an ugly record. The third victim was shot to death in a hospital ward where he had been taken after bat tie with Montgomery policeman. There is no sanctuary when a mob is engaged in a man hunt, and the law is a thing to be lightly brushed as de.
 Governor Kilby's announcement that 5 the full weight of his. office will be employed to bring members of the Montgomery mobs to justice was to have been expected from an executive who acted with great promptness and vigor in running down the Bay Min cite lynchers. The governors efforts in that case were so successful, thanks to the assistance of former Attorney General Horace Wilkinson and other officials, that precedent was broken in Alabama-it might be said, in the south. Members Of a mob actually arrested, convicted and punished for their crime, the shooting to death in jail of a murderer.
 But the victim at Bay Minette was a white man. It should never be said that when negro is lynched in Ala bama the authorities are any less vigi- lant in seeking his slayers than they would be if his skin were white.

 Isn't it peculiar thing that some men are very liberal in their considera- ton of others and free in their pralse, but very reticent and modest about themselves?" commented Charlie Abrams. Now. my good friend, George Plaisance. was very genero IS in his words of praise about our re- cent U. c. T. and T. P. A. baseball game. This is all we'll and good and appre- ciated. But I decided to get even and in getting hold of his associate, find out few very, very interesting facts that I doubt if half dozen peo- pie in Alabama are aware of.
 'Basking In his usual modesty, he has never let 1t be known that he holds three sales records made with his firm last year.

Progressive Farming
 And Tractor Flows

1.-TWO or three years ago the tractor 4 blow in Alabama was in it's ex- perimental stage. But its usefulness has been demonstrated and there is no longer any doubt about it's utility. The tractor is great money saver. It can be used to great advantage in field blowing and in working the crops" It easily solves the problem of labor shortage on the farm.
 Any farmer who does not use a tractor is backward, and no farmer should be willing to be placed in that class.
 All the states that are forward going are using tractors. Alabama should have used them on a large scale long before this. The tractor should be the rule from now on.
