GOOD REPORTS FROM
SEVENTH ALABAMA

Washington, August 2S-(Special)
Letters have reached Washington that
in the Seventh Alabama district, all is
well. Washington, because of no word
from the democratic nominee, L. B.
Rainey, was more or less worried. For
Washington wants no republican hailing

Scott Ferris, member of Congress from
Oklahoma, is chairman of the democratic
congressional campaign committee. He
was aware that the Seventh Alabama had
always been doubtful proposition, and
he thought in all probability that a new

SOUTH CAROLINA MAN
WOULD SUPPRESS PAPERS

Washington October 2S.-tSpecial)
Representative Byrnes of South Carolina,
following his unusual speech in the
House Monday afternoon, addressed
letter to the Attorney General of the
United States asking for the suppression
or prosecution of the Crisis and the Mes
senger, negro publications in New York.
In his letter Mr.. Byrnes quoted the
following from the Crisis:
I'VE sing: This country of ours, despite
all it's better souls have done and
dreamed, is yet shameful land.
"It lynches. 1t DISTINGUISHES its own
citizens. 1t encourages ignorance. II
steals from us. 1t insults us.
The congressman declaring that this
land" is synonymous with this gov
eminent" suggested to the Attorney
General that the language was in viola
ton of the espionage bill which makes
il a high offense to speak contemptuous
of the government He requests the At
torney General to take note of the fact
that the language is calculated to STIR the
negroes to renewed attempts at crime.
and to precipitate conditions every
where similar to those which recently OBJ
tanned in Washington and Chicago. AND
finally Mr.. Byrnes requested the Attorney
General to give him notice If the depart
ment held that no laws are available TOT
the suppression or punishment OF sucn
periodicals to the end that he might
earnestly call upon Congress to remedy
the deficiency of the statutes.
While the attitude of Attorney General
Palmer can only be surmised, it is true
that with the exception Of southern mem
hers. Congress heard Mr. Byrnes' speech
with amazement somewhat akin to hor-
ror. The republicans obviously considered
the South Carolinian as daring and as
reckless and as mischievous as were the
members of the Ku klux Khan who,
years ago, saved the southland from ne
gro domination,

LUMBERMEN HANDICAPPED

Tuscaloosa. August &.-(Special) Local
lumbermen are being badly handicapped
by lack of freight cars with which to
get their stuff to market. They COM
plain that all available cars are being
rushed to the west in order to haul the
wheat crop and meanwhile untitled orders
, are piling up and stocks accommodating
in yards in this section. Most of the
sawmills are going right ahead cutting
timber and stacking the lumber as to
be ready to fill orders as soon as trans
portation facilities are available again;
but they are nearly heartbroken at in
ability to take advantage of present
prices, which are juicy in the extreme.
Railroad officials cannot give any con-
ISOLATION regarding an improvement in
conditions, and general opinion seems to
be that so days at least will elapse be-
fore any material relief can be had, IL
