BIG INVESTMENT
 COMPANY FORMED

Demopolis, July 13.-(SpeciaL)- L)-To develop the farm resources of the Black Belt of Alabama 100 of the leading business men of the state have formed the Farmers Land and Investment com pany, capitalized at $1o0.oo0. the ob- ject of which is to purchase suitable tracts of farm land for subdivision into small farms. Only high-grade land well located, will be considered The company expects to make improvements on the land and when necessary helr finance the purchasers. The office oi the company is Demopolis, with sub organizations in Uniontown, Marion Greensboro, Eutaw and other places Each sub-organization will be respon- sible for the development in it's local ity and it is contemplated to carry these ub-organizations into other towns until a large territory is GOV cred.

zled at the action of the army officials at supply depots. He promptly wrote to six of the depots asking prices on the surplus army food, so the people of Tusca- loosa could order and in each case was furnished with lot of documents invit- ing him to make bids" The matter was taken up by wire with Congressman Oliver, who wires that he has taken the proposition up with army officials.
 A later message from Mir. Oliver states that St. Louis and Chicago are the only points at which both meats and vegeta bles may be had, and he suggests that the city of Tuscaloosa send a reliable and trust worthy man to one or both of the places to inspect the stores, and offers to pay the expenses of the investigators
 It is possible that Mayor Robertson will go himself. He is an experienced pro- duoe man and familiar with wholesale groceries, and is greatly interested in the proposition of getting a supply of the government food available for the people of Tuscaloosa
 Meanwhile further advices from Con gressman Oliver with the prices at which the goods will be sold are being awaited by the mayor and citizens who are inter- ested. Much favorable comment has been heard regarding the-interest shown by Mir. Oliver and Mayor Robertson, and the
 
 brought many expressions of appreciation from his constituents.
 The windstorm of Friday night did good deal of damage in and around Tus caloosa. Several of the great oaks, the pride of this city, and one of it's chief attractions. were blown down; one barely missed the residence of Dave Rosnau. With it's great weight it would undoubt edly have wrecked the house and prob ably killed the inmates. On the Hargrove road the storm seems to have been most violent, a great many trees being blown down. Fields of corn, the stalks being sappy and tall on account of excess mois- lures, were snapped off and blown to the ground in tangle which promises lit- tie results in the way of matured ears. X Tuscaloosa druggists are up in arms at the bill introduced in the legislature seek ling to revive the "blue laws and to keep their stores closed on Sunday. Protests are being made to the Tuscaloosa dele gation in the legislature and requests made to fight it with all vigor. The propo- sition receives no support in these dig gings.
 The -oresbyterians have organized a church at Akron, between this city and Eutaw, with 20 members. John s. Bishop and J. W. Stevenson are elders and J. R. Stevenson and B. D. Bush deacons. The church starts out under favorable aus pices and is expected to grow in member ship considerably.

HUGE CROWD HEARS
 DE VALERA'S PLEA
Irish President" Is Given Great Ovation as He Rises
 to Speak at Chicago
By Associated Press


 Chicago. July 13.-An audience of 5000 persons. it was estimated today. heard Eamonn de Valera, president of the Irish republic" appeal for aid and recog- hilton of Irish independence. It was an open-air meeting held at the Chicago Ma tional baseball park where all seats were taken and nearly all available space occupied.
 Mir de Valera, when he rose to speak, was greeted by a demonstration that lasted 31 minutes. A soldier in a Cana dian uniform led the cheering. Some of the spectators hissed the names of Presi- dent Wilson, Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain and Sir Edward Carson, Irish unionist leader, but were stopped by persons on the speakers platform.
 Frank P Walsh and Edward F. Dun ne, members of the delegation sent by Irish societies in America to present to the peace conference a petition for set tIement of the Irish question, and Mayor William Hale Thompson of Chicago were other speakers.
 Mir. Walsh referred to Premier Lloyd George as "the trick mule of Great Brit ain'' whose actions, he said nobody could forecast
 Resolutions that Congress be urged to recognize the Irish republic as now es- tablished." and to establish trade rela- tions with Ireland for the benefit of American commerce and labor, and strongly opposing the league of nations were adopted.
 MT. de Valera opposed the league on the ground that it would prevent the Irish from receiving outside assistance in obtaining freedom from Great Britain.
