Gently, accompanied by ex-Congress-
man T. S. Plowman, president Of the
Bankhead National Highway Asso-
citation, and proceeded to inspect the
various proposed routes in New Mex
leo, Arizona, and California The
commission was escorted by dele
gates from town to town in the vari-
Gus States, was given banquets and
lunches, was extended every courtesy
possible, and was furnished with
maps, data, statistics, and all informa-
ton necessary for the commission to
select the most feasible route from

quirements of the Government and
the Ban4xhead National Highway As
ISOLATION in building the highway
through their respective sections.
The commission travelled over $4,000

thusiastic and very DESTROYS of being

thusiasm prevails along the entire

House Minority Members
 Protest Budget Commission

Montgomery, February H-(Special) Minority members of the house, led by VanDeGraaf of Tuscaloosa, Friday filed ate bill No 4, which creates the state budget commission and fixes it's powers.
 The protest, read to the house by Mir. VanDegraaf, was signed by J. Lee Long, A. F. Smith, N. F. Stewart. w. L. Sher- rod, J. M. Parker, H. l.. Simpson, J. II. Edwards, II. G. Ellis, M. II. Dodson, J. R. Christopher and F. w. Hare
 They protest because the bill is in con flict with the constitution which provides the legislature shall make appropriations.
 TEXT OF PROTEST
 The protest in full follows:
 Whereas, the fixing of the amount of appropriations for the maintenance of government, as well as the making of them, has always been held a legislative function, and as such has played large part in the development of Anglo-Saxon liberty under representative institutions as against arbitrary power and execu- tive encroachments; and
 Whereas, the constitution of Alabama declares:
 Section 42. '"The powers of the govern ment of the state of Alabama shall be divided into three distinct departments, each of which shall be confided to a separate body of magistracy, to-wit: Those which are legislative, to one; those which are executive, to another; and those which are judicial, to another.
 Sec. 43. "In the government of this state, except in the instances in this con stitution hereinafter expressly directed or permitted, the legislative department shall never exercise the executive and ju- dicial powers or either of them. the executive shall never exercise the legis- lative and judicial powers, or either of them; the judicial shall never exercise the legislative and executive powers, or either of them; to the end that it may be government of laws and not of men," And
 Whereas, under every provision of the constitution of Alabama expresses and implies, the exercise of legislative power is to be determined by the vote of ma jority of the members of each house, and even bill vetoed by the governor shall become law, if a majority of the whole number elected to each house shall vote for it's passage after veto; and all the usages and traditions of representative government are opposed to the control of legislation by minority of the mem- bers of the legislature, whether or not in agreement with the executive depart ment of the government, or any part thereof; and
 Whereas, the constitution of Alabama further provides:
 Sec. T. "The general appropriation bill shall embrace nothing but appropriations

TO TELL OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
 By Associated Prfss

Paris, February 14-After reading the draft of the League of nations covenant at the plenary session of the peace con ference this afternoon, President Wilson was to speak on what had been accom- plished by the conference. He was to be followed by Premier Orlando, Premier Clemenceau and other leading figures of the conference.
 The conference will not be asked for the present to adopt the covenant which will remain open for further considera- tic" The friends of the President are highly gratified that the main purpose has been accomplished in forming the constitution of the league before his re- turn to America.
 Friday was one of the most eventful days of the peace conference and the Presidents departure was for time in the balance, pending agreement on the lea que.
 The President was not present when the final result was reached late in the da,. He had attended the morning ses- sion, which passed only six articles. leav- ing 20 uncompleted The President then decided to attend the afternoon session of the supreme war council, leaving Lord Robert Cecil to preside over the league of nations commissoS. It was under Lord Roberts skill and guidance that the final session achieved the completion of it., task at 6:3o o'clock Thursday night.
 The members separated with an out burst of good feeling and congratula. tion after the period of tension through which they had just passed President Wilson went to American headquarters last night and was con graduated heartily on the outcome Of the league plan.

ward peoples. Rather heated arguments developed at times, but these differences also were adjusted with unaninity in the end.
 Various big issues present themselves some of which were skillfully diverted to commissions which are to report after ward to the league of nations, while oth- CTS were rather suddenly disapproved in the light of the development of the plan for the league of nations. Of such was the vexed question of freedom of the seas, which jeopardized the support of Great Britain. It was realized that with a perfect league of nations there would be no neutrals. and that consequently no questions could arise as to freedom of seas ill time of war, while in time of peace equitable relations between na- tions were guaranteed by special pro visions of the covenant.
 over it can be stated that no hard feel ings remained. There was absolute unan- unity so far as the special commission was concerned; that those nations which at first had doubted the efficiency of the project came out of the discussions as it's firmest advocates.
 Looking to the future the special com mission attaches much importance to the provision made for the admission to the league of neutral or late enemy states.

FUTURE FOR THE FARMERS

Undoubtedly the products of the farms and ranches will command sat- isfactory prices, although there may be some price reduction for certain kinds of crops. but wheat and live stock are likely to return to those who culti- vate these products as large profit US they did last year.
 The bankers of the far west report to their friends in this city that the farmers as whole received in 1918 satisfactory returns for their products and if their grains from the cultivation of the lahd and the raising of live stock are as satisfactory in 1919 as they were in 1918. the chances are that the Amer
 ican farmers will he able either great
 ly to reduce or else completely liou- date their ohlirations. They-are like
 ly to find themselves as productive class in a position of financial inde-
 rendence
 The farmers are yet to receive a considerable amount of money for their products of last year which have
