 the voters at the general election in
 November, 1920, and if ratified will au-
 thorize the state to issue bonds for the improvement of harbors
 This matter is of especial interest to
 Birmingham in that whatever develop ments are made at the Mobile harbor will to that extent help Birmingham and the Birmingham district. X first class harbor at Mobile will make more cargo space for Birmingham products and
 bring ships from all parts of the world to Mobile to get Birmingham coal. Speaker Merritt, Judge Nandegraaf of Tuscaloosa, and Mir. Orr of Marshall, members of the legislative committee which visited Mobile and New Orleans last spring, told of the great harbor de- velopment at New Orleans made pos sible by state aid. They stated that while Louisiana had issued s15, 900 900 of bonds to pay for these, the revenues derived therefrom had been sufficient to pay the interest on the bonds, all operat- ing expenses, maintenance and a fund of over $7o0 900 has been accumulated to-

EXHIBITS wOMAN's PICTURE

Fitzpatrick introduced photograph Of dead woman, shot at Breckenridge, Pa.
 ''She spoke at one of our meetings, he said When the gumen shot an old man she tried to protect some children with her skirts; then the order was given: Kill this one. too And they shot her"
 GA news dispatch from Pittsburg on August 26 reported the killing of Miss Fannie Sellens, but said she was an or ganizer for the united mine workers and was killed in labor riot near the plant of the Allegheny Coal and Coke company, near Breckenridge, Pa. It did not ap- pear that she was concerned in organi- zation for the steel strke.)
 Pointing his finger at various members of the committee and waving a photo graph, Fitzpatrick said, picket-a man 60 years of age-was shot down in cold blood. Several children, he said, were attracted by the firing.
 This woman,'' he continued, "came around the corner of the alley and saw the children. Then the gunmen ap- peared. She was afraid the children would be shot. She reached down and pulled up her skirts and pulled them around the children in a corner. Im- mediately the gunmen fired and killed her.
 'Who were these gunmen?" asked Chairman Kenyon.

 There was considerable interest here in the announcement that William J. Flyrn, chief of the bureau of investi- gatior of the Department of Justice, had arrived in Pittsburg to investigate the strike situation.
 Although nothing definite could be learned at the local Department os Justice headquarters. it was reported that the strikers were being agitated the steel company officials charge that the strikers were being agitated by radicals and the unions allega- tion that their men were being denied the right of free speech and free as- Semblage.

 BILL PASSES HOUSE

Montgomery, September 25-(Special) The house tonight. by the vote of 52 to %, passed the state constabulary bill, which had already been passed by the senate. This bill authorizes the gover- nor to employ a special force of not more than 10 men to serve under his im- mediate direction and control, to assist him in enforcing the laws of the state with special reference to the prohibition laws The sum of $20,O0o Is appropriat- ed for the use of the governor in paying the salaries and expenses of these spe- cial officers.
 Opponents of the measure contended that there were enough officers in the state now to enforce all laws; that the sheriffs had been given chief deputies, and that the governor had authority to remove officers charged with law en- forcement for failure to perform their duty.

TO AROUSE COUNTRY ON
 NECESSITY. UF RATIFICATION

Washington, September 25-(Special) J The League to Enforce Peace, the presi- dent of which is William Howard Taft.
 is endeavoring to raise s10O,OOO for the
 purpose of arousing the country to the necessity of demanding the ratification of the peace treaty including the cove nant of the league of nations. The committee of the league to En-
 force Peace, composed of George w
 Wickersham, Cleveland D. Dodge, Vance Mccormick, oscar s. Straus and Her bert S. Houston, makes it's appeal in the following telegram:
 'tCrisis at hand: will determine whether
 America joins league of nations or for sakes allies and negotates separate peace with Germany. Vote for any reservation may require re- submission and endanger treaty. Will you join s9 others in giv-
 ing s100 each to League to Enforce
 Peace, William Howard Taft, president,
 for immediate use in arousing country to demand prompt ratification in form that will not send treaty back for negotia- tion and delay? World pacification matter very urgent"
 Although this telegram clearly sets out the purpose in furtherinE which the money will be used, the republican sen ators who oppose the league of nations swear that there is something rotten in
 Denmark.
 Senator New of Indiana, regarding the
 telegram said: "The point I make is that
 since the treaty is now before the Sen
 ate it would be interesting to know just
 what particular disposition is proposed | to be made of so large sum as is called for by these telegrams. just what it is that these gentlemen expected to do with
 so large a sum to be expended in the be-
 half and in the interest of a proposition that is now before the Senate of the United States"
 No one answered the question of the , Indiana senator. Some days ago. how ever Representative Heflin of Alabama,
 speaking in the House. charged that pro-
 Germans and intuition makers were financing the fight against the league. Mir Heflin would probably reach the | conclusion that if selfish interests can spend money to destroy the treaty and
 ''break the heart of the world unselfish interests should be permitted to spend money in hope of acquiring state of everlasting peace.

KILBY'S ACTION FORESEEN

If was known that strong pressure was being brought to bear on Governor hllpy to disapprove the Benners amendment, and the opinion has prevailed since the biE went to the governor that he would insist upon this amendment being strick. en out.
 But for the constitutional restriction preventing separation of the executive amendments the Benners amendment would have been retained in the bill. Several members who wanted to see the Benners amendment kept in the bill voted for the executive amendments un- der the impression that if they were de- feated the entire school code would thereby be defeated.
 School appropriations took up the greater part of the day in the house The University of Alabama. Alabama polytechnic, the nine secondary agricul- tural schools tho Alabama "i~'s' TeHh- nical institute, the Alabama Boys Indus trial school, rural school buildings, State School for girls, State normal schools and all other institutions of higher edu- cation or technical training all received increased appropriations.

 Representative Ireland of Illinois de- clares on the floor of the House that the amount expended by the government for members telegrams has grown from SIS, 900 in 1916 to $10s,000 in 1918. It is not regarded as likely, however, that Congress will enact legislation re- ouiring the members to pay for their own messages. Uncle Sam will still bear the burden.
