TYLER GOODWIN MAY BE
 LAND BANK TREASURER

Washington, October 4.-(Special. )--A. r. Malone of Dothan. treasurer of the Federal Land bank, New Orleans, since the organization of that institution for the interests of the farmers of Alabama Mississippi and Louisiana, has definitely concluded to resign, according to infor- maticn reaching Washington today.
 J. Tyler Goodwin of Montgomery, reg ister for the bank, is said to be slated for the position of treasurer.

ment engaged in efforts to reduce the cost of living, predict with remarkable assurance that the bottom will fall out of prices at any moment In administration circles, as a mat ter of fact there is great surprise that the cost of living has not already hcen appreciably reduced. Such reduction, it is stated to the correspondent of The Aged Herald, is sixty days over due
 It is learned that the administration s confidence is attributable to it's knowl- edge-in which the public has not been permitted to share-that the distribu- tion agencies of the United States charged with feeding European nations are stocked up with supplies sufficient for three months. It will not be neces- sary for the government to ship fooe across the seas within that period. and European countries, it is definitely known, have no money, nor credit, with which to acquire food in excess of ac- tual need
 On account of the glutting of the Flu ropean markets as far as United States production is concerned, authorities in Washington are positive that prices must fall within the United States. This prediction is based on the prom ised excess of, production over demand. rather than on threat of prosecution and actual prosecution of individual profiteers.
 The reduction in living costs as stated, has been expected for 60 days That it's advent has been delayed causes no modification of administration pre- dictions It is stated authoritatively that the cost of all staple goods or ne cessities of life will be reduced at any moment if government fact and figures amount to anything at all--that is, all staple articles except sugar.
 The authorities in Washington do not. expect reduction in the price of sugar.i On the contrary. they would not be sur prised were the price to be increased, followed by the re~~oval of the suoar bowl from the tables of restaurants. The Age Herald correspondent when he inquired as to reason for this, was in formed that the shortage of sugar is due to consumption. The startling fact was developed that the first month fol- lowing nationwide prohibition noted a 100 per cent increase in the consump- ton of sugar, fact not contrary to the prediction of scientists.
 Herbert c. Hoover. former food ad- ministrator, did not take the country as a whole int his confidence follow ing his recent return to the United states. But he made the proper au- thorities aware of the situation, and 1t is learned that the confidence of the authorities is based to a great degree on the revelations of MT Hoover.
 At any rate hope is held out to the people who are now being broken on the rock of almost prohibitive prices

According to Senator Underwood, there is every reason why Alabamians might invest in ships and engage in lucrative business.

BOlshevism Ninety Years Ago

Gustavus Myers, in The Review.
 Bolshevism may appear strikingly~ new to this generation. But it is an old story in the annals of American history. The only new thing about it's present revival is it's name. The essentials of it are antique. Ninety aud nnore years ago they were widely urged in the United States by the so-called communists The American workmen were not only pressed to rise and create system based upon them, but deliberate attempt was made to manipulate the workers organ izations in favor of the plan The American workiugmen rejected the pro- gramme and did so after giving 1t the fullest consideration.
 There were many obvious resemblances between the communist agitation of 1S25- 1884 and the bolshevism of today. Both

The bureau, after dealing with the wa rious individual articles of food, considers them as a whole. How much does Bir- mnghan pay in year for its food? The figures for Atlanta, Birmingham and Memphis are furnished The race be- tween these three typical southern cities, situated very closely to each other, is most uniform. At every lap Atlanta leads Memphis and Memphis leads Bir- miagham.
 As intimated above, Birmingham mer- chants no doubt have the proper expla- nation, and that explanation will be sat- isfactory probably to the people to whom they sell. But there seems no plausible reason why Birmingham should pay 4 cents for prunes in excess of the amount Atlanta boarding house keepers pay for that stable article of food.

PEOPLE COMPLETELY
 REVERSE THEMSELVES

Washington, OctODer 4--Ncpec1dl-J Leiut Col A. R. Brindley, returning from Alabama, where he went to cast ballot for the democratic congressional nominee in the Seventh district, l.. B. Rainey, made the paint that on the issues in yolved in the most recent and the preced-
 ing campaigns the people completely re- versed themselves.
 When the late John l.. Burnett made his last campaign for the democratic nom- nation Colonel Brindley said, "he was taken to task by his opponent. Col. John Luslk, for having voted against decla- ration of war against Germany and against conscription. But MT. Burnett won In the general election MT. Burnett not only admitted that he had voted as charged, but declared that always he would assert himself even if against the
 administra ton, when moved by con- science His opponent. MT. Streit repub lican, ran on platform declaring in fa- yor of everything the President, a dem ocrat. stood for or might stand for. MT. Burnett won.
 Tn the most recent campaign the dem ocratic nominee stood for the league of
 nations and everything the President ad
 vocated. His opponent, c. B. Kennamer,,
 stood against the league of nations and
 everything else the President stood for
 And the people who had defeated MT.
 Streit elected MT. Rainey, although the
 two ran on a platform of practically
 identical blanks.

denounce the professional class. although like the bolshevism of these days, the movement of nearly century ago was led exclusively by professional thkorists. The project of dispensing with technical or administrative skill in the industries was then clearly implied, and the suprem- acy of manual labor then preached is the precise dogma upon which modern hol- shevism bases the fierce demand for "a dictatorship of the proletariat." In these respects, and obviously in many others, the communism of 90 years ago bore striking resemblances to the bolshevist programme. but the world in which it found itself was a very different one from ours, and we have yet to lear& how speedily the present movement will spend itself or find new forms of expressiva.
