H|STQRICDAPHNE ID STAGE PAGEANT ON
 STATES NATAL DAY
TOmbs of Dead and Piles of Broken Brick Now Mark Site of Ancient Rival of
 Mobile Port

Eobi1a. May f7.-(Special.l-Gr inter est in local history has been aroused in the state by the visit of the Alabama An thropologcal- society to the site of old Cshaba, the first state capital, and the announcement at the same time that the spot where the statehouse stood before the seat of government was moved to Tuscaloosa will be marked during the present summer as part of the centen- ary programme of the Alabama centennial commission.
 Former State Senator H. H. Holmes, vho has recently been reappointed as president of the State Normal school at DaphHe on the eastern shore of Mobile bay, nearly opposite Mobile, has called attention to the fact that the old village near Daphne and the ambitious seaport of Blakeley also are worthy of study dur ing the centennial year. Mir. Holmes said;
 "The old village, just north of Daphne, and Blakeley, once the rival Of Moolie as Alabamas s seaport, afford as 1ne study as does Cahaba of the buried hopes of men who founded cities that perished. The village, once proud little city with paved streets, white residences and high ambitions is now a forest of oaks, pines and semi-tropical exotics.
 RUINS MARK ANCIENT SITE
 "Only the tombs of the dead and scat tered piles of broken bricks remain to mark the site Oi BldkeleV, d lew InileS further north, where 100 years ago there stood an important place which was later absorbed in much the same manner that Selma absorbed Cahaba, for Judge Peter Joseph Hamilton, in his Colonial Mobile, says of Blakeey, Tt may be like St. Stevens, some of it's houses now face Mo- bile streets For it's remaining buildings are in ruins and it's site is desolate, while from it's oaks and pleasant heights one can see the spires and electric lights of the older city which it sought to sur pass.
 The State Normal school at Daphne will celebrate the anniversary of Alabama s admission into the federal union on or about the states natal day, December IA, with an historical pageant, which MT. Holmes promises shall be both spectacular and historically accurate. The scene, overlooking the shore of Mobile bay. is ideally situated for the presentation of such pageant, and the students and faculty have demonstrated marked ability in the staging of such events. Mobile and Baldwin counties are expected to cooper ate to make it the success which its his torical importance deserves. for the his tory of Mobile and the cities upon the op- posite shore of the bay and rivers have been closely connected throughout their 200 years and more as the colonial begin ming of Alabama

TRIUMPH
 FOR BRITISH WOMEN

London April 19-British women have scored a new triumph by securing admission to the institution of naval architects as members. The vote taken bv the institute on the question was 491 to 220.
 When the result was announced, Sir William Smith moved that women be admitted as members on equal terms with men. Sir Alfred Yarrow, in sec onding the motion, mentioned the, case of women joiners who were employed A short time ago in building de- stroyer. He said they made mag nificent job of it" and the boat was accepted by the admiralty without a demur. He mentioned another boat which recently attained speed of 3S.6 knots
 That" said Sir. Alfred. ifs the best speed yet attained. The lines of that ship were determined partly by a young lady named Keary.
 The motion was carried.

FEDERAL CONTROL
 OF CORPORATIONS

New York, May 17.-(Special l-Ten years ago some of the leaders in the Standard Oil company ventured to recommend that the statute be so changed as t permit federal incorporation of com panies which did an interstate as well as international business. About that time George H. Perkins in an address before the members of Harvard university sug- gested that if it were possible to incor- porate the larger corporations under fed eral statute Sand then to provide for a competent governmental board which would have authority to regulate and oversee the operations of the corpora tions of the7S9 OtETAo ItETAOuCHRD tions much of the difficulties as well as friction which had been oecasioned by the CT cation and operation of large combin- ations into unified systems would be elim- mated.
 Earlier, D. H. Hartman in private had spoken to his friends of the expediency of federal incorporation of the railroads. at least those whose rails crossed state lines.
 When these suggestions were made they were not IdNofapIY received. suspicion
 was aroused lest the managers of the
 large corporations and of the railroads had concealed under the proposition that federal incorporation be established some plan which would work to the detriment of the public

WHAT IS THE REGIONAL PLAN?

The SO-calleQ reSlOndl pldlis GA ecutives say, means the unification or various heretofore independent railroad systems within certain region into a single combination. It has been demon .strated over and over again, and has in fact been demonstrated by the govern mental operation of the railroads, that ratification of this kind makes possible great economies in management, better facilities for the trans-shipme of freight and does not involve the necessity for increase in rates. Should there be such necessity that would be due to other reasons.
 Howard Elliott, who is now regarded by many as the leader or among the three or four of the ablest leaders in railroad op-N eration ,and who possesses profound un- derstanding of the relation of the rail- roads to the public and of the public to the railroads, has devoted every moment he could spare from his important duties to study of the question, and has Tn many addresses, especially one delivered Ia few days ago, expounded his under standing of the railroad situation and the manner in which the railroads can best be utilized to serve as the great arteries of commerce. What he has said and advised may be the basis of expected ac- tion by Congress.
 MT. Elliott in speaking this morning or the proposed regional system. used New England to illustrate what is meant by' that. New England really should con stitute with certain notifications and additions a single region or zone. The hauls of it's railroads are short There is duplication of service and therefore waste There is not one great and ade- uuate terminal, but several. But in or de rto make of New England an ideal regional system it is in MT. Elliotts view essential that the New England system be brought into association, even com bnation, with one or more Of the great trunk lines which run from the west to the Atlantic seaports. If this can De ac- comnlished not only considerable econ omy in operation can be secured, put aiso greater efficiency, greater speed in hand ling the traffic and therefore greater convenience to those who make shipments or who receive shipments. What is true of New England is also true of other regions in the United States Probably the south would have two regions, one which might be called the Mississippi val lev region and the other the Atlantic re zion. It would not be a difficult mat fer fo apportion the different regions Tn the United States. The impression IS very strong that Congress, if it legislates at all. will so amend the existing statute as to proyide for the establishment Of the regional system Ten years ago this would have ben inconceivable. Then again there is hope that Congress may De per suaded to enact a statute which will per init the railroads to take out Iederdi charters. If this were done substantially all of the conflicting state regulations, some of which have greatly embarrassed the railroads, can be done away With

ADMINISTRATION OF ROADS

In fact the taking over by the gov ernment of the American railroads and the attempt to operate them as single system have taught several lessons. eirst of all it has demonstrated apparently to the great body of the American people that government ownership, especially by nation made up not only of the fed eral government, but also of sovereign states, is doomed to disaster. But on the other hand the administration by the government of the railroads has tended more and more to the belief that the best method of operating and directing Amer ican railroads will involve combination, the establishment of the regional or zone systems, under private management sub ject to strong and adequate governmental regulation.
 It would not have been deemed possible at the time President Wilson was first inaugurated to persuade Congress so to legislate as to perfect railroad combina-- tions in the form of regional systems. Nevertheless something of that kind was recommended IS years ago by Edward H. Hartman after he had demonstrated the value of combination within certain reoionse between railroad companies.

WHAT CONGRESS WILL DO

The railway managers are beglnnlng to be persuaded that the time is not distant when Congress vii lauthorize the return of the railroads to their owners. But in addition to doing that Congress, 1t is also believed, will authorize the estap- lishment of regional systems. Some Of those who have been foremost in their criticism of railroad management, as, for instance, the brilliant senator from Iowa, Mr. Cummings, are now understood to be in partial if not full agreement with those who advocate the speedy restoration or the railroads to their owners Sc also the impression is gaining ground that as soon as possible after the new session of Congress begins the railroad question will be taken uo and it will speedily be discovered that majority sentiment Tn Congress is in favor of the regional plan and possibly may be found to be in favor of federal incorporation. The railroad situation as it exists today is chief among the obstacles that <and Tn the way of the great prosperity that the na- ton should command.

"Must Share Responsibility"
NJ Theodoroff spoke for fifteen min
utes. pleading that the Bulgarian peo-
pie were not responsible for the war,
but that the Bulgarian government
had thrown the country into the
struggle. He realized, however, he
said. that the people must share the
responsibility.
'They are willing to do co." he said,
but they feel that in no way have
they committed such a crime as will
compel them to accept servitude.
King Ferdinand and Vaseil Rados-
lavon, Bulgarian foreign minister in
1914, were blamed for Bulgaria's entry
into the war by N. Theodoron. He
said the Bulgarian people did not ap-
prove Of the German alliance, which,
he declared, came to them to them as
q cataclysm," but they realized they
must accept part Of the responsibility.
I'VE have committed faults" he said,
''and we shall bear their consequences
within the bounds Of equity. but there
il q punishment no crime can justify,
and that is servitude."
