ALL EMPLOYES OF
 SOUTHERN BELL ID FORM ASSOCIATION
To Be Established Along Lines Similar to A. w. E. Work of Organization
 Begins Today
By Associated Press

\ Atlanta, July 7-Formation of an asso- citation of telephone employees through which it was announced employees in all departments of the Southern Bell and the Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph companies in Il southeastern states will bargain collectively with the companies on wages and working conditions, will be begun here tomorrow.
 Forty-eight delegates to represent the 16,Ooo employees of the two companies. which are under one management, have been selected by ballot.
 The association, it is understood, will be established along lines similar to the as- sociation of Western Union employees. be- ing limited to voluntary membership of actual employees of the companies.
 About 25o of the local employees of the Southern Bell went on strike early in June claiming discrimination because of union affiliations, which reports of post office inspectors said was not proved. Many of them are still out, it being nounced that after the Commercial Tel egraphers' Union of America called off it's strike that the telephone employees joined the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and voted to con tinue the strike Some already were members of the brotherhood.
 The company claims to have restored practically normal conditions, and in an Eouncing the new association the com- pany stated that mo empboye is restricted from joining any other organization he or she may desire.
 The company has refused, however, to deal with it's striking employees through the c. T. U. A. or the I. B, E. w.

 Much significance is attached to the peace treaty when it is ratified by Ger many, as the blockade will be lifted im- mediately, permitting commercial inter course with the outside world for the first time since August, 1914 After the blockade is raised the demand for cot ton and cotton goods is likely to become more urgent in Liverpool and in the United States.
 There is an urgent demand already for cotton goods in America, which are rul- ing firm at the highest levels reached during the war and tending still higher because of light stocks and the presence in the market of very large number of foreign buyers,
 While the weather was showery of late in the eastern half of the belt and south ern Texas, climatic conditions as a whole the past week were more favorable, less rain and higher temperatures, which Is likely to be confirmed by Wednesday S weekly government review, but com plaint of further spread and damage by the weevils is probable.

Ugh! CaIome| Sickens; SaIivates!
 Please Try Dodson's Liver Tone
I am sincere! My medicine does not upset liver
 and bowels so you lose day's work.

You're bilious! Your liver is sluggish! You feel lazy, dizzy and all knocked out Your head is dull. your tongue is coated; breath bad; stomach sour and bowels constipated. But don't take salivating calomel. It makes you sick; you may lose days work.
 CaIomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Call omel crashes into sour bile like dyna- mite, breaking it up. That's when you feel that awful nausea and cramping.
 If you want to enjoy the incest, gen- tlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced just take a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone to- night. Your druggist or dealer sells you g bottle of Dodsons Liver Tone
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-07-08

under my personal money back guaran- tee that each spoonful will clean your sluggish liver better than a dose of nasty calomel and that it won't make you sick
 Dodson's Liver Tone Is real liver med- icine. You'll know it next morning be- cause you will wake up feeling fine, your liver will be working, your head ache and dizziness gone. your stomach You will feel like working; you'll be cheerful: full of vigor and ambition.
 Dodson's Liver Tone is entirely vege- table, therefore, harmless and cannot salivate. Give it to your children. Millions of people are using Dodson's Liver Tone instead of dangerous calomel now. Your druggist will tell you that the sale of calomel is almost stopped entirely here.-Adv.
