Feeling in England That America Should Discard Her Traditional
Alooness and Assume Administration Of Part Of Cap

Is Being Advocated.

LOndon.-"Win America be willing
TO take on some of the German col
Onies or Turkish possessions in the
near East?"
That is question that is uppermost
in the minds of large section of the
governing class of England. Men who
have led British political thought for
years believe that we SHOULD assume
some of the responsibility of governing
the lands captured from the Germans
and Turks" as one leading British
publiclst told me recently. There Is
double reason back of this idea.
First of all, America is an English
speaking nation that can be trusted to
administer wisely and well the desti
MES of a less-enlightened people.
Secondly, sit is only through actual
participation in the responsibilities of
looking after far-away colonies that
America can ever appreciate the true
state of mind of the British people of
all classes, upper middle and lower, on
this delicate subject of empire" it is
stated by several prominent propa

Division of Colonies.
At this stage of the peace negotia
| tons the question of dividing the col
Onies is a matter on which no public
man is anxious to go on record. But
unOfficially the subject is attracting
wide attention Too many interests
are involved TO invite outspOken dis
cussion. There are larger problems
that must first be solved: The limlta
ton of ornaments. freedom of the seas
and above all other subjects, forma-
ton of a league of nations. Once
these are disposed of the colonial knot
will probably be quickly cut.
1t is with implicit faith in the ulti-
mate outcome of these basic affairs
that the intelligent BritOn outlines his
belief that America, if she is to remain
as a leading factor in world politics,
must go into the colony business.
Should such a course be embarked
on by the United States, should we
take, for instance, the administration
of Palestine and Armenia and possibly
some of the former German lands in
South Africa, it would be put on the
same platform that the. best elements
in England accept for india namely,
that sooner or later India will develop
into dominion capable of self-govern-
ment, like Canada and Australia, and
must then be given every freedom to
determine her own destiny.
The same principles would apply to
the subject African states-ultimate
ties that bind to the mother country
must be cut, or allowed to remain.
AnswerabIe to League Of Nations.
Through all the days of American
dministration-and it Is admitted
many of these days would prove irk-
some and expensiye-America would
be answerable to the league of nations
for her actions in the territory held in E
trust, just as the other European pow I
ars, England, France and Italy, will be t

peoples.
In brief, intelligent England is rec r
,mm ending for world consideration a $
lew form of colonial control, with the G
ceiling that the world has Outgrown b
he days when a Spanish tyrant could a
errorize Cuba, or brutalized Ger t
nan government could commit atroci- a

NEW STEAMER LINE MAY REGAIN TRADE.
Rail Rate Too High for Local Pipe to the
 Pacific

The Pacific Navigation company has under consideration the establishment of a line of steamers to run between Mobile and Los Angeles.
 It is stated that sufficient cargoes are available for shipment from the Pacific coast to the southeast to mako the ser vice in this direction profitable, and that if reasonable amount of tonnage is available for the return trips they will put on the steamers
 The Warrior river development com mittee has the matter of steamship ser vice between Mobile and the Pacific coast before the emergency fleet corporation They have asked that these steamers be put as part of the Warrior river development programme, pointing out that Birmingham products, especially cast iron pipe and some other iron and steel products, have had in the past good mar kets on the coast but with the present high rail rates they are shut off from that trade.
 The rate on east iron pipe from the middle west is several dollars a ton less than from Birmingham and no hope of relief in this respect is held out until water transportation is afforded With the development of navigation of the Warrior river and a steamship line from Mobile to the Pacific coast all of this lost trade would be regained and other trade won.
 The present advantage the central west has over Birmingham in the matter of freight rates to the coast would be more than offset by the all-water rates

The reports, made public Wednesday, were the largest number ever submitted. The inspections were made >by John D. Adams, deputy inspector.
 Brief excerpts of the reports follow;
 Marion county: This is practically new jail and conforms to the require ments of the law" The heating system has been permitted to deteriorate.
 Winston county: Tn addition to being the smallest jail in the state, it is also the poorest equipped. It was at one time provided with a crude water and sewer system, but this now is a thing of the past. The jail in many respects was In a bad state of repair; was dirty ana insantary."
 Lamar county: This is an old and al together very poor jail. It is improperly constructed, generally insanitary and does not conform to the requirements or the law" The inspector found that the coun- tv does not own almshouse, put pays slO per month for each persons board He found that both males and females are compelled to sleep in the same room
 Morgan county: Considerable work has been done in the way of, cleaning up and renovating this jail since it was last inspected and at the time of this lnspec- ton the work was still in progress, \
 Walker county: Upon inquiry among the prisoners no complaint was found as to their food, or their treatment. rms is an old iail is poorly lighted and ven tilated. very insanitary and insecure
 Madison county: "The entire jail was in satisfactory condition, from the standpoint of cleanliness. The overhead clustering has fallen off in several places and should be repaired.
 Favette county: While this is small iail. it is ample for the needs of the county. It is the newest jail in the state and represents the latest ideas in iau construction Of the almshouse MT. Adams says the conditions would be better if the city water works would extend its line to the building

Regard Blind as Normal

Life isn't the number of years man has lived. It is the number of experi- ences he has had in life. 1 consider my blindness only another eXperience-and, might say, a very interesting one"
 In such language Sir Arthur Pearson, the famous sightless British publisher, re- veals the philosohy through which he has not only learned to be "a better blind man. himself, but has also been able to make the men of both America and Eng land who have been blinded in the war adopt similar viewpoint.
 Don't call these men blind just think of them as normal men who cannot see, is the appeal>of Sir Arthur in an inter- view in the Red Cross Magazine. Give man something to do,' he continued; that is all that makes happiness in life. whether man has all his senses or only a few. Release the creative impulse the creative energy, let the blinded man know that he can and is accomplishing some thing, and he is fixed. I tell you that our blinded at St. Dunstan's are really finding true happinessi"
 How great a work Sir Arthur has. done through his belief in the possibilities for blinded men to become happy and inde- pendent may be judged fro mthe fact that from St. DunStan's hostel, in England, coco men have gone forth to economic in dependence, while hundreds more are learning vacations by which they may support themselves in comfort.
