ALICE PAUL GIVES
 SUFFRAGE STATUS

W asillIi5 ton, July lv.-topeclaD. - Alice Paul, the braIn Of the national woman's party, the militant wing of the sufIfa- glsts, believes that the President change of front on the question of suffrage Is directly attributable to picketing.
 In the conversation with the represent ative of The Age-Herald, Miss Paul had reached the topic of 'pickeung when she was asked what in her opinion had
 put the President through the various stages ranging from an opponent of sui frase to supporter of the constitutional amendment. She answered: '"fhe con centration of attention on his giaring lh- constituencies"
 | She meant that the President was in consistent in asking AmerIcans to dle I in support of ''seif-government and the right of self-determination, and Tn denying other Americans the privileges he demanded for Europe. That the con- centration of attention on his inconsis- | tent position was brought about as re-
 suit of her policy of picketing, Miss Paul feels certain.
 The leader of the suffragists of the fighting or militant school has strong hope that the Anthony amendment VIII be ratified so that the women of the lcountry may vote in the coming Novem- l Der elections. She declares that 33 states jare at present absolute certainties. Eleven l of these Wisconsin, Michigan, kansas. I New York, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania. 1 Massac achusetts, Texas, Iowa and Missouri, I have already ratified the amendment. 1 Miss Paul states that the following have
 guaranteed to ratify-that many of them
 will ratify by means of an extra session If that extreme be necessary = Arlzona' | Arkansas, California, Colorado, ldaho' Indiana, Maine, Minnesota, Montana l Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Okla- homa Oregon, Rhode Island, South Da-
 kota, Utah, Washington and wyoming. | Were the three states, the legislatures | of which are now in sesslon-Georsia' d. Alabama and Virginia to ratl1y the ! amendment, Miss Paul states that the game would be bagged. For. accord- l ing to her polls, ratification by Mary 1 land. New Hampshire and Vermont IS assured.
 In 1920, Miss Paul says, the three state
 needed, if they still be needed by tha'
 time, will certainly be gained. The ies-
 islatures of Kentucky, Louisiana' New
 Jersey. South Carolina and Mississlpp' meet in 1920, and the first three namea' | Miss Paul ayers, will ratify. The lesis- llatures of Florida, Delaware and Norti' Carolina are not in session prior 10 ls.l

TREATY DEBATE IS
 STAGED IN HOUSE

Washington, July 1o.-(SpeciaD. The hree big fights on confirmation of ap- continents, promotions and re-appoint- nents by the President will probably be lecided shortly after the Senate recon yenes and recovers from it's excitement yer the President5s defense of the treaty f peace
 In all probability, Mitchell Palmer will 1e confirmed as Attorney General. The republicans. in the beginning, opposed confirmation. thus breaking a precedent of 100 years standing. it never having before happened that a Senate stood in the way of President naming the mem Sers of his cabinet. The opposition was based on the contention of Senator Ere linghuysen that Mir. Palmer, as alien property custodian, sold German owned property at figures greatly less than the property was worth. At the hearing or the matter, it appeared that the Freling- huvsen case fell down completely.
 There is no question but that John Skelton Williams. to be comptroller or the currency, will have great difficulty in securing confirmation. It seems that many bankers of the country are urging their representatives in Congress to pre- vent his success. These bankers have filed many bills of complaint and to each bill.

Williams was by Wade Cooper, a Washington banker He alleged that MT Williams permitted the payment of the Georgia Florida railroad by the federal railroad administration of money in the form of guaranteed profits in excess oi any profits the railroad had ever earned He added that a relative of MT. Williams is a receiver of the railroad, and that once MT. Williams himself was president of the railroad.

Tuscaloosa, July 10.-The board of di- rectors of the Tuscaloosa Board of Trade did not elect any one of the 1s applicants as secretary of that body at the meeting
 last night, but passed the matter over
 without action, deegating the task of
 studying the credentials and sizing up the applicants to a special committee Of which the president of the organization is member Today it became known. not officially, that a selection had been made and that Morgan Richards, for a long time secretary of the Selma Chamber of Commerce had been decided upon as the new secretary of the Tuscaloosa or ganization.

 One of the large lumber companies up
 the river from Tuscaloosa is shipping
 quantities of lumber down the Warrior
 to Mobile for export and is limited only
 by the lack of tonnage available. 1t IS
 reported that the lumber shipments by
 river are at a saving of s1.25 per thou
 sand as against the all-rail shipments.
 and that as soon as more equipment for Icarrying lumber down stream is available, the amount of lumber from this district which will travel to tidewater by the Warrior route will be greatly increased Lumbermen say that as soon as ships become available at Mobile for the trans | port of lumber overseas in larger quan- 1 tity, the demand will be greater for ex- | port stuff in the Tuscaloosa district.
 l One of the new industries of Tusca- | loosa made it's first shipment today | when the II. M. Blanchard Manufactur- | ing company shipped a carload of auto- ! mobile spokes.

Washington, July 1o--(speciaD President Wilson, in his address to the Senate today, did not follow the urgent request of his enemies that he aban don rhetoric. He declined to discuss questions of constitutionality raised by Senator Knox, of entangling alliances raised by Senator Borah, or the more picayunish objections effecting racial colors and religion raised by Senators Reed and Sherman.
 For that reason. in the opinion of his critics. the President was disap- pointing.
 "He failed to analyze the proposed covenant of the league of nations, they are exclaiming. He lodged the issue He spoke of visions and not of facts"
 It is true that he did. Senator Un- derwood said:

 That is the viewpoint of democratic members of the Senate, who express belief that the people. moved by the Presidents appeal. will force the re- calcitrant members of the upper body sharply to alter their course.
 The President was given spontane- ously hearty reception. a greeting which must have warmed the currents of his soul The floor and the gal leries were packed The Senate smiled and the galleries laughed when Sen ator Borah, the Presidents most caustic critic, arose with a wry face to escort Mr. Wilson to the cham Der. When the President entered his white hair and well-seamed but smiling countenance caused an instant pause which was immediately shattered by great volumes of applause. Every senator stood. the democrats applaud ing and the republicans silent, though hilarious than when they expressed the love of America for bleeding France on the occasion of Joffre' memorable appearance.
 The address of the President
 hinged upon not more than two of
 his expressions. Speaking of the
 regard of European peoples for the
 Ieaepe, he said:
 @They saw it as the hope of the
 world. Shall we any other free people hesitate to accept this great duty.'
 And then, after a pause, he con-
 tiDued:
 "Darc we reject 1t and break the heart of the world.''
 | There was the mingled appeal and l challenge. and it rang through the ! corridors of the Senate with the light i ing effect that stirs the soul. l And then, in more consolidating tone he uttered the most effective passage l of the message: "The only question i. i whether we can refuse the moral lead ership that is offered us. whether W, shall accept or reject the confidepc, l of the world''
