COLBY DECLARES
u. S. NOT ISOLATED

Chicago. May 14.-Amcrica posi-
tion in the world today is quite the
reverse of isolation" Bainbridge Colby.
secretary Of state, declared in an ad
dress last night before the Chicago Bar
Association in which he defended the
League of Nations and pointed out that
the United States had been saved from
the actual test of war in defending the
Monroe Doctrine.
The secretary said that such test
had been prevented mot alone by the
respect of the world for martial quail
ties aud our sincere attachment to the
: doctrine. but by the European balance
of power. which has checked tho conf =
dence and restrained the initiative of
the nations which have from time to
time been tempted to call the doctrine
into question.
The great question before the world
Is the recovery of those orderly proc
csses in which the peace aud security of
all nations rest. And question of
even greater moment in the United
States is to determine not only what
our part shall he in the great struggle
Of recovery. but what part we shall
play and what grade of dignity and re-
spect we shall be content with in the
new world order"

90 TONS OF FEED
 SEIZED BY STATE

Montgomery, June 12.-(SpeeiaL)- Ninety tons of commercial feed were seized by the division of foods feeds and drugs of the state department of agriculture during the week because the labels misrepresented the ingredi- ents and prices higher than the prod ucts should bring. J. M. Moore. super visor of. the bureau, Saturday stated that the purchasers would have suf- fered a loss of s477 had the seizures not been made. Two hundred and thirty tons were seized the proceeding week. representing loss of s1,230s3o to the purchasers.
 Through the activities of the depart ment during the week the remainder of ninety tons of commercial feeding stuffs were taken off the market and subjected to seizure on the charge of being offered for sale under standards materially below those guaranteed Seventy tons were cotton seed meal, which were found to contain less pro- tein than guaranteed, and which were being offered for sale in Mobile and Gadsden. The remaining twenty tons were mixed horse and mule feed, with the exception of a small amount of chicken feed, being offered for sale in Birmingham at materially shorter weights than claimed by the labels. x Supervisor Moore said the campaign would be carried on until all dealers see that their commodities meet all guarantees represented by the labels.

Hoover the Silent

Clinton w. Gilbert in Leslie's.
 He strikes you as shy, simple, frank, very little of an egotist, no self-adver- tiser, one who takes little thought of his speech and how 1t should be clothed :: a rather silent man, not so silent as Grant was, perhaps, who does not speak except when he has something to say, and when he does speak does not fall into the ruts of speech that most of us fall into, but says what he has to say in the fresh, highly personal way of one who has seen, acted and thought for himself
 For this very reason. perhaps. his newspaper conferences in Washington, during the war, were among the best worthwhile conferences held there at that time. Reporters feel that man is big man who takes them into his con- fidence. talks to them frankly, knows in- stantly what he may say and what he may not say. does not dodge. double and equivocate. Tried by their standard, Mir Hoover is a "big man" He always knew his subject, and when he got through talking the reporters always knew a great deal more about 1t than when he began. He has the silent mans gift of saying the essential thing In the essential way. Small talk not being essential MT. Hoover hasn't any small talk. Having had to work his way through college, and fighting his way up to commanding position in the busi- ness world. he probably hasn't had time to acquire any

SHIPPERS RESIST PROPOSED INCREASE
 AT RATE HEARING
Traffic Bureau Is Opposing Rates Asked By Southern Railroads Before In-
 terstate Commission

The south may rest secure that the railroads will not be allowed to raise rates in this section beyond what the law specifies and is fair if the inter- state commerce commission needs it's protest said o. L. Bum. general man ager of the Birmingham Traffic Bureau
 We are not allowing anything to go by default. The Birmingham Traf- lie Bureau, which represents the ship pers of Birmingham, is represented in the hearings before the commission by C. |. Cottrill of Atlanta, general coun- sel of the Southern Traffic League, of which the local bureau is a member.
 The southern shippers take the po- sition that the transportation act ann ply protects the railroads by it's man. date that rates shall net them 512 to per cent. More than this the south ern shippers are not willing to con ceoe."
 saturdays advices from Washing ton mngham Traffic Bureau and other posing the rates asked by the south ern railroads.
 He contends that the southern roads are basing their claims not on the good showing they have made this year, but on old conditions. He says the shippers are willing to concede fair rates, but not the rates that are asked
 It was shown at the hearing before the commission that southern roads hao earned net profit of $400 per mile during the first quarter of the year, while the northern railroads had lost about as much. The southern slippers contend that the rate ad- Vances accorded the southern and northern lines should be based respec- lively on their earnings and not be the same in both cases.
 w. M. Caskie of Montgomery argued that the southern lines were asking twice the increase to which they wera entitled, and he also pointed out the very favorable showing of earnings which the southern roads had made this year.
 MT. Bum is confident that the case of the southern shippers is in good bands and that every effort to have rates raised beyond a fair return will be resisted by the prompt presentation of data showing why such rates should not be granted.
 MT. Cottri1l went to Washington with ample data furnished by the Bir-
 raingham fTraffic bureau and other members of the Southern Traffic League, and, as he asks for more data 1t is immediately forwarded to him.

London. May 24-M. Paoli, the general secretary of the French prefecture of police, who has just died of sleeping sick ness. was known the world over as the guardian of kings" He was attached to all royal visitors to France as guide and protector and held forty-five decorations and gifts from royal personages
 Queen Victoria regarded him as an in- innate friend He was her constant com panion when she went abroad, and. as my old and dear friend" she specially invited him to her diamond jubilee fes- tivities.
 Her majesty had a heart of gold" he said once Many and many time warned her that such and such an appeal for charity was thoroughly undeserving but usually she would reply with a smile
 "Paoli, 1t Is better to make mistakes at times than to refuse to aid those who say they are in misery"
 At Nice, in 1896, the queen called Paol to her and said, T have always regretted not being able to repay the many kind nesses you have showered on me by giv- ing you decoration. As English decora- tions may not be given to foreigners, 1 nave created a new order, and you are the first foreigner to receive it." With that the queen handed her guardian the Cross of the Royal Victorian Order
 The late King Edward had also a deep affection for M. Paoli. When Paoli wrote his Memoirs the king corrected the proofs with his own hand, as he had done previously when Paoli wrote book as tribute to Queen Victoria. Once at theatre in Paris Paoli pointed out to the last moment felt a sudden pity for the murderer. Not that one-the otheri' he cried, and selected the public prosecutor

FaUorites Had Their Machines Wrecked by Monkey Wrenches

 It did not proceed without bitterness and rancor, either. When you have a nice little machine that is going to pile
 up delegates like Hoe press piles up
 newspapers, you don't care for the fel-

 tween the wheels. The delegates are going away from

 humanity much in the bye and bye Hot weather and lack of direction did
 most of 1t. The ancient division over

 from misdirected monkey wrenches will
 heal. Maybe agaln the result will make
 the election safe for democracy. Anyway
 all the forward-looking men are looking
 backward with mean looks, and a lot
 of them are mad clear through. The

 At the station an old woman mistook the king for porter, and made him fetch her basket of vegetable sand get her ticket. She could not understand why he refused her tip.

 In the vestibule afterwards Paoli paid his respects to King Leopold.
 "We have had parterre of kings this evening, sire" he said. Did you know that the King of England was also here?"
 "Indeed!" replied Leopold with feigned astonishment. q should have liked to have shaken hands with him had I known"
