 NEXT SEC. OF WAR
Conn. Congressman's Name Ap- pears Among Cabinet Possibilities

Reports from Marion, homo of Pres- ident-elect Warren c. Harding indi- cate that it is more than likely that John c. Tilson. in Congress from the State of Connecticut. will occupy the post of Secretary or War when the new President makes his cabinet ap- pointments. Mir. Tiison has been a member of Congress for several terms, both as representative at large and representative from the third con- gressional district. he was q second lieutenant in the Sixth United States Volunteer Infantry during the War with Spain. thereafter being in com- mand Of the Second Connecticut In- f&ntry. He also served at the border in 1916. His knowledge of military af- fairs Is extensive.
 Other appointments which it is said will be made are:
 Secretary of Statc-David Jayne Hill or Charles E. Hughes. New York.
 Secretary of Interior-George Reynolds or Charles G. Dawes, Chi cago;. or Otto Kahn or Frank Van dorlip, Now York.
 Attorney General - Harry M. Daugherty, Ohio. A

 Postmaster General Win Hays. Indiana.
 Secretary of onterior-George E. Sutherland. Utah.
 Secretary of Labor-John I. Nolan. California.
 Secretary of Commerce - Herbert Hoover. California.
 Secretary of Agriculture - Henry Wallace. Iowa.
 The only doubt concerns the secre- tary of state and the secret9ry of the treasury. For the state portfolio it is thought David Jayne Hill has the call, with Chaples E. Hughes second choice For the treasury post George M. Reynolds, with Charles c. Dawes. Otto Kahn or Frank vanderlip the second choice are picked.
 Hill is regarded as moro likely to be secretary of state than Hughes. who would have to forfeit an enormous law practice; or Senator Knox, who is in i'll health; or Root, who feels he has had enough political honors. Hill has had wide diplomatic experience under Republican administrations.

Want to Insure Protection and Stabilize Price of
 Their Product
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington, March S.-tSpecial 1.-The prohibition commissioner is informed by Atlanta headquarters that moonshiners in Alabama and Georgia have formed trust to protect themselves by paying money to enforcement agents. and to stabilize the price of their product at s2o per gallon.
 Knowledge to that effect was gained by the trapping of distiller who, after hav- ing stated his proposition to an officer in Atlanta, was inxeigled into repeating
 its terms within the scope of dicta- graph.
 Washington is further informed that officers in Atlanta have been permitted by the war department to use two aero planes located at Fort McPherson. in their efforts to locate distilleries in the Smoke mountain district of Alabama and Georgia Such tactics are being met oy very clever camouflage, which many or
 the moonshiners mastered as result or their service in France.
 Moonshining in Cherokee county, Geor- gia. and DeKalb and Jackson counres. Alabama, is shown to be greatly Nn the increase, in which counties. from Feoru- ary 15 to March 15, 1SS stills were oe- stroyed.

M 'ADOO SAYS TAX BURDENT MUST BE
 REDUCED AT ONCE
Says Every Worker Should Have Wages Enough to Provide Decent Stand
 ard of Living
By BRUCE BLIvEN

Copyright 1920, by Bruce Bliven.)
 New York, March 2.-(Special)-Im mediate reduction of the tax burden carried by the American people is one of the biggest necessities now confront ing the country, in the opinion of the Hon. William c. McAdoo, former sec retary of the treasury, and one of the men most frequently mentioned as possible democratic nominee for the presidency.
 While practising, of course, the most rigid economy in government expendi- lures, 1t seems to me that the time has come for substantial reduction in the burden of taxation," MT. McAdoo told me when I called on him the other day.
 ''I think the present generation could with perfect propriety hand on to pos terity the ultimate settlement of a lar ger part of our war debt than mas al- ready been founded"
 Mir McAdoo believes this should be dcne, even if 1t were necessary to raise S1 5O0,O GOO in the next two years by issuing long-term bonds for $750,000,00O per annum, substituting this revenue for a similar sum which it is now proposed to secure through taxation
 NOT AFRAID OF RADICALISM
 It is interesting to note that here is one man in close touch with the adminis- tration who is not alarmed over the growth of radical doctrines in America.
  radicalism as the alarmists would have us believe" MT. McAdoo told me "I do not think bolshevist revolution in the United States is either probable or possible I have too much faith in the stirring patriotism of the American peo- pie and too much confidence in their love of law and orderly processes to be frightened by the reckless talk of an insignificant element of our people.
 q believe, of course, in the firm main tenance of law and order, and for that reason lawless methods when used by majority on behalf of principles I in- dorse are just as repugnant to me as when used by minority on behalf of principles I abhor."
 POVERTY IS WORLDS DISGRACE
 "The strongest indictment of the pres ent organization of society is the povtrty of the common people, which is found in every country today" he said. "Mili- tarism has been one of the principal causes of poverty. I hope the war has really destroyed militarism. The victory

our economic problems because these questions were of minor importance at that time. Now our economic problems
 overshadow our political ones. By giv-
 ing labor a real voice in determining
 wages and working conditions and assur- ing to it just share of the profits aris- ing from faithful and efficient service,
 industrial democracy can be reaffzed-- and with it, will come that understand
 ing. and cooperation between labor and capital which is the best guarantee Of
 industrial peace. Capital will find it's greatest security and profit in such an enlightened policy
 MT McAdoo has no magic formula,
 no patent cure all to offer for the high cost of living.
 The world must get back on basis of
 peace and security before we can hope to have production balance consumption again and thereby restore normal condi- tons and prices,' he declared. I've
 must practise economy, also, in our pri- vate and business affairs, thereby re- lieving the pressure on supply. This will help the situation immeasurably-but it is difficult to get people to do it now that the war stimulus is gone.
 LEAGUE WILL HELP "I believe that the delay in signing the peace treaty and bringing the League of Nations into active operation is one of the chief contributing causes to world chaos. The people will not-and. indeed, l caEnot-go to work until they are guar anteed not only peace but security. In
 Europe today these conditions are only possible if the League of Nations can exercise not merely a strong material power but a great spiritual influence. 1 WOULD DEAL WITH RUSSIA 1 MT. McAdoo would have commercial ln-
 tercourse established with Russia even under her present rulers. "The restoration of civilization in Russia depends on re- sumption of intercourses with the world | We can embargo comm modites, but we
 cannot embargo ideas. Russia has the absolute right to live under any form or
 government she chooses, even if we do

BOARD OF TRUSTEES WILL TAKE ACTON
Will Determine What Shall Be Done With Medical
 Department at Mobile

Montgomery, March 2s.-(SpeciaD. - Members of thb board of trustees of the university began gathering in Mont gomery tonight for the meeting which will determine what shall be done with the medical department at Mobile as a result of the decision of the Amer ican Medical Association to reduce 1t from class IA to class B. The meeting will be held at the executive-de depart ment at o'clock.
 Representatives of Mobile will ask the board to request the American Med ical Association to defer action for a year in order that improvements may be made which will keep the institution in first class. Birmingham and Tusca- loosa will ask that the department be located within their borders. It is prob able the board will be governed by the act of 1915 which leaves the decision of locating the school to it in the event the medical association reduces it from class A.

Nothing Better
 As a Laxative ;
AshevilIe Lady Finds Black. Draught An Effective Rem- edy in Her Family for
 Common Ailments of
 the Digestive Organs

Asheville, N. C.-Mrs. A. K. Jarvis, A Woodrow Avenue, this city, says "I have used and heard of Thed- ford's Black -Draught for years, and I certainly have found it splendid for headache, sour stomach, indigestion and other ills that come from de- ranged liver.
 'My husband and I keep Black Draught in the house and think it is splendid to keep off sickness. have used it in small doses as laxative, and there is nothing better. "Black-Draught is mild liver med icine any child can take it. have found it splendid with them for colds"
 Thedford's Black-Draught has ben- efited thousands in relieving liver ail- ments. It helps to drive bile poisons i and other unhealthful matters out of | the system.
 Black -Draught is a standby in thousands of family medicine chests. It should be in yours. Its use should help to keep the whole family well. Prompt treatment is often half the battle against many ailments. Get some from your druggist to- day.-Adv. NA-Sl

is an empty one if it has not.
 Prevailing discomfort rests upon, the firm conviction of those who toll that they are not getting a fair share of the fruits of their labor. This is true of the farmer as well as of the laborfng men and women who are having hard struggle to make both ends meet.
 A LIVING WAGE
 Every worker should have a large enough wage of salary to provide de- cent standard of living for himself and his family and be able by the exercise of reasonable thrift and industry to lay aside something for his old age. That is not possible today for large numbers even in America We hear a great deal about high wages, and we forget that high prices absorb in many cases the entire increase and more than the fn- crease. It is also true that there is a tendency to regard the few instances where there has been an exceptional increase in wages as typical.
 But let us turn our minds to some conspicuous cases of unoerpayment Look at the poor teachers and minis ters of the gospel all over the land. who perform inestimable services and are the worst paid. It is a grave abuse and a reflection upon our intelligence and humanity to treat these splendid ser wants as we do.
 "In general, the rewards which go to those who do the least to aid in the pro- ductive processes are apnormaliy large. It is our task to seek for a more equi- table distribution This should not merely improve the condition of those who work with their hands. 1t should I include all who contribute to industry, whether with hand or brain. Perhaps 1 it will never be possible to achieve social justice, but we can always work l toward that ideal.

in Alabama. In November, 1919, there were 258,3 an increase of 182, ,059, an increase of more than 250 per cent.
 In November, 1899, the national banks in Alabama had total resources amount ing to S15,945, ,793 In November, 1919, these had increased to S152, ,223, ,000, or 854 per cent.
 In November. 1899, there was not bank in the south with as much as S25,- 0000,000 of resources In November, 1919, there were thirty such banks with resources in excess of S25, ,000,000 Bir- mingham had one of these, and two others with over SIC, ,000, 600 of resources, each.
 A statement given out by the comp troller of the United States treasury shortly after the November reports of the national banks had been made shows startling increases in national resources and depositors of the banks in the south, the percentage of increase exceeding that of any other section in the twenty-year period from November 1899, to Novem- Der, 1919.
 In the former year the national bank resources in the southern states, includ ing Maryland, District of Columbia, Mis- souri and Oklahoma, were only about 135 per cent of the total resources m the national banks in the United States, whereas, in November, 1919, they were almost 203 per cent.
 The comptroller's statement shows that the southern states are well repre- sented among the states that have the greatest increase in dollars during the tWenty-year period.
 The figures show that in l 1919 the total resources of national banks in the entire country were S4,650,355, ,000, whereas, twenty years later they were S22, ,444,- 992. .OOO an increase of 382 per cent
 Tn the southern states the total re- sources of national banks in 1899 were ! S627 O99. .OOO, and in 1919, S4,699, ,598,- 900. an increase of S3, ,972, ,498, 900, or 633 per cent
 Resources in the entire country in the twenty year period increased 3S2 per cent. in the south, 633 per cent, and ln Alabama 854 per cent. These figures show that the increase in national bank resources in the south in the twenty year neriod was 251 per cent greater than the average for the entire country, and that inc rate of increase in Alabama exceeded that of the combined southern states py 221 per cent and the entire country by 472 per cent.
 There are over 19,OOO,000 depositors in the nationalbanks-in the United States, an increase of over II, 100000 in twenty years, the number at present exceeding one in every six of the population of the country.
 They show that Alabama has been growing in population and wealth. and that the people of Alabama are in more prosperous condition now than twenty years ago.
 The resources and depositors in the state banks, which do not report to the comptroller of the treasury, about equal those of the national banks so that the to- tals are something near 50O,O0O deposl- tors and S35O, ,OO0,000 of resources in the state and national banks in Alabama com bined.
 It is likely that the next twenty years will show greater increase in both de- positors and resources than the last twenty. The agricultural industry, which has taken on new life in the last few years,
