 THE O'NEAL-WH|TE
 DEBATE AT CAPITAL
O'Neal Scores Anti-SalOon League, While White Praises Eighteenth
 Amendment
By FRED H. GORMLEY
 Montgomery Bureau The Age H eraId 22I-2 Eirsf NaftouaI Rant QuiIdi,

Montgomery. May -CSpecial)-With Governor O'Neal excoriating the Anti Saloon League, Dr. Brooks Lawrence and all persons who are seeking to maintain the Volstead enforcement law, and Sem ator White calling for the continued pro- lection of the men of the nation, which is afforded by constitutional prohibition, senatorship appeared before the largest audience which has yet attended po- litical meeting here tonight.
 It is estimated that more than 2.00o persons were present during the first part of the debate. The city auditorium was crowded and standing room was at premium
 MT. O'Neal devoted a greater part of his time to his platform in favor of light wines and beer and the removal of some restrictions imposed by the Volstead en- forcement law. He declared that the American nation now is burdened by heavy debts. but that still the enforce ment of the prohibition laws is calling for countless millions additional and that the country, instead of permitting the sales of beverages by license, is faced with the problem of exterminating thou- sands upon thousands of stills now en- gagged in the illicit manufacture of liquor.
 He said 800 stills were destroyed in Madison county in one month, that paid spies and informers are going through out the state, and that In Anniston re- gently when one person demanded to see a search warrant one deputy thrust pis- tol at him and said: This is my search warrant"
 Governor O'Neal devoted some mo ments of his time in criticizing J.. Thomas Heflin, another of his opponents. for the attacks he mas been making on him in the campaign.
 WOULD STOP LEAKS
 Senator White, answering Governor O'Neal, declared that he believed the eighteenth amendment was one of the greatest blessings which has ever come to the nation, and that instead of at tempting to remove any of the restric- tions he will be in favor of stopping any leaks which may permit violations of the law. He said he would rather have the support of the mothers. preachers and public school teachers and lovers of the homes back of him that all the breweries and saloons in the land.
 T would rather have the support of pr. Brooks Lawrence than the support ot Charley IeWls ne continued. l Wouio rather have the support of Dr. w. B. Crumpton than the brewers and distill- ers''
 He analysed the statements of Cover nor O'Neal, and after discussing them and comparing his support of bever- ages containing a small percentage of alcohol with the divergence of opinion of other states as to the quantity of alcohol which should be used. he turned tcword Governor O'Neal and asked:
 'How much kick do you want, Gov ernor?"
 He charged that Governor O'Neal at a convention in 1909 promised that sa- looms would not return if the constitu- tional amendment was defeated, but de- clared the issue was states rights, rather

 THE north has begun timely realiza-' A tion of the strikeless character of the southland, that of the Birmingham district in particular. ~ There have been some strikes here, but they pale into insignificance in effect compared with what happens when the1 tens of thousands of foreign workers in northern industrial centers, easily leds through the channels of ignorance fall victim to the false lure held out by radj. calls.

 Henry Carse, president of the Birming- ham Realty Company, in the annual re- port of the operations of that concern, closes with this paragraph: ~ Tn the year closed, while practically all other industrial districts in the United States were tied up by strikes and labor troubles, the Birmingham district IN- CREASED it's production, and this de- pendability of labor in the district is be- Ting recognized by manufacturers in other sections of the United States as one of Rlrmingham's chief assets"
 MT. Carse is hard-fisted New York financier. Men like that are not easily impressed. What he says of the district hoc OH of him.
 In a recent issue of the Wall Street Journal paragraph in. an item regard ing the recent outlaw railway strike in it's effects on the iron trade reads thus:
 "One effect of the rail strike has been the banking of no less than 55 blast furnaces including a number of mer- chants stacks. Of this number the Youngstown district alone supplied 3O." What happened in Alabama, in Bir- mingham, while these 55 stacks were down? Not man struck The Alabama Company blew in an idle stack. The No. stack of the T. c. l. at Ensley made the startling record of 609 tons per diem. Alabama increased iron manufacture while these other sections produced prac tically none.
 During the steel strike of last fall. when 131 blast furnaces in the north and east went cold, Alabama blew in two addi- tional stacks and increased her iron out- put.
 During the coal strike but for the de- tour of Alabama coal from Alabama to other states, the district would have suf- fered practically no inconvenience. As it was, production of the metals, depend i. ent on iron supply went on as usual.

WOMEN ON FARMS
WORK LONG HOURS
WASTE OF POWER is MENACE TO
NATION, AGRICULTURE DE-
PARTMENT OFFICIALS SAY.
SUGGEST MODERN EQUIPMENT
sand Homes BY Taking Survey
of Average Couties-She
Tells Us Many Facts.

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-The waste of
woman power is one of the greatest
menaces to the rural life of the nation,
according to deductions that special
lists of the United States department
of agriculture draw from farmhouse
survey conducted in the 33 northern
and western states. The survey was
made under the direction of Miss
Florence e. Ward lin charge of ex-
tension work, north and west, states
relations service.
The records cover 1905 farm
homes, averaged by taking typical
communities of the counties in which
the survey was made. Much of the
information was gathered personally
by home demonstration agents, who
are the field representatives of the
United States department of agricul-
ture and the state agricultural college
Need Modern Equipment.
Miss Ward points out, from the
facts shown by the survey that a
reasonable amount of planning and
we'll directed investment in modern
equipment for farm homes would pre-
vent large part of this wastage of
the energy of the nations rural
homemakers. This is serious
matter" she continues, because we
have live national problem now in
working out the economics of country
living in such way as to make them
satisfied to stay on the land and help
build it up.
The survey discloses number of
the reasons why many women do not
find farm life attractive. The work
day of the average farm woman las
shown by the survey, is 11.3 hours the
year around. In summer 1t is 1912
hours And 81 out of each 100 women
have no regular vacation during the
year On the average, the farm wom-
an can find only 16 hours of leisure
during the summer and only "a hours
in winter. Half of the farm women
are up and at work at 5 o'clock in
the morning.
Forty per cent have water in the
kitchen. but the other per cent must
go to the spring or the pump to
bring the water for cooking break.
fast.
Thirty-six per cent help with the
milking.
On the average. the farm woman
has seven-room house to keep in
order.
Seventy-nine per cent have kero.
sene lamps to trim and fill.
Do Their Own Washing.
Ninety-six per cent do the family
washing, about half of them having
washing machines and the other half
doing the work with tub, dashboard
and boiler.
Ninety-two per cent do some or all
of the family sewing.
Garden work is done by Sc per cent,
"a per cent make all or part of the
family bread and 60 per cent have
churning to do.
Eighty-one per cent OF all poul-
try flocks are cared for by women.
One-fourth of the farm women help
to feed and bed the live stock, and "a
per cent of them spend over six weeks
in the year assisting with some part
of the field work. All of this is in ad-
dition to cooking the family meals and
caring for the children.
