WOMEN WILL VOTE
 FOR PRESIDENT Mrs. McNeel Talks of P0- litical Outlook and Pre-
 diets Ratification

Mrs John D. McNeel, recently elected national democratic executive commit teewoman from Alabama, arrived yes terday from, New York, Philadelphia and other eastern points. where she has been visiting for the past two months. She declared her selection as commit teewoman from Alabama was a great surprise to her and she knew nothin 2 about it with the exception of what she had seen in the papers.
 T appreciate the honor conferred on me- said Mrs. McNeel "and will serve the state to the best of my abil- ity. I am expecting Mr McNeel and the rest of the Alabama delegation home Sunday and will then be able to ascertain\ the facts regarding my ap- pointment"
 Mrs. McNeel stated she was confident that the women would be given the ballot in time to vote in the Novem- Der election, as she expects Tennessee and North Carolina both to ratify the Susan B. Anthony mendment
 Already thirty five states have rati- fled she said, land we only need one more to give us the ballot. We feel sure both Tennessee and North Caro- lima will ratify, thus allowing the women to vote. I don't think that even the worst enemies of suffrage think the issue is lost, for they must real sooner or later. There is no limit as to the time allowed for the ratifica- ton, the amendment being indefinite and holds until thirty-six states ratify.
 We had little hope of Louisiana rat flying as the suffragists there are di vided, some of whom are still work ing for states rights"

HOT WATER BOTTLES FILLED WITH LIQUOR SEIZED BY OFFICERS

H. J. Salser, who lives near Irondale, is an occupant of the city jail charged with violation of the liquor law.
 Jake McGill and Bob Patton, members of the local police purity squad, arrested him late last night for jumping off a train into their arms with three suit cases filled with corn liquor.
 It happened this way. Patton and Me- Gill were scouting around in Woodlawn in the wee sma' hours just to see what they could find.
 Patton decided that one of the tires of their automobile had suddenly flat tened out. so he got out to investigate. McGill did the same thing.
 While they were studying the situa- ton, a train came along and they turned around to watch it pass A second later a suitcase fell at Patton's feet
 Patton became interested and decided to investigate. McGill looked up to see where it was coming from and saw a man jump from the train with suitcase under each arm.
 McGill held the man while Patton in vestigated the contents of the three suitcases. Each of the suitcases was filled with half gallon hot water bot ties filled with corn liquor. Ten gallons in all.
 His trial will come up Monday.

Has Not Given Up Project
That Once Failed When FL

Comingl Delayed, but cominsi
William Jennings Bryan in a multiple
reel movie Staying the Demon
Ruml"
Bryan has not turned away from
his ambition to act for the movie
camera and take a Bryan share Of
the profits. He took pains TO cor
rect in a statement from Washington,
made public to-day, that there were
any grounds for a loss Of interest in
the project started by G.. r. Dalton
and Edward f. Goltra Of ST. Louis.
Golthra Is Bryan's friend who has
been involved in the investig 60 ton Of
the propriety Of the refund Of $4,000
by the Government Of penalties i'm
posed on the Hostetters Bitters Com
pany for violating the revenue laws,
Bryan agrees with J. Stuart Black
ton, the movie producer, as to the ar
rangements first made regarding the
film showing how the battle for Pro-
hibltion was won under Bryan 8
leadership--except as to the financial
division. Bryan said that Prohibi-
tion was an issue when the subject
was first Brought to him and he re-
fused 10 make any money out of It.
Later, whel Prohibition became a
fact, he did work out a plan for a
film, he admitted, and stil has 1t.
One of the big scenes he still has In
mind is the spectacle of thousands
of Michigan high school lads taking
the pledge under the spell of Bryans
oratory. This scene was proposed to
BlaCkton and rejected, as was the
rest of the original scenario, for
which Blackton prepared a scenario
in his own studios.
Blackton said he understood Bryan
and Dalton were to take % per cent.
each Of the royalties: Goltra as FL
nancial Manager was to take 10 per
OF the Anu-Saloon League, had a
sentimental II not a financial inter-
est in the plan.
From DR.. Dnwiddie 1t was gath
cred that Mr.. Bryan after refusing to
take any sordid personal profit from
a crusade for the cause was insist
emily urged by friends to accept %
per cent. OF the royalties ana N the
end compromised for 81 IL per cent.
The Blackton scenario was filmed
except for the scenes in which the
Commoner was to act. When tbs
camera men were ready for Bryan.
Blackton was informed the financing
arrangements had all gone wrong.
He said he used six of the nine reels
Z which had been made for a straight
out dramatic production, THE Moon
shine Trail" at n loss of about 800,
1 900 of the $175 900 which ne had in
vested in the Bryan scenario,
But none the less Bryan still In
tends TO have film produced, as he
said in his washington statement:
