PLANS REPORTED FOR PICKED BODY
 ID RUN TEACHERS
Saturday Business Session to Be Stampede Into Af- filiatiOn With the
 A. K. of l..

To stampede the Alabama Education al Association into utilization with tho American Federation of Labor, plans have been made and. the stage set, says H. J. Wnnngham, president of the State Normal College at Florence.
 Plans that have been brought to the attention of Mir. Willingham and other of the older members of the organi- zation, he says, were in effect as fol- lows:
 Immediately following the address of pr. Strayer this afternoon, circu- lars that are said to be printed and ready are to be passed about among the teachers the leaflets dealing with the desirability and benefits of the utilization. but other than the leaflets little is to be said except general dis cussion of incomes and kindred topics.
 This information will be allowed to soak in during Thursday night and Friday, preparing the teachers minds in a psychological way for the grand coup" of Saturday.
 The information brought to Mir Will lingham further outlines a plan to have a picked delegation of teachers known to Dt very muCn Tn laNOr or the dIlll- ation to be present for the final meet ing Saturday
 Usually most conventions start dwn- ding toward their close, and in most eases only a comparative few are pres ent to elect officers pass resolutions and adopt policies.
 With the present convention, follow ing logical developments of such meet ingS, seeing members catch Friday night and Saturday morning trains. this would make the work of the packed delegation easy in taking over and running the final and an-important business session.
 The plans provide for this, accord . hing to Mir. Willinghams informants, and when the stage is set Saturday the afffliators are to take over the meeting through a majority vote and tie up the Alabama teachers as they see fit.
 This matter of affiiation, the teach CTS say, has been discussed pro and con for many weeks, and it is hard to tell which side really has the majority. Many of the teachers, however. in that state funds are added to the support of the schools. consider themselves as semi-state officials and do not think one division of their countrymen, but should be a part of and in affiliation with all Americans.
 Older members of the association Mir Willingham says will watch with | much interest the development of the movement of which they have been told

DELAY ACTION ON
 GENERAL MANAGER
Traffic Bureau Directors Loath to Give O. l.. Bum to Cham
 Der of Commerce

Final action on the proposal to elect O. T.. Bum general manager of the Cham Der of Commerce was not taken by the directors of the Birmingham traffic bu- reau yesterday.
 The directors met and discussed the proposal and then asked for further in- foi nation
 IL is understood that any arrangement that may be made between the two or ganizations will not bring about their consolidation. but they will continue to operate as separate and distinct bodies with one man ass the managing head of both, if present negotiations go through.
 The traffic bureau directors asked for further time to consider the proposal, and in the meantime they will probably put the matter, before the membership of that body before giving a definite answer to the Chamber of Commerce.

APPROVE PLAN FOR
 AUTO BUSINESS TAX
Graduated Scale Seems Satisfactory to Commissioners and
 Dealers

After further discussion, city com missioners and the committee of auto mobile dealers came to a satisfactory conclusion yesterday about auto deal CTS licenses. The matter will be ham died for final action at a commission meeting in the near future.
 graduated scale of taxation was approved. For less than s100000 am nual gross business the license will cost $200. There are six proportionate graduations between s100000 and sl.- 100000 annual gross business, the maximum license costing the dealer $600.
 The same idea, practically, was ap- piled to dealers in accessories only the minimum license for $100,O00 gross an- nual business Is S75 and the maximum for $700 900 or more is $500

RESERVATION NEAR. D. C.. SEEN
AS NEED IN NATIONAL PARKS

national Fairgrounds" new impe-
tus has been given the movement to
establish such a park in the vicinity
Of the District Of Columbia. or In some
other spot that would be accessible
to the people of the Atlantic sea-
board.
At present there are sixteen nation
|al parks in the continental United
States. one in Hawaii and one in Alas
ka, but with the exception of small
area on an island of the Maine coast
there is no such reservation east of
the Mississippi, where the greater
part of the country's populat ton is
found. Extension Of railroad lines
and the universal use Of automobiles
enable thousands Of persons to visit
these parks, but distance to be cover
ed and the time consumed in travel
stand as a bar to hundreds Of thou
sands of persons in the east and mid
die west who have never been the
guests Of their government in this
sense.
Added impetus was given the prof.
ect to establish a national park near
the National Capital at the recent
congress of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution in Washington.
where resolution for tho acquisition
of such a park was unanimously
adopted, with the added suggestion
that it be connected to the city Of
Washington by a national highway.
Because Of the great burden Of the
war debt an immediate appropriation
for such a park is not being urged.
even by members Of Congress most
favorably disposed toward it. But its
proponents are trying to interest the
nation at large in the plan to have
at least one big reservation that tour
lists east of the Mississippi will not
have to travel 900 miles to see.
Proponents of the plan to establish
park in the Potomac valley ask
that at least 100000 acres be acquired.
much of which Is now producing lit
tie or nothing. and be used for az
periments and model purposes by the
Department of Agriculture and other
tracts be put to q similar use by tbs

cratic state convention in North
Carolina on April by a vote Of
5S5 to 1927 adopted plank in its
platform urging ratification. Sem
ator Simmons. leader of the
state, has come forward in sup
port of ratification. not because he
believes in woman suffrage through
federal amendment. but because he
believes suffrage Is now inevitable,
and North Carolina might as well
make 1t possible now as to walt
until other states take such action.
On the other hand, Senator Over-
man has pronounced against 1t.
In Louisiana the incoming gov
ernor, John NJ. Parker. Is In favor
Of ratification, and will use his in
fluence to bring it about.
+ X +
In brief, this is the situation
which confronts the sunragists.
But there are q number OF under
currents that may play an impor-
taut part in determining whether
the women are to vote. There Is
a growing belief. for instance. In
tho minds of some Of the sunrag-
lists that at least one OF the old
parties. and perhaps both, would
like to see the ratification OF the
suffrage amendment postponed
until after the elections In NO
vember. The women's vote Ii
more or less an enigma even
though they now vote in many OF
the states, Better leave well
enough alone and keep the women
ont until the national elections
have been settled. Is what some OF
the republican politicians are
arguing. according to the suf1rag-
;sts Who knows how the women
viii vote II the league Of nations
hecomes a paramount issue in the
campaign?
On tho other hand. there are
considerable number OF people who
ara anxious to obtain some modi-
hcations of the dry law. Many OF
+bam are found in the democratic
nartv as a glance at the election
raturn. in New Jersey last fall
will show, when Gov. Edwards
was swept in on An antf-prohl-
bition ticket.
In REPUTATION OF those suspicious,
however. stand the efforts OF ma
,,onal leaders in both the repub-
,,cnn and democratic parties to
have tho suffrage amendment rati-
hed without further delay. they
are bidding for the woman's vote.
The republicans had the better OF
the argument when they put
through tho Senate the resolution
ADMITTING tho suffrage amend
ment to the states. Hut the failure
Of republican governors to expo
dite tho resolution in a number OF
states has Offset this early gain In
tho Rraces Of the women to some
extent. And now many Of the suf-
fraEists are ready to be kind TO.
the party which gives them the
