NO NEED FOR INTERPRETER
Squaw Evidently Had Not Always

"BIant<et Variety"

We were honeymooning in Arizona
OF course, we had our ever-fafthful
camera with us. On the principal

an old Indian squaw sitting on the

REPUBLICANS WATCH
 ALABAMA SITUATION

Washington, May 15.-(SpeciaD .-Copies Of the Montgomery Advertiser contain ing an editorial demanding an invesu- gation of the recent senatorial campaign in Alabama were received by all the senators this morning.
 Tn addition, certain leading republicans received suggestions from those of their political faith in Alabama that the op- portunity be taken to even up the score by proving that democrats stoop to the same methods which Senator Newberry followed to the brink of the penitentiary,
 The few senators who said anything suggested that the Alabama situation be referred to the federal courts ln VieW or the fact that action is attainable by ref- erence to such courts whereas any con troversy thrust upon the Senate hangs fire indefinitely.
 In this connection, this bureau is able to report authoritatively that any pro- cedure will be welcomed by Senator Un- derwood.
 It is known to be the purpose Of cer- tain republican leaders closely to scan the statements to be filed with the secre- tary of the state not later than fifteen days following the primaries.
 Tn these statements the three senatorial candidates will swear under oath that their expenditures did not exceed sl0,Ooo ch, provided that the expenses of neith- CT did exceed that figure.
 Sensational stories of poodle and bood- ling have poured into Washington since the date of the primary.

CARLOAD OF FISH TO :
 ARRIVE WEDNESDAY
Bay State Fish Company to Sell Fish
 at Prices Set By City

Plans have been made to continue
 the car load sale of fish in the city by
 the Bay State Fish Company. A solid
 car load of fish is due to arrive in Br-
 mingham next Wednesday. and it is
 understood it will be sold directly from
 the car, at Fourth avenue and Seven
 teenth street.
 The city discontinued it's car load
 fish sale several weeks ago. So the
 sale of the fish by the Bay State Fish
 Company is interfering in no way with any plans of the city. Officials of the company promise that the same prices that were formerly charged by the city will prevail also at their car load sales. All city health and sanitary ordl- nances, such as screens, the proper amount of ice and the sorting of the fish, will be observed. officials~of the company say. No orders for the fish will be delivered. The cash and carry system will prevail, and it is expected l that the entire car load of fish will be sold out in a few hours.
 l If the demand for the fish is good | and all of it is sold before any of 1t has time to spoil. officials of the Bay State Fish Company say that they will tring several more cars of the same ll;ind of fish to Birmingham during the ireXt few weeks.

NO INCREASE IN DISCOUNT RATES
 IS CONTEMPLATED
Deflation, Economy, Larger Production, Remedy for Financial Strain, Says
 McCOrd
By Associated Pren

New Orleans, May 15,-Announcement tonight that < no increase in discount rates was at present contemplated by the Atlanta federal reserve bank was coupled with a formal statement by Joseph A. McCord, chairman of it's board Of directors that the remedy for present financial strain throughout the country is "deflation, personal economy, larger production and a public opinion suffi- ciently strong to relieve the crippled traf-
 fic conditions"
 Decision not to increase discount rates to member commercial banks was reached after two days session here of directors of the parent reserve bank at Atlanta and the branch bank of New Orleans.
 Although the sessions were executive it was stated that the opinion of the majority of directors was that condi- tions in this part of the south were not such as to justify increases at present although it might be necessary to re- adjust the rates on sliding scale so as to prevent too liberal extension Of credits and excessive loans
 Chairman McCord in his statement said "The numerous strikes thar have ar

derwood are clean and able men, or great political resource.
 The fact that Mir. Underwood was able to overcome these factors is flat tering evidence of his strength among >the voters of Alabama and it is also perhaps a sidelight upon the tendency of voters everywhere to act for them selves and not in groups at the behest of self-constituted propagandists. Now, as always, legislator courageous enough to act according to his own conception of duty, after proper in- qury and generous allowance for the good faith of others, is not often re- jccted by the people. They know the difference between courage and dis loyalty and also between loyalty and sVcephancy"

BROKER CHARGED
 WITH VIOLATING THE LEVER ACT
Federal Agents Arrest Sell CTS, Accusing Him of Ob- taining Exces sive Profits on Consign-
 ment of Sugar

T. R. Sells, a broker on Morris avenue, was arrested yesterday by w. E. Garner, deputy United States marshal, on s charge of violating the act of August 10, 1917, known as the Lever act. He is al- leged to have bought 46,000 pounds of su- gar for IT cents a pound and to have sold it at PAP cents. This, the officials of the department of justice claim, to be an unjust and unreasonable charge. Waiving a preliminary hearing before
 Kenneth Charlton, United States commits
 soner yesterday afternoon, Sells was
 bound over to the grand jury under l,0o0 bond, which he made.
 According to the complaint issued by special agents of the department Of Jus- tice, this transaction occurred about April
 IS, and the broker was selling sugar at
 a profit in excess of that deemed reason
 able by the government for this con1-
 modity.
 Agents of the department of justice
 stated that sugar bought for IT cents a
 pound was sold by Mr. Sells to Robin
 son & Co, the Newcastle Coal Company and McGough's Bakery, while other
 firms bought some of this sugar through
 another broker Robinson & Co. are said
 to have sold some of the sugar bought by them through MT. Sells to Charles A. Jones & Go. Approximately two carloads of sugar are said to have been disposed of by MT. Sells at the above mentioned price, according to special agents work ing on the case.
 Attorney General Mitchell Palmer is- sued instructions a few days ago that only 1 cent per pound profit to whole salers and cents pound profit for retailers would be allowed by the gov ernment. Erie Pettus, United States attorney on receipt of the telegram from Attorney General Palrnsr, immediately notified the public of these regulations. l Any violators will be prosecuted, accord | ing to officials.

flcted the country and tied up ports and
 railroads have contributed immensely to making present conditions Deflation cannot be accomplsheo except through liquidation and liquidation cannot be ef- fected unless transportation facilities are adequate. Personal economy will hurry liquidation and it would provide much needed working capital. The power ck economy is shown by the fact that an average of 10 cents each for one year saved by every citizen and deposited in the banks would increase over liquid capital four billion dollars which would liquidate all the redscounts in the fed eral reserve system and provide $1O00,- 1 060 for financing Europe. Diligence ot effort, almost a lost art, must return 1 to life.
 We eonnot point out too strongly the utter failure of the individual to assume | personal responsibility.
 If every citizen would put his own house in order, good business will con- tinue and the people would remain pros | porous.
 Complete individual reform would | achieve all things needed.

 At any rate, he had heard from other members of southern delegations, but he spoke. In the galleries were numerous delegates to the Baptist convention, For their edifcation he spoke on prohibition.

For the Good of
 the Community

CT JUST hate statistics"
 The remark is often made It flows from the mental effort that consideration of statls- tics requires.
 The path of least resistance is the most popu- lar for the very simple reason that It IS easiest. But nothing stands out as convincing as statis- tics: honest ones Nothing else shows one where he is at.
 In a vague way Alabamians are aware that crop diversification has been practiced and that the one-crop system has been finally and forever eliminated from the Alabama farm schedule. The place now occupied by crop diversified tion in Alabama is graphically presented in Farm Facts," by F. w. Gist, Alabama field agent. An accompanying chart enables the reader to glimpse at glance the proportionate share of each avenue of farm effort. Accordng to Mr. Gist, this was as follows:
 Food and food crops (gathered) $260,641 ,0OO, or 45 per cent of the total. 4 Live stock products principally hogs and cat tie, $131, ,1940O0, or 22 per cent:
 Cotton, 99,92O,0O0, or IT per cent:
 Grazed and hogged crops, $41 ,184,0O0, or 7 per cent.
 Orchard fruits, $4,242,O0O, or 1 per cent. 
 All other, including small fruits, nuts and vegetables, $43, 100000 or 8 per cent
 Grand total, $582641 ,0O0.
 Statistics like this should be sweet music to the soul and mind of every Alabamian. The figures are the plainest kind of things, but they are mutely eloquent.
 For instance suppose Alabama makes and sells 2500000 tons of pig iron in 1920, and that this pig iron brings an average of $40 per ton. The astounding total will be $100,000O00, but that will be less than 20 per cent of the value of the farm products of the state marketed in 1919. Compared with the farms of the state, their annual production and their static wealth repre- sented by soil, climate, grazing herds and grow ing tree bush and stalk, the potentiality of min eral wealth development is as limb to tree.
 That is why the state of Alabama has offered cash prizes of $5,000 for the finest specimens of Alabama bred and Alabama raised beef steers at the State Fair in Birmingham in October. That is why the State Fair Association has added like amount, making the total $10,OO0.
 That is why Auburn experts are going over the state at this time seeing that fruit trees are sprayed so that the fruit of the Alabama orchard, capable of the highest development, and in the event of that development, suscept- ible of fetching the top money in the open mar ket, will attain that development and come to represent more than paltry $4,42OOOO per
