Mr.. Tumulty's call a. Senator Hitch

10 mean President Wilson had decided
to bring to an end his period Of aloof-
ness from treaty developments, and
10 assume again the direct leadership
of the Democratic forces.
This belief was strengthened by
statements made by Mr.. Tumulty and
Senator Hitchcock that the presidents
secretary had been getting informa
tion for Mr. Wilson.
1t is 10 he presumed, senators said,
the president does not desire the in
formation for its own sake, but rather
to aid him in some contemplated step
with reference to ratification. If he
intends to continue his ''hands off"
attitude, they believe, he would not

WORKING ON RAIL
AND WATER RATES

Efforts are going to be made by the
Chamber of Commerce to stimulate
the use Of the Warrior river facili-
ties for shipments to gulf tide-water
as means Of reviving Federal inter-
est in the Tombigbee river.
This is an old problem and on
which Columbus has been working for
years. 1t is not regarded as a hope
less proposition, however and the new
Chamber of Commerce is going to
make an effort to revive interest in
the project.
Already the government has SO i'm
proved the Warrior river from Tusca-
loosa to the coast that the traffic
there is increasing in volume and it is
pointed out that all tonnage original
ing from Columbus and the Columbus
territory and routed over the Warrior
will go as credit to the Tombigbee
project.
Secretary Stephens Of the Chamber
Of Commerce is compiling data show,
ing comparative river and rail yates
and in the event the advantage is in
favor of the river rates NERD ants
and others here will be induced to have
their shipments routed by the Warrior
river.

COLUMBUS MAY
GET KRESS STORE

A representative of the Kress chain
of stores was in Columbus Thursday
looking for a location for store for
Columbus.
The Kress stores are similar to the
Woolworth stores and are located in
all of the principal cities of the coun-
try, and equal in volume of business
and prestige to the Woolworth stores.
The whole situation in Columbus
was gone over by the Kress represen-
tative, and it was found that not a
single business house in the section
of the city is available at this time.
Kress will keep their eyes on Col
umbus and diligent efforts will be
made to secure a location here in the

DRASTIC METHODS
ADOPTED TO CUT
MEAT PRICES HERE
WOMEN TO REFRAIN FROM
PURCHASING MEAT UN-
TIL PRICES DROP.
MAKE DEM NDS
On Butchers to Lower Prices on
Reef-FOur Hundred Women
Have Signed Pledges to
Stand by Action.

AT a meeting Of the housewives
of Columbus held Friday afternoon
at the College School of Citizenship,
the question of further reductions in
the price Of beef was discussed and
the following resolutions passed:
/ I'VE, the housewives Of Columbus
feel that the restrictions imposed by
the meat dealers coincidinental with
the reduction in the price of meat
which they offer, nulifes the small re-
duction which they have made. We
therefore urge reduction Of ten
cents per pound for all cuts of beef
and are willing to pay cash on de-
livery for same. We further agree
that where charge accounts are asked
that the reduction Of five cents per
pound is acceptable
AS means Of accomplishing their
ends, the women decided to abstain
from the purchase Of all meats for as
Icing as might be necessary. Promin-
ent women who are recognized COM
munity leaders in civic affairs, were
designated in each ward to secure the
cooperation of all the women in their
respective wards. They report an en-
thusiastic reception everywhere, and
over 400 women have pledged their
support to the movement. The women
are determined to carry out their pro-
gram and to this end urge the heart
lest cooperation upon all the women
Of the community Housewives have
arraA3nd u abss2iA frala er-
chase Of meat entirely for such time
as may be necessary to induce the
butchers to lower their prices reason
ably.
1t was further pointed out at the
meeting that the maxium price paid
for live stock in the local markets is
five and one-half cents per pound,
showing what seemed to the women
an exorbitant margin Of profit to the
butchers with prices at the present
level Of thirty and thirty-fve cents
per pound.
A committee was appointed to COM
the action Of the meeting t.
the meat butchers.
There is prospect Of the establish
ment Of the community market where
the men who bring meat in from the
surrounding country will be able to
dispose Of their wares to the CONSUME
er, thus facilitating the transfer of
meats from the seller to the buyer.
One local merchant has rendered the
use of his store for this purpose and
a plan Of this kind may be worked out
later.
Practically the entire membership
of the women's organizations of Col
umbus are back of the movement.
These include the School Of Citizen
ship, the Woman's Club, the two
Chapters of the D, A. RS, the U. d.
C.'s, and the Reading Circle.

Los, Angeles, Cal, Nov. 20.-This

They decided that Gloria Swanson

unexpected move on the part Of the
parent when she was told of the
shower Of publicity that awaited the
newcomer.

movie land" said Mrs. Somborn.
"And she will not be the honored
guest at parties, or posed for a bat
terry Of camera men, or earted around
by press agents to satisfy the curios-

II may appear selfish, but | want
my baby all to myself and husband.
We are so happy these days that
