new EMPIRE IS
BORN in EUROPE
Famous British Scientist
Tells of Work Now

| LONDON.-Quietly, almost UNI
needed and without any destinations
flag wagging, new empire has just
been born in Europe - the empire
of greater Greece.
The event took place at San Reno
but it escaped the attention it de-
served because the world was at that
time more interested in the fate of
Germany, Turkey and Armenia and
the patching up of the Frankfort
quarrel between Britain and France.
The empire builder who has put
bigger Greece on the map is Eleu-
therios Veniezelos, who telephoned
King Constantine, and who was re-
garded as the brainiest of all the
delegates attending the Paris peace
conference. In triumphantly round
ing off at San Reno fifteen months
of the cleverest and most consistent
diplomatic labors, he had the back
ing Of Lloyd George and Millerand,
with Nitti dissenting. Had Presi-'
dent Wilson sent representative.
to San Reno he too would have dis
scented from some of the Greek con-
cessions as Frank Polk was ordered
to do at the Hotel Crillon last July.
Greater Greece now touches four
seas-the Adriatic, the Aegean, the
Black sea and the Mediterranean.
It's northern frontier runs in an un-
broken line from Epirus in the west
to the Chatalia lines to the east.
1t takes in disputed territories peo-
pied by Albanians, Jugo-Slavs, Bull
garians and Turks. 1t gets the Do
DEAFNESS (the Aegean islands that
Italy occupied) and in Smyrna 1t
will establish a strong outpost on
the mainland Of Asia.
According to Venizelos, the sub
jects of Greece now number $780,
900, compared with 100000 before
the war; but other estimates place
the new figure at nearer 10000
900.
This achievement is hailed with
delight by Pan-Hellenists, Who adj
NIT that their full program is "al-
most realized" and whose only re-
greet is that Constantinople was not
also given in their hands. But in
The chancellories of Europe there is
grave doubt that the new empire
will hold together after death or
other causes remove Venizelos from |
control.

zenship Of Russia, an allied power When asked by Senator Moses, chairman of the subcommittee. how he had acquired citi- zeuship he answered that his sister, Mrs Popoff, living in Petrograd. had gone through the transaction for him. He added that the papers of citizenship had been sen him by registered mail. but that possibly through the British censor's ing no proof of citizenship was not re- garded as a strong point in Martens favor For if he cannot demonstrate proof of Russian citizenship, he will have, according to present light. no ex- cuse for having refrained from register ing as an alien enemy when such regis tration was demanded
 Mr. Martens is in appearance German, with a weak face. and without the proverbial German pretensions to superb ority He was humble before the com niittee On the other hand his seere- tary, Santeri Nuorteva, was pompous and possibly to show his indifference to the proceedings, if not contempt. quietly but ostentaciously slept during certain moments of the original hearing
 The audiences which daily packed the committee room are composed of short haired women and long-haired. fiercely- mustachio-ed men, many nondescript for eigners, representatives of the "ad- vanced thought and spiritual uplift." professional socialists, suffragettes and prohibitionists, and many animated sole ly through what might be regarded as a natural curiosity.

 MT. Conklin. who is in Washington, eX- pla ned to the correspondent of this newspaper. that prior to the war the bulk of the graphite used in the United States was imported from Ceylon and Madagascar. Those producing countries have a decided advantage over the Ala bama interests because whereas labor in Alabama received fine wage in Ceylon and Madagascar the wage is from 10 to 90 cents day, some days payable m rice
 It is understood that the administration is i7 favor of permitting those industries developed through the exigency of war to continue functionng now since the war is over. and the demand for their func- tioning is not so necessary to the public veal Bernard Baruch, who was the ad- mnistration's right-hand man in keep ing American industries going during the war. publicly declares the necessity that enterprises should be permitted to con tinue. For those reasons, it is believed that the President will not interpose ob- lection to the passage or the Fordney bill, even though it does carry a tariff pro- vision, but one which, according 10 the idea of Senator Underwood, does not throttle competition
 MT. Conklin stated that the remaining third of the graphite produced in the United States during the war came from New York, Pennsylvania and Texas

REPUBLICANS HOLD UP
 PUBLIC BUILDINGS BILL

Washington, January 21.-(Special)- )- Having reported only the semblance of a rivers and harbors bill yesterday, the steering committee of the republican maority issued instructions today that no public buildings bill be reported.
 The public buildings committee im- mediately on receipt of the instructions resolved to obey. So there will be no bill, and no buildings. This carries acute disappointment to practically ev- cry town in the United tSates.
 There has been no public buildings bill since 1913, all construction having been ordered stopped on account of the war. Were an adequate bill reported in the present it would carry appro- rriations to total of s75,000,00O
 The republicans, charged with play ing politics in presidential year, de- clared that but for their retrenchment respecting rivers and harbors and pub lie buildings, a bond issue would be necessary. At the same time, the demo- crats. alleging false economy involving more or less palpable hypocrisy. are preparing to offer substitute rivers and harbors bill tomorrow.
 This bill, to be sponsored by the ranking democrat of the rivers and har- bors committed Representative Small of North Carolina, will provide appropria-, tions to the extent of s40,000, 900 in keeping with the recommendations of the chief of engineers
 This amount would adequately care Tor all existing projects and permit others deemed necessary to be under taken. The substitute will probably go down beneath republican opposition.

 On securing hls release rom the army te went tc Switzerland where he met t9rner Russian associates and plotted for the dissemination in Russian territory of anti-govermnent literature This was just prior to the sensational developments which threw Russia into war, and led up to the murder of the Czar, his wife and children, and the falling apart of the Russian military machine
 Because of fear of imprisonment, Mar tens did not go into Russia, but visited London. Because he was bora in Russia even though of German parents, he was not informed a the beginning of the war, but was permitted to go about at liberty. No official objection was expressed to his passage to America. When he landed in the United States his British creden- tals were regarded as satisfactory and again his movements were not restrained. He became the purchasing agent for Russian firm engaged in steel manufac- turing, and a contributor to the social istic newspaper printed in New York Of which the notorious Trotsky now poss of Russia. was editor Last fall Senator Kenyon introduced a resolution author izing the committee to interrogate Mar tens, who it was declared had declined tc# answer some pertinent qustions pro- bounded by constituted authority. The resolution was passed Agents of the government experienced difficulty in To- eating the man. However, two weeks ago. he was found in Washington at a fashionable hotel surrounded by his staff of satellites. He denied that he had ever made attempts to evade arrest.
 There was apparently one weak spot in Martens armor. He was asked why he did not register when aliens were called upon by the government to register at the beginning of the war. He stated that he had not done so because by the date of the proclamation he had acquired citi-

HEFLIN DEFENDS SEDITION BILL.

Washington, January 2.-tspecialD-Re- plying 0 those members of Congress who explain their opposition to the sedition bill by declaring it contains a deliber- ate attempt to throttle the press of the country, Representative Heflin of the Fifth Alabama district argued that the government had the right to demand the life of the man who plotted against it's life. The death penalty was justified in his opinion. s%
 1n that connection he said: 'I am the friend of free speech and free press. And no man or woman who believes In the constitution and favors the Ameri- can form of government need ever fear prosecution for anything that grows out of law which seeks to protect American institutions against sedition and treason.

MRS. BURNETT ASKS
 RAINEY TO BE SILENT

Washington, January 21.-(Special. )- The reception of a letter by Representa- tive Rainey of the Seventh Alabama dis trlct from Mrs. John l.. Burnett of Gadsden' requesting that he refrain rom speaking in eulogy of her late husband, former Representative Bur nett, during the memorial exercises in the House next Sunday, created a sen sation in the Alabama delegation today.
 Mrs. Burnett was evidently moved to make her request through the fact that several times prior to the death of her husband MT. Rainey opposed him unsuc- cessfully for reelection. in which cam paigns more or less acrimonious criti- cism was exchanged.
 When NIT. Rainey. who had prepared an eulogy for delivery Sunday, made known to the other members of the del egation the request he had received. they Joined in a letter to Mrs. Burnett explaining the situation. and asking her 10 withdraw her request
 Mir. Rainey's position is rendered ad- ditionaily embarrassing because of the long principal memorial address he has prepared Should Mrs. Burnett not Wlthdraw her request Mir Rainey rather than have it appear that he does not remember the late member in all respects, will probably make suitable eNpidnduon to the House

What the Dump Pile Contains

From the Thrift Magazine.
 The average American city sends to the dump 3 tons of usable material for every 1000 inhabitants.
 Waste material sent to city dump piles is worth $2 a ton. Thus for every thousand of city population there is an average of $26 each year in junk alone.
 Of this waste SO per cent is old pa- per. Eight trees of mature growth are required to make a ton of pulp. ton of waste paper will save these trees. Two million tons of boxwood were manufactured in the United States from old paper last year. Sixteen mill lion trees would have been sacrificed to make this material providing old paper had not been consumed.
 Each ton of usable waste carried to the dump contains 0007 per cent of rags. Eight per cent of the value of ton is made up of this material. Dump rags can be used in making roofing felt. To destroy them is td increase building costs Clean rags are more valuable. as they can be utilized in making paper, wiping rags, and other items.

 This bill. the indications are will re- ceive the support of the entire Alabama delegation, including Senator Underwood. who is so opposed to a protective tariff that he has been termed a protect.onist a fur trader. The senator, in stating his po- sition to A. B. Conklin of Ashland mem her of the Graphite Producers Associa- tion of the United States, declared that he was not opposed to a tariff which would not prevent competition, and which at the same time was necessary in that local industries might function
 The bill is of particular interest to Ala bama in which state, during the war, two thirds of the graphite used in the
