Keeping Outsiders Out

Inland Waterways Most
 Effective If United

TH HE inland waterway interest of
 U Alabama stand better chance of continuous development through association with the combined strength of the Mississippi valley basin than if isolated.
 John Craft, of Mobile, has been named chairman of the Warrior dis trict division of the valley asso- citation and he and his associates from eleven districts will meet early in September to outline their plans of action. Mr. Craft says. By uniting behind our association the people of the whole valley and having them work together we wa soon secure the square deal that has heretofore been withheld.
 Alabamians should not seek a severance of the management of the Warrior during this test of opera ton. The Warrior end of the Mississippi-Warrior barge line is not yet making money, while the other end is and the latter's net earnings offset our deficit when the system is treated as whole.
 It is essential that the inland waterway interests of the entire basin stand together to wield their combined influence at critical june lures. That these are always at hand experience has fully demon strated.

High Valuation of
 State Convict Farms

1.-THE report of the state auditor
 U of Mississippi shows that the total valuation of the Mississippi penitentiary property is $5,616,000. The Sunflower plantation, contain ing 15,7s0 acres, is valued at $3,157,000, and the O'Keefe farm in Quitman county, of 5000 acres, is valued at s1,o00,OoO., The total value of real estate is S4,770,0O0. Personal property is valued at $62O,OOO and live stock alone at $227,eoo.
 The state of Minnesota earns a net profit of S4,O0O,000 per annum in its convict twine mill. With the soil and climate which Alabama has her conyicts should be able to earn a handsome revenue for the state both in the manufacture of cotton and in farm products for the use of all the states institutions.
 There seems every reason to look for fully as much net revenue from the convicts after January, 1922, when the leasing system expires, as the system has contributed.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
VOTES FOR SOLDIERS

To the Editor of The Age Herald:
 In regard to the soldier boys vot- ing, it is my hope and my opinion that some way can be found to legal ize the votes of our gallant defend CTS who are so ruthlessly dlsfran- ehsed by the supreme court upon points. which many deem absurdly technical.
 Public sentiment should force some kind of action or sustain any concert of action agreed upon by the candi- dates. Permit me to suggest that these disfranchised heroes be allowed to cast their votes in separate bal lot box, and if the votes cast by them should turn the scale in the case of any one candidate, such candidate or any citizen could, should he desire, go to the courts and test to the high est court in the land the validity of this vote. But of course no candi- date could contest without violating his obligation should he subscribe to this agreement of separate ballot box.
 suggest this as solution of the whole matter at issue. If any way can be found to do so, our soldier boys must and shall be permitted to exercise their constitutional right to cast their ballots and take part in the government for the preserva-
  ton of which they have suffered hardships inexpressible and risked their lives a thousand times on the battlefields of France. I for one would feel that something great was lacking if were to accept any office within the gift of the people from constable to the presidency, unless for in my mind no greater blow was ever handed by any court to part of our citizenship than the disfran- chisement of these young men to tude that we can never be able to re- pay. Even the most technically inclined should be able to subscribe to this suggestion of separate ballot box.
 Of course, an agreement containing all of the details of how these two joint votes could be counted and di- vided, and the conditions under which they could be abided by the candi- dates, should be set forth in . dis tinctive Agreement, and each candi- date sisn same, and all of these agreements be deposited with a com mittee or with some trust company in the city. Respectfully,
 VIM. l.. WHITE.

revenue from a tariff which makes

revenue from a tariff which makes it impossible to import goods"
 We are the creditor nation of the world. Our debtors cannot pay us except in goods. If we do not allow these goods to enter, they will not pay us. Ifthey cannot pay us they cannot take goods from us. The result is stagnation of trade and that will react on us as surely and with as much deadliness as on our debtors.
 As the Mobile Register remarks in commenting on Senator Under woods position, eve can keep the outsiders out, but we at the same time keep customers out. Accord ingly it is true, as MT. Underwood says, that eliminating all competi- tion does not always mean pros- perity."
 The largest corporation in the world has waxed strong while it's competitors prospered under a policy of live and let live. The steel business of America found new high levels for all following the broad minded methods of the Steel Cor poration.
 The world owes us eighteen to nineteen billion dollars. It is a Chinese puzzle to figure out set clement of that debt unless the world is allowed to ship goods to us.

MAPPING AMERICA

 Washington, August 17.-(Special.) Engineers and others interested in urging the consideration by Congress of a bill recently introduced to pro- vide for the completion of the topo- graphical survey of the United States the area of this country has no top ographic maps of the accuracy re- quired as the basis for industrial, engineering and scientific operations. ing a period of 20 years is eontem- plated by the bill offered by Repre- sentative Henry W. Temple of Penn sylvania, but engineers point out that the nation will receive much greater return for such an expenditure, and thet it is not running expense, but permanent investment, just as are the reclamat ton projects and the Pan anna canal.
 ' If we are to continue at the rate of progress being made now in our typographical mapping and control surveys as the basis for such ma ps, it will be 100 years or more before the work Is completed, and, in the meantime, all the areas of the coun- try which are undergoing develop ment would have to be resarveyed number of times" declares Maj. Will liam Bowie, chief of the division of geodesx of the United States coast and eeodetic survey and vice chair man of the federal board of maps and surveys. Today we do not know and venture the assertion that no expert in the field of any one of the natural resources knows within 50 per cent what we actually have. We have used them right along and we have the feeling that when we use up any one thing there will always be something to take its place. It Is only when we have actually discov- cred. mapped and measured the ex-' tent of our resources that we will be able to adopt some wise plan for their use and conservation"
 Before an investigator in any field that has to do with the lay of the land can do his work most efficiently he must have map of that region 1t is pointed out. This is true whether he be a chaser of insects. classlfier

LIoNEss DEFIEs SURGEON

From Nthe New York World.
 Anyainformation as to how to make a raging lioness docile, so that she can be operated on and her life there. by saved, will be thankfully received by the officials of the New York Geological park.
 Mudie, Nubian lioness, is the ami nal that has been causing Dr. W. Reid Blair, the park veterinarian. much worry. The lioness has not had any sleep during the last few days.
 unusual irritation and restlessness. Keeper Schwartz made a close study of her and found the animal had an narrowing claw on the right front paw that penetrated the flesh and caused her intense pain every time she moved. Dr. Blair said the only way to aid her was to operate on the paw.
 For a previous operation of a sinai- lar character on a small lion Dr. Blair had very little difficulty in moving the patient to shifting cage" where the animal was securely tied, 50 that the doctor worked with ease.
 Mudie, however, refuses to be lured from her present homelike quarters outside the lion house. and days of patient work Have brought no results, only a noticeable increase in her viciousness.
 Chloroform was tried, but this also proved unsuccessful, as no keeper would venture close enough to ad- minister the drug properly. If all other efforts fail, chloral, or "knock- out drops" will be tried. for the ani- nal is valuable. and pr. Blair fears that if the ingrowing claw is not re- moved soon blood poisoning might develop and kill the lioness.
 Thus far there have been no volun- teers to place Mudie in the operating cage.
