that he is conducting activities of a commercial nature?" asked the chair man.
 There have been cases of that kind without doubt" admitted Ls. True.
 Then asked the chairman, you do not approve of the government turning over funds to conduct non official commercial enterprise of that character?"
 No, sir.' solemly averred Dr. True.
 Some Costly Brains
 Thus were developed the facts that the American Farm Bureau federa- tion outstripped the older and well established rivals by means, in part at least, of government assistance.
 The federation, as previously pointed out in this correspondence, collects dues of from $5 to $15 from each of 1,5oo,00o members. s75o,0o0 of which supports the national organ ization, and s3o,oOo the Washington office.
 The president of the fedora ton Is paid s15,000 per annum, and it's Washington representative S12.o00. And thus 1t would appear that while the farmer, at home, is very poor,

UNKNOWN SOLDIER TO BE
 BURIED IN OLD GLORY

Washington, September 5.-(Spe- cial. .)-The interment of the unknown soldier who died under the folds Of the Stars and Stripes on the fields of Flanders wilk be an epoch marking event in American history if plans of the war department materialize.
 Tho interment, with full military honors, will be made November II. the third anniversary of the armis- tice, at Arlington. It will be wit messed by the President and his cabi- ret, the memh~rs of the House and Senate, General Pershing and staff, General Foch, the military genius developed during the war, and that distinguished company which will be in Washington for the purpose of at tending the disarmament conference. The body will be transplanted to the United States on the Olympia which was the flagship of Admiral Dewey at the battle of Manila Bay. The vessel will sail from the United States October 10. and will land at either Brest or Cherebourg, October 23 It will remain in Franco three or four days, and returning will land either in New York or Hampton Roads November 10.
 The body bearers will be sergeants of the regular army and -commis- stoned officers of the navy and me- rine corps.
 The unknown dead will typify the sacrifice of the United States to the end that the voice of the people In government might not be forever stilled. He hight> have sprung from wealth or squaldr, and his color might be white. or red or black. But he will be inferred as the imper- sonation of the country, the spirit Of the country and the flag.

the first acquaintance of their profs. No longer will this be seen.
 Instead of going through the cum bersome procedure above described the students now go directly to the rooms of their professors where they are signed up" and given their nec- essary instructions.
 Precedent Shattered
 Another precedent that is shat tered this year is that of the presi- dents signing the report card Cf ev- cry student at the university imme- diately after his registration. This Is another procedure that was pos sible in the days of old, wheA the university numbered it's prodsies by the hundreds, but ow that the unit of measurement Is the thousand, this custom has had to go the route of a number of others in order to make way for the Greater University"
 Formerly every student upon his arrival was given personal inter view with the president to sign his report card before he could become fully matriculated. Now, however, there comes from the presidents of flee a notice that while 1t Is no longer necessary tha. the presi- dents signature be affixed to the report cards, 1t is desired and expected that all students, es- pecially new students, will call at the presidents office as soon as possible after their arrival.' Another milestone in the progress of the university.
 It is officially announced that there are 15 additions to the university faculty this year. and a detailed an- nouncement of these additions will follow in a day or two.

 V V Art league holds an ex- hibit. beginning on September 20, a step forward will be made in this line for the purpose of showing the ment which has been made in photography and the use which can be made o: photography in place of drawings and other adornments of this sort
 MT. Hartley Anderson, the newly elected secretary of the Birmingham Art league, whose work in Town Planning and Home Planning" and who as Architect and Landscape Architect and Allied Arts" is one of the prominent figures of Birmlng Han's artistic world, expressed him self in the foregoing statement re- earding the photographic exhibit which will be seen here at an early date when he was talking with me yesterday.
 MT. Anderson, who Is Bostonian, came to Birmingham through his con nections with the Tennessee Coal and Iron company four years ago. the planning and laying out" Of Westfield, Fairfield Heights, and Chickasaw being among his most prominent activities.
 When the war came about there was little demand for planning or de- signing in Mir Anderson's particu- lar line of work and so for 10 months he devoted himself in connection with Warren and Knight to the plans of Birmingham made by William H. Manning of Boston-tentatively ac- cepted-in whose offices MT. Ander- son worked-and which include Bir- mingham's proposed Civic Center" the auditorium being the first step in this direction.
 These plans for Birmingham which MT. Anderson has worked out cover a period of 150 years for this great city, taking care of a million and half people.
 Photography as fine art as worked out by Lejaren Hiller," MT Anderson said, whose work is eX plotted every month in the leading magazines, reveals !he poetic side of photography probably better than anybody else's, showing that photog raphy practically has no limits.
 Here in Birmingham photography has made excellent advances" MT. Anderson said. Take for instance commercial photography; the plain, sharp, detailed style; MT. Kelly and MT. Fitzpatrick. of the Tennes- see Coal and Iron company, can hardly be excelled in this. Their work is excellent. anc glad to see that the Birmingham. newspa- pers are using so much photography, it is fine idea; whether the pho tography turns out well or not--it gives an idea of development that cannot be given in any other way. The 'Rotogravure' photography which many of the metropolitan newspa- pers use. is the most artistic form of newspaper photography; but it is of course very expensive.

FARMERS LOBBY BACKED BY FUNDS
 OF HIDDEN SOURCE
Different Bodies Seem Un- able to Get Together Into One Big Organization for
 Mutual Benefit
By HUGH w, ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age-Herald
 300 Davidson Building

Washington, September 5.-(SpH- cial.) )-Why the farmer, who at home is regarded as q man in distressful circumstances, is represented by so many intelligent and highly paid agents in Washington. constitutes a mystery.
 It is question whether the farr CT formed each of the six or eight or ganizations, or whether the organiza- tons were formed by agents and the farmer initiated as the pay master.
 T. c. Atkeson, Washington repre- sentative of the National Grange, re- garding this subject. made the fol- lowing statement: We are asked Why don't you farmers all get to- gether? When Herbert Hoover was at the head of the food administra- ton, he wanted to know who would speak for the farmers. He said, This organization claims to speak for the farmers, and the other or ganization claims 10 speak for the farmers. and he reached such de- gree of enthusiasm he exclaimed. NiiO III tnC IT. uOtS represent tuS farmers anyway"
 Farmers Agents Disagree
 MT. Atkeson, further endeaVoring to explain the existence of many or ganizations all laboring to the same end, said: There was a prominent citizen who went to hades. The gatekeeper said, No, I couldn't let you in. You would want to run the whole institution inside Of week. But I'll let you have little fire d birthstone, and you can go off by yourself and have your own Hell if you want to-"
 Before the House committee on banking and currency, January 21, 1921, MT Atkeson was asked to ex- plain the fundamental differences between the various farm organiza- tions. He was general rather than specific. He did state. however, that in matters of legislation, the grange and the old farmers union were much in accord, but his own position could always be ascertained by seek ing the contrary to that of Benjamin Marsh, director of legislation for the Farmers National council.

SPEECHES, SPORTS, BARBECUE FEATURE
 DAYS CELEBRATION

Meridian, Miss, September 5.-(Spe- cial) )--Woodrow Wilson. the League of Nations and the democratic admin istratlon's conduct of America's par ticipation In the World war were elo- quently eulogized today before a large audience at Highland Park, gathered for celebration of Labor Day with a basket picnic. barbecue, ! field events. and political speaking. Former Congressman Hubert D. Stephens of New Albany, and Miss Belle Kearny of Flora. candidates for the United States Senate; Judge Percy Bell of Greenville, and State Senator F. c. Franklin of Clarksdale. candi- dates for governor. and T. Webber Wilson of Laurel, District attorney and prospective candidate for Con- gross in that district, were the speak CTS.
 T. Webber Wilson was the first speaker, his address being devoted mainly to the patriotic response of America in making the world free for democracy and the part that labor had played in the World war. The credit he gave Woodrow Wilson and the democratic administration for the advancement of organized labor, the eight-hour law and other recogni- tions of the organized toiler were loudly applauded, while his criticism of former President Wilson's abusers met with an equally hearty response.
 Former Congressman stephens, In announcing himself a candidate for the United States Senate. also paid a glowing tribute to former Presi- dent Wilson. asserting that his name would stand forth as the greatest man the world had ever known in future history, and was severe in his ar raignment of MT. Wilson's critics.
 Miss Belle Kearney spoke briefly and to the point, making splendid impression and was often interrupted with applause She asserted that Mississippi had taken the initiative in many important movements and as there had never been woman in the United States Senate she was hopeful the state would take the initiative In her particular case, as the millions of women wage-earners of the nation were sorely in need of direct repre- sentation in the higher branch of Congress. She also dwelt on the pro- gress women had made toward re- cognition politically and otherwise during the past few years. asserting that the purification of politics and the nation could not be had until women are given equal rights with men in the conduct of the affairs.
 State Senator Franklin and Judge Bell spoke only briefly of their candi- dacy for governor, devoting most of their time to discussion of labor and what the state had done for or ganized labor, Senator Franklin es- pecially pointing to- acts of the legis- lature in which he Was instrumental in that had been of benefit to or ganized labor.
 Music during the day was furnished by the boys band of the State Indus trial school at Columbia who chanced to be in the city to give a concert under the auspices of the local Y. M c. A.

Sketches cannot take the place of photography in newspapers" MT. Anderson said. T have seen this tried too often without good results; photography alone satisfies the pub lie.
 Some of the best examples of photography I've seen here is done by the Stephenson studio" Mr. An derson said "They are using pro- cess of making photographs with a new Kind of rough texture paper which is employed that makes a very fine photograph, remarkably like a charcoal sketch.
