FRENCH PREMIER APPROVES
HARDING'S PROPOSAL

NJ Viviani, head of the French delegation,
in commenting the suggestion that
association of nations be formed, said:
what will people in Europe think of the
Presidents new idea? Are they not going to
think it is in conflict with the League of Ma
tons? l answer, no. The League of Nations
exists What is to be deplored is that it exists
alone. America through these conferences will
come into contact with the rest of the world.
Let the world be united in one way or the other.
There is no special protocol for that
Associations Of nations which have the same
end in view and the same object to attain are
not in conflict. If we chose to remain out
of the League of Nations there is no reason
why we cannot deal with the nations that are
in the league through some other connection.
If the world strives conscientiousy for peace
associational efforts take.
There has been too much wrangling over
form. Men agreed on principle can work for
it in many ways just as different organza-

A GREAT MAN FRIDAY
From The Macon News.

From The Macon News
Was Joe Tumulty president and was Wood
row Wilson his secretary? The disclosures of
the former indicate that he did most of the
real ordering during the war, and that the
Presidents first-voiced opinions usually gave
way beneath the sage counsel of Tumulty. Very
remarkable situation, Joe.

THE CONCRETE SPEAKS

81 you want to get to the people with a gospel
reduce it to the concrete and make it short at
that" said J. o. Thompson. 81 have recent
proof of this. At a meeting of the committee
to organize the Alabama farm marketing as
ISOLATION held in Birmingham l cited a Gull
man farmer who sold potatoes in Cullman at
rs cents bushel which later sold on Morris
avenue at 50 cents and sold to the consumer at
$3.50 bushel.
"The Age-Herald made lobby story of
this. 1t has gone all over the state and be-
lieve it has proven potent argument in favor
of farm marketing associations under the new
Alabama law, which enables them to function
in businesslike manner"

MONEY IN POTATOES

81 have great hopes for the sweet potato crop
in the SOUTH" says H. Herzfed ''The sweet
potato house built under government plans in
my opinion will go long waytowards solving
the handling of the crop which from time i'm
memorial has been largely wasted in the old
methods of killing. Near Alexander City, Ben
Isom, a negro tenant, sold $90.37 worth Of
sweet potatoes from a planting of 1000 plants
on less than one acre. Besides this he hilled
up for home use more than he can possibly USE
A 5-acre patch of cotton adjoining the sweet
potato field failed to bring as much money as
did the sweet potatoes"

BETTER TRANSPORTATION NEEDED

"Better transportation facilities between
Birmingham and Muscle Shoals are certainly
city commission. Judging from some of the
articles have noticed in the paper the people
of Sheffield do not think Birmingham has
taken the interest it should in the development
of that section of the state and think we
should get behind movement to obtain better
and more adequate transportation facilities and
if necessary committee composed Of MEM
bers of all civic organizations and luncheon
clubs should make trip to Muscle Shoals and
show the people that interested in the
development of any section of our state"

FRENCH OPERA HOUSE
TO BE REBUILT

New Orleans has determined to rebuild the
old French opera house on the original site and
duplicate the structure burned several years
ago. Many affairs have been arranged to raise
funds for this purpose.
The French opera house was historical. It
was connected with the early stages Of cultural
and musical development in the United States
Many great stars made their debut there. it
was the connecting link between the culture of
France and the new culture of young America.
1t was a landmark of progress from colonial to
national existence. 1t brought the new world
the courtliness and elegance of the old.
Thousands of visitors to New Orleans, who
have attended performances at the French
opera house will be pleased to learn that it
will be restored and that the memories and as
sociatons clustering about it will be preserved.
MUST ORGANIZE TO GET
FEDERAL AID
Federal aid for farm marketing associations
can be had for the asking. Alabama is not in
position to ask The sooner it arrives at that
position the sooner it will be in line with the
progressive southern states already organized
and making use of funds of the war finance
corporation.
Very recently the corporation announced APP

northern United States and southern
Canada at the time Of the earliest ex-

OUT OF DANGER


Continued on rage ATwo.l
Junta early this morning to attempt
to follow thg line of the Santa Fe to
Pueblo.
Santa -Fe officials in Topeka decline
to pass out any estimate OF the loss of
life in Paeblo- During q short time
when there was telephone communi-
cation with Pueblo, there were so
many different estimates OF the dead
given out, that it is not considered
worth while to attach credence to any
of them. 6 -=+e5
Local telegraph offices have been
swamped today with kilograms to per-
sons in the flooded districts from
friends and relatives anxious for the
safety of the possible victims.
All offices are in the same condi-
ton, it was stated here today. and
messages for Pueblo and the towns
near Pueblo are being accepted sub
ject to considerable delay4 There is
no Geographic communication with
Pueblo itself.
There are four gangs of men wait
ing at four points around Pueblo to
start reconstruction as soon as the
ger of the Western Union at Topeka,
said today. 1--WE have run our wires
as close as we can to the city, and
are going on from the temporary Of
fices established at the ends of the
wires, in boats as far as possible.
People must understand that it is
a tremendous task to find people in
Pueblo even after a wire has been de-
livered in the city. Innumevable fami-
lies have left their homes or been
driven OUT
