Home Made Toys

bunny, cat, or dog in black; made
ears and fastened them on with but

used in making the slippers and many
of the animal toys were largely from
odds and ends that are usually thrown
away in making over garments.

IRISH SECESSION HELD IMPOSSIBLE

 operation with the other peoples of the empire.
 British government invite ireland to take her place in the great associa- ton of free nations over which His Majesty reigns. AS an earnest of their desire to obliterate old quarrels and 10 enable Ireland to face the flu ture with her own strength and hope, they propose that Ireland shall as- sume forthwith the status fo a do- minion, with all the powers and privileges set forth In this document.
 Complete Autonomy
 "By the adoption of dominions status, it Is understood that Ireland shall enjoy complete autonomy in taxation and finance; that she shall maintain her own military forces for home defense, her own constabulary and her own police; that she shall take over the Irish postal services and all matters relating thereto; edu- cation, land, agriculture. mines and minerals forestry. housing, labor, unemployment. transport. trade. pub lie health, health insurance and liquor traffic, and in sum- that she shall exercise all those powers and privileges upon which the autonomy of discovering dominions is based subject to the consideration set forth in the ensuing paragraphs.
 "Guaranteed in these liberties, which no foreign people can chal- lenge without challenging the empire as a whole. the dominions hold each and severally by virtue of their Brit ish fellowship. standing among the nations equivalent not merely to their individual strength but to the combined power and influence of al: the nations of the commonwealth. To guarantee that fellowship, that free dom the whole empire looks to Ire- land to accept"
 Then follow six stipulations.
 Six Stipulations
 The first says that the common concern of both countries in the de- fense of their interests on land and sea shall be recognized.
 Great Britain" it adds, Hives by the sea, her food and her communi- cations depend on the freedom of the Britain's side. acrosse the seaways north and south. that link her with the sister nations of the empire, the markets of the world, and the vital sourcse of her food supply.
 "In recognition of this fact. which nature has imposed and which nc statesmanship can change, it Is es- sential that the royal navy alone should control the seas around Ire land and Great Britain. and that such rights and liberties should be ac- corded 1t by the Irish state as are es- sentiAl for. naval purposes in Irish narbors and on Irish coasts" The second stipulation says: Tn order that the movement to- ward limitation of armaments which Is now making progress in the world should not be hampered in any way the Irish territorial force shall with in reasonable limits conform in mum, bers to the military establishments ir other parts of the islands

2,7Ol CONNECTS IN
 ALABAMA PRISONS
Figures Compare With 2,188I In April, 1919, and 3,269
 In March, 1916
By FRED II. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau, The Age-HeraId g21-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, August 14.-tSpecial.) One may hold before his eyes the tab ulation showing the number of per sons confined in state prison in Ala bama now in comparison with those of other years and see the reflection of the recent disturbed business con- ditions and unemployment as plainly as one may see the image of human being reflected in a mirror.
 William F. Feagin, state warden general, today made public statistics showing the number of convicts in all state prisons in comparison with the number in other recent years. At this time there are 2,701 convicts in state prisons, of which number 1859 are negro males 713 white males, 122 negro females and [ white females. In April, 1919, when all the world had not felt the readjustment from war there were only 2,1SS state convicts, this being the smallest number at any one time in many years. As business conditions became less favorable the number of convictions gradually in- creased until there were 2.310 in July 1920, Then the increases came faster and faster, each month indicating ad- ditions to the prisons.
 Number in Prison
 But with 2,701 in state prisons now there are not as many convicts in this state as there were during the period of depression which followed the beginning of the war in Europe when the cotton markets closed and general business became stagnated for many months. After the courts had done their work for this period the state prisons contained 3,269 con victs in March 1916. This was the greatest number of persons ever con fined within the walls of the state penitentiary system.
 An unusual fact is that more white men have come to the penitentiary during the past month than negroes. Fifty convicts have been added to the records of the convict department during the past month. 47 being white and only three negroes. This is due to the fact that white men are bolder In their efforts to evade the prohibit ton laws and large number have been convicted of operating stills in violation of the bone-dry law and given prison sentences.
 Another fnterestin fact is that of the 2.7o1 convicts only 50 are con fined in the tuberculosis hospital at Wetumpka. Of the tubercular pa. uents 30 are negro males. 12 white males and negro females.

Tuscaloosa Merchants Need An Association

Tuscaloosa August 14-(special) The merchants of Tuscaloosa are practically unanimous in their opin- ion that merchants association or bureau is necessary for the success ful solution of the many problems that arise daily and effect them in dividually and collectively.
 The merchants in the large centers are taking every advantage possible to draw trade from the smaller town they are uniting their efforts for this purpose, and unless some coop erative force is brought about by the merchants of Tuscaloosa the result will be more serious than even the most pessimishc individual could contemplate.
 The merchants of Tuscaloosa must realize that the purchasing power-of a community is limited, therefore in order to increase sales, or even main tain normal turnover it is neces- sary to reach more people.
 The meeting to be held Tuesday night at o'clock in the chamber of commerce auditorium should be att tended by every merchant in Tusca- loosa.

7 oCretary Weeks Proceeding Slowly, While Pleas for the Detroit Manufacturer
 Continue to Pour In
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The AKe-Herald
 BOO Davidson BuiidinE


 Washington, August 14.-(Special) ' hat Secretary of War J. W. Weeks
 proceeding cautiously in regard to le offer of Henry Ford to acquire Id operate the Muscle Shoals ni- rate plant developed today, when , 'ongressman Jacoway of Arkansas tiled upon the Secretary in the in rests of prominent Arkansans who tvor the Ford offer. MT. Jacoway i'd the Secretary that he had let ters and telegrams from H. l.. Rem eael, president of the Arkansas Bank c s association. and national repub- can committeeman from the state; eorge L. Sands, president of the Ar ansas Farmers union; c. Wilson, apervisor of the fertilizer industry aud Bradford Knapp, dean and direc- IT of the agricultural department of iAe University of Arkansas, all of hom are deeply concerned as to that hase of Ford's offer, which proposes he immediate manufacture of fer ilizer of high grade and it's sale to farmers at minimum cost
 Secretary Weeks then told MT. }acoway some things that have not erAtofore developed as to the view foint he maintains as to the Ford of er perhaps indicating that the Sec etary is approaching it with an onen asind and that he objects to certain seatures as not sufficiently safe uafalng the public interests.
 Held in Abeynpce
 The Secretary said that as yet the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-08-15

land should recognize the force of geograp phical and historical facts.
 Tt is those facts which govern the problems of British Irish relations. If they did not exist there would be no problems to discuss. I pass there fore to the conditions which are im- posed by these facts.
 We set them out clearly in six clauses in our former proposals and need not restate them here except that the British government cannot consent to the reference of any such questions which concern Great Brit ain and Ireland alone to the arbitra- tion of a foreign power.
 We are profoundly glad to have your agreement that northern Ire land cannot be coerced. This point is of great importance. because of re- solve of our people to resist with full power any attempt at secession by one part of Ireland carries with 1t of necessity and equal resolve to re- sist any effort to coerce another part of Ireland to abandon it's allegiance to the crown.
 we gladly give you the assur- ance that we will concur in any set clement which southern and north ern Ireland may make for Irish unity within the six conditions already laid down which apply to southern and northern Ireland alike; but we can not agree to refer the question of your relations with northern Ireland to foreign arbitration.
 "The conditions of the proposed settlement do not arise from any de- sire to force our will upon the people of another race, butt from facts which are as vital to Irelands wei fare as to our own. They contain no derogation from Ireland's status as 2 dominion, no desire for British Ls- cendancy over Ireland. and no im- pairment of Ireland's national ideals
 "Our proposals represent to the irish people an opportunity such as has'never dawned in their history be- fore. We have made them in sin cere desire to achieve peace but De- yond them we cannot go.
 "we trust you will be able to ac- cept them in principle. l shall dis cuss their application in detail when ever your acceptance in principle is communicated to me-.

 clared that Great Britain shall have all the necessary facilities for the development of air defense and com munications.
 Must Aid Military
 The fourth expresses the hope that Ireland will of her own free will contribute in proportion to her wealtf to the naval and military forces of the empire and assumes that volun- tary recruiting will be permitted ''particularly for those famous Irish regiments which so long and so gal lantly have served his majesty ir all parts of the world
 Complete autonomy in finance and taxation. with the agreement thai there shall be no tariffs and other trade restrictions between the tive islands. is provided in the fifth stip- ulation.
 The sixth declares that Ireland is to assume responsibility for a share of the United Kingdoms present debt and pensions. In default of an agree ment, the share would be determined by an arbitrator appointed from with in the dominion.
 The document proposes that the conditions of settlement be embodied in the form of treaty to which ef- feet shall be given by the British and Irish parliaments.
 "The form in which the settlement is to take effect" it adds, will de- pend upon Ireland herself. It must allow for full recognition of the ex- isting powers and privileges of the Parliament and government of norths ern Ireland.
 Can't Tolerate Force
 tr-A. tains the earnest hope that the ne- cessity of harmonious cooperation among Irishmen of all classes and creeds will be recognized throughout Ireland and will wecome the day when by these means unity is achieved. But no such common ac- tion can be secured by force"
 Decaring that union in the other dominions came by consent, the doc ument continues:
 Tn no conditions can they consent to any proposals which would kindle civil war in Ireland. Such a war would not touch Ireland alone. for partisans would flock to- either side from Great Britain. the empire and elsewhere with consequences more devas tating to the welfare both of Ireland and the empire than the con Il1Ct lO WntSh ti uSe ios pCtn SdiiSt this month
 The document concludes as follows:
 Left to lrishmen '"rhe British government will. therefore. leave Irishmen themselves to determine by negotiations between them whether the new powers wnicn the new pact defines shall be taken over by Ireland as a whole and ad- ministered by a single body, or taken over separately by southern and northern Ireland with or without d joint authority to harmonize their common interests.
 '.They will willingly assist in nego- tiating such a settlement if the Irish men should so desire"
 By these proposals the British gov ernment sincerely believes they will have shattered the foundations of that ancient hatred and distrust which have disfigured our common history for centuries.
 "The future of Ireland within the commonwealth is for the Irish people to shape. In the foregoing proposals the British government has attempt ed no more than broad outline of a settlement the details of which they leave for discussion when Irish p-o pie have significc their acceptance O: the principle of this pact.'' < The document is signed by Dav,d Lloyd George.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-08-15

entire matter was being held in abey- ance and that nothing of a definite nature had been agreed upon. and fixed policy of the government adopt ed in regard 10 the offer.
 At this point the Secretary pointed out that the offer of Ford would com pei the government to maintain a water power of S00,00b horsepower and that the plant would have to be operated by the government with the further provision that Ford is to be given what might be termed fran chise for 100 years. Secretary Weeks stated that 1t was his information that the horsepower of the dam at times would be as low as 100000 horsepower and therefore the gov ernment could not guarantee e00,000 horsepower, but further stated that if the plant were operated by the government that it meant that It would be free of taxation and prob ably would result in certain disad- vantage to the locality where the plant is located in Alabama
 He also voiced some objection to giving a franchise for 100 years, due to the fact that water power is just in the beginning of it's potentislities, and no one can say what the economic value of water power would be in the future.
 Probably Another Offer
 Secretary Weeks called attention to the fact that he had been assured that another proposition would be made to the government to take over this plant, but as to whether or not this would materialize he did not know, nor had the offer been definite ly presented Also stated that before anything of a definite nature would be done by the war department it was the intention to call into consulta- tion experts and authorities relative to the matter, and suggested that Mir. Mellon and MT. Hoover would-be con suited in the premises. At this point Secretary Weeks preached a new phase of the situation by saying that the matter of fixing a standard fer ti1izer was a difficult one, and that what might be good fertilizer for one section of the country might not bear fruits in another. He called atten- ton to the fact that the farmers Of the country were of the opinion that in taking over this plant at Muscle Shoals by Henry Ford for the pur- pose of producing fertilizer it would prove a great boon to the agricul- tural interests of the country and that in their conclusions they may be correct, but hat he wanted to be cer- tain that these results anticipated by the farmers be reached, if possible, with no consequent disappointments. Secretary Weeks pointed out these as some of his ideas in regard to the matter, but they were only tentative suggestions. Nothing having been mt mo a must necessarily rest in abeyance until it can be gone into carefully, scientifically and in detail by ex- perts, Secretary Weeks said, and all of these he intended to consult be- fore reaching a definite conclusion.
