which grip the attention from begin ming to end
 It is presented as an Associated First National attraction. and 1t comes to this city with an actual record for establishing new ideals in screen pro- duction. Aside from it's reputed new technical perfections, there is a depth of panoramic perspective hitherto un, kno wn to the silyersheet and instanced by the passion of huge mobs rising in their might to overthrow the mighty and of which there have been plenty Of demonstrations lately in the form Of strikes and rebeIlions. One of the big scenes in this photodramatic specta- cle is the storming of a mammoth barricaded prison by a mob of 5,Oo0
 mpassioned citizens, all of which be- cones doubly impressive and realistic through stereooscopic character of the new photography which displaces the flat photography that so often makes the illusion difficult. By this system are pictured not only shadows and re- fleetions, but bodies and scenes which seem endowed with their true dimen> sions, it is said. This feature within itself should mark a distinct novelty which will arouse wide interest, since the progress of the cinema develop ment is being so closely watched by interested millions of devotees.

 The super-dramatic picture, Pas sion" comes to the Trianon next week. marking the beginning of the third week of the Trianon Grand Picture series This is the latest sensation in the way of a screen production, biz enough to successfully vie with the biggest stage hits on the same footing Heading a cast of 5000 persons is Pola Negri, the famous Continental star, whose artistic achievements in this play are said 10 be such as to place her at the top rung of the ladder of fame with the proverbial overnight" raridity. The story has to do with the meteoric rise and fall of a winsome little French milliner, who reaches the zenith of her glory as the ruler of a king and who finally arrives at her lowest ebb in the shadow of the hatred of millions of people who had come to regard her as "a vicious creature in skirts" when as a matter of fact in the last analysis, she was merely a wilful capricious, faulty girl who was oclish enough to want her every whim gratified while she had the oppor- tunity. It is said the play is replete with tremendous dramatic situations

O., April 13-Today's ses- sion of the second annual convention of the National League of Women the afternoon session being devoted largely to discussion of the preamble of the recommendations of the nation al board of directors and executive council as to plans and policy, as pre- sented by Mrs. F. Louise Slade of New York.
 The policy report as adopted in part by the convention, favors an increased mem bership on a broad educational basis before undertaking an extensive programme of Legislation. Get the American woman to the polls on cleo tion day as voters by principle, and not by mere party sentiment was the idea expressed by several speakers.
 Another principle embodied in the adopted preamble of recommendation on policy was that the state voters leagues will not be compelled to fight fo, legislation the national body is working for. but that the state league officers must inform the state mem bers of this Legislation and have no right to prevent discussion among their membership, of the issue in ques-. tion.
 Three standing committee recon < mendations were briefly discussed to- day. These were American citizens ship, child welfare and social hygiene.
 Mrs. Maud Wood Park of Boston, na. tional chairman. was nominated alone today for recollection by the nominat> in,r committee.

BITTER FIGHT OVER
 EFFORTS OF BOARD
 ID OEXAMINE BOOKS
State Insists it Has Ample Au- thority Under Revenue Act For Examination of
 I. c. |. Records
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau. The Age-Hera1d 22I-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, April Especially Efforts of the state tax commission to examine the books of various corpora tions with the view of establishing assessments for taxation were bitter ly attacked and defended before the supreme court Wednesday when the states appeal from the adverse ruling of Judge Richard " Eyins of the Jeff ferson circuit co'.et was submitted.
 The state insisted that it had ample authority in the revenue act of 1919 for the examination of the records of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company and all other companies. James Weatherly of Birmingham, who made the first argument for the state urged the court to consider every fea- sure. of the case before rendering d decision. For Gods sake, don't let this case go off on technicality' he urged, because it is very important that the authority of the tax commis- sion in the assessment of property for taxa ton may be Established beyond all doubt" a
 MT. Weatherly said he was afraid Of technicalities. MT. Justice Sayre Interrupted to state that his request that technicalties be avoided would lc4ulIt sOHit iitttI DiSldtlOH Oi the word "technieality."
 Former Associate Justice J. J. May field, who also appeared for the state Insisted that ample authority was con ferred upon the tax commission for the move il made against the Tennes- see Coal Iron and Railroad company and it's subpoena to the company to come to Montgomery with it's books and papers was not violative of the search and seizure clause of the fed eral constitution.
 FEAR DISCLOSURES
 Augustus Benners of Brmingham who made the argument for the com pany, insisted that the state proposed to go on q fishing expedition with the company's books in the hope that the records called for by the subpoena would furnish some information of value to the commission. He pointed

TRIPLE ALLIANCE

 FOR NEGOTIATIONS
(continued from Page one)

tCOntinued from Page one) wages should be fixed on a national. basis and that committees in each dis- trict composed equally of owners and miners. should consider exceptional cases requiring assistance from the state. Many owners criticized the government for going too far in this respect.
 BACKED BY LABOR
 While the miners are thus losing the support of the general public, organized labor is steadily consolidating on the side of the miners. The Amalgamated So- ciety Of Locomotive Men and Bremen. whose attitude previously had beer doubtful, decided today to strike with the ripple alliance. The executive of the Railway Clerks association also rec commended joining the strike. The cleo trical workers of London, but not of the whole Kingdom, threaten to strike. There IS still some question as to whether a strike of alb the members of the Triple Alliance is possible Friday According to the expectations of the respective sec- tons the railway men may be called up into strike without ballot. but the trans port workers are required to take bal lot before a strike is called.
 manifesto issued late tonight by the Triple Alliance in nwhich this body em- phaticalls Supports the miners claims. contends that such reductions in the min CTS earnings mo trade union in the past ever accepted, and declares that if ae- ceptea. it would be a disgrace to trade unionism of sthe world
 It continues
 WOULD ACCEPT CUT
 The miners federation fully realize that the present position is as bad as it has ever been. They are prepared to do tkeir share in helping the industry b. accepting reduction of wages of a na- tional and uniform character but not such as will reduce the miners below their pre-war standard of living.
 We are fighting for trade union rights as they are understood by all national organizations. We resent the suggestion made in government quarters that the miners fight is political one. We are not prociaim!ng revolution, we are stand ing shoulder to shoulder for Fundamental trade union rights. If these are denie l us now they will be denied the whole trade union movement later.
 'The fight must be won. British trade unionism will triumph against the united efforts of British organized capital in its attempt to destroy trace union attain nents legally gained"
 The first statement respecting the grounds of the miners refusal of the governments offer was signed by Her bert Smith, president of the fedora tion and Frank Hodges, secretary. It shows
