Montgomery. March 1s.-(spe- cial.)-G0vernor Niivy announced tonight that he had not received the request of N. l.. Pierce federal prohibition ngent. for state troops in Shelby county for campaign against mOonshiners.
 The general opinion nt the execu- tive department Is ,.tnt 1t will be -necesnnry to decline v.ae request on the ground that the law did not in- tend the use of soldiers In that way, and that 1t would not be right to send troops into that county and neglect the other counties of the state.
 Birmingham dispatches said Mir. Pierce had found ie ,mp0ssibIe to suppress mOOnshining in that cOun- ty without ndditiOnnH anststnnce and that if state troops cannot be ob- tained G. J. Can't, district federal enforcement officer, VIII be nsked to send men into Shelby to carry on the campaign until the n0onshine liquor plants have been broken up.

Draft Dodgers Are
 GiUen Last Chance
 10 AUoid Publicity
--- By Associated Press

Washington, March 1S-~A last opportu- tunity for selective service law evaders to escape broadcast publication of their names as deserters during the World war bwas given today by Adjutant General Harris of the army.
 Persons who have reason to believe that they will be charged with evading the draft but who did not actually do SO. the adjutant general announced, may es- cape the odium of being publicly branded as deserters unjustly by communicating ali the facts of the case to him without delay.
 The final check of the draft evader lists is now being completed by former mem bers of the local draft boards. By the end of the month the war depart ment expects to begin making the lists public through the newspapers and py furnishing copies to city, state and fed eral police, detective agencies, the Amer ican Legion and other patriotic societies,
 In addition, Secretary Weeks will ask Congress when it reconvens to provide funds to enable the war department to pay a reward of $50 to any persons who delivers to the military authorities de- serter from the draft. Funds on hand now do not permit paying the full re- ward.
 The departments list of draft evaders, which, as originally reported to the pro vost marshal general numbered nearly 49O, ,00O names has been reduced by care full checking and by ithe apprehension of evaders to approximately 150,0O0 names. The final lists by draft districts are now being tabulated by the adjutant generals office.
 Of the list of nearly half a million names originally compiled, it was later found that more than 15,000 had actually served honorably in the armed forces or this country or the allies. By July 10, 1e19 nearly l64,0O0 of those on the origlnal list had been apprehended by the mlE- tary or civil authorities, leaving an ac- tual balance on that date of about 154,VVo names. Since then approximately 1S,Wo more names have been eliminated on the basis of information obtained from va rious sources and careful checking Of of ficial war service records.
 As a last check to preevnt as far as possible branding Innocent men as de- serters, the department had the lists carefully checked by the local board members, the adjutant generals office the states and offiicals of the army and marine corps. The report as finally checked at these sources are now being prepared for publication in the final lists.

Anniversary Of
| LEAGUE OBSERVED

LONDON, June 25.-(By The AS
ISOLATED Press. )-Crowds estimated
to number fifty thousand observed
the second anniversary of the birth
of the League of Nations today by
demonstrations in London's famous
public forum, Hyde Park. The coal
strike caused modification of
plans for pilgrimages from all parts
of the United Kingdom for partici-
patton in the rally. the demonstra-
ton being confined to the London
area.
Parades formed throughout the
city and marched to Hyde Parl:,
where twenty speakers, including
Lord Robert Cecil and the Arch
bishop of Canterbury, addressed the
crowds, which included representa-
tives of the forty-eight nations in
the league.
A feature of the celebra tioN was
the statement by Viscount Grey
regarding it, in which he declared
that the league could not be scrapped
but expressed the belief that the
president and people of the United
States desired world peace as much
as those in this country woh were
the strongest supporters of the

Report of Renewal Of
Anglo Japanese Pact
Does Not Please u. S.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The
United States is not pleased at pros
pect Of renewal of the Anglo
Japanese alliance, it was understood
here tonight.
The hope which has heretofore
been held by high officials of this
government that the United States
be specifically exempted from applis
cation of the terms of the alliance
now seems to be developing toward
opposition to a renewal of the past
in any form.
How the attitude of the American
government toward the alliance will
be made known to the world, If it
ever is, is matter of conjecture.
The study now being given by the
British and Japanese governments to
the question of renewal is of such
delicate and confidential character
that this government would find it
difficult to make known its views on
the Far Eastern pact.
If the United States remains ST.
lent, a conclusion probably would be
drawn that this country had no in
terest or concern in the alliance.
