ALABAMA MASONS
BEGIN MEETING
BY FRED IL. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, December 5.-(Spe-
al')-Masons or Alabama gathered
IN Montgomery today for the annual
meeting of the grand lodge of Ancient
Free and Accepted Masons and the
auxiliary organizations. The ses-
sions of the organizations will con-
tlnue through Thursday. Every coun-
~ in Alabama will be represented be-
lore the end of the session.
The annual meeting of the grand
chapter, Royal Arch Masons. was
held Monday, the sessions being pre-
sided over by w. l.. Lee of Columbia,
grand high priest. Officers of the
chapter reported that the organiza-
tions had prosperous year and that
an increase of about 1900 had been
reported In the membership. the total
now being more than 1880. George
FLEMING Moore of Washington, native
Albanian, and one of the worlds
most distinguished Masons, reached
the city during the day and will at
tend all sessions. The Masonic lodge
of Alabama is 100 years old, having
been organized in June, 1921, and
appropriate ceremonies will be held
in celebration of the one hundredth
anniversary.

gates during their informal CONVEX
sations with their foreign asso-
ciates.
They have, however, never brought
the subject to point to formal dis
cussiou. 1t is unable to say Just how
far the United States is willing to go
in that direction. Neither will the
American representatives discuss the
question publicly. but they are known
to regard it as frought with many
complicated possibilities.
In every consideration of a possible
treaty or international understanding
to replace the alliance, the American
delegates have kept in mind the pos
sible temper of the Senate should it
be asked to ratify such an agreement.
With two senators sitting as mem
bers of the delegation, it is assumed
that if a formal treaty were nego-
tiated, Senate sentiment would first
be carefully canvassed. An under
standing" would not require Senate
confirmation, but it is conjectural
how binding all agreement of that
character President Harding and his
potentiaries would care to effect.
With the reassembling of the sen
ate of the new term, there were IN
dications that senators were watching
the trend of negotiations with grow
ing interest and that discussion
revealing the opinions of some mem
bers of the treaty body
might be expected on the Senate floor
within a few days.

nitrates. After Mr.. Edison had spent
many hours at nitrate plant No. l.
he declared:

Mr.. Edison offered the opinion that
the plans were capable of producing
cheaply all the principal ingredients
for fertilizer except potash.
what these plants will do" ex-
planned the inventor, will be to turn
this embarrassed power of the Ten
nessee river now going to waste into
the burrows of the farm In another
form"
"Nitrates for fertilizer" he ex-
planned, are merely power arrested
by electrical and other fixation proc
esses and concentrated into the form
of crystals"
Mr.. Ford said he hoped that he
might get the property FOR the good
of the farmers" adding: II don't care
to own IT; want only to operate it.

Aside from Mr.. Bdison's indorse-

no intimation of what his report to

Whether the present trip of inspec-

and estimates of army engineers was
not revealed.
Before his departure Mr.. Ford ex-
pressed satisfaction over the result

lowing the failure of recent Wash

mayor. the chief of police and SUPER
intendents of the packing plants were
present.
Earlier in the day. number of
trucks attempting to cross to KAN
sas City, Mo. to make local deliv-
cries of meat were turned back by
strike sympathizers. One truck driver
was pulled from his seat and beaten.
Late today Mr.. Burton and Chief of
Police Simmer made round of the
five packing house plants and ad-
dressed the crowds which had gath
cred outside the plants. Mayor Burton
told the crowds that 1T was Illegal
under the Kansas law for them to
congregate outside the plants; that
it constituted intimidation, and that
unless the crowds dispersed on orders
of the police it would mean national
guardsmen would take charge of the
situation.
, In front of the Armour plant, the
mayor met G. w. Reed, negro, COM
manding the forces of strikers. Reed
had shortly before broken up a
threatening crowd. He told the
crowd that the mayor was going to
give it some advice and that he was
| going to advise them to follow 1t.
The mayor then made his talk, and
Reed urged his followers to dispense
and refrain from congregating at the
packing houses tomorrow.
The crowds dispersed at each
packing plant following the mayors
talk.
Meanwhile, a number of union Of
ficials appeared before the industrial
court and told of circumstances lead
ing UP to the strike. They said there
was dissatisfaction with the wage
cut and belief that the employees
were not fairly represented under
! the plant council system. The hear
ing will be resumed tomorrow.

ship went ahead with the plan for
open debate without tendency of any
bill.
Few Bills introduced
Few bills were introduced today In
the House and none in the Senate,
the relief from the usual swamp of
bills and resolutions at the opening
of new sessions being credited to
the fact that most measures already
had been introduced in the special
session.
The first important measure OF the
new session is to be called up tomor-
row In the Senate. This is the ad-
ministration bill for funding the
$40, 900, 100000 of allied debts, which
passed the House during the extra
session, but failed to get through the
Senate. The proposal providing for
