This Is One of the Newest Lavender
silk Dresses Featuring the
Long skirt.

While short skirts have held the
center OF the stage for many a sea-
son. indications are that those Of
greater length soon will be in favor.
This pretty dress shows how
graceful a long skirt may be. Il
is made OF lavender silk. The bo-
dice, rather quaint in cut. is slashed

well as those on the sleeves and the
neckline. Is bordered with peach
silk. which IS applied as a narrow

The skirt IS cut with generous
width and is decidedly bOuffant on
the sides. which accenuates the Ions
waistline. Instead or the usual hem,
a bind OF peach silk is effectively
used.

CHAPLIN STILL BRITISH SUBJECT

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
 Countless thousands of American movie fans who have chortled over the inimitable antics of Charlie Chaplin, will be surprised and perhaps disappointed to learn the worlds greatest movie comedian still is a subject of King George v of England and not a citizen of the United States.
 Somehow the impression had become preva- lent that Chaplin had taken out citizenship pa- pers, but evidently this impression was not in accordance with the facts, for the film come dian recently obtained removal of a suit in which he was defendant from the district court in Salt Lake to the United States district court on the ground that he is British subject.
 Charlie Chaplin came to this country from England about 15 years ago. He was poor. and virtually unknown. His success as screen ar tist has been achieved in America. His immense fortune has been accumulated in America. His pictures have been American productions.
 The great bulk of the millions of dollars paid in the form of admissions to movie theaters featuring Chaplin has been paid by the Ameri- can public. Virtually his every interest, fi- nancial and otherwise is in America. His home is here His business is here. His friends are here One might almost question whether Charlie has been as fair and generous to Amer ca as America has been to him.

and rank I. W. W. spouters are by no means dead in this land of liberty; but it is a good sign that the few who were deported to country where their beliefs were put into prac- tice anxious to come back to free America and those who were imprisoned during the war are seeking blanket pardon.
 There some earnest socialists, men and women who profoundly believe it's the panacea for society's ills The little band of Christian socialists in England left behind them memory of lives given in the service of the people. l have known some socialists whom I thought were led on by high ideals; but this is brief against bad socialism, the poison gas socialism based on envy and jealousy with demand for redivision improper division as respects the wages of machinery and the wages of labor, de- stroying savings, efficiency, and individual thrift.
 Let no one think that because the war is over and to a certain extent the danger of those in- carcerated as the enemies of the United States is passed on account of the ending of the conflict that many of those who have been imprisoned are any less desirable citizens. The President showed wisdom in refusing to grant blanket pardons for all political prisoners, but ordered that each be investigated and re- ported upon before he would take action.

America the land of opportunity! This is more than mere catchword, for it is the literal truth In these United States there is chance for every man and woman to do and be some thing.
 There are always those who are ready to cry fiat democracy is a failure, and those who make use of it are the very ones who want it to fail. Ever since this government of ours was founded there have been critics both here and abroad eager to pick flaws in it.
 We were told that democracy could not con- duet war. that democracy could not conduct government that democracy could not run railroads or handle great aggregates of capital. It was contended that there must be some tralized authority. What was needed was an Emperor King or potentate, with servants in- stead of citizens.
 The war taught the world that democracy will and can fight that democracy can handle the transportation problem better than the state and the freer that capital is the better the conditions for every one; and that the less there is of officialism and bureauracy the more chance there is for the individual to de- velop himself and add to the wealth of his country.
 Democracy is the happy medium between au- tocracy and socialism. The former was dis credited by the way it crippled Germany; but the latter is still moving force and must be reckoned. with both in America and Europe. Destructive socialism raises more problems at the end of the war than autocracy did before the war The one failed but the other has not yet been vanquished.
 There are those who are caught in the web of sophistry spun by some college professors, self styled intelectualsSand pink tea reformers, who patronizingly say to men and women of thrift who, by individual exertion have built homes and created businesses. Labor produces all things, and is dictated to by brains and capital Give labor what it creates, which is all things, and it can hire brains and capital at less than is now paid.'

ROMANCE

Clinton Scollard, in New York World. The past presents it's storied page Whereon doughty deeds inscroed; In legends of each faded age We read of heroes hale and bold; Gone are their golries, we are told The knightly tryst, the quest the fray, Yet, if we heed, we may behold There is romance in every day. These tales are ours for heritage How round Troys towers the conflict rolled, How Perseus faced the dragons rage, And Jason sought the fleece of gold; .. How Rome was builded high of old Where long the Caesars held their sway; Yet, if we heed, we may behold There is romance in every day. In darksome dangers to engage
 Sir Galahad rode OCT moor and wold; King Arthur and the aged mage
 Merlin, the chronicles unfold;
 Roland and Bayard are extolled, And Lion Richard cen as they
 Yet, if we heed, we may behold There is romance in every day.

RED FLAG OF ANARCHY HAS HAD ITS DAY

TAe Workers Party of America plans to "or- ganize the working class for the abolition of capital through the establishment of the work ers' republic" It has adopted song which begins, "We'll keep the red flag flying here.'
 The misguided individuals who compose this new organization, are behind the times. If they want some first-hand information on the futility of trying to abolish capital, by which the worker as well as the capitalist lives, they should consult Ncolai Lenin. of Russia, who has acknowledged that his cehrished dream is shattered beyond repair.
 People with moiety of common sense are no longer paying any attention to the radicals who succeeded in gaining a hearing during the unsettled times immediately following the World The tragedy of Russia is depor- able for humane reasons, but 1t has given man. kind valuable object lesson.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE EXCURSION TO MEXICO

There is great opportunity for trade be- tween Birmingham and the southwest and Mexisn- Much business in certain products has oeen done and more could be done.
 The plan of the Chamber of Commerce for business excursion to Texas points and Mexico in February is timely. Birmingham whole salers and manufacturers should embrace the opportunity offered to learn more about their southwestern neighbors and inform them about Birmingham goods.
 Mexico is potentially rich country. It is gradually reestablishing industry. It will need and take more American goods and greater variety. Birmingham is ideally situated, both by rail and by water, for dealing with Mexico. St. Louis, Cincinnati and other middle western cities have already conducted business excur- sions there and planted the seeds of larger commerce.
 What applies to Mexico applies with greater force to Texas, whose cities are among tho few that have vied with Birmingham.
 Seeing and knowing people leads to trade relations.

DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL
 WOULD BE A FAILURE

The same arguments used by southern newspapers, and others, in opposing the Dyer anti-lynching bill, are advanced by the New York World, which says:
 No newspaper in the country has more consis- tently and bitterly fought the lynching evil
 than The World But The World is not in favor of lynehing the Constitution of the United States in order to reach the evil. and particularly when so desperate q remedy would to nothing.
 This Is what the so-eaed Dyer Anti -Lynching bil being damned through Congress by the republican majority. amounts to. and all it amounts
 to. Lynchng Is made federal crime by this measure, and partieipators are subject federal prosecution and localities held nationally
 sponsible to pay money damages to the families of victims.
 If Congress vadly make this kind of offend ing federal crime. there Is felony msde
 meanor known to the laws of any state which be made \ federal crime and imposed upon the fed eral authority for detection punish ment. If then perchance there should remain vestises of the police and reserved rights of the states, they could also be swept into the of eentraiBation until nothing would be left but the nans. and that would become but memory.
 This pernicious and abortive piece of legis- lation is just what the World calls it, an at tempt to lynch the constitution. With all due respect for the prohibition law, it has done more than any other factor in the history of the country to bring federal authority into dis repute and if the Dyer bill is damned through Congress" it will have the same result in ad- dition to taking away police powers invested in every state by the constitution.
 The southern papers have long fought lynch ing and there are laws already in existence against this evil. There is little likelihood that a federal statute would be enforced any better, only way to enforce any law is to get the full weight of public opinion behind it. This is a truth as old the hills, but some of our half. baked legislators think they know better.

JAPANESE IMPERIALISM

William Howard Gardiner, in Worlds Work
 Attention should be invited to the probability, amounting almost to certainty, that be- tween the United States and Japan would pro- duce immediately much greater dangers to Britain than to America. The day that war was declared the British war office would have to issue the orders that would mobilize, equip, and transport to India more than 2,000000 troops. It should be added that such large part of the present British navy would be required for operations connected with the man. ming of India, that little support could be added to, the British naval forces normally in the Pa cific. If the United States were to fail to pre- serve the Philippines and they were to pass to Japan, it would be but matter of time before Hongkong, other British interests in China, and French Indo- China would pass to Japan, for the Philippines command the coast of southern Chi ma and of Annam. And with the Philippines in the possession of Japan her route to the Dutch East Indies, India and Australasia would be open. With the possessions of both Britain and America very seriously menaced in the event of Japanese-American war, it would seem inconceivabe that both should not work as one at the Washington conference to show Japan that her only safety is in abandoning her imperialism entirely. For, if she persists in her present course, she will bring on the war of the English-speaking peoples for the free dom of the far East. And though in this, at first, Japan would not be at war against other Orientals or against semi-oriental Russians, but against the race that commands most of the resources of the world and that never turns back If Japan can be brought to read our open mind as clearly as we penetrate her orien- tai adaptations of Prussian policies, she will see that not by imperialism but by peaceful industry is the true way for her to fellowship among the great nations.

STRUCTURAL FORECAST SEEMS
 A BRIGHT ONE

Indications point to extensive structural op- erations in the south in 1922. Easier money has brought road bonds to the market and en- abled them to be sold
 Atlanta has validated a bond issue of $S,- 000,000 for public improvements voted almost works extensions and the like. Oklahoma City has contracted for $1 ,0o0, ,000 Masonic Temple and Greensboro, N. C., for one costing $250 ,000. Atlanta is completing building year involving $11,000,000 and goes into 1922 at that pace. Escambia county, Fla, has just sold $1, ,000 900 of road bonds and numerous Carolina coun- ties have sold bonds. Chattanooga has f1oatsd improvement bonds.
 A permit for the development of water power on the Choctawhatchee river near Dothan at cost of $3,000,00 has been issued. North Carolina power interests have let a contract for an $S,OOO,OO plant on the Catawba river. Several Texas cities have building programs equalling the record ones of last year.
 Adjustments in the prices of building mater ial, in iron, pipe, wire mill products and in labor have taken place. With easier money ad- ded there is no reason why 1922 should not be a really great structural year.
