 timony in Washington
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau. The Age Herald 221-9 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, June 24.-tSpecial)- At the urgent request of the United States Senate committee on inter- state commerce, the public service commission Friday afternoon post poned the hearing of the case involy- ing the proposal for an increase in street car fares in Birmingham from June 2S until July '. This was done in order that Forney Johnston coun- sel for the city of Birmingham, may continue his testimony before the Senate committee regarding the op- eration of the railroad systems dur- ing the war, he being the only eoun- sel for the security holders of the railroads before the committed
 The public service commission had decided to hear the case in Birming- ham June 2S and had so notified the city, the receiver of the street rail way system and all other persons in terested. They were informed in mo- ttces late Friday that the postpon- ment had been ordered but that the case would be tried at the Jefferson courthouse July [.
 Senator Albert B. Cummins, chair man Of the Senate committee on in- terstate commerce, sent the public service commission the following telegram, which caused the postpone ment:

SAYS CHINESE HAVE
 REASONS TO OBJECT
 TO RENEWAL OF PACT
By Associated Press

Atlantic City, June 24.--The Chi- nese people have good reasons to object to the renewal of the alliance between Great Britain and Japan, S. K. Alfred Sze. Chinese minister to the United States, declared tonight in an addres here befgore the New York State Bankers convention. He em- phasized that in discussing the al- lance he was speaking not as d representative of the Chinese govern ment, but only as private citizen of the Chinese republic"
 What Is the Anglo Japanese al- liance?" The minister asked Tt s a war-like measure designed by England and Japan to protect their interests in the far east. It's avowec object as set forth in the preamble of the agreement, has three-fold aspect, namely;
 "A-The consolidation and main tenance of the general peace in the regions ofs eastern Asia and of India.
 "B-The preservation of the com mon interests of all powers in China by insuring the independence and integrity of the Chinese empire and the principle of equal opportuni- ties for the commerce and industry of all nations in China.
 "C-The maintenance Of the terri torial rights of the high contracting parties in the regions of eastern Asia and of India and the defense of their special interests in the said re- gions.
 You observe that this alliance has a good deal to do with China, bu, China has nothing to do with 1t. Here is an agreement vitally affecting China. but China has not even been consulted in it's making. You VIII agree with me that any nation would resent such a treatment. The Ch' nese people therefore, have good req sons to object to the renewal of the alliance. They regard the situation as intolerable. The sentiment against renewal is growing in intensity and strength all over the country. Tho Chinese people arc aroused as na- ton and have raisel their voice against it."

Michigan Lawyer and BuSi- ness Man Will Succeed Roland s. Morris at
 Tokio Post
By Associated Press

Washington. June 24.-Charles B. Warren, of Michigan, a lawyer and business man who for a number of years has ben a prominent figure in republican national politics, has been chosen by President Harding for am bassador to Japan.
 Announcement of the selection was upon receipt of the customary as- aurances that MT. Warrens appoint ment would be acceptable to the Japanese government. Soon after ward his nomination was sent to the Senate, but reached there too late to be received formally at today's session. It will be sent in again whom the Senate reconvenes Monday.
 Although MT. Warren has been closely associated with the Harding administration, and at one time is understood to have been seriously considered for place in the cabinet, his selection as ambassador was a surprise to most of official Wash ington. His name never had figured in the long list of those publicly dis cussed for the Tokio post, and some of his closest friends had understood he preferred not to enter public ser vice.
 It is understood here that MT War ren expects to leave this country Tor Japan about August l.
 Important Tasks Ahead
 Upon arrival at Tokio the new am bassador will find several important diplomatic tasks awaiting his atten- tion. Administration officials regard ed the post as one of the most lm- portant in the diplomatic service, ana that major consideration was being given the task of selecting an ambas- sador. Now that the selection has been made, it generally is expected the remainder of the diplomatic slate of the administration soon will be completed.
 Besides the question of the Call fornia anti-a -alien land laws, the sub- tects which now are pending between washington and Tokio include such factors as Japanese control or Shan- tung, Japanese occupation of the northern half of the Island Of Sag halien and disposition of the lsiand of Yap, Informal conversations are understood to have been in progress here between the state department and the Japanese ambassauor' anu ~ is expected that when the new Amer ican ambassador goes to Tokio he will carry with him important 1n- structions regarding the stand or this government
 William Miller Collier, president or George Washington university, thls cttv. was nominated today by Presl- dent Harding as American amoassa- dor to Chile.
 MT. Collier served as envoy e1trass ordinary and minister plenipoten- tiary to Spain under Presidents Taft and Roosevelt He was born at Lodl' N T.. 53 years ago.
