ish Republican Autocracy by means
of British bayonets."
The Daily Mail underlines that the
main issue is whether the conserva-
tives will clear out of Mesopotamia
and Palestine.
These and similar views notwith-
standing, it is understood on high
authority that no change is contem-
plated in the foreign policy until after
the elections.
That the question of Britain's ad-
herence to the Mesopotamia and Pal
estine mandates will be an issue in
the approaching elections, appears to
be indisputable. What will happen in
the meantime, under Bonar Laws
Premiership, is matter of conjec-
ture.
The Zionists take courage in the
fact that Andrew Bonar Law is not un-
friendly to Zionism. Some apprehen-
sion is felt, however, in Zionist circles
over the reported inclusion of Sir
Joynson Hicks in the Bonar Law cab
met, and that Lord Balfour resigned
from the government out of loyalty to
Lloyd George.

"The Balfour Declaration" said Col
Wedgwood, "has become an integral
part of the British Foreign policy and
no Party will declare itself against it.
In any case such opposition would find
no support in the English electorate.
The Labor Party is firm for the COM

development of Palestine as the Ma

Party is opposed to all restrictions on
immigration and is in favor of

the Palestine office has given rise to
disquieting speculation about another

further fact that these two were, be-
sides DR.. Weizmann, virtually the only
Englishmen on the Executive, is also
referred to with some misgiving.

"Hinterland" Does Appreciate Good Music and Native Artists Are Much
 Preferred

In the blue Danish eyes of Reinald werrenrath. there comes smilin' through-a soul. It is the soul of man. It gleams through his smile, and it is soul that bridges foot lights and touches some thing vulner- able In an audience.
 Werrenrath Is great man, be- cause he was fussing at an alleged self-filling fountain pen that was guiltless when interviewer came to see him. After he had induced the pen to take in n fill of fluid, he quite practically put it to a test, and announced, Remarkable" It wrote. He then turned to the interviewer.
 The person to whom he turned had been instructed by a city editor to obtain an interview touching pri- marily on musical appreciation of the hinterland. A question incorporat- ing this general idea was propounded to the interviewer with as much in- telligence concerning 1t as the inter- viewer commanded.
 Now, the nobility, the genius of MT. werrenrath declared itself. MT. Wer- renrath is considerate, he is sym pathetic, he is painfully gracious.
 No Question Evaded
 I'll assure you" he began, with a hesitancy of charming sincerity, "I assure you that I have no desire to evade your question. I make 1t point never to do that; 1t Is so com mon. But just what do you mean by the hinterland.' The interviewer though male, Is given to blushing at certain crucial moments when atten- ton is unduly directed to him, espe- ata hnn atfantiOn tYnnfeE a waiting for information that he knows will not be forthcoming. He blushed, that is. to put 1t masculine ly. he turned confusedly red, and told the great baritone that he was not sure what he had meant, but that from the best he could gather, he meant the south.
 There Is an uncertain recollection that at this juncture Mir. Werrenrath laughted. At any rate, the interview proceeded heref~om quite normally.
 southern audiences prefer emo tional to intellectual mnslc." began Mir. werrenrath. That Is not hard to understand; indeed, I think 1t Is natural.
 Music in the south is young. do not say that patroniElngly, for music is young over all the United states for that matter. It Is only matter of degree, and when hear 1t said that certain section is musical ly immature, I say Give them time, They tell us. you know, that we have no distinctive American type of music. That is literally true. but 1t is also absolutely natural.

WARRIOR SERVICE WILL BE IMP ROVED BY PHONE CONTACT
Radio Stations Will Also Be Completed Soon-Upstream Traffic Increases, BaIanc-
 ing Downstream Trade

When a 22-mile private telephone line now being projected, between Port of Birmingham and Ensley, and radio stations being installed on barges and at terminals, are com pleted, officials of the Mississippi Warrior river service will have at their fingers ends latest data on all craft operating on the Warrior river and facilities for issuing instan- taneous orders from the Birmingham office regarding it's movement.
 Maneuvering of barges on the Warrior river, with consequent eco nomical handling of considerable amount of freight, has been seriously hampered by lack of communication facilities between the Birmingham office and the Port of Birmingham terminal on the Locust fork of the river. The cnly means of communi- cation at present are automobile. twice. daily train and mail. A tele- phone line to Cordova, the Mulberry fork terminal. has afforded satisfac- tory contact with that point.
 Authority has been granted by the county board cf revenue to tho Inland Coastwise Waterways service under which the Mlssissippi-W Warrior Rfver service operates. for tho rum ming of 22-mile line along the Port of Birmingham-Short Creek road into Ensley. At EnsIey the line will go into the switchboard of the Southern Bell company and relayed to Birmingham. There will be about 300 poles in the line between Port of Birmingham and Ensley.

 L. c. Antney, of New Orleans, as- sistant to D. F. Barry, engineering assistant of the Mississippi Warrior service, Is expected to arrive in Bir- mingham Monday for the purpose of inauguratfng the work which will be done with the cooperation of the county highway engineer.
 The work will be completed in about three weeks, according to a statement by J. D. Yodman. general manager. Wireless stations have al- ready been installed on & number cf the self-propelled barges. Work will commence this week on the station at Birminghampors. and this, with one at Mobile, which will be completed In two weeks, and one on each self

 Upstream Traffic
 Upstream traffic on the Warrior is increasing steadily. MT. Youman said. The barge Mobile" was unloading at Cordova Saturday 16 cars of salt. sugar, coffee, rice, rice bran. and canned goods brought up from Mo- bile and New Orleans. It will then reload with coal and go dlwn to Tuscaloosa, where 1t will take on 900 more tons of coal and 300 bales of cotton. At Demopolis 1t will pick up 1000 bales Of cotton.
 Thirteen, and possibly 1b. of the small non-power barges are being equipped with cargo boxes for the handling of car freight that re- quires protection from the weather. These boxes will be 32 feet by 110 feet and will enable the handling of more car freight traffic upstream.
 Growing appreciation on tho part of Alabama shippers of the saving in water transportation, Is building up Warrior trade, Mir. Youman said. All craft Is now employed at full force on downstream traffic, he said. and the trade up the river is showing steady gain

His father was Danish tenor and came to this country in 1875. MT. Werrenrath has made tours of the United States since 1907, and has sung in all except four of the states. The states in which he has not appeared are Mississippi, New Mexico, Montana and Nevada. The first three, he said, he hoped to visit, but he was skep- tical as to where he might find lodg- ment in Nevada.
