Eight Cases Brought Against President of
 Defunct Institution

Montgomery. June )- B. L. Gaddis. president of the Mer- chants Bank of Montgomery at the time 1t closed it's doors December 22. will not be tried on indictments charging violation of the state banking laws at the present term of the circuit court He won a con tinuance when the case were called yesterday. It is certain he will not be tried until July and probably not until November.
 Attorneys for Gaddis contended that as he was indicted only last week it has not been possible for ? them to make preparations forN the trial which will involve large amount of detail work, including the inspection of records of the institu- tion. Temple Seibels, circuit solici- tor. opposed the continuance, con tending that other indictments re- turned last week were bringing de- fendants into court for trial now and no special favors should be shown Gaddis.
 Judge Walter B. Jones ruled that the conditions surrounding the cases
 
 the clerk to continue the cases until the next term. Gaddis was indicted in eight cases on charges of non- compliance with the state banking laws. He will plead not guilty and will contend that he conducted the affairs of the bank in accordance with the laws.
 Attorneys for Gaddis are Ray Rushton, Judge c. P. Mcintyre and Tyler Goodwin of Montgomery and Judge Lloyd Tate of Wetumpka. by Mir. Churchill on Wednesday. He made an ominous reference to an analogous situation in the United States just before the Civil war there. The plea, he said. had been put for ward by Messrs. Collins and Griffith that free elections in Ireland were impossible under existing circum- stances; that the ballot boxes would be burned and the papers destroyed. This he characterized as a reflection on the Irish people, but he reminded all concerned that final ratification of the treaty still Is to be given Great Britain when a constitution is submitted by the provisional govern ment.
 He and Mir. Asquith pleaded for pa- tience and forbearance for Ireland and for faith in the Irish people, and there the matter rests for the mo- ment.
 Kings Generosity
 The gain so far from the gem erous actions of the King year ago is that the treaty has been drawn up and duly signed by Irishmen and that that treaty has been recognized throughout the world as so fair and far reaching that 1t has aligned pub lie opinion of the world on the side of Great Britain.
 This nation Loyalty and promptly honored it's bond In every particular and even went beyond 1t to meet the difficulties of the Irish signatories.
 Tho next word Is with the Irish people.

SAL III
BAR Der / / BUSHES
SECOND STEM RUST CONFERENCE
REVEALS PROGRESS MADE IN
ERADICATuNG PEST
(By Farm Bureau Service)

l (By Farm Bureau service)
Salt has been proved an effective
agent for killing the common barberry
bush, necessary to complete the life
cycle for seeds that cause black stem
rust. This fact, established by govern
ment scientists, was revealed to dele
gates attending the second convention
Of the Conference for the Prevention
of Grain Rust at University Farm, st.
Paul last week by DR.. Noel F. Thomp-
son, pathologist with the u. s. De-
partment Of Agriculture.
- DR.. Thompson said that common salt,
in the form used in the manufacture
of ice cream, when placed about the
base of barberry bush, had been
found to kill even the small roots in q
short period and that the danger OF
sprouts, chief objection to the grub
bing method of eradication, was ELI
minated. He also said that sodium
arsenite had proved effective, but rec
commended the use of salt because 1T
was easier and more cheaply obtained.
About five pounds are required for an
average bush. Salt should not be ap-
piled to lawns, etc., as there is danger
of soil sterilization for time.
The conference was attended by l5O
notable leaders in the agricultural
field from thirteen states in which
grain is grown. Resolutions unan.
mously adopted urged continuation OF
the campaign and asked congress and
state legislatures to aid the movement
with appropriations.
A first showing Of new motion PIC
ture, prepared by the conference, gave
reproductions of actual microscopic
views proving conclusively that the
common barbcrry bush is absolutely
necessary to enable the rust seeds to
live through the winter.
