You certainly are up against a proposition when you are eager and anxious to further good causes of your state and community, and a ruling against immediate action ex- ists as deterring hand against you.
 That's the situation that the Wo- mans club of Woodlawn finds the Third District Federation in, at the hands of the Alabama Federation of Women's clubs.
 Therefore, yesterday, at the clubs meeting at Woodlawn Mrs. c. B. Yandle, president of the organiza- tion, offered a stirring resolution which would allow several districts to make themselves heard in public matters of vital importance to the state and it's people at once, instead of having to wait till next May to at it's converting to ask the organiza- tionfs permission to indorse these movements.
 The difficulty presented itself most forcibly to the women at the last assemblage of the Third District Federation of Women's Clubs at Woodlawn, when the ladies found that they could not indorse the port amendment. or take any action to express themselves with regard to the fact that the Montevallo college for women may be cut to q two-year course instead of being given legis- lative support as four-year institu- tion.
 Barred at Home
 The women found that they could not even take action with regard to open sewers or such matters as might concern local public health.
 T {. this yoke-because by the time the next federation meets, the port amendment will have been voted on the legislature will have met.
 As it is, the fat is already in the fire and nothing now can be done on any of these questions, May being too late for work to do any good. The members must sit passive, said Mrs. Yandle.

Der has abandoned his decision to move

In a party conference, now set for Non
day a resolution not to displ2ce the
tariff bill.
Al informal poll Of Republicans was
said to have revealed that forty We're
against displacing the tariff bill, nine in
fuvor and twelve in doubt. Although
that might represent the Presidents
strength in secret conference, there was
some doubt as to whether vote ia the

Democrats were prepared to carry out
their plans to force the tariff bill aside
They were calculating that a vote
