BELGIUM'S NOTE DOES LITTLE TO CLEAR UP MUDDLE
Shows Desire For ConciIia- ton, But Doesn't Do Any
 thing To Further Plan

BRUSSELS, August 2S.-Belgium new reparations note to Britain adds only nothing but confusion to the muddle of separations.
 The note, made public Tuesday shows a desire for conciliation be- tween England and France, but does little to further such conciliation.
 Belgium flat1y declares that she cannot accept any reduction of the percentage of reparations due her She points out that she has receiVeu less than one third of the payments in money and kind already made by Germany, and urges that her Just share must be granted.
 France has insisted on 26 billion gold marks, refusing any reduction. and despite the conciliatory tone or the Belgian communication 1t Is evi- dent that Britain stands alone In the desire to ease German payments.
 Premier Theunis, however, appar- ently considers that something can still be done to bring the allles to- gether. for the note pleads TOT "friendly and discreet" conversation between the allied premiers on the
 Belgium, holds that evacuation ot inc Ruhr is impossible before Ger many has paid, and supports the French attitude that such evacuation must be in ratio to payments me note declares that if passive reslsI : ence ceases, however, an lnVlsIole occunation" will be instituted.

AMERICAN WIFE. OF GREEK PRINCE. AT DEATHS DOOR.
Princess AnastaSia Fails To Realize Gravity Of
 Situation

LONDON, August 2s -CBy asso- ciated Press )-Princess Anastasil who formerly was Mrs. William B. Leeds. widow of the American tin plate magnate and who was married to Prince Christopher of Greece in 1920 is lying near death in her London home.
 At times she is in a semi-comatose condition. alternating with a lucid state, when she recognizes all round her. She experiences no pain, but is in q greatly weakened condition and has been una ble for sometime to take food beyond the very smallest quantities of liquid nourishment.
 Sir Thomas HOrder. eminent can cer specialist. who trAted Premier Bonar Law, has been called in with several other specialists for consdlta- . tion but it is understood they hold out scant hope for her recovery. pr Turner. an American phy sician. re- siding in Paris who treated the prin- cess during her last critical illness there Was summoned to London to- night.
 The hope Of the Princess relatives is that she may survive until the ar rival of her sister. Mrs. Green, who is passenger on the steamer Mauri- tana which sailed from New York today.
 Prince Christopher remains con- stantiy at the bedside of his wife ministerng to and comforting the patient, who apparently fails to re- alize the gravity of her illness. Her son, William B Leeds. who married Princess Kenia of Greece in 1921, and to whom the interest of the huge Leeds trust fund will revert in event of the death of his mother, Is also in attendance.

Mine Mystery May Be SolUed By 'Dead' Man

SAN FRANCISCO, August 2S.- Bumors that William C. Fessel, missing forty seventh man in the Argonaut mine at Jackson, survived the terrible blast, have been heard frequently and the Investigating bureau of the de- partment of justice has recently been called in on the case, it was disclosed here Tuesday night.
 The mystery which .has always surrounded Fessel, since the fail- ure to find his body among those of his 46 comrades. is believed near solution. A Jack son miner declares positively that he saw Fessel recently in Susanville, Cal, and that Fessel has since fled to Nevada.
 Federal operatives are on Fes- sers supposed trail. It is hoped to obtain from him story of just what happened in the mine preceding the fire.
 Fessel gained fame at the time Cf the disaster, just year ago Tuesday. His was the name signed to message on the walls of the mine, saying:
 "3 o'clock; gas getting strong. o'clock. Fessel."
 Then while the rest of the miners lay huddled together and slowly lost consciousness with the gas fumes overpowering them, Fessel disappeared.

SCHOOL TAXES APPROVED BY. DECISIVE VOTE.
One Box In North Birmingham Returns Totals FaVoring Or dinanCe Proposed At Initia- tive Election Tuesday
 RESULT MADE DECISIVE THROUGHOUT BIRMINGHAM Three To One Ratio Expected To Mark Success Of Meas ureS Providing For Continu- anCe Of School Mill Taxes

With only one box out of about 97 where hesults were known Tuesday night returning a favorable vote, the jitney owners ordinance went down in defeat at he hands of Birmingham voters Tuesday. The vote runs be- tween and to l.
 Returns from s7 boxes showed S,564 votes against the jitney meas ure. with 2,7S0 votes for it. Box in Precinct 42, Browns store in North Birmingham gave the ordinance 105 votes to 4s against.
 Returns from city boxes indicate that the 3mill and l-mill taxes will be approved by approximately 3 to 1. In the rural districts even larger ratio is expected to prevail.
 Figures on the school tax are: Three mill, 6,935 for 2,405 against; one-mill, 521S for, 2,28o against.
 Small Vote Cast.
 Rain, apparent lack of interest and generally prevalent belief that the jitney ordinance would be snow ed under are reasons given by ob- servers of political matters for tho small vote cast.
 There was more interest at some boxes about the school tax reinstate- ment election. some observers said, than there was in the jitney matter and more discussion of it.
 Tuesday started off with a slight threat of rain that grew to a prom ise and eventuated in downpour that trailed eff in a pin point driz- gle that lasted for hours, making things sloppy and dismal and taking all the pep out of what was left oI interest in the election.
 It was reported at the city hall at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning that some of the booths were not yet opened, which report was respon- sible for Che city f4niission pass ing a resolution advocating a more prompt method of attending to such matters by the election commission. Not in the memory Of the prover- bial oldest citizens has there been srch & patent and demonstrated general lack of interest in a subject of public veal as was the case Tues day. Old timers were recalling the election for this, that and the other that had failed to arouse much OK citement, but all agreed that the jitneys as provokers of public activ- ity were confined to pedestrians at tempting to jay-walk.

By 9 o'clock Tuesday morning, the hour set for the registration of Vis- iting merchants to the seventh an nual convention of the Alabama headquarters at the Chamber of Commerce was crowded, and soon thereafter the streets downtown were dotted by the red convention badges pinned to each visitor, and by the lighter colored badges of the glad hand" committee, fastened to the coat of each travelling salesman The hotel Hobbies were thronsing, and each incoming train sent it's con- tingent of new arrivals hastening to the Chamber of Commerce.
 Behind a long table at convention headquarters corp of young ladies assisted with the registra ton, and each guest, in addition to his badge was given a coupon book and ere | dentials, entitling him to all the courtesies of an authorized delegate, and an official program of the three days entertainment. By noon, near ly a thousand merchants and their families had come in, and over 100 travelling men. Rufus Fell. assisted by Mrs C. F.

The worm first stripped the plant of all foliage leaving the boil. a tougher morsel, for later consump- tion. The farmers were at first ter rified by this menace to their crops but at once set to work plentitully applying poison to that portion of the cotton which had not been reached by the worm, and the aYari- cious insect, eating the poison. died. and the danger was over. The army worm is easily controlled by poison, was the common opinion, and the farmers are watchfully awaiting it's next appearance. In some areas, particl larly in outlying fields near wooded districts. the boil weevil is bad; taken altogether, a fairly good cotton crop is expected. Corn as a whole, is reported good. Though in some sections corn of the first plant ings was more or less a failure, later plantings are doing well.
