agreed with M. Poineare that the
government never Wolnd =

The premier's address to the dep

MAY ARREST SAILORS
England Threatens To F'orcibIy Re-

Charges of DISCRETION

BY T1s~ Associated Press.
London, July THE threatened
prosecution of many members Of the
ILeviathan's crew for alleged desertion
from British vessels Is attracting much
attention here.
The Daily Mail says the proceedings
will be taken by the board Of trade to
protect British shipping. Other re-
ports assert that the action will be
taken by the steamship companies.
The number of men who are threat
ned with arrest under the British
mercantile shipping act is variously
estimated at between 100 and 500. The
Daily Mail states that when the big
liner arrives at Southampton she
probably will be quarantined until the
police have identified each man.
There have been many complaints
of British ships being forced to re-
turn ort-handed because of the de-
sertion of their men, who have been
attracted by the high American wages
although they signed for the round
trip and were warned before hand Of
the l~nalties OF desertion.

Birmingham manufacturers selling to the Texas trade were informed Thursday by T. P. JudlSin, vice pres ident of the Republic National bank Iof Dallas. who was here on a busi- ness trip. that Texas was in fine form for an excellent year of good busi- ness following avery successful one which enabled farmers to liqufdate
 the greater part of their indebtedness and placed them in excellent condi- tion.
 We have had good rains all over
 Texas" said Mir. Judkin. and that
 means soil in condition for cultiva- jtion. With further rainfall as seems
 to be the present order. Texas farms should be ideally started to a good production.
 "Co-operative marketing in Texas
 has been a success. The farmers have liquidated most of their indebtedness and the country banks have realized
 on their loans. Texas will be a good
 market for manufacturers this year and Birmingham should get large slice of that business. owing to it's
 transportation facilities both by rail and water"
