me in a most emphatic way. At the

me and gave me on the bare
back four terrific resounding whacks
with the palrn of his enormous hand.
"'What on earth did you do that

a respectable editor and respr ctablc
I<aper. This is what he says about
<'ongresaman Heflin:
CONGRESSMAN HE)'LIN BREAKS ANOTHER
RECORD CONGRESSMAN J. T. HEFUN.
OF THE FOURTH ALABAMA DISTRICT.
HAS SET A NEW RECORD FOR
RABIDITY OF SPEECH.
During the consideration of the prohibition
amendment Monday the house was under the
two-minu'e rule, which means that each member
was allowed only two minutes to express
himself on the resolution.
Monday night Congressman Heflin sent to
the Age-Herald by telegraph some 3.700 words
of his *i*ech. with the introduction. "Heflin
holds house in rapt attention white he spoke
on the prohibition amendment, in part, as
follows."
Then the s|ieech began to come by wire.
Sheet after sheet of it rolled into the AgeHerald's
office. The telegraph editor thought
another deluge had broken loose. Of course
he is used to handling some 30,000 words of
matter by telegraph every night, but he usually
has control of the dike and knows when
the Hoods of messages are coming. But Mr.
Heflin'a speech was simply overwhelming.
When the first thousand words had reached
his desk he thought surely Mr. Heflin had
been sjatakng at least a minute and a half,
but as the flood continued he thought the two
minutes would soon I* up. When finally the
end came he sighed in despair and was heard
to mutter. "Two minutes I What if he had
spoken an hour."
[Lsiughtcr. |
ih. th?- modesty of this man!
[laughter.) The alleged patriotism
of a man who suspects yon people
every morning when you get up?"I
have suspicion of 11 iieople," and never
had t te courage to name them.
Yes; he sent the telegram "collect."
and wrote his own headlines. "Heflin
holds house rapt." I have seen the
house ra|? him several times. lUtugnter
and applause.) He sends a telegram
"collect." lint to continue the
editorial:
liui Mr. Hellin not only set a record for
rapidity. he was after inakiny another record.
so he Kent thin llood of oratory "collect."
Mr. Hclliri'x lony record in conyrcta make* hi?
Alahuma friends feel safe in the assurance
that the cotiyrcssman knows the Aye-Herald
maintain* a Waxhinyton bureau throuyh which
all it* telegraphic dispatches are filled. But
this bureau was too slow for Mr. Heflin. He
was out for rapidity records and wished to
show some real K|>eed. so to save time he filed
his dispatches without even the knowledge of
the Aye-Herald bureau. He wanted this
hurniny speech to reach the wailiny and
breathless iieoplc of Alabama while it wax still
hot. He no doubt, felt that extras would
beyin to fiy front the Aye-Herald's presses as
fast as the dispatches were received.
The Aye-Herald reyretx thut it was unable
to make room in its columns for this wonderful
two-minute s|iecrh. and it rcyretx further
that it was unable to accept his flood of inossayes
collect, and they were politely but firmly
returned to their source.
I l.i tighter.)
Now you understand why ho is
angry with me. He could not get his
telegram published alter lie wrote tin
headlines in any jutper and has to
pay his own telegraph hill. lie is
mad because I print my speeches and
pu> iui t iii'in.
I am getting sick ami tof being
bulldozed I'Vi'ij time I express an
honest opinion in the house. I have
served here otl' and on and find that
you are all pretty lair men; I believe
you are honest, but every time this
man from Alabama gets up in the
morning in Washington and gets his
trousers on he thinks that this country
is about half dressed. [laughter
and applause.J
He goes tilting down Pennsylvania
Avenue, usually in a long frock, with
a white vest, with perfectly maniculcd
eyebrows, and wonders that Pennsylvania
Avenue does not tip to one side
because he is all on that side. [Laughter.]
Then when he comes into the
house and walks down the aisle and
casts his eye upon the ladies' galleries,
a hero, an Adonis, and then comes
down here and bellows how patriotic
he is and how traitorous you are, even
without a megaphone he shakes the
walls of Berlin [laughterj, and that
gentleman feels that God and he have
a monopoly on all the good things and
have the world by the short hair. So
far as 1 am concerned, 1 am tired of it.
He said there are no secret treaties.
He did not know. There are the
they, have beeq pu^Vubllci^
weeks. He says he went to the state
department and they told him they
had not received any. Of course the
state department has not received
"secret" treaties, but they have been
published all over the country, and
one of the kindest things the New
York Post ever did for our president
was to publish those treaties, letting
the people know what they had agreed
on in advance, but Hetlin does not
know it. You can not blame him.
There are IS miles of bookshelves over
here in the Library, and they could
not hold what he docs not know about
these questions. [Laughter.] He
knows enough to get up here and insult
every man who has a feeling.
"Hcllin holds house in rapt attention;
makes a moving speech." He moves
them out as a rule, and those on the
front seats without umbrellas usually
move back a little to avoid the perspiration
and the saliva; but when he
bellows, oh, how bad you are und howgood
he is, und he strikes that attitude
so that the ladles in all of the galleries
can see him. 1 give him and his
friends notice now that I have hud all
I am going to tuke of it. [Applause.]
Why, when my friend Burnett asked
him why he did not enlist, his
knees knocked together. He has the
most patriotic mouth und the most
cowardly pair of legs ever put on a
human being. [Laughter.] Then every
once and a while he says, "God of my
fathers!" Why. the kuiser, that old
devil, is in the same business. He is
like Hellin, he even puts God in us
i no junior im-iiiuvi vi >?c .......
[Laughter. J "Hetlin holds the house
in wrapt attention '?written by Hetlin,
refused to be published, and he had
to pay the telegraph tolls. 1 think that
oUKht to be enough for hint for a week
and a half or two weeks; but all I
want to say to you. gentlemen?and
there are some things that I would
much prefer to say If he were here?
is that when he is asked to show- what
his patriotism amounts to, as he told
our friend Burnett, "I am willing to
sacrifice my sister's son, but I can not
go"?a great big, striking, line,
healthy looking man, and God Almighty
never made a man halt' as brave
as he looks. [Laughter.]
Mr. Chairman. 1 have restrained
myself, and 1 am glad of it. I am glad
1 was not allowed to speak yesterday,
because 1 might have gotten angry,
and I have one rule of life, and that is
never to get up mad in the morning.
It is what keeps me well and a little
stout; but I want to serve notice upon
him and those who are trying to drive
l>olitics that if they can name one spot
or place where I have ever tried to
bring my party in on this lloor, I shall
resign from here. I love my party,
but 1 would kiss it good-bye in one
minute to save one man on the Western
line todav. where our boys are.
[Laughter.]
Let him go with my boy, this brave
man. with the large lungs, with the
courage of a cook robin. Let him
shoulder u gun and go with my boy.
My boy has written me. and he says:
If any man attacks your Americanism. Dad.
and I come back from Berlin with only one
arm. so help me God. I shall take him on
upon any rules laid down for fighting men.
[Applause.]
Let him show his courage instead of
abusing his elders and his betters who
are willing to give up their families
for this country, and who will be silent
when we think we can help the fellows
over there. I am tired of it! If
the secretary of war Is human, if he
has made mistakes, for God's sake let
us hide the mistakes from the world
and from the enemy. We will win this
war. but we can not win it by these
men who have the brains of angleworms
and the courage of cock robins,
who swell and strut and sweat and
spit in this body, and tell you that you
are all cowards unless you agree with
him; who says that he can see within
your heart. Why. he does not know
the difference between a heart and
liver and bacon?never did have any
conception of it. [Laughter.] Again
1 say. let us quit fighting each other
and fight the kaiser.

AFTER WAR AVIATION
What is Being Learned Now Will be
Utilized When Peace Comes.
The role which America's young
aviators are to play in the commercial
and economic life of the nation after
peace is declared has been forecast
by Hear-Admiral Robert E. Peary, U.
S. navy, in a communication to the
National Geographic Society, a part of
which is made public as a war geography
bulletin as follows:
"That the young men who are
training for fliers in war service will
have an important and useful role to
play in the commercial, industrial,
and scientific growth of aviation is
apparent.
'When peace comes thousands of
men and thousands of planes will be
required for the mail service of the
future, for policing the air. for aerial
coast patrol, for aerial map-making
by means of aerial photography, for
exploration, and for rapid transit of
passengers and freight.
"An aerial mall service has already
been outlined tentatively in Europe by
both the Entente Allies and the enemy
governments. France and England
have had committees at work for
nearly 12 months on plans for utilizing
their air lleeta and air personnel
after the war. Bavaria has proposed
an aerial traffic service for central
Europe, and Prussia Is said to be perfecting
arrangements for a peace-time
Hamburg-to-Constanlinople mail and
passenger service.
"How extensive may prove this
after-the-war aviation service may be
surmised from the fact that already
airplanes have been j>erfected which
are capable of carrying aloft 25 passengers;
other machines have developed
a speed of 15u miles an hour,
while the record non-stop tllght tc
date is 1,004 miles, only 101 miles
short of the longest water gap in the
Atnerican-to-Europo air course, by
way of the Azores from Newfoundland.
The transatlantic flight is a certainty
of the next few months, no reasonable
person doubts.
"British authorities have expressed
the belief that it will soon he possible
to go from London to Paris and
return in one day, or from London to
Bagdad in a day and a half: to New
York in two days, and to Ceylon in
two and three-quarters days. Air
routes to India, with air currents and
possible landing stages are even now
being mapped.
"Kvcry obstacle of nature has been
overcome by the airmen-deserts, seas,
and mountains. The attainment of an
altitude of four miles is now almost
commonplace, and the Alps have been
conquered on numerous occasions.
"That America is not waiting supinely
for peace to be declared before
she makes her preliminary preparations
and experiments for the age of
the airplane is indicated in the establishment
recently of a well-marked
air route from Dayton, t'hio, to Rantoul,
Illinois, as an uid to the training
of aviators.
"This work has been carried forward
under the direction of Carl O.
Fisher, of Indianapolis, chairman of
the Mapping committee appointed by
the National Advisory Committee on
Aeronautics.
"The initial program for a marked
route consisted of serial j _nuryit,)e
painted in large white figures on barn
roofs, with an arrow pointing the direction
where a clear field of the
proper uera for safe landing might be
found, in the event an emergency
landing was necessary.
"With the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway as a central point, landing
Held numbers from 1 to 72 were painted
on barn roofs between the speedway
and Dayton, at an average distance
of about two miles apart. From
the speedway to Hantoul the field
numbers ranged from 1 to 2k; size
used, ti to Id feet long by 24 to 3ti
inches wide. The distance between the
fields on this end of the route averaged
about four miles.
"The details of this Dayton-Rantoul
ture of the task which the aviation
sign-post poinecrs will undertake in
mapping and marking the four transcontinental
airways, proposed by the
Aero Club of America and known as
the Woodrow Wilson, the Langley. the
Wright Brothers, and the Bell and
Chanute routes.
"The last of these routes, extending
from Boston. Mass., to Seattle, Washington,
via Albany, Syracuse, Rochester,
Erie, Buffalo, Detroit, Grand
Rapids, Minneapolis, Bismark, and
Groat Falls, will be a richly deserved
memorial to Octave Chanute, the pioneer
aeronautic engineer, and Alexander
Graham Bell, whose name is more
frequently associated with other great
gifts to humanity, but who In an unspect.-f^ular
way was a potent factor
in advancing man's mastery of the air.
"It was the tlnaneial support and
personal encouragement of the inventor
of the telephone which largely
enabled Samuel P. Langley to continue
his experiments with heavler-than-airmachines?experiments
which were of
Inestimable value to Orville and Wilbur
Wright, who finally achieved success.
"Alexander Graham Bell's support
was given at a time when the foremost
physicist of Great Britain, Lord
Kelvin (Sir William Thompson), the
foremost astronomer of America, Simon
N'ewcomb, and the foremost
business genius of this age, Andrew
Carnegie, scoffed at the possibility of
man's flying.
"The name of this airway will also
be a tribute to Mrs. Bell, whose gift
of $50,000 to the Aerial Experimental
Association in 1907-1908 made possible
the experiments wnicn resuueu m
Glenn H. Ourtiss and J. A. D. McCurdy
taking an active part in the development
of aeronautics.
"The Woodrow Wilson airway will
extend in an airline from New York
to San Francisco, with Cleveland, Toledo,
Chicago and Cheyenne the principal
cities en route.
"It is proposed that both the Langley
and the Wright Brothers routes
shall have Washington as their starting
point. The Langley line will end
in Los Angeles, passing near Wright
field at Dayton and within a few miles
of St. Louis. The Wright Brothers
airway will pursue a more devious
route through Virginia, North and
South Carolina. Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana. Texas, New
Mexico, and Arizona, and terminates
at San Diego."
Experiment of Far Reaching Importance.?Concrete
ship, "The Faith,"
has been launched upon the Pacific
coast She measures 7,900 tons. She
took the water six weeks after the
first concrete was poured Into the
more than that of a steel vessel of like
capacity. She will burn oil using 16"
barrels a day, and her reinforced tank
will carry 3'J days' supply. The engineers
and all those who witnessed
the launching are enthusiastic with
regard to her serviceability. She Is
described as expressing utility rather
than grace in her lines and looks as
if she might have been out out of
rock so massive is her build.
It will take 30 days to get her ready
for her trial trip. If she stands the
test of l.eavy seas the construction of
f>4 more concrete ships will bo immediately
undertaken. .She is well named
"The Faith" for although concrete
has long been used in the construction
of small vessels the largest concrete
boat hitherto built was not much over
6"0 tons, and those who took the risk
of building "The Faith" deserve much
credit for their courage. We shall
await further news of her with keen
interest and will chronicle It promptly.?Commerce

War-time Philosophy.?The following
rather clever article was written
somewhere In France" and is receiving
much attention in America:
"Of two things, one is certain: Either
you're mobilized or you're not mobilized.
"If you're not mobilized, there is no
need to worry; if you are mobilized,
of two things one is certain: Either
you're behind the lines or you're at
the front.
"If you're behind the lines, there is
no need to worry; if you're at the
front, of two things one is certain:
Kit her you're resting in a safe place
or you're exposed to danger.
"If you're resting in a safe place,
there is no need to worry: if you're
exposed to danger, of two things one
is certain: Hither you're wounded or
you're not wounded.
"If you're not wounded, there is no
need to worry; if you are wounded, of
two things one is certain: Hither you
are wounded seriously or you are
wounded slightly.
"If you're wounded slightly, there is
no need to worry; if you're wounded
seriously, of two things one is certain:
Hither you recover or you die.
"If you recover there is no need to
worry: if you die you can't worry."

LIBERTY BONDS? ^
THIS WEEK?APRIL 6TH?a new
campaign to floc.t $3,000,000,000.Ou of
Liberty Bonds will be started. We arthopeful
that our people will be more
liberal buyers of this issue than of
the bonds previously issued. The wur
will continue for some time yet. But
we MUST and we WILL win. To carry
It on, Uncle Sammy MUST have
money. Western Farmers promise to
be heuvy buyers of these bonds, and
special efforts will be made to Induce
Southern Farmers to buy, because it
is believed that the S'Uthern Farmers
will get more for their products this
year than ever before. Consequently
they will have more money than ever.
Lend some of your money to Uncle
Sum by buying Londs. It is an absolutely
SAFE investment Uncle Sam
will pay you back, and If he should
get to the place where he can't pay,
the money that YOU might have paid
for bonds won't be of any value to
you. Help Uncle Sam to win with
your money and More FOOD CROPS
and make what You have worth More.
