IS AFTER CIGARETTES
MR. BxARs WANTS THEIR UsT
 PROHIBITED.
Member of House from Bount In troduces Sweeping Bill and Says His Chief Aim is to
 Pass It.


 Hon. ". E. Byaes of Blount County, introduced yesterday in the Alabama House of Representatives a sweeping bill aimed at cigarettes
 The hin forbids the sale or giving away of cigarettes. cigarette material or any substance for them in Alabama.
 The Blount County representative is deeply interested in his measure. He says he feels that the introduction and pas- sage of the bill would be a legislative achievement of which he would be prouder than of any other thing he might do in the Legislature. The measure is one of the most sweeping bills ever di rected at cigarettes.
 In discussing the measure Representa- tive Byars said:
 T am very much interested in my bill. I most earnestly hope 1t will pass both houses and become a law. am the father of six boys and desire to remove from them. as far as possible, the nefa- rious and pernicious practice of smoking cigarettes. I had much rather a man would give them a drink of whiskey than to give them a box of cigarettes. It Is my most earnest wish, and the wish of every father and mother in the State and of every other good citizen who feels interested in protecting the health of the youth of Alabama, to use every influence possible to. bring about the enactment of my bill.
 'I have been approached by q large number of Representatives and Senators who have congratulated me upon It's in- troduction and have assured me of their most cordial support. confidently expect it to pass and sincerely hope 1t will be- come a law.
 ''I hope that every mother and father in Alabama who has son will write to their Senators and Representatives ask ing them to vote and use their influence for the bifl."
 Mfr. Byars is proprietor of a hotel at Blount Springs.
