JUDGE FBAGIN TO
 TEACH COMMON LAW
PROPOSES NleHR SCHOOL IN WHICH IMMIGRANTS WILL BE INSTRUCTED IN THE clvlcs AND LAWS OF OUR COUNTRY.

"The Study of Common Laws and Civ les" was the theme of an address made by Police Judge Feagin before the Greek colony in its hall on First avenue Sum day night.
 During the course of his remarks, Judge Feagin stated that he intended starting a night school in Birmingham for the purpose of teaching the American com mon laws to all the foreigners in the Birmingham district. He said in part:
 "I notice that 1sadore Shapiro has started movement to organize a night school fin connection with the Young Mems Hebrew association. shall con suit with MT. Shapiro in regard to es- tablishing schools for various national ities represented in Birmingham
 Several years experience as judge of the Birmingham inferior court has shown me that a large percentage of the ar- rests of the foreigners for the violation Of the laws Is purely through ignorance of the law on the part of the immigrants, but in the meantime we are making no effort to instruct them in the civlcs and the laws which govern our society.
 An invitation has been extended to Judge Feagin to deliver an address before the Syrian colony on the subject of es- tablishing school for the instruction of the foreign born
