Points to Increase of Crime by Ed- ueated Negroes and Reeom-

F I .I .a a
 Birmingham. June e.-(Specfal.)--- The final report of the grand jury vas submitted in the criminal court to- day.
 There is a roast for some justices of the peace in the county for care iessness in sending cases to the grand jury without the exercise of proper discretion which would save the county much expense.
 The grand jury report says that the .fee system fs as much out of place in a big county like Jefferson as an OK cart would be where automobiles now whiri."
 The grand jury also notes the need of new court house and jail in pirmingham and v court houss ~
 An interesting feature of the report refers to increasing crime among ns- groes. The jury found that crime is most common among the educated me- groes and that the negro woman is a very potent disturbing element. The jury takes note of the small amount of crime among the white citizenry and finds that the average number of white prisoners is thirty.
 The iurv had before 1t 32o cases. heard eso witnesses and returned ITS true bills. Twenty-three cases were passed on to the next jury. while seevnteen are voided.
