TALK OF RAISING GOVERNOR'S SALARY

Fred Wall, Mayor of Athens, Limestone county, and a neighbor of Col. Emmet O'Neal, governor-elect of the state, was in Birmingham yesterday and is author ity for the statement that there Is a general sentiment among all the north Alabama representatives in favor of vot- ing a raise in the salary of the governor from 5000 to s75Oo.
 'This can be legally done, I believe, during the first week of the legislative session, before Governor ONeal is elect ed. so that Colonel ONeal will receive the benefit The representatives up my way are expressing themselves in favor of the idea, and they believe that the present salary Is entirely too small for an executive who gives his whole time to the work of the state.
 .'The same legislators will back the move to erect a governors home in Mont gomery. Alabama does not need a man. sion. but home, comfortable and con venient, should be provided for the chief executive, so that his family may enjoy the privacy and he may have the pleas ures of home life. If 1 am not mistaken, both of these measures will pass the legislature in the early part of this ses- sion. Our representatives are going down there to hustle and are opposed to nig- gardly legislation. They are not trying to play politics, and they mean busi- ness"

BIRMINGHAM TO HAVE
 ANTO FIRE ENGINE

F ire Chief A. V. Bennett has just re- ceived information that shortly after the first of next month Birmingham is to have the distinction of being the only city in the world with motordriven fire en- zine
 The horse-driven engine which is being converted into an automobile by the man. ufacturer is almost completed It will be propelled by 90-horse power motor. but tie pumps will continue to be run by steam.
 New York will be the second city in the world to own such an engine, that city having followed Birmingham's example and ordered one of her horse-drawn en- zines converted. There are many motor chemical and hose wagons, but this will be absolutely the first fire engine.

It was announced a few days ago that officers of the company would gather here today at which time the resignation of John H. Adams as vice president would be rendered and prob ably accepted
 The meeting, it is stated, will not take up any other matters except possibly the appointment of successor to the retir- ing vice president.
 No official announcement has been made either by Mr. Adams or by the com- pany's local officers regarding his pro- posed resignation.
 The meeting and the subsequent an- nouncement which is expected will be awaited with great deal of interest in local industrial circles.
 MT. Adams, who rumors have it will re- sign, is well known in industrial circles, and it is probable if he does resign that he will be offered a lucrative position by some other company.

BIG HATS BARRED FROM

NEW YORK, April 5.-Women pa
rishioners of the Church of st. Mary,

eschew the current varieties
of spring millinery or stay away from
church. Their pastor, the Rev. Charles
Wightman, in the ultimatum which he
has delivered to them, says:
Our church is able to accommodate
only 275 persons. Women with big
hats take UP twice as much room as Is
necessary to seat them. The hats
make it difficult for men either to OBJ
tain seats or to observe the services
With the big hats two women have
difficulty in n pew, and often it Is
necessary for one woman to occupy an
entire seat. The small hat is the hat
for church-going."
