DUNCAN BACK FROM
 CONVENTION TRIP
Tells of Birmingham's Labor
 atory Needs
ADVANCE MADE IN WORK
Important Problems in Connec- ton With Determination of
 Bacteria's Presener

City Basteriologist E. M. Duncan re- turned Sunday night from his vacation. during which he attended the annual convention of the American Public Health association and the Society of American Bacteriologists in Milwaukee from Sep- tember to 10. Dr. Duncan returns with the conviction that Birmingham needs a larger and more thoroughly equipped laboratory for the convenience of Greater Birmingham.
 'F found," he said, that Birmingham is holding her own with other cities of like size and age in sanitary matters. but the larger cities are far ahead of us in the amount of money expended for the protection of the public health
 Among the present needs of the depart- ment Dr. Duncan considers those most necessary, a completely equipped chem ical laboratory, capable of making all analyses of water and food supplies, which, together with the meteorological analyses which can now be made, would give a complete test.
 As additions to the bacteriologicaI equipment, he asks for an incubator of cultures, capable of emergency work, and a small crematOry 10 burn up dangerous specimens
 He thinks that the department should be given larger quarters with better plumbing facilities and conveniences.
 "The convention said Dr. Duncan, twas composed of medical men from all parts of the country, chemists and bacte- riologists from the United States, Cam ada and Mexico One of the most inn portant actions was that calling on the government to place a national health officer in the presidents cabinet. q was interested in the discussion of the bacteria problem in the examination l of oysters An effort was made to adopt standard for judgment of oysters. and the matter will be standardized at the next meeting to be held in Havana, Cuba. Another interesting point was the chemical problem, testing the relative value of calcium hypocloride applied to purifying and clarifying public water supplies, with that of aluminium suphate. which is now in use. Further experiments will be made and it is believed that bet ter results will be obtained at a smaller cost.
 "A very important subject that came up was the standardization and placing of value on commercial dsinfectants. in order to establish the value and ca pacty of every disinfectant. It was re- ferred to a committee and will be acted on next year.

Council Will Elect
 Officers Tomorrow

The election of department heads and assistants will require the attention of the body. Beside the nominees of the party, the following are to be elected City Clerk H. E. Shropshire, Jr., Fire Chief A. V. Bennett, city physician, Dr. the new recorder, probably Robert the ne wrecorder, probably Robert Thach, and the Ensley recorder, either F. O. Harris or R. L. Daniel.
 The question of the authority of the present council to elect the new officers has been thoroughly discussed and it is thought by many that the new council would have the right to undo the action of Wednesday night. Several aldermen will insist that the matter be left to the incoming administration. but beyond any question the election will take place.

It is now Major Joseph Scully The captain of Company A, Woodlawn Rifles, was yesterday elevated to the office of major of the First battalion, Third regi- ment Alabama National Guards. He succeeds Major w. H. Long, whose term expired last month, and who did not ask for reelection.
 Major Scully's battalion is composed of Company A, Woodlawn; Company E, De- catur; Company F, Albertville, and Com pany c, Gadsden.
 Those who consider themselves politi- cal phophets declare that on January 1, next, it will be neither captain nor major, but Adjutant General Scully, as he is considered the most likely candidate for chief of the staff of Governor Emmet O'Neal
The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-09-20

The City Council will tomorrow elect not only the department heads, but every as- sistant in the employ of the city of Bir- mingham except those connected with the health department. The unanimous opin- ion seems to exist that the council should elect, and the ordinance already intro duced, providing that the assistant city attorney be elected by the council will be amended so as to include the 300 others.
 It is understood, however that practi- cally the present force will be maintained
 The viaduct matter will go over again, as the city engineer is still gathering data, and the Coosa River Development company's franchise will hardly be taken up, as the committee will not have time to consider it fully.

BISHOP BECKWITH
 GOES TO CAPITAL
HEAD OF ALABAMA EPISCOPAL DIOCESE WILL LEAVE ANNISTON AND MAKE HIS FUTURE HOME IN MONTGOMERY

While in Birmingham yesterday Bishop Charles M. Beckwith of the Episcopal diocese of Alabama announced that he would remove his residence from Annls- ton to Montgomery some time in October The announcement of Bishop Beckwith follows an effort of the people of Mont gomery to secure the bishops residence in that city. After every Episcopal church in Montgomery had invited Bishop Beckwth he carefully considered the question and has given his decision in favor of that city.
 It was pointed out in the communica- tions to the bishop that railroad connec- tions to Montgomery from all parts of the state were better than to Anniston and that the work of the church would be thereby benefited should he decide to remove to the Capital City. In his reply accepting the invitation of the people of Montgomery to live among them Bishop Beckwith stated that it was indeed diff ficult to leave Anniston because he had been in that city many years and his friends there held a peculiar place in his regard. However, he stated that iras- much as the people of Montgomery had taken the removal from the personal and placed it upon plane of better serving the church he would go to that city to live.
 Bishop Beckwith, with Mrs. Beckwith, was in Birmingham yesterday. During the day he held conference with several prominent members of his church and visited many friends in the city. On ac- count of having missed the afternoon train yesterday he did not leave for An niston until this morning at 1920 o'clock.
