Legal Steps to Be Taken at Early Date to Declare Unconstitu- tional the Automobile
 Law of Alabama

| Montgomery, October 16--(SpeciaD.- - Publication of one report from Wash ington to the effect that President Tart will in all probability consider the name of Judge Thomas c. Jones of this city, in connection with the supreme court va cancy which has been occasioned oy death of the lamented Judge Harlan, has been going the rounds in this city. and has been favorahly discussed. It Is known that the distinguished Alabama jurst, who Is likewise an ex-governor or Alabama, is admired by the chief execu- tive of the United States. His ability as jurist is unprecedented.
 Taking advantage or the Alabama stat utes which enable municipalities to tax churches and church property owners for street and sidewalk paving, the city com mission of Montgomery has determined to levy the taxes in this city. Heretofore the churches have been exempt from payment of the assessments, but recent failure of the bond issue to carry has made it imperative that some step be taken to replenish the depleted city treas ury.
 It is understood that back taxes will be levied. probably as far back as 10 years.
 Headings of an aged mother were in part responsible for action of Governor Emmet O'Neal in paroling Moses Daniel, Montgomery county negro, who was sent up several years ago for second de- gree murder. In addition to these plead ings, however, it was represented to his excellency that the negro was a consump- tive.

Legal steps will be instituted in the courts of Montgomery at an early mo- ment to declare unconstitutional the au- tomoble law of Alabama. Attack is to be directed against that phase of the law it is pointed out, which provides that the payment of the required fee shall be in lieu of all other fees Of taxes. It is con tended that the constitution of the state forbids the exception, contention which, if found correct, would have the effect of making the law conflictory and therefore unconstitutional
 Under the same argument, it is con tended that section II of the revenue hill is unconstitutional.
 As the automobile law now stands all the license fee is paid over to the state, and municipality or county cannot im- pose tax or license, but the state divides up with the different municipalities or counties It is alleged that this is against the principles of the organic law.
 Section of the automobile act says. '"rhe registration fees imposed bS ;hi. act shall be in lieu of all privilege licenses which the state of Alabama, or any coun- ty or municipality, might impose, but nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent the collection of an ad Yalorem tax" Section II Is almost identical in it's references to the revenue bill.
 As against these sections, section 22l of the constitution says: ''The legisla- ture shall not enact any law which will permit any person, firm, corporation or association to pay a privilege tax, or other license to the state of Alabama, and relieve him or it from the payment of all other privileges and license taxes in the state"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-10-17

Carrying out the purposes of the stat utes of Alabama, Secretary of State Cy rus B. Brown has purchased a pair Of standard scales, which are to be used in testing the accuracy of other scales in the state. The law requires that all weights shall be accurate, and the scales at the capitol will be the official referee.
