WILL PROBE BELL
 BOOKS IN ATLANTA Experts May Go to Chicago
 and New York JUST WHAT IS WANTED
Rosser Report Not Satisfactory Be- cause It Does Not go Into Rela- tions of Bell Company and
 Parent Company

Experts to look over the books of the Bell Telephone company in Atlanta, perhaps Chicago and probably New York, will be engaged by the state of Alabama for that purpose, accord ing to a statement of Commissioner A. G. Lane yesterday
 The state recently authorized tue local attorneys fighting the Bell Tele- phone rate increase to employ experts to examine the books of the company and while the enga gements have not been made yet the examinations will take place before the case is called fur final adjudication by Judge F. c. Crow.
 It is understood that the state rep Iesentatives who are now handling the injunction case against the Bell con- pany are in no wise satisfied with the report made to the city commissioners by Auditor Rosser several months ago. While no criticism is directed to lhs, examination of MT. Rosser it is said that his examination did not cover ths relations of the Bell company to tas parent company, the American Tele- phone and Telegrah company. It IS gathered that one feature of the ex- animation to be made at the expense of the state will be the equity of toll rates charged and the royalties paid the parent company by the Bell com- pany on all operations
 It has not been announced vet who the experts will be but 1t is said they will be accountants of recognized stand<. ing.
 The examinations will be made jus. as soon as possible it is understood, in order to facilitate the hearing whs called up by Judge Crow next month

LANE GIVES CAUSE
 OF HIS RESOLUTION

The recent tax increase against the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power com pany, as well as other utility corporations which were appealed from the tax com missoners, was the cause of the resolu- tion of Commissioner Lane that report of all properties and conduits should be made to the city by utility corporations.
 Judge Lane said yesterday that the tax commissioners increased the tax rate val nations of several corporations and that the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company, as well as other com panies, had appealed. The city needs evi- dence to sup. ..ort the commissioners in the increase problems and the filing of the reports required under the recent res olutions will enable the city to gather a large amount of data otherwise missing. The cases wherein the report of the city will be used is expected to be called shortly after the holidays.

GAFFORD PLEASED WITH CREMATOR|ES  Likes Jackson Plant, Which
 Cost $45OO RECOMMENDS 4 HERE Will Confer With Weatherly Today. Believes Four Such Plants Would
 Be Solution of Birming-
 hams Troubles

After looking over the crematory al Jackson. Miss, installed there aiohs lines arranged by the citizens, frahh IT Gafford of the street department has returned to the city. It was an nounced from his office yesterday that the street commissioner would perhaps | recommend that four crematorles pc erected in Birmingham. MT. GaHord was well pleased with the crematorS at Jackson and said he was shoWh sN- cry detail of the plant by Mayor crow der of that city, who formerly lived In Birmingham.
 The plant at Jackson consumes 4o tons of refuse per day, according to Mir Gafford and cost for it's construc- ton about s4500 The plant at Jack son does not consume the smoke from the destruction of the refuse but MT Gafford was informed that in the eight years that the plant has been oper- ating in Jackson only one complaint mad been made against the smoke sent upward from the flames. The smoke stack on the crematory is 6S feet hlgh and that enables the smoke to escape high above residences and with no con- siderable odor.
 While MT. Gafford intends to hold conference with Commissioner Wealth erly before any definite announcement, it was said yesterday that in all prob abilities MT. Gafford would recommend that four of the garbage destroyers be erected here. One will be at Wood lawn one at North Birmingham one at or near the city jail site and one at Fairview It Is believed that such an arrangement would effectively cut out the long haul of garbage and will ma terially reduce the cost of the street department wagon transportation. The destroyer at Fairview would take call of the West End and Ensley section as well as the Fairvew section and would be a more central station for dense population than perhaps any outside the confines of old Birmingham
 Confer With Weatherly
 Commissioner James Weatherly, Who is deeply interested in the crematories, will confer with MT. Gafford today. Af- ter that talk it is said some definite plan will be outlined to be presented io the commissioners. If the crema- tories are erected they will be und Ar the direction of MT, Gafford and h's men. In this way the construction price of $4500 may be reduced.
 Commissioner Weatherly said yester- day that the question of crematories was nearer solution than most any of the items on the construction plans Of the commissioners.
 MT. Gafford said yesterday in speak ing of the crematory at Jackson:
 ''The crematory destroyed about 4s wagon loads of refuse while l was there The plant worked splendidly and l was very much pleased with It. The plant is capable of destroying abort 40 tons per day and there has been few objections made to the method of operation Mayor Crowder of Jackson went over the proposition with me anc I will confer with MT. Weatherly about it soon I personally think we need about four here and the modest cost Of the Jackson plant appeals to me very strongly. I daresay it will appeal to the city commissioners also

 A branch of the Holy Name society will be instituted tomorrow night at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament West End A plenary indulgence may be gained by each member, provided he receives holy communion on tne day of admission into the society How ever, it is not required of candidates to receive communion on the day of their reception. The Rev. Father Turner, pastor of the Church of the Blessed Sacrament, has about 30 appli- cations for membership in the society and the prospects are said to be very bright for a strong organization in West End, The members of St. Pauss Holy Name society have been invited to attend the reception Sunday night. J. F. Thomas. Jr.. who has been the efficient secretary of the St. Pauls branch, being a resident of West End, will become an active member of tie Lew body. He says lie hopes to see d large turnout from St. Pauls to give encouragement to the new members in West End.
 The Boys eho1r at St Paul now numbers 20 voices and on Christmas day at the 10:30 o'clock mass it will sing in addition to the responses three numbers of the mass--the kyrie Elei- son, the Sanctus, and the Angus Del Later on they will be able to sing the entire mass and the Introit and the Gradual as well. The Rev. Father Coen, who has especial charge of tie noys' choir, said yesterday that the young choristers were making fine pro gress, They take great interest in tle rehearsals, and are going 10 do their best to attain a rank equal to that of the famous boys choirs in this coun- try.
 The question has been asked ny members of St Pauls congregation why the altar choir does not sing the re- sponse. cl.aus Tbi Christe," at the end of the Gospel Before the boys look part in the altar service "Laus ribi Christe" was sung by the mixed choir in the organ gallery. Now it is not sung at all. The reason is simple. The rubrics require the responses to be said by one of the servers. It was never intended to he sung, A server does repeat the words, but in low voice. hence many think that no response Is made.
