WANT MORE DATA
 ON SUPPORT PLAN
Government Agent Returns and Will Get Statistics Birmingham's
 Imports During the Year

w. s. Larner the government agent, who visited Birmingham week ago to collect data on the need of Birmingham for sub-port of entry, returned to the city yesterday with instructions from the department at Washington to get fur ther information.
 Before presenting the matter to the committee which is awaiting the report of the treasury department it is necessary to have full details. On this trip MT. Larner will visit the merchants and find out what duties they pay during the year and several other matters.
 While this will delay the action on the bill short time, it Is not thought that 1t endangers Birmingham's chances to se- cure the port. In fact, since it was found out that Chattanooga is port of entry. Birmingham people have expressed little fear on the subject

ACCUSE COUPLE OF HIGHWAY ROBBERY


 Rosa Strong and Claude o. Shields were arrested yesterday afternoon by Detec- tives White, sigsbee. Justin and Zegler on charge of having committed high way robbery in Atlanta.
 It is charged that the two, with two others, held up a man in Atlanta about a week ago and robbed him of several hundred dollars. The criminals succeeding in escaping from Atlanta and Chief Jen- nings communicated with Chief Bodeker, with the result that the arrests were made. The Atlanta authorities were noti- fled and the two will be returned to At lanta as soon as the necessary papers can be secured.
 The catch is regarded as most im- portant one by the police authorities, as it is understood that the people were inn plicated in other crimes in Atlanta.
 It is understood that there will be fur ther developments in the case at an early date.
 The case is a very interesting one, as it is the first time in the history of the city that white woman has been placed in the city jail and case docketed against her for highway robbery. This fact attracted some attentions

MAKES INSPECTION
 OF DAIRY PLANT
ROACH VISITS SHADES NALLEf' RETURNING TO LOUISVILLE LAST NIGHT-IMPORTANC OF SANI- TARY MILK SUPPLY

Accompanied by John L. Kaul vice president of the new Cloverdale Diaries company. Neill Roach, the noted dairy man of Louisville, yesterday visited, ln- spected and suggested some improve ments in the Cloverdale dairy in Shades valley. He left shortly after returning 10 the city for his home in Louisville. He came here yesterday for the purpose or making the inspection at the invitation of the new owners of the Cloverdale prop critics who desire to install the latest and most modern equipment at their dairy.
 The expert and MT Kaul inspected the properties in Shades valley and While some improvements were suggested which will probably be announced later, MT. Roach was pleased with the equipment ai- ready provided. General Manager Moses' who started the work for better supply of milk in Birmingham, was With the party accompanying MT. Roach.
 'The proper supply of milk for any citvn said MT. Roach, lis of importance to every citizen. This is especially true as refers to infantc. Where milk IS used for babies it is absolutely necessary to secure the very best supply and to keep it free from any insanitary imperfectfons and pure always. In Louisville we nave earned such a reputation, and l am glad to say our pattern has been followed by others interested until our city is con- sidered remarkably well supplied with this commodity.
 "At the Cloverdale dairy. which vis- itcd today, MT. Kaul and his associates have started fine work. The methods employed out there are very good; in fact, as well up to the standard as could be where there has been no marked effort to get the technical opinions. l have suggested a few improvements which will probably be made.
 T am deeply interested in the efforts of Mir Raul, MT. Jemson and others to start this work. It is a campaign that should be carefully watched by the citi- gems of this city, and all millnen would do well to follow their footsteps as near as practicable. If the proper spirit IS shown there will be an absence of many epjdemics of illness which are almost al- ways traceable to an insanitary supply of milk"

TO EXEMPT PLANTS
 FROM TAXATION
COUNCIL WILL PROBABLY DECIDE TO USE THIS MEANS OF ENCOUR- AGING SMALL INDUSTRIES TO LOCATE IN THE CITY

The city of Birmingham has the right and in all probability will grant ex- emption from taxes to new industries for a period of 10 years. This meas ure, which is backed by the Chamber of Commerce. is now before the Bir- mingham City Council and will come up at the next meeting. It has the approval of most of the aldermen, but was referred to City Attorney Romaine Boyd for his opinion as to its legality.
 It is figured that this privilege will go a long way toward inducing new in- dustries to locate in Birmingham. Near ly all other cities grant the privilege. Bessemer has done so for a long time. At a recent meeting of the chamber 1t was brought out that several big plants had refused to come to Birming- ham due to this one detail.
 In the matter of the ordinance eX- empting industrial and manufacturing plants from city taxation for a period of 10 years, City Attorney Boyd will quote from section 201a of the genera. municipal code, general acts, 1907, page sol, which provides as follows: "Section 2Oh. The council of any city that alters and rearranges it's boundary line so as to absorb two or more cities or towns, shall Have the power to exempt from taxation for period not exceeding five years any industrial or manufac- turing plant. situated in the territory added to said city, provided said term of exemption shall not be renewed or extended. The council of any city or town shall also have the power to eX- empt from taxation for period not to exceed 10 years any industrial or man ufacturing plant that may be estab- lished in said city after the passage of this act; provided said term of ex- emption shall not be renewed"

May Start e
 War On The Gamblers

It is currently rumored that the head of a local detective agency that has been gathering evidence against the gambling houses in Birmingham and has made a report to Sheriff McAdory and that the sheriff will take action at once.
 When seen yesterday afternoon Sheriff McAdory emphatically denied that the report had been made. Further than that he would say nothing.
 There is a good deal of perplexity among the soft drink operators as to just what course the sheriff will pursue. He stated yesterday afternoon that he had nothing to say in regard to the prohibi- ton status except that he would enforce all laws as long as they were laws. which is regarded as significant.
 There is an air of mystery around the sherif's office in regard to intended ac-

tion against blind tigers. None of the authorities will say anything. They re- fused either to affirm or deny the rumor that has gained great eredence that some- thing would drop soon.
 As is known, the injunction cases set in operation by Sheriff Higdon will come up in the supreme court In a very short time. It is said that immediately after these cases are decided, if the injunctions are held valid, more will be issued and other steps taken to root out the blind tigers in Birmingham.
 It is known that there will be some &C., ton in the next few days against the blind tigers and men who are in touch with the situation expect that to be the biggest move made yet.
 The only reply made by the deputies at the sheriff's office Is, keep your ear to the ground b

Chnrle. w. Thatcher Talks


 Charles w. Thatcher, the mule team man, whose hobby is good roads for the whole nation, says the only possible ob- lection he has heard urged to million dollar bond issue in Jefferson county Is the possibility that it may increase taxes. In answer to this he says:
 "Something in the neighborhood of sloo,- GOO now accrues yearly from the regular road tax in Jefferson county. This sum would retire the bond issue under good business management in ten years. The increase in taxable value will more than pay interest on the bond issue. In coun- ties where bonds have been Issued TOT roads under good management there is no perceptible difference in the tax.
 Ut Is a wrong impression that bond issue at all times creates greater bur den on the tax payer And we must not forget that the investment of $1.oo0,000 In good roads, under a capable road com mission. as well as being a luxury. Is a business investment that brings an i'm mediate return of from 300 to 500 per cent on an average, under conditions sim liar to those which we find around Br- mingham.
 "A million dollars for good roads Is not an unreasonable amount. When Mobile is able to vote a million for good roads, Birmingham is trebly able. To tax the people $1 100000, payable in one or even two years, would certainly be burden. But when we can issue bonds payable In ten or twenty years there is no observa- ble difference in the tax. We simply re- tire the bond issue from the regular year. lv road tax fund. It is on the same prin- cinle of a farmer purchasing a farm by having s10o down and clearing away the remainder of the debt from the income or the farm. And there are thousands or farmers who would never own land If thev were not able to purchase it on the slow payment plan. By this plan nun dreds of citizens of Birmingham become owners of their own homes, where II purchased under the cash-down method +hev would remain renters. And there are hundreds of counties that would never have good roads if it were not for the re- lief of the bond issue
 "Every citizen should give this matter careful consideration
