Ladies Called Upon

Dr. Parke went into details as to his plan and then was authorized to call upon those ladies present who wished to speak Some of the ladies called upon said trey wanted information rather than to disclose their attitude on the question now.
 Mss Chapman, in charge of the Central library, perused the work done by the board of education, saying that board had done a great deal to stimulate inter- est in the library. She said that 3600 new members were being added every year on a basis of the monthly enrolment, which is never sought by the association. All members must apply for that privilege. Miss Chapman said more room was the greatest need and if that were given growth would commence in earnest.
 Other ladies present who spoke very briefly included Mrs. John London, Mrs. Alex London Mrs. C. r. Orr, Mrs. w. Lowell. Mrs. Harrington. hiss Kate Earle and others.

MOMENTS CLUBS .|NDORSE PARKE PLAN Library Board Is Discussed
 at Joint Meeting NO ACTION IS TAKEN Dr. Parker and Dr. Hogan Speak for Board of Education-Commis-
 sioner Lanes Absence De-
 lays Action on Matter
NO ACTION IS TAKEN

The question of establishing a library board to take over and manage the five libraries of Birmingham is indorsed by nanv of the women's clubs of Birming- nam. according to official and unofficial statements made before the city commis- sioners yesterday afternoon by ladies ap- pointed to appear at the joint conference.
 Some of the ladies who attended the meeting said their clubs wanted info'ma- ton, while others said they had been as- sured that the movement initiated by .Df. T. D. Parke was approved and heaftiiy desirsd. \ few of the' ladies said, while no action had been taken by their indi- vidual cubs, yet they knew the senti- rnent to be favorable to the proposition The ladies asked for some information from the board of education as to why officials of that body oppose the diNorcs- ment of the libraries from the education al oard. pr. John l.. Parker, president saio he did not wish to make any ex- tended statement until full board was present and he had conferred with all his associates.
 Dr. Parke Speaks
 pr. Thomas D. ParSe, who is the author of the proposed change in the library sys- tenn, opened the meeting by saying that although Commissioner Lane was absent, it was desired that the two commissioners on hand hear what was to be offered. To this MT. Weatherly and Mir. Exum agreed. In explaining the pro. position Dr. Parke said.-
 "The inelemency of the weather is much against a full attendance of any ordinary meeting and for that reason think the presence of this delegation of ladies should be of great influence with you gem tlemen. They have ventured forth in such weather only because they arc vl- tally interested in the improvements. of the library system of this city.
 "The plan is to appoint members of a library board from various points in Greater Birmingham. That board will be responsible to this commission and will take over the work just the same as the board of education has. They are to serve without pay and must be men deep ly interested In the movement. The growth of the library system depends upon what is done very soon now, and think the appointment of this board will solve the situation here, as 1t has In many other southern cities. Of course. this commission may dissolve the board if it is not effective and that would be the end of it."
