NO COLLECTOR FOR
 THE CHAMBER DUES
Sibley Writes to Members Asking That Membership Dues Be
 Mailed Promptly

In view of the fact that the Chamber of Commerce has discontinued the paid collector, letters have been sent out to the members of the organization with reference to the payment of dues. The letter as sent out by President Sibley Is as follows:
 "YOUR COOPERATION ASKED.
 '1t will greatly help us in carrying out plans for fall and winter work of the Chamber of Commerce if you will kindly place in the inclosed envelope your check for the amount of dues shown on the statement, and send it by return mail
 We have discontinued the paid collect or believing our members prefer having all their dues go to keeping up the work of this body If dues should remain un- paid. you will receive a call from an as sistant secretary; but time spent in col lecting is taken from his other duties, and of necessity is paid for by the members.
 This Is business proposition, and I ask your personal cooperation in a united effort to place the finances of the Chamber of Commerce where the largest results can be secured for you as an in diyidual and for the city of Birmingham. There is an old proverb that He who pays promptly pays twice. and 1 thank you. in anticipation of your kind consid- eration. Sincerely yours,
 JOHN W. SHELBY, President
 sP. S.-A general meeting for all mem bers of the chamber will be held Friday night, october IS, in Hotel Hillman. You will receive detailed information later"

RODEKER STRONGLY CONDEMNS
 THE UNNECESSARY ARRESTS
VISITS POLICE COURT TO AS
 CERTAIN CONDITIONS AND FRANKLY STATES PRACTICE MUST BE STOPPED AT ONCE

As a result of complaints that many frivolous and unnecessary arrests are be- ing made by the police force. Police Chief Bodeker attended the morning session of the recorders court yesterday in order to ascertain the true facts in the east Quite number of cases were nolle pressed by Judge Black on account of a failure on the part of the arresting officer to make out a case. In several instances the judge discharged tne defendant on account of the fSNure to prosecute but always inquired into the nature of the all legged offense.
 Chief Bodeker was outspoken in his de- nunciation of the practice of making ar- rests without sufficient cause and stated that he would take the matter up imme- diately In many instances the parties arrested are not able to make bond and are thrown into jail and compelled to stay there all night, only to be released bv Judge Black in the morning. This tho chief says is grave injustice and will not be tolerated any longer. He stated that al least l5 arrests were made during tho week end .hat we're uiwarrantcd. aud that such practice must be stopped
 While he desIes the greatest diligence on the part of the patronnan. chief Bot~ e1er also requires them to be just. He will issue statement to the force in tais regard in the near future.

INSURANCE AGENTS
 FAVOR BIRMINGHAM
Many Write in Regard to Headquarters of South
 eastern Underwriters

In. response to letter sent out to the fire insurance agents of the state of Ala bama, the local Chamber of Commerce has received numerous replies, all of them in favor of the establishment of the state headquarters of the South eastern Underwriters association in Bir- mingham. The agents seem to be of the opinion that the larger population of Birmingham, the importance of the city in. state affairs, its railroad facilities and its geographical location make 1t the logical city in Alabama for the state headquarters.
 However. Montgomery is making strong bid for the offices, and recently sent a special delegation to Atlanta to confer with the officers of the association on the matter. delegation from Blr mingham visited the Atlanta offices few days later, but as yet nothing definite has been done toward selecting the place for the headquarters.
 The letter sent out to the agents of the state by the local Chamber of Commerce is as follows
 September 2S, 1912. ''rhe logical location for Alabamas branch office of the Southeastern Under writers association.
 You are aware that in the near future the Southeastern Underwriters associa ton will establish a branch office in the state of Alabama. Birmingham has asked that this office be located here, Other cities are making an effort to locate the bureau within their bordtrs However. we believe the claim of our city, in view of its population, importance in state af- fairs, railroad facilities, as well as it's geographical location and diversity of in- dustries entities 1t to the office.
 We inclose you a blank card, and would appreciate an expression of your wishes as to where this rating bureau should be located. We are sending this in order to show the executive officers of the Southeastern Underwriters associa- ton that it is the wish of the greatest number of agents throughout Alabama that the office be established in Birming- ham.
 We will appreciate your cooperation in this matter; and thanking you in ad- vance for prompt return of the card, am, respectfully yours,
