.FAVORS A WOMAN
POLICE OFFICER
Judge Lane May Recon-
mend Appointment to
His Associates

That woman police officer would
most likely be appointed by the com
mission upon his recommendation and
that the employe will exercise the dual
role OF matron and police officer was
the statement yesterday OF commis-
sioner A. o. Lane. The feminine po-
lice officer will be in the department
of Mrs. NJ. W. searight of the welfare
bureau whose request to Judge Lane
is expected to be followed by this ac-
tion.
The girls of Birmingham who are
subjected to affronts In moving picture
shows and on the streets will be under
the direct supervision OF tho police
woman. The appointment is expected
to be made during the next few days.
Commissioner Lane said yesterday
that he was very much inclined to ia
yor the employment of the woman Of
fcer and would perhaps make that re-
quest of his associates at meeting
not far distant.
If the commissioners employ a wo-
man police officer 1t will have estab-
lished the precedent for southern cit
les. Los Angeles has one officer from
the feminine ranks, while Chicago, New
York and other large cities have such
officers.

TRAIN SCHEDULES
AT THE POSTOFFICE
Duplicate of Train Board at the Ter

Considerable attention was attracted
BY those whose business took them
into the lobby of the postoffce yes
terday afternoon by a large black
board stationed in conspicuous place
along the wall just after entering the
main lobby, on which a schedule of
all trains in and out of Birmingham
vast kept. The blackboard is a new
feature inaugurated by Postmaster T.
ii. Aldrich for the accommodation of
the patrons of the postoffice.
The arrival and departure of all pas
senger and mail trains running into
Birmingham is given the same rs at
the Terminal station. When a train
is late it is so marked up, stating
just how much it is behind schedule.
The names of the railways ard the
numbers of the trains are painted on
the board similar to the method used
at railway stations and chalk is used
TO write up tae time of arrival whether
late or on time.
Mr.. Aldrieh states many times every
hour clerks in the postolhce are asked
for information in regard to trains.
This takes considerable time from the
work of the clerks and as Mr.. Aldrch
realized the importance of the informa-
tion to those na.Iing letters, he de-
cided to inaugurate the train SC. edLle
system.
