Others who are contemplating re-
moval from Birmingham as soon as
possible asked that no publicity be
to sell their plants at a reasonable
figure at least. and publication of the
report that they wanted to leave Bir-
mingham on account of unsatisfactory
conditions here for the small manufac-
turing plants would undoubtedly hurt
the sale.
More opinions to the effect that the
weatherly smoke ordinance is imprac-
tical and works a hardship upon the
manufacturers were easily obtained.
That the terms of the ordinance cannot
be complied with, all are unanimous.
From talks with many of the owners
or officials of these manufacturing
plants yesterday the impression was
gathered that the Weatherly smoke or
dinance was the last straw upon the
camers back Things have been going
wrong for the small manufacturer in
Birmingham IL seems for some time

SOME GOSSIP HEARD
ON ALABAMA RACES
Clayton Discusses His Attitude-The
HObson-Johnston Race-Probable
Position of Bankhead in the
Democratic Senate
BY HUGH w. ROBERTS

1t is not considered probable in Wash
ington that Mr.. Underwood will become a
member of Mr.. Wilson'S cabinet. Several
reasons are advanced for this attitude on
the part of the "lookers-on,' first among
the number being the fact that in all
Mr.. Underwood would decline
were he to be asked to serve. As Senator
Bankhead, while in Birmingham some
weeks ago said. Mr.. Underwood will not
enter the cabinet as long as he is in pos
session of unimpaired mental faculties.
In addition, there are other reasons. 1t
ia considered probable that Mr.. Wilson
realizes that the success of his admins
tration will depend in part on the work
os Mr.. Underwood in his capacity as floor
leader OF the House. Another reason ad-
vanced is the probable deduction of the
President-e1eet that 1t might not be wise
to have two members of his official fam
lily between whom there is not the warIn-
est friendship, and between Mr. Under
wood and Mr.. Bryan it is understood that
a glacier might glide without undergoing
a change as to it's icy angles on account
of tepid atmosphere.
It is generally surmised in Washington
that Mr.. Bryan mas already informed Mr..
Wilson that 1t would be unwise to offer
