CRAFT AND O'NE|LL
BACK FROM ST. LOUIS
Both Warm in Their Praise
of the Good Roads
Meeting

John Craft OF Mobile, president of the
Alabama Good Roads association, and
John W. ONeill. a leading good road
advocate of Birmingham. returned yester-
day from st. Louis, where they attended
the annual meeting of the United States
Good Roads association of which Senator
John II. Banl1head of Alabama Is presi-
dent.
OF the success of the St. Louis meeting,
the two delegates were warm in their
praise, and both expressed themselves as
being of the opinion that much good was
accomplished.
Mr.. Craft is deeply interested at the
present time In the meeting of the Ala
bama association at Mobile next week.
He stated that he had prepared his an
nual report which he would submit, that
delegates had been named from each
county Of the state, and that fine pro-
gramme had been arranged.
Each of the five gubernatorial can
dldates," stated Mr.. Craft, "has been in
vited to attend the meeting and go on
record in regard to state aid for good
roads, and good roads in general"
MIR. Craft said that the association
would not be satisfied when the candi-
dates had said simply that they stood for
good roads, but that each would be asked
to give his ideas In detail as how good
roads were to be obtained in Alabama.
In this connection 1t Is said that one of
the five candidates who has not in the
past actively supported good roads, is
now preparing statement to be sub
mitted at Mobile, this statement to be an
unequivocal committal, and promise in
the event OF his election, to labor long
and hard in the interest of a perfect sys-
tenn of highways.

BURNETTPLEASED
OVER PROSPECTS
Returns From Franklin Con-

turned to Congress
Al the Theatres

John L. Burnett, representative of the
Seventh district in Congress, and one
of the most popular members of the
Alabama delegation, after having struck
some blows for himself in Franklin
county, passed through Birmingham
yesterday morning en- route to his home
in Gadsden.
Il am confident of being retained in
the service for at least one other
term" stated the congressman. 1T is
true that for the first time in many
years j have opposition within the
democratic party. But ! have found
that my distinguished opponent, Capt,
l.. Z. Rainey, has developed no strength
save in our home county, Etowah.
"After having had heart to heart
talk with my people throughout the
district, l am really confident that
viii be permitted to serve for some
little while yet"
Mr., Burnett was really more conf
dent than he admitted. He was bub-
bling over. From his appearance, 1t
is safe TO state that he was greatly
pleased with what the people of Frank
lin and other counties of his district
had told him.
lie stated that he would return to
Congress whenever the lower house got
busy again.

The matter was put into the hands of a
special committee,
In her report of the committee on edu-

man, recommended that the daughters
not try to raise the $4,000. as they had
undertaken so much in the monument
work. The recommendation brought
strenuous and immediate protest. 1t was
with difficulty that President General
White kept n semblance of order and
even then many women were talking at

That at the present time the situa-
tion In the Third district is clouded,
but that In the long run Henry ID.

was statement yesterday by Judge a..
II. Aston of Clayton, supernumerary
Judge of Alabama.
''The struggle seems to be formid-
able at the present time,' said the
judge. Both sides seem to be con-
fident, | believe. however, that in the
long run Clayton Will win. There is
an attempt being made in the Third
to prove that President Wilson inter-
fered with politics of the district. This
can amount to very little, however. in
my opinion, because it is generally
known that when the President wrote
to Mr.. Clayton he had not given the
Third district of Alabama u single
thought"
Judge Alston expressed the opinion
that Oscar W. Underwood would score
handsome victory In the Third dis
trict and would carry the state by
large majority. He said, however. that
he did not underestimate the strength
of Mr. underwood's opponent, Congress-
man uobson.
