COMMENDS SPIRIT
 SHOWN BY ATLANTA
Writer Says Wrong Attitude Is Taken by Birmingham Over
 Rivals Victory
To the Editor of The Age-Herald.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 never lose an opportunity to boost Birmingham in my travels through the south. It is my home city and I am proud of it's achievements. However, I cannot commend the attitude of some of her cit izens in the loss of the great Methodist university. Some of the remarks and criticisms in today's Age-Herald appear childish.
 No far-minded person could regard Bir- mirghams offer as being comparable to that made by Atlanta nor could com mittee of just and sensible men have failed to recognize the superior claims made by Atlanta. There ought to be enough of the civic sport in us to frankly admit that Atlanta does things" in a. more business-lilxe manner and therefore usually gets what it wants. while other cities spend much valuable time in futile because misdirected effort, and more time in even more futile and useless ex- plantations why they didn't do what they weakly tried to do. To me 1t is all non sense to talk about school of technol- ogy, or any other kind of college, being of as great benefit to Birmingham as the S5,000,00o Methodist university would have been. Birmingham lacks the esprit de corps so remarkably developed and exer- cised by the Atlantans, and there was Lever more conspicuous example of the want of broad minded and concerted ef- fort than in the campaign recently made by Birmingham. The Methodist universi- ty would naturally have included a col lege of technology and in fact every de- partment of learning related to university work, and it would have been open to all men and women, irrespective of religious faith or utilization.
 It was wholly immaterial, in practi- cal sense, whether the university was to be controlled by one denomination or an- other, or by no denomination. The mag nitude the scope the cultural influence, the value in character and in dollars, the advertisement-these are the things that made the proposition worthy of Birming- hams best effort. But the subscription list discloses the fact that Birmingham as city, seeking better and greater things did not respond as it should have done. It will be observed that the bulk of the subscriptions was made by the Methodists of Birmingham and not by the citizens of Birmingham as a whole, whereas the benefits to be derived from what will probably be the greatest insti- tuition of learning in the south would have been received by all citizens alike I think Atlanta should be kind enough to establish school to teach to other cities and communities it's magnificent methods for civic advancement If Bir- mingham could only cultivate the Atlanta sprit-her unity of purpose and action no one could define the possibilities of her growth and development
