G. R. FROLING'S
FATHER DEAD
LOCAL REAL ESTATE MAN RE-
cEIvEs SAD NEWS THIS MORN
ING FROM NoRWAY-FATHER
k-EAVEs A LARGE ESTATE TO-
HEIRS.

This morning. G.. R. Froling, a local
real estate man, received the sad news
by cable, that his father had died at
his home in Norway. The word came
from Mr.. Froling's brother, who adj
vised him to go back to NorN ay and
look after his interests in the estate.
but owing to the European conflict
that is not possible at this time.
A year ago this month Mr.. Froling
made a trip to Norway to visit his
parents and three months after re-
turning to this country his mother
died. The death of his father coming
so soon afterward, MI. Froling is ex-
ceptionally thankful that he was able
to go back home and see them when
he did,
The deceased leaves a very large es-
tate to be divided among his heirs and
Mr.. Froling's share will be large. His
brother urges him to go back to he
old country to look after the estate
n Mr.. Froling is very sorry that it
is impossible as there is no telling
where the European conflict will end
or what countries will be drawn into
the conflict before it is over. He be-
lieves h a a trip would be foolish at
present. .

Some have said they rivaled those
seen at the recent North Dakota State
fair last month.
A crowd Of 1000 people drove down
to the section of the city to witness the
sight and view the celebration of the
patriotic Italians who were happy in
their memory of their native land.
All yer the United States, wherever
there are Italians residing, st. Roch's

gratitude to the saint who tool an ac-
tive part centuries ago in stopping the
plague in that country.
st. Roch was born at Montpelier
about 1926 and died about 1927. His
father was governor of the city. On
the death of his parents he gave his
property to the poor and set out as a
mendicant pilgrim for italy.
At Aquaperdente, he found the
plague raging and stopped there devot-
ing his time to the plague stricken
and curing them with the Sign of the
Cross. -.,"
He visited Casena, Mantua, Modena,
Parma. Everywhere me plague dis
appeared before his miraculous pow
ers.
In Piacenza he was himself strick-
en-. On his recovery he retired to
France where he died. On his breast
was found a red cross. His relics are
still venerated at Venice where they
were brought in 1885. Paul III in
stituted a c%onfratrnity under his name
and the Society of st. Roch is still very
strong in Italy.

 Be Abolished

 Years
Fly HUGH W. ROBERTS

Many men who will sit fin the legisla- ture nfter January are at the present moment preparing programme provid- ing for widespread destruction of sine cures
 Nevertheless, 1t Is safe to predict that comparatively few offices will be abol- ished. To people who are familiar with legislative customs in Alabama, the ex- pf ession of tho reason Is unnecessary. It is difficult to take soft bread out of one mans mouth when the power Is his to retaliate.
 In the beginning all men are patriots. They know that 1t is an unwise-rather a dangerous-act to pay men for worthless services. But later they are informed thah if they start anything" they themselves will bo put on the defensive.
 "If you take my office 1 will take your school" they arc told. If you reduce my appropriation you will get no money for your county"
 As a result they pool their interests" and proceed to rob Peter to pay Paul, with the state always In the role of Peter
 There are those who are preparing to abolish the office of immigration commis- sioner, fish and game commissioner. in- spector of mills and jails. cotton statisti- elan, the court of appeals and various other so-called 'unneces -ary attributes, not forgetting the recording secretary to the governor Courts in various sections of the state are the object of contem- plated assault. Certain schools. especiai- ly the state normal schools. are consid- cred as morses for future consumption.
 And yet it Is safe to predict that not more than one of the above offices will be abolished. although one or more of the others may be made integral parts of another department.
 There are six normal schools at the present time. four large and prosperous ones and two others, those at Mound vile and Daphne, which occupy secondary classificatiori., Because the four largo normal schools are so geographically sit- uated that one of them Is accessible to all sections, the two small ones could be dispensed with.

SECRETARY M'CLARY
 OF INSTITUTE WILL ARRIVE OCTOBER 26
To Open Registration and Will Be Closely Followed by Advance Guard of
 Iron and Steel Men

The advance guard of the American October @ and 30, will come to Birming- ham tomorrow week, when Secretary Nc Clary will arrive with his assistants and open registration rooms at the Tutwiler hotel He will be followed by other visi- tors from day to day until the entire number will have reached the city.
 Secretary Mcclary will have a suite of rooms on the second floor of the Tut wiler where the registrations will be made and as the meetings will be held in the ballroom on the same floor he will be very conveniently situated.
 It is the opinion now that the steel and iron magnates will spend more time in Birmingham than was at first thought probable. For instance the reservation lists at the Tutwiler indicate that with the arrival of the secretary others will follow right along. although the meeting does not open until next Thursday week. great many of the steel and iron visi- tors are anxious to get here and secure an opportunity of seeing Birmingham at the best advantage
 Judge Elbert H. Gary and Mrs. Gary will arrive on Wednesday evening at 10:15 o'clock from New York. Informa- tion to this effect has been received here. They will have the state suite at the Tutwiler. President James A. Farrell of the United States Steel corporation and Mrs. Farrell will arrive the following morning and will have a suite at the same hotel. It Is expected that Wednes- day and Thursday will see the biggest registration of the visitors.
 The local industrial men have not given out any plan of entertainment for the visitors. A committee however. from the institute has mapped out programme, and that will be followed to the letter. The big banquet will be held in the Tut wiler ballroom on Thursday evening, Oc- tober %, at which it Is expected 500 men will be seated. That banquet is an of ficial affair and for the members of the institute only. The first day there will be trip over the district while a like excursion will be October 90. The formal entertainments will cease with the second days trip. The final affair will be tho dinner at the newspaper club given for Judge and Mrs. Gary. At this affair d few of the visitors will be entertained. although space does not permit the pres ence of the entire assembly.
 Well posted industrial men in this dis trict are of the opinion that the meeting of the American Iron and Steel institute will be of paramount importance and value to this district. In addition to the iron and steel makers there will be quite a large number of newspaper men from various technical journals present.

UNDERSTOOD PROGRESSIVE AND REPUBLICAN LEADERS HAVE HAD CONFERENCE-IF RUMOR MATERIALIZES MORTON WILL COME DOWN

A fusion of republicans and pro sressives" for the purpose of casting the solid anti-democratic vote of the Seventh district against John I. Bur nett. democratic nominee. was report ed as probable development of the near future.
 R. Lee Barnes of Guntersville, as- scciate member of the democratic campaign committee. who has spen. several days in Birmingham was in formed yesterday that at Guntersvilie on Friday, Charles B. Kennemer, TO- publican leader. and Van Higgins, pro gressive" leader. who Is said to carry in his hip pocket the progressive vote of the district. had conferred and that the subject of the conference was the analgamation of the parties for the purpose of defeating Burnett.
 If the reported plan materializes pr. D. A. Morton of Boaz, progressive" nominee, will come down in the interest of Tom Stephens of Gadsden, repub- lfcan nominee.

Firs. of all, they have endeavored to poison the minds of the Ignorant with the tale that democrats in charge of tne government are directly responsible for the present. low price of cotton. Tn the second place. they have plans to pull down the progressive" nominee. pr. Morton, and combine with the pro gressives" in an effort to elect Mi. Stephens.
 "The Seventh district has always been considered doubtful and there Is no question but that MT. Burnett has a fight on his hand<. However, the tale of the republicans regarding the low price of cotton is such an Insult to the intelligence of the people that ii will in my opinion act as boomerang. And in the primary MT. Burnett re- ceive6 more votes than he had ever previously received in primary. As there is good reason to believe that those who participated in the demo- cratic primary will observe their vows expressed to the democratic party, there seems to be little hope for tho opposition.
 MT Burnett is expected home next week. Several strong democrats will make speeches in the county. notably Mr. Underwood MT. Heflin, Lieutenant Governor Seed. w. W. Brandon of Tus- caloosa.

UNUSUAL MOTION
 YATTORNEY MUDD
Argues Defendants Forfeit ing Bonds in Appeal Cases
 Should Serve Sentence

An interesting motion was made by Joseph Mudd. assistant city attorney. yesterday at noon before Judge S. E Green and Judge W. F. Fort of the criminal court in reference to the status of defendants who forfeit their bonds in appeal cases from the re- corder's court Mir. Mudd contendcd that when forfeiture was taken and an alias warrant of arrest issued the defendant should be turned over to the city and be required to serve the sem tence imposed by the recorder.
 He stated that under the present rule 2 defendant forfeiting his bond can keep case in court indefinitely by not appearing at the time of trial, come into court later and get the for feiture set aside and another setting of the case. Mir. Mudd stated that a defendant could repeat this method in- definitely and thus wear a case out" and cited many sections of the code out his contention.
 The motion was made on test case in which Attorney R. D. Coffman rep ItSenleu the ueIenudnL ana Wn0 re- sisted the motion. MT. Coffman d.- murred on the grounds that the foi- feiture cited in the motion had not been made final and that the case was still pending in the criminal court and, therefore could not be transferred to the city. MT. Mudd agreed to the prop osition advanced by MT. Coffman in the particular case set out in the motion but stated there were numbers of cases inc dncl<at where the iIldpToant a been made final and that the law cited applied to them. No action was taken by the two judges on the motion yes ter6ay as MT. Mudd will represent it in & case where the forfeiture has been made final.
 The statement was made yesterday that if the snotion was sustained it would result in placing a large nuin- Der of white men in the chain gang Of the city, as many forfeitures have been taken in appealed cases from the re- corder's~ court.

IDLE DEPARTMENTS
 AT ENSLEY RESUME
 OPERATION MONDAY
Shutdown Briefest in His tory of Steel Mill-Indus- trial Conditions Are
 Improving Rapidly

After the briefest shutdown in the history of the Ensley steel plant, oper- ations will be resumed in all idle de- partments tomorrow. The announce- ment several days ago from the exec utivo offices was to the effect that the idle departments would be resumed October IS. but some necessary repairs caused a postponement until tomorrow when the wheels will begin to turn again.
 The furnace division has not been affected seriously by the shutdown and has been in constant operation. The fact that the plant has been closed for such a short time will cause con siderable optimism here. In the past when the officials felt the necessity usually for some weeks and often some months before they were started again.
 In this connection 1t Is stated that practically Sll the employees of the steel plant who were out of work In their special departments were protected as far as possible in other departments while the shutdown was in effect. These men will be taken back to their former places.
 George G. Crawford. president of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com- pany, returned yesterday from New York, where he has been for several days, and gave the assurance that tue idle departments would be resumed to- morrow morning. Mir Crawford did not have any further statement to make.
 In connection with the general in- dustrial situation 1t is stated that the improved conditions expected have be- gun to reach this district The Gulf States Steel company. according to q report here yesterday. has successfully landed a very substantial order for steel which is to be exported, the des- tination being kept secret. This cor- pany's plant at Gadsden as well as it's furnace division has been operating steadily and there have been many signs of improvement in all depart ments.
 The American Steel and Wire com Dany plant at Fairfield and the other plants there are operating almost at capacity and the officials are feeling very sanguine over the outlook. While they are not inclined to speculate on the future, at the same time 1t is stated that as a general proposition the steel and iron men there as well as elsewhere in this district are not at all pessi- mistiC.
