 CITY GOVERNMENT
Formal Request Made to the Commission by Directors
 of Associated Charities

A formal request that the city take over the Associated Charities was yes terday made by a committee from the board of directors fthat organization which appeared before the city commis- sion.
 The committee was composed of H. Key Milner. Robert Jemison, George C.. Crawford and l.. Sevier The reason that the city take over the association. as advanced by the committee, was because it was without sufficient funds to op- crate.
 Speeches were made by all members of the committed each stressing the much good work that has been done by the association in Birmingham. They stated the present board of directors would be glad to aid the city in it's conduct of the organization in every way possible. It was suggested that should any legal barriers arise to the consolidation of the association as one of the departments of the city that such could be remedied by the present ses- sion of the legislature. The commissioners stated that they understood the board of public welfare was now considering plan for the con solidation of the Associated Charities with the city and that report from it would be awaited before any action | is taken.

 cessation of such construction in this community Birmingham being new, can set better standard in housing conditions than many cities by reason of the fact that this city is young and has not made many grave errors. The city has done pretty well so far, but if the tendency to build low houses and have common water supply for several houses is con- tinued the situation here will not be very attractive.
 q would strongly recommend the enact ment of building code to take care of your development. In this way you will eliminate the possible errors and thereby alleviate the future need for legislation" 1 There will be no session of the Sociolog- l ical congress today.

Montgomery, May 4.-tSpecial. )--Gov- ernor Henderson today issued procla- nation designating Sunday, May 9, as Mothers Day. and called upon all Ala bamians "to celebrate it as appreciative citizens of great commonwealth and as loyal Amerieans.'
 American mothers are the finest products of our civilization and as such are the beacon lights of the world said the governor. We are at peace today, because out of the fullness of life has come the manly virtues and womanly charms that have given to our sons and daughters the vision of newer race saved by charity, redeemed by broth erhood, and sanctified by benevolenee." Following is his proelamation: "Whether the name of mother be shouted from the hill tops, whispered among the caves, or proclaimed in the marts of trade, 1t carries with 1t the consciousness of abounding joys and the sweep of blessed memories, unchal lenged by circumstances and unabated by time To think of her is to be better and stronger, to praise her is to be just
  tural and secure.
 "In setting apart a special day to be known as Mothers Day we do homage to one whose silent strength Is the na- tions surest source of justice, freedom and truth.
 At Peace Today
 American mothers are the finest pro- ducts of our civilization and as such are the beacon lights of the world We are at peace today, because out of the l fullness of her life has come the man | ly virtues and womanly charms tha' 1 have given to our sons and daughters | the vision of a newer race saved by
 charity, redeemed by brotherhood anc | sanctioned by benev olence.

 As chief executive I hereby commend the beautiful custom of paying jus and loving tribute to the mothers O | Alabama. Let us shower upon then fondest recollections. letters of grat itude, kisses of devotion and flowers

 Comparing the financial problems of Great Britain and Germany, MT. Lloyd George in his speech remarked that while British imports had increased enormously and exports had decreased considerably, both the exports and imports of Ger many had been cut off by the British navy.
 ister, MT. Lloyd added this made Great Britain better off but from the point of view of a finance minister her position was more difficult. In the or dinary year. the chancellor continued 1 British imports ranged $650.000, 900 above | exports. but this year they would be | &, o,0oo exclusive of government pur- chases.
 I Regarding Recruiting l Referring to the question of discrm- | nation in recruiting. the chancellor said he thought the allies ought to determine 1 the part Great Britain should play in the combination and the best service she 1 could render. She could he declared keep command of the sea. and that was l a allies, which was essential to their uti- mate success, especially if the war were prolonged. She could maintain a grea' | army on a continental scale, he contin l ued and third service was one shs | had rendered in the Napoleonic days

 Great Britain, said MT. Lloyd-George
 could do the first and third of thes' | things but the second she could do onl,
 within certain limits. She had raised an enormous army, but the time ha, come for discriminating in recruiting within suggested limits However, ther was a great boom for recruiting.
 The chancellor then caused a smile O
 relief by announcing that there wouls be no fresh taxation. He said he woul'
 confine himself at present to asking tn
 house to renew the income tax on tn
 scale announced in November, but witt
 some modification. If, however, the wa
 was prolonged, the chancellor added.
 would be the duty of the house to con
 sider what other contribution the com
 munity could make and in what othe form to enable Great Britain to carr
 on the war.
 'It is vital for the successful conduc of the war, and to help finance tn
 allies. that our national savings shoul'
 increase" the chancellor said
