ton. This problem will be solved by the equitable distributions of land which the government still possesses, by the restoration of these tracts of which communities of individuals have been illegally dispossessed, by the pur- chase and appropriation of large tracts whenever necessary, and by other means of acquisition authorized by the laws of the country. The constitu- ton of Mexico prohibits special priv ileges, therefore all kinds of property, whoever may be the owners and wheth- CT in actual use or not, will in the fu- ture be subject to a proportional pay nIent of taxes, according to a just and equitable revaluation. All property which may have been legitimately ac- quired from individuals or from legal government and which does not con- stltute special privilege or monopoly will be respected.
 "The peace and security of pa- tion depends upon the intelligence of its citizens. Therefore the govern ment will take pains in developing pub lie education.'
 The declaration adds that the pro- posed government would carry out pro- visions of the decree of December 15, 1914, stipulating that upon triumph of the revolution. the first chief invest ed with executive authority, would convoke elections for a national con- gress, which would call an election for President.

RECESS COMMITTEES MAY
 COME HERE FOR CONFERENCE

, If the legislative recess committee on
 the Judiciary completes its work within
 the present week the three committees which have served during the summer will convene for conference in Birmingham. This fact was made known yesterday
 by local politicians returning from Mont. gomery.
 As has been reported, the committees
 have been anxious to discuss with each other the work each respective commit tee has been accomplishing. The object in view was the elimination of duplicated suggestions and recommendations and se- curing the indorsement of the membership of the three committees of the work which each has done.
 Because of the fact that Birmingham is more accessible than Montgomery. cool CT. and has more attractions, this city

BIRMINGHAM AID CLUB MEN
 GOING TO CHICAGO FRIDA Y
Hoberg Says Business Men Who Are Not Active Members Can Gc as Delegates if Suitable Arrangements Are
 Made in Time

The fact that Birmingham has been so lions of the Associa ted Advertising clubs, renders the officials of the Birmingham Ad club very anxious that this year shall be no exception but that large delega- ton may go from this city.
 Fred J. Holberg, advertising manager for the Louis Saks Clothing company, has been appointed chairman of the Br- mingham delegation, and is anxious to get in touch with all advertising and business men who are thinking of making the trip. The Birmingham delegation will have a special car of its own, if a sufficient num- Der go to justify it.
 Not only are advertising men urged to 20. hut any business man who is inter ested in the betterment of business condi- tions in general is made welcome. This convention will deal with merchandising and sales problems from every angle and every merchant who goes will find that he Is well repaid for his time and trouble in making the trip.
 Tn the case of business men who are not members of the local Ad club, ar rangements will be made so that they may go as regular delegates rom tnlS city, as only regularly registered dele- gates will be allowed the privileges of the convention. It will be necessary, how ever, for such persons to give their names and addresses to Mir. Holberg as early as possible in order that he may make the necessary arrangements
 Birmingham has always made a good Impression at these conventions and has obtained much valuable publicity in this way. At other convention of the entire year are so many prominent busi- ness men gathered and thus at no other time can so much be done for favorable publicity for the city.
 The officials of the local Ad club are urging all members who can possibly ar range to do so to attend this convention. In its publicity, the club is using a strik- ing poster stamp. with the reading "Bir mingham's Going to Chicago. June 2o-24, A. A. c. w.

COAST IS RECOVERING
/" FROM STORM LOSS
Besides Death Toll in Erie, Pa,
i Nine Lives Are Lost in
Greater New York.

NEW YORK. Aug. 5.-Under clearing
skies. the Atlantic coast was beginning
to right itself today from the effects OF
one OF the worst storms in years.
The damage In dollars probably will
not be known accurately for a week. rs
the storm king laid a heavy hand on the
outlying districts where transportation
and communication facilities are slow.
The loss Is admittedly great.
At Erie. Pa. hardest hit Of all. rescue
parties were working feverishly today to
clear the streets Of wreckage that covers
many bodies. Latest reports have
twenty bodies recovered. and 1t Is feared
that an equal number still are covered
in the debris. No estimate Of the toll
Of Injured has been attempted.
Nine lives were taken in Greater New
York. and millions Of dollars worth Of
damage done. Most OF the lives were
lost In accidents directly attributable
to the storm Trees were uprooted.
roofs blown off. and traffic everywhere
delayed.
In New York harbor and along the
jersey coast for 100 miles an estimate
Of the damage is difficult. The fishing
folk lost heavily. Boats were torn loose
from their moorings. and either driven
out to sea or smashed against the shore.
Two schooners and several tugs went
down.
There was a constant stream Of aum-
mer campers into New York today. ON
Long Island where summer tent colonies
are numerous. little remained. The
tents and ramshackle bungalows were
chafr in the teeth Of the sixty y-mile gale
Hundreds Of rowboats and pleasure
crafts were blown away and smashed.
