Teutons Sending Armies
Against Allies in Serbia
rBy Telegraph to The Tribune

Chicago. Nov. 17.-Oswald F.
Schuette cables "The Daily News to-
day from Berlin:
While the German, Austrian and Bull
garian forces continue unchecked their
advance against the Serbians from the
north the Macedonian battlefields in
the southern part of Serbia are getting
into the limelight, for this IL where the
Allies are trying to save at least a
part of the Serbian army. There the
Bulgarians are fighting alone, no re-
ports having yet been received OF Ger
man, Austrian or Turkish troops being
in that vicinity. $50.

from Salonica are still unable TO get
into touch with the Serbian FORCES

Allies have been unable to cross the
boundary. south Of Strumnitza.
The position of Monastir is pre-
carIous. and its fall would make the
situation of Greece more critical than
ever. II might also bring to crisis
the question Of disarming Serbian as
well as Allied troops driven into Greece
by the Bulgarians.
Far more important, however, IN It's
bearing on the future Of the Balkan
campaign is the disposition to be made
by Germany of the hundreds of thou
sands of troops now being freed by the
shortening of the lines in Northern
Serbia and made available for fighting
elsewhere.
They might be hurled against Italy.
If they arc used against the Allies In
the south they could, it is thought
here, make short work of the troops
from Salonica. Sofia dispatches say
that the American Minister has mott

WANTS RULING ON AUTOMOBILE FEES
State May Have to Bear En- tire Expense of COmmis- sion Allowed Probate
 Judges

Montgomery, December 9.-(Special) State Auditor M. c. Allgood has applied to Attorney General William l.. Martin for a ruling on that section of the new license law providing that probate judges of the various counties of the state shall receive a commission of 21 per cent or all money collected from the sale oi motor vehicle licenses.
 The law provides that 40 per cent of the gross revenue derived from any incor- porated city or town shall be paid by the judge of probate to the treasurer of the city or town in which the owner ol lcensee resides, that 40 per cent of the gross revenue derived from any county outside of an incorporated city or town shall be paid to the treasurer of the county, and that the remainder shall be paid to the state treasurer.
 The question submitted by the auditor to the attorney general is whether the probate judges commission of 2fa per cent shall come out of the funds originally collected by that official before the vari- ous amounts are pro rated among the city, county and state, or whether the probate judge shall first pay the city or county treasurer 40 per cent of the amount his commission.
 Attorney General Martin is expected to render an opinion on the question by to. morrow or next day. In the opinion of the auditor. it Is a most importat ques- tion, and he is anticipating the ruling oi the attorney general with considerable interest.

The Birmingham Motor and Country club will give a complimentary luncheon al tho Tutwiler today at 1 o'clock to the active and life members.
 There have been over 200 acceptances and it promises to be even more inter- esting than the one given November 26 At that time the plans for the further developments of this big club were mere ly hinted at Today it is proposed to go into this subject deeper. and to further the club life by planning the standing committees and getting all, the members interested in making the club still more attractive.
 Two motorboats-onc of eight-passenger capacity-have been ordered for the lake and will be in Birmingham by Tuesday, and at this lunch the names of the own ers of these two boats will be disclosed and this diclosure promises to be very interesting according to a conversation overheard between President Charles b. Rice. Solon Jacobs and George Blinn, ir which aeroplanes, hycroplanes and sub marines were mentioned in the talk. In this connection J. E. Shelby and Harry Wheelock, who were appointed as a spe- cial committee, will make repdFt at the luncheon on the desirability of getting Sol Caheen to swap his deroplane for 6 hydroplane and put it on the lake.
 Among the activities of the club planned for the holiday season is big Christ. mas party at the club and several in teresting and unique features concerning it will be discussed and decided at the lunch today.

MAY CLOSE CERTAIN SECTIONS OF CITY ID AUT0MOB|L|STS Barber Will Take This Step if Necessary to Curb
 Speeders TRAFFIC OFFICERS
 ARE BACK ON DUTY Twentieth Street Hill Would Be One of First Sections of City Denied to Autoists-Streets Down.
 town Are Dangerous Also

If it is necessary to protect hu- man life.'' said Commissioner Arlie Barber yesterday, "I-intend to sug- sest to my brother commissioners the advisability of closing up cer- tain sections of the city to automo- piles. The speeder' must be curbed."
 According to Commissioner Bar Der the Twentieth street hill would be about the first section of the city to come under the prohibition order to automobiles. MT. Barber states that autoists have a great temptation to contend with in go- ing either up or down Twentieth street hill.
 If they are going up,' said MT. Barber. they naturally want good start, as it is a steep hill. If tion to coast downward at great speed is one that is seldom resisted. However, if necessary for the pro- lection of pedestrians I intend to look into the advisability of clos ing up the Twentieth street hill as far as automobiles are concerned"
 Traffic regulations have been up for discussion in the city commits sion several times of late and it is likely that Commissioner Barber will offer some novel Suggestions at the next meeting of the board
 ''The downtown streets are dan gerous also" said Commissioner Barber. There is no getting around that. First, Second and Third avenues, with autos parked on both sides, furnish hardly room enough for a street car. A street car and an auto cannot go down the street together. This makes it extremely dangerous for persons to get on and off the cars. In consid- eration of this it might be a good thing to keep autos off the streets entirely. Certainly parking should not be permitted"
 In order that a stricter enforce ment of the traffic regulations be possible police officers have been stationed on all the downtown street intersections.
 These officers will be there,' said Commissioner Barber, until after the holidays"
