 LITTLE USE FOR JAIL
 Another fact that the liquor people can chew upon.
 'The city of Birmingham has the handsomest city jail in the south costing about $100,000 and surrounded by twenty acres of ground. beautifully cultivated. ''The normal number of prisoners con- fined within it before the advent of prohibition was 200 and upwards. Today the number ranges from 60 to 70. most of them cOlOred women.
 Now our new problem is, what to 10 with this fine jail. As result Birming- ham is forced to do its street cleaning and garbage collection with paid lab orers instead of with prisoners.
 "This wonderful fire and police rec ord can be traced almost directly to prohibition, for. in the fire department, it is preventing conf1agrations by min imizing carelessness and wantonness. In the police department it is fore stalling crime.
 ATTACK FROM NEW ANGLE
 "In other words, through force of circumstances and economic neces- sity Birmingham is attacking these problems from new angle. That is to say, instead of winking at and ig- noring crime at it's source and then handling it afterward at tremendous cost, the city is annihilating the source. Instead of handling and putting out fires after starting with a costly de- partment, it is ejecting the causes of fires.
 "A systematic inspection of all fire risks with additional inspectors was

100000 HEARD SPEECHES

At least 1000 900 persons, his advisers esti- mate, heard the Presidents chief speeches. At least 50,0O0 more crowded about the rear platform of his car dur ing his five-minute talks, though the great majority of these were out of the range of his voice. Hardly fewer than half million others have been banked
 on the sidewalks to watch him pass through the cities from railway station to hotel from auditorium back to his pri- vate car.
 Reviewing his trip in it's high lights,
 the President told his audience in St. Louis today that he came away from
 Washington thinking that the country
 was with him on the issue of prepared ness and is going back knowing that it is with him beyond his greatest hopes. Apparently the Presidents conviction of this grew with each succeeding day; deepened in Kansas City last night when he asked would you volunteer?" and re- ceiving a laundering "yes'' from every section of the great convention hall. and reached it's climax with the demonstra- ton today at St. Louis. when he told an audience which cheered him unanimously that the United States ought to have 'in- comparably the greatest navy in the world"

WILSON IS DRAF TING
ST. LOUIS PLATFORM
Attacks Made by the Re-
publicans.

WASHINGTON, JUNE THE
real work of the Democratic eonven-
ton at st. Louis is being done, bit
by bit, in the Executive Offices and
the private study of President Will
son. The President is working daily
on the Democratic platform and con-
sulting from time to time with mem.
hers of his Cabinet and such Congress
sional leaders as Senator Stone, Sen
ator James and others.
When he has finished his draft.
Senator Stone, as Chairman of the
Resolutions Committee of the Dem
ocratic Convention, will take it and
insure its adoption virtually intact
But the Presidents task will not be
ended until after the publication Of
the Republican platform He intends
to direct the defense against Republi-
can attacks upon his Administration
as much as his official duties will
permit, and stand on a platform pre-
pared by himself.
So far as the platform has been
completed, it deals in general terms
with the achievements of the Admin
istration in the last three years and
the expectation of the party in the
event of a continuation of power.
Prosperity. satisfactory financial con-
ditions under the operation of the
Federal Reserve Act, promises of
tariff readjustments by a non-part,-
san board to meet changed conditions
after the war, the success of the
President in keeping the Nation out
CT war, and the constructive policy of
preparedness sponsored by the Ad-
ministration and incorporated in the
military reorganization law and va.
rious defense bills about to be en-
acted, are points covered so far by
the President.
The sections dealing in detail with
his foreign policies will be one Of the
last to be closed, as it will be pre-,
pared carefully.

JUSTICE HUGHES
STILL WON'T TALK
Belief Now is That Hitchcock
Working for Roosevelt and
Wall Street.

WASHINGTON, June S.-Although
disavowing Frank Hitchcock's repre-
sentation of him at Chicago, Justice
Hughes has nothing to say" whether
he will accept the nomination or not
if rendered him. That settled it, Sec
rotary Lawrence Green said today.
Green, however, did amplify the disa-
vowal by saying that Hitchcock nov
er asked the justice if he could be his
manager, and Justice FSughes never
said he could be or he couldn't be.
Hitchcock has never asked for or
received permission to collect the
southern delegates for Hughes. One
Hughes man, senator, pointed out
when the Hughes movement began to
center around Hitchcock, trouble then
began, and until now Hughes is Gin
bad" in the candidates row.
Washington has never considered
Hitchcock a political blunder and
the belief privately is growing that
he is working for Roosevelt and the
Wall street group headed by Perkins.
