GENERAL IS NOT TOUCHING
 FOR "CREAM TOP"
Says Manufacturers of the Beverage Are Claiming His Office Has Passed on

Montgomery. July 10.-(Specia1) Attorney General William L. Martin has made no examination of a bever- age called "oream top," and has given no opinion as to the legality of it's by that official today. in answer to numerous reports that have reached his office.
 These reports were to the effect that the attorney general had declared, aft CT examination. that the beverage did not conflict with the prohibition laws of the state. This is positively denied by the attorney general, who declared that his office has been particularly careful to withhold any expression on the sale of any drink or beverage"
 The attorney general in the same statement denied that he had given an opinion to certain optometrists to the effect that they need pay license in only one county. The only opinion the office has given was rendered to the state board of equalization and was not in line with the statements re- ported.
 Following is the attorney general s statement:
 "Informa ton has reached this office that the makers of a beverage called cream top are representing that the attorney general has examined the beverage and has declared that it did not conflict with the prohibition laws of the state. I wish to correct this statement and to say that this offic. has given no such opinion; nor has Il ever given any opinion to any maker of or dealer in any beverage regard ing the legality of its sale. The office has no authority to give an opinion to any but state officials and it will not undertake to advise individuals or any one else regarding any legal matter and it is particularly careful to with hold any expression on the legality o1 the sale of any drink or beverage.
 Information has aleo reached tho office that certain optometrists are also travelling over the state and stat ing to the judges of probate that the attorney general has advised them that they need pay license in only one coun- ty. Such is untrue. The only advice given regarding matters of this kinc has been given to the board of equal ization and is not in line with the statements which have been reported tc this office.''

 There should be no uneasiness or alarm over the financial status of Birmingham Papers all over the country less than a week ago were publishing the fact that this city was one of the few cities within the United States living within it's in- come. And yet, as a result of the de- cision in the Mcdonald case, our home papers have sent out to the world scare lines and direful predictions which may have done incalculable harm. I do not know of a certainty as to that, but do believe that they have done us more in the Mcdonald suit could possibly &C., complish.
 We have just suffered a siege of What's the matter with Birmingham ?' And now it appears we must follow it up with promulgations to the effect that the city has received it's death blow as a re- suit of the bond issue decision, which may be, and most probably is, a blessing in disguise.
 It looks as if some have become stam- peded and thrown into an unreasoning fear by the ghost or goblin of an imaginary financial crisis. When pitcher gets rattled they usually take him out of the box.
 Birmingham is not bankrupt will not be and cannot be bankrupt. It is living within it's income.
 One of our afternoon papers quotes Commissioner Ward as declaring: we are not pikers.' If we are not then let s sit in the game put our chips in the center, and draw cards. We have the supreme court as the final arbiter of the proposition Why "holler' until we are ht-and, why ''holler" then? we are not pikers,' saith MT. Ward.
 And above all; let us not discuss prop ositions of putting on an unneeded street tax, until necessary; of a horizontal or other raise of our merchants licenses, un- til it should be done; of shortening our school term and of charging large tuition fees, until the situation demands. Let us not even think of these things unless and until we must
 Any problem which may arise as a re- suit of the Mcdonald suit can be suc- cessfully met-the solution will not be in- possible, nor even difficult. Let us rather think how soft, and warm, and bright the sunshine will be in the event the supreme court of Alabama reverses and renders the decision in the Mcdonald case.
