Senator Says Remarkable Democratic Wave Has
Set in IN Ohio-If Wilson Carries New

bama Until After Election

Senator O. w. Underwood Is back In
Birmingham from his speaking trip of
four weeks in the middle west feeling
that the campaign is in fine shape from
the democratic standpoint.
IF President Wilson carries New York
he will get enough votes in the west to
elect him. said the senator. Il am not
familiar with the situation in New York,
but L feel confident in counting on the
growing democratic wave in the part of
the country through which I have tray-
eled.
Indeed the situation looked good to
me. 1 was in Maryland, Ohio, Indiana
and Missouri, spending week in each
state, and the most agreeable surprise
to me was the rapid growth of demo-
cratic sentiment in Ohio II it continues
at the present rate Ohio will give her
vote to the President. 1 was greeted by
large crowds everywhere 1 went and the
enthusiasm is very marked.

LOCAL GOLFERS GIVE
CORDIAL GREETINGITO
F A VI O u s PLA Y Err s
Chick Evans and Ned Sawyer Both Enthusiasts
for Public Courses -Heartily IndOrse Plans
to Make Game Available to the Bir-
mingham Public

Birmingham had full day of golf
yesterday and was delighted with the
experience.
Charles Evans, otherwise known as
Chick" Evans, national amateur
champion and national open champion,
and Ned Sawyer, hero of hundred
goH tournaments, spent the day here
ana every minute was consumed
either in playing golf or eating, for
birmingham dined the visitors Law
ishly.
Durlng the morning they played at Roe
DUCK club and in the afternoon at the
Country club, and on both occasions were
followed by large galleries of local golf
, ers.
DR.. A. 3. Harris, the Alabama cham
pion, and E. M. Tutwiler. Jr., one Of the
states leading players, were selected to
play with the visitors, so that those who
journeyed to the two clubs saw some
excellent golf played under ideal weather
conditions.
Chicago is nothing like this" said
Chick Evans I'VE left there Friday
night in a snowstorn"
FOR PUBLIC COURSES
One of the striking features of the visit
of these two nationally famous players
was their enthusiasm for public golf
courses.
III is great plan you have under
way In Birmingham" said Ned Sawyer.
There are eight public courses in Chi
cago and the way people use them ought
to be an encouragement to any COM
munity to install as many courses as
possible"
II helped put in the public course
at Lincoln park in Chicago" said Chick
Evans, and the result has been all We
anticipated. 1t gets people interested in
golf and we who have played a great
deal and are thoroughly familiar with
the game know what this means. 1t
is good for any community to have a
lot of golf enthusiasts. 1t means a
healthier city and consequently better
work"

PRICE Of GASOLINE
WILL Be DISCUSSED
City Commission to Take
Action on Gasoline Bids
and Tidewater Lines

Dealers in oil and gasoline will come in
for their share of criticism from the COM
mission at the weekly conference this
morning.
Purchasing Agent Griffin of the city re-
ports that thus far he has received no
competitive bids from the oil and gaso-
line dealers here. Commissioner Barber
presented a resolution at the commission
meeting last Tuesday requesting the city
attorney to ascertain whether or not the
city had the right to regulate the price
of gasoline and oil, and to raise the Ii
censes of those who refused to compete
Mr. Ullman has been husily engaged on
this task all the week Just what his
opinion in the matter will be is prob
lematical.
That Mr.. Barber will take the floor
against the oil companies in general is a
certainty. He is frank in stating that he
believes the practices of the oil compa-
MES operating in Birmingham are not in
accordance with his views of justice and
that he will fight the proposition to the
last ditch A number of the gasoline and
oil dealers will be on hand to take part In
the scrimmage, which promises to be ex-
citing.
Commissioner James Weatherly will
bring up the matter of the consolidation
of the Tidewater lines with those of the
Birmingham Railway, Light and Power
company. He stated yesterday that the
action which would subsequently be taken
by the commission was up to that body
as a whole. The Alabama public SER
vice commission granted the majority
stockholders petition, praying that the
lght TO consolidate with the Birmingham
Railway, Light and Power company be
given, last week. The commission opposed
the consolidation on the grounds that
the bonds for the building of the Tide
water were not issued in good faith.
