FOOD INSPECTION DEPARTMENT ID
 BEGIN OPERATIONS
Officials Will Begin Inspec- tiOn of Restaurants, Hotels and Other Places Where
 Food Is Handled

The city food inspection department, un- der the direction of Mrs. Dupont Thomp- son and her assistant, Mrs. M. H. Willis, is about to begin a systematic inspection of all restaurants, hotels and other places where food is handled.
 we hope for cooperation from every one,'' said Mrs. Willis, flor our purpose is rot to harass, but to be of real as- sistance. The first inspection has already been made and the second is now about to begin.'
 The following letter, which has been sent to all handlers of food, explains the purposes of the department:
 Dear Sir: The first survey of the city looking to the better protection of food has about been completed, and the mem bers of the health department are de- lighted to find the dealers, with but rare exception, interested in improving the conditions under which food Is handled and served.
 That pioneer work in any field of en- deavor has it's difficulties, we know, but your own interest so strongly manifest ed by your splendid spirit of cooperation has led us to believe that you share with us the desire to see Birmingham the  that you will be willing to render real service to this end by following the sug- gestions that have been made to you.
 We have found that the inauguration of food inspection is most welcome to the conscientious dealer who has been endeavoring, without any recognition, to serve the public as 1t deserves TO oe served, and now through onr ordnance calling for the publication of grades we will be able to place before the public those places which by reason of superior clea nliness deserve patronage We are anxious to give you high grade for we feel personal interest in your welfare, besides which we want to be able to herald to the world that Birmingham s place selling or serving foodstuffs are clean.
 we are sending out letters to the presidents of the various women's or ganizations asking them to patronize the clean places, and these letters will reach about 5000 homes
 we will send out letters from time to time in reference to the progress Of this work for the public good, and suggestions from you will be given thoughtful consid- eration.
 we all recognize that it is education and cooperation, and not legislation that will make great city, and it is undenia- bly, true that each has a share that can- not be delegated to another.
 Birmingham advancement and growth means increased opportunity for your ma teral gain, so let us work together in our respective places to make some true our slogan Birmingham the Cleanest City in America Very cordially yours,
 MRS. DUPONT THOMPSON,
 Food Inspector"

recognized by the Scriptures as just cause. Such resolution is not accord ing to Baptist democracy
 NOT MADE IN HEAVEN
 Some one here has quoted the phrase, What God hath joined together, " said Rev. F. R. Margetts of Spokane. Wash. q want to say that I believe God has nothing to do with large percentage of marriages. God is not party to mar riages for title nor marriages for money. We are beginning at the wrong place to correct this evil. We should work for stricter marriage laws and more thought by marrying couples"
 Congress was petitioned to pass an amendment prohibiting the appropriation of public moneys by the federal, state or minor governmental units to any churche, institution, school, society or undertaking wholly or in part in sec- tartan or ecclesiastical control.'
 Another resolution read:
 We do reaffairm our traditional doc- Urine of the separation of church and state as the guarantee Of religious lio- erty; that we desire this religious lib- erty for all men as well as ourselves, and we view with grave concern the disposition of the Roman Catholic church to tax us through the state with the sup port of it's institutions; that we espe- cially oppose being compelled as taxpay- CTS to pay for the maintenance of paroch- al schools, which are and should remain purely private institutions"
 LABOR MAY ORGANIZE
 A resolution recognizing the right of labor to organize and deal with r1nancsal institutions with a view to a greater share in the profits of their labor also was adopted. The resolution declared in favor of arbitration in settling labor con- troversies.
 The convention indorsed the welfare and social programmes approved by labor or ganZations.
 Other resolutions favored complete free dom of the press, including publications which are wholly opposed to activities of denominations or religious bodies; an edu- cational standard for ordination of men in the ministry and cooperation in sup porting a permanent peace programme.
 The convention adjourned tonight.

Committee 10 Raise Funds
 For Boy Scout Organization
Citizens to be Given Opportunity Show Appreciation of Splendid Work of Youngsters In a Substantial Way.
 $5o0O Needed to Complete Budget

courteous, efficient Boy Scouts during the Confederate reunion challenged the admiration of Birmingham.
 "A thousand of your boys are clamor- ing to become scouts, to receive training, to learn service, to become the basis for higher citizenship.
 Last January a conservative three year budget was made for this work, a campaign prosecuted, generous response on the part of 250 contributors, but we failed by $5OO0 to raise the needed amount.
 "The efficiency of the movement was not then generally understood, and we decided to await the reunion and give the boys an opportunity to demonstrate their worth, before completing the bud get.
 Did the boys make good? If so, tell our committee about it when 1t calls on you Thursday. Don't turn them down. They are business men giving both time and money. We hope our names are guarantee of a business administration of this great training force.
 "The boys appreciate the compliments they have received, the suggestions Of dinners and picncs, but they need permanent camp, better equipment, em- ployed supervision.
 Now is the time. Will every one help?

MAYOR STARTS OFT
 TO MAKE MOBILE DRY

Mobile, May 23.-(Special. )-Mayor Pat J. Lyons tonight put the enforce ment of the prohibition law in Mobile strictly up to the chief of police. A long letter was read to the force which was addressed by the mayor to th.. chief. He said among other things: Tt is the duty of these policemen to walk their beats. and in doing so they necessarily should locate these places where the law is being violated which are so numerous about the city"
 The mayor said: "I expect you to give this matter your personal atten- tion If a violation of the prohibi- tion ordinance is discovered on the beat of any officer in the employe of the city of Mobile, by a person other than the officer of the beat on which the violation is discovered, and which has not been previously reported by such officer, you must suspend him at once, pending further investigation"
 The mayors letter comes after wholesale raids by Sheriff W. H. Hol- combe. The latter has declared "ti- gers must close in Mobile county.

 FINANCING THE WAR

of England in respect to advances made abroad, for which allowances had been made in the previous votes. the daily average expenditure had been reduced to e4, ,60O, 900. There had been no increase but slight decrease in expenditures for the fighting forces. The total outlay was somewhat larger, mainly on account of loans to allies and dominions.
 The average expenditure for the army the navy and for munitions, Premier Asquith continued, was just under 93, COG, 600 daily.
 Speaking of loans to allies, he said:
 Without that financial assistance, it is literally true that the combined op- erations of the allies could not be pros- House would not grudge an addition to expenditures in order that the whole financial, naval and military fabric, upon whose cooperative work the suc- cess of our joint efforts depends, should be kept in state of efficiency"
 NO REDUCTION IN SIGHT
 The premier added he could hold out no hope of any appreciable reduction in expenditures. Estimating that the 1900, 100000 asked would last until the middle of the first week of August, the premier said he moved this vote with the same confidence as he felt in nov ing the first vote, but that at this stage he would deal only with the financial position.
 The premier said that the expendi- ture of f240, 100000 between April i and May 20, daily average of f4,S20,- 900, was the highest rate reached by Great Britain in any such period dur ing the war.
 MT Asquith's estimate that the 1900, 100000 asked would last until the first week of August was based on an estimated daily expenditure of f4,750, 900, the lowest rate at which it was safe to place it. He said the balance still held from the last vote would keep the government in funds until June 2.
 The House of Commons unanimously agreed to vote the credit.
