There are no bad boys. We make
this statement confidently, knowing
that il will be endorsed by educators
and others who have spent their lives
in working out the so-called boy
problem. We will defend it in spite
of all the stolen oranges and canned

There are weak boys; boys who
lack resoureefulness: boys whose
ideas of right and wrong are distored,
but there never was boy who did
not naturally, consciously or I'M

take a nap. The wind must blow,
the water must flow. and the boy

put the windmill in the path of the

 The submission was on an appeal from the Montgomery circuit court where Judge Gaston Gunter ruled that the com pany was organized in another state and Was amenable to the tax laws relating to foreign corporations. Attorney Gem eral w. l..

 Pretext SUFFRAGIST LEADER COUNTING ON VOTES January 10 Is Date Fixed by Con- mittee for House to Decide
 National Amendment
 Question
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington, December IS. Special. Alabamians who supported the prohibition amendment haven't a leg to stand on in respect to their op- position to the woman's suf- frage amendment, according to a statement of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Cat today.
 "Southerners who have professed to stand on a states rights platform have yielded their position on the pro- hibition amendment. To hold out against the suffrage amendment would be confession that they use the state rights argument as a con- venient pretext."
 To the foregoing Mrs Catt added that the suffra gists expect the support of Representatives Bankhead, Oliver, Steagall, Almon and Burnett, all of whom supported the prohibition amendment.
 Despite encouragement which the passage of the prohibition amendment gave the suffragists and their victory today in securing not only fixed date for the submission in the House of their amendment, but in securing reference of all suffrage measures to the suffrage committed, a canvass of the Alabama delegation indicates that a charge of inconsistency will find its members immovable.
