ANT|-SP|TT|NG LAWS
 WILL BE ENFORCED
Special Men Will. Be De- tailed on Cars in Effort to
 Break Up Practice

An outline of the plans for the city health department indicates that there will be unusual activity in the enforce ment of city health laws.
 The persons who spit upon the street cars, sidewalks and in buildings must halt this practice. This was the unani- nous opinion of Dr. F. E. Harrington, city health officer; Dr. J. M. Lowrey, assistant city health officer, and J. R. Hornady, commissioner of health and education, who met in conference yes terday morning.
 The three public health officials spent sometime in going over the various mat ters.
 To break up the practice of splitting upon the street cars, of which many com plaints have been made of late, the health department will detail several spe- cial men, and will ask the assistance oi the conductors and the Birmingham Rail- way, Light and Power company. It is determined that this menace to the pub lie health be eliminated.
 Attention of the department was di- rected to the fact that there were sev- eral stagnant pools af water that should be drained before he coming of warm weather. This was referred to the en- gineering department for report as to how they might be made sanitary.
 There will be no hitch about payment of the salary of the assistant city health officer. Dr. J. M Lowrey will receive $500 a year, it was agreed after con- ference between Commissioner Hornady and President Ward.

 EMPLOY COUNSEL
 WILL BE TESTED

 Treasurer Henry

Summary judgments against County Treasurer M. V. Henry have been asked for in the case of w. K. Terry, county attorney, and in the case of the assistants to Solicitor Hugo l.. Black and will be heard Saturday before Judge H, A. Sharpe of the circuit court. The opinion of So- licitor Black denying the right of the county to employ attorneys was presented to the county treasurer some days ago. in which Solicitor Blac.S stated that he was the only legal representative of the county officials and on this statement MT. Henry refused payment of the warrant of ". K Terry, attorney for the board of revenue. It is understood Mr. Black will represent the county treasurer sat the hearing of the summary judgment asked for by MT. Terry.
 In the matter of the payment of the salaries of the assistants to Solicitor Black, the payment was withheld by the treasurer on the opinion of Attorney For ney Johnston, who held that there was no solicitors fund from which to pay the warrants and that the act under which they were operating is unconstitutional.
 In this matter Solicitor Black will rep resent his assistants, as in all litigations heretofore about this matter he has pre- sented the case and made the arguments before the court.
