signers to make similar affidavits.

bids fair to occupy considerable at
tention of the Commission. At the
conclusion of the hearing yesterday
afternoon Commissioner Alcorn di-
rected that briefs be filed and stated
that the whole Commission would sit
later on to hear argument. Twenty
five days will be occupied in filing
of briefs and answering.
The manner in which the rail-
roads attorneys contested the appli-
cation drew considerable attention
and it was apparent that the plea
that railroads desired to follow the
national injunction to economize
would be made much of. However,
there was not a little testimony pre-
sented by res dents of that section
and by members of the club that the
crossing was q dangerous one.
In the closing of the case Charles
II. Bergner, counsel for the Penn
sylvania railroad, said that the cross
ing matter had never been heard of
until the new Country Club was To-
Gated where it is, but John w. Reilly,
of Fort Hunter. said afterwards that
five years ago the residents of that
section had presented a petition to
the officials of the Northern Central

DATE CHANGED BY l GOOD ROADS MEN
Bankhead Highway Direc- tors Meet November 26 to
 Decide Official Route

The date for the converting of the Alo- bama Good Roads association in Rir- mingham has been changed from No vember 26 to November 27, in order for the directors of the .Bankhead National Highway convention to meet on Novetn- Der 26 and decide upon the official route for the Bankhead highway The direc- tors will hear the report of the path finding committee and action will follow that will settle the matter of the trail for the new highway that may become a military thoroughfare.
 The convention committee of the Civic association, of which George E. Driver Is chairman, last night announced this change and has notified all concerned of their decision, upon the request of the members of the pathfinding committee, sanctioned by the directors of the Banit- head Highway association.
 The convention will make it's head quarters at the Hilman hotel. and the deliberations of the body will be held there. J. A. Rountree, secretary of the Banllhead National Highway association returned to Birmingham yesterday aft ernoon, after a two weeks absence spent in Washington where he wound up the
 
 that has been blazing the way for the new national highway from Washington to Atlanta, two routes being inspected.
 The party making the trip was com posed of p enthusiastic good roads az itators two of whom were Senator Jo.ln H.. Bahkhead and Col. T. S. Plowman, president of the highway association.
 The trip was a great success from start to finish. Over. 1200 miles were covered by. the party. traversing the states of Virginia, North and South Car olina and Georgia. Many public meet ings, ,banquets and luncheons were ten- dered the party along the route ant hospitality and enthusiasm greeted them everywhere. Secretary Rountree states that the route from Atlanta to Greens horo, N. C., has been practically settled, with the exception of deciding the links that lead into the various cities. The real fight, he states, is over the route from Greensboro to Washington.
 The feature of the trip, according to Secretary Rountree, was the fact that Senator Bankhead, 76 years of age, and Colonel Plowman. 7S, stood the trip in fine style. and each averaged 10 speeches day
