FURNITURE DEALERS
 WILL PUT $13,000 IN
 BED FACTORY HERE
Act Favorably on Proposition of the Birmingham Bed Company-To
 Enlarge Local Plant

The Birmingham bed factory is to be enlarged and placed of better basis by the Birmingham Furniture Dealers association.
 At the meeting of the furniture deal CTS held in their offices in the Clark building last night it was decided to put $13,000 into the bed factory and to enlarge. the scope of it's operations. It was pointed out by the committee which had investigated the proposition that with this additional capital the concern could be made one of the suc- cessful small industries of the district and could also be made of advantage to the local furniture men in that they could secure a part of their stocks at home. Under the arrangement entered into with the bed factory owners by the furniture dealers, the latter are to have two members on the board of directors of the factory
 The $13,000 is to be raised among the furniture men at once. it is stated, a large part of the money already hav- ing been pledged. c. ". Green, chair man of the committee, made the re- port which resulted in the favorable action on the proposition last night. Other members of the committee are M. Hood. J. W. McCarty and Arnold Glass
 The furniture dealers heartily in- dorsed the plans for cleanup week. pledged their cooperation in the work and named a committee to assist in making the movement 8 success

that Woodlawn was the most logical place for the new addition.
 Four or more possible sites were de- t2i1ed to the two boards and argu nents advanced to show that Wood lawn, being the central point in the whole eastern suburban section, the high school should be located there.
 sydney J. Bowie and other members of the two boards responded to the speeches of the Woodlawn citizens. The Woodlawn committee was com posed of Horace c. Wilkinson, W. F. Reynolds. R. A. Clayton, M. c. Smith, Dr. A. w. Bell, W. T. Whited S. J. Patterson, o. P. Fontaine. Charles E. Burris, Hedmon Hopson, R. K Ken nedy and P. P. Buckshaw.
 Inasmuch as the claims of East Lake were to be heard next Tuesday night the members of the board of educa- ton stated that they could not cont init themselves in any way The site committee is still engaged in nvesti- gating sites all over the city.
 Some action is expected to be taken at the next meeting of the board of education on April 10. The naming of the supervising architect and the se- lection of some sites are to be ac- complished at this session. it is un- derstood.

 Tonight the republican organiza tion committee of 27 had a long meeting, but failed to decide upon any definite course to be recommended to its party conference tomorrow.

Chances for Alabama 10 Secure Arn7Or or Nitrate
 Plants Seem Very Small
Announcement Is Made That Site For Former Will Be Named Next Week. and It Is Believed West Virginia Will n-Administration Obsessed With Idea All Sections Must Be Appeased In Time
 of Stress
By HUGH ". ROBERTS

Washington, March 30.- ecial)-After a conference with President Wilson this afternoon, Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, announced that on account of pressure having been brought to bear, the announcement of the location of the armor plate and projectle plants would be made next week.
 While the announcement, according to the foregoing, will be made next week, work on the construction of the plant, it is indicated will not be initiated prior to an additional appropriation by Congress in sum of $6,oO000O, or ss,0oo0oo.
 Respecting the nitrate proposition, it is regarded today as probable that the board will construct, instead of one, either two or three plants. The government, it is evident, is obsessed with the Idea that irrespective of merits involved, all sec tions of the country must in the moment of international crisis be appea ed. It is

 CONSIDER NEED OF
 SCHOOL FACILITIES
Civic League Calls Meeting for Next Friday Night to Dis
 cuss Matter

A mass meeting of citizens of West End has been called by the West End Civic league for next Friday night at o'clock in the West End library building to consider the educational needs of that section of the city.

 Dr. w. c. Gewin, president, presided and talks were made by J. K. Brock man. Arlie Barber. W. H. Tharpe and Roger Snyder. It was pointed out that West End was greatly in need of ad- ditional school facilities as the Hemp hill school was badly overcrowded. It was not definitely decided whether the board of education should be urged to construct 8 new school or should be requested to enlarge the present struc- ture so that additional room might be offered the pupils.
 It is planned to get a full expres- sion of the sentiment of the people of West End next Friday. after which the matter will be taken up with the board of educa tion.

EMPLOYES NOTIFIED

The idea of enlisting virtually all government employees in this work originated with the department of jus tice and was promptly approved by the heads of the various government departments. Instructions have been sent to most of the employees con- cerned.
 In calling upon it's civilian employees to aid in the work of the bureau of investigation. the government will rely chiefly upon the field forces of all it's varied activities. men whose daily with the public.

WOODLAWN HOMES
 DAMAGED BY FIRE

The residences of l.. A. Christian, 11S Halstead street. and w. c. Farrar 120 Halstead street, Woodlawn, were badly damaged by fire yesterday aft ernoon about 80 o'clock. The flames started in the Christian residence, which is a two-story frame structure, but were quickly communicated to the adjoining Farrar cottage. The roofs of both homes were practically burned off and much damage was done to the interior of the residences by water. The total loss for both residences is estimated at about S2000.

probable that one section of the proposed plant will be located west, another east and a third south, But should the south be given 8 unit, and that unit located on the Black Warrior river, it must be con sidered as a gratuity rather than a rec ogniton of an incomparable asset.
 An announcement regarding the nitrate proposition will not be made prior to a visit west by the board of location. From the situation as it appears to be today, however, there is very little encourage ment from the viewpoint of those inter ested in Alabama projects.
 Secretary Daniels could not be induced to indicate where the armor plate plant would be located It is believed, how ever, that a point in West Virginia will be chosen. The administration, to refute the argument that the south is in the saddle, has concluded, it would appear, that along with everything else produced below the Mason and Dixon line, southern ore is unworthy of serious consideration

Statement By Former Sheriff

OthtcIucHt Oy TVIiucI oltciul To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In connection with the jail delivery in Birmingham last week, your paper stated that the sheriff of Hale county was im- peathed several years ago for permitting prisoner to secure poison with the re- suit that the convict committed suicide.
 The statement Is incorrect, in view of the fact that the charges were not sus- tained. Charges were brought and trial held in Montgomery, but the sheriff was not censured by the court, and not re- moved from office.
 Will you kindly make correctionin your paper, as the statement under the condi- tions Is an injustice to the former sheriff of Hale county. Respectfully,

TO STRENGTHEN NATION

Among these questions are: The early graduation of the first class al West Point; the putting of the coast and geodetic reserves with it's fleet of vessels under the navy department; transfer of supervision over privately owned wireless plants from the com merce to the navy department; tho collection of a large number of pri- Vately owned boats suitable for sub marine chasers. and purchase of sup plies of all kinds for the army and navy.
 One of the first problems facing the government is that of making cer- tain that men and women do not go into the army or navy who are bet ter fitted for industrial work Special efforts are to be made to keep skilled workers of all kinds out of the mfli- tary branches except when they are needed
 Additional National Guard units were called out today to participate in the work of protecting public prop erty in the United States.
 There is understood to be a strong probability that there will be several important shifts of officers both in the army and navy soon Since the severance of relations with Germany everything possible has been . done toward getting Americans out of that country. With the last four con- suls safe on Swiss soil today. very few Americans remain under German control except the 47 Belgian relief workers. who still have two weeks news quarantine" to fulfill under their agreement.
