 In the petition asking the commission to set aside it's opinion, the city of Bir- mingham- charged the decision was rem dered at an executive session. Holding of such secret sessions are forbidden by state laws. When MT. Weatherly ap- peared Monday he struck out this clause.
 It is understood the city will attempt to go to the supreme court in a short time.
