BROWN WILL RUN
 CITY WAGONS TO
 DELIVER COAL
Commissioner to Help Put Fuel at Doors of Sufferers Who Cannot
 Get Deliveries

Ellis Brown, commissioner of pub- lie safety, yesterday stated that to- day city wagons would be engaged in hauling coal for those suffering who were unable to get coal any other way, if it was possible for the teams to be out on the streets.
 Many cases of suffering have been noted, many calls for aid being made, but there will be a concentrated ef- fort to make few these cases today. in order that the suffering may be re- lieved. The greatest suffering is caused by the people not being able to get coal moved. There is enough coal available to take care of all imme- diate needs. but the trouble is getting 1t to the homes of the people who are in need of it.
 Dr. H. A. Garfield's telegram to Com : missioner Brown. in answer to a mes sage sent by the commissioner to the federal fuel administrator. asking that Birmingham be allowed to use coal from the adjacent mines rather than have it all sent to the other cities only referred Commissioner Brown to State Fuel Administrator Kennedy. No relief was suggested.

"Carry Classification
 Cards on the Person;
 Do Not Destroy Them
Local Boards and Reese Murray N0ti- fy All Registrants to Hold
 On to Cards

The local exemption as well as coun- ty boards would have all registrants understand that the classification cards given them are very valuable, and that they should be kept by all registrants.
 These cards are liable to save a man any day from being locked up un- til we can get the necessary identifica- tion on him." said Reese Murray yes terday. "We may ask a man for this card at any moment, and they should be carried on the person of the reg istrant. The idea that they are valu> less and should not be kept is errone- ous and all registrants should govern themselves accordingly in the future
 Information has come to the local boards that the men are throwing these cards away once they have been classified, and this was called to the attention of Mir Burray, who was very emphatic in denouncing any such prac- tice.

SAYS ARNOLD UHL
 WAS EAGER TO JOIN
 NAVY IN SUMMER

To the Editor of The Age Herald.
 I respectfully ask you to correct er- TOT in your publication of Wednes- day. January 9. 1918, in which you state my son, Arnold J. Uhl, and my self are naturalized citizens of the United States. I was born in the town of Southport. Chemung county, N. Y, and my son was born at l5l7 Hays street, Birmingham. Ala.
 The charge of disloyalty does my son a great injustice, as he was anxious to enlist in the United States navy in the summer of 1917, but, as his mother and I have horror of the ocean. we persuaded him not to en- list in the navy.
 When he received his questionnaire ir was all Greek to me, so l advised him to engage counsel. which he did. Very respectfully, HENRY UIfL.
