ALABAMA BAPTIST
 WILL LOCATE HERE Official Publication of Bap- lists to Move Here From
 Montgomery

The Alabama Baptist. the official pub lication of the Baptist state convention will be removed from Montgomery to Birmingham. This fact became known here yesterday when pr. L. l.. Gwaltney, editor of the publication inaugurated a search for proper quarters for the news paper.
 The reasons advanced for the change Is that Birmingham is more centrally locat- ed for the work of the paper and the op- portunities for securing advertising are greater here than in Montgomery. An other item is said to be the fact that the traVeling representatives can cover the territory better with Birmingham as a base The exact date when the change will be made has not been announced as 1t was stated yesterday that Dr. Gwalt- ney had not yet closed a contract for quarters for the publication It is planned to make the change at the earliest possi- ble moment. 1t is stated
 The Alabama Baptist was purchased by the Baptist State Convention from Frank Willis Barnett last year and was remov- ed to Montgomery last January. It was announced at the time that one reason for the change was the fact that the Baptist headquarters were located in the Capital City and it was thought better to have the convention paper published there

''I wish to state that Captain Hobson's visit at this time has no special significance beyond the fact that large number of impor- tant churches could not participate in the field services held earlier in the year. These churches and committees will be visited at this time"
 Captain Hobson will open in Birming- ham at the First M. E. church. south Sunday morning. October F. and will speak at a mass meeting at Ensley that afternoon.

PROHIBITION LEADERS
 OF STATE TO ATTEND CHICAGO CONFERENCE
Anti Saloon Executive Committee to Consider Programme to Make
 World Dry

Prominent Alabama prohibition leaders will leave Monday night for Chicago to to attend a conference of the executive committee of the Anti-Saloon League of America and the state superintendents and memb bers of headquarters committees from all the different states. L. B. Mus grove. Dr. l.. C. Branscomb, F. F. Ball lard and Superintendent Brooks Law renee will represent this state at the gathering.
 This conference is for the purpose of a final discussion and action, looking to a closer confederation of the states in the work of the Anti-Saloon league in its law enforcement programme, and it's educational work to perpetuate national prohibition, said MT. Lawrence yester- day. Probably the most important work of the gathering is the working out of a detailed programme for the fight for worldwide prohibition.
 The recently organized world league against alcoholism is looking to Amer lea for an aggressive leadership. and the men who have been directing the work of the Anti-Saloon league are ready to respond just as far as the Christian citizenship of this country will back them up in this world conflict for the de- structon of alcoholic liquor.'
 The Alabama delegation expect to spend the entire week in Chicago.
