CITY TO MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISEASE
 LAW IF POSSIBLE
Fight Will Be Carried to Supreme Court if Necessary, if Injunc-
 tiOn Is Permanent

The city will fight to maintain the ordinance upon which the social disease programme is based, and in case the in- junction granted by Judge Ferguson Tuesday is made permanent when the case is heard on March Il, the case will be taken to the supreme court, according to the legal department at the city hall.
 Tuesday afternoon Judge Martin of the recorders court and Dr. J. D. Bowling were enjoined from referring four wom- en, arrested on charges of vangrancy, to the health department for examination, and from detaining them for this exami- nation.
 Attorney Fred G. Moore, head of the city's legal department. stated last night that such an ordinance as the one the city is now working under in it's social disease programme had been upheld in the state of Washington, but he stated that he did not make the state ment that it had been upheld by the su- preme court of the United States.
 Section 1 of the law in question de- clared all social diseases to be con- tagious and communicable and danger out to the public health.
 Section 2 provides that any person arrested for violat ton of any ordinance relating to immoral conduct or vagrancy shall be reported to the city health de- partment for an examination and the law further states that 1t shall be the duty of said person arrested or detained to submit to such examination and If examination or laboratory tests show the person to be infected such person shall be detained in an isolation hos pital until they are cured or allowed to go on probation.

MAJOR FORDYCE ID LOCATE WARRIOR RIVER TERMINALS U. s. Engineer to Make Survey of Proposed River Terminals and Rail-
 road Route

Maj. John R. Fordyce, United States engineer, serving with the Mississippi Warrior waterways administration, will be in Birmingham the last of this week
 to begin a survey for determining the
 location of terminals at the Warrior river
 and railway route between the river
 and Birmingham. Chairman W. D. Nes-
 bitt of the Warrior river development committee received a telegram from
 Major Fordyce yesterday stating that he would be here the last of the week to , begin the work.
 Several days ago MT. Nesbitt requested 1 Director M. J. Sanders of the Mississippi Warrior waters to loan Major Fordyce to the Birmingham compittee for this purpose and it was in response to this request that Major Fordyce comes here. An option to July 1 has been taken
 on land at the river for terminals and if Major Fordyce, after making his sur- vey, determines that this is the most suitable place for them, the land will be
 purchased and arrangements made at orce for their construction.
 The territory between Birmingham and
 the river will be surveyed by Major For
 dyce, who will also prepare estimates of the cost of the terminals and the rail- way connecting the city and the river. Major Fordyce will be asked to make estimates of the cost of an electric rail- way and also of steam railway and whichever is finally adopted by the com mittee will depend largely upon the rec
 concentrations of the engineer. Major Fordyce is said to be one of the best engineers that could have been selected for this work. He has had large experience in both railway and terminal engineering through his long service in
 
 comes to Birmingham prepared to inves- tigate, determine and recommend to the Birmingham committee that which will be best suited under the circumstances.

Agriculturists Get Doun To Business On First
 Day FollolUing Address
President Duggar Makes Very Brief Extemporaneous Speech and Urges Healthier Appropriations for Ex-
 tension and Research Work for Southern Colleges

l Two associations of scientific agricul turists are holding conventions in Sir. mingham this week studying farming and animal and plant culture and their diseases from all angles. Representa- ] tives of the agricultural colleges and ex. i pertinent stations in all of the southern ; states are attending the conventions. 1 Both began their sessions at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, one of them in the private dining room of the Tutwiler hote and the other in room 706 at the Tut wiler.
 The Association of Southern Agricultur- ist Workers opened it's annual convention in the private dining room at the Tut wiler hotel at 10 o'clock, the president Dr. J. F. Duggar of Auburn, calling the meeting to order. Welcome addresses on behalf of the state of Alabama and the city of Birming- ham were made by State Commissioner Of Willis Barnett, both extending the hos pitality of the state and the city to the visitors.
 Dr. H. w. Barre of Clemson college, South Carolina, responded for the visit ors, thanking MT. Allgood and Dr, Bar nett for the warm words of welcome and expressed the hope that the meet ing nere WOulu De pTOllldDfe Oit iOi all. He said it was a great pleasure to meet in a state that has done so much towards developing farming in q scientific way and which was encourag- ing in every possible way the success of the agricultural industry.
 BIRMINGHAM IS CENTER
 He said that while Birmingham has doubled and trebled and quadrupled her population in the last IS or 20 years the agricultural development of the south has been equally as good; that the crop yield in the south in 1918 was one-third of the total for the entire country, while the agricultural area is only one-fourth of the total. The association is hold ing it's session here partly because of the fact that birmingham is in the cen ter of the agricultural south, Dr. Barre said. a fact that the city should appre- ciate, and he advised her people to take more interest in agriculture as by so do-
 ing they would greatly increase Blrmlng- hams influence and trade.
 Dr. J. F. Duggar said he would make a few extemporaneous remarks instead Of a set speech as was usually expected of the president, and thereby make way for the discussion of the many subjects on the programme He referred to the need for larger appropriations for prose cutting the investigation, research and extension work of the different agricui- tural colleges in the south
