Scenes at Football Game
Typify Loue of Ideals By
Nations Militant Youth

when l left home Friday evening to
come to Birmingham. l anticipated see
ing great crowds of workmen on the
streets of the city in absolute idleness
as consequence of the miners strike"
said II. NJ. Aers, publisher of the An
niston Star, yesterday afternoon, but
Birmingham has grown to such an ex-
tent that even few hundreds. or even
thousands of men idle on the streets at
one time are not particularly noticeable.
1T may have been on account of the
invasion of college students that one was
unable to notice the effect of the strike
here Saturday, but | doubt if Birming-
ham will be seriously crippled by the
strike at any time during the great in
dustrial conflict.
And, speaking of the strike and the
dangers of bolshevistic propaganda that
it implies continued Mr.. Ayers. II am
always treasured in my faith in Amer
lean institutions when | see football
game such as was witnessed at Redwood
field this afternoon.
Those youngsters on the gridiron out
there possess what one might term altru-
istic enthusiasm. They are giving the
best of their loyalty to the institutions
that they love; they are fighting and
roofing for their alma mater today Just
as they will fight and vote for the best
interests of their country in the years
to come.
1T was of such men as these that the
first army training camps were recruited
a few months ago. Our colleges and our
universities are turning out more of their
kind every year. They are the leaders
of tomorrow, and as long as we have a
large body of men in this country whose
minds are well trained and whose en-
thusasm is kept wholesome, we need not
fear for the collapse of the American
form of government, which is rooted in
the loyalty and devotion of the average
American citizen.
Strikes may come and strikes may go,
but as long as there is a majority OF
men in this country who are willing to
give the best of their brain and Drawn,

campaign to obtain more money. and
as the chairman of the teachers com

as to whether or not the teachers are
sure to benefit from any new tax that
may be voted nder the AZ towns
amendment, W. ch is to be voted on
December % giving ~ municipalities
the right 30 vote their own taxes.
City Commissioner J. r. Hornady
chairman of the AZ towns COMMITTEES
working on adoption of the amend

the paramount and perhaps the only
chance for the teachers to obtain more
mopey.
IF the - towns amendment "a
voted favorably on December 20" said
Mr.. Hornady. ct with naturally be fol.
lowed by vote TO raise the local
taxes. Birmingham's tax rate is one
of the lowest in the country at pres

of the high license schedule suffered
in Birmingham and vote raising
the taxes is practically the only +
