That is the amount put away during the 50 weeks preceding by the members of these Christmas clubs.

 The total paid out by the Traders Ma tional bank to 1920 savings club depos- itors was $l90000. This compares, with about half that amount paid out last Christmas. The increase is 100 per cent. People evidently appreciate this form af putting by their small savings.

1. & N. FIREMAN IS
 VICTIM OF VICIOUS
 ASSAULT; MAY DIE
Dave Crews Shot Five Times By Unknown ASSaiIantS. No Motive Apparent to
 Police

Dave Crews, a fireman on the Louis vile and Nashville railroad, was shot and seriously injured by unknown par ties at Sixth avenue and Twenty sixth street, north, about TO o'clock last night.
 Four pistol bullets and one from a pump gun entered his stomach. The parties doing the shooting made theIr escape. A dozen or more people were standing within 15 feet of Crews when he fell. Several of them stated they were sure the shots had not been fired from the street
 Every shot that was fired took effect in the body of the injured man. One of the shots came out his back and lodged in 0 fence close to where he was stand ing. People hearing the loud pistol ports, hesitated about going to the aid of the injured man, when he fell to the ground.
 A few bolder than the rest, came 10 his rescue and carried him into a fruit stand on the corner. Lise Loys am buance removed him later 10 the St. Nincents hospital where he was placed Vpon the operating table immediately He had suffered heavily from loss of blood
 Emergency officers from police head quarters were on the scene a few minutes later and gathered half dozen or more witnesses. None, however. was able to give any information as to where the bullets were fired from.
 A few minutes later city detectives ttr- rived upon the scene. They are working with two ideas in mind Either that the shots were fired from one of the houses along the street or were fired iom a moving automobile which speeded away immediately. Police officers are also firm in their belief that at least two men had hand ia the shoot . two pistol shots rang out first Crews sank to the ground Then the louder report of the bullet from the pump gun and two more pistol reports rang out The last three shots entered Crews body after he fell to the ground.
 As the last shot rang out witnesses say Crews cried out, Get him, get hin: he has killed me "
 At a late hour last night the injured man was reported recovering from the effects of the anaesthetic, but still in a critical condition. He had not re- gained consciousness
 Police authorities are without a clue to work upon until the injured man has recovered enough to tell, if he can. how the shooting occurred.

Real Beneficiaries Of the
 Strike Are Paid Agitators
Walter Moore Thinks It Unfortunate That Prime Movers in Acts of Violence Are Not to Suffer Along With
 the Actual Perpetrators

"In my recent statement that idle ness was a great incentive to crime, and that the idle miners of this district encouraged by the paid agitators were ready to destroy and kill, it does rot seem that was far wrong" said Wal terday.
 T now refer to the recent dynam'ting of the home of hard working negro miner, the injury inflicted upon his person, burning of his and companys property and the murder of his wife; also the shooting into a truck load of miners while going to their work, the frequent holdups and robberies of in nocent men and the consequences to follow, and still more of the mu cder of the young soldier on duty in Walker county.
 T insisted, too. that the states sol- diers should remain on duty in this dis trict as long as these agttators shall instigate crime. In face of this warn ing came the proclamation of the off cial leaders of the so-called strike that the id1eness and disorder shall continue until the coal operators bow to the will and mandate of the paid leaders; that picketing shall continue and men who desire to work shall continue 10 be burdened with expense; the public still disturbed with apparent uncertainty: the operators forced to be on their guard for the protection of their prop erty, and the agitators have their names retained on the pay rolls at the lexpense of the United Mine Workers |"I said that the strike was prac- tically over; that the operators had
 won the fight and that the weekly
 increase of coal production was full
 evidence of the fact. By this, did
 not mean the strike was called off.
 nor that all the duped miners had returned to work. but that the places of many of them had been filled by willing and efficient men,
 who desire and shall have the en- couragement and protection of the state and of the operators. Let me call attention to the authen tic official figures. which now show sroat- CT weekly production, than at any time since last April, production fully normal and sufficient to supply all market demands This could not be so did the state withdraw it's strong larm from defense of the worthy min CTS, who desire to work and support their families.
 THE DEADLY PARALLEL "The deadly parallel is forcefutly ldrawn in the present condition which exists in this industrial district. "On the one side is a leadership which encourages warfare against in dustrial effort against law and order, and against all things that go for the protection of life and property "On the other side is the government al forces of the state of Alabama the sta tute books. the chief executive and the state military at his command.
