STATE, HOUSE,, DOVER, MARCH 23
Members of the Legislature who are
opposing the ratification cf the Federal
suffrage amendment-andth they appear to
have a substantial majority IN each house
say the sentiment in Delaware is over
whelmingly against suffrage. That is the
reason they say, that they are against
it. Sussex county, according to one of the
Republican Senators, from that part of the
State, is almost solidly against suffrage,
while Kent men say the adverse feeling in
that county is almost as strong. Rural
New Castle members are divided. several,
however, being strongly opposed TO suf-
frage OF the Wilmington delegation, all of
the Republicans. Senator Robertson and
Representatives Lyons and Francis, are
favorable. while the Democrats, Senator
Gormiey and Representatives Murine
McNabb and Mulvena, are opposed.
The reason for the opposition down the
State seems TO be a disinclination to en-
franchise colored women, the Republicans
feeling that they have no incentive, as
they believe they are strongly enough en-

placing the proposition squarely be-
fore the members. The committee is
soliciting funds to make the initial

the construction Of the building, and
Edw. Weiss, member Of Typograph-

So far the committee has been en-
Enthusiastically received by the different
locals, and while some Of them have
voted to extend the central body

funds on hand are ready and willing to

money will be secured to pay the

SEATTLE SAVANT IS
 HARD ON MAGIC CITY
Puts South Last In Develop ment of Cities and Bir-
 mingham at Bottom

Birmingham is described as the worst city of the thirty-six largest in the United States in an article appearing in The Independent. wherein all praise is bestowed upon Seattle by the professor Of sociology in Reed College. Portland, Ore.
 C. L. Harold, secretary manager of the civic Association, yesterday wrote for yerification of the standards by which this city is thus classified
 The article stated that the scoring or grading of the cities was based upon cer- tain statistics compiled by the sociologist and that generally speaking the western cities are the best, the. eastern next and the southern last.
 The cities are graded on subjects di- vided into eighteen catagories. according to MT. Harold. and are as folliws
 Cost of living, fire destruction, value of properties per inha bitant owned by city, public library circulation of books Gin all of which Birmingham is placed as the trailer), highest wages paid per hour, death rate, infant mortality rate propor- tion of population married, church mem bership percentage of child labor, larg- est park areas, best paved, best school attendance, school property per child, pay to- public school teachers, numbers of pupils per public school teacher, relative literary and proportion of non-English speaking population.
 Judging from the list many other con- alterations in which Birmingham could be shown nearer the top have been omit- ted by the sociologist.' stated Mir. Har- old. "On account of the unusually wide area over which this city's population is spread, the cost of administering the city government is extremely high in many vital deparments. Revenue for municipal government per capita in Birmingham is the lowest of all cities in her population class. Yet from moral standpoint and in many civic particulars depending upon voluntary activities or requiring a min mum of revenue Birmingham ranks high among the cities of the whole country For instance, the attendance on churches, the intensive Sunday school work of this com munity, our splendid charities. large mum Der of churches and religious institutions, those factors that make for really good city ought on impartial hearing to class Birmingham as one of the best instead of worst cities.
 "A representative of the law-enforcing division of the department. of public health on a recent visit to this city un- officially stated to a group of civic lead CTS and city officials that he was in a days mail going to make his report to Washington labelling Birmingham as one of the very few cities in Class A for the light it Is waging on vice and venersal diseases The public library officials will in a few days answer the Oregon critics. I am told, regarding tho circulation of books."

Hepalrlng, vulcanizing and other auto work has been developed to the nth degree here. The DeFuniak Tire Company Pratt & 1NcCollum and nehnlng & Bower of Ensley are on the top rung of the ladder when 1t comes to vulcanizing work.
 The prosperous times have enabled many people who never dreamed of owning an automobile to do so. Pros perity' coupled with system of sell Ing to honest persons on a payment basis, has had much to do with bring ing tnis about. These additional cars In the district demand the increased auto district on the southside and will require even more space in the near future

Automobile Accessories
 and Repair Business Growing

Many industries are developed to an advanced degree in the Birmingham district. good many have started right in Father Jones' valley here and have grown to nationwide. proportions, Business men over the country every. where recognize the district as one to be taken into consideration in locat- ing any new business
 Perhaps business that has been de- veloped to degree more marked than the average in the district is the auto mobile business. The repair and ac cessory business has almost doubled in the past two or three years. Numer- ous new firms spring up almost every day
 Auto Row never knows one day who will be their neighbor the next. Where few years ago. were cheap boarding or lodging houses of a low type now sit some of the handsomest garages and auto showrooms in the entire south.
