SUPPORT FARM BUREAU

SUPPORT FARM BUREAU
We indorse and commend the move
ment of the American Federation of
Farm Bureaus looking to solving of
the farmers economic problems and
recommend such legislation as may
be suggested by a farmers organiza-
ton to be appointed by the governor
tending toward the working out of
farmers problems such legislation
not to be in the form of class legis-
lation and based upon sound economic
principles. We favor assistance
to the farmers in the vital matter of
marketing their crops at equitable
prices. This should manifest it
self in the efforts of our svs-
TEN of good roads, and leading eff
ficient assistance to the formation of
efficient cooperative marketing or

We approve liberal federal aid in
the several states. and we urgently
recommend that our senator's and
representatives in congress secure the

federal funds for public work in the

Dig balance unprovided for. Finally, Frank Butler put it up to Dr. Shrop shire and the latter on behalf of th, Civilians. agreed to pay a certain pro portion. The other clubs, the Civic Association and the Chamber of Com merce, agreed to do likewise and the sum necessary was soon raised and when the balloons pulled out they car ried 5o,00o slips, which were dropped over the side from time to time during the journey. It was largely due to Cr. Shropshire, therefore, that Ken lucky, Tennessee, Illinois, Indiana ano Ohio, together with part of Ontario were literally sowed with Birmingham propaganda.
 Dr. Shropshire was an enthusiastic hacker of our idea to make Thursday, October 14, Mail a Paper Day" an, through his influence and that of his fellow club members. to whom f1s commended the idea, hundreds ci copies of The Age-Herald and the New setting forth Birmingham assets ana activities were mailed throughout the country.
 With q view to stimulating interest ill the Gordon Bennett races, which were held last Saturday. he offered as 2 first prize, on behalf of the Inter national Ciyitan Clubs, a handsome sill yer cup;' and not the least useful piece O. Birmingham publicity arising out of the event, were the "cuts' of the cup which he sent to number of leading American papers as well as to the several Civitan Clubs for in- sertion in their local publications. By his personal service, frequently given at no little inconvenience, pr. Shropshire helped immeasurably in i'm. pressing the visiting foreigners with proper idea of Birmingham's hospi tality. He was one of the small group that met the Belgian team the night the midrig ht----it arrived, and it was in his car that the Belgian aide, Lieut. N. I.abrousse, rode from the terminal to the hotel. His address at the Ita;- ian banquet contributed in no small ds gree to the success of that we'll planned affair, and his presence and support did much towards the success of the main banquet before the races.
 At both the national and interna- tional meets he was an official starter, duty involving considerable work: and when it became known Wednes- day that the race had been won by the Belgians his sense of the fitness of things prompted him to cable King Albert the Civilians congratulations on the victory DeMuyter and Labrousse had achieved.
 In view of this recital which is far from being exhaustive, I believe I ex- press the sentiments of host of Bjr- mingham folk by urging that Dr. Shropshire be chosen as the representa- tive of this community at the New York function on the evening of No- vcmber II next Very truly yours, SAM c.

MOMENTUM GROWING

New York, October 29.-Many states which formerly appeared strongly Repub- can, will be carried by the democrats. Franklin D. Roosevelt declared today in ,, statement made public by the dem cratic national committee The state rent of the candidate for vice president follows:
 Every hour of the day brings us fresh roof of the growing momentum of the reat swing toward Governor Cox and ile League of Nations. It is impossible ;e predict absolutely in detail how many ssates he will carry, for states that a rew days ago might have been clssed as republican. today are safely in the dem cratic column. Tremendous inroads are eing made even in those states which ave been regarded as hopelessly against us.
 "Barnum was wrong. The American .nblic does not like to be fooled and it yill register it's disapproval of repub- ican attempts to mislead the voters and Necloud the issues by lies and misrepre- sentations."

 From the start of the balloon cam paign. Dr. Shropshire rendered valua- hle service. When the army teams first arrived. there was little interest. It was essential that these teams be suitably entertained but hosts were difficult to find. We notified pr. Shropshire, and promptly came an in- v:tation to the members of the teams to be the guests of the Civitan Club at their luncheon the following day. Thus the visitors were started off, so to speak, on the right foot. and there after they became Birm.9aGam boost CTS. The day before the omtionai races, the Civilians, through Dr- Shropshire, entertained 8 group of distinguisneo visitors, including the head of the navy air service from Washington, and both this officer and the oshe, visitors who both then and subsequently enjoyed the doctors hospitality, returned to their homes with the kindliest feel ings toward the city where they had been so royalty entertained.
 It was felt that the balloonists, as they were waited Eorthward on thelr journey, would be anxious 10 keep the country posted as to their progress. Accordingly we prepared for each ball loon form Of report on Whlch was printed the balloons name and the names of the crew, with a request to the finder not only to notify the near est press correspondent. but to fin out the blanks in the form and mail it back to Birmingham. Naturally, we utilized the reverse side of the form for displaying a lot of Birminghams fine points. We were without funds. however, no appropriation had been made for publicity and it looked as if the idea would have to be aband. oned. The Age-Herald offered to con tribute substantially. but there was a

They also asserted that the company's methods of distribut- ing sugar by contract constituted vio- lation of the federal commission act. pre- senting affidavits to support the charge.
 Citing the recent fall in the price of refined sugar. the petition said that last June agents of the refiners represented that there would be sugar shortage in the fall of 1920, and that the price of sugar would be very high during the balance of the year. and induced the grocers to sign contracts to purchase sugar at 21h cents a pound for fall oe- livery. They were told. the petition said, that otherwise no sugar would be fur nished them at all during 1920, which "amounted to a practical threat to injure and perhaps ruin their business as whole sale sgrocers."
