HOW TO ENCOURAGE
HOME OWNERSHIP

LIVERY student Of political history
II knows that many corporations in
this country have made the mistake of
opposing, on general principles, all legis-
lation affecting their interests, and
have by this method invited antagon-
isms and paved the way for successful
appeals, demagogic in many instances,
to the prejudices of the people.
An Prevention worth pound of Cure Being engaged
in the savings bank business naturally interested the subject
of savings fund legislation firmly believe that the best ways
prevent the enforcement radasm States pro-
vide laws designed encourage Thrift and Home Ownership only
requires csory examination of the facts that
those states which have the best laws governing savings Institutions
carry by this very fact the best insurance against radical domina

and patriotism adequate laws governing savings nstu
tions have within their respective boundaries maximum of

.OLD-FASHIONED METAL DOLLAR
 APPEARS HERE

Silver eagles in large flocks have made their appearance in Birmingham.
 Battered and out of shape were some Of them. but spendable just the same. Silver dollars have been pouring into the hands of merchants of the city at a rate that has not been equaled in sev- erai years.
 Cashiers in downtown banks say that depositors have been turning in silver dollars by the bagful for the last few days. Every kind of business concern in the city seems to be getting their share of them. and in some places paper money is beginning to be as scarce as silver dollars were few weeks ago.
 Local merchants have been keeping a careful watch to see who and what kind of people it is that have the silver dollars in their possession.
 As the result of the careful watch, the merchants state that it is the peo- pie living in the country, and places out from the city, that are spending the silver dollars.
 More than the usual number of farm CTS and people who live in the country were in the city during the end of the week, and reports from the grocery, feed and clothing merchants show that most of these people paid for their pur- cl:s ses with silver money.
 In one instance, a merchant reported, a farmer put in his wagon nearly $60 worth of groceries and meats. Then he took bag from his hip pocket and paid for his groceries with gold coins, ana asked that he be given his change in silver dollars.

McAdOO Announcement

 Presidents Statement
sv Associated Pres.


 New York, June 21.-William G. Mo Adoo. in a statement here tonight, de- cla.ad his recent announcement that he would not permit his name to be present. ed to the San Francisco convention, as a candidate for the democratic presiden- tia, nomination. had no relation to the political interview with President Wilson published the day before. He declared he knew nothing of the interview until he saw it in print and that the president knew nothing of his withdrawal until af- ter notice of it had appeared in the news papers.
 MT. McAdoo's statement follows:
 'in order to set at rest absurd rumors and speculations which have been pub lished to the effect that my letter of withdrawal had some relation to the presidents world interview, or carried a concealed purpose. I wish to say, first, that I knew nothing whatever of the presidents interview until saw it in the papers, and, second, that the president knew nothing whatever of my letter of withdrawal until he saw it in the public prints"

police court on the charge of having Tailed to bury dog that he had killed. McGuthra was fined $50, but appealed Lis case to the higher court. The ne- gro was tl.e principal witness against the officer. and testified that dos that McGuathra shot on May 1 was found dead under a negro restaurant on June II. McGuthra claimed that he
 was not in town on May 1, and he also
 asserts that Ethridge has signed a statement in which he admits that his testimony was untrue. The case is one angle to the controversy as to whether officers who kill dogs under the pro- visions of the new state dog law are
 required to bury the dead animals. The
 officers state that if they must inter all dogs slain. the cost of burial will exceed the compensation allowed for executing the law.
