In this decision the court upheld the Jefferson circuit court, which had ruled that the bonds must bring their face Fies will lose their commission unless another legal method of paying them is found. According to the bills, they agreed to find purchaser for five huu dred thousand dollars of the bonds for a commission of 10 per cent. They found the purchaser and the board of revenue issued their warrant but the treasurer declined to pay it, holding that the code required the collection of the face value for all road improvement bonds and that the payment of the commission would reduce the net amount below the par value of the issue.
 weakley and Fies filed two bills one asking for a peremptory writ of man damus requiring Henry to honor their warrant and the other asking a sum mary judgment against Henry for the full amount of the claim.
 They lost both cases in the lower court and the supreme cohrt affirmed the lower courts decision in both cases.

 NO CHANGE ON INCOME TAX
 Hope of state officials that the su-
 preme court might modify it's decision
 in the income tax case and hold that
 the state might obtain some revenue from this source vanished Wednesday afternoon when the court overruled the states application for rehearing in the case without changing the original opinion or without adding one word to the statement already made as the courts opinion.
 The final decision of the court came in batch of other rulings on applica- tons for rehearing. Later it was 1 learned that members of the court did not change their original opinion in the least and that all agreed that the
 levy as made by the legislature could | not be sustained because of the limita : tions of the constitution
 Chief Justice Anderson and Associate Justice Mcclellan held in the original de- cision that the legislature could levy d tax of 65 cents on the hundred dollars of | income, and it had been hoped other members of the court would agree with i them and consent to the striking out of | the excess of 65 cents, but the ruling without further statement showed that
 the state had lost it's final effort The state treasury has lost revenue .o- taling $1 100000 annually as a result of the deciison. The state tax commission had figured that the income tax would
 bring in about $1,0OO.O0O the first year and that there would be a gradual increase in 1 the net receipts. VICTORY FOR BOARD OF HEALTH l The Alabama Medical Association will I continue to name the state board of health and will continue to be the chiet authority for the enforcement of all state laws relating to health.
 The supreme court Thursday afternoon affirmed the decision of the Montgomery
 circuit court which was adverse to the 1 contention of Dr. Thomas D. Parke and other physicians of Jefferson county, who claimed the legislature exceeded it's au- thority in delegating health work to the Alabama Medical Association, and that the board of health, the creature of the Medical Association, could not contir.ue to expend the appropriations provided by 1 the state.
 | Associate Justice Somerville wrote the ! opinion, which was concurred in by Chief l Justice Anderson and Associate Justices McClelland and Thomas.
 l The court held that the Medical Asso !, citation had become quasi-public cor poration as a result of the delegation of the authority by the legislature, but that even if it were still a private corpora | tion. the legislature had the power to delegate authority to it, provided the au- thority did not extend so far as the l making of laws.
 l After discussing the various points put | forward by counsel for Dr. Parke and
 his co-workers, the supreme court said:

For the Good of
 the Community

TT is human nature to believe that when A oxen are being gored the most mal- treated OK is that of each individual
 This cannot be the case, because if all the oxen are treated the worst, there is nc variance in the degree of punishment accorded them.
 Coal retails in Birmingham from $7.50 to S9 per ton according to grade. This seems shame when we are atop coal seams.
 In Pittsburgh the price of bituminous coal has risen to SIG per tone. Pittsburgh nas coal mines in close proximity just as Birmingham has.
 The country is 30,0O0,0O0 tons short of it's bituminous coal supply. The situation in Alabama is better than it is in the west and immeasurably better than it is in the east It is especially to relieve the east that the coal car priority order was issued.
 We have read of the enormous divi- dends declared by the American cotton mills. The American cotton grower is in clined to think that the difference be- tween what he got for his cotton and what the American mills have made sums up the situation.
 Here is what the English cotton mills made:
 Tn a period of some thirty years be- fore the war the great majority of cotton JixyiI of Oyo1xy some per cent.
 Last year. it is estimated, the profits of the Lancashire companies as whole amounted to 50 per cent of the share of capital The Bell Mill, Oldham, paid a dividend of 200 per cent. The actual divi- dend of the Times Mill Company of Mid dleton, paid for the whole year has been $50 per cent.
 It is claimed that it was England's s cot ton mills which enabled it to stand the strain of the Napoleonic wars and 1t is ac- cepted that these mills will largely help pay the present English debt and strengthen the financial power of that country
 A specimen of the dividends of the American cotton mills is that of 400 per cent declared by the directors and recon mended to the stockholders of the Inman Cotton Mills, Spartanburg, S. c.
 What do we get out of this besides the profits of cotton mills and the price of coal?
 It is an old truth that what transpires in one section of this country has it's rever berations in every other section and that these reverberations extend over the known world.
 Not long ago a Constantinople coal merchant cabled Birmingham for coal. He offered as high as $100pe ton. France and Italy have been crying for American coal Coal is scarce in America Coke IS also scarce The demand is international.
 The American cotton mills have no more benefited by the conditions of war and the aftermath of war than the Eng lish cotton mills. The cotton trade is es- sentially international.

"We hold that the state board of health is legal body, lawfully empowered, and that it is entitled, through it's legally qualified state health officer, to receive and with the law, to expend the money appropriated by the legislature.'
