TAX HOLSTERS
 UPHELD BY BOARD

Nineteen cases of increased tax as- sessments appealed from the board of tax adjusters were disposed of yester- day by the Board of Revenue. In the ma jority of instances the property con- sidered in the cases was residential. Tho parties complaining were satisfied to ac- cept the assessment on the lot but com- planed of the assessment of the houses.
 When persons appealing the cases stated the assessment on the houses was too large the board asked for seasons for this In every instance the replay came back that the houses were old and had deteriorated since they were built. The property owners als1 pointed out that some of the houses were assessed at more than they cost when built several years ago. The Board of Tax Adiusters stated that these houses would cost three times much to replace at this time and that all increased assessments were based on the valuation of the property on October 1, 1919,
 Only two cases were reduced by the Board of Revenge from the decision of the Board of TaX Adjusters and in these 1t was shown that mistake had been made The cases are heard quickly and ia 3 majority of hem the increased as- sessment of the tax board 's upheld.

NEW CITIZENS GIVEN BIBLE AND U. s. FLAG
Ninety Aliens Become Citi- zens of United States.
 Novel Presentation

When more tEan ninety foreign born men became citizens of the United States in the United States District court yesterday, ladies of the Southside Baptist Church well comed them to their new duties md presented each with small pocket testament in which was placed an American fling.
 These men represented almost every European nation, including several enemy aliens. One by one they passed by the ladies and re- ceived the testaments and the flag. Several of the men stated they were hardly able te read theirs. but they would learn at once. One of the men requested bible Tor ms brother, who was i'll at home.
 The ladies were members of the Mission Study Class of the South- side Baptist Church. Mrs. c. E. RatIiff, Mrs. G. B. Scruby, Mrs.J. 4. Aird, Mrs. w. R. Hunter and Mrs, l.. F. Harris and Edgar Powell Lee, assistant pastor were present. The idea originated from an arr ransement committee composed of Mrs. Ratliff, Mrs. A. ID. McAdory and Mrs. H. c. Abbott.
 This Is the first time such m event has tken place in Bfr- mingham. and probably in the United States. It was evident from the expressions of the newly made citizens that this simple act had, as much effect as the solemn words of the judge which made them citizens.

 City detectives who have been as- signed to the case have found no clue as yet and they say that it is one of the crudest safe robberies on record.

The outer door left unlocked or else the yeggmen of the safe was not marked or scratched in any way. but the inside door was badly battered up and looked as if the yeggmen had worked an hour or two on it before getting 1t open.
 The robbers took nothing from the safe but cash. as several important pa- pers in other parts of the safe were not touched. Entrance to the store was made by breaking the lock on the front door

DOUBLE TRAGEDY AT FAIRFIELD HOME M. l.. Drake Shoots Wife and Commits Suicide-Ill
 Health Cause

Murder and suicide is the verdict or Assistant Coroner John R. T. Rives, who yesterday afternoon completed his investigation of the death of Mrs. Laura Drake, age 30, who was shot and almost instantly killed by her husband, M. l.. Drake, age 5oS who. after shooting his wife. turned the pistol upon himself.
 The murder and suicide were not revealed until yesterday when the cor oner's office began Investigating. The coroner stated that Drake had shot his wife while she was asleep in their room in the boarding house at Fair field Saturday night shortly after 10 o'clock Then he pointed the pistol at his own head and pulled the trigger. The bodies were not found until late Sunday morning.
 Pinned to the scarf on the mantel in the room where the bodies were found, the coroner found the follow ing note:
 T hate to bring this disgrace on my children. but bad health and trou- ble have forced me to do 1t. Laura is too good to face the world alone, so I am taking her with me-
 LEFT INSTRUCTIONS
 The note also left instructions for the burial and other funeral arrange ments. and the addresses of the mans children. Coroner Rives stated that he believed that the woman had been killed instantly. but that death to Drake was not instantaneous was shown by the fact that the body had rolled from the bed to the floor.
 Boarders at the rooming house in Fairfield where the Drakes lived. be- came alarmed when late Sunday morn ing they failed to answer any knocks at their door. The Fairfield police station was notified and Chief of Po- lice Y L. Anthony answered the call, later forced the door open and found the b/ries.
 Many of the neighbors stated that the f.AAes were a quiet and peaceful couple and 1t is not believed that family troubles were the cause of the tragedy. This was Drake's second marriage. the children, whose names were found in the note, having been his children by his first wife.
 One of the children. by a for mer marriage. Mrs. Kelly Wat kins, lives at Fairfield, and has taken charge of the bodies, and it is believed that the funeral services will be held from her residence. son lives in Chicago and three other children live in Georgia.

JACK N. M'DONALD

To the editor of The Age Herald:
 T have read with interest Mir. J. O. O'Connor's letter in The Age-Herald, and l can't say that I approve of every word in it. I have been a citizen of Birmingham for the past forty two years. and I have worked in nearly every state in the United States, and it makes my southern blood boil to hear things being told on poor old Birming- ham.
 she can't help herself and I think that Dr. N. A. Barrett, president of the Board of City Commissioners. should thank MT. O'Connor for his truthful statements instead of accusing him of being representative of the brewers and against prohibition.
 Any level-headed man or woman that is not backing bootlegger or the blind tiger trust would be and are against prohibition that does not pro- hibit, but turns every other building In the city into a blind tiger and a house of i'll repute. That is exactly the case in Birmingham today.
 T heartily approve the stand the women of Birmingham have taken. and would suggest that the police commis- sioner employ "a number of women police to look after the Jelly beans that are sprinkled over the streets of the city. l would also suggest that the women of this city, now that they have the vote. elect a board of city commis- sioners that have some backbone in stead of a shoestring for that impor- tant organ.
 "All the policement would have to be gotten out. too, and I believe that the women will do this, for it is almost impossible to believe that the Board of City Commissioners and other city officials could not know of the pres ent conditions of things in Birming ham.
 AS far as MT. O'Connor being for beer and light wines. I think that is by far better than a city of corn liquor, bootleggers and blind tigers.

court collect in the future and it is, hard to estimate just what profit these offices will show. Duties performed by these officers such as serving pa pers, docketing causes. etc, are charged for at the time the act is performed. but they do not collect until the case is finally determined in court It is rea- sonable to believe that these offices will show quite a nice profit In the futurs
 The elective officers of Jefferson county who were placed on a salary by the 1915 legislature are the only seu of men who have been entirely over- looked when it comes to increased saI- ary to meet the increased cost of liv4 ing. They are still working for salary fixed in 1915. Men in every other walk of life have had some relief. The depu- ties or clerks in all of the various of fices have been raised as well as the judges solicitors, city commissioners. and state officers.
 There are numbers of smaller coun- ties in the state where 1t is claimed the officers are paid much more than
 in Jefferson, although the officers of Jefferson handle more business than probably any ten other counties in the state.
