Wondering whether or not the minia- ture storm that visited Jones valley Tues day night and Wednesday morning had torn up the city, Birmingham's people awoke yesterday morning with the vague idea that the Magic City had gone under during the night, due to the heavy downpour of rain that lasted for almost twenty-four hours.
 The city did not completely drown. nevertheless expectations were almost fully realized by the fact that a major portion of the city was converted into small lakes and ponds, aside from the numerous creeks in the outlying sections that assumed the appearance of rivers.
 The fathers of the city were not able to place a definite estimate of the dam age done to the various sewers, man holes, car lines. etc, with which the waters played havoc, however, they are positive of the fact that the damages will run far into the thousands.

RADICAL. PLANS FOR
MAY DAY STRIKE
ARE FLAT FAILURE

WASHINGTON, May 1.-Plans of
radical leaders for nationwide May
day demonstrations, involving strikes
and destruction of more than a
score of federal and state officials,
fell flat, reports to the department
of justice tonight indicated.
Extra precautions taken by federal
and state authorities to block the
radicals widely disseminated appeal
for d May day show of power" were
described at the department as de-
cidedly successful. Publicity given
plans in advance also was held to
have had a large part in thwarting
disturbances.
Reports to the department men,
toned number of strikes instituted
during the day, but in nearly every
case case the the reporting agent emphasized
that the Walkouts were local in ma
ture and due to the regular May day
expiration of wage contracts.
The appeal of show Of power"
the cry of the radicals for a demon
stration to the government. in behalf
of soviet Russia also was without
avail, the reports indicated. Speeches
and demands that the United States
resume relations with Russia were
made at meetings in several cities,
Assistant Attorney General Caravan
declared, but the net result was
negligible.
Despite the fact that there were
no reports of attempted assassination
of public officials marked by the rad
icals, it was said tonight that the
government intends to maintain it's
guards over the persons threatened
for some time. Mr.. Garvan pointed
out that, foiled by government
agents, the designated assassinators

What Labor Has Done
"Organized labor was responsible
for the Smith-Hughes law creating
a federal board of Industrial educa-
ton and today it stands firmly for
an abatement of the scandal of low
wages which is emptying our schools
of teachers or putting on the Shout
ders of those devoted enough to
stand by their task the burden of
intolerable poverty.
Labor never has protested over
paying it's fair share of that lib.
eral taxation for the public educa-
ton which has made, this nation a
progressive one, and now it. not
only faVors the most modern and
up-to-date schools, but the best
trained and best paid teachers in the
world.
Labor well knows that in edu.

thing it can to see to it that that
hope shall mot be dimmed by Mig
gardliness or lack of understanding

gives the greatest value for that
which he receives is the more adj
mirable. Today and always labor
has given most and got least. This
perhaps, is changing. If SO, all
will be WE'LL for this is a land of
the majority. and labor comprises
that majority.
"And so, indirectly, have after

for that evolution upward which the
