ITO the Editor of The Age-Heraid:
 "J. O. O'Connor was right in regard to the city of Birmingham, only he should have made 1t stronger and said some thing about several other things.
 q also agree with MT. Jack N. McDon- aid and R. H. Johnson in their comments in today's Age-Herald.
 What if MT. OConnor was looking for just what he found, it was here, was it not?
 There have been some very tame ex- cuses put up trying to protect some of our city officials. I have been in Br- mingham since January ', 1920, and if there ever was a place where there is plenty of wild women and whisky, Bir- mingham is the place.
 ''I have been going to a business col lege of this city and would like to say that so far as the jelly beans are con- cerned, they are not all college boys, but will admit that the college students make up quite a bunch of the so-caled jelly beans

SEAB0ARD BUYING
 GAVE FIRMNESS TO
 THE GRAIN MARKET
By AssooIated Prs..

Chicago, September l. Persistent buying for seaboard account gave firm ness today to the wheat market. The close was unsettled half to cent net higher with December 2,35 and March 2.30%. Corn lost 2s to 2A cents; oats finished unchanged to h9% cents lower, and provisions down five to fifty-fiye cents.
 Bulls had the advantage in the wheat maret throughout the day except dur ing brief setback shortly after the opening. The chief influence was the general belief that the demand from the seaboard indicated export business on large scale. Estimates were cur rent that 1,000000 bushels had been dis posed of to Europe in addition to like amount yesterday. Besides country of ferings were light, and there was gos- sip that a holding attitude had become widespread among farmers. Further more, a leading authority figured the 1920 crop as meaning a total supply 74,000,000 bushels less than last year.
 Corn weakened, owing to failure of frost predica tions and bearish crop esti- mates. One expert suggested a proba- ble yield of 3,20S.00O.o00 as against 2,003 900 900 bushels the prospect a month ago. Oats were easier with corn and there was some hedging pressure in evidence
 Heavy deliveries on September con- tracts weighed down provisions. Car riers sold the October deliveries.

criticism of their city and state. by J. O. O Connor of Chicago, have grasped the fact that what was said, not who said it, counts.
 Additional comments are as follows: HENRY GRUSIN
 ''To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 While 1 am not in accord with MT. J. o. OConnor of Chicago, l must ad- init that your laws are too numerous. It is plain folly to dig for new laws, since you have a time complying with those in force today.
 "A sblue Sunday does not exactly write an automatic invitation to people who wish to make change, and who might otherwise consider Birmingham.
 Why don't you allow your theatres to keep open Sunday? If only matinees were allowed, the churches would not suffer any materially, nor morally. In twenty years from today-I venture to say every church, from Mormon temple to the Catholic churches, will own mo- tion picture machine and silver screen to help the work and Word of the Lord sink deep into the hearts of men and women.
 Ut used to be out here in the coun- try, no one ever ventured to play the fiddle on Sunday The Devils Fiddle
  church service is complete without the music of strings.
 Time changes the features of the sphinx-we are living in a most exacting world-we have gotten on to the art Of making our church a pleasant institu- tion: we have done away with the terri ble fears and frightful threats of our pastors We can just as well arrange programmes in our theatres to help lift and assist the work of our church work CTS, at the same time have it entertain ing.
 Why do you trust your daughter at Keith's or moving picture shows all the week and think it awful to have her be there Sunday?
 The people of Birmingham want more joyful life, more pleasant condi- tions, better homes for the amount of rent paid, better streets and better mu- nicipal institutions.
 AS to MT. O'Connor, he may be a pro- rhet. he may be the greatest man in the world, but he is a mighty poor Jonah to attack Minervah seven hundred miles away
