Whether person who is paid by a local corporation to solicit workmen on the street of Birmingham is labor agens under the interpretation of the city or dinanco was a question that came before Recorder Henry J. Martin yesterday.
 The question came up in the case of J. M. McAfee, who was arraigned on a charge of acting as a labor agent for the Republic Steel and Iron Compan, without licenses. The city prescribes q license for all persons who run a labor bureau and heavy penalty for It's viola ton.

]EMISON STRESSES
 NEED FOR HOUSES
Tells Rotarians That Bir- mingham Is Losing for
 Lack of Room

Robert Jemison, Jr.. made brief talk at the Rotary luncheon yesterday on city zoning. which he assured the members was a splendid way to protect property in city this size.
 He explained the zoning plan as in- dorsed by the Real Estate Exchange, and asked the indorsement and cooperation of the Rotary Club. By this zoning sys- tenn, he stated, section of the city would be devoted to residences, one to stores and business houses. one to manu- featuring plants and one to plants from which fumes were objectionable.
 He declared it would take mucn ,,ms and hard work to complete this zoning plan. but if maintained person could build and would be assured that no store or other building that would in any way tend to the deterioration of property would be built in that distrlcr.
 The club referred this matter to the miscellaneous committee.
 In addition, MT Jemison spoke of the housing conditions of Birmingham, which he stated were acute and would pi iobably become more so in the future. A town cannot be built without relieving the acute housing condition. he stated, and this cannot be done unless the in- vestor is assured a fair profit on his investment.
 He referred to the editorial appearing in The Age-Herld of Wednesday, in which it was stated that more than s. 000o0o had been spent in Atlanta in buildings for the first six months of 1920 as compared to 5000. 600 spent in Birming- ham. This is one of the answers. he de- clared. for a person will not invest in property when he can make more money in bonds and other things
 Another reason. he said, is the fact that the people spend too much money for luxuries. and instead of buying homes they are buying automobiles silk shirts and other things as is shown by the gov ernnent statistics.
 Birmingham Is losing daily good citi- gems who are knocking at her door just because she cant take care of them. They are going to Memphis, Atlanta and other cities" MT. Jemison concluded
 President Percy Woodall presided at the meeting which was largely attended. Thornton Estes announced that the rec ords of the proceedings of the interna- tional convention could be purchased and all wanting them could notify the 'secre- tary
 Angus Taylor made a report on the International Rotary convention, held at Atlantic City recently, to the members of the local club yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock in the ballroom of the Tutwiler hotel. He went into details regarding the sessions and the talks made by speakers.
