LAWYERS |NDORSE
 JEFFR|ES' SPEECH

Lawyers from different sections of Alabama who attended the Alabama Bar association conven- tion were unanimous yesterday in indorsing the address of L. E. Jeffries of Washington, who spoke before the meeting Thursday. All characterized the speech as strong paper and very timely.
 Members of the bar from the Tennessee valley, the Wiregrass and the Black Belt are included among those who expressed their sympathy with MT. Jeffries' line of thought
 Ut was indeed strong paper and very timely" declared Borden Burr of Birmingham. Tt does not take very close scrutiny of the situation to see that the facts pre- sented by MT. Jeffries are boldly apparent. The race for regula- tion has gone rather far. It is striking a sensible note when 8 move toward using organic law as a basis for justice again."
 William H. Mitchell of Florence declared himself in full accord with the sentiments of MT. Jeff fries address. The craze to es- tablish restricting bureau one after the other without end must stop. Our government will be such that it would not be recognizable by John Adams or John Marshall as that which they helped start on it's prosperous course"
 c. V. Werner of Tuscaloosa pointed out MT. Jeffries' warning that when the law Is stricken down nation is ruled not by the law but by few men.
 MT. .Jeffries made fine talk" declared Oscar Mulky of Geneva. newly elected president of the bar association. His warning note against the wave of regulation and legislation with it's many bureaus is timely indeed. It Is high time to go back and take stock of the laws given us by the fathers of the republic"
 Lawrence Cooper of Huntsville said: q am heartily in sympathy with MT. Jeffries' ideas and opin ions on the new order. of things. True democracy cannot in truth exist unless the law is ever

Officers Fight Duel
 To theDeath OUer
 COntraband Whisky
Rr Assncinted Press


 Knoxville, Tenn, April 30.-In a pistol duel fought early today in an autono- bile near Knoxville, Robert A. Fuller, special officer employed by the Louis- ville and Nashville railroad, was in- stantIy killed and Irby Scruggs, federal prohibition officer, was so badly wound ed that he died a few hours afterward in the Knoxville General hospital.
 It is claimed and not denied by them that federal raiding officers had been approached by Fuller with a proposition that If he was given a half share of the whisky captured he would lead them to a whisky cache in Blount county which he had visited last Wednesday night. The raid was arranged and successfully carried out Friday night, 100 gallons Of corn whisky being seized and five pris- oners taken. Two of the prisoners were in the same automobile with Fuller and Scruggs and their chauffeur en route to Knoxville, when, says one of the three survivors, the question of the d. vision of the captured whisky arose, Fuller telling Scruggs that he must have half of it. Scruggs then informed Fuller that no such division had been intended and that he himself might get in trouble over the affair. Fuller responded to this by pulling a pistol and shooting Scruggs twice. Scruggs retaliated with Colt special, shooting Fuller five time, each shot penetrating a vital part and in stantly killing Fuller. It is believed there will be no federal investigation or the affair.".

HO0VER'S EUROPEAN
RELIEF WORK GIVEN
CENSURE AND BOOST
(By The Associated Press)

washington, Jan. 6.-Herbert
Hoover's administration of food
relief enterprises in Europe was
criticised and praised in the senate
today during debate resulting
from charges of Senator Reed, dem
crat, Missouri. that Mr., Hoover
had used portion of Americas re
lief appropriations for maintenance
of the Polish army.
Senators Hitchcock, democrat,
Nebraska, and Kellogg, republican,
Minnesota, defended Mr.. Hoover,
while Senator Reed renewed his
criticism.
Mr.. Hoover should be given cred
it for IAN accomplishment whose
magnitude the world wonders at"
Senator Hitchcock declared in pre-
sening matter to show no Ame"i-
can relief supplies had been turned
over to the Polish army. American
army officers, he said, were vigil
liant in their efforts to keep the
supplies for civilian use.
Senator Reed declared it did not
matter whether the supplies won't
to the civilians or army.
"They Were gl}cn To ner fO' hu,
stering aer ~ anf enable her 20
Gerry on her war" he declared, ir-
dicating he would 81 eak later NJ l
present further facts regarding le-
lief funds.
Senator Reed also criticised
American policies, which he said,
had prevented re-opening of Amer
lean commerce with Russia and
Germany.

ENGLAND'S MILITARY
TROPHIES ARE SOLD

London, Jan. 6.--Great Britain's
most ancient military trophies a
Roman battle standard and a Ro-
man generals folding camp chair,
have just been sold for 1900 at a
London auction room. The antiqui-
ties were dug up in Essex a century
ago.
Experts believe that the battle
standard and the camp chair were
captured or lost in the disaster that
overlook the Roman Ninth legion
in A. d. 81. when Boadicea, queen
of Iceni. cut the legion to pieces
as it advanced to relieve Colchester.
Boadicea's Britons. having burned
Roman Colchester. turned upon
the Ninth legion. surprised and de-
stroyed it. The cavalry alone got
away, and it is believed that the
relics were abandoned on the field.
The standard and the chair are
in perfect preservation. The for
mer is a slight and elegant thing
in bronze, topped by four laurel
wreaths of diminishing size. Be-
low is a medallion. bearing on one
side a portrait of Nero. and on the
other an inlaid design showing the
emperor in q triumphal car hold
ing a palm branch and a wreath.
The chair is beautifully worked in
iron overlaid in silver. folding like
a modern camp stool.

CALVIN COOLIDGE
IS PLAIN MISTER
AGAIN FOR A TIME

Boston, Mass, Jan. Calvin
Coolidge was plain citizen to-
night, the first time in ten years.
He went to the family fireside at
Northampton for a rest from af-
fairs of state before becoming a
vice president.
The transition from governor to
citizen was accomplished simply.
In an informal meeting that had
much of ceremonial to it, the re-
firing governor handed Charming
II. Cox, his successor, the key of
the executive chamber, the Butler
Bible and the arrowhead and flint
that signify the duty of keeping
faith with the senate's vanishing
Indian charges. Then without Of
ticial escort he left the executive
chambers by a side door while in
the main entry the inaugural process
sion of Governor Cox began to
form. Citizen Coolidge found
friends awaiting him below and
with them he walked out of the
state house while the band blared
a hail to the new chief.
After luncheon with friends the
vice president elect set out for
home. At the station he had to
edge the way for Mrs. Coolidge
through a crowd and then seek a
seat. They rode in day coach, the
man reading newspaper and the
woman knitting a sock.
Governor Cox in his inaugural
address recalled the Ponzi quick
rich scheme in urging protection of
small investors as one of the most
urgent problems before the COM
monwealth. He declared worthless
or fraudulent securities amounting
to at least $50, 100000 are sold am
.nually in Massachusetts,.

HACERMAN AND
JOERNS CLASH
OVER REPORTS
Majority and Minority Fac
tons of Special Revenue
Commission Engage in a
Verbal Duel.

Santa Fe, Jan. 6.-The charge
by John Joerns, in his minority re-
port as member of the special rev.
enue commission, that the major
ity had gone beyond its authority
in investigating governmental and
institutional expenditure, drew fire
from former Governor Fl. j. Ha-
german, head OF the special reVe-
nue. commission, at the conference
of taxing and assessing officials
today. He cited the appropriations
asked by the ten institutions,
which 50 far have submitted their
estimates to the governors office,
as Justification
The ten, he said, have asked for
$2,297.S05 for the years Of 1922
and 1923. For 1920 and 1921, they
get $S0S,306. OF the $2,297,805,
they now ask, $1.S65,3 800 will be
asked from the coming legislature
as direct appropriations.
Mr.. Hagerman also held that the
legislative act creating the com
mission gave it ample authority for
the scope of its Investigations and
added that he expected oppositior
from the bureaucratic group,
which, he said, existed here, and
taxpayers who looked for personal
advantage from the status quo. He
said that Mr.. Joerns had given the
majority little cooperation and Mr..
Joerns replied that his duties as
secretary of the state tax commits
sion demanded the greater part of
his time.
He believed he was entitled to
an Independent view, he said, and
added that he didn't share the be-
lief that the mining interests were
tax dodgers, robbers and thieves
as stated in certain newspapers"
Governor Mechem speaking OF
the commissions report, said he
had read it but hastily and wasn't
prepared to state his conclusions
from the first glance. He approved
it's spirit, however, and said that
even if the majority had exceeded
its authority, he had no doubt that
its recommendation would be
found valuable anyhow.
