IN his biennial report to the gov
erncr. State engineer Scrugham says
that more than 90 percent Of the wa
ter fd','ng on the mountains in Ne
vala goes to waste because OF lack
OF catchment and storage facilities.
Tie declares that q portion of this
water sinks into the gravel beds in
the vartt us valleys and can be re-
covered from the ground by pump
ing CT by artisan wells.
Urder the heading, Ground Wa
ters." it is explained that "the to-
biography Of Nevada is made up of
series Of troughlike valleys lying
Letween mountain ranges. These val

are filled with alluvial debris from

tsIy established that economic guam

obtained from the buried stream

SOUTH WILL RETURN
 ID NORMAL FIRST.
Head of TriverS' Chain of Stores Talks of Business
 Conditions

Nathan Trivers, head of a chain of 26 clothing stores over the country IA of which are in the south, ex- pressed the opinion yesterday that this section will return to normal sooner than any other section, of the country.
 MT. Trivers, who is a business man with interests in many cities is spending a few days in Birmingham at the Tutwiler hotel, and is paying visit to his local store 1909 Sec ond avenue. He Is accompanied by J. M. Cooper general manager of the southern store; H. D. Sabine and Ed ward Collins.
 The south," Mir. Trivers said. will soon get upon it's feet financi ally. While the southern merchants had more prosperity during the war than they had ever dreamed of, they were not spoiled by living luxuriously and above their means. They have remained conservative and level headed. and have every confidence that they will come through the slump In the industrial world with flying colors.
 our business has prospered in the south l find that, regardless of the tight money market, there is plenty of business to be had. You must do the right thing at the right price, and If you are willing to give good val ues and take small profits you will get volume of sales to comuare favorably with 1920"

S1O,0OO BONDS
 ARE FORF FITTED
Defendants Charged With SWindIing Scheme Fail to
 Appear in Court

Bonds for s1O,O0O each for J. J. Huntington, J. H. Conley' Charles McCord and George W. Lloyd were forfeited when they failed to appear In federal court in Huntsville, ac- cording to Jim c. Smith, assistant dis trict attorney. who returned from Huntsville yesterday
 The four men were alleged to nave been connected with swindling scheme in which they offered a wealthy Indiana planter bogus stock in exchange for Liberty bonds. A meeting with the planter was pro posed at Huntsville, but before he had converted his bonds into cash he was warned of their scheme and did not lose his money.
 After trailing the men, post-office inspectors captured them at Cincin- rati. They were brought to Birming- ham and placed in the county jail.
 Bond was granted them by the United States commissioner at St. Louis. and the bonds were signed by residents of that city. The court an nounced that the bonds had been for feited after their failure to appear.

SP|LLANE THINKS
 PRICES TOO HIGH
No Time Now for Advancing With Adjustment Just
 Starting

Richard Spillane. who is visiting the large cities of the country and making analysis of their financial, industrial and commercial status. Is of opinion that one of the grave dangers confronting general business Is inability or unwillingness on the part of manufacturers, wholesalers. jobbers and retailers in many lines to realize that full recovery and con- tinued prosperity depend on taking small profits.
 Lumber and textiles, he declares. are among the industries that have failed to realize this. This has been shown in advances in prices in these lines. A
 Mir. spillane believes that with the beginning of the year the steel in dustry will be on 50 per cent basis, the railroads contributing their share to activity In steel by their purchas- ing.
 The failure of the proposed rail- road strike, says Mir. Spillane, marks one of the greatest defeats labor has sustained. The inevitable reaction is the lessening of prestige for the labor leaders. But had the strike occurred, the unions would inevitably have been defeated. The rank and file of American men hoped for that result and felt almost a sense of dlsappoint- ment that the strike was averted."

REDUCED RATESON
 GRAIN PRODUCTS
Twenty to Forty Per Cent Re- duCtion on Entire Frisco
 System

Reduced rates on grain and grain products over the entire Frisco sys- tenn have been announced in tele- gram to Dan F. McDonough. division freight agent.
 The reductions will run from 20 to 40 per cent under the present charges and will be especially fa- vorable for movements of grain to the gulf ports for export.
 Speaking of the new rates. MT. Me- Donough said:
 For sometime the railroads have been considering a reduction in the rates on grain and all grain products. The St. Louis-San Francisco railway, through it's vice president in charge of traffic, Alexander Hilton, today announced its intention of making a substantial reduction In the rates on wheat, corn, barley, oats, hay, flour. and, in fact, all products of the soil.
 This means that the rates on wheat from stations in Oklahoma and Kansas to gulf ports for export will be reduced from to Az cents per bushel. The cost of moving grain from the country elevators to the milling point will be lowered up- wards of 10 per cent, and ought to be imm mediately reflected in the price of flour. with the miller giving the consumer the benefit of the reduc- tion.
 Rates on corn will be reduced 20 per cent. thereby rendering substan- tial assistance to the farmer for feed ing stock. Also reducing the cost of corn to the millers. resulting in reduction of the price of corn meal and kindred products.
 These reductions made by the St. Louis-San Francisco railway are part of a general policy of that company to do everything possible to assist In the development of the farm and farm products in the territory cover ed by its rails."

 OF HAMPTON'S LEGION

Daniel Zimmerman Is dead. He was Sl years old. He was found lifeless Tn bed yesterday morning. Heart failure. due to attendance on the re- union of veterans of the Confederacy, recently held in Chattanooga, is given as the cause.
 MT Zimmerman was a member of that unit of the Confederate army which. with literally no equipment, scattered benumbing odds in battle after battle. the world famous lamp ton Legion.
 Gen. Wade Hampton succeeded to the command of the Confederate cav airy after the death of Gen. J. E. B.

 IndustriaI Service
 G. w. Archer talked Interestingly of the real service performed by air squadrons for city, county and state. Tn Philadelphia" he said, the fliers took members of the industrial rela- tions committee of the chamber of commerce over the city and showed them the long strings of idle cars, the smokeless stacks of industries, and the like evidences of unemploy- ment. In this way the committee was enabled to glimpse and visualize the city's industrial situation and the further result was that the Knowledge thus acquired enabled them to take steps that put some industries at work and gave employment to many thousands of men.
 That is an example of how a fly ing squadron may help the city and county In emergencies.
 Tt offers q fine opportunity for red-blooded young men and we hope the requisite number will enlist right away so that we may acquire the equipment and be prepared to serve. I am sure the service will prove at tractive."

Crimson White Team
 10 Be Giuer Housing
 Welcome on ArriuaZ
Alabama Alumni and Friends Will Back Up Team to Last Ditch in Game With Vanderbilt-Pigskin Warriors to Be Guests of Rotary Club.
 Student Body to Attend Game
By GEORGE A CORNISH

Birmingham alumni and friends of the University of Alabama are pre- pairing to give a rousng welcome to the Crimson White team and suppor- ters when they arrive in the city Saturday morning for the annual game with Vanderbilt.
 News that a holiday has been de- clared It the school Tor the occasi on in order that the student body may come up to the game has been greeted with enthusiasm by local supporters of the Crimson tide, who are looking forward to a great scrap when the whistle blows for the game to com mence at Redwood field.
 Crimson White packers will be- gin arriving in Birmingham Friday afternoon, and from the time the van guard pulls In until the last man leaves to return to Tuscaloosa friends of the school are expecting to show them that Birmingham is extending a cordial welcome.
 The fact that large percentage of the student body register from Birmingham will mean that a num- Der of the students will come early and stay over until Monday morning.
 Wili Support Team
 While Birmingham alumni of the university are not over confident as to the outcome, they intend to give the team their support, and will be at the game Saturday afternoon in large numbers.
 While m the city the Alabama team will be officially the guests of the Birmingham Rotary club. A com mittee headed by Hugh Morrow, prominent alumni of the club, is working out plans for entertaining the members of the squad. The unl- versity coaches have requested that no social functions be planned for the team prior to the game, but the Rotary committee is planning to place automobiles at the disposal of the team. An automobile trip over the city is also planned.
 The team will arrive in Birming- ham Saturday ~morning at 10 o'clock at the Louisville and Nashville sta ton on special train from Tusca- loosa. The university band will also arrive on this train as will several hundred students.
 Stage n Parade
 Immediately after arriving here. the students will stage a parade
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-11-04

through the downtown streets to the Tutwiler hotel, where a pep meeting will be held under the direction of Bunson Battle. the university cheer leader.
 No general luncheon has been planned for the day due to the fact that luncheon was held two weeks ago for the game with Sewanee. A number of fraternities, however, are planning luncheons for their active and alumni members.
 The Crimson and White supporters as usual will occupy the right field bleachers at the game, with the Van derbi,t supporters on the opposite side of the field. Both teams will have bands with them, and this is ex- pccted to be, one of the features of the day at Rickwood.
 Both schools are expected to stage the usual snake dances" between halves at the game. and the field will be covered with supporters of the schools.
 Revenge For Defeat
 In addition to the mem bers of the student body, & number of university alumni from all parts of the state are expected lO tOtnb tO III for the game. The interest the alumni from all parts of the state are expected to come to Birmingham for the game. The interest the alumni of Vanderbilt are taking in attempting to get revenge for their defeat last year has interested the former students of Alabama in the game, and they are expected to come to Birmingham in large numbers.
 Arrangements have been made by the Junior Chamber of Commerce for having the colors of both the schools featured in the windows of Birming- ham stores and business houses. The restaurants and hotels have been re- quested to display the colors in order to show that Birmingham is extend- ing a welcome to the two schools.
 Following the game Saturday night. the annual Alabama Wander bilt dance will be held at tho Tut wiler hotel. The special train with the Alabama men will leave for Tus- caioosa at midnight.
 Tickets for the game will be on sale today and tomorrow at the down town drug stores.
