GOVERNMENT SEEKS CONVERSATION OF
 TAILORING SHOP


 Libel proceedings seeking to con- demn and confiscate all property and equipment in the tailoring shop of Max Friedland on Bank street, Decatur. were filed in the United States district court yesterday by James c. Smith, assistant United States attorney.
 It is alleged that on recent raid by federal prohibition enforcement of- ficers two 5-gallon copper stills and all paraphernalia for their, operation were found in the shop, together with some liquor and beer
 Because of this alleged violation of the national prohibition law, the gov ernment instituted the proceedings to confiscate the shop, its fixtures and equipment. Friedland was arrested at that time, as was Robert Morrison, who was at work in the shop at the time of the raid
 Criminal information against both of these men, charging violation of the national prohibition law was also filed yesterday and they will be tried in the federal court in Huntsville in April.

GENERAL zON|NG
 ORDINANCE WILL
 BE SOUGHT HERE
Real Estate Board Suggests General Meeting of 0rgani- zations to Form Course of
 Action for the Future

Adoption of zoning ordinances which will be general in their appli- cation will be recommended by mem bers of the Birmingham Real Estate board to the City Commission at their meeting next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.
 A resolution emphasizing the need for a comprehensive zoning plan for the city of Birmingham, and asking that a general committee be formed to formu- late such a plan. was passed by the realtors at their luncheon at the South ern club.
 Composition of the committee was sug- gested as follows: The city commission and the city engineer, a menrser of each of the following organizations: Birming- ham Chamber of Commerce, Birmingham Civic Association. Architects association, Rotary club. Kiwanis club. Civitan club Community club. Exchange club. Wom- an's council and Real Estate board
 Immediate action will be urged by the delegation. They will point out that piece-meal zoning will result in costly litigation, and that it is the best propo- sition to pass a general law now
 Henry F. Burruss, commissioner ot public Improvements. spoke before the clum on the matter of zoning. He de- clared he realized the necessity of a just and equitable zoning law as a practical base for city planning. Action. up to this time has been taken hastily as the cases came up.
 Tt is highly expedient that the city adopt a general zoning law" Commits sioner Burruss told his hearers. Tt is necessary from the standpoint of public health, safety and welfare"
 Proper regard for the rights of prop erty owners must be shown, said Judge E. NJ. Allen, speaking iii support of the zoning system. Flexibility of such law was also stressed by Judge Allen Manu- facturer as we'll as the owner of resi- Gence property should be protected un- der the workings of Q zoning law, he de- elared.
 The board seemed to be very strongly in favor of the adoption of general zoning system for the city and will urge such action by the city commission.

 RAMSAY TO BE HOST
 The regular meeting night of the of the dinner last night Erskine Ram say extended an invitation to the troop and sponsors to be his guests at a similar dinner next Tuesday night.
 From business point of view Ad- jutant General Moon called attention to a fact, which has generally been overlooked and that is the direct money return that comes to the city from the various military units of the na- tional guard which will have their homes in Birmingham. The salaries alone paid out by the government mean thousands of dollars year, while the equipment which will be placed here is very important iten
 For the aero squadron alone the gov ernment equipment costs about s130,00o while for the cavalry the government supplies all the horses and maintains them here for the use of the troopers and the mounts are in charge of regu. lar army men who will be stationed here for that purpose.
 Capt. Carter in his talk stressed the importance they were putting on get

! Adjutant General Moon explained in
 some detail the provisions the govern

 tions and pointed out that in the eu : 1 tire national guard of the country there
 would be only one other such unit as
 that which is now being organized in
 Alabama of which the Birmingham troop would be parts lie save details of the cost of the equipment the gov- ernment furnishes, of the regular army men it would bring to Birmingham, and
 the pay rolls which would be disbursed 1 by the government among the guards
 men.
 MT. Stallings in his talk stressed
 the recreational features of beIonglng
 to such troop and the chance for training at government expense He expressed the conviction that the men who Joined would be much more than repaid by any inconvenience which might be caused them.
 Capt. Carter said that their goal for
 the troop was 72 men, although they
 would get government recognition as soon as they had fifty, and that some
 thing over thirty were already signed
 up as members. He said that last nights meeting was the best that they had ever had and on behalf of the troop expressed their appreciation of the interest that had been shown by their sponsors His belief was that with such cooperation and assistance
 the future success of the troop was assured
