Wonen's League Officials
 AdUocdte an 8-Hour Dav

Advocating an eight-hour day for all women in industry and urging the members of the Birmingham League of Women Voters to cooperate in having legislation passed which will give the women laborers of the state better working conditions. were the chief points brought out by Miss Mary Mcdowell chairman of the cont mittee on women in industry of the league of women voters in her address before the Birmingham league yester- day at 1:30 at the Southern cluD.
 Her talk was followed by one from Miss Katherine Ludinston of Conpeti- cut on Why League of Women Voters"
 About 150 women gathered to greet the natlonl1 officers and listen to their talks
 Alabama is one of the six states in the union having no regulations gov erning the number of hours of the woman in industry" said Miss Mo. Dowell This means that in the dis tricts where women are employed in factories and other industries 3l2 ou, of every 1000 babies born die. Where the mothers of children are taken care of properly. just l22 out of every 1,oOC babies die."

they need the care and heIp of the educated, cultured women of every sec tion."
 WHY THE ORGANIZATION
 In speaking of the reason for the organization of the National League of Women Voters Miss Ludington told of the many legislation projects which the league hoped to have enacted for women and children and number of other reasons why the league should exist.
 This organization invites the wom :. an voter to come into it and here find herself and learn how. to make her vote effective for women. While we would not under existing circun- : stances. want to destroy the political parties. still we are hoping to fur- nish through the league of women voters some common ground on which the two factions can meet together and work to do the things which are needed in this country; in other words destroy the pernicious influence of partisanship.
 PARTY GROUPINGS
 We will advocate extra par.y groupings for municipal elections where the parties should not count especially, anyway. We hope to bet ter the political status of women. ia remove the artificial limitations ss, on women and put them in a position where they can give to the govern ment woman's service and woman's point of view.
 "It is the aim of the league of women voters to remain organised un- til they can place the points of view of men and women on 50-S0 basis jr politics, in law, in. industry, in busA. ness and in all daily life.
 Politicians today want nothinr buI smoothly working parties, run alona the Prussian system which we fourhi go vigorously year or two aro parties where every member acccdes te dictates of the leaders and votes tht straight ticket. The biggest reasor of all why women are working todd, is to make this party system less hide, bound, make every man and womer take an active. vigorous interest IT politics. and give the individual citi sen chance to express an opinion The two addresses, together viii some announcements made by Mrs. A |J- Bowron, chairman of the stat. league, completed the programme.

 Where asked: Twentieth street and Third avenue.

By H. W. scHAEFER

From complaints which are en- tered daily in the department of public improvement and sanitation at the city hall, and from inter- views with housewives of the city, it would seem that the collectors of garbage are waging war to the death with the garbage cans of Birmingham's citizens.
 Hardly day passes without sew eral persons protesting against the maner in which the cans are dented. One housekeeper said her can has been so scandalously manhandled that it now resent bles nothing so much as zinc arti- choke.
 According to the complaints. the men come along laughing and talk ing. tossing the cans from the top of pile of garbage on the wag- ons to the street, shortening the life of the receptacle materially, often irrevocably.
 To ascertain whether the condi- ton was merely one created by persons laboring under the stress of the moment, several prominent women were asked their expert ence in regard to the collection of garbage from their homes
 According to Mrs. J. L. Drennen, 106S Thirty second street, south, the drivers and the men who col lect the garbage are exceedingly careless in their work
 The service is very poor. so far as my personal experience is con cerned. The men damage the yards. and are not very careful to make sure that the garbage is placed on the wagon and not in the streets. The cans are roughly handled, also 8 new one being invariably dam- aged after the wagon has passed one time.'
 The service is terrible, accord ing to Mrs. F. W. Smith, Chestnut Hill.
 The wagons come once week some times. The men are al=

 rested on charges of violation of the li- quor laws
 T think our department has made an unusually good record since the first of the year. said Sheriff Hartsfield yes- terday. "and 1 believe can safely say that the crime wave has passed. It has passed because every officer working either for the city or the county got behind the thing and pushed with all his might.
 STATE
 Conrad Austin, state law enforcement officer yesterday was out of the city, but the records of his department when they are opened for inspection will make a good showing. Practically all of Mir Austins time and also that of his men since the first of the year has been taken up with duties in the strike zones. but at the same time they have made approximately hundred arrests in the past few weeks
 Two months ago, police reports show thieves were stealing automobiles on the downtown streets at the rate of from three to five a day. DeGroat and Hol- lums, detectives. have recovered prac- tically % per cent of the stolen cars. Only few convictions have resulted from arrests made in practically every case because. officers say, when the cars are returned to the owners they do not want to appear against the thief as they say the car is all they wanted. and to let the thief have another chance. FEDERAL N. L Pierce, federal prohibition agent, says he firmly believes the police au- thorltes of Birmingham have succeeded l In restoring order
 T know that our part in breaking up the crime wave has been accomplished" said Mir. Pierce "and judging from the small number of law violations nov. 1 believe all the other officers in the city have done their part"
 | Federal prohibition officers operating 1 from Mir. Pierce's office at the postof- ord since the first of the year. Two hundred stills have been captured and destroyed since the first of the year An average of two persons were arrest cd at each still
 | Sixteen thousand gallons of beer has been destroyed during the past six weeks by the federal prohibition officers 1 and approximately 1000 gallons of rye and corn whisky has been captured. Six mules and wagons and f4 automo- riles, besides about s10o.000 worth of property, has also been confIscated by the federal agents
 ger" stated MT. Pierce, for If we went after him we would have to let some of | the big ones go. We are going after the source of the thing and I do not believe that the moonshiners can hold | up much longer if we are to continue ! hammering away at them as we have
 been doing during the past few months. {

Garbage Cans Look Like Zinc Artichokes After The
 ScaUengers HaUe Passed

ways damaging the cans by the way they throw them around. The irregularity of the service, how ever, is my chief complaint"
 Birmingham should have more pride than to have garbage cans sitting out in front of the homes in the residential sections" de- clared Mrs. Val J. Nesbit, 3219 Glen avenue. Housewives are weekly treated to the spectacle of five or six negroes riding along, talking and laughing. They leave the garbage cans in front of the houses. throwing the cans In careless manner from the top of the wagon. 1o my mind, 1t Is a real civic problem
 II have experienced & great deal of trouble with the garbage col- lectors," said Mrs. s. L. Ledbetter, lo5o Avenue J. The men are very irregular in their service, sometimes coming once a week. and sometimes not for 10 days or two weeks. Invariably. the cans are damaged by rough handling Undoubtedly we need better serv- ice in the matter of garbage col lections."
 This condition is not peculiar to South Highlands, and this is borne out by Mrs. E. L. Speight, 2So4 Eleventh avenue. north, who complains of the rough handling of her garbage cans.
 The service is very unsatisfac- tory,' declared Mrs. Speight. The men carry away just what they want to take. The wagons are piled so high with refuse that many times the route of the wag- ons can be traced by a trail of garbage in the streets. The nor tality rate among my garbage cans IS very high. also. There is a stone wall which bears the brunt of assaults made by the men, who evidently try to throw the can through this wall. The effect of this treatment on the can can well be imagined"
