The excellent feeling that exists
between Georgia Tech players and
tcp Hilltoppers was never better
shown than in the visits that were
exchanged Friday between members
OF both teams. Jack Flavin Is a
great admirer of Buck Flowers who
now is an assistant coach at Tech
These two recalled the game OF last
year when little Buch ran wild and
earned a compliment from the bat
tered Flavin as the two teams walked
off the field.
Ferst Is Spotted.
Frank Ferst. Tech varsity half
back and of Hebraic extraction, was
eagerly sought after by the Hill
toppers. Last season they became
crossed up and thought Dummy"
Lebcy was Ferst. No end of persi-
flage was flung in the ears OF the
hard-working Lebey last year. This
time Ferst has been spotted by the
Irishmen.
For the first time in the history
of the series, Georgetown rules favor
ite wherever odds are quoted differ
emily from even. The heavy rush
line that Exendine has assembled,
and the driving power of McQuade,
Kenyon and Flavin, was deemed
better machine than Tech has this
year. Chance was seen for the first
Georgetown victory in history and
Atlantians, many Of them, Will be
there to see the job well done this
afternoon.
The Tornado enters the game with
a fun strength varsity backfield and
a patched-up line. Injuries to two
regular tackles kept them out OF the
most desirous battle. McCree broke
his leg at the Polo Grounds and
Lyman is laid up with wrenched
ligament. Al station has been moved
into a tackle berth. Charlie johnson
occupies the other vacancy and Cor.
nell. a sophomore. is starting his
first game at right end
Depends on Speed.
Tech is depending upon speed in
attack to win. Lessons in delayed
bucks learned at Penn State are ex.
pected to prove valuable. Techs air
game, never a strong factor in scor.
ing, has been brushed up. Ferst and
Brewster will do the punting.
No workout was staged by the Hill
Toppers Friday. They had a miser.
able trip to Atlanta-no heat in the
pullman and delayed schedule. Coach
Exendine took his men for walk
and returned to the hotel for supper.
A movie was visited in the evening
and an early bedtime ordered. The
lineup was announced by the coaches.

 4 HUMANE IMMIGRANT UNIT

From the Tampa Tribune
 A writer to the New York Times makes practical suggestion which if adopted should prevent some of the distressing separations now oc- curing daily under the immigrant quota law. His idea is that families be counted as units rather than as individuals.
 This, like all other suggestions, Is open to criticism and liable to abuse if adopted, but 1t is founded on req son and humanity. Under the pres ent ruling a father, mother and three or four older children may be admitted, and then a little one of five years or less may be rked for detention or deportation because the national quota for the month has been filled. Married couples may be parted similarly, and other un- wise and inhpmane partings may be ordered.
 There is much to be done and un- done before immigration is handled properly. but pending the enactment of entirely satisfactory laws. some such alleviating measure might be considered by Congress.

 am certain that Edward E.

NED BRACE TALKS ABOUT THE ATTACKS UPON IPOLICIES OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD

N ENAToR TOM HEFLIN of Ala N bama has broken out again in
 an attack upon what he char acterizes as the "deflation campaign conducted by the federal reserve board"
 He declares that That board's deadly deflation policies robbed the south and west of billions and bil- lions of dollars"
 In his latest speech Alabama's iu- nior senator holds the federal re- serve board responsible for the for mer low prices of government bonds. Some time ago he intimated that Gov. W P. G. Harding and the feder- al reserve board were. responsible for the low price of cotton.
 Indeed Senator Heflin seems to make the federal reserve board the target for his pyrotechnic political speeches in the Senate, that board seeming to be his favorite for cam paign speeches regardless of the fact that fellow Alabamian is at the head of the board.
 The practical people of this country know that Governor Harding, as the leading spirit of the federal reserve board, conducted it's policies in such a maner as to prevent panic in this country It was Harding's judgment and sound financial policies which stabilized the business of this coun- try and put the farmers, producers and manufacturers on sound basis. Had he done what the politicians advised and urged. the country's business would today have been chaotic.
 From the practical side the pol:- cies of the federal reserve board tlded the southern farmer over and have resulted in putting him on sound basis. For instance In January 1920, the Atlanta reserve bank had loans on agricultural products and live stock of s6sS,ooo. In January 1921, this same reserve bank had out :. standing loans on agricultural products and live stock of $14,926,- 000 thus enabling the farmers of

l, this section to finance their affairs and get on their feet. # x # It Is true that government bonds were at one time selling at low price but today like all other substantial securities they have gone back up and the victory issues were quoted yesterday at 994S.
 The federal reserve board is a product of the democratic sdminis tration. It is the one substantial thing for which achievement the democratic party has been proud. The democratic governor of this board has been retained by republican admin istration simply because hls work merited his retention. The business interests of the country have conff- dence in him and he will probably remain in his present position as long as he will consent to do so. It is therefore indeed strage that an Alabama senator would take so many occasions to politically criticize a fellow A1abamian who has been such sturdy pillar of this great gov- ernment.

 Some hot old fights are anticipated In the extra session of the state leg islature which convenes in Mont gomery on Tuesday.
 The principal one will probably be over the proposed enactment of 9 law by which labor union organ ization can be held responsible for it's acts, and can be sued and made to pay damages.
 The labor union men are expected to appear at Montgomery in num- bers to fight this proposed legislation and the indications are it will be a long and bitter contest.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
ARouT nIamINGHAM

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 In reading the daily papers, I no- tice thot Birmingham Is held up as the city of vice. As man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Nobody but a narrow minded, preJudiced person wolud say that. I have known Birmingham for I6 years. and what I say would not be drop in the bucket, but am going to say 1t any way. l have said 1t a thousand times and 1t sworth repeating, for It's spirit of friendliness and cooperation: It is not excelled by any city in this good old U. s. A. It's morals are as good as the average and superior to some from a knocker.
 Just a word here about the Bell Telephone company, which is a school of knowledge in itself. Every par ticle of business Is carried on with clock-like precision. The girls are trained thoroughly in the work be- forehand. And nowhere are the morals of the girls safeguarded more than here. Every known device of the superior kind Is there for their comfort and pleasure at their rest perioids.
 Those on the outside don't know like those on the iaside. Everything is clean and straight up and down. No use to speak of the marvellous in- dustries, etc. there. But to be there al night and see the myriads of lights twinkling from East Lake to Fairfield Is wonderful, and early in the morn ing when the city Is waking up, and you know that thousands of hearts are beating all around you in unison with your own, you just feel part or 1t. It's in the air, and everywhere that's the magic part And If you are big -hearted and broad minded, you will say truly, God is great, and so Is Birmingham Yours very truly,

PAPER HATS FOR ECONOMY

From the Montreal Star.
 Montreal women are wearing paper hats and laughing at milliners.
 The idea of wearing hats made from crepe paper is not an orig inal one and neither is the sugges- tion as startling as it looks at first. In Germany they have gone even fur ther and when the reaction set in after the war and clothes could not be had, the German frau and the fraulein took to wearing paper coats, paper dresses, paper hats and paper shoes.
 Paper hats first made their appear ance on this side of the Atlantic mer headwear was seen at the fash ionable summer resorts. The great attraction of these hats was that at small cost milady could have diff ferent hat to match in color her large wardrobe of dresses A shape of canvas, roll of crepe paper, a spool of thread and the hat was made in little time.
 Almost the very first store to take notice was stationery on Notre dame. west, whose owner fitted up whole window with crepe paper of the most glorious colors and then displayed two or three hats In the making to introduce the idea. The first few days nobody took notice. Then things began to hum and roll after roll of crepe paper was sold. Not only did the stores selling crepe paper profit, but the 5. 10 and Is cent stores began selling canvas shapes
 With money scarce and the need to economize very imperative, the girls soon decided that the hats could be made practical by simply rubberiz- ing them with a certain soap sold by druggists. so that they would not become useless if worn in a rain shower.
 The cost of the hat is 4s cents without any trimming. A shape could be bought for 25 cents, roll of pa- per for 15 cents and spool of thread costs cents. With a fancy hatpin used ~as trimming and a piece of silk as lining. such hat, after being rubberized. would be quite ap- propriate to wear this fall.

 has been no mere idle traveller. but went with the definite purpose to learn something about trade condi-
 tions as they related themselves to

 the premiers of some of the leading
 nations: Arthur Meighan. of Can- ada; Sir James Craig. New State
 Northern Ireland; William Hughes, of Australia; William Ferguson Mas sey, of New Zealand; Lloyd George, of England, and others. Small won | der, then, that he was invited by l President Harding to call at the White House. and give him his per sonal impressions of what he had

[ to oppose the passage of such law
 As matter of fact an effort i being made to change the laws Alabama so that cereal beverage such as Bevo and the like, containing one-half of one per cent Of alcoho can be cold in the state. As 1t i now nothing which tastes like beer smells like beer or looks like beer can be sold in the state. Indeed ni product of the old breweries made from hops and malt can be sold re gardless of it's non-alcoholic content
 < * *
 The present law deprives the state of a large revenue and has put ou. of commission the machinery ana buildings formerly used as breweries
 Of course the law is unjust, unfair and undemocratic.
 The opponents of the proposed law assert that they do not object te Bevo and other like cereal beverages being sold, but feel that if such beverages were to be allowed il would lead to real beer. being put in like bottles and sold by dealers.
 As a matter of fact real beer oi the home brew variety is being pro miscuously made and sold now If Bevo and the like were permitted the present opinion is that the home brewers would discontinue. At any rate the proposed law merely pro- vides for non-alcoholic drinks made by former brewing companies to be gold in the state provided every bot tic sold is required to stand a state tax of 1 cent or more. Governor kil- by thinks this would bring a tre- mendous revenue to the state and in his call has recommended the pas sage of such law. The suspicious prohibition element is arrayed for fight against it.
 All other states except Alabama are open to the sale of these cereal beverages. The legislature will de- eide whether Alabama is to stana alone in the enforcement of such an absurd law.
