For Greenwich Village Art

county court yesterday, denied the ap-
rlication Of Mrs. Marie Engel for 335
week alimony and $3.50 counsel fees
pending the outcome Of her action for
a separation from her husband, Karl
Engel.
Engel admitted that he abandoned
bis wife on October "a of this year

married life Mrs. Engel has steadily
refused to have children, also that she
has false ideas because of Greenwich
Village life.
After hearing the evidence on the
motion for counsel fees and alimony
Justice Mitchell said:
II do not consider this to be a case
In which alimony or counsel fees
should be granted"
Mrs. Engel in her affidavit accuses
her husband of abusing and cruelty
treating" her for q considerable time
and finally deserving her in October OF
this year.
Engei, in his answering affidavit, in
part said: my wife has false ideas
concerning the value of the so-called
Bohemian or Greenwich Village life.
She has recently made the acquaint.
ance of women who dabble in art and
who put false ideas into her head"
Engel says he still loves his wife
end that he stands ready to forgive
and forget and start life anew any
time si1a was ready to demean herself

Coal may we'll be described as pre-

WALKER REPLIES ID
 WILLIAMS ABOUT
 HOWARD'S AFT AIRS
Relates Some of the Incidents Leading Up to Differences
 at the Institution

James Walker of East Lake yester- day made formal reply to the recent statement of pr. c. B. Williams, re- tiring president of Howard college. re- garding affairs at that institution. MT Walker claims the colleges affairs had impaired his usefulness to the institu- ton. His statement reads:
 "The citizens of East Lake and friends of Howard college have avoided any publicity in regard to the unfor- tunate conditions at the college. But ments and charges that 1t becomes my duty to give some of the facts.
 'Dr. Williams claims that the origi- nal cause of all the trouble Is the ef- fort to move the college, but this Is at variance with the facts. Before he the friends of the college realized that the wrong man had been made presi- dent. The chief grounds for this real ization need not be mentioned here. for it is becoming generally known throughout the state. If I and the "cer- tain citizen of East Lake" who declared that I would see that the president was removed instead of the college, l accept the compliment. As to advising any student of the college, to be dis obedient to the authorities. l deny the accusation. No man who knows my life will charge that I ever stood for anything but loyalty everywhere.
 "I knew nothing of the gravity Of conditions at the college until about two months ago, when one morning at chapel exercises Dr. Williams was hissed out of chapel by a large number of the student body, from which time he has not entered the chapel again. Seventy eight per cent of the students had lost respect for him, which was shown by their signing a petition making serious charges against pr. williams, and appealing to the board of trustees for his removal He can not charge that I had hand in this, for I knew nothing of it until it was signed by the students. When I was in- formed of the contents of this peti- ton I told the boys that it was too radical and advised that 1t be amend ed; and I understand some changes were made.
 "The senior class, realizing the ex- treme conditions at the college, called a meeting of said class, and passed a resolution appealing to the board of trustees for an immediate investiga- ton, pledging their cooperation in bringing about an adjustment. The meeting was called, the investigation was made; but Dr. Williams did not tell you In his article the result of this investigation.
 Since the meetings of the board were executive I must refrain from giving out the proceedings, but the members of the board are scattered over the state and those who desire ta know the facts can, no Sdoubt, ob- tain them from their local member. As to the success of his administration,

 MAKING FRIENDS
Business and Professional Women lndorse Campaign
 to Raise $3O,000

Business and professional women of Alabama, through Mrs. H. E. Pearce, president of the state organization, which includes clubs in all the cities and large towns of the state, have thrown their support to the campaign to raise sS0,000 for the Alabama School of Trades and Industries.
 In a letter to Senator Watt T. Brown chairman of the board of con trol of the institution, yesterday Mrs. Pearce not only pledged the co-opera- ton of the state organization In rais- the method of raising the amount by dollar subscriptions. She enclosed her check for $5, which included s1 for each member of her family, also the cook.
 Added impetus has been given the movement to raise the funds needed to secure the state appropriation by the fact that the Exchange club of Birmingham has agreed to take over the campaign. A state conference of representatives of the Exchange clubs from Anniston, Montgomery, Florence and Montg emery will be held here w GQncSQdy al WHICH tiiC AhaltCA wa be presented and the cooperation oi the state organization will be asked by Leon c. Bradley, representing the local club.
 With the Exchange clubs of Alaba- ma in charge of the campaign ane half a dozen state organizations ac' lively assisting, 1t is believed that the necessary money will be secured.
 The letter from Mrs. Pearce follows
 we, the business and professions women of Alabama wish you and youl board of trustees to knoY that w' are in sympathy and accord with vol In the movement to get the Alabama School of Trades and Industries start ed at Ragland, and wish to extend tS you our full co-operation. The motto suggested by Congressman Oliver, T' give the white boys chance. Is good one.
 "Also, the method adopted to rais' necessary money by dollar contribu tions, Is an admirable one, so in be half of the Business and Professiona Women's clubs of Alabama, I wish tt say that we appreciate the opportunity to cooperate in this splendid under taking.
