NO RELIEF IN SIGHT FROM THE HEAT WAVE.
 STORM IS BREWING

Another scorching hot day had Birniingham sweltering yesterday, and at ? o'clock yesterday after noon E. c. Horton, local weather observer, wiped his glasses, and with a gasp saw that the mer- cury was registering 02 degrees in the shade.
 At 2,3O o'clock the mercury was still going strong, and again at 8 o'clock the weather man collect- ed his nerve and looked again and saw that he had lost all con- troI of his instruments. 1t was then registering 93 degrees.
 Only twice during months of May in the records of the weather department has this mark been surpassed. In May of 1898 there was n 90 degree mark. Hut the big record was established in 1902, when a temperature of 05 degrees was reached. This record was tied again in 1911 and 1016.
 s"The worst part of 1t fs," says the weather man, ''is that there seems to he no relief in sight. We muy have a thundershOwer today hut there seems to he no inclina- ton of any let-up in the heat for the next AS hours at least"

GENERAL APATHY IS
 SHOWN IN EFFORT ID AID UNEMPLO
Colonel Smith Makes Report on Status of Citizens Relief Commlttee-LittIe Inter-
 est Shown by People

Efforts to relieve alleged suffering among unemployed in the district will not be undertaken by the citizens committee headed by Col. T. O. Smith at the present time. Apathy of people generally was ascribed as the cause for discontinuing work of the committee now.
 This plan of procedure was decided upon yesterday afternoon at d meet ing held in the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce, at which Col onel Smith presided. Sixteen persons were present at the meeting, including three newspaper reporters.
 The report of Colonel Smith. as chairman of the committee, was ac- cepted and ordered filed upon motion of Oscar Wells. The same resolution provided for holding the committee in tact with authority to act when popular demand called for relief work.
 Exaggeration of facts before
 the investigation and survey by
 Red Cross workers was scored by
 MT. Wells, who declared that the
 lack of interest displayed by the
 citizens of Birmingham would
 not be so pronounced possibly
 had the situation been painted in
 true colors.
 CONCRETE STATEMENT
 A concrete statement of the case is necessary. Colonel Smith declared, with people knowing just what is ex- pected of them and what will be done with money and supplies obtained through any appeal or drive.
 This idea was indorsed by pr. J. E.. Dillard. pastor of the Southside Bap- tist church, who asserted that mem bers of his congregation would take care of starving children, he felt con- fident, if they only knew how great the need was, and where it existed. Dr. Morris Newfield urged ac- ton to relieve existing suffering. He took issue with the reports recommendation for joint work by
 the Red Cross and Salvation Army in homes, one to handle children
 under five years of age and the
 other to tnke care of older chill dren and women. It was explained that this pertained to homes where food of coarse variety was to be had, but food suitable for young sslsiiSrep was lacking.
 SITUATION DISCUSSED CCaer4 qho discussed the situation were De Walter S. Brown of the city reiisf aRG correction department; W. Adseas brigadien; L. M. Simonson

doesn't care about the factors. He
is interested, first, last and always,
in the quality as it is delivered to
him. So, without wealth of tech
nical information, the motorist
measures gasoline quality by: one,
and what is after all the final, de-
Gliding test, namely ly-its behavior
in his motor.
Gasoline must be good not in one
respect but in all respects. To make
it seem better, even to an expert,
without really being better, is not
an improvement. Our present prod
uct is really better from every
standpoint-so much so that you
will quickly notice the difference.
1t has never been thepractice of this
company to claim economies and
technical merits for its products
which the average motorist could
not prove for himself. Give ''Stand-

all we ask you to do. We are con-
fident that, purely on the basis ofits
performance and economy, you will
