 A feature of the bill being prepared by Solicitor Tate is the making of an exception to the stealing of auto mobiles so far as concerns the op- eration of the juvenile law. The present statutes provided that youths charged with crimes of this kind be turned over to the juvenile court. MT. Tate stated that many of the most dangerous gangs of automobile thieves had been composed of young boys who know they will not be sent to the penitentiary even though they are caught.

For the past month the plant has been operating alternate weeks, but it is stated that it was found consistent to work this week at least. This sched- ule is indicative of further better ment in industrial conditions.
 The information was very gladly received generally and was the oc- casion for much favorable comment.
 The steel plant, bi-product division. and the Fairfield works are continu- ing as for the past several weeks.

MOTOR CAR TOUR
 A REAL VACATION
Henry Donaldson Gives Im- pressionS of Tour Through
 Several States

Birmingham people contemplating vacation trips will do we'll to do their travelling in car. according to Henry. Donaldson of the R. B. Broyles Furniture company, who, with Mrs. Donaldson and their two children, Frances and Billie, have just returned from trip through Tennessee, Kentucky and Ohio in their car.
 The roads of Alabama and Ten nessee are in very good condition, MT. Donaldson says, and the roads of Ohio arc splendid. The Kentucky roads are rather poor. He was par ticularly impressed with the paved highway from Springfield to Colum- bus, O., which is wide enough the en- tire 60 miles for three cars to pass abreast.
 Travelled 1,671 Miles
 We travelled in all exactly 1671 miles, according to the spec iometer on our car" said MT. Donaldson, tand made the entire trip without a pune ture and without repairs of any kind was pleased to come back into Bir- mingham with the same air in my tire I had when We left.
 We went from Birmingham to Warrior. then via Cullman, Decatur and Athens to Pulaski, Tenn. From Pulaski, we went to Nashville. Bow ling Green, Mammoth Cave, Louis- ville, Lexington and Cincinnati. From Cincinnati, we went over the Red ding road to Xenia, O., where we vis- ited Mrs. Donaldson's sister Mrs. J. c. Almon.
 I believe the most interesting fea- lures of the trip were the day we spent at the Great Onyx cave which we went through, and the other lay we spent at Dayton, O., where we in spected the National Cash Register company They were particularly courteous to us when they found we were from Alabama, and furnished a special guide to take us over the plant
 Seeing Territory
 like travelling in car fine. We had an opportunity of seeing all the territory over which We passed, and met number of other people who were travelling
 Crop conditions all through the country seem to be good, and I was surprised to see such beautiful crops on the hillsides. Farmsrs all through Ohio are busy with the wheat crop.
 All the business men I met seemed to believe conditions will improve a great deal this fall, and said business IS already improving. Conditions. however. were no better than they are here. and their problem is very much the same as ours

AT THE GRAND.

James Whitcomb Riley's classic of American boyhood, ''The Old Swim min Hole," which has been adapted for the screen with Charles Ray in the role of Ezra, was written in 1887 and has run through a record num- Der of issues both in its original lan- guage and through transllations into the languages of many foreign coun- tries.
 Riley was born in Greenfield, Indi- ana, in 1853. His writings, chiefly in the for moi contributions to news papers and magazines, first began to attract attention about 1875. These apeared over the pen name "B. F. Johnson, of Boone"
 In remarkable degree this author possessed the gift of playing upon the human heart strings With magic touch and the quality that makes his verse ring true. Among his best remembered writings in addition to "The Old Swimmin' Hole" are After Whiles," Green Fields and Running Brook" "An Old Sweetheart of Mine"

PROTECTING THE PUBLIC
II ~ II

The state regularity commission in
Missouri and Oklahoma have taken NUM-
cipaly owned electric utilities to task, in
sisting that they, as well as privately
owned plants, set aside annually reserve
for depreciation and amortization until
such funds shall be sufficient to protect
municipalities against ultimate loss when
it becomes necessary in the interest of
progress and economy to dismantle the
plants and in the interest of the public
make them parts of super systems.
The Missouri commissions decision
was in reply the contention of persons
favoring municipal ownership, who claim
that depreciation reserve fund was an
unnescessarp expense. The commission
pointed out that no other business would
attempt to operate without making such
provision and that in many instances
municipality owned utilities which fail to
make such charge are frequently able
to show surplus, when as matter of
fact they are merely binding the public
to financial situation which sooner or
later will cause the community much
trouble.
The Missourians and Oklahomans are
right. Business is business, and no mat
ter what kind of stockholders they are
they shoould be protected
Here is some work for our Utah COM
mission. 1t should be done now
