LEGAL STATUS OF PROPERTY SOUGHT
 ID BE CONDEMNED
Judge HundIey Attacks Right of City to Condemn Property for Auditorium Site.
 Commissioners to Talk

Condemnation proceedings instituted by the city seeking to condemn the pro- posed site for the auditorium on Eighth avenue and Twentieth street, north, were started yesterday before Judge J. F. Stiles of the probate court. Taking of testimony will begin tomorrow morning al 9:30 o'clock, the case having been passed yesterday until that date.
 Constitutionality of the statues under which the city seeks to condemn the site was attacked by the defendants yester- day. It was agreed by counsel for the various defendants that decision on legal questions raised in the proceedings against the property of Judge Oscar R. Hundley will be allowed to determine the status of law regarding the property of other defendants.
 Judge Hundley attacked the constitu- tionality of the statutes under which the proceedings were brought on the grounds that the purpose of the acts Is not clear ly expressed in the title in that because they provide for the issuance Of bonds for the erection of an auditorium, but that the title does not include the right to condemn contained in the statutes themselves.
 He stated he was in favor of the audi torium and did not wish to be placed in the position of opposing it and he would contribute to the building of it, but did not think he should be forced to sell his property for less than he had been of ty, orlyof Cow
 That money for the erection of an au- dtorium could only be raised from the sale of bonds specifically voted for that purpose at par was also raised and the defendant offered to show that the bonds voted for that purpose by the people were sold below par by the city com mission on a monthly basis and com mission had been allowed for their sale. Judge Stiles sustained objections by the city to answering interrogatories rela- tive to whether par was received by the city for the bonds, on what authority the commission contracted to sell the bonds on a monthly basis and for what price the bonds were actually sold. The court held that these matters were not material to the issues involved.
 It was contended by Judge Hundley that the sale of the bonds below par on monthly basis rendered their sale illegal, and Ii they had not been neSo- tiated legally, they have not been issued at all. and the city is therefore not en- titled to condemn the property because of the failure to comply with the law.
 Authority of the city to sell it's bonds below par was given by the act of 1909 of the legislature, according to City At torney Fred G. Moore, and that section 15 of the Acts of 1915 gives the city the right to condemn property for any pub lie use and the Act of 1909 authorized the city to issue bonds for the erection of an auditorium and other public buildings. In answer to a question, he stated that the building would be used purely as an auditorium building and not for courts, offices or other administrative offices of the municipal government.

ALL REPUBLICANS |NFEDERAL OFFICE
 IS PARTY'S SLOGAN
Street and Long Back From Washington, Made No Rec ommendationS-No Dem- ocratS Will Get Any
 Places

Federal patronage in Alabama will be dispensed by the regular repub- lican organization with Pope M. Long as state chairman and o. D. Street as national committeeman.
 Republicans seeking appointments should make their applications in due form to these two men at once. accord ing to Chairman Long who with MT. Street returned from Washington yes terday.
 NO BI-PARTTSANS
 MT. Street and have just returned from a weeks visit to Washington, said MT. Long. "The purpose of our visit was not to make any recommen- dations as to appointments in th's state, but only to ascertain the gen eral situation and the policies that are to control as t, certain matters. De- spite unauthoritized press reports. we have not made any recommendations as to any office and really have not in any case decided whom we will recom- mend. It is our purpose first to give careful consideration to the applica- . tions and inducements of all.
 About the first thing one is inn pressed with is that this is to be republican administration, and not a half-bre The administration and party leaders feel that on the republi- can party rests the responsibility of success or failure and that those should be in charge who have the party's success at heart.
 '"rhe second matter upon which the testimony is unanimous is that state n alters will be handled through the state organizat tion speaking through the national committeeman and state chairman, they being responsible to the administration and to their own people No satra. will be set up to lord it over those whose voluntary support they cannot command.
 NO CONTESTS
 'tThe third thing, which interested us, is that the republican organization in Alabama is highly esteemed by the republican national leaders because of the fact that last year not a contest before the national committee went up from this state, and that Alabama h-s nearly qu..drupled her republican vote in recent years.
 "The time has now arrived for ali applicants for appointments in this state who wish the indorsement of Mr Street and myself to get their appli- cations and inducements in shape and submit them to us, It is our desire in every instance to do what is best for the party.
 This does not apply to application for postoffice appointments because no announcement has been made by the administration as to whether or not postoffices shall remain under the civil service.
 We called on the President and de- spite the ordeal of his many burdens, he seemed to be in robust health and to be enjoying life.
 Tt is my prediction that he will be one of the most popular Presidents that this country has known.
 Did we have an enjoyable trip? The best ever It is well WI rth any per sons while to journey 1000 iles to again see a republican President in the White House."
