NUMBER OF HOUSES r OR RENT GROWS
Activity In Bungalow Class Throws Older Houses
 on the Market

.Yes. 1t is true that there are more houses for rent at this time than there were last year or this spring, said William r. Johnson. vice presi- dent of the Messer-J Johnson Real Es- tate company.
 In some cases the rent has been reduced and in others 1t has remained the same. In particular ] notice there are numbers of large houses for rent Householders have taken to the small sized bungalow, thus throwing some of the larger ones on the rental list
 "Undoubtedly Birmingham brisk building of new homes has had something to do with the new situa- ton. The new houses were built to live in and have served to an extent to relieve the acuteness of the situa- tion. However. there is not suffi- cient change yet on which to base any great expectations. If business continues to pick up as 1t has done and we escape the railroad strike, there will probably not be many h6uses for rent.
 "Neither is there very much of what might be termed first class property being offered for rent. There is no surplus choice residences or apart ments.
 summarized. there are more resi- dences for rent than there have been, but the change is not of a pronounced character, and present conditions might not last long,"

GRANT REFERRING IN GRAHAM CASE Girls Father Alleges Custody of Child Has Been
 Transferred

Petition of R. J. Graham seeking the custody of his 10-year old daugh- ter, Bertha Graham, from J. H. Gra- ham, and his wife, uncle and aunt of the girl, will be heard in the chan cery division of the circuit court, Sep tember 26 before Judge Hugh A.. Locke.
 At a former hearing of the case the custody of the child was awarded to MT. and Mrs. J. H. Graham by the court. Judge Locke granted the father a rehearing in this case sew eral days ago following the filing of a formal application for rehearing by James Esda1e, attorney for MT Graham.
 An amendment to the original pe- tition was filed in the chancery di- vision of the court yesterday in which MT. Graham charges that Mrs. Laura Graham, wife of the girls uncle, to whom she was awarded several months ago, is not fit and proper person to have the care and custody of the girl. It is alleged that the her home and of those associated herewith are not fit and proper in which to rear young girl.
 The petition charges that they de- sired the custody of the girl in order to eventually turn her over to A Speaker, her grandfather. which they did following the decree awarding the custody of the child to them.
 The father filed habeas corpus pro- ceedings several months ago against MT. Speaker, who he alleged enticet Bertha away for the purpose of rear ing her in the Catholic church, to which Graham announced himself as being opposed. MT. Speaker denied these allegations, stating that the gir came to him for protection because she wis ill treated at home. Follow ing this hearing Judge Locke awarded the custody of the child tc Mir and Mrs. J. H. Graham.
