GOVERNOR KILBY ID AWAIT RULING FROM WASHINGTON
Special Session Will Depend Upon Time Limit Extended By Federal Authority for
 Good Roads Money
By FRED II. GoRMLEY

Montgomery February 26.-(Spe- cia1.)-Two developments during the next 10 days are expected to have the greatest influence over Governor Kill by in determining whether there will be an extra session of the legislature for the submission again of the high way bond issue amendment, which has become imperative as a result of a final decision of the supreme court.
 First in importance will be the ex . pression of the federal bureau of pulp lie roads which is holding federal funds approximating $4000,000 for re- lease on road work in Alabama as soon as the state is able to match the fund dollar for dollar. The second will be the sincerity of the enthusiasm n fa- vor of the bond issue, which must be shown by the people during the next few days.
 Governor Kilby will not call another session of the Legislation because he desires it. This is one time when the governor has absolutely no legisla- tion which he considers of sufficient importance to warrant another meet ing of the lawmakers. If he calls one, it Is doubtful that he will suggest a single subject of Legislation, -xcept the resubmission of the bond amend ment and the soldiers and sailors poll tax amendment, the latter being af-. fected by the supreme courts decision in the bond case. and being defective in the same way.
 KELLER AT CAPITAL

Governor Kilby will not feel that he should put the state to the expense of an extra session of the legislature and an extra election on the amendment unless the expressions of the people are So well defined as to indicate the rat

 TIME CHANGED
 Governor Kilby realizes conditions have changed since the amendment was ratified February IS, 1920. Great depression has caused the people to change their own plans of expansion and development, and this probably has had some effect on the opinion of the electorate as to state development work. However, Governor Kilby and other state officials do not believe the change has been sufficient to defeat the bond issue. Eight persons voted for the amendment year ago to every one who voted against it, and it is hardly conceivable that four of every eight ><vho voted for the amend ment a year ago would vote agailst it now, especially since plans have been worked out for road construction in all sections of Alabama as soon as bond buyers were found.
 Governor kilby has received re- quests for an extra session from all sections of Alabama, but it is not cer- tain that these expressions represent the majority of the voters. Many res olutions were adopted as soon as the supreme court rendered it's first de-
 
 for the expression of the sentiment of the voters.
 SHORT SESSION
 Many members of the legislature have assured the governor, that they would be willing to come to Montgom- cry submit the two amendments and quit, refusing to consider any meas ures not included in the call. If a s-- would make this agreement, the ses- sion could be limited to 10 or 12 calen- dar days--and the expense would be negligible. If the session should run 14 calendar days and the total expense should be $15,o00, the cost would be less than four-tenths of 1 per cent oi the $4,000,O00 which would be saved to the state. This interest rate may be compared with 6 per cent, which many counties are now paying on warrants for road work.

j. T. Russell, at one time prom
inent merchant of Audubon but
now of Fort Dodge, where he is
manager of a department store,
and Mack Hubbard, a jeweler of
Fort Dodge received black hand
notes demanding money recently.
The first they ignored but when
they each received second they
called the sheriff who suggested
that they place the money at the
point designated in the letters.
The sheriff and assistants laid in
wait for the blackhanders and
when they arrived they were order
ed to throw up their hands.
They refused and opened fire up
on the officers which they returned.
One of the blackhandlers fell badly
wounded, the other escaped. The
wounded man, Stillion by name
proved to be a Fort Dodge man
who has been out of employment
for some time. He has a family.
He was shot through the abdomen
but may recover.
