LEGION POST PUTS
 BAN ON POLITICS
Majority Promptly Ruled Subject Out of Order at i,
 the Last Meeting

An attempt to inject city politics into the ranks of the local post of the American Legion was effectually sQuelched at the last meeting, mem bers of the organization say.
 After the usual business had been disposed of a member attempted to get before the post some form of criticism of the action of Adjutant Bob Chambers for the publication of an article attempting to refute the charge of the League of Women vot- CTS that 500 boarding houses. in Bir- mingham Hive on vice alone"
 This was construed by the mem bership of smacking of politics. and Post Commander George Lewis Bailes promptly ruled the member notice then appealed to the house to overrule the decision of the chair, and upon the vote being taken the chair was sustained by an over- whelming majority, and all discus sion of the subject was ruled out.
 Ever since Adjutant Chambers made his reply to the League sof Women Voters, efforts have been made to inject discussion of vice conditions into proceedings of the legion. the members say The local post has always been a non-politl- cal organization, and steadfastly holds to it's declared policy of es- chewing politics from it's delibera- tions.
 The next regular monthly meeting of the post will be held october Ia at its new meeting place, corner Fourth avenue and Twentieth street over Gilchrist's drug store. entrance on Fourth avenue.

TAX COMMISSION
 RESTRAINED FROM
 FAIR COLLECTIONS
Attorney General. Had Author ized County Collector to Call for State and
 County Taxes

An injunction was Issued about 3 o'clock yesterday morning by judge Dan A. Greene in the circuit court en- joining and restraining the Alabama state tax commission and its chair man, John s. Mooring; c. S Finch, license collector for Jefferson county; George w, Courson. his deputy, and Sheriff JIG. Hartsheld from arrestlng or forcing R. A. Brown, president of the Alabama State Fair association and all parties engaged In operating concessions at the State Fair to pay a state and county license for such operations.
 All of the respondents named in the till were also restrained from inter fcring with the operation of the con- sessions during the remainder of the tune the complainant had advertised the fair open to the public.
 Sunrise Petition
 Petition for the injunction was filed ty Horace Afford, attorney Tor Mir. Brown, following attempts of MT. Courson, deputy license collector. to collect state and county license fees Friday evening from persons operat- ing concessions at the State Fair. Mir Brown immediately obtained an attorney, had the petition prepared and got Hunter Armstrong. register in chancery, and Judge Greene out of bed in order to have the writ of in- junction issued. It was signed about o'clock yesterday morning, 1t IS stated.
 
 Thought Not Liable
 According to the allegations of the petition, the concessions and shows on the property of the fair associa- tion. which Is an organization of the state of Alabama, were not liable for the state and county license fees. However, MT, Finch stated that in attempting to collect the fees he was acting on instructions given him by officials of the state tax commission in Montgomery Friday. According to Mir. Finch he was instructed to col lect the tax. as under an opinion of the attorney general the concession owners are liable for tax.
 This case will probably be fought out in the courts in order to settle the question, 1t Is stated.

Following terrific fiurries of wind and dust clouds, the 1ull before the storm will come tomorrow when those inclined to exercise their suffrage, including thousands of women who have never voted in n municipal elec- tiUn, will march to the polls at 55 places in Greater Birmingham and register their choice for 2 president and four associates to form the hoard of city commissioners who will hold office for the next four years.
 Unless the dope is completely up- set, the storm proper will break for the candidates with chances to Oc- cupy city hall offices after the first Monday in November on October 15. the date set for n .run-off. which is certain for some and possibly for all places on the commission.
 Regardless of the turn events may take, results tomorrow will mark the demise of at least. two competitors for the presidency and 14 aspirants for the places of Messrs. Taylor, Hornady, Burruss and Brown, All these gentlemen with the exception Of MT. Burruss are asking to be re- tained in their present offices.
 Bitterness Is Unusual
 | Unusual bitterness has marked a most unique and peculiar contest for municipal office. Personalities of unpleasant nature have been over whelming in their ascendency, With members of the commission now in office bearing the brunt of the as- sault. =.
 For the first time In the history of the city, women have sought office as municipal executives. This fact has added colorful touch to a cam paign devoid of any Fundamental is- sues, although many furious but futile attempts have been made to raise them. g
 One feature of the race has been the largest field ever seeking office in this city under commission form of government. Four years ago. when religious issues were injected. there were three candidates for the presidency and 15 men seeking places as associate commissioners. Out, ot this number the president and two as-

ENF FORCEMENT OF
 NEW MILK CODE
 |SSAT|SF FACTORY
Thirty-five Diaries to Receive Permits-DoWIing Praises Dairymen of District
 for Progress

Thirty-fiye dairies of the Birming- ham district, out of an estimated total of 135, will receive permits within the next few days to sell milk within the city limits under the pro- visions of the milk code adopted by the city commission to become ef- fective August 25, Dr. J. D. Dowl- ing, health officer, announced yes terday. Seventy-nine dairies out of the total have made application for permits.
 Conditions existing prior to the ef- fective date of the code found 59 per cent of all samples of milk examined during d three-year period showing evidence of adulteration by adding water or skimming and in many cases chalk or other foreign sub stances were present, Dr. Bowling declared.
 A statement issued by Dr. Dowiing yesterday on the milk situation fol- lows:
 Receive Cooperation
 satisfactory progress is being made toward the enforcement of the new milk code and we are receiving the heartiest cooperation at the hands of dairymen. The conditions of the code have been applied to S5 dairies out of 70 which have made application and with only two or three exceptions they were found qualified in every respect and will receive permits within the next few days.
 When found lacking in any re- spect additional time has been all lowed within which to make required improvements. Othereapuplicants are being taken up and scores and tests being made as rapidly as possible.
 Already tremendous improve ment has been made in the quality of the milk supplied to Che city in re- sponse to the campaign for better milk which was inaugurated nearly three years ago and the progress made reflects commendable credit up- or the dairymen of the district
 Bacterial Count
 The average bacterial count of milk for the three years prior to the time when the new milk ordi- mace was proposed was 795,000 as compared with an average of 77.000 since the milk code became operative on August 25, 1921.
 This, we consider, remarkable showing particularly in extreme summer weather. While under the milk code at the present time, the bacterial limit is still 500,000, 65 per cent of all counts made since August 26, are below 5o.00O, which is the ul- innate bacterial standard which be comes effective one year hence.
 The records show that 53 per cent of all samples analysed during the three year period before the milk code was written showed abso lute evidence of adulteration either by adding water or skimming and in many cases chalk and other for eign substances were found. Since August 20, this year. not a single sample has been found below stan dard in butterfat and no added water has been found"
