NAVY D|R|G|BLE
TO AID DRIVE FOR
SALVATION ARMY

The navy dirigible, which will reach
Birmingham tomorrow morning in
fulfillment of the pledge of the navy
to fly for the entertainment of the
people of Birmingham, will mix pleas
ure with business by lending its aid
to the Salvation Army drive for
$4,000.
1t had already been arranged for the
big silver bag to fly over the city and
suturgs so that it would be visible to
the entire population of the district,
but its flights will be extended beyond
original plans so that it may drop SAL
walton Army circulars.
Announcement to this effect was
made last night by w. V. M. Robert
son, Jr.. chairman of the Salvation
Army drive. Mr.. Robertson, who is a
lieutenant in the reserves of the fly
ing corps of the navy will accompany
the pilot, Lieutenant Wyatt, as aide,
and personally drop these messages
from the sky.
Arrangement has been made for the
route of flight to include passage over
the business centers of each of the
leading suburbs of the city. The diri-
gible will hover over these centers
long enough to drop literature telling
of the work of the Salvation Army in
Birmingham and for megaphone to be
shouted down to the earth exhorting
the people of the city to unite in con-
tributing to the campaign.
Special messages in sealed envelopes
addressed to the chairman of the work
In the various sections of the city will
be dropped. Any person who picks up
the folders and presents them to the
chairman of that particular suburb
will be included among the special
workers assigned to the general can
vass.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Why Jitneys Get Business

To, the Editor of The Age-Herald:
The question of regulation Of the jit-
neys seems not to be one of regulation
for the benefit and security of the pub
lie, but rather one for the benefit of the
street railway company. The idea of
lettering the jitneys with laws to harass
and hamper them out of business cer-
tainly smacks of class legislation The
people have supinely allowed the rail-
roads, telephone companies and other
large interests to increase and maintain
wartime rates to the extent that trans
portation is the big item in all overhead
expense these days.
In return the public is getting a service
that would bankrupt any private bust
ness. To the average man this condition
is chargeable largely to the rank and
file of men and women that make up the
great body of workers for the corpora
lions. The men and women who give
the service that we pay the corpora
tions for seem to feel no personal interest
in whether they make or break their re-
spective companies. The greatest waste
of time and material is found with the
man who works for the company" In
the case of the street railway if mo-
torman fails to stop to pick up a passen-
ger, why it's only cents, but with such
failures with 800 motormen each hour
amounts to 1878 to the street railway
company per day.
Wednesday night the past week at
Sixth avenue and Twentieth street a
gentleman carrying a heavy grip, accom-
panied by two ladies, missed his car by
a scratch. He waited 20 minutes for the
next one, and despite his waving of /.
hands and yelling the motorman passed
him up and he had to either get a taxi
or wait another 20 minutes. This morn
ing as l came in town over the same
line a man came running out of his home
waving and yelling to the motorman. He
reached the rear end of the car just as
it reached the usual stopping place, but
the car went on. Now. jitney does not
do business that way. They will always
stop and take you on because they have
a real interest In getting your money
Let the motormen and conductors be as
eager for business as the jitneys, then
the jitneys will fade away.
