Dr. c. B. Glenn, assistant super intendent of Birmingham public schools, who is slated for the posi- tion left vacant by the death of pr. John II. Phillips, will saf1 for the United States today, according to a cablegram received from him yes- terday by w. J. Rushton, president of the board of education.
 Dr, Glenn's cablegram, which was dated at London. expressed his re- eret and sorrow at the death of Dr. Phillips.
 MT. Rush.on stated that the board had taken no action as yet on sue cessor to Dr. Phillips. It is taken for granted. however, that pr. Glenn will receive promotion as matter of course. Dr. Charles Brown, princi- pay of Central High school, will be rendered the position of assistant superintendent, it is believed. How ever, Dr. Brown is expected to refuse the new position, preferring to re- main at the head of Central High, which will be named John Herbert Phillips High school when the new structure is completed.

 Belgium

Wade Van Orman, pilot and Will liam Seiberling, aide, will be sn charge Of the free balloon "City Of Akron" which will be one of tive American contestants for the James Gordon Bennett international balloon race trophy at Brussels. Belgium. September IS, according to Associated Press dispatches yesterday from Ak ron, Ohio.
 Seiberling and Van Orman manned the balloon when it finished third in the national balloon race which start ed from Birmingham. May 21. They plan to sail for Europe August 25.
 Ralph Upson, who was in charge of the Birmingham Semi Centen- nial," will probably be the other con- testant. Epson won the race, landing near Stuart, Va, travelling some 400 miles farther than any other con- testant
 Several efforts have been made to have Upson represent Birmingham in thei international contest, but the difficulty of raising funds precludes this, 1t is believed. It is estimated the cost of sending the balloon to Belgium would approximate s2,5oO.

NO EXTRA WARDENS FOR COUNTY JAIL
Board of Revenue Holds More Men Will Cost
 Too Much

Petition of the wardens of the county jail for an eight hour day was denied by the board of revenue of Jefferson county yesterday at It's meeting.
 The action of the board was based on the statement that the sheriffs department is now exceeding the monthly budget assigned to it.
 The installation of the new sys- tenn would necessitate the employ ment of two additional men at salary of s125 per month each, 1t was pointed out and the treasurer would refused to pay the warrants for the increased expense.
 The wardens filed the petition sew eral days ago asking that they be given an eight-hour day for the same pay they are now getting for F hours stating that 12 hours is too long for efficient work, especially when the men have to spend two hours day going to, and from work.
 Sheriff J. c. IIartsfield, in letter to the board yesterday. stated the change would call for the employ ment of two additional wardens a- salary of s125 a month He rec commended that the eight hour day be granted.

Wallace, Jr., who spoke at the Civitan luncheon at the Southern club.
 Mr. Wallace is head of the state department of conservation. He made plea for the conservation of forests of Alabama, stating that the present supply of long-leaf pine would be ex- hausted within a decade unless prompt measures to prolong the sup ply were taken through conservative methods of cutting timber. State aid as a method to encourage forest con servation until the timber reached maturity was suggested as one way to solve the problem.
 Civilians were asked to take no more than they needed when they i. Eere' hunting or fishing. Mir. Wal lace declared that birds are the best friends of mankind and should be \ protected as such.
 MT. Wallace paid tribute to several members of the Civitan club. He xtyled Dr. c. w. Shropshire, founder the organization, real benefactor of men. Jelks Cabaniss, the presi- dent, should be elected to the legis- lature and made speaker of the house. he stated. This declaration was received with prolonged applause and cheers. He recalled the time when he had stumped the state with Sid Bowie, and praised E. B. Irwin because he came from north Alabama, the section of his nativity also.

GUT BIRMINGHAM FROM LOW RATES
 LIST OF CITIES
Railroads Hauling From Pa cific Coast, It Appears, Eliminate Magic City on
 Long List of Cities

Reduced rates on commodities from the Pacific coast to eastern points, which transcontinental roads have announced, do not, it appears, apply to Birmingham and other southeastern points.
 The Birmingham traffic bureau has written a letter calling that discrep- ancy to the attention of officials of the Southern at Atlanta, the Frisco at St. Louis, the Louisville and Nash vile at Louisville. and the Illinois Central at Memphis.
 Reduced Rates
 The letter says that reduced rates have been granted from Pacific coast to Louisville, New Orleans and Mem- phis and defined territories on and north of the Ohio river and on and west of the Mississippi, but not to Birmingham and other southeastern points. Some of the reduced rates are; salmon, 95 cents; drisd fruits in boxes, $1.25; rice, s1; canned goods. $105; beans, dried s1.05; condensed milk, 1.05; apples, s1.50.
 Not Applied Here
 The traffice bureau understands that these reduced rates do not ap-, ply to Birmingham on accout of the inability of the transcontinental and southeastern carriers to agree on divisions of the rates.
 Delay in having the lower rates to Birmingham and this section Is a wangle held all the more peculiar in the light of the growing business be- ing done on commitments from the Pacific coast to Birmingham and other points by way of the Warrior river.
