SUNDAY SCHOOL j., 7slI
No~' RALLY A SUCCESS

By putting on a big boost for at
tendance, the five churches Of Lib.
eral reported a total enrolment fol
last Sunday Of 1870. This is fine
showing for Liberal, shows that a
large number of people are inter-
ested in this work, and yet this
might have been much better. Thir-
teen hundred people is a small per
cent of people to attend church serv-
ices on the Sabbath. We should have
much larger numbers than this in
attendance.
A go-to-church day is being plan
ned for Sunday, October 22nd. Ev-
cry person of Liberal should make it
a point now to prepare to attend
some church on that day. 1t will be
boost for yourself, your town and
the churches of the town. We have
fine churches here, which are real
civic pride. They have a fine group
of preachers, who are real men, both
in the pulpit and out. If we have the
right interest of the town, let's go
to church.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH

At 9:45-the Sunday School hour
At II a. M, the morning service
will be an every member communion
service. We would like as far as
possible for every member to report
for the communion service. AS this
service takes the entire hour, there
will be no morning sermon.
At $3.50 the Epworth League serv-
ice will be led by Rachel Hart. The
service will be of special interest for
all young people.
At 1880, the evening worship hour.
The pastor will preach. Subject of
the sermon, "They say" Many peo-
pie lose Christian life and do many
things because "they say" But God
does not always approve of what
"they say"
You will be welcome all day.

This plant has plenty of orders and its warehouses arc packed with manufactured goods which 1t cannot ship to It's customers on account of the railroad strike.
 The Louisville and Nashville road is the only railroad that is making any pretense of running freight trains in this section. and it is kept busy day and night. The Southern from Rome hauls a little freight and runs only caboose and one passen ger coach in its regular passenger service.

WHITE CASE UP ID
 ATTORNEY GENERAL
Legal Department to Rule on Public Service Commission
 Controversy
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau, The Age-H Herald, 221-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery. August 14.-(Spe- cial. 1.-The attorney generals de- partment will determine whether or not contract executed by A. c. Patterson. president of the public service commission, and Hugh White for the employment of Mir. White as secretary of the >ommis- sion for one year is legal and bind ing. If 1t Is MT. White will retain his position for one year from Janu- ary 1, 1922, despite the action of B. H. Cooper and $. F. Gaillard, asso- ciate commissioners, in summarily dismissing him Saturday.
 It became known today that the legal question had been submitted to the legal department and that an opinion may be expected during the next few days. Until the opin- ion is rendered it Is not probable that there will be any developments in the controversy which started with the publication of a statement by Governor Kilby based on infor- nation furnished by MT. Whito aLd M w. Aldridge during the closing days of the campaign. The gover- nor charged that MT. Whites stats- ment showed activities on the part of the Alabama Power company in the interest of the reelection of MT. Cooper and Mir. Gaiilard.
 By formal resolution Saturday the associate commissioners dismissed Mir. White. holding that he had been guilty of disloyalty to them.
 MT. Patterson issued statement defending MT. White and Governor Kilby announced that MT. White would be protected.
 Mir. White did not attempt to ex- ercise any duties of the office Mon day. He left Monday afternoon for a stay of few days at Gadsden.

TRAINS RESUME SITUATION ON
 FRISCO CLEARED
Inbound Trains From Amory and Memphis AnnuIled, But Trains Leave Birming-
 ham on Time

Passenger and freight traffic, ex- cept inbound trains, was proceeding at a normal rate yesterday on the Frisco lines, following the tie-up of traffic on that road which resulted from the walk-out of trainmen Sat surday afternoon as a protest against guards being stationed in the yards.
 Officials of the Frisco stated that all inbound trains from Memphis and Amory, Miss, were annulled at other ends of the lines. in order that an equalization of the motive power might be gained, as trains and other rolling stock had been amassed in Birmingham, due to the strike of the trainmen Saturday All four trains scheduled to move out of Birming- ham yesterday departed on time. Train No. 105. fast passenger from Kansas City, due to arrive here at 3:30 p. m., was delayed six hours, due to motive trouble, it was stated.
 Congestion Clearing Up
 Congestion of freight cars in both the Frisco and Illinois Central yards, caused by the strike, was rapidly being cleared up yesterday, and normalcy in railroad circles, with the exception of the striking shop crafts, has returned, according to of ficials in charge.
 Mail matter at local points north of Birmingham on the Frisco lines is congested to a large extent, but will be cleared up with the resump- tion of local passenger trains to be dispatched to Birmingham from Amory and Memphis today. All local and through mail matter that has been congested in Birmingham, yesterday, although railroad post masters were given double duty in distributing the mails. Baggage agents were also extremely busy from the double shipments.
 The Frisco yards have been clear ed of the guards, formerly stationed at advantageous points. they hay ing been scattered out through the terminal and given a certain dis- tance, which they are to patrol regu- larly in place of standing in one place.
 Col. W. E. Bare, in charge of the local militia, declared yesterday afternoon that there has not been any guards stationed in the Frisco yards. this rumor being floated when he, accompanied by Major Baldwin, a few of the soldiers and Sheriff J. c.

Colonel Bare stated that he did not antici- pate stationing any soldiers at the frlsco yards unless fresh trouble preaks out, which will threaten the destruction of railroad propertv or harm to railroad employees. He also wished to impress upon the people of Birmingham that "the troops arc here for the purp- of protecting lives and property, whether 1t he that of railroads. strikers or strike breakers"

PEACE PROSPECTS IN HARD COAL AREA
 APPEAR BRIGHTER
Negotiations to End Strike to Be Resumed in Philadelphia Wednesday--Both Sides
 Are Optimistic
By Associated Press

Philadelphia, August 14.-Pros- poets of peace in the anthracite coal mines of Pennsylvania appeared brighter tonight than at any time since the suspension became effec- tive on April 1, rendering idle ap- proximately 165,000 men.
 Negotiations between the opera tors and representatives of the miners broken off June IA when the mine owners arbitration proposal was rejected, will be resumed in this city Wednesday, and the concilia- tory tone of messages between Sam uel D. Warriner, head of the opera tors negotiating committee. and John l.. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, arranging the conference was said by those in close touch with the situation to presage. an early settlement of the difficulties.
 We are most optimistic" said MT. Warriner. that there will be a friendly discussion and speedy set dement,
 In his message, inviting the miners chief to reopen the negotiations, MT. Warriner said that the hard coal op- erators were willing to resume op- erations at the old wage scale, pend- ing the appointment of a commission n or other agency to investigate the situation, as suggested by President Harding. The President declared that further delay in the resumption of mining would mean danger of d nation-w wide disaster.
 Lewis Optimistic
 Mir. Lewis in accepting MT. War riners invitation, said the miners representatives would approach the meeting in spirit satisfactory to the public, the operators and the miners and that the broad premise" on which the invitation was based augurs well for the success of the conference"
 Should Mir. Lewis be unable, be- cause of the parleys between opera ; tors and miners in the bituminous fields, to attend the conference here, It was stated that he probably would place the anthracite situation in the hands of three district presidents of the union and Phillips Murray. fn- ternational vice president. MT. Mur- ray directed most of the conferences between the hard coal operators and miners following the suspension.
 Among the mine workers 19 de- mands in the negotiations for a neyy wage scale was an increase in pay of ~ Der cent. The operators insisted that they accept a reduction. but iihaiiy agreed to e-ih-t.r the ouestioa to arbitration by commission an pointed by President Harding
