 Flag Is There
 In the center of the table, as a fit- ting background. will repose a huge Confederate flag, for whose defense this famous old "war horse" fought four long years and who proudly yet declares:
 T do not agree with those who say it was a fine thing that the south was beaten. Had we won, 1 believe we would have had the happiest, freest and most powerful nation in the world. The resources of the solid south were and are unlimited, and they would have helped us to main tain that sort of government"
 General Inzer has held literally more than a score of the most promi- nent offices Alabama has had to give her sons. having been in the legisla- ture more than once, and senator rep resenting the three counties of St. Clair, Walker and Jefferson.
 Pictures Banquet
 General Inzer paints a vivid picture of the Jeff Davis secession congress banquet when, in order to show the north that we had 'manufactories' that would serve, the women appeared in homespun dresses and the men in gray jeans made on home looms.
 "I never saw so much enthusiasm as on the night after Alabama had voted to join the solid south," said the white-haired, yet youthful statesman. When the people heard it. they did everything to make a noise. Torchlights were all over the streets of Montgomery"

UNREPAIRED STREETS
 WILL NEED REPAVINC

Because there is not sufficient money to repair the paved streets of Birmingham many will in few years have to be repaved, according to a statement of A. J. Hawkins, city engineer, yesterday.
 Many of the streets are in need of repairs, he stated, but as the appro- priation for repairs is only S25.00O, it will be impossible to do the work that is necessary to put them in first class condition.
 These streets will be left as they are. he said, and in a few years it will be necessary to repave them.

Ofhcial announcement made to the
stockholders of the Philadelphia Elec-
trio Company at the annual meeting to-
day that It was the intention OF. the
management at the next meeting or the
Board Of Directors to place the common
stock on an 8 per cent per annum was
the most interesting ness development
Of the day. This threw some light on the
recent activity and strength of the
stock.
The annual report showed a net in.
!OO, ,2jS in 1920. After deducting pre-.
ferred and common dividends and set
ting aside reserves, the surplus carried
to profit and loss was $077 ,5I7, as
against $811 $50. Conditions referred
to in the annual report were generally
known. and, as expected, the proposed
increase in the company's funded in
debtedncss was ratified by the meeting.
Neither the common or preferred stock
did much Indicating the events Of the
meeting had been largely discounted.
In the matter of movement, Electric
Storage Battery remained the stellar
attraction, making the usual daily rec
ord of registering new top at 176.
The new stock also did the same trick,
reaching 4415.

ferent Groups

New York. April 12.-Dealings in
today's stock market continued on an

and active. The only noticeable change.
which Is always an outstanding feature

shifting of activities from stocks that

others that have n long way to 90 be-.

n fresh impetus to the forward swing
was supplied by the further relaxation
of money rates. call loans easing from
conditions. however. was even more
forcibly exemplifed in the decision of
the Treasury Department to make the
new certificates Of Indebtedness Offering
at the rate of 81. per cent. This is
the lowest Offering put out since the
| latter part of 1917. Quite as impor
tant as n bulish factor were the pro .
posed tariff changes. which surely build
an almost insurmountable barrier
against cheap European goods.
The extraordinary activity was main :

there did not seem to be the slightest
!iminution of the bullish enthusiasm.

year. The small irregularities which
were registered in different parts of the

In better technical form.

advance in prices of refined products.
while the foreign oils. especially the
Mexican shares. were under persistent
pressure. Leadership later switched

For the office of commissioner OF the

has announced his candidacy and will
be the opponent Of Charles M. Palmer,
the present incumbent, who no doubt

The first one to file for a county
office was j. S. Hanson of Linden who
is candidate for the office Of sheriff
Vhe latest one to file is Alfred A.

AS compared with other counties,
Brown County has, up-to- date, been
politically very quiet but it is expected
