ALLEGED AUTO THIEF
 PLAYED DOUBLE ROLE

Frank McDougles who faces eight grand jury indictments on the charges of stealing, buying, receiv- ing or concealing stolen automobiles, was found guilty yesterday afternoon on the charge of receiving and con- cealing stolen property.
 There are seven other indictments against McDougle. In the case be- fore the jury yesterday, he was charged with the theft and selling of a car belonging to Marshal D. Hogan of Tuscaloosa.
 McDougle, who also goes under the alias of Johnson and Vincent, ap- peared in court on crutches. One leg has been amputated, but. according to the prosecutors, McDougle also has a peg leg and an artificial cork leg.
 Officers originally had difficulty ap- pretending McDougle, they say, due to the fact that he is alleged to have taken automobiles while wearing his cork leg and then selling them while wearing his peg leg or when upon crutches.
 The case in which he was convicted dates back to 1919. Indictments have been brought against him for the all legged stealing of automobiles from V. N. Meagher, Moore Handley Hard ware company, w. E. Manning, J. B. Turner, E. W. Mckinley. Thomas R. Walker. w. D. Brockman and Joe Dobbs.
 Trial on the other indictments have not been set. Assistant Prosecutor John Mccoy appeared for the state. The case was tried In Judge H. P. Heflin's court.

President D. c. Ball of the bo ard of revenue makes answer to the statement of former County Erpgi- neer s. R. Batson, in reference to the disposition of motor trucks, as follows:
 To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 While I do not understand the mo- tive that prompted the statement credited to Mir. s. R. Batson in an arr ticle published in your paper dated January g. 1922, in reference to the disposition of motor trucks. desire to correct same.
 In the first place, the board of rev enue has not, nor does it intend to dispose of the government trucks without the consent of the highway department
 When the matter was discussed ] asked Mr. Gwin if he knew the agree ment between the old board and the highway department when the trucks were received.
 He replied that he was not certain but did not think we could sell the trucks without their consent, and agreed to take the matter up with the state highway department. which was done the following morning, in the endeavor to arrange for the ex- charge of the government trucks for new equipment.
 Mir. Batson says we have IS trucks There might have been IS trucks as- signed to us, but up to the present time we have only received 12: so it seems that MT. Batson, according to the statement in your paper is as ignorant of the offering of the state highway department, of which he is a member, as he Is of the intentions of the board of revenue.

DISCRIMINATION VS.
 ALABAMA ALLEGED
Coal Operators Protest Re- duCed Rates From South-
 ern Illinois

Alabama coal operators will resist the attempt that is being made to establish reduced rates from south ern Illinois coal fields into the south and southwest, while reduction is not afforded Alabama coal to same points.
 When the case of the Missouri Pa cific railroad, asking reduced rates from southern Illinois coal fields into southern Arkansas, Louisiana and north Texas, comes up for hearing at 10 o'clock this morning in the fed eral building before an examiner of the interstate commerce commission, Alabama coal operators will be there to protest against an action which if unaccompanied by corresponding reductions in freight rates from Ala bama points, would they claim, dis criminate against Alabama coal going into Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana and in favor of southern Illinois coal.
 As the petition of the Missouri Pa cific stands. Alabama would be de- prived of all natural advantages of propinquity to these southern and southwestern fields in case it was granted, the Alabama operators claim.
 Prominent railroad men and legal talent are expected to attend the hearing today.
