ENROLMENT NOW
 NEARS2,OOO MARK
Percentage of Increase Great CT Than Ever Before.
 Class Work Begins

University, September s.-with a steady stream of students still ar irving. the University of Alabama has already passed all enrolment figures of past years and indications are that nearly 1000 students will have entered before the end of the week. Not only does the attendance this year exceed that of all past years but the percentage of increase Is greater. For the past several years the attendance has increased at the rate of 10 per cent a year, but this year 1t win be much higher. At this time last September the enrollmeAN was less than 1,700 students.
 Work of registering the students Is proceeding rapidly in spite of the congested conditions and arrange ments have been made for housing all of the Nudents who enter. Extra dormitory space has been provided and student members of the Y. M. c. A. and Y. W. c. A. are assisting the new students in finding loca- tions.
 An interesting feature of the en- rollment this year is the unusually large number of advanced students who have transferred to the Unl- versity of Alabama from other schools. Many of them are grad uates of institutions in other states who have come here for postgrad- uate work in special courses.
 Class work was started Wednes- day, but the students are still ar irving and 1t will be impossible to give definite figures on the enroll ment before the end of the week.

CLARKE ID PLAY
 PART IN POLITICS
Former Associate Justice Ex- pected to Become Leader in
 Democratic Circles
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau. The Age-Herald.
 kaO nuvf,ianr, Rufldinn

oOU DHNiubon butiulnks
 Washington. September s.-(Spe- cisl.) .)-John H. Clarke, former asso- ciate justice of the supreme court, who recently resigned and was suc- cOeded by George Sutherland of Utah. Is expected to play s prominent part in the politics of the United States.
 Early next year he will make a trip around the world. It Is antie- ipated that he will make known hIs purposes prior to the democratic con vention in 1924.
 He Is a resident of Ohio, and Is re- garded as an idealist of the Wood TOW Wilson type. He ardently es- pouses the League of Nations, and gave as one of his reasons for leav- ing the supreme court desire. in freedom, to work for closer rela- tionship between this country ana the countries of Europe.
 Would Cancel Debt
 Mir. Clarke would like to see the United States cancel the debts owed 1t by England and France. He takes the position that by so doing, com mercial chaos would be cleared up, and all nations made relatively sub stantial in matters of finance. Also, it Is his opinion that the money lent Europe by the United States repre- Sented solely another contribution by the United States to the general effort to win the war against Ger many.
 Early this year. MT. Clarke de- livered an address In Cleveland in which he expressed his opinion. It was about the time that William H. Taft, chief justice of the supreme court, said something regarding the necessity of so amending the Vol stead act that all the people of the country might not be in fact viola tors of the law.
 Immediately, criticism ot the two justices became outspoken in Con gross. Senator Harris of Georgia, in reference to Clarke, declared that in his opinion. a justice of the court should not express opinions relative to debatable and controversial topics, The prohibitionists in Congress, who, until the statement of Taft, were firmly convinced that the people gen orally were observing their liquor laws to the letter, proceeded m D1t- terness 10 express their opinion of the chief Justice.
 Now Free to Speak
 It Is believed that the criticisAl l of Clarke by members of Congres < inspired him to resign the bench. It Is believed that he recognized the impropriety of justice freely dis- cussing matters on which there were sharp differences of opinion. | Clarke, 1t is indicated, was so full of ideas relating to live, world is- sues, that he found 1t necessary to speak. and to act. and therefore, it Is said. that he felt impelled to re- sign.
 The former justice is regarded as an exceedingly able man. There is no doubt expressed In Washington by best informed mon that within an other year Clarke will have become ono of the well known citizens of the country.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-09-09

Commenting upon his attitude yes- terday afternoon MT. Ramsay said
 T have been thinking for some time that l woudld like to increase my gift to Auburn, but l believe only in helping those who help them- selves. Therefore I have made the additional amount contingent upon the reaching the ssoo,0o0 goal
 T am sure the men of Auburn know the interest I feel in the in- stitution, but I made 1t very plain that I felt that the needs of the school required the raising of the full amount sought. If my offer will stimulate other men interested In the school I shall feel very crate full and only too happy to do my part"
 While the Auburn campaign has quieted down somewhat because of the hot weather and because sc many people were out of town, they expect to get busy in earnest in the near future. Those in charge of the drive have the greatest confidence in their ultimate success and they feel that the Ramsay offer will be an inspiration to renewed endeavor that will soon enable Auburn to score another Touchdown"
