The new project begged the Roman
Pontin at the time Of his appointment
to permit him to spend alternate months
at the Vatican library in order that he
might spend the intervening months with
his aged mother In Milan. The Pope
granted the request and was heard later
in his life TO remark that Cardinal Ratti
did more remarkable work in his alter,

predecessors had done in continuous
service.
As Vatican librarian, Cardinal Ratti

work and it was there that he won him

Cardinals The new pontiff was beloved
for his retiring disposition, sparkling
wit. athletic prowess and the general ar

Three-Da Session Embraces Lectures, Post Graduate Courses and Free Clinic

Featuring addresses from many
 of the foremost dentists of the
 United States, and free clinic
 work conducted by these distin-
 guished visitors, and prominent
 local and state specialists, the
 Alabama Dental association will
 convene in three-day session
 this morning at the Tutwiler ho-
 tel with upwards of 400 mem-
 bers of the profession from over
 the state present.

 The regular dental association will convene each morning at 9:S0 on the ballroom floor of the Tutwiler, with pr. F. F. Perry of Montgomery, pres- ident of the association, presiding. Chair and table clinics will be con ducted from 2:30 un,n 4:So o'clock eacn afternoon, with business ses- Sioiis pC6iiilhS dt O CLOCK Tn the evening.
 Eminent Specialists
 Dr. Fred F. Mott, Chicago; pr. w. T. Waves. Minneapolis, and Dr. L. I. Furnas of Cleveland arrived yesterday afternoon, to attend the convention and conduct the post graduate work. These distinguished visitors are recognized as three of the foremost authorities in dental surgery in America, and their work at the Montgomery convention last year was considered so instructive that they were invited to return to the Birmingham convention this sea- son. V
 POst-Graduate Work
 Throughout the past week, more than 50 dentists from over the state have been taking post graduate work in oral surgery, photographic inter- pretations, surgical preparation of oral tissues for artificial dentures crown, bridge, inlay and technique and dental construction, which has been conducted by recognized spe- cialists in their respective lines, as a fore-runner of the coming conven- tion.
 Local Study Group
 Local dentists have been forming study groups during the past six months to better prepare themselves for the training at the convention, and. it is understood that this move ment will be continued so as to de- velop a still higher degree of spe- cialties in the dental profession in Birmingham and throughout Ala bama.

 Tfckled to Death
 The old-timers are tickled to death at the way it is going. They declare that their attitude does not show re- actionary principles, but, on the con- trary, that the manner in which they have participated in the referendum demonstrates their alert citizenship. And one said: Who ought to know more about it that those who have lived both under commission and aldermanic governments?"
 The Age-Herald had not intended to stretch the referendum over the week, but the ballots have continued coming in with such showing of evil rdence of spirited interest and in such numbers that. in justice to the stim- ulus to community exercise that 1t has promoted. it felt compelled to continue 1t few more days.

J|TNEY OPERATORS
 MAY INCREASE FARE|

If the jitney ordinance is passed in its present form operators on the Glen Iris line will abolish their five cent tickets and will put the seven cent cash fare into effect in all cases, according to statement made at city hall yesterday by A. B. Langley of the, Ford Transfer company.
 Langley stated that it was imprac- tical to require jitney service in rota- tion and that limitation of passengers could not be effected with success by the jitney men.
 "The Glen Iris jitneys haul over 10000 people every day and I think that not a single person has ever been seriously injured on this line" said Mir. Langley. By buying tickets patrons are able to save two cents each trip and the majority of the pat rons purchase them.
 "If the number of passengers are limited to four the straight fare of, seven cents will be put into effect to make things break even.
 "The people on the Glen Iris line are satisfied and they are willing to let matters continue as they have been. If 1t suits the people the city commissioners should not interefere."

I schedule applying on the Southern and auxiliaries in the prescribed ter. ritory.
 Applying at the office of the Bir- mingham Traffic bureau for state ment of the new and old rates. the following schedule was given. ! Old rates on minimum horse and mule car shipment (those still apply ing on movepent on roads other than | the Southern and auxiliarles). IA cents per hundred pounds. which would be l BPS for a minimum car of 10000 pounds.
 New rate Capplying on Southern and auxiliaries only), 321h cents per l 100 pounds, making freight on a mini mum car of horses and mules to Flu Jaw come to $65.
 Large Increase
 The increase is over 100 per cent. It was pointed out that had the man at this end shipping the horses and mules on April routed by the Louis vile and Nashville to Tuscaloosa, the shipper would have gotten the old rate to Tuscaloosa, which. in connec- ton with the new rate to Eutaw, would have made a freight bill of $41. and the Butaw man would have saved over $50.
 Bunn Will Appeal Speaking of the new rates estab- lished on the roads named by the de- cislon of the interstate commerce commission, o. L.. Bum, manager of the traffic bureau, said; q am now preparing a brief to the interstate commerce commission in which I con- tend and will be able to show that the rates established in the Meridian rate decision are approximately higher than In the rest of the country. That Is about the only action left open to us."
 Charles F. Jones, secretary of the traffic bureau, said that not all rates were higher under the Meridian rate decision. For instance hollow tile, stoves and canned meats got lower rate.
 Hope of eventual relief hangs on the investigation now being Conduct ed by the interstate commerce com mission of the entire fabric of rates in southern territory with a view to establishing a base both for intra- state and interstate traffic. In the es- tablishment of this base the southern traffic managers will be on the alert with data showing what the base should be- Mir. Jones Is chairman of one of the committees of the Southern Traffic league, which recently met Tn Atlanta to take preliminary steps to- ward this end.
 Two Sets of Rates
 Meanwhile the anomaly exists of one set of rates on the Southern and auxiliary lines in t5ne territory 100 miles from Meridian and another set of rates on the other roads like the Louisville and Nashville. Frisco. Cen tral of Georgia and the others. Where the Southern and these other roads make the same points these points have choice of rates according to road over which they ship.
 Look for Adjustments
 The order of the interstate com merce commission was that rates from Meridian to points in Alabama 100 miles distant should not be great CT than the rates within that territory from point to point. Under this de- cision rates from Meridian could be adjusted, 1t Is claimed by shippers, to the Alabama rates. It is deemed not improbable by shippers that some ad justments will be made.

 than the new rates applying to the
 Southern and its allied roads under
 the decision in the Meridian case. Already the difference is felt. For example a stock farmer at Eutaw, on the Alabama Great Southern. writes The Age Herald, saying that he Is re- quired to pay S75.75 on a minimum
 car of horses and mules from Bir- mingham to Eutaw shipped on April 6 as against $3O50, the rate on April 5. All the satisfaction can get from the railroad people Is that the Inter- state commerce commission ordered the rate"

Birmingham voters, men and wom- en, continue to raise their voice for a friend in the city hall"
 They say they want representative government in Birmingham. They declare for aldermen from each ward so that when a fellow goes to the city hall he will feel that his ward has as much standing there as any other mans ward.
 Men voting for the aldermanic form of government in The Age-Herald referendum have suggested sundry changes in the features of that gov ernment as Birmingham once had it, but the demand for representation by wards seems the fundamental and unchangeable reflection of the run away vote cast for mayor and alder man plan.
 In the 1,031 votes tabulated up to last night the result was as follows:
 For commission .............. 20
 For manager ............... 233
 For mayor and aldermen. ...S5S
