USE COURTS IN
CAMPAIGN FOR
LAW ANDORDER
Birmingham Acts to
Suppress Grim
ina[s.
BY G. W. GRAHAM

Consolidated Press Correspondent.
Copyright, 1922. by The Argus.)
Birmingham, Ala, Sept. s. - A
campaign for law and order, initi-
ated here, is expected to set an ex-
ample that will be followed by all
communities in the United States
+. in which the lawless element has
defied the constitutional enforce
ment officials. In some respects it
is a revival OF the old time vigi-
lante spirit. There is, however,
this material difference, that those
sponsoring and participating in the
movement will work through the
regular authorities and courts. To
this extent, at least, it is an answer
/ to certain so-called "Ku-klux
methods where the members oper-
ate in secrecy and behind masked
faces.
Number of major offenses COM
mitted in Jefferson county, of which
Birmingham is the county seat,
have brought it the unenviable dis
tinction of ranking second in the
criminal record Of the country.
This announcement appalled, the
leading residents of the city and
for the last three weeks they have
been comforting in secret regard
ing ways and means to compel re-
gpect for the law. Today an ap-
peal to the public was issued by
Colonel Thomas A, Smith, local
banker who had been elected
chairman of the committee:
1.-THE time has come for the law
abiding citizenship Of Birmingham
to voice its outraged protest at
conditions which prevail. Jeffer-
son county now ranks second
among all counties in America for
major crimes. The situation is
critical. 1t is in fact analogous to
that which prevailed when we en-
tered the war. 1t calls for stern
measures, the united support Of law
abiding citizens and the determine
ton to bring about a change.
| = Stern Spirit.
with that sort of spirit and the
dedication OF our best efforts to
this cause Of good government,
your committee is not apprehen-
sive Of Birmingham's ability to put
a stop to crime in this district and
sound the death knell of the law
less element which is undermining
the security of our government and
its institutions"
The campaign contemplates an
extensive educational effort In be-
half Of law observance and active
cooperation with the law enforce
Iment machinery while at the same
time demand will be made to expe-
ldite the trials of all persons &C
tcuesd Of crime. Sunday next SER
mons appealing to all citizens to
support the movement will be
preached in the various city
lpulpits. In addition all of the 10
ical newspapers are actively assist

trising has followed an unprece-

CONSTANTINE is
SOON TO LEAVE
GREEK THRONE
Defeat of Forces in
Asia Minor Is
Cause.

Paris, Sept. S.-(By the Associ.
ated Press)-Rumors that Kins
Constantine of Greece intends to
abdicate are current in several Eu.
ropean capitals. They are consid-
cred here to have been given some
color by the. sudden recall of the
G r e k heir-apparent, Prince
George, to Athens, from Bucharest
King Constantine's abdication is
regarded here as an increased pos
sibility, particularly as it is consid-
cred the only method of getting
former Premier Venizelos, Greece's
wartime leader, to return to
Athens, form a coalition govern
ment, make an effort to restore or
der in Greek army circles, and re-
tain a part of Greece's lost pres
tige.
Smyrna, Asia Minor, Sept s.
(By the Associated Press
an eyewitness can realize the ex-
tent of the disaster to the Greek
army, which is termed by many as
one of the most decisive in smili-
tary history.
An army of 10000 men, we'll or
ganized and equipped, has been
transformed in less than two
weeks, into virtual band of refu-
gees.
An official Turkish statement
says 400 Greek officers and 10000
men have been captured since the
Offense was launched, together with
500 motor trucks, $50 guns and a
million rounds Of artillery ammu-
milton.
The Greek loss of morale is il
lustrated by the reported refusal
of battalion of reserves rushed
here from Athens, to disembark. A
contingent Of Senegalese, which ar
rived yeeerday on French trans
port also did not land owing, it is
said, to some disagreement. The
whole of Smyrna hinterland has
been ravaged by the Turks, and
refugees continued to pour into the
city by the thousands. A Turkish
airplane yesterday flew over the
town and dropped pamphlets an
nouncing the complete liberation
of Asia Minor.
The government archives have
been placed on shipboard for safe
ty and the Smyrna branches of the
National bank and the Bank OF
Athens, are closed.
Panic Prevails.
A state of panic prevails through
out Ionia, and the British high COM
missioner has telegraphed to Con-
stantinople asking that relief sun
plies be rushed here as it is feared
a grave food shortage would result
in disorder.
The foreign population is in trep.
idation lest the Greeks explode the
immense stores of ammunition In
the city to prevent them from fall.
