TRAFFIG CHANGES PLANNED BY GLOE
Conference With Utility Off, ficiaIs And Merchants To
 Be Urged To Board

Decided changes in traffic regula- tions for the business center of Bir- mingham will be suggested to the city commission at it's meeting Tues day by Commissioner W. B. Cloe. They will affect parking and the passage of vehicles through the heart of town.
 MT. Cloe stated Friday morning that he will also suggest that before the commission takes final steps. if changes are to be made, that the officials of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company and the merchants of the area affected be called into conference with the com mission.
 The four squares bounded by Nine teenth and Twentieth streets and Second and Third avenues, are those up for consideration. MT. Cloe be- lieves the best solution is the re- moval of all traffic from the streets and avenues named for that particu- lar area, including street cars, and turn it over in it's entirety to pedes- trians; secondly, the removal of the street cars and allowing automobiles to park in the middle of these streets, and if neither of these plans are de- sirable, they have cars park parallel to the curb with 8 parking limit of 40 minutes, and the car to be occupied while parked by a person who can drive it away if necessary in case of fire or other need for removal.
 Streets banked with automobiles as Is the case with the business section, MT. Cloe said, is a great handicap to the fire department when called to neighborhood where there Is much parking. The present method may be the cause of a conflagration in stead of small fire.
 MT. Cloe thinks the street car lines if removed from these streets and avenues would be of great benefit as the lines coming into the city could all circle the area in question, or nearby blocks, and open up traffic to a great extent without inconveni- encing anyone to any great extent.
 The commissioner stated these sug- gestions were principally to open the way for discussion to ways and means for relieving the present situation and that he would urge the commission to call the meeting of utility officials and merchants to thresh out the whole question with the city authorities.

SPEECHMAKING A BURDEN
President Should Be Spared Obliga-
 tion Of Personal Appeal

It is unquestionably a part, and an important part, of the Presidents duty tt' make known to his fellow citizens the aims for which he strives, the necessities which prompt his course, the reasons which inspire his policies. It is essential to the success of any administration that the great mass of the people shall have clear conception of the Pres ident's motives, 8 complete realiza tion of that which he has achieved and a keen perception of that which he seeks to obtain.
 But it should be a fundamental principle of patriotism that the Pres ident's fellow citizens should not ex- press or even countenance inSistent demands that he address their re- spective communities or gatherings for the qualification of those com munities or the satisfaction of local ambitions. In a word, the President should be left wholly free to deter mine when and where the best in terests of the country demand that he shall appear and speak. Those in- terests demand that he should be permitted complete freedom from the necessity of disappointing his fellow citizens by declining invitations to appear among them.
 So extensive are the families of the press. so thoroughly is the White House covered, to borrow a journalistic phrase, that there exists little or no necessity for the Pres ident to tour the country and ex- pound his views from public ros- trums; and only on those rare Ccca- sions when the existence of such a necessity appeals to him should the burden of leaving the national capi- tai to make public speeches-or even of attending and addressing conven- tions held in the capital-be imposed upon his strength.
 Occasions may arise, as was the case when MT. Harding determined to visit Alaska, when the President may decide of his own motion that it is his duty to visit some section of the United States. but even on such occasions he should be left free from importunities personally to ap- pear before and to address gather ings of his fellow citizens.
 The burdens of his office have be- cLme too great to permit the con tinuance of a custom which may in the past have afforded much pleas ure to both the President and his au- ditors. That custom should now give place to conservatism of the, Pres ident's physical welfare.-George B. Christian. Jr., in the Saturday Eve ming Post

Celebration In Birmingham Planned On Larger Scale
 Than Ever

Everything is in readiness for Tag Day Saturday, when the people of Birmingham will be asked to con- tribute to the expense of staging the great Armistice Day celebration on Monday, November 12, and the leaders hope in this way to collect all the money that will be needed. Young ladies will be posted on street cor ners and other places throughout the city, attended by a guard of honor one may fail to have an oppor- tunity to help out.
 Plans for Tag Day and other phases of the Armistice Day obser- vance were discussed by the central committee, headed by Dan B. Dimick as chairman, at the regular weekly luncheon meeting in Greenwood's S cafe Friday. Chairmen of the vari- ous general committees reported that progress was being made in every way, and leaders are optimistic re- garding the prospects for one of the most widely observed celebrations ever staged in Birmingham.
 It was announced by the chairman of the speakers committee that the original plan of having several speakers had been abandoned and that Congressman Lister Hill would make the only address of the day. MT. Hill has already accepted the in- vitation to be on hand and the com- n1ittee expressed great satisfaction in being able to insure his presence.

SOUNDS BIG, BUT IS IT?
One American Out Of Every Twelve
 Ahoxe Age Of lR On Payroll


 According to the figures published by the national conference board, one American out of every 12 above the age of 16 is on the public payroll. The total sum they receive from the tax payers is nearly 4 billion dollars year, which, we guess, is about one fifteenth of the whole national in- come.
 The board raises the question whether this does not show that our governmental agencies have over ex- tended themselves. The question is one which cannot be answered without further facts. We need to know not only what we spend on public serv- ice, but what we get for our money. Among these things we get are the whole public educational system, our highways and public buildings, civil and military protection. the main tenance of 670,000 pensioners and a vast miscellany of other services. Are we so sure that the other four teen-fifteenth of our national income are spent, on the whole, to better ad- vantage? Until we are, we had bet ter restrain our desire to be alarmed. New Republic.

COOLIDGE FINDS FAULT WITH LIQUOR TREATY
Dislikes Provision Allowing Liquor
 To Come In Sealed

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-President Coolidge is of the opinion that a pro- vision in the proposed liquor treaty with Great Britain permitting Brit ish ships to bring sealed liquor stores within the three mile limit would have the effect, merely, so far as do- nestle law is concerned, of abolish- ing the penalties now assessed through the Volstead act against for eign vessels bringing liquor into American territorial waters.
 So far as the question of such a provision conflicting with the con- stitution as interpreted by the su- preme court In the ship liquor cases is concerned, MT. Coolidge believes 1t would be in no more conflict than the exemption now given foreign ships in passing through the Panama canal.
