America is conceded to be a most powerful nation. The world is today looking to America for advice, for moral support and for material aid. Shall it be said by the rest of the world that with all of Americas $ boasted progress, prosperity and strength, the nation is impotent to prevent organized violation of its laws and corruption of public officials for profit?
 Those who are entrusted with en- forcement of the dry laws should make bootlegging and the bribery of their own forces the most hazardous business in this country. When this is done, the citizen who realizes tlat the nations progress and pros eerity, and the protection of life and property depend mainly upon the nations en- forcement of it's laws, will have reason to rejoice in the return to more rational attitude towards law and order. f

RESPECT FOR LAW INCREASES

To the great majority of the Ameri- can people who believe in observance of law it is interesting to note that Prohibition Commissioner Haynes is optimistic because he finds an increas- ing respect for the dry laws and sees steady progress in their enforcement. The two conditions are very closely associated. The better enforcement there is of any law the greater re- spect it will compand. One reason why there is not more respect for the prohibition laws is that they have not been we'll enforced. That is the direct fault of enforcement officials. They can compel respect for the dry laws. Enforcement of these laws is the key note of their success.
 During the coming year very wholesome example could be furnished this country by rigid law enforcement. Unsparing application of the law to every individual, group or syndicate in conspiracy to nullify the consttu- tion and Haunt the law for material profits would arouse public support of law and order all long the line.

PROGRESS IN ALI. LINES

With an increase of nearly two hundred million dollars in Birming- hams bank clearings for 1923 over the previous years record, and a gain of more than eight and half million dollars in incorporation investments for the year 1923 over the record of last year, this community is congratu- lated. Bank resources and bank clear ings are closely associated with and largely dependent on industrial and commercial progress. They move up or down together, and are more or less inter-dependent. Both are in the na- ture of barometer of business activi- ties and conditions. It is interesting to note the almost unbroken progress in financial and industrial fields of this district, not only during the last year, but year after year for long period.
 A gratifying feature in this connec- tion is the progress made in every field of constructive effort during the year. New enterprises have been not ably numerous, some of them on q large scale. There have been enlarge ments and improvements in many pro- jects. Building operations have been unusually active. Postal receipts show heavy increase. Paving within the city and road building outside the municipal limits have been extensive. Few cities in the South have shown so much industrial and commercial growth during the year. The record is a tribute to the progressive spirit of this community, and offers chal- lenge for even greater achievement during the coming year. The out look is reassuring. There is no cloud in the industrial sky. All the ele- ments and conditions for the attain ment of a high-water mark are at hand. Determination to make 1924 record-breaker in the whole field of development and prosperity is assured of success from the very start.

SHOULD AIM FOR HARMONY

(Andalusia Star)
 The Birmingham Age-Herald takes the Democratic executive committee severely to task for it's action in fixing December 31 as the time limit for candidates for congress to file notice of their candidacy. The Age-Herald takes the position and wisely we think, that with the new congress just convening and with no possibility of the people seeing their repre- sentatives in action on the matter of dealing with vital questions pending at the beginning of the new year. the placing of this early limit is in the interest not of the rank and file of the party, but in the interest of those who are in office. The best governed people are the people who are least gov erned. And the best party leader ship is that which goes with the people in their accustomed paths, not that which tries arbitrarily to use the position given by the party to play favorites to any one. Of course this action will in no sense affect matters in the Second dis trict. since it Is foregone con clusion that the new congressman from this district will be given the indorsement of second term unless something unforeseen should happen. But regardless of who may be affected by the action. our plea is that the party action should always be such as to invite corporation and not discord.

DEFEATING ALABAMA

The political statement of MT. L. B. Musgrove proves The Age-Herald' $ contention that the self-seeking SUD- porters of Mir. Underwood over reached themselves when they secured the passage of the undemocratic meas ure authorizing the successful candi- date to choose his own delegates to the national convention. Had it not been for this measure, is is highly probable that MT. Underwood would have enjoyed an earned, well-deserved and undivided support in his home state. As it is, there will be a con- test here that was unnecessary and that has been provoked by the failure of the official leaders of the party in this state to serve their party rather than their personal interests. Their acts have aroused uncalled for antago- nism to Alabama's distinguished sena- tor, and provided an opening ready made for his enemies.
 It Is especially unfortunate that the wet and dry issues should be injected into the campaign in this state. It is not believed that there can be any sincerity in advancing such an issue, for prohibition is now matter of law and is daily being more effectively enforced. No candidate of the caliRer fit to represent the choice of Alabama for the Democratic candidacy would seek to revive dead issue but would rather take the broadS. view that prohibition is an accomplished fact-- a part of the fundamental law of the land and to be upheld accordingly. MT. Underwood has explicitly de- clared himself as resolute to enforce the statutes interpretative of the Eighteenth Amendment, and there can be no plausible basis to the allegation that he would stoop to trade with those who would disregard these statutes, or any other statutes.
 Of the outcome of the contest in this state there is no reasonable doubt Alabama has only one candidate of the requisite stature, or of record sui ficiently outstanding to commend him to the attention of the nation or of the national convention. Mir. Musgrove and his supporters could have no hope of success in the national convention, even if the improbable should happen and he should be designated by Ala bama. Therefore, MT. Musgrove's candidacy resolves itself into an effort to defeat Alabama's hopes of winning the presidential nomination.

I LOVE HER, BUT
 SHE MUST SUFFER By Wfckes Wamboldt

A Seattle restaurant man put his wife in jail for eloping with his cashier. Her relatives be- sought leniency on his part, but though he wept copiously over the matter he stoutly and vehementiy maintained, "I love her, but she that she did suffer, too.
 Undoubtedly it did the woman good to suffer. Suffering is d thing that makes souls grow and characters broaden and deepen. But should this husband have es- tablished himself as a self-ap pointed avenger? Should he not have done that which was kind and which was merciful? Should he have insisted on the pound of flesh? He may have had just as great weaknesses as his wife, per haps in the same direction, but had never been caught.
 The Almighty gives us poig- nant illustrations of leniency right along in our daily lives Every man over forty, and who is not in the penitentiary, can thank the mercy of God for it, for most have deserved it in one way or another. Probably if every man were incarcerated who merited it. there would not be enough po- pie outside of jail to run the world.
 I am great believer in giving every fellow one more chance. l remember once a man committed crime against an institution with which l was connected. My men placed evidence in my hands that would have landed the fellow in the penitentiary. I carried that evidence In my pocket for three days and then destroyed it. The man deserved to go to jail, but l was not going to put him there. Perhaps I was wrong, but the powers that be mad shown me too many mercies for me not to pass them on.
 How many chances should a man have? It is a question. I do not know. If we forgive and help him up seventy times seven times we will not then have shown the same consideration that is shown us. Rightly, there is no human who is fit to pass judgment upon another. We all have flaws, or we would not be here. We are amazed at the weakness of a brother. while at the same time we possess a different weakness just as amazing to him.
 AnA T
 But we are immature souls and suffering develops us. But we still get enough of suffering in the normal course of things with out going out of our way to in- flict it on each other, even under the name of love.

CONSUMPTION OF
 SILVER SUPPLY
(Mining Congress Journal


 It is startling fact to know that notwithstanding the enor- nous increase of consumption in almost every other line, the use of silver for manufactures and the arts practically remained sta tionary. Were it not for the in- creased use of silver in photogra- phy, in particular relation to the moving picture business, the rec ords would show a very marked decrease in the amount of silver used for industrial purposes in the arts. In 1911, 32,013,6S5 ounces of silver were used in manufac- lures and the arts.
 r During the twelve. years. 1911 to 1922, inclusive, the average use of silver in manufactures and the arts was 31,922,514 ounces.
 Contrast this situation with the total annual volume of business in the United States. For purposes of general comparison it would doubtless be safe to say that this volume of business since 1911 has at least doubled. In this increased volume of business the consump- tion of other metals and minerals has increased more rapidly than other products. Silver alone of the metals used in industry and the arts has Jagged behind.
 In no other comparable line of production has consumption been at a practical standstill, and per- haps1 in no other line has there been so little effort to increase sales by stimulation of public in- terest, by advertising and through the higher arts of salesmanship. The difficulty has been that silver has been bought and not sold. Substitutes for sterling tableware have taken the place of sterling.

averted. We have degree of atone ment to make. The weapons called for are limited in amount and could comprise no menace against outside nations. We are not in the business of supplying armies with munitions, and we shall not engage in such busi- ness. But when we can lend essen- tial equipment to the internal forces of law and order, who is there that would justly accuse us of fostering warfare?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-12-31
------------------ -------------- ARMS TO MEXICO

The decision of our. government to sell limited quantity of arms and munitions to the Obregon government is not a departure from the principle laid down by President Harding in refusing to sell arms to Poland. In this statement Mir. Harding expressed the desire to "make sure that none of our surplus equipment is employed in encouraging warfare any place in the world" The munitions required by the Obregon government would not be employed in encouraging warfare, but in discouraging warfare. We have recognized the Obregon government, and we perceive that the present up- rising is not of popular nature, but is calculated to interrupt that serenity of relationship which we value as be- tween ourselves and Mexico. The is- sue is not warfare, but is between law on the one hand and lawlessness on the other. The effect of a well-armed federal army would be to promote peace and protect lives and property against violence. In short, the federal army is a guardian of the peace of Mexico, and the weapons they need would make for that end.
 We must not forget that in previous rebellions in Mexico those who have plotted against established govern ment and peace in Mexico have fre- quently done so unmolested under cover of the American flag. Had we sternly repressed such tendencies in tie past, it is possible that some of Mexico's turmoil would have been

Should Be Provided For

'
 If taxes come under the new revenue law as they are expected to do, there is going to be an ex- tra session of the legislature to- take care of the schools. Gov>l ernor Brandon had that to be un- derstood at his speech to the Xii swanis in Opelika and he pledged himself anew to help the public schools and higher institutions of learning. There will always be contention and controversy over the schools until they are pro- vided for amply by separate and distinct funds. It is not right that they should be dependent for sup port upon the condition of the state treasury at the beginning of each quadrennial period. It will all be changed after while.

MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY

Dreadful news IS coming through Frightful news from everywhere; Every morning something new Spreading terror or despair; Russia, Germany and Spain, Turkey, Italy and Greece Adding daily to the strain, Doing things to spoil our peace. Bolshevism riding high,
 Socialism gaining ground; Ministers compelled to fly,
 Premiers chased and kicked around Even England, slow to change, Slaps tradition on the wrist; Dangers that are new and strange Added daily to the list. Labor daring to demand
 Rights it never had before; Hardly any foreign land
 Has allurements any more; Lords compelled to turn to trade, Princes out of jobs and sad; All the bankers much afraid Things are going to be bad. Dreadful tidings from abroad, Proud old classes pushed aside, Workers who have titled the sod Cease to crawl, and want to ride Everything has gone amiss,
 Frightful news comes every day; How shall Europe, after this, Charm our millionaires away?

An Aged Sinner
(Everybody's Magazine)

tENefyDOuy MaSaZlne)
 Brother Johnson had labored through long, perspiring evening to convince his colored congrega- tion of the dreadful fate of those who remain unsaved.
 He concluded, And the wick ed shall be cast into outer darkness, there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth"
 Old Sam Jackson rose from his seat demanding: What about me, MT. Johnson? I ain't got no teeth.'
 Leaning far over the pulpit and shaking a long, bony forefinger at the aged sinner, Brother Johnson saids tensely: "Never you mind, MT. Jackson! Never you mind :! Teeth will be provided"
