GOLTRA BARGE CASE
 GOES TO OHIGH COURT
Government Seeks To Set Aside De-
 ciSiOn Of Lower Court

WASHINGTON. May 19.-The fed eral government brought to the su- preme court today it's fight to secure possession of the Mississippi barge line. leased to Edward F. Goltra of St. Louis. who the war department charges has sacrificed his contract by failure to operate the line. The high est court was asked to set aside the injunction granted by the federal courts in Missouri restraining Secre- tary Weeks from seizing the 19 barges and four towboats involved.
 In its petition the government as- serted that injunction suit brought by Goltra should not have been enter tained by the lower court because it was in effect a suit against the United States and could only be brought with the consent of the government.
 The fleet was constructed by the government at a cost of S3,S30, 900 for use during the war and had been in the possession of Goltra for about year when Secretary Weeks ordered It returned to the government.

ENSLEY BUREAU 1 THE AGE-HFRALD ! EnGlau Ala May 1o

The death of Kirk Mendenhall in the double tragedy on South Twen- tieth street was a great shock to his friends in Ensley. He was associated with w. R. Mcclure in business here for some time and was highly re- garded by large following of friends. MT. Mendelhall was rather proud of the fact that he never held but two jobs in his life, one of them being with a shoe store in Birming- ham and the other In Ensley. He was considered a very quiet, retiring young man and easily the star sales man of this city. in the opinion of his friends. Mir. Mendelhall lived near the Hunter Street Baptist church and attended services there. He is sur vived by little girl in addition to his wife and other relatives. The for mer employers of MT. Mendenhall speak highly and glowingly of the young man and express deep regret over his tragic and sudden death.
