A member of the committee admitted that provision was in- serted whiyh gave the tax commis- sion and employees the right to passes over railroads.

Recommendation that Sergt. ;. E, Richards of the Ensley police force be reduced to the rank of patrolman was the verdict of the civil service board of the police department fol lowing the hearing of the case Fri day night. Sergeant Richards was on trial for alleged inhuman treat ment to prisoners, the complaint be- ing that he forced R. JJ. Tate of Ensley to remain in jail. without bond while Tate was suffering with broken arm. Tate broke his arm after arrest by Ensley officers as he was attempting to run away.

Tate testified that he called two doctors, they being Dr. Harris and Dr. Clements, city physicians. Tes- timony of the doctors zorro oborated him in this, also in the fact that the break in the arm was of such a ma ture that it took an N-ray to deter mine whether the arm was broken, Tate is former, Birmingham police officer, having four years of service here and in Fairfield

MORE FUNDS FOR HIGH AND NORMAL SCHOOLS SOUGHT
Wilkins Bill Would Triple Ap- prOpriation To The High
 Schools
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU
 THE AGE-HERALD Mant Hnuaarx AIo I..l.- Q.

Conditional appropriations to county high schools would be tripled by the passage of bill introduced in the house today by Mrs. J. G. Wilkins, representative from Dallas.
 The present law provides that the state may appropriate s1,000 to a county high school, conditional upon 1t being matched with a like amount by the county. The bill introduced seeks a total conditional appropria ton for such institutions of $201, ,000, which would, if there were a county high school in each county, give each such school s3,000 upon being matched by the county.
 The bill provides smaller increase in the regular annual appropriation to county high schools, the present sum being s3,000 per school, while q total of S210,000 is provided in the bill.
 More For NOrmals.
 Another bill by Mrs. Wilkins ap- propriates $10.00o to each of the nor mal schools at Florence, Jacksonville, Livingston, Troy and Montgomery, the latter a school for negro teach CTS, to be used for summer quar- ters" for those schools. The normal school appreciation carries 8 pro- vision that 1t shall be discontinued when the 4 mill tax fund becomes available.
 An increase in appropriation for the erection, repair and equipment of school buildings Is sought in another measure. The present appropriation is s221,00e, while the bill seeks S5,600 per county, or s375,200.
 Other appropriation bills for edu- cational purposes introduced by Mrs. Wilkins provided for the following: s25,000 for adult illiteracy work; s3O, 900 for blanks, records and other forms, bulletins, manuals, etc, which the state department of education is authoriZed to supply to the counties. and for stationery and postage for the state department, and to ap- propriate S32,305.56 for vocational re- hambilitation of persons disabled in industry.
 Another bill by Mrs. Wilkins would change the name of the educational revolving fund to "equalizing" fund.

CITATIONS ARE BROKEN OFF WHEN DEMAND REFUSED
Each Side Is Bitter Over Others Refusal To Con-
 cede On Recognition

ATLANTIC CITY. July 27-The anthracite conference broke up late Friday, leaving the country to face coal strike September 1.
 The break came when operators re- fused to concede complete recogni- ton of the United Mine workers of America as a condition for further negotiations.
 This motion was adopted and the conference broke up.
 Only one difference marks Me present controversy from that of last year, which ended In strike. There is the faint possibility that the fed eral coal commission, organized since the 1922 trouble. might ask the miners and operators to confer in formally with them in an effort to devise a method for ending the pres ent deadlock,
 The status is now the same as 1t was preceding and during the five months strike in the hard coal fields last year-namely the sub-scale committee is in existence, but not functioning. The way was left open to reconvene the committee at the request of either side. There is little hope that either the miners or oper- ators will yield sufficiently 10 make such a request.
 Formal PoIiteness.
 The formal politeness of the last session was an indication of the open hostility between the view points of the two contending forces. When the meeting opened the miners were asked if they still insisted on com plete recognition.
 John L, Lewis, president of the mine workers, said they did.
 $. D. Warriner, operator-spokes- man, then read a carefully prepared statement denying the chief demands of the men and concluding with an offer to submit all matters at issue to arbitration" Ignoring this offer Lewis laid down flat ultimatum that unless recognition was given at once there was no use in prolonging the negotiations.
 When he finished, Thomas J. Ken nedy. president of District No. z, moved for adjournment sine die. This action took the operators by sur prise, and they went into a caucus. On returning to the conference room, W. J. Richards, for the opera tors, moved as a substitute that the committee adjourn subject to call of Secretary James A. German, at be- hest of either party.
 Both Sides Bitter.
 Warriner and Lewis each expressed bitterness at the failure of the other to concede an inch on the Il de- mands of the miners presented when the conference started month ago. Warriner. in an effort to clear the operators of blame, pointed to the refusal of the miners to join them in q no strike" pledge even if the negotiations were not terminated at the expiration of the present anthra- cite contract August 31.
 The miners declared the operators at fault in declining to give official recognition to the closed shop" con- dition already existent in the hard coal fields
 All of MT. Mariners properties are in District No. r." said Kennedy, And there Is not q non-union miner in the district
 Lewis made 1t plain \the miners would stand firm for recognition.
 All the other demands are sub ordinate to this" he said

Nation Faces Another Hard Coal Strike As AtZantic Cy
BURGLARS LOOT SAFE, BUT $500 LEFT UNTOUCHED

GOODWATER, Ala. July 27.- Special. .)-Burglars entered the home of John C. Kelley, a promi- nent farmer, in the eastern part of this county. in the absence of the family, and broke open an iron safe and carried away ST00. After breaking the safe, the draw CTS were taken to the woods nearby where the loot was appar- ently divided. In their rush the robbers overlooked $500 in another package in the safe.
 It appears that the house had been watched for day or two by the outlaws from signs in the woods near the home and where the papers and drawers of the safe were found. Dogs were called into use but the trail was lost. No clues so far to the robbery.
