 Victory came for the supporters of the measure after a bitter fight had been made.

The bill provides that every attor- ney in Alabama shall be a member of the Alabama Bar association and shall pay a license of So year, which will be used in carrying out the plans developed by the bill. Licenses will be issued by a board named by the bar association and trials of at- torneys charged with committing of lenses which are opposed to the ethics of the profession will be held before the board provided for by the bill. At present licenses are issued by the supreme court on request Of the board of law examiners and dis barment proceedings are tried in the court.
