STEEL MILL HEADS VISIT FAIRF F|ELD
Official Party Spend Day On Inspection Tour Over
 Local Plant
FAIRFIELD BUREAU 1
 THE AGE-HERALD ! EnirfinId Ala Anu 1


 William P Palmer, president of the American Steel and Wire company, of Cleveland, and party of his officials and directors came to Fairfield Thursday morning on the regular yearly trip of inspection to the south ern plant. MT. Palmer and his as- sociates were met at the station by T. D. Temple, superintendent of the works and were brought to Fairfield early in the day.
 The officials did not make any for nal statement while here, 1t being in- dicated by MT. Palmer that the trip was similar to the kind that he has made here every year since the Fair field plant has been in operation. He did not have any announcement to make relatives to any additions to the Fairfield plant, which has been reported from time to time. It is rather believed in Fairfield that the wire plant will not be increased in It's capacity any time soon. The wire plant officials, all of whom keep in close touch with agricultural condi- tions as well as general business lines, were apparently optimistic and were interested in observing that in Fairfield many obvious material strides have been taken towards q larger and better city.
 Alter inspecting the Nlant
 
 with local officials, MT. Palmer went to Birmingham to pay his respects to George Gordan Crawford, president of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, with whom he is associated on many steel corporation committees.
 The official party includes MT. Palmer, J. F. Keefe, vice president and. traffic manager from Chicago; Frank Baachas. sales manager from Chicago; c. L. Miller, vice president and general superintendent from .Pittsburg; H. r. Barron, manager of the blast furnaces and steel mills in the Cleveland district; J. Waaldeck, manager of wire plants in the Cleve- land district; A. H. Gary auditor, and H. c. Baldwin, 8 director and traffic manager from Cleveland.
 The party left for the north over the Louisville and Nashville in a pri- vate car attached to the 9 o'clock train.

COMMUNITY CHEST
 USED IN 5O CITIES
Adams Explains Popularity Of Plan Under Which
 Charities Will Operate

Fifty American cities, comprising nearly one-tenth of the total popu- lation of the United States, are cper- ating under the Community Chest plan, Carson Adams, chairman of the campaign which will be launched in Birmingham December 8, told con- ference of workers Thursday after noon.
 "The community fund plan" said MT. Adams, lis considered by men and women who have given much thought to ways and means of car rying community responsibility for the unfortunate and needy, as the most practical plan yet evolved for meeting an ever present problem.
 Relieving IS it does participating charities from the necessity of money raising campaigns, 1t leaves their of ficers free to devote their whole time to relief and welfare work. Combin- saves the time of busy men and women who have answered many calls made on them to solicit for this charity aud that. It reaches every body. distributing the burden which the whole community must bear, upon each man and woman in it. Eliminating duplication of effort, 1t insures a more efficient administra- tion of the funds contributed by citi- zens to the support of needy insti- tutions.
 Splendid Work Done.
 The proposed beneficiary institu- tions in the Birmingham Community Chest campaign are all doing a splen- did work, each in its particular field. The majority of these institutions have been established in Birming- ham for many years. All of them have demonstrated their ability to meet the problems with which they deal. The personnel of the good men and women who head them is assur- ance to the donor that his money will be spent intelligently and where it will do the most good"
 Formation of the vast army of field workers, 5000 strong, which will take the field December on behalf of a fund of several hundred thousands for support of 30 or more charities next year, is progressing rapidly. The enthusiasm for the cam made the organization work easier than anticipated. Officers and di- rectors of the chest are fully awake to the realization. however, that they are asking for the biggest amount ever subscribed in single campaign In Birmingham's history, and are therefore doing everything possible to educate Birmingham to an under standing of the broad and construc- tive field of service to humanity which the chest fund will make pos sible.

AUTO LICENSE RUSH
 IS BEING ANTICIPATED
Average Of More Than 2,000 Ap- plicatiOns Must Be In Hand Soon

Less than 12,O00 automobile li- censes had been issued by the pro- bate office up to the close of business Thursday afternoon, with. only Il days left in which to issue the re- maining 23,000. Indications are that there will be great rush of appli- cants unless many of them are to be caught by the 15 per cent penalty November 15.
 The average thus far has been about 465 day. If all are licensed by November 15, it will be necessary to average more than 2,000 a day.
 About $500 business firms were caught without their licenses Thurs day morning and, according to law, will be obliged to pay the 15 per cent penalty.

The session was to discuss appointments for the 600 or more ministers in the North Alabama Conference. The task con fronting the bishop and the cabinet is a very arduous one and there is great deal of work yet necessary be- fore an announcement will be ready for the conference. Efforts of the most strenuous kind were made Thursday to obtain some inkling of what was being done by the cabinet but Bishop Candler has been able to impress his 13 associates that any in formation given out or even intimated would incur his extreme displeasure. The statement was made that all Of the members of the conference were absolutely bomb proof when 1t comes to even limiting at what has been done or contemplated. Despite the utmost secrecy, however, 1t was felt around the conference Thursday that not many startling changes will be made in the Birmingham or Bessemer dis tricts. but as one minister dryly re- marked, one could not foretell what the cabinet would do before it was through work.

ARMY-YALE WILL DRAW 8O,OOO FANS
Yale Is Stronger This Year Than In 1922, Says
 Brown

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.--The largest single gatherings of football fans this season, S0,000 persons probably will see the Army and Yale engage in their colorful gridiron annual at Yale Bowl Saturday.
 That contest will attract general interest for 1t marks Yale's first test against opposition of recognized strength.
 Thus far this season the Ellis have swept aside all foes, and their play against Brown last week led to state ments from Brown players that Yale is 40 per cent stronger than in 1922. The 1922 Eli team played to tie with the Cadets.
 The Army has suffered one defeat this year, from Notre Dame, but as the Hoosiers whipped Princeton one week later by a larger margin and, last week piled up 35-point total on the reputedly strong Georgia Tech eleven, few regard the Army s single defeat as indication of real weakness.
 Yale has undergone many changes since 1922. Only three first string veterans of 1922 were lost through graduation, yet of the eight return ing regulars five will be missing from the Eli line up Saturday. CndTley V f1edIn HdS petA lOSl through injury and Deavor, Miller, Neiflinger and Neale have been busted by substitutes.
 The Dartmouth Cornell engage ment at Hanover, N. H., marks the fifth meeting of those college since football relations were re-established in 1919. and is the rubber" game of the series, Dartmouth having won in 1919 and 1922, and Cornell having been victorious the last two years.
