EnSIey Citizens In Close Touch With Montgom-

ENSLEY BUREAU l THE AGE-HERAID ' Ensley, Ala. July 2S ]

Members of the Alabama senate from all parts of Alabama were in touch with EnsHey Saturday, regard ing the bill of Senator Brewer to take the EnsIey steel works and the Semet- -Solvay company properties into the city of Birmingham. After undergoing an adverse report from the committee on local legislation, the senate will be asked to order that action vacated by the senator of Jefferson county atrthe next legis- lative day, which is Tuesday or Wednesday.
 The intention of Mir. Brewer, being known in Ensbey, caused communica- tions Saturday with over 20 members of the senate in various parts of the state and almost in every instance assurances were given that they would vote against the plan
 rhe adverse action on the bill was the third time in 25 years that sen- ate committee refused to be bound by senatorial courtesy, and even thls has not discouraged MT. Brewer from his announced intention of having the senate as whole pass judgment upon his bill. It was stated in Ems ley Saturday afternoon that the com mittee from the Kiwanis club and the Ensley Associated Merchants would return to Montgomery when the bill is brought up 6 that step was thought needful. It was stated that the successful continuation be- fore the senate committee would lend a certain amount of weight to the op- position to the measure on the floor of the senate. After the talks in Ensley Saturday with various sena- tors the feeling was general among the committee that Mir. Brewer would have a difficult time convincing the members of the upper house of the efficacy of his measure. In Ensley the feeling Is general that the bill is in no danger of being passed, espe- cial1y as the point of order will be whether the bill shall be taken from the adverse calendar where It Is now resting. Members of the house have indicated that if the measure ever comes before them 1t will be buried almost as deep as the late King Tut's tomb

FAIRFIELD BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD ! Fairfield. Ala. July 28 J

A delegation of Fairfield citizens headed oy a committee from the Ex
 change club will request the board of revenue to repair the road out of Fairfield known as the No. road. Since the direct highway to Bessem- CT has been closed while permanent paving is being constructed detours have been necessary from Fairfield to Bessemer by way of that road. h.
 asmuch as the road has never been much to brag about, being of chert the heavy traffic has literally torn the highway into bits and travel is becoming increasingly difficult through the detour. Citizens of Fair field being aware of the local neces
 sity for the road, even when the direct route to Bessemer is open, have been trying to obtain some relief for the situation. The decision to go direct to the board of revenue was reached after others efforts have proven without success. In connec- tion with this road it has been sug- gested that the route to a certain length Is private road of the Ten nessee Coal. Iron and Railroad com pany but whether this will have any bearing upon the board of revenue no one seems to know. The delegation will leave nothing undone to bring about the repairs, 1t is stated.

 Trees planted will be indigeous to each state. To, this end she will ap- point forestry commissions to study conditions and at the same time take steps to conserve the forests of the south.
