Against Millionaire ManVilIe
In $4,000 Suit.

art" or spiritualism as a medium
to induce Charles B. Manville, mil
lionaire asbestos manufacturer to
invest I'M business enterprises was
was yesterday by Miss Beulah
Thompson, named by Manville as
the clairvoyant whose alleged tips"
cost him $4,000. She took the wit
ness stand in the suit brought by
DIR. Alonzo Austin against Manvllle
for $21 900.
Miss Thompson said when she
met Manville he told her he could
not sleep because of worry over his
wife's illness and because his son
had wrongfully taken some property
from him.
Seeks Money Paid ON Note.
DIR. Austin seeks to recover money
he says he was wrongfullly forced
to pay after endorsing note for
Manville. The latter has brought
counter suit for $4,000 he says
he lost in oil stocks in which Aus
tin is alleged to have induced him
to invest. :,
Miss Thompson denied she made
a habit of giving business advice
which she obtained through the
practice of spiritualism. She de-
MED she had given tips to Charles
M, Schwab and various other
prominent men.
Denial that Schwab had ever at

Tells of Manville's Will.
DIR. Austin testified that she had
been named one Of Manville's ex-
ecutors when the latter drew his
will some time ago. The will, it
was stated. later was destroyed.
Asked If he knew what Man
ville's purpose was in making will
at that particular time, DIR. Austin
said Manville wanted to leave his
fortune as a large foundation for
the good of humanity, and that he
did not wish his sons. to have any
more of it, 'They have taken
enough from me-" DIR. Austin said
Manville told him.
DIR. Austin denied he knew
Schwab or Tiffany, the jeweler."
He denied also they attended
'seances' at the apartment of Miss
Thompson.

CARELESS PICNICKER S
(Indianapolis Star)

QndianapoltS starr
 A nation wide movement has been started to induce motorists to clean up the countryside and remove any litter which may re- main after they have stopped for lunch or an all-night camp. The need for such campaign applies more to the automobile party having a picnic out in the coun- try than 1t does to the tourist. The latter has grown accustomed to looking for designated camp ing sites, and his appreciation at finding them free from refuse naturally induces him to leave them in that condition for the next conner. The members of pie nic parties are more thoughtless and often leave mass of paper and food to litter up choice grassy spot which the owner has kindly permitted them to enjoy.
 The average farmer Is glad to welcome parties from the city and to tender the use of pasture land through which a stream may flow. He is justified in growing hard boiled" however, if care less and indifferent visitors abuse his hospitality by littering up the place, leaving the gate open, breaking down fences and com hitting other acts of vandalism. The guilty belong to the type which regards the country as common property, stripping fruit trees of blossoms, stealing the ripened fruit and doing anything that apparently does not involve detection.

THE ANCIENT ART OF KISSING

Health specialists, notably those who chase and isolate germs, have devoted volumes of space to the dan gers of kissing. For decades they have told of the various and sundry diseases that spread from this form and young lady have resolved to dis continue the sport for time, only to forget their resolutions under an im- pulse prompted by enticing environ ment, the influence of the love god, or what not. Instead of changing the situation, the health scientists warn ings seem to have increased the kiss ing industry, until it has developed what are known as "petting parties" and that sort of thing at seaside and other resorts and wherever parking space can be found. Kissing is con tagious whether other germs are or not.
 A Maryland health officer, appar- ently despairing of efforts to abolish an age-old institution, declares that the safest place to kiss a girl is on the nape of the neck. Perhaps he is correct from a scientific standpoint; but sentiment is not particularly con genial with modern science. The av- craze man devotes little serious thought to the safety first" aspect
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-03

of the situation. He attaches some value to the risk involved, else whence came the old idea that "stolen kisses are sweetest?" Imagine a young man of "sp6ony" inclinations guard ing against long hat-pins and other more or less dangerous paraphernalia when watching for an opportunity to plant his lips on the nape of his idols neck, and ignoring the cheery, or cherry, lips that seem to have been made, or painted, for that specific purpose.
 With the world full of sentiment, and youth bubbling over with fancy and impulse, there is little likelihood that warnings against germs will change an institution founded on the custom of ten thousand years. Neither nature nor art will take a back seat for science. Picture lyric poet de- scribing a kiss emplanted on such a safety zone as the nape of the neck! It would be enough to make the man in the moon snicker outright, and break up the tryst.

DOESN'T HAPPEN HERE

A news item from New Bedford, Massachusetts, under date of June 21 relates: "More than half of the New Bedford cotton mills were compelled by the heat to close this afternoon after more than fifty heat prostra- tions among operatives" An item from Lawrence, Massachusetts, of the same date says: Several depart ments of the American Woolen Com pany and other mills were shut down this noon on account of the excessive heat" Nothing like that ever oc- cured in Southern textile mills. Winter and summer, month in and month out, day in and day out, the operatives in Southern mills work in comfort, and go to and from work without facing the excessive rigors of weather.
 There is no more average warm weather in the South than in the East, but the South is tempered by the cool ing breezes of the gulf and the heat is never stifling. The South scarcely knows what sunstrokes are. Heat prostrations that occur during every heat wave in the Northern cities are of such rare occurrence in the South as to be negligible. When, added to the climatic conditions, the South has the cotton at the doors of the mills, has a constant supply of English s'reaking and American thinking la- Dor, and growing supply of water power for operation of textile mills, it is but question of time when the East will practically give up that struggle and transfer the greater part of operations to the South, confining Northern activities to production of especially fine fabrics whose price will offset the natural disadvantages of manufacture.

NOT HELPING THE WARRIOR

Colonel Ashburn informs the Mo- bile traffic bureau that full service will be resumed on the Warrior when the railroads agree to fair division of rates; when the barge service shows a profit, and when the Inter. state Commerce Commission approves the agreement between the waterway management and the railroads. Mean dova are deprived of waterway ser vice on which they have come to de- pend, the self-propelled barges Bir- mingham and Gulfport have been in definitely withdrawn from the War rior, and the railroads continue to enjoy the benefits of the present status, doubly at the expense of the public and of the barge service. The negotiations between the waterway management and the railways may be proceeding with celerity, or they may not. The public is inclined to believe that they are not. Colonel Ashburn makes no mention of the obligation of the waterway to give the service its presence has called into being, for he presumably recognizes no such obli- gation.
 The irksome feature of the situation is that the public business is being subjected to delays and blockades which would not be tolerated in pri- vate business. The whole affair is an complication of official willingness to resort to red tape and roundabout methods, and to permit such methods to the parties of the second part, while the public welfare suffers to a degree. There is not even any inti- nation that the railroads will be ex- pected to rebate the excess collections that have been enjoyed since the be- ginning of the present negotiations. Perhaps such an instimation on the part of the waterway management would remove from the railroads their present reasons for delay. The peo- pie of Alabama are far from satisfied with the way things have gone, and perhaps the people of other states who have watched the Warrior experiment with concern and desire for it's sue cess will join with the people of Ala bama in whatever measures are nec- essary to insure justice where there has not been justice to the barge ser vice.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-03

gressive measures of caring for the public needs and as long as there are regulatory and rate-making tribunals of authority and backbone sufficient to make them fall in line with the public interest when they might be inclined to forget it. The railroads have the opportunity of drawing pub lie sentiment still further from public ownership by continuance of the good service now being rendered, by per nlanently taking the public into their confidence and by showing a willing ness to meet communities halfway in their quest for consideration to which they are entitled.
