President a Hold Out"
President Warren 6. Harding and
host of Washington's foremost
residents in official and diplomatic
rank are to attend the game.
1t was learned today that Presi-
dent Harding has a standing joke
with Clark Griffith, to the effect
that the Chief Executive is willing
to pitch for the Washington team,
but is holding out for large, fat
contract.
When Griffith visited the Presi-
dent few days ago at the White
House the Nations Chief assured the
baseball man that his arm was never
in better condition. President Hard
ing will use that arm to throw out
the first baseball today.

By Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Dituminous coal operators and o1i;c;a-s of the United Mine Workers of America to- day signed a new wage agreement running for one year and covering the tri-state competitive field of Ohio, Illinois and Indiana. This agreement will be used as q stand ard for fixing wages and working conditions throughout the rest of the bituminous territory.
 The new agreement, it was an nounced, was virtually the same as that which expires April i, based on the federal fuel administration find ings in 1920 Copies were ordered sent immed lately to President Hard ing. Attorney General Daugherty and John Hays Hammond, chairman oi the United States coal commission.
 Agreement on the new contract was reached yesterday by a. joint subcommittee of r, and submitted this morning to the whole confer ence which has beoh in session here about week after transfer of the barley from Chicago
 The tri-state field produces about 36 per cent of the nations o00,G00.00t annual bituminous tonnage. Signing up of the rest of the territory was regarded as mere formality.
 The conference fixed January g. 1924. as a date for reconvening to draw up an agreement to cover the year beginning April 1, 1924.
 The agreement calls for S7.50 for eight hours for day wor kand s1.OS per ton for contract miners. The contract is for one year instead of two, as the union had sought.

NEW CEMENT MILLS. BEGIN TO TAKE SHAPE;;'
 VALUED AT S5,000, ,000.

Birmingham two new cement mills are making a fine showing above ground, much of the structural steel work on both having been erected. The steel frame work is in such shape as to clearly indicate the finished appearance and size of the various buildings at each plant.
 Portland Cement company hopes to be able to begin manufacture of ce- ment early in July. This is present expectation with fulfillment based on numbers of contingencies, espe- cially weather conditions as they affect construction. Each plant is being built for 1.50o.0 000 barrels ca pacity and the total investment in the two plants is figured at s5,000.- 000
 The building of these plants has occasioned a lot of work at local steel and concrete. as well as other plants. The Virginia Bridge and Iron company is furnishing the steel for the Phoenix company, and the Ingalls, Iron Works is furnishing the steel for the Lehigh. From 1900 to 1.400 tons of structural steel is be- ing or has been placed in each of the plants.
 When the two plants are complet- ed they will add 3,000,000 barrels of capacity to Alabama's yearly pro- duction, which will more than dou- ble the present production.
 1t is believed this production will be available for all or greater part of the second half of the year.

slOE FIGHTS. CIVIL SERVICE. BILL OFFERED.
Says It Would Result in Complete Generalization of Police and Fire
 Departments of
 Birmingham

Preparations are being made by w. B. Cloe, public safety commits sioner, to fight actively the civil service bill for policemen and fire men, which it was announced Wednesday had been introduced in the legislature by Representative Fite of Jefferson county at the request of the officers and fire fighters. The pub lie sofety commissioner con- ferred during the day with the city attorney, announced that he would lay the matter before the whole commission, and said he would prob ably have a substitute bill drafted and introduced in the legislature.
 Commissioner Cloe declared that this measure would result in a com plete demoralization of the police and fire departments. It removes authority to name and remove men from the head of the public safety department, ne said, but responsi- bility is still lett with that head for the proper conduct of the depart ment. He said he believed the en- tire commission, with the possible exception of Commissioner William L. Harrison, would stand behind him in his opposition to the measure.
 Fayors Such Measure
 T am in favor of a civil service bill that protects employees of the police and fire departments against removal for political purposes" said Commissioner Cloe but this par ticular bill is aimed at destroying all centralized authority and would result in complete demoralization and absence of discipline. It places ap- pointlve power in the hands of a commission composed of persons who know nothing of the needs of the fire and police departments. There Is no provision for even approval of the head of the public safety department, who is responsible for proper conduct of 1t. If this bill is adopted, l could not even order men 10 work. l would be- commits sioner of public safety in name only
 Added Financial Burden
 Moreover. it calls for an added financial burden of $3,000 year that Will nave to De borne by lhe already overtaxed police and fire depart ments. l am unalterably opposed to this measure as it stands, although l would give my hearty support to a bill protecting the men against political appointments. I have not removed a man since have been in office for cause other than unbe- coming conduct or neglect of duty"
 Commissioner Cloe had announced some time ago, before the bill was drafted, that he favored such a plan in principle He said Wednesday he had studied the proposed mea- sure thoroughly before pronouncing his opinion of it.
 The substitute bill Cloe probably will have framed and which will possibly bear official approval of the city. will, according to the com missioner, contain provision for ex- animation of policemen and firemen and creation of a civil service com mission, but will leave final word in employing and discharging men with the commissioner of public safety.
