 BOYS AND GIRLS,
 KIWANIS SUBJECT
CulIey Tells EnSIey Members Practical Work To
 Be Done
ENSLEY BUREAU l THE AGE-HERALD
hnsIey, Ala. AuE. 90 J

Fred Culley of Birmingham ad- dressed the Ensley Kiwanis club Thursday on the under privileged boys and girls of the Birmingham district. Having been engaged in that work in Birmingham for some time as a member of the Birmingham Xii wanis club and for the city of Bir- mingham MT. Culley was able to Inn press the members of the club with facts pertaining to the boys and girls that do not have the chance of growing up properly surrounded with elevating influences. He. reviewed the situation here and suggested that the Kiwanis club of Ensley appoint added that there were many boys and girls from his section that often times appear before the Juvenile court and that while there the boy or girl could not escape the impress sion that everyone was arrayed out that Kiwanian from Ensley who came forward and acted as a sponsor for the boy or girl and as- sisted in getting the youngster strengthened out would find the work collaborating and entirely within keeping of the spirit and aims of Kiwanis. He also threw out some
 
 girls that are suonormal suggesting ways of cooperating with these as with others. He said that frequent conferences with church and school authorities would help in the work and that proper commendation should be given the Sunday school and the day school instructors for their ef- forts. The talk of MT. Culley, which is directly in line with the interna- tional policy of Kiwanis club to make this work the paramount issue for the fiscal year was entirely pleas ing and 1t is believed the club will maks on effort to gather additional facts and suggestions, after which there will perhaps be outlined a pro- gram of work along that line.
 In addition to the talk of Mir. Gull ley the club listened to an announce ment of James Dupuy on the plans for charter night next Thursday when Gov. Frank Williamson of An niston will formally deliver the in- ternational charter to the Ensley or ganization.
 There were several visitors to the luncheon, including Nat Clarke, Jr., a son of MT. and Mrs. Nat G. Clarke; J, R. Vance, George H. Burngardner, Secretary A. E. Ansmus of the Bes- semer club. pr. John Kent of Ensley, Hoyt W. Lee of the Mobile club, Howard Yielding, Fred Culley and E. I. Leighton of the Birming ham club.

FARE REDUCTIONS. AWAIT ACTION OF. HIGHEST TRIBUNAL
Must Dispose Of Injunction Before City And Utility
 Can Get Action

No little formality will have to be gone through with before Birming- ham street car passengers can ride ticket fares. The Alabama public service commission will have to pass officially on the fare reduction. Most probably the supreme court will be asked to meet in special session to dissolve the jitney injunction,
 Neither the city or Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company has the power to redtce the fares, though the reduction was agreed on as part of the settlement ordinance. Representatives of the city and the utility will have to appear before sent the case and await official ac- tion. Officials of the Alabama pub lie service commission informed President D. E. McLendon, of the city commission, that the reduction would be favorably acted on when joint application for the reduction is made, but as it is official business 1t will have to be handled formally.
 The utility officials will not take steps, they have announced, look ing to lower fares until the jitney injunction has been disposed of.
 
 Conferences Held Thursday.
 Thursday morning w. A. Jenkins, assistant city attorney, and James Westherly, attorney for the jitney interests, were in conference. Fol lowing the action of representative jitney men in their meeting Wed nesday night MT. Weatherly agreed, Jenkins said, to join the city in request shortly that the injunction be dismissed.
 It is possible, but not expected, that Judge Lucien D. Gardner, who reinstated the injunction after it was dissolved in he Jefferson couny cir cult court, may again act alone in the matter, but it is thought more probable that the whole court will be asked to meet in special session to act in the matter. As both par ties at interest, the city and the jitney mems association, agree to the dissolving of the injunction there is no longer doubt of it's final disposal in that manner.
 At their meeting in Fraternal hall Wednesday evening the jitney men agreed to cease operation Septem- Der Is. When they take such ac- tion, the next step will be, according to opinion of lawyers interested, the reqL est before the supreme court for dissolving the injunction. That being done, representatives of the city and utility will present the mat ter of street car reduction before the public service commission.
