Autos, Roadway Buying And

Ants, road way buying and bond

on the wrong side of the ledger for
the first seven months of the fiscal

cording to the official financial re-
port given out at the city hall
Thursday.
In the fight waged against the
Latin American wingless pests Biz

"SOULSFOR SALE"
TO FEATURE BILL
AT LOEWS BDOU
Rupert Hughes Super Attrac-
ton To Open Weeks
Run Monday

Birmingham movie fans are in
for real treat when Goldwyn's new
Rupert Hughes picture. ,"Souls for
Sale" comes to Loew's Bijou on Mon
day, May oS. Owing to the magnitude
of this picture, described as a real
superfeature, and in order that every
one may see it during the week after
next. Souls for Sale" will be shown
the entire week, and the vaudeville
program will be changed entirely
Monday and Thursday as usual.
Although the story deals with life
and events of the motion picture col
ony, Mr.. Hughes has not forgotten
how to be easy. natural and human
in the telling of his tale. 1t possesses
an abundance of all those qualities
which have endeared him, both as
novelist and motion picture euthor-
director, to the American public. In
addition to the -be-expected and
greatly admired qualities of Mr..
Hughes, one may find in Souls for
Sale" his conception of what the
screen spectacle should be, revealed
in the destruction by fire and storm
of a great modern circus. covering IL
acres of ground. This forms the
dramatic and highly romantic climax
of this realistic story of motion pic
ture people.
Goldwyn has given Mr.. Hughes in
Souls for Sale" a cast in keeping
with the bigness and importance of
the film. There are six roles of out
standing importance and these are
played by Eleanor Boardman, Mae
Busch, Barbara La Marr Richard Dix,
Frank Mayo and Lew Cody. In addi-
ton to these there is a long cast of
players who have made prominent
place for themselves in the screen
world.
John Mescall. Mr.. Hughes camera
man, deserves high praise for the
cleverness with which he has caught
and photographed the ideas Of Mr..
hughes. The settings of Cedric Glib
bons are marvellous in their realism
and in the dramatic atmosphere

The city of Birmingham will not
be permitted to require the Birming-
ham Belt railroad to remove two of
it's three tracks from Thirty second
street between Fifth and Eighth
avenues under a decision of the SUI
preme court Thursday in the case
of the Birmingham Belt VS.. city. The
judgment of the Jefferson circuit
court awarding a judgment to the
city was reversed and one was rem
dered in favor of the railroad.
The city contended that the rail-
road had authority to maintain only
one track on the street between the
avenues designated. 1t went into
the courts and obtained an injunc-
ton preventing the operation of
trains on any but the one track To-
The supreme court held that the
lower court WIS in error IN granting
the injunction and rendered deci-
sion in favor of the railroad.
NAY REVOKE HOTEL LICENSES
In another interesting case from
jefferson county the supreme court
held that the city of Birmingham
has the power to revoke the license
OF an operator of a hotel or ROOM
Ing house. The dispute arose When
the license held by John Bollas was
revoked Bollas commended that the
action was not permitted by law.
The big question involved the defi-
milton of "a house of public enter
tainment" Bollas insisted that his
hotel did not come within the word
Ing of the state law. The supreme
court quoted various decisions to
show that a hotel is "a house of pub
lie entertainment"
