CHICAGO, June 2o.-The record of achievement established by Ameri- can railroads during the past year ership. leaders of the industry told the convention of the mechanical d. vision of the American Railway asso- citation which opened here Wednes- day.
 The efficiency of private owner ship has been proven completely, according to R. H. Ashton, president of the association.
 Samuel M. Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive works, sup ported Aishton's claim in message read here later.
 "Everything should be done by those who are interested in the well fare of our country to prevent such a catastrophe as government own ership of the railroads" Vauclain said. terming the recent Chicago Bryan combination" a grand stand play" to promote government own ership.
 The recent slump in railroad &C., tivity is over and operation is so- ing on a 100 per cent perfect basis. so far as mechanical efficiency is concerned. the convention was ad- vised in a message from w. w. At terbury. operative vice president of the Pennsylvania system.
 "Antt-railroad propaganda was heavy upon us for awhile" said Atterbury. and this. coupled with strikes. industrial discontent and featherbed pobs forced on the work CTS. made the situation a bad one.

DAVIS WILL STUDY IMMIGRATION ! N TRIP ID EUROPE
Restriction of Foreign Tide Will Be Sought In
 Congress
WASHINGTON BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALU

in order to make a thorough study of migration, the secretary of la bor, James J. Davis. will go to Europe and Asia this year (exact date Is not made known), and will be accompanied by some members of the Senate and House committees on immigration.
 Invitations have been extended, 1t is learned by this bureau today. al though no confirmation can be had at the department of labor. Senators King of Utah, Harris of Georgla, Harrison of Mississippi and George of Georgia, democrats, have been in- vited. l.. B. Rainey of Alabama, Is the only southerner member of the committee of the House and he will not be a member when next Congress reconvenes.
 Questions Important.
 The fact that Davis prepares to go west Is taken to mean that immigra- ton will be regarded by the adminis- tration as a prime topic for the con- sideratlon of the Congress beginning in December. The Congress Is ap- parently amenable to the wishes of organized labor relative to further restriction of immigration. At the same time certain administration lead CTS stand with Judge Ebert H. Gary of the United States Steel corpora ton. that inasmuch as there Is a shortage of labor the bars should be let down.
 Senator Harrison Is author of the amendment which is & law which re- duced the number of immigrants which may enter tho United States from 5 to per cent of the number from each country presently In the United States. Senator Harris of Georgia urged that that percentage be reduced.
 As far as can be learned today no member has accepted definitely the secretary's invitation.

SARTAM TO LEAVE DRY DIRECTORSHIP| M STATE JUNE 30
Compliments Brandon, Mo- Adory And Sheriff For Co.,
 operation Given

Judge Charles M. sartain of Jas per, federal prohibition director for Alabama, who resigned his position June 15. effective at once, received a letter Wednesday morning from Roy A. Haynes, feoeraI prohibition commissioner at Washington, in which he complimented Director sar- tain and stated that his resignation would be accepted June 30.
 Judge Sartain's resignation grew out of the curtailment of his forces to fifteen prohibition agents for the state, making one agent responsible for four and one-half counties, which to the director seemed an impossi- bility.
 My hat is off to Governor Bran don and to Walter K. McAdory, head of the state law enforcement depart ment, for the cooperation they have given in enforcing the prohibition law and to the sheriffs of the 67 counties of the state who have also assisted the federal agents. With out the aid of these men prohibition in Alabama would be 2 joke"
 These were Director Sartain's com ments to an Age-Herald reporter. He said he would reurn to his business of operating coal mine and the erection of concrete bridges. Judge Sartain has been disgusted with con- ditions which have existed in the federal prohibition department for some time and 1t was in a jovial man. ner that he talked of his future plans.
 Director Sartain will return to Bir- mingham from Jasper Thursday morning and remain at the Birming- ham office until June 30. He will be succeeded by Edgar N. Reed, di- visional chief for the Washington Maryland-W West Virginia area, as acting director.
 Following the arrival of MT. Reed, a complete new organization will be formed to carry on the enforcement of the national prohibition act in Alabama, it is expected.

Dickson Says Birmingham Citizens Must Bear With Flies and Smells Yet Awhile. Silent On Bond Issue
GARBAGE CANS DECLARED BIGGEST PRESENT NEED
Commissioner Stresses Law On Equipment And An- nounCse Better Service In Wagons-Add Two More

After weeks of investigation Com missioner W. E. Dickson has about reached the conclusion that, with the financial situation what it is, Bir- ming ham will continue to use the garbage dumps.
 MT. Dickson said his views did not express an attitude and that he was open to argument but as long as the income of the city totals what it is today and the present uses for the money continue like they are now, he has, so far not been able to find any other solution.
 1ncineration, the commissioner said, Wednesday morning at the city hall, obviously is the most desirable so- lution, preferable to all others tried out by cities using the system, but the cost Is considerable, not only to get started, but to keep it going.
 From the survey MT. Dickson made some time ago Birmingham could have garbage incineration by an ex- penditure of from s200,000 to s3Q0.000 for central plant serving the main part of the city, and branch units Ensley. North Birmingham and Woodlawn. a total outlay in the vi- cinity of s450,000.
 Mir. Dickson indicated that the only way to raise this fund was through bond issue, but he did not say he ad- | He did saXs however, that the pres ent finances of the city not only did not make feasible, but actually could not be stretched to cover this outlay Garbage Cans Needed.
 The biggest need of the garbage situation i'll Birmingham right now is garbage cans" Mir. Dickson said. garbage. cans with tops, and tops that fit. and tops that are kept on the cans.
 There are from 5000 to 1000 new homes in Birmin gham and about 1000 new stores added to the city since the city was able to add to it's battery of garbage wagons. but two new wagons will be put on next week, which will help considerably"
 Attention of the citizens Is invited by the street department to the law on the placement of garbage. It must be in cans. with tight fitting lids When the house is served by an alley, the can must be placed within five feet of the entrance of the all ley. Where not served by an alley. the garbage collectors will go after the can, but after emptying it, will leave it at the sidewalk
 Commissioner Dickson was greatly interested in the clean-up campaign backed by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. That Is one of the main necessities of any such situation" he said. when civic organizations take hold and cooperate for the better ment of q city. l wish every organ iZation in the district would take similar measures. It takes public sentiment to put over anything of that nature"
 It was suggested Wednesday by persons interested in the garbage situation that a vote could be taken, with little cost, on the matter of bond issue for incinerators at the same time the initiative election about the future of the jitneys is be- ing held,

chinery and thus far all were report ed to have been satisfactory.
 Captain Hartley, interviewed by newspaper men aboard the Leviathan, has answered all questions frankly. Tonight he disclosed the fact that the ship has an uninvited mascot In the form of a black cat, which turn ed up on deck today. The creature slipped by the guards after the Le- viathan sailed from Boston and was twice put off by the supersttious seamen. Casting superstition to the sea breezes, the crew has named the cat Levi" (the doughboy's name for the Leviathan), and it has been &C., cepted as good omen.
 It was pointed out that one third of the crew, including wards, Is made up of American born citizens. Another third is composed of natur- alized citizens, while the final third possesses first naturalization papers,

That dis tinction will go to Friday, June 22. despite the popular belief that June 2l Is invariably the longest day of the year."
 MT. Horton explained that vari- ations occur almost annually in the longest day of the year. "One distinction" he added, you might possibly claim for Thurs day is that If the thermometer continues to climb as 1t has for the past few days. Thursday will be the hottest day of the present summer"
 Monday. the mercury stood around the s9 point. Tuesday 1t went to 91, which was the high est recorded for the summer. and Wednesday beat that record by two degrees when 1t touched the 93 mark. Thursday, according to MT. Horton, Is indicative of breaking even that record. Tt might be the hottest, but will not be the longest day of the year." he added.
