SENATOR UNDERWOOD

Birmingham extends a sincere a1o cord;s1 welcome to Senator Unde1s- wood on his return after an arduouS session of congress and prolonged tour of certain European counties. Tho ra,ne of Underwood and the name cf Alabama are associated together by rcop!e everywhere. Because the ca rcel. of Alabamas senior senator has been so illustrious, his native state v'ews his record with unmingled pride. He justly bears the title of the states foremost citizen, one whose fame ana popularity overflow the boundaries ot Alabama until they reach the dlmen- s:ons appropriate to one who IS both & national and an international figure.
 Senator Underwood's championship Of the projects that are peculiarly Iiabama's, such as the development Of Muscle Shoals, the extension of fed cral eid to public highways, the open irr of the Warrior to inland naVlga- ton, the development of tue port of Mobile, the deepening of the channel karbor at Mobile, and all the other enterprises on which the prosperity of this state is based, marks him as man of breadth and vision who does not, among considerations of national moment, lose sight of the legitimate claims of Alabama upon his services and attention While the eyes of the nation are turned upon Senator Un- derwood as one of undisputed presi- dential caliber, his own state does not fail to regard with new respect his po- litical stature.

A SUCCESSFUL PLAYGROUND

What has been accomplished in the creation of Underwood Park, it's devel- opment to date and the assured sched- ule of that further development which will make it a model recreation and playground for children of that ccnl- munity is a stimulus to other neigh borhoods in Greater Birmingham and the city commission to continue the building of modern and well-equipped playgrounds until no section of the city is without them.
 The Underwood Park Association is primarily responsible for Underwood Park in it's present status, and the fin ished form which, under agreement it is to assume. This association it. self raised $5,000 and secured another $5.000 from the city for the improve ments. The city government was the more easily led to do it's part because the citizens of the Underwood Park vicinity showed their earnestness, their sincerity and their willingness to do their part. What has been done at Underwood Park and what is to be done there can be duplicated all over Birmingham until there is not sec tion where the children lack attractive and commodious play and recre ation centers. That the adults of the com munity also enjoy such neighbour 'od improvements goes without saying.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-21

This situation is widely admitted to have arisen in part from the many failures of juries to convict for crime on evidence of guilt which should en- able any intelligent and conscientious juryman to reach a fair and sound verdict. Many citizens of Alabama are known to hesitate and even to re- fuse to convict of an offense which under the law is punishable by peni- tentiary sentence, as long as the con vict lease system is in operation. One of the best known judges of the crimi- nal courts in the state has publicly declared that this inhumane system is materially handicapping the admin istration of justice for this very req son.
 Every thoughtful and patriotic citi- zen of Alabama knows something of the damage caused to a state in which law enforcement and law observance are loosely and lightly regarded. Such a condition cannot be compensated by ten times the amount of money which Alabama derives from permitting it's unfortunate wards to be driven to the limits of human endurance to serve the purposes of private greed. Those who are sincerely concerned for Alabama's welfare may well consider how it is possible for the state in it's direct responsibility for such situa- ton to acquire any benefits from a system which has been abolished by all the other states because it is mor- ally wrong in principle and economi- cally unsound in practice. If the thought, time and energy which Gov ernor Brandon and members of the legislature who favor this iniquitous thing are devoting to it's continuation were as earnestly applied to its aboli- tion and to the establishment of plans whereby the states wards were hu- namely and decently cared for, the problem would soon be solved. In fact, little intelligent thought and investigation will show that it is no problem at all.

THE LAW-BREAKINC INDUSTRY

The series of articles by Roy A. Haynes, United States prohibition com missioner, which are running daily in The Age-Herald, are interesting and instructive. More than that; they give comprehensive view of the desperate ways and means adopted by powerful and interruptions organizations to null lify the law in order that they may realize tremendous profits through their illegal traffic. MT. Haynes is not only in position to acquire the facts in this widespread conspiracy, but he sets forth the situation so graphically as to arouse the resentment of every law-abiding citizen against the boot leggers of high and low degree and their tricks to evade the law.
 Few had any idea of the vast op- erations of these outlaws and of their intricate and widespread schemes un- til Mr. Haynes articles let in the light Hundreds of thousands, even millions of dollars, are employed to debauch prohibition agents and officials in or der that the bootleggers may "do busi- ness," as they say, with impunity. There seems no limit to their funds and to the desperate ends to which they go in their systems of bribery and corruption. Their so-called "bottled in bond" is in large part poison. Murder is frequently resorted to in efforts to cover their tracks and es- cape punishment. No conception of their villainy is possible until one reads the story as set forth by the pro hibition commissioner.
 The greatest danger of, it all is the deliberate attempt to pursue their purposes for gain regardless of law and decency. That they have not cor rupted a larger percentage of prohi- bition agents is tribute to the men who are undertaking to enforce the law. It is worth while for every self respecting citizen, whether or not he favors prohibition, to read and study these articles in connection with the law as protection to organized society, and to contemplate the dangers of such outlaws in their defiance of consti- tuted authority and organized govern ment
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-21

shortsighted and reprehensible. Un- der such a practice the public need expect little in the way of safe and sane government. When that prac- tice is strictly pursued, independent thought develops demand for an in- dependent party.
 Both the leading parties are con- nitted to the advancement of the pub lie interests and to the defense of the public welfare. When either discred- it's a move or measure of the other wholly because of it's origin, the faith is broken, and there is no longer just claim on the voter for party loyalty. No aspect or condition of political ex- pediency is defensible when hostile to the public welfare; else the construc- tive statesman would have to retire in favor of the political strategist, and the national welfare would take sec ond place to partisanship. That trap the American people must avoid. It is Nthe Democratic opportunity.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-21
LET LEASING STOP NOW

The measure introduced in the Ala bama senate yesterday to stop convict leasing in this state is good in every essential element except the date set for termination of the practice-Sep- tember 30, 1925. The public demand is that the practice stop at once, for the stigma and reproach will not be removed from this state until it does stop. Ninety days would be sufficient to withdraw the convicts and make at least temporary provision for them along some line of public employment. Six months at the outside would be the limit of this wrong and reprehensible system. The public admires the cour- age,and consistency of Senator Brewer i'm ignoring the senate resolution not to consider this matter and in forcing the~subject upon the senator's atten- tion. Convict leasing must stop, and there is no evidence of public belief that it is necessary to wait two more years for the consummation of this object of public desire and demand.
 The public does not approve the persistent policy of referring these matters to finance or ways and means committees. The public wants the question. referred to it's proper com mittee,, that on, prisons and penal in- stitutions. The public does not con- sider the question financial one, but one that should be settled in strict accord with the modern practices in penology. Finance committees con sider such practices last of all. The public is not,going to be satisfied with any halfway measures, or with any dealing with the question as if it were something different from what it is. Let, the nefarious system stop. Let it stopsnow Let the problem of how it is to be done be given over to the prison board, which, by all the laws of logic, should be better able to deal with it than any other.
 If there is any doubt as to the pub lie will, the public will can easily and accurately be determined. Let the legislature, if it desires to obey pub lie opinion, refer the question of inn mediate termination of leasing to the popular vote.

MOTHERS OF FAMOUS
 MEN
The Mother of Jean Fabre

Jean Fabre is one of the mod ern men who led people to love nature. to find In the out of doors world the charm and the beauty that everyone should admire. Mature" said some one, "is femi- nine. She is beautiful, kindly, gracious; with a gift for everyone; stormy at times. and yet always inspiring" There is little ques- tion that Jean Fabre gained much of his love of nature from his mother and from the influences that his mother threw around him. As a girl she was Victoire Salgues, and she lived In Saint Looms. in France. Her father was prosperous man who held the somewhat important office of bal Tiff. At the same time, the pros perfty was prosperity in means of happiness rather than in money. There was a small farm, a little house. and sufficient food. There was no luxury.
 The girl, Victoire, was brought up in a country home, and she found all her pleasure in country surroundings. When she married she continued to live in the coun- try. It was her delight to take her little son Jean to the grand fathers farm. There she set him to play by the duck pond; to go fishing along the country streams: to watch the cattle and the pigs; and to listen to the quaint stories that the grandmother told. That grandmother, in her queer, high cap. and in the costume of the peasants of that district, did for little Jean what the grandmother of Walter Scott did for the great Scotch novelist.
 She told him stories. Grand mother and mother alike made the little boy immensely fond of the country and of country sights. They encouraged him in his love of the outdoors life, and in his observation of animal life. That motherly encouragement Jean Fabre transmitted into poetic Writing about nature. Much of literature, indeed, is only mother love translated.
