BOARD ASKS AID
 IN RAW MILK WAR
(Continued From Pape One. )

NOOASAAASNA n OAAA A SSRO OAOsI
 Neither President McLendon nor Com. missioner Harrison expressed an opin- ion, though both asked a number of questions.
 The hearing opened with Mrs. Echols demanding of Judge Locke, the first speaker, the names of his clients, Locke finally gave the list to the commis. sion but argued against it's publication on the ground that it might cause q blacklist to be set up. He hit at The Age-Herald and other newspapers fol recent stories and editorials touching on the milk war and charged the health department with giving out unfair statements. He said the case had been tried in the newspapers" s-
 Protect Investments
 Explaining the proposed measure, Judge Locke told the commission that if "a single paragraph could be found that struck at the health standards,| 2 he would eliminate it. The man he and MT. Beddow represent, he added, were not fighting anybody but merely seek ing to protect their investments, which run into hundreds of thousands of dol lars. He said the issue at stake did not concern the public health, but was a fight between dairymen.
 We represent 28 men, 12 of whom never had a spot of any kind against them, even from the health depart ment," he continued. 'But their busi- ness is being injured and they are be- ing intimidated and brow-beaten. It is awful. There's nothing American about it. These good men have. had hot shot poured into them for years.

ALBANY, Decatur, Ala, Sept. 29.-- "A distinct impetus was given busl- ness in the Twin Cities Monday by the regular two weeks payday of the l.. & N. shops employing around 1,SOO men. The shops are now on a full time basis. It was stated by officials that increased business on the road and the need of many cars and engines insure full time for the local shops during the winter eeasoS. In the summer the local shops were on an irregular time schedule. A number of new business houses have been opened within the last month and new building projects are quite numer- ous.
 Training School Opens.--Promptly at z o'clock Monday 75 students of the standard training school of the Decatur district Methodist Episcopal church, south, assembled for the first lectures of five days course. The school is being conducted at the Central Method fist church with the following we'll known teachers in charge. Dr. W. G. Henry of Atlanta Dr. s. T. Slaton of Birmingham, Miss Mamie Baker, of Mobile and Miss Tarham of Nashville. Rev. W. M. Mcdonald of the board of education of the north Alabama conference presided at the opening ses- sion.
 Catches Big Fish.-Horace Johnson. an employe of the l.. & N. railroad here, on Saturday night caught huge cat fish, called the Shoveled Billed Cat. The fish weighed A pounds and was over six feet in length. The great length of the fish was due in part to his shoveled bill which was over 15 inches long.

supply would not be cut off in either event. She said she had not interfered in his department and asserted the health board should have the right to pass on the measure.

WIFEGETS JOB HELD BY FORMER
 HUSBAND HERE

Mrs. Louise Owings Charlton Mon- day was appointed United States commissioner of the Birmingham dis trict by Judge W. I. Grubb. of the United States district court, to succeed her husband, Kenneth c. Charlton, from whom she is separated and whose resig- nation, effective today was filed re- gently.
 Mrs. Charlton will take the oath of office Wednesday, October l, and will immediately begin her duties in the new office in the federal building, and will be the first woman to hold sim liar position in Alabama. She is a prominent club woman.
 Mir. Charlton came to Birmingham in 1907 and has been United States commissioner since 1918 following his appointment by Judge Grubb.
 In speaking of his resignation Mir. Charlton said that for several years his law business, and his work as com missioner had made it impossible for him to handle both in a satisfactory manner.
 The number of cases set for trial this year in the fall term exceeds that of last year and he did not wish to at tempt double work.
 Since his appointment as commis- sioner Mir. Charlton has handled almost 1000 cases : for the government. In turning over, the reins to his wife, he expressed his appreciation of the coop eration extended him by federal county and city officers.

today, Ne has no assurance that his permit will not be arbitrarily revoked within 24 hours. We want the indus try stabilized before it Is completely killed. Only about 45 raw dealers are left" V
 Judge Locke charged that a "delib- crate attempt was being made to aid the business of the dairymen who are "bootlicking" the health department. He asserted his clients were good men, not outlaws, and that the health of ficer's statement that such milkmen as Tom Jacks, H. H. Shepherd and E. T. Lackey Could not be controlled was absurd"
 "Milk Monopoly"
 These dealers" he went on, "have been nagged and nagged almost to death, all because they dare to take from Dr. Bowling some of his extraor- dinary plenary powers. A milk mo- nopoly is coming fast in Birmingham. The milk regulations in the present code can be changed every day by Dowl- ing and his representatives. My men want to know what the law Is. They want charges against them placed in writing. They ask this commission to stop these little 5000 a month inspec- tors from changing the regulations just to suit theirs whims. We are merely asking a\ crumb from the table of the high and mighty. $f he must be put out of business, let it be done in a manly way. Don't church us by in- unendo and unfair charges. We ask for nothing that hurts health enforce ment. Yet, the present law does ey- erything it can for the competitors of my clients. The bacterial count now is 30,000, but it drops to 10000 on January l. We ask that this drop be halted. Let us stabilize where we are. We are ready and anxious to comply with the law, but we want to know what the law is"
 Locke told the commission he was pouring out his heart, since he felt so deeply for his clients" He took his seat amid a wave of applause from the raw milk association members.
 After recess for lunch, Attorney Beddow took up where Locke left off and waded into thes health authorities for what he called their. arbitrary acts" He served notice that his clients would keep Oh fighting if this ordi- nance fails to pass" and described the measure as "an innocent instrument without a joker"
 Beddow attacked Dr. Bowling as Ian arrogant, arbitrary official who is drunk with power" He charged that the department had held the "bludgeon of intimidation over many raw milk dealers to make them pasteurize."
