SMALL PER CENT OF
 TAX YET UNPAID
Only 5000 Property Owners
 Listed Among Delinquents

Approximately 5000 Jefferson coun- ty property owners will be included in list to be submitted to Probate Judge J. F. Stiles for failure to pay their taxes before midnight Saturday, Tax Collector J. F. Hawkins estimated. They represent approximately $500,000 in taxes due the city, state, county and special school fund, he said.
 ''The tax collectors office usually collects about $7,000,000 in taxes every year." Mir. Hawkins said, "so. only about seven per cent of this amount will have to be advertised as required by law. This percentage is low as com pared with that for other counties in the state."
 All real estate on which taxes have not been paid will be certified to and collected on by the probate office; and after citations have been served, either personally or by advertisement, the tax collector will be instructed to adver- tise property for sale.

NEGRO LABORERS
 AGAIN PLENTIFUL
Tired Of Cold North, They Are Returning In Droves,
 Says J. E. Penney

Alabama negroes who fell into traps set by labor, agents and went north last year, now are coming back home in droves, according to J. E. Penny, prom inent ;real estate man and one of the largest property owners in the state.
 Mir. Penny is in close touch with the labor situhtion, since he owns. a total of 54,0O0 acres of farm land through out Alabama,
 Labor is much more plentiful than it was this time Last year." he says. Negroes in large numbers are return ing from the north and applying for jobs. I believe this situation is gen. southern states.
 "A great many letters are sent me from negroes who formerly worked for me. They say they are too cold up in the north, that they are out of work and that they want to come on back to stay. Usually they wind up by asking that transportation be sent them by wire so they may start back at once.
 "In my opinion, the exit of southern negroes to the north reached its high tide last year, and from now on there will be less and less of it. As rule, southern negroes soon become restless and discontented in the north, especial ly when they find that things are not as they were represented. The return movment is a good thing, not only for the agricultural pSogress of the south, but for the negroes themselves. I do not believe Alabama will be troubled much longer with shortage of negro labor" #

Police raid city hall :!

That was a near reality Saturday evening when H. E. Morris and E. A. Lyons arrested John I. Shelby, 722 Seventy street, south, porter of the building.
 Authorities have long held the hunch that all of the liquor confiscated by prohibition forces did not go where it should-down the sewer-and Shelbys arrest is believed to have proved it.
 He was said to have been caught as he ran. down the stairway with six gallons Of liquor under his arm.
 This liquor, it is believed, was hid den by Shelby some time previous when the pouring out" process was going on under the direction of the custodian

lar"e and completely appointed kitchen will receive close attention, while balancing this on the left side will be found the motor room supplying re- uuirements of the organ, and adjacent thereto deacon's room and library.
 The Sunday school proper represents the actual educational plant of the structure.
 The Sunday school, of 1,S00 capacity, is arranged in two units which extend through the ground floor, main floor, balcony and upper balcony or mezza- nine floor, thus giving for certain occa- sions separate space for boys and girls.

On the right is the primary department, with assembly room for 160. In the space between these two departments will be found the service entrance, coal bin opening to alley and boiler room ad- joining. Twin boilers furnish steam heat for each half of building separately, so that either the Sunday school or church may be heated independently of the other.
