WHY MORE POLICE NEEDED

Chief of Police McDuff has asked the civil service board for an additional one hundred and thirty men for the police department With the smallest police force of any city of it's class In the United States, and with fifty square miles of area to patrol, it IS oovlous that citizens of this community iecelve inadeouate protection. The business dis trict is not properly guarded against burglars, highwaymen and thieves, as shown by the frequent burglaries, while the residential district has practically no protection. In some parts the city the sight of a policeman almost creates sur prise and comment.
 Criminals and crooks, for obvious req sons, instinctively flock to city with lh- adeouate police protection. It soon De- comes known among them where they can operate with the least risk ot appre- hension. The plea of lack of funds to nav policemen is spacious. Birmingham boasts of being one of the most produc- tive and most progressive communities of it's size in the country. Other cities less we'll endowed find the means to pro- vide police protection. There is no req son why Birmingham should not do Ake- wise, especially in so important need' which is in the nature ot olrect Ill., vestment.
 A complete survey might we'll be made bv a competent person op police needs and conditions, so as to determine accurately the situation, and it would then be the responsibility of the city com mission to provide proper police proteG;,, ton. Included in this survey might well be study of the tendency of lnsuffl- cient street lighting to foster crime; Birmingham is one of the worst-lighted cities in the United States. This is also considered by the crfminally inclined in estimating the risk of apprehension: It is well known that inadequate street Ii lighting affords cover of darkness un- der which criminals may operate and es- cape. With adequate police protection and street lights it is believed that the criminal record of this community would he tremendously decreased, with propor- tionate reduction in the abnormally heavy costs of crime.

Exodus

M at Prairie du Chien, Wis.,, with 13 of her children and presents the con- ductor with but one ticket. The conductor stands somewhat aghast. He knows the regulation of the road allows free transporta- tion to children under 5. But how can a woman have thirteen of them, all entitled to this privilege? Mrs. Scott has foreseen just such question and therefore pulls the fam fly Bible from a battered suitcase. Sure enough, there. it is, with the signature of the clergyman, doctor and town clerk. Born to Mir. and Mrs. Frank Scott triplets in 1924, triplets in 1923, triplets in 1922, the same in 1921, one child in 1920" All under under 5. In all the Bible shows Mrs. Scott is the mother of 20. Another set of triplets and two sets of twins were born to her who do not come under the railway privilege of free transportation. They are already with father in their new home in Peace River val- Hey of northern Canada. That's the place The London Times calls "the new empire of the west, that abounds in wealth but lacks set tiers" There are p more settlers there now. And of a good sort at that.

Sutherland of Utah, long a delegate to Republican conventions, it is true, but of otherwise eminent attainments, and also recognized by the legal profession by being made president of the Amer ican Bar Association, an office not light ly given, nor to men of mediocre capa- city. The fourth member appointed by MT. Harding is Judge Pierce Butler, a man never concerned in politics, but a lawyer of both national and international distinction, having been retained by the Dominion of Canada in important litiga- tion and in arbitration of suits arising out of negotiations in connection with the Grand Trunk Railway.
 If MT. Daugherty had hand in any of these appointments, assuredly it is the greatest compliment that has recently, or ever been paid that discredited off cial.

Tbe Spirit of Cooperation

Three of the leading department stores of Troy have joined in double page nd lvertisement announcing sale at all three of the stores at the same time. There is given prices from each of the stores on the various lines of merchandise. There is not cut throat business here. Honest merchandising does not imply that one merchant has to take advantage of another in order to get by. On the other hand this spirit of CO., operation between these amerchants in Troy who would be looked upon as competitors because all are dealing in the same class of merchandise, will mean aogreat deal for Troy and it will mean much for these merchants. When merchants and business men show willingness to live and let live, to help ra- ther than destroy an honest competitor. busi- ness will be peter all round and business men will be happier. Be .ausef it is a fact that no real man can get pleasure out of doing injury to his fellow man.--Andalusia Star.

Bullets and Ballots

It's twenty-five years ago that Albion start ed it's aggressive policy against the Boers of South Africa. Twenty-Five years ago that Lloyd George, protesting at mass meeting in Birmingham against a war with the Boer republics, was hooted from the platform in the city of Joe" Chamberlain, hotbed of war hysteria and home of munition makers. Ten thousand troops were landing in Port Natal and Dutch riders were calling the burghers to commando" President Kruger sent out word to Fear God and keep your powder dry" The Boers were singing psalms and praying and Campbell Zimmerman declar- ed in the house of commons: We will run down those Boers with their Bible and all A quarter of century has brought some changes. The old Boers are back in the saddle. This time the saddle of govern ment. They lost the war, but gained in peace. What could not be accomplished with bullets has been done with ballots.

4 Book In Paris
IN ONE of the old book stalls that line the
 \ quays of the Seine in Paris picked LID
By DIR. FRANK CRANE

IN ONE of the old book stalls that line the \ quays of the Seine in Paris I picked up
 little book. It is mottled dark brown leather in binding, that color, that speaks age and ripeness in volume, as gray hairs upon a man. The inside cover pages are marbled and the edges are of brickdust red; the print is large and there are those ss that look like f's in the style of long ago. And the book is all about something so delightfully."- useless and interesting, to wit:
 'Sur les Brands Evenements par les Petites Causes. Tire de LHistorie A Geneve. Et ~se. trouve a Paris. M.DCC.L.- MIY." Which being Englishized, is to say, Upon the Great Events Produced by Little Causes. Drawn from History. (Published) at Geneva. And to be had at Paris, 1764."
 Within the book are most diverting in stances collected by the author. Here are few of the heads of chapters, and in these titles alone is stiniulant to the imagination each tells a story:
 "A Bee Sting is Cause of the Raising of the Siege of-a City"
 Some Chickens Captured by a Priest Cause Terrible Sedition to Be Laid"
 "The Naiyete of a Child Prevents a Re- bellion in France" NF
 Meat Eaten Upon Friday Causes the Taking of City, t3i.5
 "A Woodsaw Causes War
 Elizabeth Queen of England refuses aid to Henry ". during the League because French Gentleman says she pronounced the French language badly"
 'The jealousy of Woman causes the Ruin of Vast Empire" p,
 "A dispute among Coachmen embroils the Courts of France and Spain, to such point that they set about to prepare for War"
 An apple is the cause of the Exile of an Empress and of the Death a Grand Officer"
 "A Hare frightened by noise IS the cause of Romes being taken by Assault"
 All of which brings to mind the curious reflection we all have had, how that the great issues seem to turn upon small hinges, how that man may stub his toe and stumble into fame; how that pin-prcik may destroy a life, glance disrupt home, and small word undo a kingdom.
 All this, however, is more apparent than real. This world is not opdered by luck. The great laws are true. Only we under stand but imperfectly what the great laws are One of these trifling Incidents that cause great events may seem small and un- related, but in reality it is corner of some great law

BRIDGING THE MOBILE DELTA

It is expected that, in the November elections. the people of Alabama will be asked to approve an amendment to the state constitution authorizing Mobile county to become indebted and to issue bonds "for the construction or improve ment of concrete or better than concrete surfaced public roads, and concrete or better than concrete public bridges Tn said county, and for the construction ot bridges and roadway necessary to pro- vide a public road for vehicular travei between the highlands of Mobile ana Baldwin counties, in an amount not to exceed six and one-half per centum ot the assessed value of the property situ- ated in Mobile county"
 It appears that the sentiment in Mo bile county is strongly in favor of thls amendment, for it gives to the people or that territory the right to bond and tax themselves as they see fit for improve ments the value of which cannot be gam said, and for a toll bridge and cause way across the delta, such as the welfare of the entire state demands. The people of Alabama win do well to give the people of Mobile county this right, which the people of that section may exercise or not as they later determine.
 The bridge across the delta is pro- feet very dear to the hearts of the citi- zens of Mobile and Baldwin counties As it is now, except for the very made ouate system of bay boats, the people of these two counties, which lie through out their entire length in sight of each other, are to all practical purposes of commercial and social nature separated by water almost as widely as if an en- tire state intervened. The bridging of the delta is a project having the hearty endorsement of the war department and of the federal egineers. It is the only gap now unprovided for in the Old Spanish Trail which is being constructed from Jacksonville, Florida, to Los Ange- les, California, with a projected spur down to Mexico City. It would unite to the rest of Alabama by highway an important city and an import producing center. It would make the entire Gulf coast and all it's pleasures of bathing, boating, fishing and hunting more easily accessible to the rest of Alabama.
 But best of all, there is every reason to believe, as endorsed by expert judg- ment, that the bridge project would pay for itself in tolls and would take care of all interest and maintenance charges from the very beginning. Inasmuch as the project is believed to be a self-sup-
