NEW CONCEPTION IS GAINED HERE OF GREAT WORK Dr. Weatherford States Purpose Of Drive
 In Birmingham URGES COOPERATION FOR CHARITY CAUSE Committees Report Col lection Of $75,O00 At
 Headquarters

Preparatory to the start of the 1925 Community Chest drive Tuesday morning, Bir- mingham received a new con- ception of what the chest means to the city from the ad- dress by Dr. w. D. Weather ford, head of the Y. M. c. A, Training school in Nashville, the principal speaker at the final workers meeting at the Tutwiler hotel Monday night.
 A Community Chest does more than care for the suffering and distress of a city, Dr. Weatherford declared. It pro vides facilities for character building of the youth of the city which could be gained in on other way.
 "A community" he said, 'is a group of intelligent people living in close prox' imity and trying to develop like ideals activities and purposes.
 'We already have developed this idea of community activity in our educational system. We are community minded as to the development of character.
 "The Community Chest is an at: mpt of the whole community to Go certain things which no individual can do for himself" Dr. WeatherfOrd added. He then enumerated four things which the Community Chest does not hope to do It does not hope togreduce the amount of money put into the social and char itable institutions. It does not attempt to lift the load of giving off the should CTS of the men who have money to those who have but little. It does not attempt to take over the tasks of the various social agencies, and lastly, he stated, it is not trying to do just one type of thing, but is attempting to de- velop character as well as aid the stricken.
 Community Move
 'The whole community needs the Community Chest" Dr. Weatherford asserted in this connection" and in the Community Chest all the people are working for all thj people" As the finals of his talk, he gave ten reasons why Birmingham needs the Community Chest. They are:
 Everyone in the city has share in the various social agencies.
 It reduces the cOSI OL rdlSAlS hloheJ by the B different agencies and en. ables Birmingham to use about $6O,OOO a year more for its work.
 It makes sure that the smaller -agen- cies without large and important boards get the money they need.
 It demands an audit Oi each agency to make sure that the funds are not expended in careless manner.
 It frees the time of the workers on the various agencies so that they spend their hours doing constructive, help full work.
 It saves the time of business men,

INJUNCTION SERVED NV AQUEDUCT RO "

lBx Associated Press ]

INDEPENDENCE, Cal, Nov. It. Judge Dehy of the superior court of Inyo county, today granted an applica- ton by the city of Los Angeles for a temporary order to restrain Owens Val ley ranchers from interfering with .the Los Angeles aqueduct. Sheriff Collins of Inyo county left at once for Long Pine to serve the order on the small army of ranchers there which yester- day seized and opened the Alabama waste gates.
 The city's complaint states that the waste of water is 29O cubic feet sec ond and that the approximate loss is $15,OO0 daily. The order is returnable next Monday.
 The only names mentioned in the documents are those of Mark Q. Water son and w. R. Mccarthy, prominent ranchers. All the others, upwards of 100 in number, come under the cate gory of John Doe.

of forms of taxation that interested the people of the various states. On the contrary, they had just about con- cluded that "the more forms of taxa. tion, the more money will be spent The more important problem facing the state officials, the Michigan gov ernor thought, was to stabilize gov ermental expenditures, keep expenses within reason" and If that is done, ] don't believe we will have much trouble with the kind of taxes to be levied"
 He was of the opinion that gross ex- travagance existed in some instances and that "the taxpayer really{ did not get his moneys worth.
 Place the tax burden where it can best be borne," pleaded Governor Hen " l.. Whitfield of Mississippi. Gov ernor Whitfield said the people who consume the states resources should pay; therefore, he favored an income tax, and similar view was expressed by several others, although some said their states had voted against it.

AMERICAN PLAN MAY BE OFFERED
 AT OPIUM MEET
U. s. Serves Notice That System Must Be De-
 vised To Curb Traffic
(By Associated Press

GENEVA, Nov. 17.--An American offensive launched at the very start ap- pears to have impressed the delegates to the international opium conference which opened at Geneva today that the United States is determined to do ev- erything humanly possible to bring re- suits from an international gathering which has been convoked to strike another effective blow at the world traf- fife in opium and narcotic drugs.
 After taking preliminary steps for organization under the presidency of Herluf Zahle of Denmark, the Seonfer- ence adjourned until tomorrow after noon, This was to meet the convent ence of those delegates who have not completed their work in connection with the preliminary conference and who de- sire to frame some kind of conven- ton.
 Many Petitions Received
 The international conference has re- ceived numerous petitions. One from the International Medical association of China, comprising chiefly American and British physicians, which declared that the habitual use of opium, morphine and heroin is unnecessary, deleteriOus and morally degrading. The associa- ton added the warning to physicians throughout the world that the greatest care should be exercised in prescribing narcotic drugs, as it might lead to a habit worse than disease itself.
 Various British organizations headed by the League of Nations Union ad- dressed the conference urging that the British and Indian governments should see to it that the exportation and i'm portation of opium in connection with the eastern colonies is gradually re- duced over a period of 10 years, until it is prohibited altogether. Exception is made for opium required for medical and scientific purposes.
 U. $. Demands Action
 Alluding to the failure of the pre- ceding conference, which was confined to countries having far eastern colonies, to elaborate an effective system for the suppression of the opium traffic in the Far East, Representative Stephen G. Porter, head of the American delega- tion, at the outset of todays delibera- tions made it clear that something must be done in this direction. He gave no- tice that the American delegation re- served the right to present some sug- gestions looking to the regulation of the situation in the Far East. Thus, he paved the way for later introduction of some American plan of attaining suppression of legalized opium smoking within q definite period of years.
