MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct 22.-An . ctive campaign for identification or highways through planting of trees, shrubs and flowers is being carried on by the Alabama Federation of Women. s clubs. It is recalled that California s bueatiful highways were made so large ly through the efforts of the women of the state, and it is hoped to accomplish similar result in Alabama.

Such trees as oceans and black walnuts, which are iong-lived and which have utility as well as attractive appearance, are par ticularly recommended for roadside paintings.
 As evidence of the work being done by the women's clubs, Mrs. Quinn mentioned that the Axis club of Gads- den has procured thousand crepe myrtle plants and number of poplars for planting.

LACEY ENTITLED TO HIS FREEDOM
 BY COURT RULING
$1OO,OOO Defalcator May Get Three Years Off
 His Sentence
(State Capital Bureau)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. 22.- Theo Lacey, former chief clerk of the state convict department, who IS serv- ing 16 years for packing more than S1OO, GOO of state funds into pine box and disappearing from Montgomery, and scores of other convicts will be re- leased from prison on shorter service than that charged to them by the convict department if the supreme court sus- tains a decision of Judge Leon McCord handed down in circuit court here. to- day.
 Judge McCord held that sentences shall be regarded as one sentence in the computation of time to be allowed for good behavior. As a result the second sentence of six years charged to Theo Lacey will be completed in three years with the result that he identified to his liberty this month if the decision is sus- tained by the appellate court. Having served one term of ten years Lacey will be entitled to three years off his second sentence for good behaviour. If his second sentence were regarded as an additional sentence his short term would be only one year and one-half.
 Judge McCord's decision was render ed in the case of Ben Jones, Jefferson county, convict. Jones contended that he had not been allowed the proper time for good behavior. Judge McCord ruled that his contention was correct.
 J. 0. Smith, attorney general, several years ago ruled that each sentence must be considered separately in the compu- tation of time for good behavior. When that ruling was made the board of ad- ministration added one year and one half to the sentence of Lacey an the ad- ditional time to all other convicts who were serving more than one sentence. " Harwelt G. Davis, attorney general announced that an appeal will be taken to the supreme court without delay.
