ALCOHOL MUST
NOT BE SOLD
TO INDIANS

James E. Jenkins, superintendent Of
the United States Indian service for
Nevada has sent to druggists, grocers
and other merchants throughout the
state a warning against the sale to
Indians of prescriptions containing al
colhol in sufficient quantities to pro-
duce intoxication. Mr.. Jenkins points
out that the sale of such preparations
is unlawful and is liable to prosecu-
ton.
The move on the superintendent
part is understood to have been pro-
voked by frequent reports of indulg-
ence in these alcoholic preparations
by the Indians. His letter follows:
"Selling or giving Indians any ar
ticle-food, drink or otherwise-that
contains alcohol in sufficient quanti-
ties to become an intoxicant or that
may be used for that purpose, is con-
trary to the law.
"Such liquids as denatured alcohol.
alcotone, extracts, ETC., and solids
known as canned heat contain alco-
hol and are used as intoxicants; there
loiS any peiSOl SelliiiS VI giving any
thing of the kind mentioned to In
dians is liable to prosecution.
''The United States attorney is also
of the opinion that any person selling
any of these participants to persons
other than Indians, knowing or believ-
ing or having good reason to believe
that same are sold or given to Indians,
or to be used for beverage purposes
by the buyer or by others, would be
liable to prosecution under existing
laws.
"This information is given in the
hope that merchants, druggists and
others dealing in articles and prepara-
tions of the kind mentioned will CO.
operate with the Indian department in
preventing, insofar as possible, the
sale of such preparations to Indians,
or to irresponsible persons who may
in turn sell or give them to Indians.
"Your cooperation in this matter
will be greatly appreciated"

SEEK SUSPENSION
 OF NEW TARIFFS
Birmingham Claims Pro- posed Increases Are
 Highly Unjust

The Birmingham Traffic association Friday filed with the Interstate Com- merce commission a petition asking for suspension of the proposed increases on goods freight rates from east Tennessee points to Birmingham.
 The present carload rate is 2S 1-2 cents and less carload, g. cents. It is proposed to make these rates Al. cents carload and 61 cents less carload. Sim liar increases are also being proposed from east Tennessee points to other southern cities such as Atlanta, Mont gomery, Mobile, etc.
 Particular attention is called in the petition to the fact that intrastate rates from eas Tennessee points to Memphis, Chattanooga and Nashville will remain in effect until approved for publica- tion by the Tennessee Railway commis- sion. It is stated that Birmingham comes into keen competition with these Tennessee distributing points and that 10 increase the interstate rates to Birmingham and Alabama destinations without a corresponding increase in the rates to these Tennessee points will bring about rank discrimination and create -irreparable damage.
 A second petition for suspension is also being filed with the commission for the suspension of the proposed ln- creased rates on canned goods from Mobile via rail as we'll as to the War rior river to Birmingham and other southern points. These rates are pro portional on business from the Pacific coast via the Panama canal to Bir- mingham. It is claimed by the traffic association that the increase in these rates from the ports to inland points will have the effect of increasing the through all-water rate.
 Similar increases on this Pacific coast business are also proposed to southern destinations in Georgia and Tennessee and through all ports in- cluding New Orleans, Jacksonville, Brunswick and Charleston

PLAN
 BIG PUBLICITY
 FOR BIRMINGHAM
Would Advertise OppOr- tunities Of Magic City
 To The World

< The spotlight of nationwide pub l licity is to be turned on Birmingham.
 This was decided Friday when the \ Birmingham Real Estate board started movement to tell the world of the ad- yantages which Birmingham has. These advantages, according to members of the board, are not its amusement posst' bilities, but fine climatic conditions, ! educational institutions and organiza- tions, which make Birmingham fine 1 residence city, its natural resources, its immense manufacturing industries and it's future prospects.
 The subject of advertising Birming- ham was introduced at the meeting by Clyde Nelson, of the Nelson Real Estate and Investment company, who asserted that the subject was not to bring peo- pie to the city to invest in real estate with the idea of immediate wealth. but to show the many advantages which the city enjoys. He suggested that Sl0o,- 900 be spent in the project. The idea was approved by W. B. Leedy, Jr., who made motion that the board in- torse the plan.
 The next meeting of the board is to be held at the Hillman hotel and ar arrangements arc being made to secure the band from the Alabama Boys h. dustrial school.
