OFFICIALS STAND PAT

Will Send Name Back To Park Board For
 Confirmation
EXPECT HOT FIGHT
 FROM TWO MEMBERS
Hopeless Split In Board Causes Body To Cease
 Functioning

Lewis Bowen's name will be sent back to the park board by the city commission, and may be accompanied by note urging the confirmation of his nomination for second term. An informal canvass of commission members revealed this Saturday. IL also was learned that the members have been fairly swampedr with re- quests from citizens to ''sta:d fast"
 Official information that Mir. Bow ems nomination was rejected by the park board win reach the. commission Tuesday. The commission may re nominate him immediately. or 1t may pass the matter over for one week.
 NJ. P. Phillips and Elmer Thuston. the park board members who blocked the confirmation of Bowen, are ready to renew their fight against him when his second nomination Teuches the board. Another bitter debate is in prospect. with Chairman w. l.. Har- rison and Mrs. Charles J. Sharp sup porting Bowens

 Quits Functionlng.
 Chairman Harrison frankly states that the board, as now constituted, has ceased to function. This also is the view of Mrs. Sharp, the only woman .
 The fight on Bowen, which devel- oped without warning. has stirred keen interest in city political circles. Bowen is a leading figure in organized labor activities. His supporters are calling at the city hall daily and urging com mission members to- lree-nominate him.
 One of the lending pastors of the city called on Commissioner Dickson to put in a word for Bowen.
 q have never before wanted to be a city commissioner" the pastor said, ''but now I wish I could be the whole for just five minutes. l would unanimously nominate Lewis Bowen for reelection on the park board and would maintain this posi- ton until his reelection was assured"
 City hall observers look for one of the largest crowds on record to attend the park boards next meeting, in view of the strong probability that another lavish display of verbal fireworks will be touched off.

WAR IS UNDER WAY
 ON ARGENTINE ANT
Use Of Government Formula
 Said To Be Highly Effective

A city-wide fight against the Ar genuine ant was announced Saturday by Cyril R. Cunningham, entOmologist, who has been in Birmingham for Sey- eral days. The pest is prevalent in many sections of Birmingham, includ- ing Pratt City. Ensley, Fairfield, High land district, GraymOnt, WOodlawn anG East Lake. The fight is being made under the auspices of the city board of health
 The fall is the best time to combat the insect, Cunningham states, as then they will feed from the poisonous traps, while during the hot summer months, the ants will not taste the poisous pre- ferring to feed upon plant lice. and scale insects upon trees and shrUbbery.
 The best and only practical way t1 rid the district of these ants is by use of the government formula, Argentine ant poison, which was discovered by I;rnest R. Barber after many years of research in government labratory, i; is claimed.
 Although the city board of health Is making q canvass of all homes in the infected areas. killing the insects for T nominal tax, cooperation now will result in decimating the numbers of Argentine ants next summer, Cunning ham stated.

CRAWFORD SEEN AS LIKELY HEAD
 PLANNING BOARD
Will Study Ramsay Plan For Civic Center At
 Capitol Park

George Gordon Crawford, president of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail road company, loomed strong Saturday as the city commissions choice for chairman of the city planning board, to be created Tuesday to study Erskiiie Ramsays civic center plan and seek ways and means to carry it into effect.
 The entire board is to be composed of outstanding citizens. and although iA will be vested only with authority to submit recommendations, sponsors of the Ramsay proposal believe the find ings of strong board would readily win the approval of the bodies having power to take official action. f
 Mir. Cfa~ford's name in connection with the board chairnaanship was first suggested by Clyde w. Ennis, secietary of the Ensley Kiwanis club, who has taken on active part in the campaign to get the civic center plan before the public.
 Several city commissioners wanted to know Saturday if Ms. Crawford would accept the post. They were in- formed by his friends that he would undoubtedly be glad to serve if his du ties as the head of the largest industry in the district permitted. There were indications that members wuOld seek a expression from Mir. Crawford before taking final action.
 Thus, as matters stand if Mir. Craw- ford-will accept the chairmanship, it is his. If he cannot accept. it will go to some other leading man of the com munity, officials say.
 The county board of revenue has al- ready agreed to the creation of the planning board, and the city commission will act formally Tuesday. The county and city bodies will each name two and these four appointees then will meet and complete the personnel by three additional members.

WORK IS STARTED ON TEMPLE ORGAN
Instrument To Be Largest East Of Los Angeles
 California

Work was begun Saturday on the mammoth Moller pipe organ being in- stalled in the Temple theater. A: F. Lund. representative of the NJ. P. Mol. Ter Organs, Inc. is in Birmingham with a crew of men and will supervise the work on the giant instrument throughout.
 More than year was required in building the organ, Mir. Lund said Saturday. It arrived in Birmingham in three freight cars from the factory in Hagerstown. Md, and will be the largest thing of it's kind east of Los Angeles, Cal. It has 97 stops, 7.OSl pipes and hundreds of miles of cable, wires and tubing.
 It was constructed especially for the Temple theater so that it would be better adapated to the Temples acous- ties.
