LIBRARY BOARD
 WILL PICK SITE
 EARLY IN 1925
Old Tutwiler Home Prop
 erty Looms As Prob able Location

The library board will meet Friday, January 2, to act definitely towards a start on Birmingham's $650,000 pub lie library, Chairman J. w. Donnelly said Tuesday after conferring with members.
 Meanwhile, efforts will be exerted to acquire as building site the old Tut wiler home property now occupied by the board of education building, which is owned by Jefferson county. There were indications that the county board of revenue might give this site if city commission will agree to cede it DOT tion of East Twentieth street in return.
 Spurn Park Site
 The city planning board, in a report made public Monday, recommended against placing the new library in Woodrow. Wilson park, as originally planned by the library board, and sug- gested as its first choice a tract at the southwest corner of the proposed civic center in the vicinity of Woodrow Will son park. However, investigation Tues day revealed that the library board can not afford to purchase this, or any other suitable site, out of its limited funds and still give the public the kind of library building it has planned. Furthermore, this site could be acquired by condemnation.
 "We're going to get the library built quickly and built on a suitable loca- tion," MT. Donnelly said. "I feel sure that our plans in this direction will be completed early in January"
 AetiOu Te Delayed
 Mir. Donnelly and other board mem bers asked city commissioners to defer consideration of the planning boards report until after the holidays. The commissioners agreed, and the board of revenue also plans to withhold action until the first week in January.

PARKER IS CITED
 FOR CONTEMPT BY HIS FIRST WIFE
Former Auditor Must Ex- plain AlimOny
 Payments

The wives, past and present, of c. Palmer Parker, former city auditor, scored legal triumphs Tuesday. In the morning, Judge Virginia H. Mayfield, of the court of domestic relations, or dered that Parker pay his present wife and four-months-old child, $100 per month for their support, pending his appeal of Judge Mayfield's sentence in the circuit court.
 In the afternoon, Judge William NJ. Walker of the chancery division of the circuit court ordered that Parker ap- pear at 10 o'clock December 29 and show cause why he should not be pun ished for contempt of court. This or der was issued on a petition of Park CTS first wife, Mrs. Hattie M. Parker.
 The petition asserts that Parker and his first wife were divorced on Febru- ary IT, 1921, and Parker ordered to pay $5,000 alimony in installments of $50 per month.
 While failing to make payments, the petition asserts that Parker received $2,30O from the city of Birmingham, $500 from the city of Tuscaloosa, as we'll as other monies. The petition also stated that Parker was planning to make his home In Miami, Fla, where he would be out of the Jurisdiction of the court.
 Appeal Bond Made
 Judge Walker did not require Parker to make bond for his appearance, as he was placed under $1 ,O0O appeal bond by Judge Mayfield Monday afternoon.
 Judge Mayfield's order of $10O a month temporary alimony to Parker's present wife, came after strenuous attempt by Assistant City Solicitor w. FC. Jenkins, Parker's attorney, to pre- vent it. In his arguments, Mir. Jenkins said he did not believe Judge Mayfield had Jurisdiction to issue such an order.
 The original order of the court was issued Monday after Parker had been found guilty of assertion and non-sup- port. He was given the alternative of serving 12 months at hard labor or-pay- ing his wife $175 a month. An appeal was taken and Parker placed under $1 ,000 bond, pending rehearing of the case in the criminal division of the cir cult court.
 In testimony given before Judge Mayfield Tuesday morning on the hear ing for temporary alimony, Mrs. Park CT testified that her husbands income was between $500 and $600 a month, while he stated that he was earning $40 week as an employe of a public accountant in Miami.

MOUNT VERNON, Ill.,, Dec. 23. The state demanded the death pen atty in argument late today before the jury trying Lawrence M. flight, former Ina, H., clergyman, and Mrs. Elsie Sweetin, for the poison murder of her husband, Milford Sweetin.
 Counsel for Mrs. Sweetin on the other hand, appealed to the jurors to send her home to her children, but added, whatever your verdict is, she will take it with a smile, for innocence meets death with smile.'
 States Attorney Allen, opening for the state, urged the jurors not to Jet the fact that one of the defendants is a woman sway them in their decision.
 "The state is asking you to do your full duty," he said.
 Accuses Flight Robert E. Smith, attorney for Mrs. Sweetin, emphasized that the testimony showed Flight had been with Milford Sweetin frequently before his death and had opportunity to administer poison to him. Mrs. Sweetin's alleged confess sion, he said, were simply what Flight had told her to tell.
 'I am not prosecuting Lawrence M. Flight, neither am I defending Flight" said Attorney Smith in opening his ar gument. If Sweetin did die from poison there is no testimony that Elsie Sweetin had anything to do with it.
 "As to those confessions Elsie Sweetin was supposed to have made at Salem, I'll say to you that the testimony of Mrs. Sweetin herself tells you that she was trying to tell what Flight told her to tell and not what she did"
 Aunt Testifies
 Speaking of the testimony of Mrs. Francis Fisher, aunt of Mrs. Sweetin, who had testified she had warned Elsie Sweetin of the gossip about "her and the preacher" Smith said.
 'Men, if there were more women like Mrs. Francis Fisher in Ina, then Ina would be better off. God bless Mrs Fisher and women like her. She didn't go up the alley and talk. She went to Mrs. Sweetin and told what she had heard.
 ''She said Elsie cried the first time and said Mrs. Fisher didn't know what troubles she had. No. not troubles with Milford, as the old lady thought she meant, but troubles as she told you her self, with this preacher who was trying to make love to her."
 Concerning the visit to the Bonnie camp meeting after the death of Milford Sweetin, Smith said: "The state would have you believe she went there for a big time with Flight and yet she takes her three boys along. Is that reason able. men?
 'They want you men to believe she poisoned Milford and yet, within five minutes after she found he was sick, she sent for doctors.
 And they came. And what was the Elsie was in bed when the doctors left. They told her Milford was going to get better. She never got up before he died. She was in bed Flight was with Milford. How could Elsie have poisoned Wilford?"
 Each side was given seven hours for arguments and night session was or dered so the case might go to the jury tonight.
