ATTALLA TO PAVE
 OVER B BLOCKS
Some Decision In Legal
 Tangle Is Expected Soon
(Gadsden Bureau)

GADSDEN, Ala, July 15.-Under a tentative agreement reached at a meet ing of the Attalla council Monday night the way will soon be clear to pave over 35 blocks in the main business and residence sections of that city, the contractors having consented to an extension of the contract until all legal obstacles can be removed. The plan is to go into circuit court and ask for a speedy consideration of the petition of 34 property owners for an injunction against the proposed improvement and the demurrers filed by the city. If the latter are sustained the work will nro- ceed, regardless of further court pro ceedings, but if the petition is granted the court will be asked to point out the legal flaws so that they may he cured in an amended ordinance.
 War On Hooded Order-The city council Tuesday was called upon. in resolutions adopted by the executive board of the Axis club to bar from em. ployment as city official or emplove any member of a hooded order" The resolutions declare that the city is rest. ing under the worse stigma ever placed upon it in the kid-apping and punish ment of J.
