SIX MEN ARE KILLED
EXPLORING OLD MINE
Black Damp in Unused Heading
of Shaft Believed Cause of
Mems Deaths.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. June six
white miners were killed early last
night in a mine accident at Piper.
Ala. reports to the Little Cahaha
Coal Co, owner of the mine here, said.
Death is believed to have been
caused by an accumulation of black
damp in an unused heading of the
mine, which the six men were ex-
ploring. There was no explosion.
The dead are: Fred Bashman, John
Wright, L. II. Horton, Steve Scott,
Jeff Warren and Eli Lucas, all resi-
dents of Piper.
Heading Sealed for Fire.
The heading where the men met
death had been sealed for two months
following a fire in March. 1t was
opened Sunday and six men went in
to see if the fire was out. Attempts
had been made to ventilate the shaft
and when the men went in, officials
believed the heading was safe.
About an hour after the exploring
party entered, other miners followed
The bodies of the six men were found
lying about 700 yards from the en-
trance to the heading.
When the second party entered and
found the body of one of the miners,
rescue parties were formed and work
ed in relays without further danger
until all the bodies had been recovered
at midnight.
The mine is known as Piper mine,
No. 2, and is located near Piper, in
Bibb County, about as miles south of
Birmingham. The Little Cahaba Coal
Co. is owned by Memphis and Ala
bama interests.

PUBLIC SCHOOL LAW
OF OREGON INVALID
Supreme Court Holds State
Cannot Exclude Private
Institutions.
b. the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
Oregon lost in the Supreme Court
today its fight 10 compel children to
attend public schools.
The court held that the States in
enforcing compulsory education laws,
cannot require the attendance of chill
dren in public schools, to the exclu-
sion of private or parochial schools.
The Oregon compulsory education
law, requiring children between the
ages of and Is to attend public
schools, therefore was declared in
valid.
The decision had been awaited with
unusual interest because of the pc
culiar circumstances surrounding the
litigation, and because many other
States have compulsory education
laws. The Oregon law was attacked
by the Society of the Sisters of the
Holy Names of Jesus and Mary and
the Hill Military Academy. Through
out the controversy there were many
who charged that the statute had
been inspired by the ku Klux Klan.
The court held that the States, in
enforcing compulsory education laws,
cannot require the attendance of chill
dren in public schools.
Certainly there is nothing in the
present record to indicate that they
have failed to discharge their obliga-
tions to patrons, students or the
state" the court contended. And
there are no peculiar circumstances
or present emergencies which demand
extraordinary measures relative to
primary education.
We think it entirely plain that the
act of 1922 unreasonably interferes
with the liberty of parents and
guardians to direct the upbringing
and education of children under their
control.
LAS often heretofore pointed out,
rights guaranteed by the Constitution
may not be abridged by legislation
which has no reasonable relation to
some purpose within the competency
of the state.
Justice McReynolds, in delivering
the opinion for the court, said the
inevitable practical result of enforc-
ing the Oregon act would be destruc-
ton of the parochial schools and all
other private primary schools which
are engaged in kind of undertaking
not inherently harmful, but long re-
garded as useful and meritorious.
''The fundamental theory of liber-
ty upon which all governments in this
Union repose excludes any general
power of the State to standardize its
children by forcing them to accept in
structionS from public teachers only.
THE child is not the mere creature
of the State; those who nurture him
and direct his destiny have the right,
coupled with the high duty, to rec
og1iize and prepare him for additional
obligations"

MOVE TO COMBAT
BIGGER RUM FLEET
Ten Coast Guard Boats Near
Miami to Check Increased
Operations in South.

The Government is prepared to
transfer their major activities to
Southeastern waters
James Z. Jones, assistant prohibi-
ton commissioner. on his return to-
day from a survey in Florida, said
conditions still were bad. but that 10
Coast Guard boats had been placed
near Miami to combat smuggling.
Mr.. Jones main visits were to
Miami and Tampa, where he obtained
a vivid picture of conditions from the
chiefs of police, judges and other en-
forcement officers.
Some increase in the activities of
rum runners was found, but this was
to be expected, Mr.. Jones explained
since the Coast Guard had bottled up
their channels to the north.
Fishermen operating between the
southeast coast of Florida and Bim-
mi. an island of the Bahama group,
about 90 miles off shore, were said
by the assistant commissioner to be
landing more liquor in Florida at
the present time than any other
source i'll the scores of illicit supply
depots in Cuba, the Bahamas and the
Florida Keys.
Hope for improvement in enforce
ment of the dry law in Florida was
seen by Mr.. Jones through better CO.
operation on the part OF local peace
officers, who We're elected after fights
in which prohibition was an issue.

DEATH IN HOSPITAL
FOUND ACCIDENTAL
Coroner's Jury Exonerates
Attendants Who Gave
Woman Wrong Injection.

Accidental death was the verdict Of
a coroner's jury in the case of Mrs.
Julia Louise Eaton of Arlington, Va.
who died Friday night at Georgetown
Hospital as the result of wrong in
lection of medicine during an X-ray
examination two weeks previously.
The coroner's jury did not attempt
to fix responsibility, but found in the
verdict that the entire tragic situation
was produced entirely accidentally.
Testimony was given by a number
of prominent surgeons, physicians, at
tacheS of Georgetown Hospital and
two nurses, who were in the operating
room at the time of the injection of
sodium hydroXide, which is for gen
eral external use, instead of sodium
iodide, which is a mild antiseptic for
internal use.
The testimony was that the chemi
cal symbols for hydroXide are: Ma o H
and that the symbols for iodide are
Ma l. The testimony was adduced to
show that the labels on the bottles
were by an indelible pencil. Part of
the lettering was rubbed off, so that
only the letters n 1 appeared on the
bottle before the administration of
the injection. The small a" and the
capital O" had been rubbed off and
the first part of the H" had also been
erased so that the only part of the
II" remaining looked like an Il"
Coroner J. Ramsay hewitt presided
Dr. Herbert E. Martyr, deputy coro-
ner, reporting the result of the
autopsy, said the cause of the
death was hemorrhage of the kidneys,
which was the result of the injection
of sodium hydroXide solution. The YER
dict of the jury eXonerated all con-
cerned in the accident from RESPONSE
bility in so far as criminal intent was
concerned.

condition, are chargeable with negli-
gence in allowing the streets to be
come unsafe. Unsafe conditions may
result from improper lighting as well
as from defect in the street and
the degree of lighting required viii
depend upon existing conditions In
the present case, as clouds and mist
settled in wet or damp weather about
the Yiaduct, the District was charged
with the duty of meeting this esnerg-
ency by proper and sufficient light
ing facilities. The lights are for pro-
lection on cloudy and dark nights as
we'll as moonlight nights. In other
words, lights are for night protection,
and should be of sufficient strength
and in suSh position as to meet every
ordinary requirement. The jury there
fore. was not required to pass on
the number and character of the lights
but from the evidence whether the
lighting at the time of the accident
was sufficient to -Talaseev the place rea-
sonably safe. The evidence was suf-
ficient to support the view taken by
the jury"
