As a member of the City Board of Education she has shown unusual executive ability, and has the respect and confidence of her associates on the board. She is making this race on her own merits and not against any special candidate, and we ask the voters of Greater Birmingham, men and women alike, to rally round Mrs.

Personally appeared before me, the undersigned authority in and for said State and County, W. R. Criimly, who being first duly sworn deposes and says that he is a member in good standing of Local No.

296 of the Carpenters and Joiners of America; that four years ago he, as a representative of the Carpenters and Joiners Union, made an investigation into the record of Dr. N. A. Barrett, who was at that time a candidate for President of the City Commission, in order to find whether or not Dr. Barrett was fair to organized labor.

As a result of that investigation it was shown conclusively that Dr. Barrett had always been fair to organized labor, and he received practically the unanimous vote of the Carpenters and Joiners. During the past four years Dr. Barrett has had only one. piece of work done, which consisted of repairing his home.

The work was done by Haley Son of West End, than whom there are no better union sympathizers in the investigation develops that Dr. Barrett's home was originally constructed in 1892. I personally know that the Carpenters Union was organized in 1899. the first local being Ensley Local No. 296, of which I was a charter member and of which I am still a member in good standing.

The next local to be organized was Local No. 75, which was organized shortly after the Ensley local. No one can investigate therecord of Dr. Barrett with reference to organized labor and not become convinced that he is absolutely friendly and fair towards the organized working people. So that's what Ra.l Batson is doing.
