 Secretary J. Paul Wilson of the Com mercial Club of Mobile, has a plan for ''Greater Mobile" which, he says, will be submitted to the board of directors of that organization at their next meet ing.
 Mss Wilson has given the plan much study and thinks, when 1t Is properly gone over by the directorate, 1t will meet their approval MT. Wilson's proposition Is to organize a land com pany with a bona f1de capital of $l0O.- GOO, the par value of each share to be slo0. After this has been accom- plished, board of directors and of engaged as manager, who will be re- ouired to devote his entire time and talent to the enterprise, and to be under the Jurisdiction of the directorate, a suitable parcel of land is to be pur- chased. He has in mind certain property containing 500 acres, well located and with electric car facilities.
 Of this land he suggests tho setting aside of fifty acres for park purposes and another fifty to be used as factory sites. The land is to be laid off in blocks, the streets to be well graded and drained, sewers and water mains put down and trees planted on the curb lines. Of the land thus squared lots are to be laid off and these sold by public subscription.
 His figures are to effect that the promoters of the company are only to receive a legitimate interest on their Investments. the other profits to be de. voted to establishing manufacturing en- terprises in which residents of the ad- dition are to be offered lucrative em- pioyment at fair salaries.
 The fpian has already met the ap- proval of q number of monied men here and Mir. Wilson thinks. with endorse ment of the Commercial Club directo- rate, 1t can be made a success and Mobile become thereby enriched in m excellent suburb.
