NEED DOUBLE TRACK
TO HANDLE TRAFFIC

That it is only a question of time until
the Southern Railway company's lines
will be double-tracked all the way into
Washington from Birmingham, was the
statement of Samuel Fl. Hardwick, pas
senger traffic manager of the Southern
prior to his departure for Washington last
night.
The heavy traffic that is continually
moving both north and south argues that
double trackage arrangement is abso-
lutely necessary said Mr. Hardwick.
I'VE have now about 200 miles of double
track out of the 800 miles to Washing
ton. This enables us to handle our i'm
mense traffic great deal better than
formerly. However, the rapid increases
make it imperative that double tracks be
constructed. We could then handle a
greater volume of traffic and accidents
and delays would be reducted to the
smallest extent.
1.-THE Southern railway cannot, as a
matter Of course. expect to make such a
move for some time. The money involved
would run into the millions and earnings
must be greater before this plan is dis
cussed. However, the double tracking Of
our lines will come and that at no dis
tant date"

Lyons also arrested Guy Taylor. white

negro took his car about II o'clock
Monday night and with some Of his
friends started for a Joy ride as cele-
bratlon of Jack Johnson's victory at
Reno. The negro got out from town
several miles and the car broke down.
Then they came back to town and stole

to town. They got to running the In
