The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-11-12
Robert JemisOn, Jr., Heard


 Robert Jemison, Jr., was given an opportunity to tell of the dream and creation of Corey, its growth, and to picture its future. Following his de- scription he stated, in answer to ques- tions, that the Birmingham Southern was tie only railroad or the district which had displayed any spirit of CO., operation with Corey and that, in his opinion, the denial of the Birmingham Southern the right to participate in the joint tariff agreement was a rank discrimination. He stated that the high CT rate on freight shipments which the merchants of Corey were compelled to pay because to reach a trunk line 1t was necessary for them to use the Br- mingham Southern. not only handi- capped the merchants in their business but prevented other merchants and cer- tain industries from settling in Corey. He named several industrial concerns which would have settled in the new city but for the higher rate which they would be compelled to pay on freight.
 On cross examination he stated in answer to questions that the Tennes- see company, while, at one time, 1t did hold an option on the greater part of the territory of Corey, which was la ter surrendered, had nothing to do with the settlement of Corey, and had never had voice in its policy or gov crnment. He denied StrenuouSly that Corey was built ct the suggestion Of President Crawford of the Tennessee company He stated that the BirmIng ham Southern had obtained its right of way into Corey at the expense of about $1100 per acre, which, ne ad- mitted, was cheap. end denied that trunk lines had been dscriminated against by not being permitted to enter Corey He stated that even yet the trunk lines might make it so inter estng to us that they would be per- mitted to enter" He testified that be- fore the Birmingham Southern was given an opportunity to purchase a right of way into Corey that the plans for the city were shown to officials of trunk limos, among the number being l.. Sevier.
 When asked who are the directors of the Corey Land company. the first name he mentioned was that of Lee Bradley. Walker Percy, conducting the defonse for the Birmingham Southern stated immediately after that MT. Brad ley was attorney for tile Seaboard, the Louisville and Nashville. the Southern and possibly other railroads.
 The second director of Corey men toned by MT. Jemison was Walker Percy and there was considerable laughter when someone mentioned his connection with the Tennessee company
