SEVERAL MONTHS l BEFORE BIZ POWER COMP ANY LOCATES But the Developments Will Be Conducted From Birmingham COOSA BILL WILL
 AGAIN BE PASSED Beasley Expected to Submit Measure to Assert States Right to Re
 turns From Water Power
 of Streams

That the Alabama Interstate Power Co., is preparing to establish it's general headquarters in Birmingham, a report to which effect was published in The Age Herald of yesterday Is true.
 E. L. Brown states that the company has inquired concerning 4Ooo feet of space in the Brown-Marx building, and that prices have been submitted. It Is under stood that in addition to the Brown Marx, other office buildings are being considered. The facts that President Taft has vetoed the bill which wouio have permitted immediate development of the latent power of the Coosa river ct lock No IS. and that the company lease on it's present quarters m Mont eumery does not expire until late next year, It is thought that the plans in reference to Birmingham will be deferred for at least twelve months.
 The company, as Is generally known, is preparing to expend in the develop ment of the Coosa and other Alabama streams the latent power of which is sufficient to light the south, s55,ooo, ,ooo of English syndicated capital That as Q result OI IlllS QtNtlopiiSiNf Nhte'P AAShh will be furnished everybody everywhere, and that the people Of the state will be benefited in immeasurable manner, is considered certain by well posted men in this city.
 There is no doubt but that an effort will be made in the next session of Congress to swerve President Taft from his present opinion that waterpower is the property of the government and not of the state, and in case of failure in that regard to pass the bill over his veto. The Presidents objection to the bill as formerly presented was based on the fact that no provision was made whereby the government would receive an annual toll
 Senator Johnston. who has returned from Washington. was an ardent sup porter of the bill. Yesterday he ex- pressed himself as regretfu that the measure was not signed.
 This work, when completed said he, twill result in untold good :. Alabama. When many millions are expended in harnessng the power of Alabama streams, this state will enter upon a pe- riod of marvellous prosperity Brming- hcm will grow into the largest city of the south, in my opinion"
 The action of the president in reference to the bill providing for the improve ment of the Coosa, will no doubt result in Alabama assuming an aggressive at titude In the extraordinary session of the legislature which will occur, 1t Is thought, in January, State Senator Cecil A. Beasley will submit measure in structing the attorney general to pro- ceed against the government whenever the government prepares to grab toll as result of waterpower developed in this this state. Senator Beas1ey holds that the government does not own the streams, but that the same is the prop erty of the state. That his bill will go upon it's immediate passage, is consid- cred certain.
