JACKSON HIGHWAY
 MEETING SEPT. 23
Permanent Organization of Body Will Be Perfected
 at Nashville

l. .H
 Announcement was made yesterday that the meeting for completion of or sanitation of the Jackson Highway as- sociation in Nashville has been set fo, September 23 and 24, and arrangements are being made by the local Chamber of commerce and Good Roads association to have large representation present at the convention from Alabama.
 No movement more comprehensive II, us scope or more far-reaching in ifs benefits has recently been promulgated II Is said than that set on foot bv th. Jackson Highway association at it's first organization meeting held in Bir- mingham three weeks ago. This meeting was called for the purpose of perfecting an organization to promote the building of national highway from the great lakes to the Gulf of Mexico in honor of President Andrew Jackson. and after the election of officers the newly formed highway association set about the consummation of the plans for rout- ing the proposed road and also deter- mined to hold a convention for the pur- pose of arousing interest in the high
 - tween competitive routes.
 At Nashville 1t is the purpose of those In charge of the affairs of the highway association to consider bids for the ye rious routes which will be put forward by the delegates from the numerous sec tons of the country through which the highway will likely pass.
 The Idea of the Jackson highway was conceived about five years ago by the Daughters of 1872. and at that time an organization was perfected for the pur- pose of promoting highway from Chi cago to New Orleans. The work prog ressed slowly but steadily until three weeks ago when the organization meet ing was called In Birmingham. al which time representatives from Louis ville. Nashville. Birmingham Montg ont cry Mobile Gulfport, New Orleans and other places met and completed the or ganization of the above named Jack son Highway association.
 It is proposed to construct two branches of the highway north of Louis- ville, one to extend northwest to Chi cago, the other to run northea st through Ohio to Buffalo. N. Y. The first named route has practically been de- cided upon by the representatives from that section, while the route from Buff falo to Louisville remains to be selected at the coming meeting. The route from Louisville to Nashville has also been settled. yet the remainder of the rout e from Nashville to New Orleans Is like wise to be determined at the Nashville convention in September.
 The meeting in Nashville will be held under the auspices of the Nashville Commercial club and the newly organ ized automobile association and the management assures every delega ton attending the convention a square deal in the consideration of the bids for tho routes. No cut and dried schemes will be allowed and the various sections of the route will be selected according to their merits. The management has asked the railroads of the south for reduced rates to the convention and 1t Is quite probable that the requests will be granted. These rates will be in effect as far south as New Orleans
