OPPORTUNITY FOR ALABAMA

The preparedness programme is des- tined to prove blessing to Alabama, in the opinion of Washington students of the situation. Those more deeply inter- ested in the welfare of the state are dreaming of future development on an enormous scale-and are preparing to get unusually busy. At first blush all ore producing companies will profit For if their ware is not used in the actual con- struction of batt1eships, it will go to those consumers now buying of com panies the production of which must be requisitioned by the government Ala bama coal has been proved by actual test to be entirely worthy for the propel1ing of cruisers. The unprecedented demand for all production will encourage, it is be- Eeved, the expansion of southern indus tries, and induce the constructioin of plants and furnaces for the manufacture of armor plate, steel shells and other fin ished products of all descriptions
 Engineers of the government are al- ready, it is indicated, giving close study to the geographical position and produc- tlv1ty of the various states and sections of the country, and the representatives of such states and sections are already preparing to reveal the value of the re- spective communities. This subject, from a big and permanent rather than a po- Htical and ephemeral standpoint, is re- garded as the most important--most preg- nant with opportunity-conf the na tiOn today

 But the above are destined to be simply the visible and outward show of pre- paredness." The example of Germany in becoming independent of all other nations is going to be followed The United States intends to prepare in order that when emergency comes, it can present to it's foes a magnificent navy, an excel lently equipped standing army bubbling over with patriotic pride, and at the same time present a condition of independence, one in which it can produce food for the consumption of it's soldiers and sailors and citizens, produce cannon and shell in abundance and sufficient gunpowder with which to withstand a siege of countless years.
 WHAT GERMANY TEACHES
 And thus in the opinion of students of the situation, that section of the country blessed by nature with resources, and by providence with spirit of determinatio to .'go after and demand it's share of business,' is destined to reap immeas- urable benefits. Latent power permitted for thousands of years to run to waste will of necessity be utilized. Electrical furnaces for the manufacture of cannon and shell and all other necessary finished products will of necessity be constructed Plants for the filching of nitrogen from the atmosphere and it's chemical trans mutation into fertilizer and gunpowder must of necessity be erected.
 All of. the above, this country, in emu lation of the example of Germany, is pre- pairing to do. For the lesson of one coun- try as result of it's rorethought. and the intelligence and aggressiveness of it's people, has been mastered and will be applied.
 When the programme in it's entirety has been adopted, it will in all probability be the function of the Secretary of War to select a site or sites for the construc- ton of the necessary plants. The selec- tion will be made without prejudice or po- litical bias. That state or that section which possesses the resources will be re- warded It is considered certain that the secretary would hesitate to recommend the expenditure of the necessarily enor- nous sums on the Canadian border. For that border is now in easy access of Eng land, Of that country which in future years will own and govern Canada On the Atlantic coast equipment will be in danger of the long-reaching guns of bel hgerent vessels, or or troops should a landing be effected. The same is true of the Pacific coast It is reasonable, therefore, to believe that central-south- ern or centralwestern site in close prox- unity to abundant unfinished products in touch with navigable streams, will be chosen.
 Alamaha, of course along with many other states, will make-press-its claim. It has to offer iron ore in plenty, fertile soil excellent climate, more water power, developed and undeveloped, than is pos sessed by any other state or group of states-and strategical position.
