Ship Building at Mobile

ne announcement in The Age-1eralC or the perfection of plans for a mammoth shlponhding plant at Mobile is the most important event in the industrial affairs of the Gulf City that has taken place in re- cent years, said prominent citizen Hho mas Ions been an enthusiast over the ad- Vantages of Mobile for such an enterprise
 It means much to Birmingham ss well as to Mobile, for it will give an added outiet Tor the iron and steel products of thls district It will also mean an armor piate plant either here or at Mobile in the near future, for there can be no ques- ton as to near relationship between the facilities for building modern snips and the construction of naval vessels. and il pehooves Mobile and Birmingham tc unite their efforts toward securing such a plant.
 The opening of the Warrior will ren- der 1t possible for Birmingham l. deliver materials for all steel-clad vessels at Mo bile cheaper than can be done elsewhere at tidewater in the United States. This enterprise marks the opening of another era Of progress for Birmingham and Mo bile, which should bring the two cities into closer ties Of business friendship and business activity than has ever before ex- isted."

Germany's Reply

Germany plays for time, and that was what Washington expected.
 The reply to President Wilson's note after the sinking of the Lusitania is conciliatory in tone, but as had been indicated the German foreign office defers a "direct answer to the ques- tions raised by the Washington gov ernment pending a further exchange of views"
 Diplomacy is often long drawn out In this case it may be several weeks yet before questions at issue approach a settlement. Germany's note ex- presses regret for injuries sustained by Americans as a result of sub marine and aeroplane attacks and of fers to pay compensation in cases in which Germany is found to be in the wrong" The attack on the Cushing
 
 and the Gulflight were unintentional, so the German foreign office declares.
 Germany disavows any intention to attack armless neutral craft and of fers to refer doubtful cases to The Hague for a decision.
 When the American note was first delivered to the foreign minister in Berlin there was a feeling in some circles that Germany would be defiant and would force this country to as sume a warlike attitude; but in view of the situation the German reply is in substance what officials in Wash ington imagined it would be. Presi- dent Wilson has made a patriotic and resolute beginning in his demands and warnings and he will be able to conduct diplomatic correspondence in way that will maintain the honor and dignity of this country and at the same time avert hostile demonstra- tions.
 The President has all the backbone that anyone could expect of the head of great nation and at the same time his poise is ever in evidence. Certain it is that no European war cloud is hanging over the United States. There is every reason to believe that this country will remain neutral to the end.

WONDERFUL MOUNT RAINIER

Asabel Curtis in Lesies.
 The Mount Rainier National park is one of the most interesting of these great playgrounds. The central portion of the park is occupied by the volcano rising IA. 4.40S feet above the sea, which reaches nearly to it's base-the second highest peak in the United States. Like the other vol canic peaks of the Cascades. Rainier sets on top of a well-defined mountain range that was in existence before the volcano was born. Rainier is a great cinder cone with it's summit so far above the melting point of snow that it becomes the source of the largest glacier system in the United States, there being more than 40 miles of moving ice on the mountain. This system Is comprised of more than 20 beau- tiful ice streams from three to seven miles in length. These form near the summit and flow outward from a com mon center until they reach point far below the normal snow line. where the accumulated snows melt. The slopes of the mountain are very steep and these glaciers have a rapid movement which reaches its maximum on the warmest summer days when the ice moves nearly an inch an hour. By this rapid move- ment the ice streams cut deep canyons for themselves. and, flowing here with only
