We have finished a cut on the excava- tion contract of the Birmingham Motor Speedway company 300 feet long and 1oC feet wide,' said A. T. Newell. who has the contract for the excavation of the speedway now being built around the lake of the Birmingham Motor and Country club.
 For the past week we have had a crew of 90 double teams and about 75 men working. Saturday morning an ad- ditional outfit consisting of more than 50 head of mules and several carloads of grading equipment will arrive over the Louisville and Nashville This new equipment will be rushed to the speedway grounds and put to work immediately.
 We have established a construction camp, consisting of tents for sleeping and eating and shelter for the mules. The work is progressing nicely and 1 hope to have the contract completed within three months. l have noticed an unusual amount of interest in the construction of the speedway since we have commenced work. Scores of automobiles visit the grounds daily to catch a glimpse of the work being done. The drive out is beau tiful and the scenery of the lake sur rounded by the mountains is unsurpassed. who may be skeptical can witness the work in progress any day they wish to go out

The Rural Credits Bill

Within the past few years the pub lie has heard much of the need of rural credit legislation, and now such legislation is about to be consum- mated.
 The administration programme for congressional action this spring contains the rural credit measure President Wilson regards it next 1T importance to the federal reserve sys- tenn, so far as great economic or busi- ness questions go, and it is believed that nearly all members of Congress are heartily in favor of it.
 A bill to establish twelve regional land mortgage banks has just beer perfected by the House banking com imittee and will be urged for passage next week. The system is modelled on lines similar to the rural credits as sociations of European countries where it has been a great boon to the farmer of small borrowing resources And the proposed farm loan associa tion, through which the land mort gage regional banks are to advance money at low rate of interest to ths thousands in need of it, will be ol far-reaching benefit.
 Thirty years ago the farms in thu grain growing west were heavil! mortgaged and the interest rate wa often exorbitant.

Asquith and His Cabinet

Since the beginning of the war there has been some friction among leaders of the German government and oc- casionally among members of the French cabinet, but hardly a month has passed that crisis has not de- veloped in the British cabinet But fortunately for the entente, however, Premier Asquith has been able to hold on.
 Many observers thought that the recent crisis might result in MT. As quith's resigning. Partisans of David Lloyd-George have been working to have that able radical supplant the man who has held the premiership longer than any of his predecessors and who has won the sincere admira- tion of the British people. But with all Lloyd-G George's boldness, brilliance and political resourcefulness, he does not measure up in capacity for deal ing with vexing and mighty problems of state to Asquith, always calm and resolute.
 For time critics contended that MT. Asquith's policy in relation to the war was not wide enough, but as the premier of Great Britain and as the statesman-leader of the allies, he has I been as potent as he has been self effacing. No man in England could have inspired more confidence. And now that he has won in this latest cab inet clash, the public has probably seen the last of parliamentary turmoil while the war is in progress.
