FARMERS OF ALABAMA
IN LOAN ASSOCIATION

ADMISSION, Ala, Feb. 3.--About
twenty farmers of the Piedmont section
of Calhoun county met Saturday and
organized a farm loan association, which
will enable the members to borrow
money from one of the recently estab-
hshed farm loan banks.
1t is understood that this organization
is looked upon as the nucleus of a
larger association, to include all the
farmers in Calhoun county who wish
to take advantage of the government
farm loan proposition.
L. G. Prentice, county demonstration
agent, was instrumental in organizing
the Piedmont association, and James
Keith, Jr., vice president of the Annls-
ton City National bank, will be the lead
er in organizing the larger county as
ISOLATION. 1t is believed that one large
association in the county will be pro-
ductive of more beneficial results than
several small and independent associa-
tions.

ROME READY WITH
STRONG ARGUMENT
FOR ARMOR PLANT
Brief Sets Forth Convincing
Facts, Supported by Recog-
nized Authorities, as to Why
Hill City Should be Selected

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 4.-Rest-
ing their claims upon facts supported
by recognized authorities, the Rome
chamber of commerce has prepared an
Illuminating brief. setting forth rea-
sons why the Hill City should be Sc
lected for the location for the federal
armor plant. Copies of the brief were
today delivered to Senators Smith and
Hardwick, who, in company with Con-
gresham Gordon Lee, will be present
ed TO the armor plate board upon its
return from West Virginia.
The brief was written by Attorney
Seaborn Wright with the aid of Homer
McClatchey, president of the Rome
chamber of commerce. 1t deals with
every phase of the situation.
Agreeing with the navy department
that protection in time of war should
be the paramount issue in the location
of the plant, the brief fully discusses
this question as it relates to the stra-
getic location Of Rome. Concerning this
point recitation is made that Rome is
located in the dip of the Appalachian
mountains between the Blue Ridge and
Cumberland. From it's high elevation
it is from 100 miles from the Atlantic
and gulf coasts protected by tier after
tier of ranges running parallel with
the coast line. The decisive battles of
Sherman from Rome to Atlanta.
From this dip in the mountain run
the trunk lines of three great southern
railroads from north and south, and all
lines of the Dixie highway converge at
a short distance above Rome and pass
through the city to points on the At
lantic and gulf coasts. The army posts
at Chickamauga and 9tlanta are within
sixty-five and seventy miles, respec-
lively, of Rome.
Concerning transportation and labor
the brief recites that Rome is located
in the center of a triangle with three
great industrial cities of Atlanta, Bir
mingham and Chattanooga in the angles
each of short and almost equal distance
from the city. g..
1t is contended that in broad sense
Rome has combined the transportation
facilities of these three centers. The
population of these cities, not to men,
tion the tens of thousands of Americans
living in the hills around Rome, furnish
ample guarantee that there will be
abundant labor at all times.
Great stress is laid upon che use of
thermo-electric power in the production
of pig iron and steel Cheap electric
energy for the immediate use and the
existence of great undeveloped water
power in close proximity to the armor
plant should be given much weight,
according to the contention of the Ro-
mans. In support of this contention
there are numerous citations from ex-
perts as to the value and Importance OF
electricity in all metalurgical processes.
The following concrete proposition
concerning cheap electricity is offered:
"All electric power required by the
plant at 1-2 mills per kilowatt per hour.
There is now avails.ble as much as $4,000
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1917-02-06

horsepower at Rome, and should an I'M
usual large amount of power be RE-
Quired an even cheaper rate will be
given"
In connection with this offer atten-
tion is invited to the report of Major H.
d. Ferguson of the army engineer corps,
giving in detail the undeveloped water
power of the Etowah, Oostanaula and
Coosa rivers, the possible uses of this
power by the government and the open
ing of the Coosa and Alabama rivers for
deep water navigation from Rome to the
gulf.
Respecting the question of iron ore,
the brief says:
ut is contended that southern ore has
never been used in making armor plate
and therefore there is a doubt as to its
fitness for such use. We respectfully
submit that the question should be set
tied definitely before the board finally To-
Gates the plant. If arnfor plate cannot

Manufacture of Japan'S Ma

if Food Law Applies

Information regarding the probable
extension to Hawaii of the food con,

the use of rice in the manufacture
of sake. is not bothering the Japanese
brewers, according to II. Tsurushima,
president of the Hawaii Seishu Kwai-
sha. and A. Sumida, president Of HO-
nolulu Japanese Sake Brewing Co.
Both Mr.. Tsurushima and Mr.. SUI
mida say that they are prepared to
discontinue the manufacture Of sake,
if the law becomes operative here.
II is true, they admitted, that the
Japanese people in Hawaii will be de-
priyed of their national drink. but If
President Wilson deems it best to
prohibited the use Of rice, imported or
domestic. in the manufacture Of liQ'
uor, or intoxicating beverages, then
this mandate must be obeyed, they
add.
Tsurushima. who says he has thor
rughly studied the growing OF rice,
declared this morning that, while the
price o. rice has increased, rice in
Honolulu today is more plentiful than
before.
Tsurushima emphasizes the fact
that, in his belief sake should no:
be classed as a distilled beverage.
According to the present laws. he con
tinued. the sake dealers, and there are
many Of them, are paying the inter
nal revenue office, a tax generally
called wine tax" He believes that
in this way there will be some spe-
cial provision made for the allowance
of the use of rice in the manufacture
of sake in Hawaii.
According to reports submitted to
the food commission, several hundred
tons of rice are being used in Ha-
XaH each month for the manufac-
