cials today, Representative Byrnes
announced that an order will be is
sued by the Southern Railway revok-
ing it's recent order prohibiting the
use of it's platforms for the weighing
and marking of cotton by shippers.
The original order was issued be-
cause of the liability of the railroad
for cotton left on platforms and be-
cause of the congestion it caused.
But in view of the representations of
Mr.. Byrnes that the enforcement of
the order would necessitate the con-
struction of additional platforms in
every little town on the Southern, at
a time when materials are so eXpen-
sive and labor so scarce, the railway
officials consented to revoke the or
der, therefore the farmers will be
permitted to unload their cotton on
railway depot platforms as hereto
