By DOLLY DALRYMpLE

hen war wrings the heart of the world; when the brotherhood of na- tions locks fierce arms in the death struggle of battle; when the whole earth rocks with the clash of blows and the crash of the conflict; while Europe runs red with blood and her shores are lapped by crimson seas, we turn our minds toward the beginning or the end-that end which with the terms laid down by the allies to Aus ,ria and Turkey and other nations lighting against us-which means that IT our terms are not accepted then we'll go Crashing Through to Berlin,s fol- lowing the title of the interesting war play now being shown at the Alacazar.

 Judging the situation from the military map, the crisis on the bat tleffe1d is at hand. The Germans have come to the realization that the Foch military machine Is the master of the German machine.
 Therefore, they are giving ground everywhere before it-seeking their border line In order to prevent be- ing crushed.

 The reasons of MT. Doughty for urr ing the selection of Tuscaloosa instead Of Cordova for the transfer point was set forth in the following letter to Charles IA Harold, secretary manager of the Birmingham Civic association.
 Dear Sir: Your asso ,iation has been extremely active in elcouraging the use of the Warrior river as a means of transportation for the products of and consumed by this district.
 Tho use of the Warrior river by Bir- mingham has generally been associated with the proposition to combine tho rail and water facilities at or near Cor dova. Mir Sanders has given certain assurances to Birmingham business men in respect to facilities to be es- tablished on the river. Mir. Brent has held conference with the traffic rep resentative In respect to rates Tho most significant statement made by him was that Birmingham would be expect ed to furnish the terminals; this very clearly sets out the obligations of this and there Is no escaping the responsibility. if Birmingham is to enjoy whatever may accrue from ,afe a

 T am inclined to think that the es- tablishment of facilities at Cordova would be a mistake, in the face of the proposed expenditure at Tuscaloosa. and further that facilities to be ef- hcient would very seriously interfere with the present coal loading arrange ment and no. only this. but the mile age from Tuscaloosa to Birmingham via the Alabama Great Southern is 55 4 and via the Louisville and Nashville 60 miles, while the mileage from Cordova to Birmingham Is 32.3 yet In order to use the railroad 25.1 less at Cordova than at Tuscaloosa, your river trans portation must be increased over 60 miles. and to me it would seem much preferable to negotiate for the use of the Tuscaloosa terminals on this &C., count. leaving the upper stretches of the river for heavy freight transporta- tion, which must be developed to a considerable extent, if the use of the river is going to be a success Yours very truly.
