stocked by the government it will in 3
few years be one of the greatest fishing
resorts in the country.
More than half of the 100000 of
shares of capital stock in the Port OF
Birmingham corporation offered the
public at the present time has been
subscribed and the committee feels con
fident that the entire amount will be
in hand by the end of this week. Speak
ing of the matter yesterday, j. r. Nc
Wane, chairman of the Warrior devel-
opment committee spoke most enthus-
iastically.
THE people are ready for the Port
of Birmingham company" said J. r
McWane, chairman of the Warrior river
development committee. The commit
tees soliciting subscriptions to the cap
ital stock are meeting with encourage
ment everywhere and it is only a ques-
ton of getting to the people with the
proposition.
LAS a rule in soliciting subscriptions
clined to make the amount less than
the committee had in mind as the prop
err amount, but we have been very
much gratified to find that some of the
subscribers have been willing to dc
several times as much as was expected
of them. In other words, the business
community has been thinking and talk
ing about this thing SO long that many
business men know more about the
possibilities of water transportation
than the members of the committee
themselves.

UPBUILDING OF CITY

TN some cases men who were not in
position to state definitely what the
amount would be have been kind
enough to name figure which they
would recommend This encourages
committee. Nothing will kill the spirit
of men who are working for the up
building OF the city quicker than for
other men. who should be no less in
terested, to postpone the matter from
time to time in an indefinite way This
does not refer to those who have real
reasons, but to those who might have
real reasons, but to those who might
just as well settle it now as later.
THE best boosters of our courage arr
those who stop us on the street and say
they want to have a part in the enter
prise. The committee hopes to wind up
the job this week, and if the start we
have made in getting one-half the to-
tai amount the first few days is any
proof of the results we feel that we
are not going to be disappointed. Bir-
mingham is really interested i'll this
matter. and when birmingham makes
up her mind, the thing is going to be
done.
Gen. Andrew jackson was famolf
for his determination. The story is
told Of party visiting his old home
the Hermitage, near Nashville. and
asking an old negro servant on the
place about some of the generals char
acteristics. He said, John, | under
stand the general swore occasionally
Yes said the negro. he sho' did, and
when the general got mad it was time
for white folks to keep quiet and Mig
gers to git out de way. Well SAID
the stranger, Do you suppose, being
such swearer, he went to heaven whor
he died? L don't know boss was
the reply, but if de general made III
his mind to go to heaven he sho' went

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Glaring HEADLIGHTS

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
The campaign, which the commissioner
of public safety predicts will be vigor-
ously waged against the use of glaring
headlights of automobiles, is one which
will be supported by every sound think
ing citizen
1t is to be hoped that this restriction
will also be placed on the use, within
the city limits, of the brilliant headlights
Of the trolley cars. Most automobi,e div
ers have sufficient sense of decency to
dim their lights when approaching another
car, but the motormen ignores other
traffic and makes a practice OF rising
both lights when running on city streets.
The glare from the bright light dazzles j
driver so much that passing a car on
narrow street is attended with consio-
cradle danger. G. n WILEY.

DEVASTATED AREAS

abroad the coming of peace opened
pareas unbelievablv devastated, par
ticularlv in the countries in eastern Eu-
rope Such was the MAGNITUDE of the
/ task of administering relief that for
awhile the Red Cross feared that the
! funds on hand would be insufficient to
last until this November. The effective
work of those directly in charge of the
activities enabled the Red Cross to wind
up more rapidly than had been antici-
rated that portion of the work which
was susceptible Of being Terminated and
for which appropriations had been M de
on wartime scale. AS result there
We're manv savines from appropriations
rrade, and the renorts for the month OF
Septerher show that for the corning year
approximately si4 SO 600 VIII remain and
be available out of the $4,000 mn turned
over by the war council on February 2s
This sum of s,4 80 nOo win be added to
the proceeds of the campaign, which be-
gins next week.
THE Red Cross now complete its work
for our sold ers and their families and
round out its wartime programme. In
Europe the needs for aid are simply
, without limit. The larger needs can only
i be met by the governments. but there is
an imperative call for emergency relief
where the processes of government are
too slow to aid those suffering acute af-
Fiction. The sum now asked for by the
Red Cross will enable this great orean-
zation to do a well proportioned piece
! of relief work abroad carry out at
home its activities planned for the new
year and furnished proper reserves to
provide for emergencies or disasters.
THE American people who have re-
sponded so whole heartedly and upon
such magnificent scale to past appeals
of the Ned Cross will. I am sure. be
eager again to avail themselves during
the coming week of the opportunity to
enlist themselves ON the rolls of the Red
Cross and thereby rededicate the efforts

statement why he was willing to make

THE members of these soliciting
committees are all busy men, They are
neglecting their own interests during
this campaign to do this work They
are not doing it because they have
any selfish motives, but they are do
ing it for the good of Birmingham.
1T is always temptation, when we
are approached on a matter of this
kind to put it off for decision for some
future time. 1t is matter of consult
ing a business associate. or referring
it to a board of directors. This is all
good business and these things have
to be done, but the committee is going
TO make a special request of every
body to do all they can to act on the
proposition promptly so we can get it
