Gulf States Steel company, Birmingham, opposes the application

Gulf States Steel company, Birmingham, opposes the application.
 Southern Consuming interests, inducing
 the Birmingham Civic association and he Southern Association of Steel Fabri-
 cators, make the broad claim that the
 Pittsburg passing point system is arrest ing the entire manufacturing development of the south. Southern manufacturers, in- cluding southern shipbuilders, say they cannot compete in prices with northern and eastern manufacturers because of the higher prices they must pay for steel al- though steel is produced in quantity at Birmingham.
 These manufacturers and shipyards claim they are handicapped to the extent of the arbitrary freight differential from Pittsburg to the Birmingham district, which is added on to the prices they must pay for steel from southern mines. The south, they say, should also derive the benefit of cheaper production at Birm1nS- ham. They make the point that there IS no price competition in the steel industry, since all mills adopt the f. o. b. Pittsburg price plus freight from Pittsburg to des- tination.
 1 The Birmingham Steel corporation, one iof the largest fabricating plants in the | United States, charges that it must bear some S195,000 added cost year because of fictitious freight rate from PittsbrSs This, the company claims, "is practically 1 a tax on the consumer" The Chattanoo- | ga Roofing and Foundry company says l What economic law can be called in tc 1 force us to pay an additional freight rate which does not inhere in the cost of the goods Why should we pay freight or q basing point that is 600 miles away from ! us.''
 l The contention of Pittsburg is that in | asmuch as every community must ara" | on Pittsburg for that part of their re- auirements which other points canno' supply, nearer points cannot forego the opportunity to get for their product a0
 that they can, namely, as much as Pltts-
 burg gets, and that. therefore, Pittsburg
 without exerting itself necessarily sets

Fire Damage Greater
 Than First Expected

The loss suffered by the Guarantee Shoe company in the fire of last week was much heavier than at first esti- mated, according to H. R. Forward, ad- vertising manager for this store.
 "The smoke damage was especially serious" said MT. Forward. "The fire occurred in the third floor stockroom and thousands of pairs of shoes were practically ruined by smoke. Every box must be examined, as it is smoked black and you can't tell size or stock number until the shoe is examined. Un- fortunate practically our entire fall stock was in and stored in the stock room.
 However I think the adjusters will be through by Friday and we can then arrange for disposal of this stock"

UNDERWOOD TAKES HAND

Senator Underwood, democrat, Ala
 bama, replied that so far as he could see there could be no objection even if the Saar basin were to be given to
 France outright. He reminded Senators that France and not Germany was our ally in the war;" and said that for the Senate to interfere with the Saar settle ment would be to "countenance the ef- | fort of the German armies to freeze to death the people of France"
 We should make a just peace and see that justice is done the allies" | Senator Underwood said, and we might as we'll strike the word justice , from the treaty if we propose to count 1 enance the attempt of Germany to | freeze the people of France. Only
 year ago the German army leaders or
 dered the French mines flooded, not to
 stop an army, but to freeze the peo-
 pie. Now is the time to balance the &C.,
 count I would be willing to turn the Saar basin over to France permanently to settle the bill, but is is left open for fifteen years, during which time the mines must servte the people. If we say we won't be represented on the com mission our allies will conclude that we don't approve justice, or the propo- sition that the Germans may be re- | quired to pay in full.'

Moore grabbed the ropes and White

little or no return, During the fifth
Moore shot over a hard left to the Jaw

DoBBs VS.. THE KID.

A blear-eyed bug drops a card from
somewhere in Dixie to ask who is the
better manager, Kid Elberfeld or John
ny Dobbs.
It's a matter of opinion. Elberfeld
Is a snappy, driving type OF manager,
who pushes every player to his limit
In an effort to win ball games. When
he has a pitcher who can win the Kid
win work him until he falls in his
tracks. There are no smarter baseball
men thai Elberfeld and when it comes
to getting results out of a mediocre
bunch Of material he is well up around
the crest. He's one of the best pilots
in Dixie beyond a doubt.
Dobbs Is a different type from. the
Kid. Johnny works in a quiet, digni-
fled way and is inclined to get re-
suits by taking advantage of every
situation to keep his team hustling. He
always has strict discipline on his
team, and any time an athlete gets
o~bstreperous he goes to the mat with
Dobbs, and as usual Dobbs ONE out
ahead. Dobbs takes care of his men,
always uses his pitchers in their turn
as near as possible and believes that
in keeping all of his men fit and In
shape he can get better results thar
by working one man to death.
We'd a that between Dobbs and
Elberfeld there's but little to choose. l,
all depends upon what variety of mar
you prefer. When II ONE to ability
in handling a team, Dobbs has shown
the edge in winning ~pennants, but hi
has always had a high-classN ball club
where Elberfeld has been forced tc
take a mediocre outfit.
