TO LOCATE TERMINALS

map Dt lHt ioCdiltN V | is being made and soundings of the river and the banks are under way for the purpose of ascertaining tho most suitable place for the terminals. Mai John R. Fordyce, until recently in the government service, has been retained as consulting engineer, and the committee has engaged Charles r. Wood of Wash ington as chief engineer in charge of the terminal surveys and constructions
 That the committee has acted wise ly in making it's selection is readily understood when the records of these two men are known Major Fordyce designed and built the terminals and docks at Texas City, and also the gov ernment terminals on the Mississippi river at St. Louis.
 MT. Wood is familiar with the War rior river, having beeen connected with the government work on that stream for 16 years, or during almost the en- tire period in which the lock and dam improvements were being made. lie builr the Delaware harbor refuge the Pt. Judith harbor refuge. the Cape May harbor, the breakwaters at Gloucester, Mass. New Haven. Conn, Buffalo, N. Y, Cleveland. Lorain and Ashtabula, O.. and the lightho use at Baltimore
 Major Fordyce and MT. Wood were hotE here last week for two or three days, and MT. Wood will return the lat ter part of this week to remain until the Warrior terminals are built and ready for use.
 SURVEY OF TONNAGE
 The recent survey of tonnage avail- able for the Warrior river made by the committee dscloses that there are approximately 100000 tons or 57,00o railroad cars of 30 tons each, and valued at s21,000, 900 of outgoing freight. and 200, 900 tons. or $500 rail- road cars of 30 tons each valued at about s7,000.000, of incoming freight.
 Chairman J. R. McWane of the gen. eral committee and Key Miller, chair man of the terminals and transporta- ton subcommittee. have been devot- ing a great deal of their time to the Warrior river project in the last few weeks and they are losing no oppor- tunity to push it along. Now that the engineering problem is out of the way and constructive work in sight they are interesting themselves in the mat ter Of drawing the attention of Bir- mingham shippers to the Warrior river as transportation channel
