NATIONAL FIGHT FOR WATER RATES Birmingham Will Be Repre- scented at Meeting in
 St. Louis

Waterways is one of the subjects that will be discussed at the annual convention of the Cha mber of Commerce of the Uni ted States, which will be held in St Louis, April g and 30 and May 1, and Birmi ngham will have a representative de,egs ton to participate in the discus sion
 , Tn. Chamber Iof Commerce which is a member of the United States body, and the Warrior development committee, are arranging to send representatives to the convention.
 One of the resolutions proposed for adoption by the Convention, Recommends that the federal congress enact legislation either creating a serarate department of tra ansporta tion, or creating a separate bu- reau in the department of commerce. which shall have Jurisdiction to supervise and regulate water transportation; the interstate commerce commission should have enlarged Jurisdiction over rail rates and water rates, under such mandatory terms of law as shall compel the commits sion so to adjust the rates by rail and by water as to enable boat lines to earn fair profit and to co-exist with com petitive rail lines"
 This is a subject of vital interest to RImingha at the present time when every possible effort is being made to develop the Warrior river as trans portaton artery. To make Warrior trans portation profitable there must be some arrangements for interchange of freight between the r.ver and the railroads.
 The local delegates will consider the proposal in the above light.
