TINT wins conteat with dynamite.

A contest was recently staged be-
tween 40 per cent dynamite and trini-
trotoluene and the latter won, says
the Scientific American. Two con
crete piers had to be blasted cut and
this gave an opportunity for a COM
paratlve test of the two explosives,
with the result that 14.9 cubic feet
of concrete were removed per pound
of INT, and only 14,1 per pound OF
dynamite.
INT is no doubt destined to be
used extensively in engineering work,
as it is less sensitive than dynamite,
but greater precautions must be taken
TO ventilate after Il shot, owing to the
large amount Of carbon monoxide
which is one of the principal products
of combustion.

Taking of Testimony
in Fealy-Obear Case
to Begin October
Crisis Cross Litigation Includes Vari-
GUS Legal Proceedings in
Different Courts

The taking of testimony in the crisis
cross Fealy -Obeari case was set by
Chancellor Locke for October I. The
trouble started some weeks ago when
Mai w. G. Obear filed bill to enjoin
DR.. L. A. Fealy, bishop of an Altrurian
society, from visiting Mrs. Obear. and
also Mrs. Obear from visiting Fealy's
office: further alleging the use of hyp-
motto influence by the bishop over his
wife, all of which led her to dissipate
her inheritance, and drive the major out
Of her house and home, refusing him
permission to see his children.
Fealy retorted with a suit for $4,000
damages for SANDER and warrant for
the arrest of George S. Obear. brother
of the ior. charging assault with in
tent to kill, the outcome of which was a
81 fine. Mrs Obear added a cross bill
to further comp.icate the affair in which
she stoutly denied her husbands allie
cations and asked for a divorce on the
grounds of cruelty, herself alleging that
the major had failed 20 support the fam
ily for five years. To this the major
answered that her allegations were false
and that he had kept the family and
was able to do so.
A recent habeas corpus Of Obear's. in
which he sought custody of the chill
dren, was denied in the civil division of
the circuit court. 1t being held that the
entire question was involved in the liti-

Want Phrase as Catchy as Best
National Advertisers Have
Made Famous

What is the value of a slogan in dol
lars and cents9 This is a subject upon
which many of the nations leading ad-
vertising writer's have exhausted vol
umes. 1t is stated in recent issue OF
one of the leading advertising journals
that shipper of a certain well-knoVn
brand of oranges valued his slogan at
no less than s1o.0oc.ooo. He declared that
his business success was founded to a
large extent upon the chosen slogan be-
cause it summed up at a glance vivid
picture of the kind OF orange he was
selling.
This is the kind of phrase the Cham
her OF Commerce is seeking in its slogan

offered for the best slogan about Biz
mngham-the kind of phrase which will

Between 500 and 500 slogans have al
ready been received at the Chamber OF
Commerce offices since the contest be-
gan August 30. They have been coming

The contest is to last until the night
of September 80, when the Judges will

ATLANTA URGED TO

Work of Marketing Bureau
Attracts Attention of Civic
Leaders of Georgia City

In Atlanta they are at last waking up
the next state. For long time they
have had the idea over there that At

south and all that it stands for. The
September number of 1.-THE City Build
err a monthly publication of the At

long story about birmingham written
by Chauncey Smith, special agent of the
Southern Bell Telephone company. that
is most complimentary to this city.
In his article. which is entitled Dir
mingham's Fine Development Work"
Mr.. Smith says More than ia, 0O0-odd
Atlantans, plus those acquired since the
last census, believe that Atlanta is a
city far superior to Birmingham in every
respect. One hundred and thirty two odd
thousand citizens of Birmingham, also
plus those acquired since the last CEN
sus being pig headed and unreasonable,
refuse to admit that Atlanta is superior
to Birmingham, claiming just contrari-
wise Among other things done by Bir-
mingham leading to this belief in its
own superiority is the work done by
the Birmingham committee on agricul-
ture and marketing, and it may be just
as well for us Atlantans to see what
Birmingham has accomplished and
whether there may not be in it some
thing that it would pay Atlanta to emu
Late
Mr.. Smith then describes at great
/ length how this committee was organ
| lied at the outbreak of the war. for the
| purpose OF increasing food production
and to provide better marketing facilities
+, for what was produced. He speaks in
detail Of the way T. Park Hay, Jr., as
sisted by patriotic Birmingham men,
went all over the state and aroused an
enthusiasm for a. general betterment of
conditions, of the cooperation by the
| telephone company, the international
| Harvester company and the railroads.
| The result has been that grain elevators
have been erected. chain of Gamer
! les installed. large potato warehouses
built and many public scales erected.
Production has increased, marketing ia
{, cilities are better, and throughout the
state there is marked feeling of con-
fidence and a desire to cooperate
1 In closing his article Mr.. Smith said
| that Memphis had already undertaken
work along the same line and that Mont
| eomery, was planning to do the same.
And for Atlanta he suggests that There
! is an old precept Be not the first by
which the new is tried. nor yet the last
/ to lay the old aside Atlanta has not
violated the first part of this precept
and it must consider seriously whether

STEEL CONSUMERS
TO HEAR HAROLD
Will Talk to Atlanta Men oD1njustice
of Pittsburg Plus Rate

Charles s. Harold, secretary OF the
Civic association, left for Atlanta last
night, where he will address the execu-
tive committee of the Atlanta steel con-
sumers for the purpose of telling them
of the work that the Civic association
has done and is doing to try to secure
for the Birmingham district and the
south the basic rate on all steel ship
ments
LAS everyone knows. the south has
always been at disadvantage where
steel shipments were concerned because
of the higher rates that it has had to
pay for the same haulage," said MI.
Harold yesterday. I'm an effort to Ell
I feet a change in this situation, the Civic
association was the leading spirit in or
ganizing the southern consumers into a
southern association, which is working
with the western association and other
districts interested in the question to Sc
cure reduction of rates. That their
work is accomplishing something may
be seen from the fact that they have
been promised a hearing by the Federal
Trade commission in the very near flu
ture."
The opposition of Birmingham and the
southern steel consumers ID to the Pitts
burg plus rate. which fixes the same
rate from Birmingham to southern
points as from Pittsburg, which is a
much larger haul.

tators who are conducting propaganda
for the spread of their doctrines were
blamed in part for the present industrial
unrest by Henry B. Porter of Boston in
a paper read at today's session of the
United Typothatoe OF America. These
persons, he said. were spending thousands
of dollars IN circulating their literature
and training speakers to expound argu-
ments calculated to inspire hatred o.
the employer and to destroy the pros
neritv of the country"
"I-nless the forward thinking employers
of the country grasp the significance o.
This upheaval" he said, land set to work
to stem the tide by rational and patriot,
measures, incalculable harm will be don
to all classes of citizens"

Labor, characterizing as 'autocratic" the
course taken by the Massachusetts au-

lice strike, was sharply criticized by MT
