but he evidently did not hear them
or see the approaching train, despite
the whistle and ringing Of the bell.
Engineer MCGOWAN was at the throt-
tie, but on the opposite side from
which Varnado was crossing the

an approaching train can be seen for
a great distance.

Of the car on the engine and innne-
diately applied the brakes and the
train was stopped ABOUT a thousand

RUSHTON GREETED WARMLY IN MOBILE Candidate for Senate Spoke to Large Crowd In Gulf
 City Last Night

Mobile, April s.-(special) To-day was Ray Rushton day in Mobile. and there are several thousand voters in the second largest city in the state who will from now until the May Il pri- mary boost the Montgomery county candidate for United States senator for the short term. Rushton's forces early in the day woke up Mobile with a band of music advertising the meeting. and tonight at 8 o'clock, when the candi- date appeared in the speakers stand al Bienvillc square he was greeted by over 2,000 people.
 George J. Sullivan, leading attorney of this city, presided over the meeting in the absence of County Chairman Gregory L. Smith, who is in Montgom- cry on legal business. Mir. Sullivan told the Mobile crowd that Ray Rush ton was the logical candidate for the short term; that he was man of busl- ness, esteemed in his own community and throughout the state, and that he would if elected go to the Senate of the United States with the one idea in his mind, and that was to do something for all the people of Alabama, to en- courage the use of Alabama's water ways to the highest degree.
 MT. Rushton when he arose to speak was greeted with an ovation from the vast crowd. lasting for a minute or more. He spoke along the broad lines that has characterized his tour through the state.
 MT. Rushton came into the city from a short tour of Conecuh, Monroe. Es cambia and Baldwin counties. Over flowing with enthusiasm for his recep tion in these counties was enthusiastic to the highest degree.
 T am indeed delighted with the way my fellow Alabamians received me in these counties" he said. At every place was a large delegation of people to meet me, and I received the greatest of encoura cement and support"
 At the Battle House last night hun dreds of Mobilians from every walk of life came forward and met MT. Rush. ton and pledged not only their votes, but their support from now until the close of the election. After his speech many shook hands with him.

WASHDURN DENIES WASTE IN NITRATE
 PLANT ERECTION
President of American Cy- anamid Company Opposes Federal Operation for
 Making Fertilizer
By Associated Press

Washington. April S.-Frank $ Washburn. president of the American Cynamid Company and it's subsidiary, the Air Nitrate Corporation, told the Senate agriculture committee today there had been no waste. dishonesty. or extravaganza. in the construction. or operation of the Muscle Shoals nj trate plant Had the government op- erated the plant three years as origin ally contemplated, he said. it would not only have saved the original cost of $62, 000, 900, but would have realized an additional $20, GOO GOO
 Appearing in opposition to the Wads worth bill, which would authorize the government to operate Muscle Shoals plant for the manufacture of fertilizer, Mir. Washburn declared the war depart ment had failed in the management of the nitrate business and wasted mil lions of dollars while now, he said. it proposes entering into direct competi- ton with the American Cynamid Com pany and other private interests, which, under the government contract calling for the construction of the Muscle Shoals plant. was to have been pro- tected from post-war competition with the plants it built for the government.
 'The whole spirit and tenor of the bill under consideration by your com mittee," he said. directly violates the announced purpose of the government when it. enlisted the assistance of the American Cynamid Company to meet one of the most serious, if not the most serious, problems presented in the whole war, and the expressed purpose of its proponents to infringe the com pany's patents and minimize it's royal- ties, is essentially dishonest"
 Under present plans, MT. Washburn said, the war department proposes us- ing a portion of the plant costing $33, ,- 100000 but in order to operate it. expenditure of s3S, ,000 aditional is contemplated. Should that be done, the witness said the farmers would not be benefited, for the sulphate of ammonia which the government would produce, constitutes only about per cent of the fertilizer used while in making this product the government would come into competition with bi-product coke ovens.

SOIL VARIETIES FOUND
 IN SOUTHERN STATES

Washington April S. (Special)-The soils of the southern states are pro- ductive of many crops and suitable for many purposes in connection with. arr riculture, live stock raising and refor- estation.

 The soil survey has parties at work this year in two counties of South Car oiina, two counties of North Carolina three counties of Alabama, three coun. ties of Georgia, three counties in Texas, one county in Arkansas, and severa! counties in Missisipp; and Louisiana. About 50 experts of the survey are en- Eaged in southern states.
 The states of Georgia, North Caro- lima, Mississippi and Texas are among those cooperating with the govern ment bureau of soils, which conse- quently keeps a force constantly em- pioyed in such states. The result of
