ENGINEERS FINISH SURVEY OF LEH|GH
 CEMENT CO. LANDS
Construction of Plant to Start Early In Coming Year-Ad- dition Makes Birmingham
 Center of Business

It is very probable that ground will be broken on the 1,000,000-barrel cement plant of the Lehigh Portland Cement company before the turn of the year.
 Engineers have about completed their work and what remains before other points of activity on the part of the company of forces engaged there These are to be transferred to the building of the Birmingham plant. The company hopes to be able to start before the end of the year Ger tainly it will be done very shortly after January 1 if not by that time, it is an- nounced.
 The site obtained by the Lehigh com pany consists of 250 acres of rich lime stone-bearing land at Tarrant City on the eastern outskirts of Birmingham This will afford raw material in large quantities but it is understood that one of the outstanding reasonos why Birmingham was chosen as the point of southern expansion lies in its position railroad terminal and distributing point.
 DISTRIBUTION
 It is the experience of cement pro- ducers that making the cement is but half work. Getting the product prompt ly moved to the consumer is just as im- portant Birmingham's coal iron and steel tonnage serves to assemble a large supply of freight ears here at all times and makes of this. point a first-class freight terminal. It is this that contributed largely to the coming of the Lehigh company and to it's will- ingness to pay over $20O,000 for the site on which the plant is to be built F. c. Fiske, representative of the president of the Lehigh company, is in the city, attending to the engineering and other preparations for work of construction.
 The plant is estimated to cost about S3,o00,oo0. The Lehigh company is the largest producer of cement in the United States.
 OTHER COMPANIES
 Coming of the Lehigh company to this district is the second evidence of the prestige which it holds in the cement world. During the spring the Atlas Cement company took over the highly successful and frequentlv en-
 
 Cement company at Leeds. 12 miles from the city, and has been operating it since.
 In the past few months the National Cement company took over the long idle plant of the Coosa Portland Cement company at Ragland, overloaded it and is now operating it at an annual capac- ity of 750, 900 barrels
 On the first of the year the Gulf States Portland Cement company. or ganized by Mason City, Iowa, parties, began operations at the Demopolis plant, which had been tanen over som Q time before and was overhauled, mod ernized and enlarged. This plant is also in steady operation and ships much of its product up and down the War . rior river. ~ .,.s...-.t. sl ~
 Demopolis, has raised a fund with Which to supplement government aid Tn the building of river terminals at that place. When these are provided, the river and export business of the cement works via Mobile will be ma $ terially facilitated and augmented

and life work and characteristics of
men who aspire to the highest offices
within the gift of the people?
How dare they select a committee
to search the records and activities
of those who aspire to the positions
Of greatest Influence and power in the
republic?
How dare they distinguish between
rcactionary toryism and progressive
humanitarian
How dare they lay these facts bare
before the workers and citizenship
generally of our republic?
These prerogatives belong to the
corporations, big business and their
apologists and defenders, such as the
Washington Post, the steel trust, the

corded exclusive right to- advise They
must have the additional right to
cajole, to coerce, to raise slush funds
to buy the highest offices in our
country.
THE Washington Post. with the
other mouthpieces and apologists of
reaction, has failed to comprehend
either the industrial or the siciologi-
cal situation Of the peoples if the
world. including the United States.
The organized labor movement of
America has steadfasily stood for
progress, for reform as against vio-
lence and revolution. and the entire
course Of the A. F. of L., industrially
and politically, is governed by that
course. You not only antagonize these
both, but attempt to hold up to ridi-
Guile and contempt the chosen regre-
sentatives Of the men and women of
labor who dare have the temerity to
express the practically unanimous ex-
preston of 100000 wage earners or
ganized in our Federation. The Wash
ington Post would apparently prefer to
invite and encourage the discordant
elements of destruction rather than
the constructive group who work for
progress and evolution.
will you do me the kindness to
publish this apology to the Washing
ton Post in an early issue of your
paper?'
