For the Good of
 the Community

A HAT in the display window of retail store.
 Inside the store merchant who wishes to sell that hat to get the money to pay rent and taxes and care for his family.
 Somewhere in town property owner, who is waiting on the rent of this store house to get the money to pay taxes and support his family.
 A woman enters the store and buys the hat.
 But where did that woman get the money?
 Out on Red Mountain there was ton of ore and across the valley there was a ton of coal, in the valley between ton of limerock.
 Men came with pick and dynamite and electric machinery and dug up the ore, the coal and the limestone
 The ingredients went into blazing maws of furnaces and mills up and down the valley and pig iron and steel and their finished products came forth.
 These products found market north, east south and west and in foreign fields. The purchasers of these products paid for them in coin of the realm.
 In turn, the makers of these products paid out the greater portion of this money to the mill and mine workers who had participated in the process from the bowels of the earth to delivery to con- SQmer.
 The result of this chain of effort was payroll The husband of the woman who bought the hat, or mayhap the woman herself, participated in that payroll.
 The purchase of the hat was the culmi- nation of this cycle of human endeavor: the direct ultimate of that endeavor.
 Had the ore and the coal and the lime stone slept in their primeval beds there would have been no mills and no payrolls, no retail stores, no merchants, no land lords, no wholesalers no rentals, no mar cantile profits; only the farms that were atop the coal and the ore veins before they were opened.
 But do the iron and the steel and their products sell automatically? Is the world so enamored of Alabama products that none others will please?
 Does an unfriendly freight rate mili- tate agalnSC the mafKoClng or these pro- ducts in competitive fields? Does a friendly one help carry them afar and bring back the money from afar to make bulging payrolls?
 Are the iron masters and the steel makers of the east in this country and of Germany and Britain babes in the woods, or do they compete for every inch of ground?
 The sale of that hat and the export rate on iron pipe bear direct relation. Re gently movement of Birmingham and Bessemer cast iron pipe cost $5,000 more in freight charges than it would have done had the Birmingport terminals been en- abled to handle it.
 The recent increase in the export rate on iron and steel products out of the dis trict initiates against Birmingham and in favor of tidewater pipe shops in the east. It threatens operations at Bessemer and Birmingham and payrolls and the sale of hats and the payment of rent and fat re-

Two Separate Tribunals.

the governor announced last night He
also would reorganize several state de-

mission under the courts supervision.
In the reorganization Of the court the
governor Will advocate q separate tribu-
nal for hearing labor disputes and an
other commission to exercise the rate
making powers which the industrial

Of the burden Of public utilities" said
Industrial court was given the work Of
administering public utilities that there
was danger that the court would be so
overburdened with this work that the
important new work of administering
the industrial court law would have to
be slighted.
THE result has justified the fears of
a year ago. 1t is not putting 1t too
strongly to say that 96 per cent Of the
time Of the Industrial court has been
devoted to the work of administering
1T was hoped that the Industrial
court would be able to do an extensive
work in studying conditions in indus
trial districts 80 as to meet the even
tualities before they cFystaltixe into dis
content. The court has had both the
spirit and ability to do this but has not
been able to carry out the program"
