building and Car Company, steamed down Mobile Bay drawing 28 feet Of water and having on board 5000 tons of Birmingham steel and 1,2500OO feet of Alabama lumber for Rotterdam, a com bined cargo of Alabama products valued at $500,0O0.
 Her sister ship, the Chickasaw City, has preceded her to the same destination with similar cargo Her other sister, the Birmingham City, is ploughing her way to Toao with Birmingham steel, and the Mobile City, the fourth, will shortly load with like cargo for the Far East
 Why keep repeating the doings of our all-Alabama steel ships? Because we can not do better than dwell on what they mean to us until there is such realization that it is part of our being.
 It is of significance that the first four ships turned out by the Chickasaw yards, ~- after having been built of Birmingham steel, shall have carried to two continents two million dollars worth of Brming- ham steel. This quantity of steel is that much withdrawn from competition in this country and that much which calls for ad- ditional production.
 This steel will bring back to America the money of other countries It is a token of the dependence of the world on Amer ica, on Alabama. It is the sign in our Armament of the stability of the iron and steel trade of Alabama. It is the promise nf n11+1of to Otbor oti of any surplus which we develop and which needs a foreign outlet lest our own indus tries undergo stagnation in periods of a domestic over production. It means steady work in all seasons in the southern iron and steel industries by reason of this worldwide market for their products
 What this means for iron and steel 1t means also for lumber and corn and cot ton, all the products of all the farms and all the mills.
 Trace it back to the simplest of under lying cause.-the proximity of the ore, the coal and the limestone in Jones valley. That enables the assemblage of raw ma terials at lowest cost anywhere in the world. It enables the smallest number of railroad cars to perform the greatest service and renders the district least of sufferers from recurrent car shortages.
 And, after the raw material has been assembled and converted into iron and steel shapes there came nature and Prov idence again and gave us the Warrior river That is playing it's part in foreign trade. Not only have we floated down it's peaceful bosom the Birmingham steel that went into the building of the ships, but we floated down it the steel that they are carrying abroad.
 Nature gave us the proximity of raw materials, then she added proximity to the open sea sand then, in an abandon of generosity, placed the Warrior alongside our coal and in the vicinage of our finish ing mills.
 Why repeat this? Why talk so much about our ships? Why so often relterate our marvellous situation with reference to raw materials and the open seas? Be- cause they are our biggest assets and the fundamentals
