LAUNDRY OWNERS
 ELECT OFFICERS
Cotton States Laundry AsSo- citation ReOrganized With
 Mcclellan President

The Cotton States Laundry Owners association was re-organized yester- day at a meeting of about 40 leading laundry owners of the southern states at the Tutwiler hotel. B. c. Mcclellan, of New Orleans, La, was elected president of the association.
 The chief purpose of the association is said to be to help secure better freight and express rates on laundry so that the city laundries will be abie to handle the trade of the rural dis tricts. Under the present freight rates it has been impossible for the laundries to do this as they did be- fore the war. Cooperation between the leading establishments of the dii- ferent states will be brought about by the association.
 c. F. Smith, of Hattiesburg, Miss was elected treasurer of the new or ganization, and the following vice. presidents were chosen for each of the states now represented: F. 0. Stafford. Alabama; W. r. Long, Tenn essee; George List. Arkansas; G. w. Cline. Louisiana; Hardy Jones, Miss issippi. These officers will consti- tute the executive committee for the ensuing year They will select the place for the next meeting. The cou- vention adjourned yesterday after noon.

COAL TERMINAL TEST
 PROVES SATISFACTORY

Test of the 2.000-ton coal terminal at Cordova has been made and proven satisfactory.
 This Important feature of Warrior river equipment is now ready to serve the bunker and export coal trade of Alabama.
 The terminal has storage capacity of 2,000 tons with four bins of 5VO tons capacity each. By belt con- veying system coal will be taken from railroad cars and dumped into the bins at the rate of $50 tons an hour.
 By another conveying system the coal passes from bins to the waiting barges at the rate of 450 tons an hour.
 The terminals can handle 5000 tons a day working 10 hours, and more by using extra shifts when neces- sary. The new terminal will enable loading with much more dispatch and with greater economy.
 The cost of this river improvement was about $70.000 and it has been several months in building It will form an important link in the chain of export and bunker coal that will have been completed with the build ing of the 40,0o0-ton coal terminal at Mobile now under construction at a cost of s400,000.

pr. Cabot LuII Talks to Xii Wanians on Milk
 Consumption

MiliS consumption should be devel- oped and fostered by citizens of Bir- mingham as civic duty, Dr. Cabot Lull, member of the Jefferson county board of health, told members of the Kiwanis club yesterday after noon at their luncheon at the South erp club. e
 Milk was characterized by pr. Lull as an essential food Citing figures contained in The Age Herald yester [ day morning, he stated the people of Birmingham should consume five times as much milk daily as at pre- sent. This would give a consump- tion volume of 25,0O0 gallons daily.
 Support of the dairy industry was urged by Dr. Lull, who said the sui'' ply could be increased many fold by proper encouragement of the men who own dairy herds.
 w. V. Trammell was introduced as new member of the board or direc. tors of the club, succeeding pr. C- '>. Daniel. who has left the city.

COLLEGE PROPERTY Y
 SALE IS AUTHORIZED

Sale of the property of Birming- ham Southern college at Greensboro to the city of Greensboro was au- thorized at meeting of the execu- tive committee of the college yester- day morning in the office of R. s. Munger, chairman.
 The deed will be delivered to cer- tain trustees appointed by the city of Greensboro, and the amount to be- paid the college will be $26, 900. The property consists of the old campus and buildings of the Southern university, and in the estimation of the committee is worth much more than the amount of the purchase price, but the sale is being made because the city of Greensboro sup ported the college when it was To- cated at that place, and because it is to be used for school purposes.
 The city of Greensboro has been operating for two years the South ern Military academy, and has been very successful with the school.

Proposed Ordinance Requires Certificate of Weight With
 Each Sale

Another expense will be added to housekeeping if ice weights are to be checked up following delivery undef the terms of an ordinance introduced yesterday by Commissioner J. Ellis Brown. which will be acted upon at next Tuesdays session of the com mission.
 Householders who believe the ice man is short weighing them Will be forced to purchase a pair of scales.

 Price nt Mine Reduced
 The DeBardeleben Coal company has notified all it's retail yard GUS toners with whom it has contracts for Sipsey domestic coal that owing to the reduction in wages, which has been made by mutual consent, the price of coal at the mines will be re- duced, effective July l, and 1t Is es- timated that the reduction will be "at least 50 cents a ton" This would bring Sipsey coal from $4 S2 at mines to s432, and, if the retail dealers give the consufner the benefit of the reduction, Sipsey coal will cost the consumer 50 cents less ton than now Sipsey coal was quoted July ] at s91 and ss.75 for one or five tons respectively, Allowing new scale at mine these prices would be $S.50 and sS .25.
 The DeBardelben company will bill it's retail yard customers at the present price, but allow the rebate when the exact reduction based on the reduced mine wage is ascer- tained
 Coal coming direct from mine to the cellar over paved highway re- mains a leading feature of the coal in cellar talk and prognostication Some see great increase in this business in the very near future, and Birmingham generally supplied in that manner at no distant date.
