HOOVER RUMOR IS REAL SENSATION IN
 CAPITAL CIRCLES
Both Wins of Party Had Informed Harding Former Food Administrator Per-
 soma Non Grata
By HUGH W. ROBERTS washington Bureau The Age-Herald
 300 Davidson Building

Washington. February 21.-C ecial) The inspired announcement from Florida today that President elect Harding would offer Herbert Hoover the portfolio of Secretary of Commerce struck Washington with the signifi- canoe of a profound sensation.
 Both wings of the republican party, that headed by Senator Penrose of ator Johnson of California, had served notice on the incoming chief executive that the former food administrator was in every vital respect persona non grata. And yet MT. Harding, who. since his nomination. has been in- variably tractable in respect to the di- rection of the so-called bosses, mas openly defied them in perhaps the most important incident of the pre- inaugurau season.
 This afternoon, neither Penrose nor Johnson would authorize a statement. It is learned, however, that tonight Senator Johnson conferred with Sem atro Penrose at the latters Wardman Park Inn apartments. From what was subsequently inferred neither of the senators believes that Harding has offered Hoover the cabinet position It was suggested that before another 2a hours, both would ask the Press ident-elect to declare himself without equivocation.
 NOT PARTY MAN"
 Senator Penrose opposes Hoover be- cause Hoover is not party man. 1t
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-02-22

is true that when Hoover yielded to q desire to be President, he flirted with both parties, and subsequently embraced the republican because it was obvious ;o the most casual observer that it was the stronger of the two. Senator Johnson entertaips an undylng antipathy towards Hoover because the latter dared to con test Johnsons presidential aspirations in the state of California. That campaign was sensational, and each rival spoke di- rectly regarding his innermost thought Iand opinion of the other
 It is regarded as probable by dem ocrats that Harding decided to name Hoover in desperation Practically every man he had considered as a cabinet pos sbility encountered the opposition of the bosses. March approaches, and the cabinet slate is not vet complete. The idea is that Harding has reached con- clusion that as he cannot please every body, or any one influential member of the party, he might as well proceed with. out party sanction. It remains to be seen whether Harding. if he has acquired such an attitude, will suffer the Anti Saloon league to force A. W. Mellon into the discard because sometime ago that capitalist controlled the stock of the OVerholt Distlling company
 It is reported tonight that Presi- dent Wilson heard the Hoover story with undiaguised interest. The Presi- dent knows that he gave Hoover the opportunity, of which he took immedi- ate advantage. of acquiring such commanding grasp on the imaginatioi Of the people. It is understood that the President is hopeful that the re- ported independence of Harding will be borne out in fact. In connection with the sensation. it is announced tonight that Hoover has purchased a S150, 0Oi home in Washington in the block, in. cidentally, wherein President Wilson. after March A. will live.

For Good of
 the Community

CTOCK of the Southeastern Express o company was oversubscribed on the day 1t was offered last week. Each of the fourteen states traversed by the Southern and Mobile and Ohio roads, on whose lines the company will operate, more than took it's quota.
 This was expression of confidence in the south; confidence in Alabama and the Birmingham district Fitting that Bir- mingham, the greatest tonnage producer in the south should be the legal home of this concern.
 The Mountain Grove, Mo-, Creamery company has selected Birmingham as it's southern and southeastern base of opera tions. It chose Birmingham on account of it's distributing advantages It chose Birmingham on account of it's central position with reference to the assembling of raw material from the rest of the state.
 Birmingham has long ago stepped over the line marking it as desirable on account of the proximity of raw material That was and is basic, but the raw material ad- vantages have produced the tonnage and tonnage brought the railroads and the freight cars. Plants like the creamery COlIlc CIllS way IlOW UCCduSC DIIulIlSudIu is ideally situated for the distribution of product. Making is one thing; marketing is quite as important
 The Lehigh Portland Cement company will build a cement plant on high-priced land on the outskirts of Birmingham rather than on cheaper acreage with equally good and larger quantity of lime stone because the company wishes the terminal facilities of Birmingham after the stuff is produced.
 Birmingham is expanding at this time as much on account of her strategical position as a shipping center as by reason of many other things combined It is gratifying to know that the pressed steel car works of the Chickasaw company are about ready to add 25 cars per diem to the supply already on hand
 They are assembling the materials for the coal terminals at Cordova. They will soon be in operation and their operation means quadrupling the coal-handling facilities at that river port as we'll as greater economy They mean more coal going more easily to Mobile and New Or leans from Alabama mines. They also count for distribution.
 The government has authorizeh an other steel derrick at Port of Birmingham. This will add to the cargo-handling ap- pliances there The shipping board has ordered the immediate construction at Mobile of fueloi tanks of large capacity When they are completed at early date ships using oil for fuel will not be obliged to go to New Orleans This means more ships for port of Mobile. More ships for Mobile, which is Birmingham's port reached by rail and by water, will add to the distributing advantages of Birming ham.
 This week final touches will be put to the installation of rates of 20 per cent un- der all-rail rates for transportation of mer- chandise from New York to Birmingham via the Mallory line and the Warrior barges. There are four ships on the Mall lory line now and two sailings a week That sounds. more like rapid transit than sloW-going water-borne traffic.
