Southern Traffic
League to Meet
Here in January

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. 90
A call for general membership
meeting of the Southern Traffic
league in Atlanta January 8, for the
formulation of a program that will
guide shippers in presenting evidence
to the interstate commerce commits
sion at Washington January g.,
when the matter of revision down
ward of freight rates on all commod-
tiles will be taken up, was sent out
Monday from the office of NJ. M.
Caskie, manager of the Transports
ton bureau of the chamber of COM
merce and secretary of the league.
1T is planned to come to some con-
tclus;on as to the proper method of
off-setting claims of railroads that
q reduction in freight rates is i'm
possible at this time.
Railroads, last week in Washing
ton, presented their briefs and ar
guments against any sort of reduc-
tions at this tine. The commission
adjourned the hearings until jan
nary g, when shippers, through the
Southern Traffic league, will have
their day in court. The shippers
claim that Il general reduction in
Interstate rates is necessary at this
time, and that such reduction would
tend to better business conditions,
taking heavy financial burdens from
the shoulders of business institu-
tions.

TOURIST DESCRIBES
GARDEN Of EDEN

LONDON.-When one arrives at
Basra one is quickly disillusionized
from the milk and honey view of
Mesopotamia, writes Edgar L. Wat
kins in ''The Daily Mall
Boarding a small river boat one
morning, I started my trip to the
Garden of Eden" he writes. 1.-THE
journey up the Shatt-el-Arab is very
interesting indeed, but the sights you
see are rather different from those,
say, on the Thames at Richmond or
Henley.
1.-THE banks are thickly covered
with date palms, and between the
! months of March and September the
dates may be seen hanging in great
clusters at the tops of the trees. You
occasionally see floating down the
river carcasses Of bulloeks, mules,
sheep and so forth, and where a car
cass chances to float to the bank
numbers Of jackals and vultures are
to be seen. Another interesting sight
was the harem of an old Arab shelk
who rumor says had 100 wives.
1--WE arrived at Kurna (Which is
recognized by many authorities, and
by the Arabs as the Garden OF Eden).
We stopped here and went ashore,
and the first thing that was pointed
out to us was an old tree, which
had evidently been dead many hun
dreds of years. This tree had been
replanted by the Arabs, who had
taken the trouble to support it my

and evil" as mentioned in the sec

| of Kerna stands on the banks of the
Tigris, and it is near here that we
have the att-el-Arab dividing into
| the Tigris and EuphrateS. The viii
| lage itself is not very large, but is
| thickly populated; the natives live in
| sun-dried mud-brick huts, in the
| building of which they are very
clever, and are employed chiefly in
date growing. Another fruit which
! is found is the fig. which grows very
abundantly, and if as plentiful in
| the days of Adam and Eve [ am sure
| they had little difficulty in solving
the dress problem.
| "Of course, you would not expect

are accustomed to read about 1t IN
Biblical history, and I assure you it
is not SO, as in reality it may be said

very little resemblance of a garden
about it. On both banks of the river
at this spot you have date palms to
a depth of a few hundred yards, be

as far as the eye can see.
1.-THE climate is very hot. During
the summer months temperatures OF
100 and 140 in the shade are quite
common, and this high temperature
continues until September, at the
end OF which it begins to get much
cooler, and at Christmas, as in Eng
land, it is no uncommon sight to see
snow. When on visit to either the

Highway Row
Gets Into Court

AMERICUS, Ga, Dec. 20.-The
Lee county road dispute over the
relocation of the Dixie Highway
through the town Of Smithvilie, has
been thrown into Iile courts, with
Judge z. A. Littlejohn enioining
both sides until the issue is settled.
An order restraining the county
forces from doing any work within
the town was issued several days
ago, and a companion order re-
strains the town officials from inter
fering with the county forces in their
work.
The county, proposes to reroute
the highway, so as to eliminate two
dangerous grade crossings at
Smithville, which would take the
traffic around the town, which has
caused much protest among resi-
dents of Sflithville. Frank A. Hoop.
er, of Atlanta, and Wallis & Fort,
of Americas, represent Smithville
protestants in the litigation, and
r. r. Forester, of Leesburg, and
r. L. Maynard, OF Americas, repre-
sent the county. Arguments in the
case were heard by Judge Littlejohn
in chambers here, and the case is
now under Amusement.

RAIL DIRECTORS
MUST GIVE Up JOBS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-William
Rockefeller, Harold S. Vanderbilt
and George F. Baker will have to
give up by December 81 certain
places they now hold on boards of
directors of railroad corporations,
under a ruling today by the inter-
state commerce commission.
Mr.. Rockefeller, the commission
said, in passing upon his application
to retain a number Of the places,
may be an officer of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad, but
must drop out of either the New
York Central board or the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western board. Mr.
Vanderbilt may retain positions as
officer Of the two western railroads,
the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis
and Omaha, and the Chicago and
Northwestern, but must retire
either from the New York Central
or the Delaware. LackawanI1a and
Western, and M. Baker must
choose, the commission said, with
which of three competing railroad
systems he desires to remain asso-
ciated.
The orders are issued under Sec
tons of the interstate commerce act
which require the commission to de-
termine whether or not it is COM
patible with public interest for one
official to retain more than one
place as director of interstate rail-
road corporations.
Chauncey M. Depew, however,
was given permission to retain his
place as director of nineteen differ
ent corporations, mostly identified
with the New York Central system,
while A. H. Smith, of the New York
Central, was permitted to hold
places as director or other officer
of sixty-six transportation corpora
tons. This is the largest number
held by any one individual so far
applied to the commission under the
law. Reginald c. Vanderbilt was
also given permission to hold twenty
three directOrateS.
