MUSICAL MAGAZINE
. PRAISES LOCAL BODY

The September issue of the Musical
Courier contains a page article telling
of the unusual development of music
in our community and in our schools.
The fact that Richmond maintains a
symphony orchestra which is entirely
selfsupporting is considered marvel
lous by other communities that are
faced with annual deficits of many
thousands of dollars in order to keep
their orchestras from bankruptcy.
Aside from it's cultural value to a
community, symphony orchestra is
considered one of the best mediums
for advertising a city and it is con-
sidered good business to maintain
such an organization in every enter
prising city.
A few years ago the people of Min
neapolis, Mimi, spent 100000 in send
the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra
on tour through the east for the pur-
pose of advertising the city. The
Cleveland symphony orchestra is soon
TO embark on a similar advertising
tour which will include a concert in
Richmond.
Orchestra Advertises City.
The Richmond Symphony orchestra
has already furnished much desirable
publicity for the city although its &C
tivities have been confined to local
appearances. The first out-of-town ap-
pearance of the local orchestra will be
made Oct. 81, when it will give con-
cert in Indianapolis before the Indiana
State Teachers association at Tom
linson hall.
This concert is made possible, it is
announced. through the generosity of
the Starr Piano company which is pay
ing all the expenses of the trip, which
amount to over $3.50. This company
also will print and distribute souvenir
programs among the teachers of the
state, telling of Richmond's education
al and cultural enterprises.
A member of the orchestra said Fri
day. Richmond does not realize as yet
what an important factor the SYM
phony orchestra may become as an
advertisement for Richmond. The In
dianapolis concert will demonstrate to
the people of Richmond that the or
chestra is worthy of the support of
even those who do not care to attend
the concerts"

B|G LUMBER DEAL
 CLOSED AT MOBILE
C. w. Zimmerman Plant at Jackson and 33,0O0 Acres
 Included In Transaction

Mobile, February 5.-(SpeciaL)- deal
 of big interest to the lumber industry in
 this section has been consHnmated which
 included the taking over of the large
 plant of the c. W. Zimmerman Manufac-
 turing company at Jackson, Clarke
 county it's raidroad and accessories, to-
 gether with 5000 acres of land The
 consideration amounts to thousands of
 dollars.
 The land in question is largely covered
 with fine pine and hardwood of market
 able size and is located in Clarke count :
 within easy access of the mill plant
 through it's own railroad. The deal was
 handled by w T. McGowin, a former
 well known lumbernan of Mobile, now
 of Jackson, and J. s. McVey and D. N.
 Postelwaite, largely interested in coal op- ations and numbering, Columbus, Ohio, who secured controlling interest in the property mentioned.
 "The deal" said MT McGowin, lis not a speculative move, but for the purpose of putting the plant in condition for op- erating immediately following resump- ton of activities in the lumber industry" " The confidence of McGowin, McVey and Postelwaite in the future of the lum- Der industry. especially in this imIne- diate section, was expressed in no un- certain terms. As evidence of their in- tention, the statement was made by MT, McGowin that steps would at once be taken to extend the railroad owned by the plant a distance of 15 miles farther into the heart of the timber lands ot the company.
 To do this 300 men will be employed the survey having already been made It was said by the parties at interest
 that the securing of this labor would be the beginning of the formation of the en- tire crews needed at the mill plant and in the woods and further that imme-

RAILROADS CITED ID APPEAR MAY 1 Several Companies, It Is Stat ed, Have Failed to Obey
 Agreements

Montgomery, February 5.-(Special.)-- Railroads will be required, under the terms of the award which authorized the increasing of freight rates in Alabama 9 per cent. to appear before the public service commission May 1 and offer fig ures substantiatng the reasonableness Of these increased rates.
 A number of the roads, it was pointed out today, have not acted in conformity with the commissions order that such figures be prepared and presented within six months of Novem Der l, 1920, when the tions are expected to go forward to the delinquents.
 Recalling that the six months trial pe- riod in which the new rates were to be effective is rapidly passing, B. H. Cooper, associate public service commissioner de- clared today that numerous complaints have been received from all parts of the state relative to freight shipments. It is claimed that rates are too high and that traffic is not moving freely, the commissioner voicing the opinion that this is probable due to the reduction of prices of commodities to the point where they cannot bear the burden of higher freight tariffs.
 Tt is inevitable" he stated, that some adjustment will have to be made on or before May l. in order to meet changed conditions. The rules which rail- way employees work under the wages paid them may be applicable in other sections of the country, but they are not properly adjusted so that they will apply without injury in Alabama.

 The First Baptist Sunday school has grown within the last two years to such an extent that the present rooms are no longer adequate to accommo date the large attendance.

BRITISH PREMIER ADVISES GERMANS
 ID ACCEPT BILL
Lloyd George Declares Allied Claim Is a Righteous One
 and Must Be Enforced
By Associated Press

Birmingham, England, February b. The British prime minister's advice to Germany is to accept the bill for rep arations as formulated by the su- preme council at Paris.
 Our claim is a righteous one and we must enforce it" MT. Lloyd George declared in a speech here today when he received the freedom of the city of Birmingham. He replied to the speech in the Reichstag recently by Dr. Wal ter Simons, in which the German for eign minister stated that the repara- tions plan could not be accepted ,by Germany as basis for negotiations.
 "A great part of this speech" the premier said, Twas based on com plete misconception of what had been done at Paris. Such misconception could be cleared up in the forthcoming London conference. If a full bill were sent to Germany, according to the Yer saifles treaty, she would be compelled to accept it, but I fail to see how that would improve matters, and 1 very re- |spectfully advise Dr. Simons to take the Paris bill.
 '1f he has any alternative proposals, the allies are prepared to consider them So long as the proposals represent a bona fide effort to nquidate the liabil- ities of Germany. We are willing that Germany should pay us under condi- tions which best suit her own means, requirements and resources. but if it is mere attempt to evade payment we cannot put up with that"
