Traffic on Warrior
 Shows Big Increase

Tuscaloosa, May s.-(special.)-A verified tonnage report of the Missls- sippi-W service shows that the amount of tonnage handled on the Warrior river for the month of April. for redistribution, by far exceeds the tonnage handled here during any other month. The reasons given for this increase were the clearing up of general business and industrial con ditions. and the fact that shippers are beginning to realize the advan- tage to be secured by water ship ments to Tuscaloosa. which works a 20 per cent saving in freight costs over the all-rail route, and saves several days time in deliveries over the old system of ordering out of New Orleans.

The Emergency Officer
 During the War

The contract between the United States and the Alabama Power Company for the construction of the government unit at the Gorgas steam plant was ap- proved on November 8, 1918, by the Army Board having such duty. This board was known as the Board of Con- tract Review, Procurement Division, and consisted of seven Government officers representing the Army and the War De- partment. It was also their official duty to approve contracts in writing if they concurred. The written concurrence and approval of these seven officers is before the committee.
 All of the Government officers who have been examined by the committee the Secretary of War, General Williams, Colonel Joyes and Colonel Burns have sustained the fairness of the contract and indeed have taken the view that the Government has moral obligation to carry it out.
 But in order to prejudice the public mind against this company, an Alabama Congressman made charge of "col- fusion between Army men and Power of- ficials" in the Birmingham News of the 10th of March; and he further sought to discredit the contract by charging that it was made with an emergency officer" The majority of the members consti- tgting the Board of Contract Review were emergency officers, doubtless as- signed to that duty because of their ex- perience and qualifications in civil life. The great majority of officers of our Army both at home and abroad were also emergency officers.
 Let us ask if the day has come so soon after the war that member of Congress, to carry out his campaign of abuse and hatred against public utility, may with impunity discredit that great body of patriotic Americans who became emerg- ency officers in the late war?
 We denounce 1t as un-American un- fair and untrue. There is not a particle of proof of any kind that has ever been presented to sustain it, and none can be presented, because it is absolutely false. Now what are facts?
 Colonel Joyes, a graduate of West Point, an officer of the Regular Army of many years experience, was the head, during the war, of the Nitrate Division. He has made statement to the Military Committee that should satisfy any hon. est, fair-minded man. He stated that when he first investigated, in the fall of 1917, with the view of obtaining power for the proposed Nitrate Plant at Muscle Shoals:
 'The Alabama Power Company, unquestionably, did not have a suf- ficient supply of uncontracted power or unsold power throughout the year to meet the demands for the first half production of the nitrate plant; but that at certain seasons of the year, and especially the season when the first half production was expected to be- gin, there would be available about the 3O,OOO kilowatts that was desireisn. out of the run of the river. l aio speaking now of the Coosa river ands the Alabama Power Company system. In other words, that at the time when we needed that first supply of power, it would be available over and above contract requirements, at least over and above the binding contract re quirements that could not be set aside."
