Manager Brent to Discuss Warrior Matters in Bir-
 mingham Today

Much interest is expressed in the conference to be held this afternoon at 2;3O o'clock in the Chamber of Commerce auditorium between Theo Brent, manager of the Mississippi l. Warrior barge line, and Birmingham shippers. Directors of the chamber. the Alabama Manufacturers as- sociation, and Traffic Bureau will also meet with MT. Brent.
 The subject matter of the confer ence will be establishment of a gem eral Warrior river agency in Bir- mingham with an experienced ana capable traffic man in charge. 1t IS expected that MT. Brent will give this office a complete staff of rate and traffic experts to further the busi- ress of the Warrior and go after di- vision of through rates with the rail- roads that will enable the Warrior to earn profits.
 As it now stands on some through rates by rail and water the local rate allowed the rail carriers to the river, which the barge line must absorb, amounts to more than the entire charge which the Warrior makes for it's service. For instance, the rate on cotton from Decatur to the river terminals at Tuscaloosa is s1.20. The barge line gets 74 cents for hauling the cotton to New Orleans, The barge line must pay the rail carrier the $1.20 local rate The result is that the Warrior loses 46 cents per hun dred pounds on every bale of cottotn that 1t carries from port of Tusca- loosa to New Orleans. This is an ex- ample of the through rate division which it is thought an active and competent general agent at Birming- ham will be able to correct

Supreme Court Will
 Pass on Validity of
 Dunn Road Contract

Notice of an appeal to the supreme court from the decisions of Judge Hugh A. Locke in the matter of the North Bessemer road contract was filed in ehancery court yesterday by the Dunn Construction company.
 Construction of the road has been held up for more than a year by court litigation. Recently Judge Locke held that the petition entered into by the Dunn company with the county was illegal and could not be carried out. The injunction was granted on the petition of William l.. White who argued that the con- tract was let at war prices and would mean a loss of S100,0O0 to the taxpayers of the county.
 The county was ready to carry out the contract but the board of revenue was unwilling to appeal the case. However the action of the Dunn company automatically makes the county a party in the litigation.

Record Lou Yard Stocks or Pig Iron Indicate
 Strength of Market

Statistical strength of the Birming- ham iron market reached another high point August 1, when, instead of an increase of iron on furnace yards as might have been anticipated owing to the rail strike. there was a decrease and new low record was made.
 Total of iron stocks on Alabama yards August l was 36,000 tons com pared with the previous low of A. 900 tons on July L The low record prior to that time was 60.000 tons
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-08-09

June l. this year. There were 22o,oo0 tons on yards at this time last year and l6O,000 tons on yards January l. 1921.
 Several furnace interests are sold beyond capacity of production. for remainder of the third quarter. un- der normal transportation conditions the stock situation would amount to pig iron famine.
 Some pig iron is being piled this month and more will be piled unless the car shortage Is relieved. It Is more and more difficult to move iron to destination in the west and east.
