as well as the supervision of the cen struction of the railroad system, which will cover China like an octo- pus. reaching the heart of the in- terior and penetrating over the banks of the Yangtzse.
 During the war China underwent ! a change all for the good. She has caught more of the American spirit Of agressiveness and is rapidly be- coming modernized.
 The American plan of cotton mill ing Is now being used in China. The cotton gin and the mill are familiar sights. They have found the use ! of the cotton seed to be the same as it is in America, and soon big oil mills will be started"

GRAPHITE MILL IN ASHLAND RESUMES
Dixie Company to Organize
 Sales Force and Sell Direct

Owing to better market conditions, the two plants of the Dixie Censoli- dated Graphite company at Ashland, have resumed operations with fair tonnage of orders on hand.
 W. L. Shumate, of the Dixie Con solidated company. who has just re- turned from New York. says several nice contracts were placed in the east.
 Market is now ruling at cents" said MT. Shumate, and money can be made in the Alabama field at that price The market is in good condition and we feel that good run is ahead of us.
 "Our company is preparing to sell direct to the consumer of graphite instead of selling to the large deal CTS and allowing them to make the middle mans profit. To do this we will have to organize a sales force and put up the prepared graphite in containers to suit the different kinds of trade. That we propose to do.
 "For permanency of the industry. we need and should have a tariff duty. We want a specific duty of a few cents pound. A Senate bill allows an ad valorem duty of 20 per cent and a House bill, one of 10 per cent. That will help some, but we believe the industry would be on a solid foundation if small specific was levied.
 "F'oiIowing the armistice lot of foreign graphite was dumped on the market at very low prices and caused a damper of the domestic business. That has been disposed of and we are again feeling our way. With direct selling and shipment to con- sumers we expect 10 work out much better conditions.''

High points of China. according to J. Morgan Clements. American trade commissioner to China, 1s1T- 1922:
 China is one of the largest users of cotton goods in the world.
 Chinese silk is used almost ex- clusively in America and Europe.
 Of the $50. .O0o. 900 inhabitants of China. over 300, 900, 900 of them are farmers and make their living cultivating the agricultural lands of China.
 great railway system connect ing every town in China Is now a project. and American engineers are to have charge of the work.
 Although China was highly civ- ilized over 2,000 years ago. the American who has a little money and good sense can make 1t land of golden opportunity.

 Congressman Oliver, in his speech, urged cooperation of the entiro membership of the Civic association and all civic organizations in Bir- mingham to help get Ford's bid ac- eepted. He told of the progress of the fight already made and what re- mained yet to be edone.
 Let Ford get Muscle Shoals and you will see things change in Ala bama," said Congressman Oliver. A fight for him in which the entire state takes part will help consider ably. It means more to Alabama, it's people, and the entire south now, than almost any other issue before the public.
 Get concerted action upon the part of all civic organizations, let every organization endorse Ford's bid and then you will see good results"
 In closing, Congressman Oliver at, tackled the business policy of the Alabama Power company stating:
 They make a contract to furnish electricity at a certain rate and then go to the public service commission at first chance"
