RAD|OPHONE SET IS
 ON HIS AUTOMOBILE
Driver Could Hear Power Company Concert Last
 Night While in Motion

Radiophone fans who were lettering in the neighborhood of the Alabama Power company sending station at 1921 Powell avenue last night, were very much interested in novel type of receiving station which was placed in a six-cylinder automobile of pop
 ular make. The owner of this car. MT. Davidson, having had experi-
 ence with radiophones as applied to airplanes, made use of his knowledge
 and has attached a receiving set to the windshield of his car with an antenna attached to the cover. Mir. Davidson said that the set was con structed by himself, his only text
 book being his metnory and initiative, and was patterned very closely after
 sets used in the United States army air service.
 Bystanders were permitted to "listen in and were amazed at the clearness with which they could hear
 the concert sent out from the Ala
 bama Power company's transmitting station. It Is said that just as good results are obtained while the car is travelling at moderate rate of speed.
 Mir. Davidson contemplates other Improvements which he believes will make his set as efficient as the big stationary receivers.

EDITORS RSDEPR|VED
 OF RAD|Q CONCERT
 BY SUDDEN STORM
Elaborate Program Last Night Was Heard, However, All Over North
 Alabama

Last nights radio concert given by the Alabama Power company was apparently heard by everyone in Alabama, except those for whom it was primarily intended. the members of the Alabama Press association in convention at Montgomery.
 Just as the concert started an electrical and rain storm broke loose in Montgomery which caused so much interference that the numbers could not be heard there.
 However, the program was heard distinctly all over the northern part of the state. All of the local radio fans were at their instruments and telephone messages poured in to the Age Herald and to the power com pany telling how plainly the music and speakers could be heard.
 It was the most elaborate pro- gram the power company has yet given at it's local broadcasting sta tion, embracing three short speeches in addition to the finished vocal and instrumental numbers by local ar lists.
 The complete program follows:

NEW MILL GREAT.
 SAYS JOHN ADAMS
Veteran Rolling Mill and Fur mace Expert Declares Plant
 Much Needed One

"The new merchant bar mill an- nounced by the Tennessee company. has been long required" said John H. Adams. the veteran. rolling mill and furnace operator.
 "As I read the official notic, of MT. Crawford announcing the mill, visualize the great convenience of operation that Is provided for. I also see wher the mill may run on regulation production and it may run on special products.
 Provision for manufacture of con- crete steel reinforcing bars on a large scale is especially good news. The demand for that product is grow ing all the time.
 Outstanding merit of the mill, as outlined, is that 1t will produce many different shapes and sizes, some of which are not at present supplied by southern mills. It Is much better for the southern steel consumer to have these shapes and sizes made at home than to be forced to import them.
 The mill will, I sec. be So con- structed as to reduce rehandling to minimum. In fact, it seems to be a continuous process from T. ception of the billets from the blooming mills to the finished product.
 "A large mill? Yes. a very large one. Notice that 1t will be more than 800 feet long. That covers two city blocks.
 "Construction of this mill is in response to a developed demand. The southern consumption of steel has been increasing by leaps and bounds in the past few years and it Is just beginning its res.l growth. Besides the dome-tic demand this district en- joys special advantages for export which MT. Crawford also refers to.
 Tt is just .le blossoming out of the district from year to year. As fast as the Tennessee company docs one big thing, need for another de- ve'ops. Its policy of expansion is a continuous one. would not be sur prised to hear of announcements of more open hearthS any day"

 A lot of 400 tons of coke moved to Cuba last week.
 Presumably some of this business is due to northern coal strike.
 Inquiry for Alabama coal comes from as far as Chicago. Party cred ited with making sale of large ton mage. said matter had gotten no further than inquiry. Large brokers and operators think such movement cut of question on account of freight rates. One said:

Several other employees of the Re-

The Eskimos eat much of their meat

to mind very much the state of decay.
Cases are on record where an epidem-

yet in every case the circasses of the
dogs were eaten. The only way they
can get water, except during short

the water is too precious-and the

". VI. RY. MAY MOVE REPAIR
SHOPS

AS n result OF the long series of la
Dor difficulties and disturbances in
Hagerstown, which eliminated in the
present strike of shopmen of the
Western Maryland Railway, the Com
pany is seriously considering the adj
visibility of removing its chief repair
shops to Baltimore.
Our experience of the last few
years" said President Byers, has
shown us one thing, and that is tina;
Hagerstown is not the place for our
repair headquarters. The removal of
big railway repair plant is a ire
mendouS undertaking and | am not
prepared at present to say where we
would go if we decided to take this
drastic step, but we need not keep the
shops near"the center of our system.
The holdings of the Western Mary
land at Port Coyington would make an
excellent site We own lot of land
down there and it could easily be pro-
tested liz case of an outbreak of dis
order.
The Western Maryland shops at
Hagerstown, the most important OF
the system, employ in normal times
about 700 men, but the number work
ing when the present strike was call
ed was somewhat below this because
of the small volume of traffic the
road was handling. Hagerstown has
always been known as a railroad
tewn" and the removal of the West
ern Maryland repair shops would
deal a serious blow to the industrial
life of the city.
Mr.. Byers said that the situation is
rapidly improving and is, on the whole,
satisfactory To the railway. 1t had
been found advisable he said, to send
10 locomotives to outside shops for
heavy repairs, but the railway shops
were caring for all routine work.
