all the aspects Of a frst-class political

PITTSBURG STEEL VALUES
ITS WATERWAYS

Alabama is not the only state interested in
the development of inland waterways Pitts
burg steel makers are quite as concerned about
rivers and quite as much in earnest in ex-
tending their service. In the Waterways Jour
nal, the Jones G. Laughlin Steel company
says:
"Pittsburg is able to hold her place at the
head of steel making in this country almost
solely on account of the advantages she al
ways has had in water transportation. The
Pittsburg. district has three such facilities
at command. One of these is the great lakes
transporting millions of tons of ore 500 of
the 1000 miles from Minnesota to Pennsyl-
vania.
another is the Ohio river, used for inter-
change of materials between steel works and
for delivery of mill products into the south
and southwest. But the principal advantages
are the Monongahela river, canalized nearly
a century ago, and the Allegheny river, now
being canalized. Both these rivers flow
through rich coal fields. 1t is less costly to
bring the ore to the coal than to take the
coal to the ore, otherwise the steel industry of
America would be conferred around Duluth
Alabamas inland water system not only PEN
etrates her fields of raw material, but also
carries finished products to Mobile for coast
wise and export shipment

POINTED PARAGRAPHS

From the Chicago News.
When it thunders the thief becomes hon.
est.
All men are born helpless and some never
outgrow it.
The chains of destiny-why they are moth
ing but cobwebs!
The virtues we are proudest of we practice
because we have to.
A good sentiment is a most excellent thing,
but good practice is better
1t seems as though marriage really requires
a course in preparatory school.
Patience and perseverance sometimes are so
persistent that they call for the strong-arm
treatment.
The sincere regard some men have for the
truth is evinced by the way that they leave t
undisturbed.
The man who could do just as he peases
probably would try to raise a bull pup that
wouldn't mind.
The strongest argument against the prac-
tiee of medicine that we know anything about
is the case a young doctor can make out against
an old one.

BIRMINGHAM HAS LOST
A LOYAL CITIZEN

L. p Hill, editor and publisher Of the Ems
ley Enterprise for 20 years, was a genial and
lovable man who had friends in all walks of
life. He was noted for his loyalty to the
Birmingham district. In the columns of his
paper and wherever he went he extolled the
advantages of Birmingham. He lived to see
his optimism and faith in the future more.
than justified. In 20 years this city and dis
trict have undergone remarkable expansion.
The familiar figure of Mr.. Hill will be
missed for many day on the streets of Bir-
mingham. He liked to go about and talk with
people, and in all he said or did showed
keen enjoyment of life. With distinguished
ancestry behind him, he was always kindly,
unassuming gentleman, helpful wherever his
services were needed and living up to his
civic and religious ideals with constancy that
was truly admirable
To get the most out of the few troubled
years we spend on this earth, to find more of
joy than sadness and to harm no one is ever
commendable. Mr.. Hill was that type of man.

"MILE-HICH" BABY CAMP

From the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
FL Paso, Tex, is city that is not
squeamish with hospitals, be they for the
treatment of tuberculosis or other ailments
That municipality recently has been preen-
ing itself over the addition of "Mile-High
Baby Camp to her sanitaria. That the place
will add to the prosperity of Ell Paso is the
belief of those who have devoted their lives
to the care of invalids.
We have just been reading words of praise
for the new undertaking by DR.. A. C. Scott
of Temple, Tex, chief surgeon of the Santa
Fe system. DR.. Scott says this unique sani-
tarum should be regarded as one of the truly
big enterprises of the aggressive Ell Paso COM
munity. The very idea of such an institution
designed to bring back the flush of health to
frail children and to give them new life In
pure air a mile above sea level is one to
arouse public appreciation.
The camp is as yet only at its very begin
ming and a certain amount of experimental
work will yet have to be done before it will
be assured that the best technique has been
adopted but DIR. Scott declares that as soon
as the demonstration is complete babies will
be brought from far and near to be made
strong at the unique camp DR.. Scott in
spected all the hospitals of Ell Paso, but the
'Mile-High' camp was the one that most
aroused his admiration.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
OPPOSED TO BANKHEAD

To the Editor Of The Age-Herald:
/ note the Birmingham News, the Montgon,-
cry Advertiser and certain other newspapers
and individuals are boosting John H. Bank
head of Jasper for chairman of the coming
democratic state convention, and in connection
with this matter, would like to have you pub
lish the vote cast in this county (Mr Bank
heads home county, for delegate to the state
convention, in order that the people of Ala
bama in general, and the delegates to this
convention in particular, may know just how
we'll Mr. Bankhead stands with the people
back home.'
The vote follows: Stanley 1896, Burr
1852, Brown 2,818, Bankhead 2,S07, Barber
2,779, Bowie 2,773, Pitts 2,711, Roach 2,60s,
Mrs. Greene 1929, Swanson 2,121, O'NeaI
1880, White 2,o35, Williams 1925.
From this it will be seen that Mr.. Bank
head fourth in his home county, where
we familiar with his record, being asso-
cliated with him nearly all the time, in some
way or another, but most Of the time dealing
with him as the attorney and representative
of some big corporation. The three men VINO
led Mr. Bankhead are practically total strang-
ers to the people of this county, and Mr.
Bankhead was the only candidate for this
position from Walker county. This does not
speak very we'll for Mr. Bankhead, and think
that l safely say that if the people had
any say in selecting the chairman of this
convention about to convene in Montgomery,
Mr.. Bankhead would not be their choice.
I know it to be fact that the majority
of the thinking democrats who know anything
at all of this man and his past record are
opposed to him for state chairman; and even,
as for that matter, are opposed to him for
United States senator should he be selected
to run in 1924. S. B. KIRKPATRICK.

MOBILE REGISTER PRESENTS
THE MOBILE OF TODAY

1t is difficult to do full justice in brief
notice to the 120-page, eighty-second annual
trade review of the Mobile Register, published
September /.
Alabama has not realized Mobiles growth.
Accustomed to associate Mobile with the states
early history, we have not been fully aware
of her remarkable progress in the past 10
years, notably in the past five. Mobile has
not only grown commercially, but variety OF
large Industries have developed. Not the least
important of these are the surrounding agri-
cultural interests. The Satsuma orange has
developed formidable rivalry with the Flor
ida orange Pecan groves are extensive and
lucrative, and the truck growing of that Sec
ton is larger and more remunerative each
year.
Mobile is realizing her strategic position as
a port She is Alabama's gateway to the ma
tions. North Alabama sends the finished prod
ucts of her steel mills and cotton from her
farms to other peoples through the port of
Mobile. Mobile is the port of entry for raw
disc from the world over. The port now has
depth of 80 feet and the largest vessels put
in there since fuel oil and coal in abundance
for bunkeragc purposes have been provided.
Mobiles shipbuilding and ship repairing
yards have been equipped to fashion and reno
waite the largest ships that float. New steam
shin lines have entered that port almost weekly
bidding for the trade between Mobile and the
Pacific coast, the West Indies and South
America. Large importing and wholesale
houses handling flour and other staple prod
ucts brought from the Atlantic and Pacific
coast have been located there to distribute
them in the southeastern states.
These and many other evidences of the de-
velopment of Alabamas seaport city and sur
roundngs are presented in this edition. But
Mobile cannot serve Alabama as she should
unless the state gets behind her only port with
the mass strength of all the people, including
the manufacturer, farmer, banker merchant,
salaried man and wage-earner.
Without Mobile. Birmingham manufacturing
would not have its most economical outlet
through the Warrior river. Certainly not a
man or woman voter in Birmingham can az
ford to register other than on the side of the
amendment The eighty-second annual trade
review of the Mobile Register is a most con-
vincing argument in favor of the amendment.
