FLORENCE MAKES PLANS
 FOR G0RGAS CAMPAIGN

Florence, February TO- (special.) The campaign for raising funds in bauderdale county for the proposed Gorgas Memorial institute at Tusoa- loosa was formally launched here last night when the Lauderdale County Medical association pledged its sup port to the movement and appointed committee for carrying on the cam paign.
 w. L. Plonk of the state helath de- partment was present at the meeting of the physicians and outlined the plans for the establishment of the school of sanitation for the study of tropical diseases and preventative medicine.
 All southern states have agreed to join in the movement to have the memorial institute established at Tus- caloosa, where General Gorgas made his home for many years, during which time he was president of the University of Alabama.
 At the Wednesday luncheon of the Florence Exchange club the campaign was discussed and a committee was appointed to cooperate with :he Lauderdale County Medical associa- tion in carrying on the campaign to raise funds, The quota set for this state is s750,o0o, or 33c per capita.

MERIDIAN IS. PLEASED
 WITH NEW POSTMASTER


 Meridian. Miss, February 10.-The nomination of Charles J. Hyde to be postmaster here sent to the Senate yesterday by President Harding, ends a long hard fight in this city be- twen the various applicants for the position, one of the hardest in the post office affairs of the state The appointee is lifelong republican, q son of the late Capt. A. J Hyde who was also a postmaster here during former republican administration, and Is one of the city's leading bus mess men.
 The present postmaster, B. F. Hyde, has served nearly a year over the expiration of his term of ap- pointment by former President Wood roy Wilson, and has made one of the best postmasters the city has ever had Although his successor Is of the opposite political party, the ap- pointment of Mir. Hyde will be ac- ceptable to the people of this demo- cratic stronghold, as he is a man who is In every way well qualified and is highly esteemed by both demo- crats and republicans. The incom- ing and retiring postmaster are closely related, although one Is a re- publican and the other a democrat

has an option on an auxiliary steam plant located at Gorgas. Ala. so miles from Muscle Shoals. The Air Nitrate corporation has an option on nitrate plant No. 2. Both insist that the government cannot close with Ford while these options exist
 Legal authorities of the govern ment have advised the Secretary of War that he could safely ignore such options. But both companies are mak- ing a fight for their rights in the premises, and should Congress not agree with their conclusions, they will go to the supreme court.
 It is probable that were Gorgas eliminated from the contract, Ford would still stand ready to conclude his bargain.
