FOREIGN CAPITAL IS WHAT WE NEED,
 SAYS M. W. BUSH
Adverse Talk About It Is Bunk" Declares Coal and Iron Operator
 in Talk

"rhe adverse talk regarding for eign capital that has been going the rounds latterly. is bunk-the purest and utter bunk-nothir.s else but bunk" said Morris Bush, coal, coke and iron operator. addressing the optimist club yesterday
 "we ought to cut 1t out. It is small town stuff. The interests, which ] and my associates represent, con : template considerable investment in the near future. We will welcome Chinese, Japanese, East Indian DDS DDS ton, New York, or English capi.al that Is willing to come in with us and help develop Alabama.
 Once outside, foreign capital in- vests itself in Alabama, erects plants here and stakes its fortunes here IL has become Alabama capital, because if is subject to the laws of the state the same as other capital and must bow to the same conditions as local capital.
 We are trying to sell Alabama to the outside world. We are lnVluhe the outsider to invest here. We wan him to invest here. Then why not cut out the bunk we have been inauisins about foreign capital2

 Out of The Ashes
 Mr. Bush repeated his review oi Roger W. Babson's statement thai Alabama lacks pep" "It does not said MT. Bush. Before the war we were 100 per cent agricultural. The war wiped out property and it wipec out. the young men who were capable of adapting themselves to new con ditions. Then for 10 years We were robbed by carpetbaggers as no peopl' ever were robbed. Then we had to struggle against the prejudice agains' us that was created by yellow fever and malaria. 1t has not been so long since these scourges have been lifted one by a southern man, Gorgas.
 Some Developments
 We did not have opportunity for real development until 20 years ago and we have given good ac- count of ourselves. We lead the world  in production of peanuts and sweet potatoes on our farms. Birmingham makes more iron pipe than all other pipe centers combined. We deserve the credit for what we have accom- plished because we are forced, on ac- count of our sparse surrounding pop ulation, to seek markets far afield We have all the difficulties that go with marketing at a distance, yet we have overcome them and are sur mounting them. We have spent $50, 900. 900 in the past few years on de- veiopment of our by-product industry and are among the very top-notchers.
 What Is Needed
 What we need now more than any thing alse here in Birmingham is such a strong backing of commer- cial organization that instead of an annual income of s25,00o, 1t shall have 5000 members and $125,o0o so that we may intelligently and persistently present the real facts to the invest ing public and bring more of that out side money here; as much as we can get of it."

Name Four Places
to Obtain Permits
for Tourist Fires

Four sources for them to obtain camp
fire permits in the Sun river camps
have been named by E. II. Myrick SUI
.pervisor of the Lewis and Clark for
est.
Places where the permits may be
obtained are: From the forest service
patrolman who covers the entire dis
lance from the forest boundary to
Arsenic creek and return every day
from Mr.. Dix, who has charge of the
dam for the reclamation service and
resides in the reclamation cabin just
within the forest boundary; from Mrs.
Allan, at the Allan hotel; from the
Hannah Gulch ranger station, which is
located across the river, a cable car
being used in crossing the river, locat-
ed around the first rocky point above
the dam.
Supervisor Myrick says the govern
ment is doing everything within reason
no make it easy for the public to obtain
permits. He said that these four
sources were provided in order that
q permit might be obtained from a
second party should the patrolman not
be met, since it is impossible for him
TO remain at the boundary all day. as
part of his duties are to check up the
different camp fires and see that the
terms of the permits are being COM
piled with.

Within the next 10 days or two
weeks the first tests of the Alberta

concluded. Within that time it should
be ascertained whether or not there is
oil on this side of the imaginary line
as well as on the Montana side. The
Canadian operators are well satisfied
with the outlook and are confident OF
bringing in good producers.
Meanwhile, no less than five other

When 2 Cars Crash

Georue z. Wilson, a Great

injured at | O'Clock Tuesday morn
ina at Kootenai Falls when ne
was caught between two cars. His

we're brkoen and he sustained a
had cut In the left eye. He was
removed to the hospital at LIBBY,
where little hope Is entertained for
his recovery. His home Is IN
Whitefish. .
Wilson was engaged In claiming
up a bad order car at n time
Of the accident. The train. which
was an extra freight. had been
broken in two and Wilson was IN
between the cars to chain up n
broken draw bar. Just at this
moment the engineer claims to
have had a signal to back, which
he did, crushing the brakeman be-
tween the cars. 1t would seem
that a misunderstanding in signals
was responsible and no more can
be learned until the matter Is
Thoroughly investigated.
