WARRIOR REFUSED THROUGH RATES
 W|THRA|EROADS
Plea Turned Down by Special Examiner-JoneS Explains Bearings of the
 Decision

Warrior river transportation ser vices application to the interstate commerce commission for order com polling the rail carriers to establish joint through rates with the barge line has been recommended to be, dis missed by J. Edgar Smith, the com missions examiner. who heard argu- ments in the case in New Orleans some time ago.
 Recommendation of the examiners is usually eoncurred in by the com mission.
 The other petition of the barge line. that for a more equitable division of the joint rates now existing ih territory served by the line in con- Junction with the rails has not been decided. That is regarded as per- haps of more direct importance in that it effects the operations of the barge line in present territory.
 Charles B. Jones, secretary of She Birmingham Traffic bureau, which, through Manager o. L. Bum, made stubborn fight for the joint rates, outlines the decision of Examiner Smith as follows:
 Jones Defines Decision
 ..Attorney Examiner Smith of the
 
 recommended dismissal of the War rior River barge line and the Ms sissippi River barge lines con- plaint seeking the establishment of additional through routes and joint rates in connection with said barge 1 lines.
 isThe complaint of the barge line was filed several months ago and the commission was requested to estab- fish additional rates and routes from l and between all territories, for ex- ample-from the southeast to the southwest via rail lines to Birming- ham Port Warrior River barge line to New Orleans. thence all rail lines beyond, the rates via said route tc be a differential under the all raj rate. Through rates and routes were i also requested from the central west via Memphis to the southeast ano from eastern territory to western territory via the barge line St. Louis to New Orleans and rail lines beyond Hard on Rail Carriers
 Examiner Smith in his tentative report is very emphatic in his state- ments that the rail carriers shoult not be asked to establish rail ans water routes which in some eases will parallel their own rail lines ant l participate Tn dl11erentlai rate which will mean a sacrifice of DOT | tion of their revenue.
 MT Smiths tentative report i. considered to be one of the stronges recommendations for dismissal of { complaint that local traffic bureal men have read in some time. Tn report Is only tentative and th' barge line as well as all cities in l terested in the complaint will b. 1 given an opportunity to file excep i tions thereto. as well as argue thu case orally before the interstate com merce commission"

CITY COMMISSION ADOPTS ORIGINAL
 AUDITORIUM SITE
Smith Proffer For Block of Park Property Gratis to City Turned Down With Res
 oIution of Thanks

Birmingham will have a municipal auditorium. and to be well on the way toward completion in the near future, was the outcome of the city commission meeting held yesterday. The auditorium will be erected on the Eighth avenue site, following the rejection by the commission of the Smith park site.
 w E. Dickson, commissioner in charge of the auditorium situation. was authorized by the commission to proceed with building using funds now at hand and to make the audi torium as large as possible with the limited funds.
 It was reported that a sum ap- proximating s42O 900 of the auditori- um bond issue is at hand to use in the building while the Eighth venue site Is said to have cost the city $sG,000 The auditorium will seat 6,O00 people. 1t was stated.
 D. c. whilldin, architect for the building and D. E. McLendon, presi- dent of the commission, will hold a conference at once, according to the commission president, looking to final agreement on proposed plans.
 In a resolution adopted by the commissioners, thanks were extend ed to Col T. o. Smith and the Smith heirs for the generosity of the offer of Smith park as auditorium site. The changing of the site would bring about legal conflict, was the reason set for the commission turn ing down the offer of the Smith heirs.
 Although the site on Eighth ave- nue was condemned by the preceding city commission. the vote was unani- nous by the present commission to go ahead with construction on 1t at present with auditorium building.
