A. C. L. Acquires Stock.

Permission was last Friday
granted to the Atlantic Coast

the Coast Line already owned

The Rockingham Railroad was

New Transmission Line.

The Yadkin River Power Co.,
has surveyed and is now assemb-
ling material for building a new
transmission line from Blewett
Falls to Roberdel No. 2, which
will supply Rockingham and the
surrounding mills. The present
power for town and community
is brought over the regular long
distance lines, but with the in
creased needs of the community
for power, it has been thought
best to provide a separate line.
Accordingly, this line will short
ly be built, on wooden poles,
paralleling the steel tower line;
there are two distributing points
from the line at Midway, for
Steele's, Midway, Rockingham
etc; and at Roberdel No. 2 for
adjacent mills.
About $500 h. p. is now dis
tributed for this community, but
with the new line about $500 will
be used. The length of the new
line is 9 miles, or the length of
10 steel towers.

Strike Situation.

The shopmen Of the railroads of the
country have been on strike now for ten
days. The strike may end at any minute,
or may get worse by the Engineers etc.
voting to also walk out.
President Harding Tuesday issued a
proclamation which in effect states that
the striking shopmen are committing an
unlawful act in having gone on strike
against the orders of the Government
Labor Board; and the President warns
these strikers and their sympathizers
that any attempt at violence will result
in troops being called out. He reaffirms
the right of men who wish to work to dc
so without molestation by strikers. The
firm position taken by the President un
doubtedly spells the eventual defeat Of
the strikers.

ORERAMMERGAU Bavaria, Marcu
1s.-(By The Associated Press)-Prepa-
rations for the first postwar revival OF
the Passion Play have progressed suf-
ficiently TO enable the committee of
elders TO announce that the final dress
rehearsal will be held May .. The first
regular performances will be given
May a.
Thirty-fve thousand applications for
seats and sleeping accommodations al
ready have been received from abroad
and, while the local management has
not yet received indications as to the
extent to which Germans will patron
iae the productions of the ploy. 1t as
sumes that German attendance Will
more than quadruple the foreign pat
ronage.
Anticipating an unusual inhux of vis-
itors In July and August. the manage
ment has decided to give wednesday
performances during these months.
Economic conditions have obliged the
village elders considerably to amplify
their directing staff. not so much az
concerns the production of the play as
to solve the problem Of accommodate
Ing thousands of visitors for whom
the comforts and convcniences OF
travel before the war are now not
available.
Tho conditions under which the play
will be revived this year have shocked
the rural simplicity OF these peasant
play producers and. while determined
to prevent the sacred enterprise from
becoming basely commercialized. they
are now beginning to realize that the
wars aftermath has produced an
economic environment with which they
are compelled to reckon.
Tho municipality of ObcrammcrRau
has premptorily rejected proposition
that II levy n tax on foreign visitors
which. It declares. would be out OF
harmony with tho origin and traditions
of the play and also would conflict with
the purpose of the present revival
which Is regarded ono way of
achieving reconciliation between Cor
many and the other nations. Tho town
fathers. however. announce that they
hsvo hcen forced to assume consider
abic initial expense in preparing for
tho production reconstructng the tho
