Alabama Coal Fighting For Fair Rates to
 Mississippi Valley

Alabama coal operators, through the Birmingham Traffic bureau. are making strong fight against the effort of carriers of western Ken lucky and southern Illinois to reduce the differential of 30 cents a ton on Alabama coal to Mississippi valley points. including New Orleans. They wish it reduced to % cents.
 On the other hand, the traffic bu- reau, through Secretary Charles F.. Jones, contends that the differential in favor of Alabama mines should be s1, the haulage~ from the Alabama mines being 400 to 800 miles shorter than that from the other fields
 Mir. Jones has prepared a brief on the subject to be presented the southern Freight Rate committee in Atlanta, before whom the case was recently presented in person.
 The Alabama operators claim that the small differential proposed by the carriers would take away from this state all the natural advantages to which it is entitled by reason of propinquity and unfairly discrimi- nate in favor of more distant fields.
 The coal business in the Mississip- pi valley is a large one and fight to control 1t is keen.

 AND DICTIONARIES
Every Possible Volume Util- ized by Workers in Age Herald IS" Puzzle
 Contest

Seventeen dictionaries during the past week have been in use at the Central library from early morning until closing hours at night.
 Men and women and boys and girls waited for hours to use the latest edition of the great unabridged Webster. Miss Ora Smith, the refer enee librarian. has resurreeted every known edition and still the demand is far heavier than the supply. ester day as the time neared for the end of the Age Herald's "S" contest, in creased demands came.
 At one table sat well dressed young woman with Volume of the Century dictionary; at another two old men were boring over the Stand ard; at a third sat an elderly wom- an working with March's Thesaurus. Volume 22 of the Encyclopedia Brit annica was off of the shelf, Volumes 24, 25 and 26 tthe s's'1 of the new American Encyclopedia were all in use and the International seemed not to be available to the general stu- dent. Several office and school dic- tionaries including the Directors own Lippincott edition were all in use.
 old editions of Webster. of Wor- cester. Hunters Universal. Stor- mouths and even Ainsworth's Die tionary were in demand. Several peo- pie were using the different dic- tionaries of synonyms. crabbe g, Furnelle's and Rogets. Down in one corner mother with her baby wrap ped in blankets on the table, sat with Dippincotts dictionary. Yesterday Il woman busy with Hawkins Mechan- teal dictionary and Sturges' diction- ary of architecture and biography had her lunch sent up to her. Thumbed and worn will be the "S'' pages of many of these dictionaries and happy will be the Reference Li- brarian when this contest is over Even the telephone has been con tinually ringing with questions such as Can compound words like sunrise be used?" Do you think system is 2 word. for you know the pictures are arranged in system ?' and Have you new edition printed within the last month";
