RATES b|G FACTOR|
 IN GETTING M|LLS'
Effort Made To Get Better AL
 IoWance On Alabama

Location of textile mills Tn Ala bama depends, among other things. on allowances of rates on concen- tration of cotton grown in Alabama and destined to Alabama mill cen- ters, according to traffic experts. This matter will come before the Alabama Public Service commission for final adjudication on June [.
 At present. according to traffic officials, cotton grown In Alabama may be concentrated in Alabama cities like Birmingham and go thence to mills in Carolinas at a through rate which, they declare, Is lower than the combination local rates to the Alabama mill center. The result, they say, is that the Alabama mill pays a higher freight on it's cotton grown right here in Alabama than a Carolina mill does for the same cotton.
 The traffic men say the rates all lowed on concentrated cotton nov ing to the eastern mills will also tion of local rates to Alabama mills. New England thus getting Alabama cotton at lower total charges than Alabama mills.
 It will be contended in argument for the right of concentrating Ala bama cotton at Alabama points that the textile industry in Alabama is and has been hampered by the de- nial of these concentrating rates, while the textile industry of the Carolinas has been helped by con- centration rates denied Alabama.

We Shall Not Sleep

In Flanders fields The peoples blow, Between the crosses, Row on row, That mark our place And in the sky The larks still bravely Singing fly Scarce heard amidst The guns below. We are the dead. Short days ago we lived, Felt dawn, Saw sunsets glow, Loved and were loved, And now we lie In Flanders field. Take up our quarrel With the foe. To you from falling hands We throw the torch; Be yours to hold it high; If ye break faith With us who die We shall not sleep Though peoples grow In Flanders fields.
