SYRUP MAKING PLANT
 NOW BEING SOUGHT
 AT ALEXANDER CITY

ALEXANDER CITY. Ala, Jan 30. Special )-There is we'll defined sentiment in Alexander City for the establishment of syrup manufac- turing plant to be located in this place and to manufacture a high grade syrup for the market.
 The syrup made ip Tallapoosa and Coosa counties has no superior in taste as 1t seems to have a taste that is very delicious and there has never been any difficulty in disposing of it when it has been tried. The only a standard that would be put on the market
 It is for the purpose of making it standard that syrup manufacturing plant is being discussed. The Idea, is to put it up in small cans and to es- tablish a market for it.
 Much syrup is made in this sec ton of the state, both of the sugar cane and sorghum varieties, and both have flavor that cannot be excelled. A plant that would standardize and make it all of the same, grade, would prove to be another big industry for this section of Alabama. The Chamber of Commerce has the matter under consideration.
 MANY FRUIT TREES BOUGHT
 Two thousand fruit trees and more than 800 pecan trees have been bought -operatively in this section of the state during the fall months. The people of this section have been buying their fruit and pecan trees o-operatively for the past few years and it has proven great thing for them, as they are enabled to get the trees for less than half what they would be compelled to pay if they were to buy them individually.
 Strawberry plants, seeds and other products are bought in the same manner and this has also proved to be advantageous to those who have engaged in strawberry raising.

FOR INTOLERANCE
Legion Makes Plea for Ameri-
can Unity in Cincinnati
Address,
BIZ Times Slnecinl

By Times Specidl
CINCINNATI, Ohio, July alvin
M. Owsley, national commander of
the American Legion made strong
plea for American unity, regardless Of
nationality or religious beliefs in an
address Sunday at the cornerstone
laying Of the ST. Vincent De Paul
Church.
Without naming the Ku-Klux Khan,
Commander Owsley, Protestant adj
dressing a Catholic group, referred to
those who would beat down the rights
Of you people"
There is no room in America for
intolerance, no thought that should
divide US, for we are living under the
supreme law Of the United States, the
constitution, which gives the right to
worship God according to the dictates
Of our conscience" he declared.
Owsley assailed radical tendencies
prevailing in the nation in recent
years and urged deportation of all
persons who would seek to tear down
the flag of the nation.
America is calling today as she
never called before for strong men
and women to stand and preach the
doctrines of America There are
those who would beat down the rights
of your people and interfere with the
pursuit of your religious beliefs.
There is no room for intolerance, no
thought that should divide u.s."
In denouncing the radical element,
he said Germany had been sending
messengers to America to breed a
Strange form Of propaganda that
would bring destruction to America
and her institutions.
Let us bring every heart and every
mind of every man, woman and child
in America today TO realize the power
and glory of American citizenship
