NUN EXEMPTIONIST WIN FIGHT AGAINST
 TAX-FREE ME EASURE
Bill Providing Five-Year Ex- emption For Cotton Mills
 Postponed Indefinitely
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD !


 Non-tax eXemptlonists won their fight against the bill granting ex- emptions from taxation to new cot ton mills and additions to cotton mills Friday afternoon. One of the last important acts of the house of representatives before the time ar rived to quit the consideration of legislation was the indefinite post ponement of the Powell measure, which passed the senate two weeks ago and which provided exemptions from taxation for period of five years to cotton manufacturing plants In which as much as S50,000 was in- vested.
 The bill and pending amendments were postponed by rising vote of 70 to 2S. No record vote was taken. When the bill was called Repre- sentative Long offered an amend ment restoring the tax exemptions on water power companies in so far as developments already made were involved. Exemptions on power de- velopments were withdrawn by the legislature at the spring session. and the state tax commission is now pro- ceeding with the valuation of the property for taxation.
 MT. Long insisted that the legisla- ture not establish new tax eXemp- tions until 1t had restored the ex- emptions already granted and Ahal SSQ IAdl lHt IBDCdi OL lnS GA- emption statutes was a repudiation of the promise of a preceding legis- lature
 Representative Grady Tiller of Ge- neva warned the lawmakers that the Long amendment would undo tho work of the first session, would re- store the exemptions of the power companies and would be a return to the old system.
 His motion to table the Long amendment was carried 57 to 8.
 Representative Mike Sollie then offered an amendment granting eX- emptions from taxation to all per sons who invest as much as $500 in live stock raising or in agriculture. He made an address in which he in- sisted that stock raisers and farm CTS were as much entitled to tax exemptions as cotton mills.
 His amendment and the original bill were then laid on the table by a rising vote. Friends of the cotton mill exemption bill contended that 1t would mean the location of sew eral large cotton plants in Alabama during the next five years. When the bill was considered in the senate the assertion was made that two or three large companies were figuring on locating in the Tennessee valley and had held up a final decision pending the action of the legislature on the exemption bill.

DRAINAGE PROGRESSING
Seven Miles Of Ditch Drcdged In
 Fayette-Lamar District

AUBURN, Ala, Sept. 2S.-(Special.) At very satisfactory rate work is going forward on the Fayette-La- = mar drainage district No. 1 in Fay cite and Lamar counties, according to a recent report made by P T. Simons, drainage engineer for the agricul- tural college here.
 In this report MT. Simons states that dredging began less than three months ago and that to date seven miles of ditch has been constructed. with indications that tLs main ditch which will be 40 miles in length will be completed in 1925.
 The work is being done by steam shovel dredge of the largest type mounted on a barge 90 feet long and 35 feet in width. The shovel excavates 2A cubic yards of earth, | roots. or stumps at each stroke. and to push the work to completion day and night crews operate it continu- ously.
 The ditch, which is haing dug is 50 feet wide and nine feet deep, and when completed it will drain 2",000 acres of fertile land lying along the Luxapalilla river between Winfield. Ala, and Columbus, Miss.

sons for moving vary from an er- fort to solve the servant shortage or heat threatened coal price gouging, to a pursuit of lower rents or more comfortable quarters.
 A canvass by the news agents of housing conditions In this, the last national moving season of the year, reveals that, generally speaking there has been an improvement In housing facilities and that rents range approximately around the fig ure they were a year ago.
 As authorities attribute a majority of divorces today to worries over servant problems, high rents and unhappy living conditions growing out of inability to find desirable home at a price the family can af- ford, the following will give an idea of what your friends in other parts of the country are facing as they move their address at this time; New York: Rents generally are about the same as a year go.
