-------'e'------- Washington Pleased That Facts Signed

WASHINGTON, July 9.---Action of the French chamber of deputies in voting ratification today of the four power Pacific treaty, coupled with the favorable vote last week on the naval pact. caused qualification in official circles here today although some re- gret was evidenced at the forecast that the three other Washington treaties would not be put through at once. s
 The five treaties negotiated at the arms conference are independent documents, but to certain degree they were designed to supplement each other and to extend the affec- tiveness of the general plan contem- plated by the conference for remov- ing possible causes of war. Although there will be no barrier to putting into effect the naval treaty and the Pacific pact even though Frencr ratification of the other treaties is delayed, the result of that delay may be to develop a somewhat peculiar sltuation,.
 The Chinese treaties, one dealing With customs matters in China and the other with political questions there, were worked out as a very vital element In the project of as surfing peace in the Pacific. It was through these pacts that the confer ence delegates hoped to iron out causes of international friction in China and to make less likely clashes of interest in the Far East that might lead to war.
 This aspect of the situation is re- garded as of importance just at this time in view of the disturbed con- dstions in China, where the power of the central government has been greatly weakened and bandit out rages have become numerous. It Is felt that promulgation of the Wash ington treaties might have some eff feet toward stabilizing the situation

FOUR POWER PACT
 GETS APPROVAL IF. FRENCH DEPUTIES
Submarine And Poison Gas Treaty Will Be Again
 Delayed

PARIS, July 9.-(By Associated Press.)--The four-power peace treaty signed at the Washington armament conference was ratified by the French Chamber of Deputies today The ratification Is expected to be followed shortly by the Senate's ap- proval of both this and the naval limitation treaty, adopted by the Chamber last Saturday.
 The treaty relating to the use of submarines and poison gases and protection of neutrals and non-com- batants, and the two pacts relating to China are unlikely to come before Parliament until after the summer recess.
 The two nine-power treaties, re- specting the open door on China and Chinese customs are still in commit tee, so 1t seems certain they will not be ready for legislative action before adjournment The submarine rati- fication has been completed, but no date has yet been fixed for discus sion of the pact
 x Premier Poincare long ago an nounced his intention to urge the ratification of the Washington treaties, but big questions. one after another, have come up to occupy the lime of the parliament, and some opposition developed to putting the .reaties ahead of Frances most pressing problems. The government however, began vigorously urging { their adoption when 1t became ap- parent recently that the United states was impatient at the delay.
 Now that the naval armament and Pacific treaties have been approved by the Chamber with concurrence by the Senate considered assured, the government will not pross Parliament for consideration before the recess of the other records, which are regar rded as less important to the United States ~

VALUE OF ORE TERMINAL

Every day or so 8 barge laden with manganese ore from Brazil comes up the Warrior river in tow of one of the power boats The ore arrived from Brazil months ago, but has been kept in storage at the the shipments to the steel works at Bir- mingham being made leisurely and without cramping the capacity of the barge line in its northbound freight traffic.
 This IS apt illustration of the servlce performed by the coal and ore terminal ar o,r port. But for such facl..y the barge line would be swamped at times with some specially large movement, to the detriment of other traffic, or the movement would have to be made at the higher cost of all- rail transportation. The storage capacity of the terminal permits convenience of transportation by promptly freeing ships and barges of their contents and allowing them to go their way while other barges and ships later on come at convenience to trans port the ore or coal to destination. The terminal was primarily to provide storage for coal for bunkerage and export purposes ss that sh.p, xtu uld always be ass1red of export cargoes and fuel supply when putting in at Mobile. Its other use as a storage warehouse for imported products affords convenience ETC. economy in transportation of inbound products.
 It is on jdl such facilities as these that the development of the Port of Mobile de- bends, and it is on such equipment at the port that the rest of Alabama depends for lowest-cost movements of exports and im- ports. Things like this are basic, affecting every interest in the state and every citizen. None too soon for Alabama's good can the state aid program of port improvement be inaugurated and gather headway. Every facility placed at Mobile has more than proven itself and demonstrated the wisdom of further installation of shipping con veniences.

SOUTHERN CITIES LEAD

Birmingham, the so-called Pittsburgh of the South," showed a bank clearing increase during the week ending March 15 of 65.1
 per cent over the corresponding week last year, leading the country with the excep- tion of Galveston, which was fractionaily ahead. Pittsburgh showed an increase over last year of 1.1 per cent. The Pittsburgh of the South" is not inclined to crow about it, but it is more than justified in calling attention of it's older steel-making sister b the position which the younger now occu. pies in the industrial world, and through that position, is now assuming financially. It is pleasing to the South, in glancing down the column showing the relative position of cities in bank clearings, to see that the first seven are Southern municipalities and that of the first ten leaders nine are South ern cities. There is no denial of the bear ing of these bank clearing statements. They are reflex of the conditions in the cities

BIRMINGHAM IS FAVORED

Chicago manufacturers of steel products are finding that the "Pittsburg plus" base for such products places the Chicago indus tries at disadvantage in Pacific coast mar kets. For not only must the Chicago con- cerns add to their price the freight from Pittsburg to Chicago, but they must also absorb . higher transportation cost to the Pacific coast, since Chicago products go by rail and Pittsburg products by water. There fore, Chicago manufacturers are not much cheered by prospective rail rate reductions on Pacific coast lines, because they stil, must carry and absorb "Pittsburg plus."
 Birmingham steel products must also carry the freight rate from Pittsburg to Birmng- ham, which would be a heavy handicap to the Birmingham output were it not for the fact of proximity to seaboard and favoring rates by water which more than make up the difference. The advantage this district owes to it's transportation facilities is doubt less appreciated by the manufacturers, but the public in general, which owes so much of its wealth and prosperity to the activity and success of the mills, may sometimes lose sight of the vital importance of such COHulClOuS do WotCA AWoyp OoASC AAhCo, ccdpOIt and other items that enter into Birming- hams success. Therefore, public support of every effort to clinch these advantages and to secure their permanence is properly invited. A definite public demand for a settlement on an equitable basis of the rate division between railroads and barge fines might hasten such settlement with its con- sequent and prompt advantage to this in- dustrial community. The corner grocer, the butcher, the baker, the clothier, the mer- chant of every kind survives and prospers in direct ratio to the health and activity of our local industries. They are dependent on the industries and are warranted in showing active and even aggressive concern in such adjustments as will benefit the industries Through their organizations they are able to exert an irresistible influence in behalf of this district and it's permanent prosperity.

REMEDY FOR CAR SHORTAGE

There is no disagreement between the railroads and the shipping public that there is a serious car shortage. Mir. c. B. Hutch inson, director of transportation for the American Farm Bureaeu Federation, earn estly calls this situation to the attention of the car service division of the American Rail- way Association, asking that immediate steps by the railroads be taken so that the farmer will not suffer disaster by reaon of being unable to move to the markets his in- dicated large crops. MT. Hutchinson places the shortage at 77,000 cars and attributes much of the cause to the recent strike which is still hampering transportation service. One of the railroads places the present shortage at 179,oO0 freight cars. This road is now building over 10000 cars and other roads are also rushing the work of car construction.
 One railroad, in a published statement, points to different cause of the trobule, and whether or not this is the sole cause of the shortage, it can be seen at glance that it is a very extensive cause, and also one that the shipping public itself has it in its power to remedy. The statement is made by the railroad that if shippers would load just ten per cent. more freight in each car that that alone would serve to release 100000 freight cars. The statement also shows that the average loading of all fregiht cars is but twenty-four tons, whereas the average capacity of American freight cars is forty two tons. Freight shippers are asked to give more time to the prompt loading and unload ing of cars and to put more freight into each car.
 Obviously if this statement is correct, and there appears no reason for doubting it's ac- curacy, the car shortage situation could not only be greatly relieved by the loading of cars to nearer their capacity, but it could be relieved at once. It would seem the part of wisdom for business organizations to take prompt action in urging upon all ship pers that they give their closest attention to the matter of properly loading cars and in promptly releasing them at their destina- tions. Certainly, to avert crisis, which MT. Hutchinson sees for the farmer unless re- medial measures are taken at once, every effort should be made by the public as we'll as by the railroads.

A Timely Editorial
Income Tax Proves Prosperity
(Pittsburg Gazette-Times)

GazeLt6-1llueSJ
 A good many persons are paying Uncle Sam larger amounts on ac- count of income this year than last. Thousands who paid nothing last year will make contributions to the federal treasury this year. This is good for the nation and by no heans bad for the individuals af- fected. Some will feel that they are mulcted. In reality they are but shouldering their fair propor- tion of the costs of government that is conducted for the common bene- fit.
 The amounts which individuals pay in excess of what they paid a year ago, if they paid anyt.llng, rep resent the greater prosperity that has come to them. Nineteen twenty-one was not a good year. Nineteen-twenty-two was not bad one. Nineteen-twenty-three will be better than it's immediate predeces- sor. That is worth moments $ reflection. Because it is so good fewer people are sensible of any hardship in handing over to the in- ternal revenue collectors the amount of income tax due. It be- ing the common practice to live for the day only, none but finely or ganized individuals make provision as they go along for meeting de- ferred claims. The budget principle is as applicable to home manage ment as it is to corporation or gov ernment business. The householder who set aside an equitable portion of his salary every time he re- ceived it in 1922 faced the income tax paying period with equanimity. He had the money that he must pay to Uncle Sam. If he has put off making his return until the last moment at which it was receiv- able under the law, he faced no or deal.
 In truth, taxpaying should not be painful or distasteful to any. Your tax money yields certain positive benefits. While often it appears that we do not get as much for the money as we should. we know tha. we could not get anything that gov ernment provides unless we pro. vlded the money. Individual action or community action would not give us the order nor the protection and opportunity which we have. With out organized government for which the people pay we should have chaos and the perils that go with it. The more each one of us contributes in taxes, the more concerned we should be about maintenance of the gov ernment and it's proper functioning. The more prosperous we are, the more we stand in need of that order of which government is the symbol.
 We ought to pay income taxes with grace for the amount each one pays signifies in sense the de- gree in which he has benefited through maintenance of the national organization.
