MOTOR PLANT AND STOVE WORKS ARE CONs|DE ER|NGH0ME
Combined Capital Stock Of $5,100,0OO Represented
 By Two Concerns

An automobile manufacturing plant and a stove works. with com bined capital stock ef s5,1OO.OoO are favorably considering Birmingham as a permanent home. according to announcement Monday by O. L. Bum, secretary manager of the Chamber of Commerce, who is engineering details with the two concerns.
 A meeting of the industrial com mittec of the Chamber of Commerce willk be held at 2:30 clock Tuesday afternoon in Mr. Bunns office when credentials of the concerns will be gone over, details cf. their tentative bfafis discussed and recomnnenda- Birmingham to say whether or not the new industries are wanted, ac- cording to Mir. Bum.
 The automobile plant locks better from a commercial standpoint than any proposition handled by the and negotiations have been under way for some months. They manu- facture one of the finest looking cars on the market, ranging from S1.S00 to about s2,500. photographs of which are in Mir. Bunns possession. The company has passed the experi- mental stage. have had their cars ltSICu anu pi ONtd dIluf dtSOIuluS lO Mir. Bum, are asking practically nothing from Birmingham other than d location. cooperation and good will. They will, of course MT. Bum states, offer stock for sale to citizens of this city, though nothing depends on that. No stock selling campaign is anticipated.
 Stove Works Near Here.
 The stove works. now within a few hundred miles of Birmingham have capital stock of S100,000 and are using Birmingham pig iron in the manufacture of their product. They employ about 200 men and desire a larger field. better railroad facilities and to eliminate the necessity of hav- ing pig iron shipped to the factory. Arrangements with them are about completed, MT. Bum stated.
 Should negotiations with the auto bile plant be carried successfully through the company will erect a $100,00o plant in this city, and are said to be ready to conclude the deal. Just how many men they. will em- ploye is a matter dependent more Or less on the rapidity with which their cars are marketed, and the progress made In disposing of various details of their establishment.
 Birmingham has steered clear of stock promotion and selling schemes Of every description and has turned down any number of such offers. The Chamber of Commerce and the citi- zens of the city welcome any whole some new enterprise. and offer the best city in the south. adequate ship ping facilities plenty. of raw material and cooperation. This is the sole basis on which we are figuring with these new concerns, and they appear anxious to come on that basis. l think we can predict these two ac- quisitions to the manufacturing life of Birmingham.

 Says Meeting Unlawful.
 Governor Walton reiterated his charge that the proposed meeting would be an unlawful assemblagt dominated and controlled by the so- called invisible empire commonly known as the Ku Klux Klan."
 He declared that since the Ku KluA Klan was proclaimed an enemy o1 the state of Oklahoma under his mar tial law proclamation of SeptembeI s15 the session therefore would be ir defiance of the laws of the state aRd an attempt to break the peace.
 As a precaution against any at tempt o fthe legislators to meet else where should they be barred from the house chamber at the state capitol the governor also directed Adjutant General Markham to disperse the meeting "at any other time or place in the state Of Oklahoma"
 "The troops will be ordered to shoot to kill if that is necessary to prevent the assembly," Governor Walton told newspaper men. "l hope however, that no such extreme measures will be necessary"
 "All male citizens of the state" be- tween the ages named are meant in his order to citizen soldiers to be ready for duty Governor Walton ex- plained.
 The governor denied he intended taking action in the federal court to determine the legal status of the pro- posed meeting.
 He likewise denied that ke had sought federal aid in his war on the ku KluX Klan.

 While publishers were loathe to discuss their losses of the past week. lest some might think they were weakening in their determination to have it out to the end with the strikers, they privately admitted tre- mendous losses in overhead and hun dreds Of thousands of dollars addi- tional losses in advertising.
