MITCHELL SPEAKER
 FOR BUSINESS CLUB
Defends Monopoly Of Alabama
 Power Company

An address in defense of the. Ala bama Power company, which he de clared is the butt of great deal of criticism because it is q public utility and a monopoly was delivered by ". E. Mitchell, assistant, general man. ager of the corporation, before mem. bers of the American Business society at the Tutwiler hotel Friday noon. :
 T am not ashamed because I work for a monopoly" Mitchell said. "A monopoly is necessary and a natural evolution the same as it is in any oth- CT business
 Mitchell explained that an "eviI mo- nopcly' was not possible under recent leglslatiOn.
 "Take our company for example, 7 the speaker continued. ssWe are not allowed to earn more than 8 per cent and that on property that is active. No allowance is made for investment for future expansionv
 In touching on English ownership of the concern, Mitchell declared that if their faith in Alabama had been great enough to invest S16,000,OO0 here in immovable property. it seems logi- cal that this ownership should reap the profits.
 Previous to AIitchslrs talk Arthur Steck entertained with some piano SC lections, and Luther Patrick gave, a laughable talk oh "Wit and Humor."
