DOCKS PLAN One
GETS APPROVAL
John t. Cochrane Will Ac-
cept Valuation Of
His Property

MOBILE, Ala, March 29.-Plan one.
of the state dock commission, calling
for development Of that large area To-
Gated along the river between One and
Three Mile creeks, was practically taken
from the tentative classification this
afternoon when John Il. Cochrane, act
ing as an Individual property owner
and as president of the Alabama, Ten
nessee and Northern railroad, informed
Gen. William L. Sibert, chairman and
engineer, of his intention to accept the
valuation as. fixed. Property involved
Is almost one-third of the total shown
for plan one, and General Sibert ex-
pressed belief that "the decision of Mr..
Cochrane practically assures develop
ment of plan one."
General Sibert placed much sig
nificance in the development Of yester-
day, due to the fact the Cochrane and
Alabama, Tennessee and Northern prop
erty is located in both front and rear
and the acceptance of the boards yalu-
alton thereby fixes valuation which is
considered fair for other property which
Is involved, it was announced.
The brief announcement of the writ
ing of what was considered one of the
closing chapters in the port develop
ment story did not say what amount of
money would be paid for the property,
but made it quite clear that Mr.. Cocl-
rane had accepted the decision of the
board.

Row" has gone from the Gulf Of
: Mexico temporarily at least, the

tired to make arrangements to meet
