Referring to his oejn pany having gained access to the Mississippi Gulf Coast,, he states that development of that region whl be one of the principal aims of his road in the future, it a winter play groun dand advertising it -extensively in the North' and West. President Markham says: “The outlook for the South was never more promising. With capital being invested heavily in the Southern property and industries, with increased production in virtually line 'of agricultural and industrial ac tivity, with great activity in railway construction and harbor improve ments, for increased commerce by land and sea. all. indications are that the South is entering upon an eta of pros perity ami expansion hitherto un known.” Henry Walters, chairman of the Atlantic Coast Line, wires: “I believe'’that the Sotttlffiagt has now established a degree of prosperity whieh will attract a class of white population capable of aiding us to utilize our vast territory of produc tive- land, our great mineral deposits and our thousands of waterpower*. Great as has been the growth^of the Southeast in the past ten years, the next ten will be for greater,”- I’resident Warfield of tbe Seaboard Air Line says: "Tlie Southern country presents greater opportunity for investment in business ventures than any other sec tion of this 'country. I believe that the climatic conditions of the South ern -country—and when I say tfouth arn country I mean all of it—the character of' the soils, the living con ditions afforded and the -iverage low pj’lcc of farm lauds must necessarily bring to the South a great ntfmber of those who now have their'business and living in the rigorous climates of the Northwest and far East.” I President V- A-i Downs,, of the Cya tral of Georgia Railway writes: ‘'Condititons in Georgia and Ala bama. as affecting agriculture, indus try and business, are generally more favorable than they have been in years. There is an increased tonnage on such eonimfidities as cotton, urn l>cr. logs and Wood, fertilizer anil fer tilizer material, fruits, melons and, vegetables, stone, sand and brick,' ce ment an.. lime, nsval stores. cottonseed oil. iron and steel, castings ami ma chinery and cotton-factory products and merchandise in carload lots.

During one day last month the num ber of Southbound passengers totaled 2630, and last Sunday a new high mark was estholishejl at 3030. The featest number of trains operated ov single division in one day during last Winter Was 56. One day last j weel|' WFoperated 62 trains in one di-j vision. With 1 ample facilities, the I maximum capacity for operating j trains satisfactorily on a single-track I railway is placed at 40 trains a day. | With this greater number of trains, that have been tbandled, it can be fax-! fly seen how remarkable our opernt- 1 ing performance has been. As the I Boupth grows the Southern railroads must keep pace. Freight traffic on the Southern roads has nearly doubled in ten years. In this regard I will say that the freight business handled by the Florida East Coast Railway dur ing June of 1925, was 104 per cent, greater than was handled in June, 1924. and, conservatively speaking, we are handling 60 per cent, more freight now than we did a year ago. Certainly our freight ' business has more than doubled in the past two years." Mr. Rodenbaugh states tiiat he has been greatly handicapped by short age of qpmoKm labor. He has recruit ed an available labor to be* found In Georgia, Louisiana and Texas, and now has agents throughout the West and East sending workmen down from New Yprk, Cleveland and other large cities. To date they have recruited about 4,000 additional laborers in this way., «. W. E. Frt*uch , general industrial agent of ths Georgia & Florida Rail way says : “Florida has set the example ’and that stute has been tho instrument employed for placing the entire South before the people of this nation and of the world. The reflex- action can be nothing other than extremely benefi cial to all Southern] state*. Georgia, for instance, is reaping a wonderful benefit as a result of Florida's thor ough and splendid advertising. These conditions cannot do otherwise than to spread broadcast over the entire South, provided our industrial lead ers and financiers will lfoster the cause.” - Raul C. Green, industrial agent of the Clim-htield Railroad Company, writes: "The territory served by the Clinch field is thoroughly animated by an axtountjingrecpgnition and swift real ization of Jtslvast industriui potential ities anil achievements. The largest single industry ever to locate in the South, tlie American Bamberg rayon injlls, lias just come into our terri tory. We have merely scratched tlie surface of our natural resources anti industry in ottrr territory is yet iu its infatlcy.” G. A. Cardwell, agricultural ami in dusti-ill! agent of tbe Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, writes: At last the peoplle of the South themselves have begun to appreciate the wonderful possibilities of this sec tion. and with this awakening con structive leadership lias developed. The South, arising from her long, post-bellum steep, stretched into wake fulness anil became conscious that wealth, 'enormous wealth, had been pouring into her lap. Is it Sny won der then that capital anil labor, the farmer, homeseeker and a vast army of pleasure-ssekersr are hastening Soutli wardSo participate in the present and future prosperity of this most highly furorail section':". Other railroad officials wrote in tlie same strain of betterment. Bare Knees.

Typographical Union reports an active membership of 70,372. Post and Flagg’s Cotton Letter. New York, Sept. 4.—Recent cover ing, while by no means eliminating the short interest, has served to ease the technical position sufficiently to make it improbable that even if the report disappoints the bears the con sequences will not be sensational un less the figures bring about a sharp reversal of speculative sentiment which is hardly likely. It is noted, however, that various private re lKirts, while estimating the crop at over 14, sb >w an actual falling off in expectancy'as compared with the end of July. There are quite enough complaints of deterioration so provide the groundwork for the same . develop ment in connection' with the official figures. It however, the report shows better than 14 it is probable , that much of the short interest which has been covered lately will be promptly put oat again in competition with the increased hedge selling that ,Jor Economical Transportation V ■T Public Acclaims this I jj the finest Low Priced Coach H lllli Built on the new Chevrolet But in addition it is a beautiful 138 I chassis with construction typo car.
