 awakening to the far-reaching benefits
 that will be harvested from the Detroit, Birmingham and New Orleans boulevard And they, too, commence to fully realize
 that the government should and will ap- propriate money for the construction of this north and south highway if the peo- pie go after it in earnest. "The government has always given the people whatever they consistently de- manded, and the keen intelligences of the masses ar quick to grasp the huge and
 momentious dimensions of this movement and what it means as creator of wealth in the south.
 Enormous Tourist Traffic. "A 60-foot boulevard, lined with 20-foot grass plats, majestic forest and fruit trees will spread enlightenment broad cast many miles east and west of it's course It will elevate the standard of education and stimulate agriculture and send the wheels buzzing in scores of industries.
 "The tourists traffic to Birmingham will amount to more than five millions a year. An enterprise which means so much for the country's development that
 will not cost the people one extra penny is worthy of our most deliberate and im- mediate consideration.
 "All that it requires to secure this magnificent highway of a paradise mould is enthusiastic and continued effort. Let everyone talk lakesrto-gulf boulevard and it will not be long until this much talk ing and thinking will crystalline into a living reality This procedure has made Birmingham what it is today, and the greatest worlds highway connecting the Iron City with the large cities of the east west and south. will increase its population to more than million in 15 years.
 q have found no city in our country so literally surrounded by a wealth of resources as Birmingham and because of natures mine of wealth surrounding Ala bama's famous metropolis, it's citizens should be most enthusiastic in boosting the boulevard. We are facing an epoch making period. Every individual should place himself on record as being a shover
 of the chariot wheels of progress. Smile, push and be happy while you watch the dawn of the south's kingly future"
