Greater Birmingham is a reality That
which was characterized as a dream has
proven itself by a majority vote of the
suburbanites to be real thing pulsating
with life. 1t was believed that the sub
urbs would vote against Greater Birming-
ham and that a solid vote from Birming-
ham would be needed to carry Greater
Birmingham on to victory. Jere c. King.
the man who made Greater Birmingham
possible, however. contended from the
first that the suburbs would ratify his
bill by a majority vote and they did.
The Birmingham vote wasn't needed at
all. 1t was a superfuety. for the suburbs
voted 1913 to I'll for it giving majority
of 3o2. This majority completely blots
out any insnuation that the suburbs
were forced in.
The total vote cast was 1896. which Is
It's less than the vote cast in this ter
ritory in the prohibition elestion, the
vote at that time being 5574. The total
Birmingham vote cast yesterday was 26a2,
the count being 24s6 for Greater Bir-
mingham and 1856 against, giving ma
jority of 2300.
