s With the realization of Greater Birmingham the question of garbage disposal, which ohas ssfrequentiy been discussed 'in= these reports, looms up larger than ever The least that can be said for our present methods of garbage disposal is that they are crude and utterly insanitary. The only way for us to secure an up-to-date garbage department, which necessarily includes crematory, is through a bond issue Why not have this bond Issue at once instead of constantly Jeopardizing the health of great city for the sake of saving a few thousand dollars?

weeks has now recommended the
