TRADESMAN'S
WEEKLY REVIEW
NEW INDUSTRIES FORMED IN
pIxIELAND DURING THE PAST
WEEK.

Chattanooga, June 16.-Among the
more important industries organized in
the south during the past week, as re-
ported by the Tradesman, the lumber
and wood working lines seem to be
specially, represented. 1t is noticeable
that in spite of the fact that estab-
lished industries of this class maintain
that business is quiet, new plants are
certainly being erected and new dis
tributors established. The fact of the
matter is that development throughout
the south in building and construction
lines are particularly active and it
necessarily follows that materials for
the purposes are in active demand.
Business in nearly all sections of the
south is reported as good and the out
look more than encouraging.

SAFETY BOARD
MAY MEET TONIGHT

A regular meeting of the board of
public safety is scheduled for tonight,
but it is very probable that the meet
ing will be postponed on account of
most Of the members being busy on
Saturday and because the city hall is
closed at noon Saturday. However. no
notice has as yet been given of any
postponement. neither has the call for
the meeting been issued by the clerk
as yet.
There is nothing very much out OF
the ordinary on the calendar, but. of
course, it is not known what may
come up when the meeting is held.
The pay roll for the first half of the
month is to be approved and a number
of other routine matters will receive
attention.
