 We are today mailing out $500 copies of "The Alabama Merchant" to leading merchants all over ihe state of Ala bama, and enclose copy for your in- formation These follow invitations previously sent by the president of the Alabama Merchants association, and by the Birmingham Chamber of Com merce. You will notice that our board of city commissioners also have 1n- vited the merchants to visit our city during the week of August 24.
 Tt Is suggested that it would be helpful if you also gave an invitation from your office to all your customers in this state to attend the convention on August 26 and 27, coming as early in the week as they wish. We feel this would appeal to your customers.
 "It would also doubtless please your patrons if your travelling representa- tives were held in Birmingham next week to meet their individual custom CTS as they reach the city. Your trav- cling men are members of the glad hand committee by virtue of their ap- pointment by Chairman Harry Jones and we shall be glad to furnish badge for each of your men. Tell Harry Jones how many badges are required oi telephone to Main 25, and they will be sent you.
