Why Meats Are High

From IeSlIe B.
 Were the present high prices of meats due simply to profiteering, as many as- sert. a legal remedy could be found III short order But the market values are being fixed by an memorable economic law. When farmers required more TOT their live stock and the cost Of iaoor and material increased, packers to make even a small profit had to advance quo tations for their products. Now, MT Ar mour tells us, the tremendous needs or Europe have become powerful factor in the keeping up of prices. With the signing of the armistice last November ooi) GOO GOO hunger-stricken individuals were added to the number which had to be fed from outside sources All through Europe there is vast shortage of beeves. hogs and sheep, and beef, pork and nut ion for the war-wasted lands must De nroyided chiefly by the United States The demand from over the seas promises to make a heavy yearly inroad on Ameri- can production until the European coun- tries can again raise meat animals TOT themselves Until that time, high prices for meat must prevail in our own, as well IS in other countries.

FOrthe Good of
 the Community

CIGNS are in the air that Birmingham is o going to wake up and do something For long time her citizens have been talking, some of them working for the ac- complishment of something good for the city but there has been no visible result of their work
 Itis evident, however, that they have been working, and very effectively, but there remains to be done great deal more.
 The magnificent programmes mapped out by the city commissioners and the Chamber of Commerce call for great deal of hard work on the part of every citizen who has the interests of the city at heart.
 It is going to take hard work to put over all the things mentioned in these pro- grammes.
 Four and one-half millions of dollars look big to people who have not been used to eXpending such large sums on public improvements within such short period as is contemplated in the proposed bond issues. But S4,500,000 is not big sum for Birmingham to spend for the things named in the programme.
 Other cities with less population and wealth than Birmingham have greater : bonded debts, higher tax rates and less taxable property, and some of these go ahead spending money from year to year for streets and sewers, and schools and public buildings.
 The city that is afraid to spend money will not become great city. Birmingham cannot afford to fall behind the progress sive communities which have good streets, good schools, attractive parks, good health and adequate public buildings.
 Birmingham despite her S9O0O,O00 of bonded debts, is neither impoverished nor poor Her S104000,000 of taxable values as shown on the tax records is but frac- tion of her real wealth The tax rate paid, apparently high, is in reality small when it is considered that the supposed valua- tion of property is 60 per cent of the mar ket value, but by far the greater part of it Is in reality assessed at considerably less than that per cent. In fact, some very val uable parcels in the business section are said to be on the tax books at scarcely more than 10 per cent of their market value
 Birmingham has long prided herself on her excellent school system. There can be no greater asset to community than it's schools properly financed and conducted, and Birmingham will be making the very best possible investment when she puts two or three millions of dollars in gram mar and high schools.
 The city has outgrown the present city hall and an auditorium is very badly needed The money to be spent for these Y will be well invested.
 There is movement on foot to form 9 musical organization that within another year or two will bring some of the best tal- ent in the country to Birmingham, pro- vided an adequate auditorium is available It is planned, according to those back of the movement, to have at least week of music of the highest class which will draw thousands of people from all over Ala bama and adjoining states to Birmingham Ky fn1 Joxy
