SUPPORT COTTON
 ASSOCIATION NOW
 SAYS JUDGE ALLEN
Two Days Left to Complete Canvass - Clubs Joining Gives New Impetus to the
 Movement Here

Added impetus is given the membership campaign of the Alabama division of the Amer ican Cotton association in Jeff ferson county by the enthusias- tic support which is being re- ceived from the civic clubs of Birmingham.
 The unanimous decision of the Xii wanis club for all its members to join and the almost unanimous decision of the Rotary club, together with the active assistance of the Community club, the Civitan club and the Real Estate ex- change. is resulting in a steady increase in the number of new members recorded
 Inasmuch as the campaign closes to- morrow night, Judge B. NJ Allen, county chairman, requests that every organiza- tion which Is assisting in the campaign, wind up their work, if possible, by that time so that he will be able to report the full list of new members on Mon day.
 WORK NOW
 A letter was auuresSed yesterday to every precinct chairman and to each member of the precinct committees ask ing them to devote a part of today or tomorrow to the work of making can vass of their beat SO that the entire membership might be complete by the time the campaign closes.
 T find that the business men of Rir- mingham generally are very enthusiastic over the work of the American Cotton association and that practically every one is heartily in support of this cam pabsn," said Judge Allen yesterday. Due to the large number of other drives which are now going on and which arc projected for the near future, we have not been able to get committees to make a house-to-houSe canvass of the city and Bessemer, but we are greatly encouraged by the support we are receiving from the Civic clubs and from many of the leading business firms oS the city. JOIN NOW
 "If everyone who IS in favor of this campaign and in sympathy with the work the association is doing and it's plans for future activity, will only send in their checks to me or to Col. T. O. Smith. treasurer, at the Birmingham Trust and Savings Co.,, we will be able to re- pert the full quota of zoo Monday. This is matter in which every citizen of Jefferson county should take an inter est, for if the agricultural sections of the state do not prosper. we will feel the effects in the financial conditions of Sir mingharn.
 ITO place this matter on a strictly commercial basis, it is a good proposi- ton for Jefferson county to help out. Then 1t will show the people in the az ricultural sections of the state that the business men of Birmingham are not selfish but arc interested in the welfare of the whole state"

b|G PRODUCTION OF STEAM COAL
 LOWERING PRICE
Largest Production Last Week In Many Months = Coal Fields Said to Be Rapidly
 Approaching Normal

Alabama coal production is close to normal.
 The production for the week ending last Saturday and off cially reported to the federal government was 286,950 tons.
 This is the largest production since August 14 last. month prior to the general strike call It is larger than the same week in 1919 when there was no strike. It is as large as the average for 1919.
 It is f2,ooo tons in excess of the prior weeks production and 10000 tons in excess or the production of the week before that. It is s7.0oo tons in excess of the production of the low mark reached during the week of the Adler and the Majestic mine killings. That low mark was 197,o0o tons. The production has picked up week by week since the militia went on guard in the mine field.
 SURPLUS
 There Is a surplus of low-grade steam coal in the market. There is still scarcity of domestic lump. but run of mine included. there Is sufficient domestic coal also.
 Two hundred more men applied for work in the mines last week than could be housed. Record kept by the operators shows that 376 former union men returned 10 their positions in the open shop mines during the week. There were 40 who came back to one colliery.
 By December , many of the eviction cases will have reached final determi- nation, and the company houses will be available for the men they wish to employ.
 From a production standpoint both at present and in prospect the strike has ceased being a factor.
 No really large mine now recognizes the union. The Alabama company, which formerly had blue book agree ments at Searles and Brookwood, has none there now. The men struck, and the company accepted this as violation of the contract and have declined deal ing with the. union in any manner since. Word comes from Walker coun- ty that the Bankhead, Railway Fuel mines and the Guy O'Rear coal have all declined to accept D substitute for the blue book.
 NORMAL
 All the large iron and steel makers that are also producers of coal have fully recovered their normal produc- tion, or are very near that point All of them are producing an ample supply for their purposes. There is no strained point anywhere in the steam coal field.
 So soft has the steam coal spot mar ket become, owing to the ease in sup ply, that the spot price of $s to $7.50 in the Walker county field has dis appeared and spot is now being sold at the same figure as contract coal which is on the base of s4.50 per ton. ~ At the rate new men have been com ing to the mines and are being trained to the work, if the strike lasts much longer, the indications are that the men who wait until the last moment to re- turn to work will not find work wait ing for them and will be forced to leave Alabama for other fields.

NEED MORE DOLLS
 FOR THE BAZAAR Appeal Is Made for Any Sort. Proceeds Support Chil-
 drens Hospital

An appeal for dressed dolls is being made by the LiRly Heflin unit of the American Red Cross, which has charge of the doll bazaar this. year.
 These dolls are for the doll bazar, which is held every December the proceeds from the sale to be used for the support of the Children's hospital
 Mrs. Vernon Whitaker, one of the chairmen for the bazaar, is asking the people of Birmingham to give dressed dolls to be sold during the three days the bazaar is open, beginning Decem- Der z. That the Children's hospital is supported by the doll bazar is con- sfdered most appropriate. she declared, for children and dolls are synonymous.
 'Srhe Children's hospital is calling upon the people of this city, said Mrs. Whitaker. These helpless, sick chil- dren need the support and the spirit of benevolence toward a worthy cause could not be better exemplified than by aiding in caring for these less fortunate children of Birmingham and Jefferson county.
 What is more appealing than a sick. helpless child?" said Mrs Whitaker. We all know there is nothing that touches the heart of men and women as children do and on a recent visit to New York I happened to mention to A. V Nowell. an artist. that I was chairman of the doll bazaar which served to support our Children's hos pitai. He immediately became inter- ested in it and made a poster to be Gsed It is most attractive and will he placed in some downtown window. 'rf Q background is red and the poster has q small Japanese girl holding 9 doll in her arms upon which she is bestowing all the love and affection of her little heart
 Dolls purchased at the bazaar will serve two purposes. They will make 'hs children for whom they are bought happy and they will enable the Chil- of taking care of sick and helpless children who otherwise would not re- csive the attention they need. Tn fact am tola that several children at the institution are hcpelessly cripp;al or i'll and will never leave.
 "In addition to caring for the little ores. homes are often found for them 'rhere they are given the love of d mother for which many of them pine. we want dressed dalls to enable us to make 8 sufficient amount of money to operate the hospital during 1921. and we don't care whether they are large or small. We have received some lit tie ones that are too cunning for any thing"
