METAL WORKS HERE ONLY BY RAW STEEL SUPPLY
District Teem- ing With Activity In Elf fort to Supply Market Whose Limits Are
 the Earth

Owing to the continued car shortage, embargoes and the reflexes of the outlaw" strike still outstanding, the Birming- ham ironmasters continue to give more immediate attention to rail and water bookings for New England via Savannah and to spot export business. | The purely inland domestic iron | trade is undergoing Hull. Consum- mers have metal tied up in transit and foundry production in the con gested territory has not recovered Melters in that field do not care te incur any more financial obligations until they realize more on output ano use up what iron they already have on their yards and in transit. 1 The export bookings of the past three weeks have approximated 25,0OO tons l One interest booked 6,000 to 1000 tons | another 5000 to 10000 tons and another ! 5000 to 4,000 Italy is the larges' ta6er, with Holland, Scotland, England and Sweden also participating. What bookings the leading interest may have made for export are not known.
 The district furnaces are putting some metal on the yards this month after having enjoyed several months of easy transportation. Cars have l begun getting quite scarce since June 1
 The present luil in the domestic market is not taken seriously, be- | cause there is very little iron on | hand in the country, and the fur naces are well sold up TOT the last half of the year.
 | Just as soon as melters in the con | gested field can resume full operations they will do so, because the demand for their output is an acute one.
 SHOPS ACTIVE | All machine shops in the Birming- ham district are active. The largest | are most active The big three are at work on sugar house machinery for | Cuba and marine engines. One Is mak- | ing steel for these sugar houses and 1 steel containers for the Warrior. A l large steel fabricator is turning out 1 bridge and office building shapes to the extent of it's ability to secure the raw 1 steel.
 Steel works are on or near a maxi mum turn
 The pipe shops are uniformly busy Inspite of the coming in of new sani | tary pipe works. the demand for thu | output shows no signs of letting up Among the new sanitary shops abou l to come in are the Emory & Eastman at Anniston and the Ginning and Kilb,
 in this city.
 The coke market was never stronger | Lowest prices for standard foundr.
 coke rule from $11 to $13.50 and prem

 In the fight for the obtaining of the

 Following the speecth the club adopted | the slogan, "Take Home Soldier" and l many of the members agreed to take | several soldiers into their homes during the three days of the convention. | E. B. Irwin, manager of Caheer l Brothers store. told of the recent pay up campaign of the retail credit mer- l chants.

RABID DOGS BITE
 TWO PEOPLE HERE

Attacks by dogs were made yester- day on two people in Birmingham.
 Both are undergoing the Pasteur treatment in the laboratory of the city ard county board of health. They are n. E. Hull, 1444 North Thrty-f first street, and Mrs. Fife Bureu, 715 Cot ton avenue. West End.
 Mir Hull was bitten by pet dog which he was fondling in his home. The animal ran away and could not be located, but the treat atment is being ad- ptinistered for precaution.
 Mrs Burell was attacked by bull dog. The dog was shot through the head. destroying the brain, so that no diagnosis could be made. Symptoms of rabies were evident. however.
 Authorities at the laboratory urge that dogs that are suspected of rabies be not shot. but penned up for exam nation. It is much easier to make tests on the live animal than the heads.

70 Extend Library System
 Through Jefferson County

from the use of the equipment of the library.
 It is the plan with the assistance of the county to establish a number of branch libraries in the county. These branches would have about the same relation to the central library as now exists with the six branches maintained at East Lake, Ensley and other suburbs. A bill drawn by the late pr. Thomas M Owens and passed by the last legis lature, makes possible the establishment of county libraries.
 It is pointed out that if this plan is put into action the Birmingham Public Library will be enabled to increase it's service to the county without hindering it's service to the city. These branch libraries would be established with their own equipment and provided they had calls for books not in their stock these books could be loaned by the main Hir mngham library.
