MAKING UP LISTS 0F WOMEN VOTERS Lists of New Registrants Are to Be Sent to All Vot-
 ing Places

M. Morris, election commissioner, and his office force are busily en- gagged in making up lists of the women n registrants qualifying before the clos ing of the registration books of the county.
 According to the plans of MT. Morris, If the legislature, at it's extra session fails to make an appropriation for the printing of the lists of women voters he will have certified typewriter copies sent to each voting place.
 This work will require the force in the registrars office several days, as 7,604 women registered during the six days the books were open to them. In addition. there are also 1,500 men who have qualified since the supplementary voting lists were printed prior to the primary election in May. Mir. Morris declared he was getting this work done as he would be very busy when the registration books were again opened to register the women. In his opinion this will occur about September 25, and it will be necessary for him to be in each precinct for short time in order to allow the women of the various beats to qualify.

IRON MARKET FIRM
 AT A $42 MINIMUM Some SIackening Noticed In Heavy Buying That Has
 Marked the Summer

After two months of remarka ble ae- tivity the iron buying wave has shown signs of temporary subsistence.
 The purchasing movement began at the turn of the year and produced an unusually large volume of business, Birmingham district operators are well content with the situation. having sold about as much tonnage into the first half of 1921 as they care to book that far ahead.
 The most remarkable feature of re- cent weeks has been the business done in New England. Referring to this a Boston news letter in the Iron Age says:
 Between 5000 and 5000 tons have been sold since last report mostly Ala bama, at $42 furnace One Alabama furnace sold a western Massachusetts foundry, 1000 tons, silicon 1.75 to 2.25, on an October deliverd base of about $53 TOO tons, silicon 2.75 to 3.35, prompt delivery, at about s54 alongside Boston, and several smaller lots to Clinton, Chelsea, East Boston and Franklin. Mass; Providence, R. l.. and New Haven, Conn, consumers for prompt delivery and 300 tons, silicon 175 to 2.25. first quarter, to Wor- cester, Mass. foundry.
 Total bookings by this furnace for August are in excess of 75,000 tons. "A 2,S16 ton steamer cargo, Sloss Sheffield Steel and Iron Company. has been unloading at Providence. R. l. the past week"
 This Boston item indicated the re. markable business done in the east by Alabama furnaces.

 While away I visited several Of the principal cities, and am convinced of the desirabilty of the new taXicab service for Birmingham"

We realized some time ago that there was real need flor the genuine taxi cabs here which carry taXimeters ana which can be taken at any of the prln- cinpal downtown points. To meet this need we ok steps to assist in the in- troduction of line of them in Birming- ham,"
 Of course the present lines of both companies will remain undisturbed, the new cars being in the nature of supple mental to the service already given. Both of the local companies will station the new taxicabs at various strategic points about the city where they can be most conveniently hailed There will be cars at all times at Five Points, both of the railroad stations, Third and Twentieth Fourth and Twentieth. at the larger ho- tes. and in fact, at all thu principal points where they will be most con yenient to the public.
