N ham today enters upon new year
that promises much in the way of material
development.
The year 1919 was somewhat disap-
pointing, yet considerable progress was
made. Following the signing of the armls-
tice in November, 1918, there was gen.
eral let-up in all lines of industry. The
great war plants were no longer needed
to make guns, munitions and other sup
plies for the big army and navy that had
sprung miraculously into being within two
years They were either closed down and
junked, or converted into commercial
plants. Either course required time.
There was little demand for iron and
steel and Europe was still unable to buy
the south's cotton, or the products into
which American mills converted it, a.,
The comingof spring saw large num-
Der of pig iron furnaces forced into idle
ness; coal mines running on short time for
lack of demand for their products; lun-
Der mills unable to dispose of their output;
graphite mines closed, and thousands of
men out of employment.
Conditions began to improve by sum-
mer and continued to improve until the
end Of the year.
4Lo
ing Birmingham was lack OF housing fa--s
cilities. It was estimated in July that I
5000 houses were needed to take care of
the population of Birmingham. Labor
and material costs wer ehigh and prop
erty owners hesitated to invest in the new
buildings.
It was not until fall that the revival in
industry and construction began to be
felt By the end of December construc-
ton work was under way, or contem-
pIated. that called for the expenditure of
several million dollars in Birmingham
and the Birmingham district. This in

There is evidence that as the new year
advances this activity will be intensified.
Rumors are afloat to the effect that indus

AIRSHIPS AND WIRELESS
TO AID IN SEAL HUNTING
Fleet Captains Anticipate big
a KILL Among the Herds the
Coming Season.

ST. JOHNS. y. F., November 40
Captains of the Newfoundland seal
ing fleet look forward to a big kill"
among the seal herds this season, I'M
der the arrangement by which the
fleet viii be guided by two airships.
whose duty it will be to act as
scout. search for the herds of young
seals and send word of their Ioca-
ton by wireless.
Some of the old captains profess to
be trifie dubious of this new
tangled method of hunting the seals.
nut they are all awaiting the expert
ment with anticipation and hope of
greater profits than ever before.
The two non-rigid airships. popu-
larly known as .'blimps," which are
TO be used in this work have arrived
here and are being assembled to
make this firt attempt to hunt seals
from the air and by use of wireless.
The expedition. which altogether in
Guides four airships, is under the
command Of Frank ]. Tippen, con-
sulting airship engineer and con-
Structor to the Newfoundland gov
eminent, an expert in the design of
large commercial airships. Three of
the four airships are of the sea-scout-
ing type. driven by "a single engine,
the kind which did valuable recon
Nuisance work over the North and
Irish seas during the war. The fourth
is larger and driven by two motors.
All these have been presented to the
Newfoundland government by the
British air ministry as the nucleus
of a regular government air patrol
service in Newfoundland. After the
experiment in seal hunting they will
be used as n matter of routine in the
forest patrol and survey work.
When the vast herds of young seals
come drifting down from the north
on the ice early in the spring. the
"blimps" will fly out over the north
Atlantic. will hunt them out and
send word of their location to the
sealing fleet waiting to kill them for
their oil-bearing fat and skins.
Heretofore a big kill has been the
matter of luck as well as good judE-
merit The sealing fleet has relied
mainly on the knowledge and skill
of certain shippers who study charts
and currents and estimate where the
herd may be found. but sometimes
they have missed their object.
