 The city has taken on by-product gas manufactured by local industry in the course of it's economy of operations. The price to the consumer, reasonable to begin With, Will be progressively lower Thus another natural resource finds it's highest expression Tn home use and benefaction.
 The Alabama Commercial League. which IS to advertise Alabama s resources over series of years in a broad way and Dr1ng suitable settlers to unoccupied farm lands, is on its feet.
 Water power current is to be increased by the building of another unit of 19.5OO horse power at Lock 12.

 The federal government has selected the site of the coal terminals at Mobile and early construction may be expected. This is pivotal, because it means capacity at the port for handling of enormous quantities of coal for bunkering ships and for export.
 Eight thousand tons of Brazilian ore have arrived at Mobile for transportation upstream by the Warrior river manage ole marks the beginning of great yearly nortnbound business which the river seeks for economic operation.
 The coming of the Lehigh Portland Ce- ment Company to the environs of Bir- mlngham was basic. This is the largest cement concern in the United States. It bought high-priced suburban land and will build S3,O00,000 factory on it be- cause the situation is excellent for dstri- button as well as manufacturing pur- poses. It's coming was the same notice to the world of what Birmingham is in re- gard to cement manufacture as the com Ing of the U. 5. Steel was an announce ment of Blrmlngham's stragetic position as to iron and steel products.
 No so large an industry is the iron enameling works of the American Financing Iron Products Company of Chicago, but it's erection of plant here to use Birmingham iron in the production of snow white bathroom appliances ad- mlts the adaptability of that iron for this manufacture. A local concern is to en- gage in the same business at an early date. And this is basic. It is another form of pig iron conversion that has decided to make this its habitat.
 Something else of a basic nature oc- cured when a large Chicago manufac- turer of plumbers pipe and fittings, sold its equipment to Birmingham manu- facturer, but becomes that manufactur- er's distributing agent for this country and export through it's dozens of supply houses It is basic because this exchange of equipment was made after careful survey of the relative situations in Chi cago and Birmingham, which disclosed the difference of SIP per ton in the manu-. fracture of pipe and fittings in favor of Birmingham.

You Know the Strike Is Lost

MOSI or you went Into It unWlllmgly, against your better Judgment and true sense of right and wrong
 Why punish yourselves and your families any longer tor blunder into which you have been trapped?
 Why not return WHILE YOU CAN to your old jobs and experience the satisfaction and contentent which comes to every who doing his duty to himself his family and his fellow man?
 NINETY PER CENT of the miners of Alabama were against when this strike began They stuck to their work and YOU KNOW they are going to stick
 So the odds were TEN TO ONE against you at the start. They much heavier now and growing heavier all the time, because are taking your places every day.
 THE PUBLIC IS AGAINST YOU, TOO and no strike was ever won without the public support
 The public knows you quit good jobs at higher pav than you earned before without any grievance against the operators
 Therefore, the good will of the people is for that NINETY PER CENT who are in the mines today doing thelr part in keeping commerce and industry moving and helping to provide the homes of this country with winter coal.
 But while the public against you because believes you sfuck without excuse and at time when coal pro- auction IS most needed the people know that good and honest men can be msled for time. They are pacng the odium for this strike where it belongs THE AGITATORS-
 FOREIGN agS tors like those who tried to freeze the nation last winter and who had to be called ternv to account by the Federal Government
 FOREIGN agtators who caused you to break solemn contracts made with you the most liberal spirit bv he contracting coal companies
 FOREIGN agitators who have separated you from good jobs and placed privaton and hardship upon vor family. " FOREIGN agitators who are trying to use VOL as paWnS Tn their own selfish game.
