Bum Says Interstate
 Commerce Commission
 Is q Failure and Farce
Has More Work Than It Can Do, the Railroads Are Not Cooperating and There Is No Southern Represen-
 tation-Resgns From Local Terminal Committee
"As constituted extraordinary of Interstate commission

This is the verdict of O. l.. Bum, general manager of the Birmingham Traffic Bureau and the Chamber of Commerce. after fruitless effort to have the commission modify it's coal car priority order.
 MT. Bum went on to say.
 The interstate commerce commits sion as now operated under the addi- tional responsibilities of the transpor- tation act. is farce
 T say this based on the treatment which received at Washington on my appeal to the commission to modify the coal car order.
 Ihc commission is useless, be-
 cause it has more work than it can
 properly attend to.
 "lt is useless because the rail-
 roads do not cooperate with 1t.
 "lt is particularly useless so far
 as the south is concerned. because
 the south has no representative on
 that body, and it fails to appreciate
 southern conditions.
 The commission should be abolished or a sufficient number of competent men appointed on it to properly care for the business to be handled"
 Feeling that his post as member of the local terminal committee, which is creature of the commission. serves no purpose, MT. Bum has rendered his resignation. This leaves the public with out a stated representative, but Mir. Bum feels that such a representa- tive can accomplish nothing under the iron clad and unyielding nature of the car order.
 Speaking of his visit to Washington, MT Bum said in substances:
 NO USE
 T saw the interstate commerce com mission, l saw the members of the car service commission, and I saw the gen. eral manager and vice president of the Southern railway, Lincoln Greene, and G. R Loyal. They all admitted that my presentation of the case was a good one, but none offered the slightest re- cession from the imperial manner in which they have issued instructions with regard to the car priority order.

IRON PRODUCTION A PER CENT OVER
 THE 1873 RECORDS
Last Month 50 Per Cent Over June, 1919-Price Is SAP a Ton, Compared
 With S24 Last Year

Alabama manufacture of pig iron in June, 1920, was 209,0s7 tons.
 This is an increase of 50 per cent over June, 1919.
 The Alabama iron output for the first half of the year is 1.205,0S7 tons, an in- crease over the first half of 1919 of 230,3 tons or nearly 24 per cent.
 The production of the first half is at the rate of 2,14O.000 tons for the year, compared with 2,109,000 tons in 1S1a. Inasmuch as the production in 1920 has increased month by month and there are several lean production months Of 1919 yet to be compared with, it seems practically safe to forecast a 1920 pro- duction of 2,500,000 tons the equivalent of that of 1918, and within 250,000 tons of the high record of 1917.
 The gross value of the 1920 produc- tion will far exceed that of 1919. The average price on iron delivered in the first half of 1920 has been around $40 per ton. This makes the total produc- tion value s48.200,000. The average price of iron delivered in the first half of 1919 was not over $27 per ton. That makes the gross value of the iron pro- duced in the first half of 1919 about $26, 900, ,000.
 COSTS MORE It is to be borne in mind that costs of manufacturing iron are much higher than in 1919. There is the tonnage tax on ore and coal and higher wages of labor are to be added to the cost of production. The net returns must have all this to take off before they are computed. At this time last year there were fif- teen or sixteen blast furnaces active in Alabama. Failure of the railroads to accept the Redfield price agreement knocked the iron and steel market into a cooked hat and they did not begin to recover until the turn of the year. There are now twenty-eight active stacks, as follows: Nine of the Tennes- see Coal. Iron and Railroad Company, five of the Sloss- Sheffield. four of the Woodward, two each of the Republic and Alabama Company and one each of the Gulf States Steel, Jenifer. Wood stock. Sheffield Iron Corporation, and Central Coal and Iron.
 At this time last year the market price for Alabama pig iron. f. o. b. fur naces was SPA per ton. At this time this year the price is SAP per ton and the demand is strong for the capacity production.
