The New Year finds Biz
mingham tremendously short

and with the demand for
business houses below the
supply. These two facts are
in themselves sufficient to as
sure an active real estate
market, with vacant residen-
tial property first, and I'M
proved business property and
semi-business property sec
ond, but almost as strong.
The attention which Biz

receiving from non-residents
for stores, industrial sites

We are gratified to be able
to state this confidence is be-
ing shared by our own peo-
pie. We are beginning to APP
preciate what we have and
to act on that appreciation.
Hereafter there will be less
waiting on conditions, as the
wisdom of going ahead in
spite of them becomes more
and more apparent.
With the Port of Birming-
ham a reality instead of q
vision and with a waterway

casts off the limitations of an
inland city and is in touch
with the world through the
seven seas. This is the gift of
the New Year. Who could
ask a better?

days, some important deals
have advanced toward con-
summation, and their an

homes which we have been build
ing and are now nearing compile

week in our business.
Our rates on mortgage loans are
more attractive now than we have

will deal more or Jess with the Euro
pean phase and the situation in
Europe. He has recently returned
from abroad and is in close touch
