NORTH BIRMINGHAM BANK IS ENLARGED
Growth of Institution Requires EnIargement-Work to
 Cost $10,0OO

In response to it's growth the North Birmingham Trust and Savings bank has been forced to consider the remodeling and enlargement of it's banking house in North Birmingham This work is to ea- sue at once. The interior will present an entirely new appearance when the work is completed and the new fixtures installed. The remodeing will cost $10,0OO
 The growth of this institution has been remarkable It began business when North Birmingham was a separate conl- munity, but it has developed into one of the soundest financial institutions in the district with a million and a quarter of resources and some of the strongest men in the community on it's directorate.
 Recently Robert Wharton, who for years was cashier and it's builder from the start was elected president and G. c. Bryant, who was his assistant, was elected cashier.
 "The Bank of Personal Service" has been the slogan of the institution and it's phenomenal growth has been the reward of acting up to that motto.

BETTER TONE ON
 STEEL MARKET

Local steel producers agree that the market is stronger and the feeling bet ter.
 The Wall Street Journal of Saturday says: "The steel market during tine last few days has been of decidedly better tone than for some weeks"
 Inquiry for variety of steel products was reported by more than one interest yesterday.
 A feature of the Birmingham pig iron market yesterday was order for release and shipment to consumer of a consider able amount of pig iron bought at the high prices prevailing last fall. Ihat iror has moved very slowly owing to the inactivity at plants and the reduced prices for iron prevailing this year.
 Car lot orders for pig iron were re- ceiyed by the twos and threes by seV- eral makers and the inquiry was re- ported as continuing to reflect the better feeling seeming to prevail recently.
 The Wall Street Journal says that pet ter buying is reported in wrought pipe cast pipe and steel sheets or pipe th's authority says: Cast iron pipe orders are being distributed evenly among the various trade interests, but at prices con siderably below the nominal Soo-a-toh base.

MOORE COMMENTS
 ON RELIEF PLANS.
Says Loyal Miners Are Not the Ones Who Are Suffering
 at This Ttime

Walter Moore of the Empire Coal com pany, who has just returned from weeks absence from the city. when asked for his view of the matter now under consideration by the charitable people of the community for the relief of the unemployed miners and their families, said:
 Wan A. Bittner's contemptible sling at Governor Kilby and his threat to oon- tinue warfare against the peace and in- dustrial pursuit of coal miners in Ala bama is a fair illustration of the truth of the statement made by MT. Henry DeBardeleben at the public meeting held on Monday in behalf of the alleged sui fering of the unemployed that the hor- rible picture of starving hundreds is but part of the Van Bittner propaganda. ln- vestigation by the Red Cross, Salvation Army and other charitable institutions is entirely in order and highly commendable whenever the cry of distress is raised, and no matter what the prime cause ot distress may be, charitable public all ways responds. Let the investigation pro- ced but do not fail to present the real cause and let it prove a lesson to coal miners of Alabama, impressing them with the danger of needing the voice of imported agitators who come among them to reap reward for selfish purpose.
 The loyal miners who stood steadfast against the encroachments of Bittner ct al are not the sufferers at this time and it would be the height of ingratitude on the part of coal operators to displace them for the misled men who yielded to the false promises of paid agitators, gave up their jobs and who now cry for sue cor from the hands of those whom they offended and persecuted.'
