ME TAI PIPE TRADE WAKING AS RESULT
 OF BUILDING BOOM
Many New Houses, Stores and Plants Being Built All Re- quiring Sanitary Piping.
 Orders Increase

The sanitary pipe trade is looking up for the first time in many months.
 It is far behind normal, but in the past three weeks more interest has been shown than since the. slowing down process set in last July.
 W. fl. Kirkland, an experienced sani- tary pipe broker is authority for these statements. MT. Kirkland went on to say:
 There are large accumulations of makers incident to manufacture with out sale. It is also quite true that none of the pipe manufacturers has been making any money at prevailing cost of manufacture and sales prices, but re- adjustments have been going on and the manufacture of pipe is being whipped into better form
 Demand for sanitary pipe has been much stronger in the past three weeks than in several months. This Is owing to the undoubted building activity that has begun to prevail over the country.
 T see where Indianapolis issued more building permits for an aggre- gate greater total of amount in Febru- ary than in any month of which there is record.
 Tn Birmingham building permits in February showed 100 per cent increase over January and the monthly average of 1920. March has been coming just as strong. In every residence and store house some sanitary pipe must go in connection with the plumbing arrangements. This, accounts for the renewed interest in sanitary pipe It is direct reflex of the building move- ment.
 "The prospect for sanitary pipe is unusually good, although l do not look for full recovery until about June or July, but recovery has undoubtedly set in. Being one of the districts largest iron consumers recovery in the pipe business is of the utmost importance
 Three sanitary pipe shops, Emory and Eastman, at Anniston, and Central Foundry, at Bessemer, resumed Mon day, after months of idleness.

WOODWARD IRON CO. GETS STACK READY
Prepares to Res:sme. Operations as Soon as Conditions
 Warrant

The Woodward Iron company. which some time ago shut down all its iron furnaces, has given notices to opera lives in the furnace department to get one of the stacks in shape for resump- tion of operations.
 sIhe company has about gotten rid of the accumulation of manufactured iron that were on it's yards when it closed down the blast furnaces and, by the close of the week, when the furnaces will be ready to resume, these yards. it is understood, Will be practically denuded.
 If by that time accumulation of new orders justifies operation. the furnace will resume. Chances are that one Woodward stack will be making pig iron again by the time another week has begun it's seyenzday period.
 The Woodward Iron company re- sumed operations at Mulga coal mine 10 days ago, and at Nos. l and ? Dolo> mite the first of the week. This re- sumption will enable the coal that will provide the coke, which is to be at hand, as one of the elements of fur mace operation.
 Altogether it looks like resumption by one Woodward stack by Monday next. This is not assured, and the company offices will not say so but preparations under way at Woodward clearly indicate that the company ex> poets to resume.

BRICK INDUSTRY IS BACK ID NORMAL:
 AA " NOiH'"s-1 BUSINESS GROWING
Building Activity of Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi Places Many Orders in
 Birmingham District

For the first time in six months the building brick plants of the Bir- mingham district, which is the clay working center of the southern states, are operating at normal.
 The output is being moved as fast as manufactured to the states of Georgia, Mississippi and Florida. as well as to Alabama points.
 Common brick were reduced in price from $24 per thousand to $17 per thou sand at the beginning of the year, and soon afterwards some of the district plants resumed Now they are at ncr- nal
 John W. Sibley, sales manager of the Birmingham Clay Products company, said
 The face brick plants of the Brming- ham district are in normal operation for the first time since last September The product is being shipped out to points in Mississippi Georgia and Florida, as well as in Alabama. Recovery in the build ing brick trade is due, of course, to the increase in construction that is going on in the southern states 1 am glad to be able to announce the full restoration of normal conditions in this important in- drstry."
 The building brick plants of the dis trict went practically out of business last September owing to the cessation Of building enterprises, There was practi- cally no demand for the product at the prices prevailing, together with prices for other building material At the same time the brick plants were paying maximum price for coal. and labor was being paid war wages.
 Since that time there has been adjust ment, both in labor and other costs, and, besides the reduction in price of coal. 1t is obtainable when needed.
 Business circles were highly gratified yesterday when informed of the recov- cry in this basic industry.

Directory to Be Kept Up-to- Date and MBocing About Records Noted Plan
 Save Much Money
By WILLIAM THOMPSON

Birmingham postoffice authorities will in the future save local mer- chants and manufacturers many thousands of dollars a year by keep ing their making list up-to-date.
 It is estimated that all local business houses. great and small, spend many dollars a month for postage that IS wasted because the mail is sent to the wrong address.
 Beginning immediately, there will be several men at the postoffice who Will keep the mailing lists of Birmingham merchants up to date.
 COOPERATION
 This announcement was made yester' day by Ed Norman. assistant postmas- ter, who stated that he believed the plan would be grasped eagerly by local mer- chants and that he looked forward to more men being added to the department at an early date.
 Each year when the new city direc- tory is issued it is taken apart by locai postoffice officials and white sheet ot paper Is pasted in it for each sheet m the directory. Thus when a person or family moves to another address or moves away from the city, note of the fact is made in the postoffice directory and in this manner it is always kept complete and up-to-date.
 Postoffice authorities say large amounts of mail are returned to busl- ness houses in Birmingham daily be- cause of incomplete addresses. BanA- ing houses, department stores and prac- tically every form of business in the city is being troubled because of the moving about of customers.
 GENERAL DELIVERY
 MT. Norman also stated that many Deo- pie have their mail sent to the local postoffice in care of general delivery and that this information, which could not be gotten very well by business houses, will be furnished them by the postoffice upon request.
 It was also pointed out by MT Nor man that many letters go away from Birmingham to people and firms in other cities with incomplete addresses on them In time this, too, will be corrected, tor all the postoffice departments are Work- ing tagether, and in time the city dlrec- tories of all the large cities will be on file at the local postoffice.
 A small charge will be. made by the postoffice department of the merchants who desire to have their mailing tists corrected. But it is stated that the charge for the service will be but httie more than the experts salary who cor . rects the merchants mailing lists and brings them up to date.

The questioned was What do you think should be done with a person who knowingly sells whisky that contains questionable ingredients?
 Where asked: Here and there about town.
 The answers were:
 Tom Estes, Estes Real Estate and Insurance company q believe it is one of the greatest of crimes for a man-Sto- sell another whisky when he knows it contains dangerous drugs. Where the greatest good can be done now is to make the children realize what the results will be if they drink the stuff which nowadays is sold for whisky"
 Page F. Reed. optician, ground floor the Tutwiler hotel: "The police au- thorities should deal with a man who sells whisky knowing that it is poi soned the same as they would deal with a man who shoots another down in cold blood. But it is the duty of the citizens of Birmingham, as well as the police, to see that their city Is cleaned of people of this kind"
 Arnold Masberg. druggist, Fourth avenue and Twentieth street: 'If man is able to recover after having gotten drunk on poisoned whisky he is never the same again. It keeps his brain from thinking quickly and often paralizes parts of his body. But this is only the exception. for in major ity of the cases it kills the person outright
 Enrique Smith, manager the Dicta- phone company, American Trust building: "A reliable bootlegger is a thing of the past. It's mans per- sonal business when he takes drink. but when another sells him poisoned liquor and takes his good money for it, then it's time for the police to get buSy''
