The receipts at the Bessemer post office for the year 1921 show a de- crease of s4.714 from the receipts of the previous year, the receipts for 1921 being $85,005.S2
 General financial depression and inactivity of plants in the district which has prevailed throughout the year practically is thought to be the cause of the marked decrease.
 Bessemer is still not a first-class post office, $40,00O being the amount of the receipts necessary for 1t to be classed as one.

ENSLEY

Resolutions opposing any increase in the rate of taxes in Birmingham were adopted by the Ensley Real Es- tate board at it's luncheon held yes- terday at the Post Office cafe.
 This resolution was introduced after talks had been made regarding the levytng of a 1-milI tax for parks, rlaygrounds and libraries as advo- eated by the members of the city commission, who went on record as faVoring the levying of this addition al tax to be used to develop these projects in Birmingham.
 The resolution follows; Be if re- solved, That the Ensley Real Estate board is unalterably opposed to any increase In the city tax rates and will do 1t utmost to educate the peo- pie in opposition to It, since its adop- tion means increased rents to the people already heavily burdened, as well as having a tendency to destroy the growing purpose of our best citizens to own their own homes. Birmingham taxes have increased from $1,000,0o0 to $4,OOo,0O0 in 10 years and it is time to call a halt.,g
 A special feature of the meeting was the interesting talk made by A. C. Montgomery of the Birmingham Real Estate board, who sounded the keynote of optimism, when he stated that he felt that the business depres- sion had struck the bottom and that Is was now on an upward trend to better business. He commended Ems ley's ex-comnissioner, J. Ellis Brown, for having bought the amount of property which he did for the city parks and playRrounds
 MT. Montgomery gave the members of this board hearty welcome to the Birmingham board and extended them Q special invitation to the an- nual meeting of the Birmingham board, which will be held tonight at the Tutwiler hotel O.
