STOCK EXCHANGE
SESSION CALLED
'P|KERS' MEETING
Broker With 800 Share Order
Is Regarded as Extremely
Lucky,
The WALL STREET JOURNAL

NEW YORK, July 14.-Attendance
was unusually light at the opening Of
the stock exchange today. but prices
were firm under influence Of a better
foreign exchange market Reports
from the floor said there were some
buyers in steel, while coppers were
in demand with Cerro-de-Pasco open
ing up fractionally and Utah I'M
changed. Baltimore & Ohio, among
the rails, showed an initial advance,
while Cosden, among the oils. was off
fractionally. I
Twenty active industrial stocks on
Saturday averaged S9.4o, up 33 per
cent. Twenty active rails averaged
1920. up IL per cent.
First Hour
The first hour was a very empty
affair with most OF the trading orig
mating on the floor and prices moved
within very narrow limits. Stude-
baker probably was the most active,
selling UP fractionally and later sag
ging. Foreign news was languidly
discussed and traders were disposed
to await the British note on repara-
tons, but it was admitted, however.
that the advance in foreign exchanges
was a significant factor in pre-deter-
mining foreign sentiment.
Closing Hour
One sage-nke trader at the close of
the days market remarked that the
session had been a "pikers' meeting"
when fifty transactions, all Of 100
shares each, showed in a line. Any
broker with a 500-share order was re-
garded as lucky. A selling order for
500 shares of Studebaker put that
stock down y while buying order
OF 400 shares in Anaconda accounted
for a, half-point advance in that issue.
The undertone. however. was nrIn.
substantially what 1t has been for
the past week.

By LEO r. SACK

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-Whether
he likes it or not. President Harding
seems TO be doomed to run for re-
election to the White House.
His friends and organization Re-
publican leaders have concluded that
the Presidents personal wishes must
not stand in the way Of the party. If
the Republicans are to win next year
it must be Mr.. Harding who leads
them. they say.
With this in mind. they are urging
the President to make a Swing
around the circle" during the coming
summer. II won't be a campaign in
the strict sense of the word, but
merely a grand hand-shaking expe-
dition.
So. when Congress adjourns, and
Washington becomes a dull place, and
after the President and Mrs Harding
have had their little rest down in
Florida, the President seems definitely
in line for a long visit with the home
folks"

ALABAMA CITY's RECORD

There is wise old saying: "Pay as you go; when you can't pay, don't go." Alabama City made practical application of this during the fiscal year ending September 30, except that the thrifty little city both went and paid its way. Its floating debt was reduced two thousand dollars, and it is spending $113,500 on paving. Dur ing the year it completed several other substantial improvements, and lived within it's income. That is the kind of record which indicates that some body who had at heart the public interests was on the job. Running a city is as much business proposition as operating factory or conducting grocery store. Politics is mixed with government only to the damage of the public business. The people of Alabama City have reason to be proud of it's record.

WEST JAMES CRAWFORD

In the death of West James Craw- ford, publisher of the Memphis Com mercial Appeal, the South loses ono of it's ablest and most successful jour nalists. With the close of the War Between the States, in which he served with distinction in the Confed crate army, MT. Crawford entered commercial life in Memphis and be- came one of the leading business men of that city and section. For twenty five years he was newspaper pub fisher, having established the Memphis Commercial, which subsequently, ab- sorbed the Appeal and the Avalanche and became the Commercial Appeal of which he was the head until his death. He was influential in the in dustrial, political, agricultural and ed ucational advancement of his sectioH and of the South. The newspaper oi which he was publisher largely re flected his constructive views, hi: high sense of integrity and his per sonal courage in questions of public policy, and for many years has beer an uplifting force in the thought and action of a large part of the South i1 which it circulated.

agreement with Great Britain will be followed by agreement with all other nations concerned.
 What effect this will have upon the ability of this government to enforce the Volstead act is only to be esti- mated. The prohibition commissioner thinks that it will solve most of his difficulties with respect to smuggling. The difference between a three-miie dash and a twelve-mile dash will give the advantage to the revenue cutters and coast guard craft, which are now handicapped by the short distance they may cover in pursuit. It allows them twenty-four instead of six miles of margin, for seizing suspected craft both going and coming. The next few months should reveal whether the new status will have the effect predicted by its advocates.

GRAIN AND WATERWAYS

As was expected, the refusal of the railroads to accede to President Cool idge's suggestion that they reduce rates on wheat from the Northwest has given decided impetus to pro- jects looking to the further develop ment of waterways. As the water ways develop and their influence on rates, even rail rates, is noted, the public demand for their continued ex- pansion grows unwaveringly stronger and more insstent Already plans are under way for water outlet for grain through the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence and Hudson rivers. Now there comes legitimate and cogent ar gument in favor of more barge service for grain on the Mississippi river and it's branches.
 If the waterways afford efficient and cheaper transportation for cer- tain bulky commodities on their way to ports of export, then by all means should the public be given this benefit. The railroads have been built up on 9 policy of long hauls rather than short hauls to seaboard and the result is heavy economic burden on the pro- ducers and consumers of American products. The weight of this burden is all the more oppressive because a great portion of it is unnecessary Recent revision of routes so as to favor the sending of export commodi- ties by the shortest distance to sea- board with resultant saving in trans portation cost has opened the eyes of the people to the unjust tax that has hitherto been levied on them. in great measure this tax is still opera tive.
 Instead of re-arranging their poli- cies so as to partake of the advantages of the new and inevitable resort to an expanded waterway service, the railroads are still fighting waterways within the areas of direct competition, and, by high rates, are stimulating the ] demand for the extension of water

BIRMINGHAMs STEADY GROWTH

Little more than a decade ago cltl- zens of Birmingham regarded pay roll of million week strong talk ing point for the industrial achieve ment of this district. The argument was frequently employed to impress outsiders with Birmingham's impor- tance as a producing menter. Now Birmingham's payroll has gone be- yond three millions a week. This not only affords an idea of the immense industrial and commercial operations of this city and district, but empha- sizes tn substantial expansion throughout the business structure.
 The Chamber of Commerce in its report of local conditions for October sets forth facts and figures that direct special attention to Birmingham's steady business growth. During that month undertakings started, completed or contracted for, represent invest ments of about two millions of dollars These are of industrial and commer- cial character, and do not include the large amount of home building which totals a cost of many hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is interesting to note in this connection that, despite the high costs of everything entering into building operations, that field shows unusual activity, and many res idences of pretentious design, as well as hundreds of homes of moderate cost, are in course of construction.
 This large industrial activity is of permanent improvement character. It indicates not only prosperous condi- tions, but faith of the people in the opportunities and potentialities of the district. One of the most gratifying features of the industrial and com mercial status of this great hive of production is the realization of it's peo- pie that it possesses all the elements through which to become one of America's greatest producing and dis tributing centers, and that it is, mak- ing rapid progress towards that goal. Full faith of it's people in the future, sti tixulated by the splendid record of past achievement, is one of Birming- hams chief assets.

CONSIDER THE TURKEY

Somebody is always taking the joy out of life," according to a modern saying. It seems to find application in the sad tidings coming out of the West at time when the nation, com pleting it's harvesting, contemplates the frost on the pumpkin and is thrilled by the glorious tints of the forests, while impatiently awaiting the great American day of feasting and thanksgiving. At the recent annual convention of the national poultrymen in Chicago, a bilious soul arose to declare that the day of the turkey s nearing it's close and that in a few decades the noble bird will be rare on the Thanksgiving board. He added that a substitute must be found to carry the cranberry sauce, the dress ing and the fixings, just as if there were any substitutes. A resolution was passed calling on congress to do something for the splendid fowl by es- tablishing vast reserve for perpet- uating the species and multiplying the breed
 The dealers declare that farmers do not enthuse over raising turkeys, which are independent and surly in disposition, have way of wandering afar and genius for creating trouble. Tn recent years Texas growers have been the most successful, though fine birds have come from Kentucky, Ten nessee, Missouri and other Central states. Many raisers have abandoned the business, while others have threat ened to quit because they contend that only. during the one season is there q profitable market, and that the public continues to kick every time the price is slightly advanced.
 How much of this is founded on fact and how much constitutes pur- pose to push up the price above that of last year is for the consumer to figure out, while he contemplates the report that there are some six millions of pounds of turkey in cold storage held over from last year, and to be employed as price-fixing margin. With the price of the last few years it is hard to believe that the turkey producer fell behind. But even the suggestion that the turkey as the piece de resistance at the great Ameri- can family dinner on Thanksgiving and Christmas is to be scarce is dis turbing, and those possessing appe- tites such as the man who declared that the turkey is a very inconvenient bird-a little too much for one, and not enough for two-have grounds for grief over the discouraging outlook.
