EASTERN SECTION SCORES VICTORY IN PARKING FIGHT
Conference Of Those Inter- ested Called For Wednes-
 day By City

Paving of First avenue from Forty first street to East Lake by the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company, instead of creating park ways in the center of the avenue, will be discussed at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning when all interested will meet, at the suggestion of the city commission. The meeting was called after a committee of 15 representing East Lake and Woodlawn citizens had appeared Tuesday morning before the commission and lodged vigorous pro- tests against the parking proposal
 Won L. Thompson, William L. White, Mrs. J, NJ. Hankins, Judge Horace Wilkinson and Thomas E. Huey will represent the East Lake Boulevard association at the conference Wednes- day.
 Mrs. Hankins headed the delegation visiting the city hall Tuesday. The consensus of opinion expressed was that the placing of parkways on First avenue would result in congestea traffic. Request was made that this feature of the recent contract with the utility be reconsidered.
 w. J. Wynn, city attorney, said that he did not doubt the car company would gladly abandon the project. He said the city desired ultimate paving of the entire avenue, widening it where necessary. During the discus sion Tuesday. it was brought out that several stretches of the avenue are the right-of way of the street car company and not public highways because they have never been dedi- cated to the city's use. ,,,

SPEED IS SHOWN l ON NEW HIGHWAY
 FROM FAIRFIELD
North Bessemer Road Work Being Pushed By Con-
 tractors In Charge
FAIRFIELD BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HFRALD !
Fairfield. Ala, July 10 J


 Workmen for Newell Brothers are making such progress on the paved road from Fairfield to Bessemer, that the opinion was expressed in Fairfield Tuesday that the road would be com pleted to Rutledge Springs by August 10. It was stated that the contractors have literally torn up the earth on that highway and had practically completed the grading. It was stated that the forces are bending every energy to get the work completed and are making faster time than has been observed on any road construc- tion in this section for years.
 Charles J. Donald, who Is keepjng in close touch with the construction, said Tuesday that he was very much gratified to observe the progress be- ing made and one would scarcely be- lieve that the contractors would have been able to make such a showing in such a short space of time. The road is to be built into Bessemer and crew of men are working on the west ern terminus of the road. The two forces expect to join midway between Fairfield and Bessemer.
 The road when opened will greatly relieve traffic on the south line to Bessemer, now receiving all tfie traf- fic originating in Birmingham and also all traffic from the territory r semer. The joining of the two Vol umes of traffic has greatly congested the strip between Brown boulevard and the Bessemer highway through South Park It is hoped that the contractor will continue the rapid work and that the road will be com pleted on record breaking time.
