BULMER TO SPREAD CITYS MILK GOSPEL
Chief Of Dairy Inspection On Pro-
 gram For Two Conventions

L. c. Bulmer, chief of the division of :oUd and dairy inspection of the city and county department of health, was authorized by the city commis- sion at it's meeting Tuesday morn ing to attend the Worlds Dairy con vention in Washington D. C., and the convention of the International Association of Dairy and Milk In spectors in the same city, the meet ings to be held from September 2S through October 8.
 Mir. Bulmer is on the program of both organizations to discuss Milk Control in Municipalities" and has been receiving letters from many cities urging him to attend and ex- plain the working of pr. J. D. Dowl- and the improvement in the milk sit uation in Birmingham, both of which have drawn national and interfa - tional attention in the past few months.
 Commissioner Mary Echols, who Is at the head of the educational and sanitary fields of activity in Birming ham as the city's representative, in- troduced the resolution providing for MT. Bulmer's attendance at the meet ings in Washington. She said Bir- mingham had drawn widespread at- tention recently, it's representative was expected at the meeting and the importance of the sanitary work to this city warranted it's representative attending such meetings for the value of the information to be gained through such contacts.

BUSINESS WEN ASK
 RAISE IN LICENSE
Cattle Dealers Complain Of Unfair Competition By
 Itinerant Sellers

Birmingham city commissioners were nearly knocked out of their chairs at the meeting of the com mission Tuesday moroning when two business men of standing in the com munity made an earnest plea that their licenses to do business be raised two hundred and fifty per cent
 Animated discussion after the meeting adjourned revealed the fact that this is believed to be the first time on record that such a request has officially been made and is be- Heved to set, in all probability, precedent and a record
 The request came from G. w. Wal den and J. F. Blanton who operate the stockyards at Second avenue and Twenty fourth street. They said their license was S100 a year but s250 annually If the commission will apply the same license to their com petttors, of an itinerant nature, who are skimming the cream of the cash business in the cattle trade and not paying any license at all, leaving them wi,h the credit accounts of the local market.
 MT. Walden addressed the commits sion saying his and his partners business was that of, buying and sell ing cattle, that the same rebounds to the credit of Birmingham, making sales market for cattle men of the vicinity and providing a desired com modity for the community, but each day there lines up in the neighbor- hood of their place of business a number of cattle dealers, equipped with COW accommodating tracks, who buy cattle in the country, sail into town and sell them for cash. and stoutly maintain that they raise the animals themselves.
 Commissioner w E. Dickson said the city was actively sympathetic with the promotion of business and that no license was expected of the cattle men who raises his own ami mals and brings them to town to sell, but if, as the visitors claimed, the men complained of were merely dealers, then the stockyards men were entitled to all the protection the city could give.
 President D.. E. McLendon calhd City Comptroller H. M. Taylor into the conference and advised him to get the services of detail from the police department and round up the men who were not cattle raisers but merely dealers doing business with out license.
 If the city wants a whole lot of money" Mir. Walden said, it can make these people pay licenses, for most of the time the curbing in the vicinity of Second avenue and Twenty fourth street is lined with their trucks. We will be glad to have our licenses raised to S25O a year from the present $100 if you will make these others pay it."
 The commission was evidently in- terested in the matter, assured the callers of the city's support and started matters going to have the police not only look into the sub- ject at this time, but to keep up surveillance of the neighborhood in the future with an eye to arresting the license dodgers and bringing them to justice.
