MILL BREAKS RECORD

Both the bar and guide mills at the Besemer rolling mills broke all previous monthly records during the month of January. Both mills have been operating steadily for the past several months but the tonnage turned out during January estab- lished both individual, records and records for Tennessee company mills. During this month the plate mills at Bessemer, which has been operating single turn, turned out more tonnage at this rate than has ever been made before in the same number of shifts.
 customary practice of the com pany Is to give cigars when records arc broken and all workers at the Bessemer rolling mills were gener- ously supplied for some time to come when the new records were an- nounced Wednesday afternoon. The Bessemer mill has repeatedly broken records for production during the past few years. It is rated as one of the most efficient properties ot the United States Steel corporation. During the past five years the Bes- semer mill, under the management of w. J. Smith, has established 51 records for individual and all-mill production.

BEssEMER BUREAU THE AGE-HERALD


 Action for the dissolution of the town of Lipscomb will be instituted soon, it is stated, special act to be introduced at this session of the leg islature having been prepared for publication by attorneys represent ing parties who are behind the dis solution proceedings.
 The attempt to dissolve this town ship is the continuation of factional fight among residents of that com munity, which has been brewing for some time. it is reported. and also is due to dissatisfaction among motor ists of the county generally over al- legged Irregularities in the enforce of the county highway. running through the town, according to-infor- nation from several sources.
 The caption of the special act to be introduced i'll the legislature reads: An act to repeal the charter of the town of Lipscomb, and to dissolve the municipal corporation of said town, and to dispose of its corporate prop erty. In part, the act provides: ".... the town of Lipseomb is hereby dissolved and abolished; the officers elected by the said municipality, and the offices created are hereby abol- ished That all the property, real and personal of the town of Lipscomb be sold after two weeks publication of this act (after passage) and the proceeds to be turned over to the school improvement association for use as it's other funds.'
 It is understood that there has been considerable dissatisfaction among the property owners of the town of Lipscomb over the fact that they have been compelled to pay township tax for the maintenance of the corporate body, while, it is all lcged, they have been benefited but
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-02-01

little in the way of improvement. Opinion in the town Is said to be di- vided over the advisability of dis solving the corporation, but it is un- derstood that the move to abolish the town has a large following among property owners there.
 Another factor thought to have in- fluenced the move to abolish the township is the alleged antagonism that has been stirred over the entire county over the rigid enforcement of a speed law of eight miles an hour over the county highway through Lipscomb. The town has not pro- vided sidewalks along this highway, and consequently pedestrians and school children are forced to walk along the paved highway. The town officials have attempted to maintain speed limit of eight miles per hour over a portion of this road because of this, and this has caused widespread dissatisfaction among motorists.
 When the special act comes up for action in the legislature lively fight is promised.

A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.

Unlike other metals, the price
of gold does not fluctuate and
for this reason it has been i'm
possible for many gold mines to
operate under present day pro
duction costs.
In order to encourage gold
mining, Senator Oddie of Ne.
vada, proposes a bounty of 25
cents on every dollar to be paid
to producers of new gold for a
period of three years. Senator
Oddie claims that such action is
justified in order to enable gold
mines to operate and to increase
production which has decreased
from $1O1 900, 600 in 1915 to $50,.
600 in 1921.
So long as gold is the standard
of all world values. it is good
policy for the United States to
encourage production from it's
own mines.
