SMOOTHING WAY , FOR ORDINANCE
 COVERING FOOD
Conference With Bowling Results In Objections
 Being Withdrawn

Enforcement of the recently enacted "pure food" ordinance providing strin- gent regulations for the handling of foodstuffs in Birmingham's 6,0O0 stores. is wavering between success and failure, Dr. J. D. Bowling, health of ficer, revealed Friday.
 Trouble has. arisen over the reluct- ance of certain big stores and dealers to comply with the law; some of whom have retained attorneys and have threatened an injunction to block the law, according to Dr. Bowling.
 X friendly settlement. however, is now practically assured and the small CT merchants who have been. hanging b1ck waiting to see whether the big dealers would fight or not are expected to fall in line with the leaders.
 Look For Results
 "Within 10 days, we expect to show noticeable results" Dr. Bowling pre- dicted Ut has taken time to adjust differences of opinion and get the en- forcement of the law underway. Since January 15, when it became effective, we have consumed three weeks in dis fributing copies of the ordinance and application blanks for permits. Tn Feb- fuary. 1S7 formal notices were issued, giving 30 days for establishments to comply with the law. However, we had to take into consideration the expira- ton of leases on stores and plans for
 We have tried to work out pro- screens and fixtures being changed for such short time.
 Overcoming Opposition
 We have tried ct work out pro- grams with food dealers which would cause the least financial loss possible. Some delay has been met because of two or three large establishments which started to combat the enforcement of the ordinance by threatened litigation. but without exception. up tin now. fll have been won over and there is reasonable prospect that the enforce ment will proceed.
 Dr. Bowling said the department has eentered it's interest, so far. on the central part of the city and that the scope of enforcement will be gradually widened.. Handling of foods from the sidewalks to the stores will also be considered before protection can be thrown about the handling of foods inside stores.
 Refrigeratio of meats will be given attention as soon as several carloads of refrigeration display cases en route to Birmingham are installed.

 Bond Provision

 The speakers were Mrs. w. l.. Mur- dock, Mrs. w. D. Smith, Mrs. l.. J. Haley, Mrs. W. E. Fort, Mrs. David Roberts aud Mrs. Brenton K. Fisk.

 12.OO0 Patrons
 Over 12,000 women and children use the library and should be given the pro- lection of safe, substantial building in which to study, it was pointed out.
 President D. E. McLendon replied to the speakers with the statement that he personally favored including library bonds and wanted to put the question up to the voters at an election
 Commissioner William l.. Harrison, the only other board member who ex- pressed views at the time, reiterated his stand of opposition to anytking but schcol bonds at this time. However, he said he realized the importance of T- braries and suggested that bonds for them and other projects conid Be rap idly taken up after the school bonds were disposed of.
