INVESTMENT West 4th Ave. Property

 The one big thing that is going to operate more for the benefit of the Birmingham of the fu- ture is, in my opinion, going to be RESTRICTED IMMIGRA- TON (due respect to "Pittsburg Plus" in passing). In other words, the flow of the thou sands of cheaply paid employees from Europe into the hands of the northern manufacturers has ceased. The point that am try ing to make, which is entirely obvious, is that Birmingham, with the only really big resources of the South is placed in a very advantageous position with our comparative cheap labor, which is the negro. He is now being paid on a wage scale an average of 100 per cent more money than he was receiving a short number of years ago. Northern manu- lecturers casting about for a new location will seize on Bir- mingham-and What Will Be the Result? The average colored employees wages will continue to advance and he will experi- ence a new degree of prosperity. Where will this prosperity be felt?
 White business property is ap- parently expected to go in four or five different directions at the same time. Negro business prop erty will, and cannot go else where, than west on 4th Ave.

Trees to Displace Signs

Trees to beautify the scenery along
motor routes in place Of billboards Is
the goal Of the Colorado Springs Au-

to the Christian Science Monitor.
Threats of the club to tear down all
signs persisting in violation Of law re-
suited in removal Of many unsightly
signs by owners, and the club mem
bers themselves removed many from
Ute pass, one Of the most famed spots
in the Rockies, whose Disagreement
has been much criticized by citizens
and visitors.

highway and the new motor highway
to the summit of Pixies peak both
lead to the region beyond the Rock
les. The Ute Indian came from the
other side of the range through this
pass to the famous mineral springs of
Manitou, in the olden days.
An order has been placed by the
club for 10000 trees. now seedlings
to be planted in its nurseries and
later transplanted along the main
roads leading into Colorado Springs.
This act alone has won many friends
for the club and much cooperation

Clean Up Back Yards

A national movement for cleaning
up the unsightly back yards" OF
cities, which they exhibit to travellers
along railroad rights of way, has been
inaugurated by the industrial division
of the National Association of Real
Estate Boards.
Industrial commissioners of all rail-
roads in the United States will CO.
operate with the industrial realtors
in the cleanup campaign. CONNER
cial associations and civic organiza-
lions in the cities will be asked to
take an active part in making the right
of way outlook represent their cities
fairly to the travelling public
Appalling neglect that industries
throughout the country, especially in
the smaller communities, give to that
part of their properties visible from
the right of way, is emphasized by
the division in outlining its program.
The exposure Of piles Of ashes, rub
ibish and junk is no way to build up
interest in the community on the part
of passers through the town who
might become permanent residents
the division contends
Together with the cleanup cam
tpaign, the division calls attention to
the desirability of enabling the trav,
eler to identify easily the towr
through which he is passing.
ntercity exchange Of business In
industrial real estate is another mat
ter which the division is studying. 10
seph Kramer, Dayton, Ohio, is chair
man Of the committee which Is de
veloping the possibilities in such an
interchange. The division is also
studying the best ways Of developing
the industrial districts Of cities.

Swamp Root a Fine Medicine

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition y
Poor health makes you nervous, irritable
and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine will do for them.
By enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive
sample size bottle by parcel post. You

Urges Smaller Cities to
Widen Through Streets

"Widen and open up necessary ar
terial streets and avenues to handle
present and future motor vehicle traffic
now" is the recommendation OF
Thomas P. Henry, president OF the
American Automobile association.
!. Mr.. Henry feels that one of the most
important fields Of club activities is to
cooperate in every way possible with
the traffic authorities of the various
cities In the solution Of problems rel
alive to handling the constantly in
creasing traffic. The question, ne
points out, not only involves expedit-
ing traffic but also the saving Of lives.
practically all of our cities and
larger towns were planned before the
I days of the motor vehicle" he said in
a recent bulletin. MANY cities and
towns were developed to their present
proportions without any plan. With
narrow streets or without an adequate
number of connected thoroughfares
from the suburbs to the heart of the
city, traffic authorities in the majority
of our cities are staying awake nights
wondering how they are going to ham
die the present day motor traffic. Tenn
porary expediencies such as more traf-
&c officers and one-way streets are
adopted with the realization that these
measures are not going to meet the
situation year or two from now with
the corresponding increase Of traffic
which has been noted during the last
few years.
1.-THE question Of solving local traffic
problems can be answered by q scien-
tific study of the needs of city and
how they may be met.
1.-THE lesson which the larger cities
are learning from experience, should
prompt smaller cities and towns to
begin their city planning to take care
Of future motor vehicle traffic now and
not wait until it becomes imperative
and the cost of widening and connect
ing streets becomes almost prohibi-
tive"
