NEW RECORD SET
IN CITY BUILDING
Birmingham Passes At
lanta BY Big Margin
For Two Months

3 Birmingham has passed Atlanta in
construction of new buildings and value
of new buildings for the first time.
Members Of the staff Of J. e. Spen-
Ger, city building inspector, who re-
CARDS each permit issued as personal
achievement, were happy Friday over
the showing of the compared reports.
For the first two months of 1924
Birmingham shows a construction in
vestment of $2,S50,5S3 against $2,45S,-
034 for Atlanta, or difference in favor
of Birmingham of S392,547.
Birmingham followed Atlanta in
January, 1924, by fraction. In Feb
ruary the Alabama metropolis surged
ahead with a difference of quarter of
a million, plus.
Just what Atlanta will have for its
March showing is not known here, but
Birmingham figures are pressing the
two million mark. The close of the
record for. the month of March will
show that the financial investment in
new structures in Birmingham during
the first three months of 1924 exceeds
any entire year in the history of the
city save the last four.
