M'DAVID FIRM
 WILL ENLARGE
Company Increases Force With Removal Of
 Offices

Rapid expansion in business of the E. R. McDavid, Jr., Real Estate and Insurance company has brought a re- moval of the Twenty-first street offices to 2109 First avenue. Extensive re- modelling of the new headquarters are now underway, with the plan to make it one of the best equipped real estate houses in Birmingham.
 With the location established the firm plans to increase its sales force 100 per cent besides the addition of a dozen agents for the Alabama National Life Insurance company. There are also some enlargements contemplated for the residential development depart ment. Under plans considered by the firm around 60 new homes will be erected every year.
 Later in the year the McDavid or ganizatiOn will launch an innovation in the local market through the sale of real estate certificates. These certif- icates will be held against first mort gages on property, an arrangement which will be particularly attractive to the smaller invester.
 The McDavid firm is one of the youngest organizations in the field and through the energy and activity of its president, E. R. McDavid, Jr., it is becoming one of the strongest.

 Operators who cater to transient trade are the most bitter in their pro- tests. For these houses it takes a long time to build reputation and a new location means practically a fresh start.

City's Expansion Forecast
 By Southern Phone Manager
Baird Predicts Annual Construction Program Oi
 l2Million To Care For Growth

a
 There are few men better posted on the future possibilities and probable ex. pansion of the Birmingham district than T. Barton Baird.
 In his position as district manager of the Southern Bell Telephone company, he has command of statistics which forecast the districts future. These statistics are the result of several years scientific study and have proved sell dom wrong.
 Occasionally Baird is prevailed upon to address one of the numerous civic organizations. When he does, his talk abounds with valuable information of exceptional interest to the business man and the realtor particularly, because he is most vitally concerned with seeing into the future
 25 Per Cont Growth.
 Not long ago Baird talked before the Ensley Merchants and Business Mems association at which time he stated that 25 per cent of Birmingham's 1940 population would be in North Ensley, Wylam and Pratt City that it's percentage of increase between 1920 and 1940 would be around 140 per cent.
 HI fuH0A tAAB AuAFCJ WuAGN resulted in this prediction Baird said {:
 Some people. think that prophecy ing a city's growth is mere guess work, but such is not the case. The provi- sional estimates are based on certain definite known data and arrived at aft CT careful and analytical study of all factors which may reasonably be expect ed to affect the result.
 '9rhe demand for additional telephone facilities and service is but the reflec- tiOn of growth in population and in or der to provide the necessary telephone facilities in the most orderly and eco nomical way to meet the necessary in, creasing demands of the population, it is the practice of the telephone com pany to make surveys of all of the larger cities in which they operate. Such studies are continually underway and each one is revised about every five years. These studies, which go most carefully into all of the factors affect ing the prospective growth of each city, forecast the growth and development in business and population for 5, .15 or 20 year periods. All the data obtained in these studies is kept on file and form the basis for a fundamental telephone plan for each city.
 Industries Listed.
 "As q basis for the study, a house count or census of the city is taken by trained forces. The results are tabulated, digested and analysed by specialists who do nothing else but make these studies in various parts of the country. All vacant property and land is recorded, and the families are classified by rental values of the houses.
 Under the head of the character of the community study is made of the chief it-.psSries of the city, transporta-

tiOn facilities, both land and water {; the wealth of the community, as we'll as the Industrial and commercial rela- tions with the adjoining territories. In addition, data is obtained as to the character of the population, the percent age of foreign or mixed nationalities, the amount of illiteracy, the school fa- cilities and all other factors having bearing upon the general growth and development. What may be called the soul or spirit and progressive civic spirit is frequently worth more to city than many material advantages would be worth without such a civic spirit.
 ..'In -forecasting the future growth of Birmingham, 1t was considered that from all indications the Birmingham district is destined to become an in- creasing factor in the steel industry. In making. .recheck of the survey in 1920 there was found a great lack of dwellings to house the people and there is no small job confronting the citizens of Birmingham to house adequately peo- pie and business firms if the district is to grow to half a million in the six teen years to come.
 Heavy Building Program.
 'sTO care for the anticipated growth in population we have forecast build ing program which will average an an- nual expenditure for the next ten years of oyer 12 milliop per year. This is a matter of vital interest to every busi- ness man in Birmingham and have no doubt that the business interests of the city will take adequate measures to care for this large increase in eonstruc- tion work.
 "Other matters of great interest to the people of Birmingham are consid cred in the survey here-the estimated number and most advantageous location of school buildings, hospitals and other public buildings, also the location of city parks, which experience has shown are very important in the development of q modern. city"

STRONG FEELING EVlNCED AT END
 OF THIRD WEEK
Slight Seasonal Defec- ton In Local Real
 Estate Mart

Although some seasonal defleetion is nOtieeable,i in the real estate market the tone continues good and the week closed stronger than any since the month opened.
 Recent turn in the grade crossing scramble had it's effect on southside activity, but on the. whole it was not as depressing aa might be surmised. The public seems bent on taking ad- vantage of the present speculative mar ket and the activity in all sections is expected to keep up extraordinarily throughout the fall.
 Saturdays trading developed two more purchases by R. NJ. Ingram, of Anniston, who has been a prominent figure in the recent fluctuations of values. Ingram added to his holdings on the southside by taking over a piece of property on Avenue D and also nurses home of the Birmingham Gen eral hospital at figures aggregating around $80,OO0.
 The nurses home property is To- cated at 2412 Fifth avenue and it is reported that Ingram will improve the present. building. Edwin I. Simon for merly owned the property. The Avenue D property figuring in the deal was owned by w. N. Malone and is located 1911. Spread of the automobile dis trict has brought this locality in de- mand, it is said.
 Both of the above mentioned deals were swung by Hyman Leader, .Op-, orator of the Ingram Land company.
 The most important transaction of last week was engineered by the Mes ser-J Johnson Realty company in the sale of theAmerican Express company build ing at Nineteenth street and Morris avenue. The reported figure in, the trade for the same property six months site is not located in the vicinity of ''active" values, the sum is around $25,- GOO over the amount given out in a trade for the same piece six months aR0
