Lee and others famous in American hif tory of scientific, literary and artistic life were unveiled at the Ne.w York university this Week. The fact that General Lee was recognized along with Abraham Lincoln and General U. S. .Grant is noteworthy in that the people of this na tion arc coming to a better understanding arid that sectional prejudices are fast passing out. A few years since it would not have been short of treason for one 'to have suggested that the bust of General Lee be placed in the Hall of Fame in this institution. How ever, the world-wide war has brought our people Closer together and imaginary lines of sectional likes and .dislikes will soon be obliterated for all time, to aome. lt is well.that this condition is being created lor it will bring to this nation a reunited citizenship and a brotherly'feeiinfc which Will bring all states - closer'together for the good of all. i .While the principle fought for was right, the cause fhould always^ bo kept alive in our; minds And .hearts aS one which should be held satTccl by all southern ers.. General Lee was true to his country and to;the cause he represented, .and while outnumbered and overwhelmed on the battle fields^ he stood firm for that which 1 he believed'to be’right and !ai(J dqWrt hie sword after every vestige of hope had disappeared for a victory. It was right and proper for the au thorities of this university to recognize him as one of the great men of America and one descrying a place in the Hail of Famo of this famous institution. It will help to cement a friendly feeling between the states which no other agency c'ould have brought about We are glad it has been done; we congratu late those in authority and we believe that we speak for the whole south appreciation and gratitude of the honor shown our, greatest hero, soldier and statesman. olnirille . .. ifficcs t, A- UlrtlaM rmd ftlr.

CREDIT RESERVOIR IS UNTOUCHED - One of the imost .curious.phenomena of the, present economic situation !s ty be found in the fact thut eROt’-;, inous expansion of trade and production in the last year is not reflected in the reserve position Of the fed- ■ eral resefve* system.

It is explained largely by thV heavy imports of gold which have continued for many’ months. In. 1922 tho golden flood brought to • America $238,000,0011. This gold was received - -by member banks and deposited as reserves with the . federal reserve system. For every dollar of reserve deposits the member hank can extend $10 of credit ;-to i£s. customers. During last year loans and invest ments of member banks of the federal reserve system increased by over $2,100,000,000 and their, deposits increased $2,800,000^000 or roughly 10 times the amount of gold imports. The aggregate amount of bank loans in the country now Is vjrtually at the peak , reached in 1920. In addition to tho gold imports, the sale of investment holdings by hanks has enabled " them to meet the needs of the business expansion,*r without restyting to the reserve system. -iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiii PARAMOUNT • SALAD • DRESSING When Run-down From the Grip—or You in aiWeatefa tlo^j Here’s Atlanta, • Ga;-W quaintccr with-Dr. Ijflerces Gold en (Medical Discovery some -years and the 'Golden Medical 1 Discovery* cured tiw nnd their kept • me in good health. * i; -r . . i "My husband* had the 'flu* and it left him weak and Jicarcoly able to bo aro] * ** on Mtdibai helped him wonderfully.
