John Skelton Williams, former
controller of the currency (portrait
herewith), has been having a lively
time with federal reserve system offi
cials before a congressional commis
sion. His •criticisms of the systems’
credit policies aroused resentment on
the part of the system’s two highest
officers, Governor Harding of the re
serve board, and Governor Strong of
the New York reserve bank. In one
of the frequent verbal interchanges,
Governor Harding charged across the
committee room, swinging his list, but
was halted by struggling associates
just in front of his adversary. A
few minutes later Mr. Strong, while
reading to the commission a report
which charged Mr. Williams with
“false and misleading Statements,” was
interrupted by the former controller
who shouted
Mrs. R. W. Mundy, in company with
Mr. and Mrs. Luther Brown, all of

Thornton last Sunday p. m.
We wish to thank most sincerely

were so tender and thoughtful of us
and rendered their assistance to us
in the recent illness and death of our

press our gratitude to you for your
assistance in time of need. We es
pecially thank Dr. Jones and the ones
who stood by and did all in their

Mr. Williams charged that the
board had countenanced undue lendings to a New York banking group during
the last two years, for speculative uses, while forcing liquidation in southern
and western agricultural districts, and that It had allowed extortionate in

Open Disarmament Conference
FARM LOANS
I make farm loans in Fayette and
other nearby counties. See or
write me.
Senator Hiram Johnson of Cali
fornia has issued a statement in which
lie says that the sessions of the forth
coming disarmament conference must
be open. He says:
“The disarmament conference
must be held in the open. I realize
the disadvantages of this course. 1
think I understand fully what may
be said against it. But we have had
our lesson. We have seen a world
conference, commencing under the
most favorable auspices, with ideal
ism publicly expressed, and then have
had that idealism throttled-in secrecy.
“The Old diploma He game is one
which at all hazurds must be avoided
in the coming conference, in order
that the world may be benefited and
that the ultimate object of disarma
ment and world peace may be ob
tained. The only way in which we
may avoid the pitfalls of secret diplo
macy is by the sunlight of publicity.
IN MEMORIAM
Something?
The death of W N. D. Dixon, which
occurred late Saturday afternoon,
February 12th. at his home in Fayette
ville, brought sadness to an unusually
large circle of kindred and friends.
Truly we have lost a good man. In
his death our church loses one of its
best, purest, and brightest members,
and our county one of its noblest citi
zens. -v
“Mr. Wordie.”- ,as he was ^imilia:r-
' aify' cahert, numbered fife friends by
the hundreds, who admired him for
his/, noble traits of character.
He was a man of strong convictions,
Ad had the courage of his convict
ions.
He stood for the right at all times
and fearlessly condemned the wrong.
Where he was wrong, it was an error
of the head and not of the heart.
From a very young man he was
a faithful worker in the Methodist
church and was his pastor’s true
,;friend.
He served twelve years as superin
tendent of schools in Fayette coun
ty, over twenty years as steward of
the church, and teacher in the Sab
bath school, was for several years
president of the county Sunday school
association, and served the la^t three
years of his life as farm demonstrator
of Fayette county. He was also edit
or of The Fayetteville News for a
number of years.
It might truly be said of him that,
“he went about doing good."
He dearly loved all the boys and
girls of Fayette county and delighted
in helping them. No one can tell how
l^uch these boys and girls miss his
visits to their homes, and his kindly
words of council and advice.
He gave the best years of his life
to the people of his county, assisting
in school work, church, Sunday school
and community life and in any sphere
in which he was needed, always ready,
eager and anxious to speak a kind
word or do a good deed.
The writer has heard him many
mines make the remark that he want
ed to live to be an old man and do
as > much good as possible in this
world.
But God said that it was enough,
come up higher, and he was prepared
to go.
He had the confidence of all, and
many came to him for counsel and ad
vice.

GEORGIA GETS
WORLD’S GREATEST
BIBLE SCHOLAR
Athens, Ga., September 7.—One of
the world’s greatest religious leaders,
Dr. Campbell Morgan, of London,
England, has selected, Athens, Geor
gia, as his home in order that his
children may enjoy the educational
advantages of the University.
“This is my third visit to Athens
during the twenty-five years since I
made my first voyage to America,'’
said Dr. Morgan in discussing his
choice of the University city as a
home, “and I think it is an ideal
place to live and educate my chil
dren.’’
Dr. Morgan, who is known as one
of the greatest, if not the greatest
Bible scholars in the world, will hold
a two weeks’ Bible conference for
ministers of all denominations in
Athens in March.
He will move to Athens, September
15th, and will put his son in the
University of Georgia, and his two
younger daughters in Lucy Cobb In
stitute.
Dr. Morgan, who was formerly pas
tor of Westminster Chapel in Lon
don, is greatly interested in the his
tory of our times. He is a personal
friend of /Lloyd George and other
leaders in politics and statesmanship.
