In addition to the foregoing ex perience, I have been, for fifteen years, president of the Elberton Loan and Savings Bank, in which capacity I may say have gained wide practical experience concerning the operation of these laws; and, as a result of which I am in a, position to recommend certain improve ments in the present laws which will better safeguard the interests of the depositors in Georgia’s state banks “If elected to this important po sition, I shall give my every effort to the -faithful discharge of its duties, to assist '.ue in which 1 shall secure the services of trauw.l, expert and capable assistants. “I respectfully request the favor able consideration of the democrat ic voters of the state.
