date decided upon for the great *Go-
to-Church Day.’ If the Lord gives j
us a good day on this date the sue- !
cess of the Sunday is more than as
sured.
"This day presents a rare oppor
tunity to throw the light on the true
state of affairs in our city, and I sug
gest that on this day we shall confine
ourselves, one and all. to a sermon on
Atlanta.”
The members of the executive
committee characterized the "Go-to-
Church" plan as right in the line of
endeavor toward which a considera
ble part of their endeavors had been
directed. They pledged their co-op
eration and extended their wishes for
a record-breaking day.
Movement To Be Permanent.
With the action of the committee,
the "Go-to-Church” plan now has the
formal indorsement of the Men and
Religion Forward Moveemnt, the
Evangelical Ministers’ Association,
and the Baptist Ministerial Associa
tion. besides the individual indorse
ment of every minister in the city
who has expressed an opinion on the
subject.
That the movement will not die out
with ihe “Go-to-Church Day” of 1918
was made evident by the action of
the Evangelical Ministers in author
izing the appointment of a commit
tee by each church to carry on the
movement toward a larger church
attendance throughout tlie year.
There is no intention of letting the
beneficial effects of "Go-to-Church
Day” wane. The committees to be
appointed will be charged with see
ing that the people who come to
church December 14 are asked and
urged to come again.
The negro churches of Atlanta
have entered as enthusiastically Into
the plans as the whites. The pastors
of many of the churches already
have placed the proposition before
their congregation? with an earnest
plea for their attendance on the day
named. \
The project will furnish a depend-

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Robert F.
Maddox, vice president of the Amer
ican National Bank of Atlanta, in
Washington representing the banks
of Atlanta in conference with Sena
tors Bacon and Smith on pending
currency legislation, believes Atlan
ta's chance to secure one of the pro
posed regional reserve banks most ex.
cellent.
Mr. Maddox feels certain that At
lanta will secure one of these reserve
banks if the bill provides for twelve,
and very confident of securing one
even though the bill may call for eight
only.
Mr. Maddox states that the banks
of the South, mo far as he has been
advised, greatly prefer the amended
bill as approved by the Senate Dem
ocrats to the Glass bill as passed Lv
the House.
Banks Favor Senate Bill.
If the Senate bill is ^enacted .into
law. the Atlanta banker believes
banks generally throughout the na
tion will cordially comply with the
provisions of Ijie same. Otherwise,
he is by no means so sure.
"The success or failure of the new
currency legislation." said Mr. Mad
dox. ' will depend in large measure. I
think, upon the quality of the men
the President names for the Fedenl
reserve boards. These men. who will
act with the Secretary of the Treas
ury, should be men of the very highest
and most approved type.
"In connection with the proposed
currency legislation, too. it is to be
hoped that the President will not
press his anti-trust program too far
just now, particularly with the new
tariff law getting under way.

Famous Lightning
Calculator Dead
KANSAS CITY, MO. Dec. 2.—
Reuben Field. the widely-known
rapid calculator, is dead at the Jack-
son County farm. Field regarded
hia mathematical powers as a gift
of God that would be taken from
him if he turned it to worldly gain
in Washington, and it believes it wOq
now to make haste rather cautiously'
The new currency law may be out of
the way by January 1; if go. so much
the better. It is neceesary that bank
ers know as soon as possible where
they stand, or business can not move
forward a~s it should.
"I think Atlanta will be named for
one of the reserve banks, and the
Georgia Senators and Representa
tlves are helptng all they can to bring
this about. They are very confident
of success.’*
With the close of the present year
less than a month off. Police Chief
Beavers Tuesday expressed himself
as pleased with the order maintained
in the city during the year, and man
ifested pronounced optimism over
the prospects for a big decrease in
disorders and the number of arrests
fo.* 1914.
The Chief declared that an erro
neous impression that had prevailed
In the minds of a certain element that
the restricted district again would be
opened full blast this year has been
dissipated, and that this means
marked improvement all along the
crime line in the coming year
With December to be heard from,
it is expected tliat the total number
of caaes for the year will show a Je-
• reawe in comparison with last year.
Chief Beavers is satisfied that, with
vice conditions more settled, the
year 1914 will show a big increase.
Police Cases About Same.
Police cases in 1912 totaled 17,139.
Up to the first of December, the to
tal for this year was 15.632.
The total number of "drunks" up
to December 1 was 2.833. The
"drunks" in 1912 totaled 3.021.
Indications jioint to an increase in
the matter of "drunks."
Commenting on this showing, Re
corder Nash Broyles declared that
the large amount of drunkenness in
the city principally is traceable to
locker clubs These clubs are more
responsible than the ordinary blind
tigers, he said
Big Slump Since “Wet” Days.
"We have so many locker dubs,
and it is so easy to get liquor in them
that it is n«rt surprising we have so
much drunkenness." said Judge
Broyles.
