"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- Sir A.

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.

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. mmmBBsamssmz-mm SK3K ■ ■ ’-'Jii.v. =? -v ■ ' v-' ’"I ■■*8 w: Air f—Eft s;xV.. a-v-TN-mninn The Kind You lta\<- \lway.s Gpught lias ixsriie the signa ture of Chas.
