ATLANTA TO SET
I
Racked by the unanimous indorse-
JVI . n: () f the Evangelical Ministers'
\iation of Atlanta, the special
committee selected to complete ar
rangements for "Go-to-Church Day”
• nd draft a program which may bo
follow d by the churches of the city,
u,. c ,qn its work Tuesday.
The ministers will have before
t ) lom for consideration at their first
( onference the suggestions that a
ppneral text he recommended for
the preachers, that the musical part
of the sendee he made one of the
features of the day, and that a prom
inent member of each congregation
r asked to make a five-minute ad-
, pres at one of the services on the
spirit of the day.
The twenty-seventh verse of the
first chapter of James already has
,.. -i suggested as an admirable text
• iat may be employed by all the
ministers who wish to follow the
general program.
Text Likely To Be Indorsed.
The verse is—“Pure religion and
mdeflled before our God and Father
s this: To visit the widows and fa-
• uerless in their affliction and to
Wp himself unspotted from the
world ”
It is expected that the committee
nil] indorse this.
The committee also will outline a
musical program which will be
jtvommpnded to the ministers for the
two services.
The members of the committee are
the Rev. H. M. DtiRose. First Meth
odist Church; the Rev. John E.
White, Second Baptist Church: the.
Rev. J. Wade Conkling. Unitarian
church; the Rev. W. W. Memminger.
All Saints Episcopal Church; the
Rev. Richard Orme Flinn, North Ave
nue Presbyterian Church, and the
Rev F. A. Line, Universalist
Church.
Close on the indorsement given the
4 Go-to-Church Day” plan Monday
hv the Evangelical Ministers’ Asso

of approval by the executive commit

Movement which met in Durand’s to
consider the most important work
the organization has at hand.

date decided upon for the great ‘Go- |
to-Church Day.’ If the Lord gives
us a good day on this date the suc
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 1 sug
gest that on this day we shall confine
ourselves, one and alj. to a sermon or
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 the "Go-to-Church Day" of 1913
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 the year.
There is no intention of letting tjhe
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 congregations with an earnest
plea for their attendance on the day
named.
The project will furnish a depend-

Financier, in Capital to Aid Geor
gia Senators, Discusses Amend
ed Currency Measure.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 2. Robert !•*.
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, so far as he has be ft n
advised, greatly prefer the amende J
bill as approved by the Senate Dem
ocrats to the Glass bill as passed Lv
the House.
Banks Favor c ?nate 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 the 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 Federal
reserve boards. These men. who will
act with the Secretary of the Treas
on. should be men of the very highest
and most approved type.
"In connection with the propose!
currency legislation, too. it is to b a

tariff law getting under way.

KANSAS CITY, MO, Dec. 2 —

now to make haste rather cautiously.
The new currency law may be out of
the way by January 1; if so. so much
the better. It Is necessary that bank
ers know as soon as possible where
they stand, or business can not move
forward as it should.

this about. They are very confident

Reavers Tuesday expressed himself
ns 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
for 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 he
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 that the total number
of cases f6r the year will show a de
crease in comparison with last year.
Chief Beavers is satisfied that, wdth
vice conditions more settled, the
year 1914 will show a big Increase
Police cases in 1912 toialed 17,139.
Up to the first of December, the to
tal for this year was 16,632.
The total number of “drunks” up
to December 1 was 2.833. The
"drunks” in 1912 totaled 3,021.
Indications point 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.
"We have so many locker clubs.
«nd it is so easy to get liquor in them
that it is not surprising we have so
much drunkenness,” said Judge
Broyles.
