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.

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.

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.

The new currency law may be out of the way by January 1; if so. so much the better.
