h |s expected that the committee
will indorse this.
The committee also will outline a
musical program which will he

The members of the committee are

White. Second Baptist Church; the
Rev .1 Wade Conkling, Unitarian
church, the Rev. W. W. Memminger

Rev. Rich rd Orme Flinn, North Ave
nue Presbyterian Church, and the
Rev F. A. Line, Universalist
Church.
Close on the indorsement given the
-to-Chufch Day’' plan Monday
hy the Evangelical Ministers’ Asso-
iation, came an emphatic resolution
of approval by the executive commit-
•ee of the Men and Religion Forward
Movement which met In Durand's to
consider the most important work
the organization has at hand.
Will Try to Fill Churches.
The resolution was introduced b>
the Rev. H M. DuBose, of the First
Methodist Church. Before submil-
:ing his resolution, the Rev. Mr. Du
Bose said:
Every effort will be made to fill
ur churches on December 14. the
date decided upon for the great ‘Go-
to-Church Day.’ Tf the Lord gives
us a good day on this date the suc
cess of the Sunday is more than as
sured.
“'Phis 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 or
Atlanta.”
The members of the executive
committee characterized the “Go-to-
Chureh” 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 “Oo-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 hy 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 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, so far as he has been
advised, greatly prefer the amended
bill as approved by the Senate Dem
ocrats to the Glass bill as passed L»v
the House.
Banks Favor Psnate Bill.
If the Senate bill is enacted into
law r , 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
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 fur
just now’, particularly with the new
tariff law getting under way.
Georgia Senators Confident.
“The country realizes that some

With the close of the present year
less than a month off, Police Thief
Beavers Tuesday expressed himself
ns pleased with fHe 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 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 that the total number
of ons -s for the year will show a de
crease in f'omparison with last year
Thief Beavers is satisfied that, with
vice condition? more settled, the
year 1914 will show a big increase.
Police cases In 1912 totaled 17,139.
Up to the first of December, fhe'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 point to an increase in
the matter of “drunks.”
Tommentlng on this showing, Re
corder Nash Broyles declared that
the large amount of drunkenness in
tlie 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,
and it is so easy to get liquor in them
that it is not surprising we have so
much drunkenness.” said Judge
Broyles.
