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- Sir A. Gould Predicts Radium Cancer Cure Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.

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.

It is necersary that bank ers know as soon as possible whore they stand, or business can not move forward as it should. “I think Atlanta will be named for one of the reserve banks, and the Georgia Senators and Represents tives are helping all they can to bring this about.

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.
