OFFICERS PROMINENT.
The new bank officers are well

the corfidence of the community, it
is: announced, and are men of ca
pacity and represent substantial in
terests in Fairburn.
. Reopening of the Fairburn Banking
|Company is made possible by an as
sessment on stockholders. |
l The next step in the Fairburn
Banking case will be the hearing in
Atlanta courts Saturday of proceed
ings by Clarence Bradstreet and his
wife, Mrs. Agnes Cathcrine Brad
_street, to recover jewelry and cloth
ling valued at many thousand dol
lars, which were taken from them at
[ the time of their arrest here. The
%radstreets contend the clothing and
jéwelry were not purchased with
money given Mrs. Bradstreet by W.
B. Green, the ousted vice president
of the bank, who is charged with
embezzlement of many thousands of
dollars.
TO RESIST FIGHT.
The jewelry and clothing proceed
ings will be vigorously resisted by
the attorneys for the banking com
pary. They want to hold and later
sell the property for the benefit of
the stockholders of the bank.
Then the next step will be thé
grand jury's investigation of the
charges of embezzlement against
Green, the vice president, and the
Bradstreets. ‘
If the grand jury returns indict
ments, the Bradstreets and Green
will be tried in the regular session
in February of the Circuit Court at
Fairburn. ‘
At pnresent the Bradstreets and
Green are at liberty on bond.
Green, it will be recalled, told a
story of having been held up, gagged
and robbed and the bank set afire
by masked bandits. The embezzle
ment charges, involving Mrs. Brad
street, followed within two weeks
Green denied the charges.

A Clean Newspaper for Southern Homes
The present City Commercial High
School Building in South Pryor street
will be purchased Saturday by ° the
county commission at a cost of $150,-
000 and will be converted into a home
for the county High school, it was
regarded as certain Thursday by
commissioners.
This will mean that the Commer
clal High will have to seek a new
home.
The failure of the city to renew
its lease on the building, following
an increase in rental, it was said, is
responsible for the offer~ of the
property to the county. The offer
was made by the Kiser Realty Com
pany.
FINAL ACTION DRFERRED.
The proposition was before the
commission at its regular session
Wednesday, but final action was de
ferred to Saturday on objection
ralsed by Commissioner C, R. Turner,
who insisted that the county is not
financially able to take over the
property at this time. '
= “We are now facing such a time as
‘we have never seen before in the
matter of real estate values—they are
higher than ever before—and within
the next two to five years this build
ing may not be worth nearly so much
as it is today,” said Mr: Turner.
“The county also is facing an in
debtedness of nearly $1,000,000, with
other projects in view, and I don’t see
how we can make this purchase.”
He asked that the commissioners
take more time to think over the
matter, and a final vote was then
postponed until the special session
Saturday afternoon.
; PAY RAISE MOVE WINS.
A spiritel fight developed at the
Wednesday session over a proposi
tion that the commission ask the
Legislature to amend. the law creat
in the Municipal Court, so as to give
the county the right to raise salaries
of Municipal Court employees not to
exceed 25 per cent. No opposition
was expressed to a raise for the
employees, but some of the commis
sioners said they saw no need of tak
ing action at this time, when the
-Legislature does not meet until next
summer. Chief Judge E. D. Thomas
explained that he feared some of the
employees would quit unless they
were given hope of a raise soon. The
resolution, favoring the amendment,
finally was passed by a vote of three
to two, Chairman Poole, and Com
missioners Ethridge and Turner vot
ing for it, and Commissioner Oscar
Mills and Dr, W. L. Gilbert against.
The commission algso voted an in
crease 0%‘?25 per month to the sal
aries of uis P. Marquardt, Plennie
Miner and James Garrison, assist
ants in the office of Solicitor John
A. Boykin. This action was taken on
request of the solicitor.
