with manipulating as genuine forged
notes to the value of $25O,OOO. The

MONEY WILL ARRIVE
LATE This AFTERNOON
Consigned to the First-NationaI Bank
of Commerce and Will Be Used to
Meet the Rapidly Increasing Busi-
ness Needs Of the District.

As an indication Of rapidly return
ing prosperity it may be stated that
the First-National Bank of Commerce
will receive from the Comptroller of
/ the Currency at Washington this af-
ternoon approximately 100000 in cur
rency.
This is believed to be the largest
single shipment Of money ever made
to a Mississippi banking institution
by the treasury department. It is
certainly the biggest batch Of money
ever reaching this city in a lump sum.
Mr. Frank w. Foote active vice
president Of the First-National Bank
Of Commerce. said that the money
was secured to meet the needs of the
bank and to supply the demands of
reviving industry in the Hattiesburg
trade territory.
The banks Of Hattiesburg. like all
other wellmanaged institutions. are
still cautious. But they are not the
least BIT close-fsted. The man who
can make the right sort Of a note can
get all the money he needs for legiti
mate business uses.
The pay rolls of the Hattiesburg dis
trict have increased many times over
during the past several weeks and the
shipment of currency received by the
Flrst-National Bank of Commerce to-
day is in denominations such as are
used most by the mills and factories.
There is no better barometer Of
business conditions than local hanks
and the banks of Hattlesburg are all
enjoying substantial increases in the
volume and character Of their busi-
ness.

EDWARDS IS ANXIOUS
FOR SUPREME COURT
to DECIDE QUESTION

Jackson, Miss. October 15.-In
event Governor Noel accepts the sug-
gestion of State Treasurer George R.
Edwards, Jr., to submit the new state
depository law to the supreme court
for a ruling on its constitutionality,
and for specific decision as to the
legal right of the treasurer to refuse
to accept surety bonds from banks at
tempting to qualify as repositories,
the question will be placed directly be-
fore that tribunal on an agreed state
of facts, the preparation of which will
doubtless be the work of the attorney
general.
The main question for decision is
whether surety bonds constitute col
lateral of the kind specified by the
new depository law. Treasurer Ed
wards maintains thst his only reason
for refusal TO accept surety of this
character is his firm belief that it
would not be in accordance with the
letter or spirit of the law. and it is
his natural desire to protect his bonds
men. However, if the supreme court
holds that security of this sort is valid,
