In the kitchen he sorted the wet gar

for him, and he shook his head whim

TALK ON CURRENCY
Commission Holds a Meeting
at Washington.
(American News Service)

Washington, March 2S.-To ascer-
tain the views of bankers and other
persons familiar with financial mat
ters on the proposed reform of the
tary commission today began series
of hearings that will aid in determin-
ing what form of currency measure
shall be reported to congress. The
claims for a central banking institu-
ton drafted by Senator Aldrich was
used as the basis for discussion at
the hearing, which was attended by
the currency committee of the Ameri-
can bankers association. While many
changes probably will be made in the
plan before it is submitted to congress
its most prominent features seem to
meet with favor among practical bank
ers, who regard it as in the nature of
legalization of the clearing house
methods employed by the banks in
time Of panic.

Commercial Clubs Effort to
Secure Building for Small
Concerns Has Met with
Big Success.
KNITTING COMPANY.
LEASES A SECTION
Acceptance Of Plan Proposed
to Owners of West Side
Factory Building Will
Benefit the City.

The first fruits of the endeavor of
ters for small businesses by inducing
the owners of the factory building for
Manufacturing company, on the West
Side, to turn the structure into an in
dustrial plant" resulted yesterday
when about 1000 feet of space was
rented to the Richmond Knitting Mills
in charge of A. J. and Sanford Red
dish. Secretary Charles w. Jordan of
the Commercial club assisted the pro-
prietors of the concern in securing
quarters in the building.
The knitting mills which had been
pied by the Phoenix Shirt company at
the corner of Ninth and Main street,
had been almost entirely closed down
for several months because the rooms
were unadapted to it's need and it was
impossible to install the proper equip
ment there.
Was Boon to Company.
1t was not within the power of the
company to secure other quarters until
the Commercial club took up the in
dustrial plant" proposition with the
owners of the former Richmond Manu-
featuring building.
Seventeen machines, which will ne
cessitate the employment of about
ten men and girls will be installed in
the section of the factory building
leased by the company. The output
of the company. all kinds Of hosiery
is sold to firm in Philadelphia where
the stock is given the finishing touches
and placed on the market. 1t is eX
pected that the concern will now man
ufacture on an average of $1,000 pairs
of hosiery year.
The case of the knitting company is
pointed out by the Commercial club of
ficials as illustrating what was meant
when it was stated there were mum
ber of small businesses struggling or
under adverse circumstances in the
city which would be greatly benefited
by being able to secure modern factory
quarters on a rental basis.
