Just how thoroughly the shop
early" movement has taken hold in
Wilmington can very readily be had
thes days should the casual observer
pay a little visit to the express Off
ces and the freight departments on the
railroads.
The railroads are buster than they
have been for months just now and
express companies are knee deep in
the rush The rooms OF the companies
are piled high with boxes, and pack
ages destined for all parts of the
country-and even to the far away
Philippines and China.
Most of the goods intended for for
eign shores, however, is already ON
the way as the senders ordinarily al
low a little time for the purpose
Extra cars arc to be put on by the
railroads to take care Of the rush and
whilo the movement has been decided
" on the increase during the last week
or 50, this week will be a mighty
week according to the big stats of
employees who will handle this work.
We'll, there's one fine thing about
this" declared ono freight man, this
Christmas shop early idea is respon-
sible for this rush now-and 1t Is
good thing for us. OF course we
would get the extra work anyway but
by getting 10 it a little earlier we get
little leeway. It's as much OF a
help to us as to the shop girls
One matter urged by the express
men is the marking OF packages 10

NO BATTLE SCENES
IN THESE PICTURES

Although the local Police Depart
ment had put censorship on all pic@
lures dealing with war scenes be-
tween Italy aud Turkey, it was neces-
sary to act in the matter again yes
terday as another local theatre an
nounced by posters that such yiews'
would be exhibited.
Chief of Police Black sent Tor the
owner of the theatre and told him OF
the order prohibiting the pictures
Chief Black later viewed the pictures
which showed Italian troops landing
in Tripoli but there was no pattie
scene. As representatives of the To-
cal Italian societies were satished
with the view they were allowed to be
shown.

In connection with the coronation fes-
tivities it has been suggested that another
GOdivia procession should be held at
Coventry. After the pickering which cen
tered round the principal figure on the
previous occasion, many thought the
tlady" had ridden for the last time. II
is now hoped, in the exceptional circum-
stances, that the Ratchet viii be buried
and that Coventry, like other cities. will
be enabled TO celebrate the coronation with
its distinctive pageant. Canon Masterman
has suggested that the lady should be
dressed as a Saxon countess and be ac-
eompanied by the earl This idea has not
met with much favor from the Older Cow
entry citizens who contend that any de-
parture from custom viii rob the process
sion Of it's historic interest. Too much
buffoonery, it is said. has taken place in
previous pageants.

BANKING
PLAN DISCUSSED
Monetary Commission Finds
Scheme Acceptable to
Bankers.

The National Monetary COMMISSION
has adjourned. after a conference OF two
days, to meet at the call Of the chair
man. Senator Aldrich. The commission
has been hearing the currency commit
tee Of the American Bankers Assocla-
ton. Most of the features OF the
Aldrich plan for a central banking insu-
tuition have been found acceptable 70
the bankers. -
One of the chief subjects CT discussion
between the commission and the cur
rency committee Of the bankers was the
disposition of the 2 per cent Government
bonds now largely held by the national
banks as security for circulation. 49,.
In case the Government goes TO tne
plan Of issuing notes not based on on 1TSe tSs
2 per cents will drop below par. Repre-
sentatives Of the banks think the ma
tional reserve association proposed p1
the Aldrich bill should take over at
par the bonds held by the banks.
They were inclined to recommeno
too. that IL in the future the Govern.
ment issue bonds bearing higher rate oi
interest, the association should have the
right to exchange its holdings IN pei
cent bonds for the bonds OF greater
value.
The bankers thought the association
could carry the per cent bonds at par
as assets whereas they contended the
per cents should be charged down 70
about 75 cents on the dollar as cash
asset.
The monetary commission plans an ac-
tive campaign through the summer
with a view to having the currency re-
form measure completed to submit To
Congress at the opening Of the regular
geSaiOn.
