of the business before the Republican
State Central Committee, which met Al
the Hotel Rennert on Wednesday. The
date for the holding of the primaries
require dby the new primary law, was
the chief matter in hand and Chairman
Hanna was authorized to confer with
Chairman Vandiver with view to fixing
the date Of said primaries, which will
most likely occur on August 49, The
Chairman was further authorized to ap-
point special committee to confer with
the County committees of the Wilson
Law counties. relative to the advisable
ity of a short ballot in said counties.
The meeting was quite generally at
tended, it being anticipated that some
considerable light would be thrown on
the prospective Republican State tickes
for next falls election. As matter of

talked of, it being the general impression
that along in August representatives from
various parts of the State might come

Atlanta. July 27.-After months OF
investigation by officials Of the depart
ment of justice and the postoffice de-
partment Richard Purvis, Ernest o.
Helm, Guy King and w. N. Smith,
officers and former officers Of the
Southern Loan & Trust Co., were ar
rested today on charges Of the fraud
ulent use of the mails. The company
did business in all of the southern
states and operations involve, 1t is un-
derstood, between a half to three mil
lion dollars, The men were released
on bonds and their preliminary hear
ing will be held on August 18th.
According to Postal Inspector George
r. Cellar, the company did BUSINESS in
loan investment contracts, and a man
wishing to borrow money from the
concern paid $5 for a contract, which
bore number between l and 100.
Hundreds Of such contracts are sup
posed to have been sold. Each holder
was required to pay IS month
additional to the original outlay. A
man wishing to borrow a sum had to
wait until each contract holder holding
a number below his had obtained the
loan. When his turn came he had the
right to obtain what he wished from
the company. which would be paid
back with interest.
Oficers declare those holding high
numbers had little chance of being
able to borrow, and this phase, they
contend, formed the basis Of the
charge Of conducting a lottery. The
men under arrest are also charged
with using the mails to promote a lot
tery.
