BANKING YEAR IS
DRAWING TO
CLOSE
FILING STATEMENTS
WITH AUDIToR-TWELvE
FAILURES THIS YEAR.
Special to The Nea

Special to The NetoS.
Jackson, Miss, Dec. 2O.-The bank
ing year in Mississippi is drawing to
a close, and calls are now being is
sued for the annual meetings of stock
holders and directors to declare divi-
dends and elect officers for the ensu-
ing year.
Statements being filed at the state
auditors office from state banking in
situations setting forth their financial
condition at the close of business on
Dec. 8, indicate that the banks have
earned their usual dividends, despite
short crops and other adverse condi-
tons in some portions of the state.
This is also true of the national
banks, thirty in number, and which
operate chiefly at the larger CONNER
cial centers.
The number of bank failures in Mis-
sissippi this year has been larger than
usual, twelve banks having closed their
doors since the first of January. A
majority of these were small institu-
tons, and, in quite ia number of in
stances, these bank failures have re-
suited in criminal charges being pre-
ferred against their officers. Court
records in the various counties show
eighteen bank officers and directors
under indictment and awaiting trial,
the principal charge being for receiv-
ing deposits when they knew that the
institutions with which they were con-
nected were insolvent.
If the indictments returned are well
founded, very large majority of Mis-
sissippi's bank failures this year have
not been due to bad business, but can
be traced either to acts of embezzle-
ment or criminal carelessness on the
part of their officials.
Three of the failures can be traced
to attempts to operate in territory al
ready well supplied with banking ia
cilities.
Records at the auditors office show
1872 state banks in operation, two hav-
ing suspended since the last report in
October The two failures were at
Meridian and Ovett. Five new state
banks have been chartered within the
past ninety days, and two of this num-
Der are in operation.
That Mississippi is in urgent need
of system Of state bank inspection
is universally admitted by financiers,
many Of whom deeply regret the fail
ure Of the legislature at its last ses-
sion to enact satisfactory statute.
The Simmons-Rencher bill was killed
during the last days of the session, and
a determined effort will be made to
get through similar bill at the ses-
sion one year hence.
A short time since it was proposed
that the state banks inaugurate an in
dependent system OF inspection for
their own protection, each bank to pay
its pro rata share of the expense, but
thus far no effort has been made TO
carry the plan into effect, although
it met with the approval of several
members of the executive committee
of the Mississippi Bankers Associa-
ton.
Practically all of the state banks
will hold their annual meetings of
stockholders and directors during the
last week in December or first week
in January for the purpose Of declar-
ing dividends and arranging plans for
the coming year.

King George, in announcing his
intention of witnessing a football
match, shows himself more favor
able to the game than some of his
predecessors. In 1914 Edward II.
issued a prohibition of football.
"Forasmuch as there is great noise
in the city caused by hustling over
large balls, we command and forbid,
on pain of imprisonment, such
game to be played in the future"
Richard II. prohibited call playing
at football, tennis and other games

stone, kailes and other such impor-
tune games" The same statute was
re-enacted by Henry ~, but all at
