DECISION SERIES
OF SERMONS STARTS

Rev. Hugh Mcclellan, pastor Of the
Elrst Christian church, of San Antonio.
Tex, began last evening a series Of
decision services at the First Chris
tian church of this city. His first ser
mon was from the text: Work out
your own salvation with fear and
trembling; for it is God who wOrketh
IN you both to will and to work for
mis- good pleasure" (Phil. ii:12 and Is
In beginning, the speaker said:
There are some texts which I think
of as like a rifle bullet They hit a
single point. There are others that are
like a shotgun she'll, which when dis
charged. scatters and hits a number
of points. Ny text is like the latter.
It cOrrects three of four false concep-
tons of salvation, and presents as well
pretty comprehensive idea Of the
manner in which salvation is secured.
The theory that salvation is wholly
of God cannot be true if the text is to
be followed. No more is it true that
salvation is wholly of man. Moreover,
It IS not matter of the emotions alone
It requires the cooperation Of man and
Coo, and 1t requires work and time"
Inc sermon made a very fine i'm
preston on the audience and there is
dersOn and Mrs. J. L. Lehman. The
church choir led the song service and a
duet was rendered by Miss Eunice An
derson and Mrs J. L. Lehman The
services VIII continue each evening
through the remainder of the week
The hour of beginning is AS.

Senate Committee IncorpOr-

Vote of Z to ).

Washington, D. c., Nov 6-The stock
of the regional banks of the new cur
rency system will be owned by the
public and regional banks will be con-
trOled by the government. The senate
banking committee today Incorporated
that feature in the administration cur

Compromise With White House.
Senators Reed and Hitchcock, Demo-
Gratis, joined the five Republicans Vot-
ing for the resolution over the pro-
tests of senators Owens, POmerene,
ShafrOth. Hollis and O'GOrman, the re-
manning Democrats Jointly framed by
senators Reed, Hitchcock and weeks,
the resolution was regarded by some
q the basis of a compromise between
the white House and the senators in
control on the committee.
Control of the regional banks was
settled by a compromise resolution Of
fered by senator Weeks, providing that
each regional bank have nine directors,
five to be selected by the government
federal reserve board and four by the
banks Under the house Dill six OF the
nine would be chosen by the banks

The action today is thought to have
cleared the way for an agreement IN
the committee and may hasten prog
ress OF the bill.
President Wilson has been conduct
ing informal conferences with Demo
cratic senators over the currency stu

conference, not necessarily in the sense
of a caucus, but as a movement 10

wants it shaped.
New Feature Added.
An entirely new feature was tenta-
lively written into the administration
currency bill controversy by the SEN
ate currency committee after a full
day of heated wrangle- The new plan
was characterized by chairman owen,
chief administration supporter on the
committee, "as equivalent to a central
bank" He said the committee ad-
journed with the matter "up in the
air"
The new scheme would provide for
the Capitalization of One-half of the
reserves to be held by the regional
banks in the proposed new system.
This proportion would be placed un-
der the complete control of the federal
reserve board and would be located in
Washington, to be administered for
the aid and convenience Of the entire
banking system. AS finally voted up
on, the proposal was modification OF
a plan proposed by senator Reed, OF
Missouri who suggested it as a means
of composing the wide differences
among the members of the committee

Tonight every 1912 poll tax payer,
who is also property tax payer, should
be IN possession of the ballots "fOrA
and against" the proposed Joint NUM-
eipal building, according to county Judge
A. S. j. Eylar, who supervised sending
out the ballots.
In preparing the addresses to which
the ballots were mailed the tax lists
were taken to the county assessors
office and there checked as to these who
were also property tax payers. The
reason for this is that all voters on bond
issues should this method be decided
on-must be property tax payers as well
as voters.
~The list of those to whom the bal
lots were mailed was carefully pre-
pared" said judge Eylar. ''Neverthe-
less, it is possible that a few names may
have been overlooked. and if any prop
erty tax payer, who also has a poll tax,
