.UNTERMYER SEES
MONEY ACT FLAW

WASHINGTON, Sent. 22.-The ad-
ministrauon currency bin is too gen
erous TO banks in freeing them from
competition and giving them repre-
sentatiOn on regional reserve boards,
according to Samuel Untermyer,
who appeared before the Senate
Banking and Currency Committee to-
day
The bill Is so generous" said MT
Untermyer AS to destroy the abil-
ity Of the reserve bank or the Gov
eminent to control the rate OF dis
count. The Government can not go
into the market to buy domestic bills
to control the rate Of discount under
this measure. II can buy only from
and through banks"
Mr. Dntermyer said he appeared
as an unqualified champion of the
fundamental principle of the bin
which he understood To be the issu-
anCe of an asset currency by the
Government as a Government obu-
cation and under the control Of the
Government.

COLD WAVE NEAR

Atlantans Hurry to Get Fall Ap-
pareI as the Mercury Falls
to Forty-fve Degrees.

With the mercury dropping to with
in two degrees of its lowest mark for
September q, and Monday morning
breaking clear but with little rise in
temperature, Atlanta is declared to be
on the portals Of winter weather and
merchants are preparing for the
greatest fall business ever known in
this city.
Out of the stagnation of summer,
the crisp weather already has brought
considerable activity i'm business cir
Cles. High prices which cotton is
bringing promise great things for the
fall trade.
Openings of fall stuffs by Peachtree
and Whitehall street merchants dis
play probably the most elaborate and
expensive arrays of goods ever seen
In this city Only the cold weat Their
which has now arrived was needed
to put life into the heretofore para
lyzed trade centers.
The cold wave was uniform
throughout the State Of Georgia. In
Atlanta the mercury dropped to As
degrees. Gainesville and Columbus
broke their records with TEN peratures
Of 81 and 46, respectively, while Rome
showed a drop to 40, which equaled
It's record for that date. Augusta
temperature registered 46 degrees.
In no place, however, was there an
official report of frost.
ATLANTA now is to be blessed with
the Indian summer, the prettiest
weather Of the year." said Weather

With cotton bringing from II TO a

prosperity for farmers and merchants
Of this state Is forecast this fall and
winter. Reports from over the State
also indicate that larger crops Of
grains and food supplies have been
grown this year than IN past seasons

Georgia ports and interior markets
is well under way and ginneries are
running on fun time.
Atlanta banks have received the
81 1000, 900 allotted them by the United
States Treasury TO aid in moving the
cotton crop.
The cash is being used to supply
country banks with the currency
needed for cotton marketing.
It is estimated that when cotton is
moving actively 81 900. 900 always is

into the market to purchase cotton

active market require about 100000

fourth day the first days transac-
tons are rounded out. but, on the
other hand. a new days business is
added, keeping the total the same.

the tax gatherer to locate-it is the
big and opulent property owner who

and some in satins, and some in ging-
ham gowns, but all with a we'll de-

inserted in The Sunday American.
