The National Bank of Washington Is
now involved in negotiations with the
Lincoln National, looking toward a con-
solidation of the two institutions, with
a retention Of both boards, but the elec-
ton of a new president to succeed Clar-
ence F. Norment, according to reports
practically admitted by officials of the
should the deal go through, would have
a capital of s1,350,000, with deposits Of
about s4,500,000.
II is said that the addition of the saw
ings department of the Lincoln National
has held that institution in a strong po-
siion, but that both banks would really
benefit materially, in increased earnings,
if, by a merger, their expenses could be
decreased. The many new banks in this
city have proved a burden to older in
stitutions. 1t is thought that with an
aggressive head, the two banks men-
toned, combined, would be factor in
the banking circles of the District to be
reckoned with. the National Bank OF
Washington absorbed the Central Ma
ticnal Bank in 1907, and has been seek
ing to expand again by tn esame route
for some time.
The local stock exchange was a close
imitation Of the North Pole this after
noon, and most of the traders and
brokers sat about with their overcoats
admitted at the close that he hurried
proceedings because he did not want to
freeze today, because he is planning an
enjoyable trip.
The cause of the trouble was James
n. Green, the well-known cold air and
water fiend. Mr.. Green opened a large
window, and sat with his back to it,
smiling. He expected some one to ask
him to close 1t, but no one did.

tion which was given for the pur-
pose OF higher education by the
State, but it also has $4,000 given
by the late Montgomery Bell for
lower education in connection with
some higher institution.
Ii Montgomery Bell Academy is
to be kept in isolation the trustees
will be violating the will of Mont
gomery Bell. If the University of
Nashville money is to be diverted
for the uses of Montgomery Bell
Academy, the trustees will in that
event be misapplying funds de-
rived from and virtually belonging
to the State of Tennessee.
So far the trustee of the Univer-
sity Of Nashville have shown no
signs of complying with the request
of the General Assembly. Doubt
less they will soon see the reason
ableness and the desirability OF
coming to the rescue of George
Peabody College for Teachers
This is matter of public policy,
vitally, important to all citizens OF
the State who have children to be
educated. Tohinder Peabody Col
lege now would be to cripple an en-
/ terprise so important to which the
State and citizens of Tennessee
have already given over S7OO,OOO.
Surely the trustees of the Univer-
sity of Nashville will not now fail
to cooperate with citizens of the
State in making doubly effective
the 100000 already given. This
can be done if the trustees OF the
University of Nashville will con.
vey their property and thus enable
Peabody College to get an addi'
tional ST, 100000 to round out the
ST., 100000 already in hand anc
bring the total assets of the college
up to S3,200,O00, which will assure
the success of the institution an(
make it one to be proud of,
It is inconceivable that the trus
tees of the University of Nashville
will miss this opportunity to do
public service. Nor is it possibl,
, to think for moment that the,
will put themselves in the attitude

ihc lenneSsee Ienefnl Assem-
bly,, to protect the interests of its
schools, recently passed bill un-
der which it will be legal for the
trustees of the University of Nash
vile to convey their property to
the George Peabody College for
Teachers.
The General Assembly has en-
phasized this enactment by adopt
ing the following Joint resolution,
which tells in very pointed words
the disaster which is facing this
important Tennessee school and
shows how relief can be quickly
and appropriately given if the de-
sired action is taken by the trus-
tees of the University of Nashville.
The joint resolution adopted by
the General Assembly is here
quoted in full.
Whereas, it is a matter of deep
concern to the people of Tennessee
that the George Peabody College
for Teachers be established on a
substantial financial basis, and that
it successfully perform its mission
in the field of education in Ten
nessee and in the other Southern
States; and
Whereas, to the original endow-
ment of $1,000,OO0 contributed by
the trustees of the Peabody educa-
ton fund of New York, $25O,OOC
by the State of Tennessee, $780,
900 by the city of Nashville and
100000 by Davidson County
there has been subscribed condi.
tionally an additional $5OO,OOO by
the said trustees of the Peabody
education fund of New York anc
SSOO,OO0 by divers other persons
the conditions being that total o1
S1,5OO,OO0 be raised by the frs
day of November, 1918; and
Whereas, the required amoun
is short 100000 and it now seems
probable that the officers and trus
tees of the George Peabody Col
lege for Teachers will not be able
to secure that amount and that th'
whole of the subscriptions obtained
amounting to Sl,300,0o0 will b'
forfeited and lost to the colleg'
and to education in Tennessee ant
in the whole South; and
Whereas, the University o
Nashville has in it's possession
property and funds amounting tt
about 100000, which were in
trusted to it by the State of Nortl
Carolina and'the State OF Iennes
see for the purpose OF promoting
higher education and said lnstltu
t;on has ceased operation and
without site, having conveyed 1t
grounds, buildings, library, ETC., t
the said George Peabody Colleg
for Teachers; now, therefore, be
Resolved, by the Senate an
House of Representatives OF tn
State Of Tennessee, that, to the en-
That the conditional subscription
70 the George Peabody Colleg
for Teachers may be saved and nc
Lost and that the said college ma
