DECISION WILL Be
MADE PUBLIC TODAY
Continued From First Page1

The announcement. signed by the
secretary of the commission, was
posted at the general offices and it was
said it would stand for the day. An
ticipating attempts to forecast the de-
cision, officials said any reports pur-
porting to give the commissions con-
illusions in the noted case would be
wholly unauthorized and speculative.
The decision. affecting seventy-two
railroad systems east of the Mississippi
and north of the Potomac and Ohio
rivers. in what is designated official
classification territory, has been under
consideration several months.
The railroads have asked the in
crease solely on the ground that their
revenues have become insufficient to
meet the increasing cost of wages and
tn" other expenses. Opposition to the
increase has been conducted on the
ground that the railroads would have
sufficient revenue without increasing
charges to the public by conserving
their revenue with greater efficiency
and eliminating free services to large
shippers.

81 And an important feature about the
certificates issued by us, is that they
bear no date of maturity. That re-
lieves the holder Of the necessity of re-
newing every four months in order to
keep them interest bearing.
81 Once we issue a certificate of de-
post, it makes no difference whether it
Is presented at the end of four months
from date of issue, or ten years there
after. 1t will draw interest to the
date on which it is presented for re-
demptlon.
81 And just remember that the certi6-
cate OF deposit, is not adapted %exclus-
lively to the needs Of the small investor.
Business men, firms and corporations
which carry goodly bank balances, will
find it profitable to use the certificate
OF deposit as a temporary form of In
vestment. Funds so invested are always
available In case unforeseen conditions
they gather interest as long as
they remain undisturbed, provided, of
course, the period Of investment is four
months OF more.
u If you have a surplus fund, large or
small, which isn't working for you, re-
CARELESS of whether you may want it in
SIX months or not for SIX years, invest
it in our certificates of deposit, and
make it work for you until you require
Its use.

Man Arrested on Charge
of Assault Will Fight

David Geibe. Harrisburg, one of
the two men who were held for trial
at September quarter sessions for ag-
gravated assault and battery upon
Pennsylvania Railroad Officer Adam
Soulliard, Middletown, declared to-
day that he means to fight the case
bitterly in the courts.
Geibe' was held Monday evening
following a hearing before Squire
kennard, Middletown. Testimony was
offered to the effect that Geibe's wife
had taken him away from the mob
that attacked Soulliard but tina he
had broken away from here and had
gone back into the crowd to resume
the scrap. Geibe denies this. II did
not GO back into the crowd: my wife
and | walked down toward the river
to the home of Mrs. Geibe's sister,"
declared Geibe to-day.

You and Your Money

q IF you have red bloodAowing through
your system, you want to succeed.
And your success depends upon some
thing more than working all the time
for money. After you get it, you
must make your money work all the
time for you.
G 1t doesn't make any difference
whether after paying fixed expenses the
amount left from your earnings be five
dollars, or ten dollars or a hundred dol
lars So make it work as hard for you as
you did for it.
G That leads to the subject of invest
ments.
'G You can find many forms Of invest
ments, not a few of which have their
drawbacks as we'll as their advantages.
For example, some may require more
money than you are in a position to
invest. Some may not be convertible
at a moments notice into the amount
of cash laid out for them.
q But there is a form that fits the re-
quirements Of everyone who seeks a
safe, pro6t-yielding investment. 1t is
the Certificate of Deposit convertible
at any time into cash, without loss.
G Certificates of deposit are issued by
this bank for any desired amount, and
bear interest every four months at the
rate Of 900 per annum.
