SHOOTING AT MALLORY.
Mail Carrier Bounds Wounded by His
Substitute, Parham.

Mallory, Dec. ga serious shoot
ing affray occurred here late Christ
mas Eve night. Marion II. Bounds,
rural carrier on Route /, was shot by
Vernon Parham, substitute carrier on
the same route. Both men were drink
ing, it is said, and it is alleged that
Bounds began the shooting, but hit
no one. Parham it seems, fired three
shots, two taking effect in the hip and
one penetrating the abdomen, MAX
ing a serious and perhaps fatal wound.
Ut. r. l.. Carpenter, of Latta, was
called and dressed the wounds, and
on Christmas morning the wounded
man was taken to his home, near
here. still suffering very much. The
physician says there is no great cause
for alarm, but that the wounds are
necessarily painful and serious.
This is the second man shot by Par
ham in the last few weeks, the other
one being negro. who is still suf-
fering with a wound, though able to
be out.
Rural Policeman Paysinger placed
Parham under arrest, but allowed him
to carry the mail as substitute. after
wards going to Latta to remain in
custody of an officer to await develop
ments. The prominence Of all con-
cerned adds considerable interest 20
the affair.

STATE CHARTERS UNCHANGED.
BANKS IN FEDERAL RESERVE
SYSTEM MAY RETAIN SAME
STATE CHARTERS.
Entirely Within Directors Authority
To Enter New Systcm--Can Consult
stockholders In Becoming Reserve
Members.

Washington. Dec. 30.-Banks that
enter the federal reserve system do
not need to take out new charters,
both State and national banks become
members by making proper applica-
tion and by Pecorning stockholders in
federal reserve banks, according to a
regulation issued tonight by the re-
serve bank organization committee.
In its announcement the committee
also declared that action by a board of
directors b sufficient to bring a bank
into the new system. but advised that
banks that wish to be on the safe side
sound out their stockholders.
The regulation reads:
THE federal reserve act provides
for membership Of banks operating
under State charters as well as mem
bership Of national banks. No new
charter Is contemplated in either case.
Eligible banks become members by
becoming stockholders in federal re-
serve banks. when their applications
have been properly approved and
stock has been allotted to them. Such
subscription to the capital stock OF
the federal reserve bank appears to
be a matter within the province of
the hoard Of directors Of the sub
scribing bank. The organization com
mittee therefore deems 1t unnecessary
to require as q condition precedent to
membership that the stockholders
should take any formal action.
"Inasmucb. however. as stockhold-
ers of bank have legal right, by
necessary vote, to force solvent banl,
to liquidate, and IL dissatisfied with
the action OF tho board in becoming
members might exercise this preroga
tive. banks desiring to take the pre-.
.cautionary measures OF canvassing the
sentiment Of the stockholders may,
by resolution Of their boards, submit
the question to stockholders either at
the next regular meeting or at Il spe-
cially called meeting. This course.
however. Is not insisted on by the Or
ganization committee.
Those national banks passing res
olutions OF nonacceptance on or be-
fore February %. 1914, should, as
soon thereafter as convenient and be-
fore the expiration of the IL months
prescribed in the federal reserve act,
submit their action to the stockhold-
ers for confirmation. since nonac-
ceptancc of the provisions of the fed
eral reserve act ultimately will in
volve the liquidation of such national
bank"
