reserves in New York
And It is my Judgment that. the
bank which does not avail Itself Of the
benefits of the banking and currency
law will find it more and more difficult
to maintain list of depositors against
a bank which is member,
AT one time during the progress of
the legislation I feared that a move
ment might be made TO put the State
of Georgia into a reserve district with
New Orleans as Its center.
Entitled to District.
II felt that this would be Injurious
that the number of reserve districts
should be changed from q fixed number
of eight to not less than eight nor more
than twelve.
logically entitled to a reserve district.
I have pressed that view in the Demo-
cratic caucus and upon the members OF
the organization committee.
One of the arguments which I have
presented was that in the center of our
(which Heads all ther South in postal re.
ceipts; which led all the South in 1912
in the erection Of new buildings. which
is second only to New Orleans and bare
ly behind her in clearing house receipts;
and the growth of which in banking
capital and bank deposits has exceeded
during the past ten years any city In
the South.
Il have been gratlfed to see that bank
ing experts in New York, Boston and
Washington have nearly all agreed that
the Southeastern section should con-
tribute one of the reserve districts and
that a reserve bank for the district
should be located at Atlanta.
IA reserve bank will in all proba bill
ity be located at Boston, one in New
York and one somewhere between New
York and Atlanta. A reserve bank will
naturally be located in Chicago. St
Louis and San Francisco.
Beyond this l am not able to give an
indication.
Advantages Over Central Bank.
There are those who have insisted
that we should have but one central
bank In working out this act we have
believed that there were advantages in
avoiding the concentration of only one
bank We were convinced that the di-
vision of the country into districts would
give to the different Federal reserve
banks more complete recognition of To-
cal conditions and free our currency
from the control by localities at a dis
lance.
at the same time we have adopted
a system of general control of the diff
ferent reserve banks through the Fed
eral Reserve Board which will bring to
the system as a whole all of the adj
vantages of central bank, while pre-
serving the advantage OF localiZation OF
the different reserve boards.
81 have used the opportunity to pre-
sent our section, with its wonderful re-
sources and its marvellous progress, to
those who are now engaged in studying
the different portions of our country,
and / have found that II was necessary
for me to arouse their imaginations to
make them comprehend how we are
growing and what we are capable Of
doing.
IT have the utmost confidence in the
future of our section. We have greater
natural advantages than any other sec
ton of the Union, and this means of
the world.
while we invite the good men OF the
balance of our country to come and
settle among us, II necessary our own
people have the enterprise and force
to build this section"

SOUTHEAST ENTITLED TO RESERVE BANK SAYS HOKE SM
of Nev Freedom People Under

Joined in the protest, and as re-
suit the bill was amended.
Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia,
said before leaving for Atlanta to ad-
dress the Georgia bankers
You have already quoted In the
Hearst papers the figures to prove
Atlanta's financial and commercial
pre- eminence in the Southeast.
"Geogra phically, her position Is also
ideal. | think it is fair proposition
that 300 miles Is a sufficient distance
for any man to be compelled to travel
to transact necessary business. That
is an average overnight trip. Well,
just draw a circle around that sec
ton of the country which radiates 800
miles from Atlanta. and you will see
the substantial merit of Atlanta's
claims
"There Is not a big concern in the
United States doing business in the
South which hasn't headquarters in
Atlanta. 1t is the South's great rail-
road center"
Bacon Aids Movement.
Senator Augustus O. Bacon, chair
man of the important Committee on
Foreign Relations. echoed the views
of Senator Smith.
81 don't see how Atlanta can be ig-
nored," he said.
Congressman Adamson, chairman
of'the House Committee on Interstate
and Foreign Commerce, said:
ATLANTA has pfe-eminent claims
upon one of the banks"
Congressman Hardwick. chairman
of the House Committee on Coinage,
Weights and Measures, said:
The strategic position Of Atlanta
recommends her. Beginning with
the Carolinas, Florida, Alabama,
Tennessee - a territory which will
compare favorably with any similar
territory, both in banking resources
and Industrial development. and in
need of one OF these banks-all do
business with Atlanta. Atlanta is the
Capital of the Southeast, ana the es-
Establishment Of regional bank there
would least disturb the existing chan
nels of trade"
Congressman Howard said:
Atlanta is the clearing point for
Chattanooga, Memphis Birmingham,
Montgomery, Macon, Augusta, Florida
and other places"
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1914-01-20

instead of trying to restrict the coun-
try banks OF Georgia, the New York
bankers have Invariably told them
when a tight situation arose to go
ahead and meet the situation with
proper loans and that they (the New
York banks) would take care of them
That's the theme of many converse
lions 1 have had with the country
bankers of Georgia"
So the national reserve members
ended their meeting with the kindl-
est feelings toward the New York and
Eastern banks, and then adjourned to
the Capital City Club for the big re-
gional bank luncheon at 1890 O'Clock.
The following new members were
added to the list Of 26 banks already
members of the State association:
Now Banks Added.
First National Bank OF Winder;
Fulton National Bank, Atlanta; First
National Bank, Chattanooga; Manu-
facturers National Bank, Newman;
First National Bank, Elberton; First
National Bank, Hampton; Farmers
National Bank, Monticello; Gaines
vile National Bank, Gainesville;
First National Bank, Waycross; Daw-
son National Bank, Dawson; First
National Bank, Shellman, and the Cit
liens National Bank, Washington.
The constitution of the association
makes 1t possible for banks in adtoin-
Ing States to become members, ard
1t was under that provision that the
Chattanooga bank came in.

Commerce, In addition to adding a
dozen new members to Its list Of 26,
was the occasion for a remarkable
statement by J. II. Reynolds, presl-
dent of the First National Bank of
Rome, In comrlendation of the treat
ment by New York bankers Of their
country bank correspondents In
Georgia.
Mr.. Reynolds said that Norman
Hapgood, the editor, had made the
statement that when the New York
and Eastern bankers wanted some
thing done by Congress, and when
things weren't going to please them
in Washington, they put the screws
on the country banks, telling them
they must stop lending money"
Mr.. Hapgood stated that the coun-
try banks were forced to do as they
were told" Mr.. Reynolds went on,
and said that the result was soon
felt In Washington
Reynolds Scores Hapgood.
Now" Mr.. Reynolds went on, Il
never had heard of anything Of the
kind No New York bank ever has
nut the screws on me or told me
not to lend money, or tried to regulate
me in any way. So ! decided that
either l was too Insignificant to gain
the attention of the big banks or that
Mr. Hapgood was mistaken.
81 wrote him a letter about 1t, and
he lodged the question. Then called
on him for proofs, feeling that the
New York bankers, who always had
stood to me like the best Of friends,
were being slandered. I didn't get
any proofs.
Then I wrote n letter, which was
published in Atlanta, requesting any
banker in Georgia or In the South
who had been coerced or threatened,
or had received any request from any
New York bank regarding the lend
| Ing of money, to write to me. / didn't
get a single reply"
Then Mr.. Reynolds addressed the
meeting.
Question Brings No Answer.
IT want to ask you gentlemen II
any New York or Eastern bank ever
requested you to stop lending money?
There was no reply. Il guess it's
unanimous" said Mr., Reynolds.
Then Colonel Robert J. Lowry said
that there were patriots In New
York as we'll as patriots in Georgia
I'VE owe the New York bankers q
great debt OF gratitude" he added
for they never have declined to make
| loans to Georgia bankers, or Other
| country bankers, that / know Of"
Joseph A. McCord added another
tribute.
"I will Just say" he remarked. that

IF you have noticed" said Mr.
Orr, "at every hearing the commit
tee has held so far, Atlanta's right
to one of the regional banks has been
conceded in the most impartial way
by gentlemen appearing in behalf of
other cities.
Logically, you see, the mind re
'verts to Atlanta, and however a bust
ness man may be impelled to favor
his own community, he includes At
lanta And this, bear in mind, comes
before the claims OF Atlanta have
been formally presented. 1t is based
entirely upon common knowledge as
to the financial, commercial and In
dustrial leadership of Atlanta in the
important Southeast"
Amendment Favors Atlanta.
One especially interesting fact in
connection with the claims of Atlanta
which the correspondent Of the
Hearst newspapers learned was that
the amendment to the Financial bill
providing for q maximum of twelve
regional banks was inserted in the
Senate in order to provide for recog
milton of that section of the South
of which Atlanta is the center. When
the bill was taken up for considera-
ton by the Senate Democratic eau
Gus 1t provided for but four regional
banks. Senator Hoke Smith, Of
Georgia, at once voiced a protest
''The point is right here; Logically
enough, II but four regional banks
are. provided for, New York, Chicago,
Boston or st. Louis, and San Fran
cisco VIII be the cities selected. That
will leave the city Of Atlanta en-
tirely out of consideration, and the
great section of the nation which it
, represents"
Senators Join Protest.

for any measure which did not conf
tain provision which would give At
lanta consideration. Senators Lee, of

MONKEY BARBER

Did you ever hear of, much less see
monkey barber shop? Yes, that's it
exactly A monkey barber shop, con
Quoted entirely by monkeys, will
monkey customers, monkey boot
blacks, monkey BARRIERS and monkey
shavers and sinners.
OF course you haven't, but that's nc
sign that yoz are never going to. This
is fast and progressive age, remem.
Der, and almost anything is liable to
happen these days. In fact, it has al
ready happened.
On Friday, October 2, the famous
Gentry shows are coming to Chicka-
sha and on that date you are going
to have chance to see the monkey
barber shop-the Simian tonsorial par
lors-so to speak-in full swing and
operation. And the press agent vows
that you will fall off your seat, split
your sides, burst a rib and all the rest
Of it, from laughing at those 'ibloomin
monkeys
While the Gentry trainers are re-
cognized as the leading exponents of
animal training in America they had
to admit, according to the press agent,
that Prof. Roy Rush, German animal
teacher, has gone them one better
when he trained the monkeys as bar
Ders- Prof. Rush is the man who did
the training, and the act, as it is des-
ignated for descriptive purposes, is
said to be the biggest novelty ever in
troduced in America.
Prof. Rush was offered an enormous
salary by the Western Vaudeville Man
ayers association to feature the act
Oh the big vaudeville circuits, but Gen
try Bros. went them one better and

and seen only, this season with the

when both farmers and fanciers have
money to buy birds and many fine

the million dollar industry possible.
Secretary w. II. Stratton saws.
"From the increased list of entries
received for the State Fair Poultry
Show this year, the biggest display
OF fine chickens ducks, turkeys and

the display in general this year will
be unequalled both in quality and
