BIG REDUCTION
PRICE ON FORDS
his POPULAR AUTOMOBILE AN
NoUNcEs SUBSTANTIAL CUT
TOMORROW.

A reduction in the substantial sum
of $50 on the Ford popular automo-
biles is the announcement made this
morning at the local agency by Fry
Brothers. This reduction will be-
come effective tomorrow. It means
that after tomorrow the two passen-
ger Ford car, one of the most popular
ever on the automobile market, will
be sold for $40. 1t means that the
five passenger Ford car will sell to-
morrow at $500. ...
This is not all. If the company

Used further rebate of some $40 or
$50 on the cars that they may buy
during that time. This would mean
some $12,oo0,000 or s15.000,ooo that
would be returned during the year
ito the buyers of Ford automobiles.
1t is not improbable that the buy
ers will get the benefit of this rebate
as there were sold during the past
year of this popular car not less than
|221,0 900. 1t is confidently expected
that during the year 1000 cars of this
type will be sold during every day.
Fry Brothers have had a splendid
trade during the past year. but they
are very optimistic over the outlook
for the coming year and believe that
they will sell almost twice as many
in this territory in the twelve months
to come as they did during the past
year.

COUNTRY PREPARED
FOR ANY STRAIN ON
FINANCIAL SYSTEM
LEADING BANKER TAKES OPTi-
MYSTIC VIEW OF THE SIT.
UATION.
PLENTY CURRENCY and GOLD
Secretary of the Treasury Shows
That We Have Twice as Much of
the Precious Metal as Any Other
Nation In the World.

What of the financial situation ?
Why it could not be stronger" This
was the answer given a representa-
tive of The Herald this morning by
Col. Jos. F. Brownlow, cashier of the
Maury National Bank and one of the
best known bankers in the state.
There is absolutely no occasion
for alarm because of the war situa.
ton in Europe. Our finances in this
country were never in better shape
to stand drain than they are at this
time. Secretary McAdoo, of the ma
tional treasury department, says that
We have fifteen hundred millions in
gold, which is twice the stock of any
ther nation upon the face of the
earth. The government stands ready
to issue at once $500,OO0,OO0 in addi-
tional currency under the provisions
of the Aldrich-Vreeland bill as amend
ed by the recent currency act.
I'm order to be ready for any posi-
BILE emergency congress will today by
another amendment still further sim.
plify the issuance of the currency
under the act mentioned. Never
ince this government was organic
ed have we been in such a splendid
condition to Withstand any strain
that there may be on our financial
system.
There will be no money stringen-
cy; that is absolutely certain. The
secretary of the treasury stands
ready, on a moments notice, to de-
post large sums of money in the
banks of the country wherever it is
needed. War in Europe will be ter
rible catastrophe, something that all
of us would avoid If we could, but it
will not affect business in this coun-
try. 1t will absolutely give no cause
for alarm here in business way. On
the contrary it will create an addi-
tional demand for everything that we
have"
Col Brownlow's optimism is shar-
ed by every banker and the leading
business men, not only of Columbia,
but of the entire country. No alarm
is felt over the financial situation in
any of the money centers of the land.
