soon learned that the report had found
alton in fact, as the information came
from officials of the bank, who stated
that shortage had been discovered as
reported. but that it had been made

The news of the shortage caused
great surprise and was the talk OF town
all day.

complete the investigation and prepare
an Official statement for publication. 1t

be ready for publication yesterday

A Cool Million For Changes Alone

That is amount being spent by Dodge
Bros, in getting ready to Man lfacture
new Motor Cars.
Business depression in general seems
20 have had little effect on the motor
car industry during the past year. Man.
ufacJurers almost universally report
the biggest year in their histories.
Expansion has been general.
It has remained for Dodge Brothers,
Detroit manufacturing firm, to take
the lead in this direction. This con
cern is spending a full million dollars
on additions and Improvements to its
already enormous works.
For twelve years Dodge Brothers
have been known to the motor car
trade as large manufactures OF parts.
During that period, they have made
the vital parts for half million cars.
Now they have announced their in
tention OF abandoning their former
line of work and of making motor car
of their own name. The first step was
10 erect an assembling building nearly
1000 feet in length at a cost OF S400. 600.
A punch press building is about to be
built. The administration building
will be greatly enlarged, and changes
will be made in certain parts OF the
present works.
1t is generally conceded that the car
Dodge Brothers will shortly place on
the market will establish an entirely
new standard of automobile values. 1t
will be handled locally by Sumter Mo
tor Co.

Southern States.
New York, Sept. 2S The American
Tobacco Company is to lend its power
full support to making the 'buy-a-bale-
of-cotton'' idea a success The plan
evolved by the Tobacco Company will
greatly help the cotton situation in the
South, while at the same time stimu

cival S. Hill, President of The Ameri-
can Tobacco Company, makes the fol.
lowing offer: 1--WE will purchase, at
10c. pound, as many pounds OF good
middling cotton from each OF our Gus

the aggregate number OF pounds OF
Red J. and PENIS Natural Leaf plug

Mr.. Hill gave out the following state
ment: "It is our plan to render uniform

CONFERENCE BROUGHT
To CLOSE BY BLESSING
OF PRESIDENT SMITH
Eiehty-fourth Session Regarded as Most
Promising in History of the
Mormon Church

Salt Lake, April AFTER every
one of the general authorities Of the
church had been sustained by unani.
nous vote, the last session of the
eighty.fourth annual conference of
the Mormon church closed yesterday
afternoon. The many visitors have
departed or soon will depart for their
homes, with the blessing of their
president, who has attended every
session of the conference and with
the assurance that the conference
just closed is the best and most prom
Using in the history Of the church.
Just before the close of the con.
ference, Joseph F. Smith, president
of the church, gave parting bless
ing to the members as follows:
feel quite certain and sure that
the spirit and feeling and earnest de-
sires which have been made manifest
during the meetings Of this confer
ence are all pleasing and acceptable
to the Lord. l am satisfied that He
has approved the counsels that have
been given, and the admonitions that
have been offered to the people Of the
Lord; and in conclusion desire sim
ply to say: God bless all Israel, and
may the Lord especially bless those
on whom rest the responsibility OF
presiding in the various organiza.
tons OF the church and especially
those on whom rests the very great
responsibility of presiding over the
various high councils Of the sixty-hve
stakes of Zion, all the bishops and
their counselors in the 724 wards or
ganized in the church, as well as
those who are presiding over the va
rious branches of the church and
over all the missions In the world.
The Lord bless them; give them wis
dom, judgment, discernment, purity
of heart, and power of government
and of counsel, that they may be po-
tent in the guiding of the church in
which they are concerned and over
which they are called to preside. The

Lord bless our auxiliary organizations
and those who stand as presidents
and directors in them, that they may
also accomplish very much In the di.
rection of their labors for the good
of the youth of Zion and OF the chill
dren OF the Saints. God bless you,
my brethren and sisters. ask it in
the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
President Presides
The afternoon services were open
ed by the congregation singing, Re-
deemer of Israel, Our Only Delight,
after which William II. Richards,
president OF Malad stake, led in the
opening prayer. A solo, Within This
Sacred Dwelling, was sung by A. L.
Newberg.
Rulon s. Wells
Rulon S. Wells Of the first seven
presidents of seventies was the first
speaker. He told of the duties Of the
members and urged them to strive
to live up to the standards set by
the church. We should do our best,
declared the speaker, and should
work to live up to the standards of
religion, although / do not agree that
we should not preach Of an ideal be-
cause we do not reach it.
Sin should be regarded as sickness
and we should try to overcome it as
we do to overcome sickness. But we
should not loathe the afflicted In ell
Their case. We loathe the disease,
but not the sick person, and so should
we despise the sin, but not the one
who sins. He is to be pitied.
Joseph w. McMurrin, also of the
first seven presidents of seventies, de-
voted his time chiefly to an appeal
for greater effort on the part OF the
home workers. It is all right, he urg'
ed, to send missionaries to foreign
lands. That work is necessary and
I am glad that 1t is being done. But
we who are here at home should put
forth greater energy in carrying the
gospel to those who have come among
