publican national committee asking per mission for the suffragists to appear be- fore that body when it meets in Wash ington week later, December II.
 Her letter to William F. McCombs reads in part as follows:
 More than 100000 voters on Novem- Der voted in favor of woman suffrage. That means that more than 100000 voters have, by their own act, acquired probably a deeper interest in woman suf- frage than perhaps they had before. They sympathize with the check put upon us, as they have never done before, and for most of them, as for all of us, the question of woman suffrage has ceased to be remote and academic; it has become political.
 For this reason--because we have more than 100000 men behind us in the conservative east and S,000000 men and women voters in the west-the executive hoard of the National American Woman Suffrage association is especially desir- ous that the democratic party, at it's na- tional convention, shall give the national association special opportunity to discuss the political aspects of woman suffrage. We should like to have a. discussion con fined to one point and one point only the justice. propriety and political de- stability of a plank in the democratic platform declaring in favor of woman suffrage.
 k And that there may be no misunder- standings, we should be glad to discuss the details of such a hearing with your committee at your meeting in Washing ton on December T. if you can give us a very brief share of your time"
 pr. Shaw sent a similar letter to Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the re- publican committee. The only difference in phraseology. aside from the differ ence in party labels was a reference to the fact that eff it Is agreeable to your committed we can present as our spolkes- man the daughter of a former dis tlnguished chairman of your committee, Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick"
 Dr. Shaws letter was sent in fulfill ment of the decision reached by the Chi oago conference that the national asso- citation should make the greatest efforts next year to secure the insertion of suf- frage blanks in the platforms of both re- publican and democratic parties.

Alabama suffragists will be interested to read the following resolutions in which they heartily concur. The resolutions were recently passed by the directors of the campaigns in New York, New Jersey. Pennsylvania and Massachusetts:
 Whereas, Under the leadership and en- coura cement of the National American Woman Suffrage association, Il states have won full suffrage, many states have won partial suffrage, and organiza- tions have been formed and maintained in nearly every state, and
 Whereas, The experiences of the past year have deepened our conviction that state work and federal work go hand in hand and are mutually necessary. there fore be it
 Resolved, That we, the representatives of the state organizations of the four campaign states of 1915, wish to express our appreciation Of the steadfast SUD- port of the National American Woman Suffrage association and to reaffirn, our loyalty to the state work of that organi- zayion, and further be it
 Resolved, That we hold ourselves ready to support the National American Woman Suffrage association in the work of its congressional committee on behalf of the Susan B. Anthony amendment to the federal constitution, which it has been pushing vigorously in Congress for the past 45 years, and which is developing greatly increased strength.
 Dr. Anna Howard Shaw has written to William F. McCombs, chairman of the democratic national committee, asking permission for representatives of the national association to appear before the committee at its meeting in Washington December z, to discuss the possibility of giving the question of woman suffrage "a real, and not a perfunctory hearing at the democratic national convention next spring.

HEFLIN REITERATES PREDICTIONS ON 15-CENT COTTON BY CHRISTI MAS

Roanoke, November 23-(Special. )--Con- gressman J. Thomas Hefiin addressed a large audience of farmers and business men in this place Monday on the cotton situation. He dealt largely in figures, which he had compiled on the subject. He maintained that the next ginners re- port would tell the tale of short crop. which he insisted would not be much above 10O0O,000 bales. He reiterated his well known prediction that cotton would sell for 15 cents per pound by Christmas and 20 cents by next July. and added that if the war closed the price would go to 30 cents maybe higher. MT. Hef1in left for Wedowee. Lineville, and other points in his district. where he will deliver the sama address.
 Rev. w. F. Faust, presiding elder of the Roanoke district. has called a meeting of the preachers, district stewards and lay leaders of this district to be held in Roanoke the 23d inst to apportion the finances among the various charges and to plan for the work of the year During the conference year just closed Roanoke district made net gain in membership of 69o which is more than shown by the report of any other district.

since the increase with these banks began at a much later date than the increase in the deposits reported by the City bank for some years. Furthermore, the S55O,- O00, ,000 approximately, now on deposit in the City bank reflect some very large special deposits, as, for instance, it is the depository named by the syndicate which negotiated the Anglo-French loan Some of these deposits will be with drawn, perhaps speedily, because these funds are utilized almost as spot cash is for the payments of purchases. The money will go out from the City bank and will be redeposited in the various banks not only in New York, but in other parts of the country,

made report which was in an honorable banking sense truly sensational, since the figures showed that the bank was carry ing deposits of almost $500 00O,0O0. This seemed all the more phenomenal because this report was made at a time when general slackening of business was under way.
 It is not quite a quarter of century since this institution began to emerge from the rank which it held in common with several of the banks in New York city, second to the rank then held, as it had long been maintained, by the Chemi- cal National bank. When the institution reported that it's deposits had passed the $1oo,oOoooo bar the incident was often quoted as showing how rapidly the Amer iean banks were adjusting themselves to new situations and to the modern phases of industrial and commercial life.
 There was another phase associated with the report that the bank had se- cured $100O00,000 in deposits. For the magnitude of these deposits was regarded as an argument or monition which re- Heeted an apprehension that there was being established in the United States money trust whose existence was d peril to business, possibly to the foundation of the government itself

A GREAT OBJECT LESSON

The European war and the incidents of magnitude associated with it have fur nished an object lesson which, supported as it now is by the efficiency of the fed- erai reserve system, teaches that there is no danger in the United States of the establishment of a powerful monopoly of capital and money resources of the kind which is meant when the term money trust'' is used.
 Large as the figures which tell of the aggregate deposits now carried by the City bank are. they are nevertheless not more significant of present conditions than are the figures which have been re- gently reported by other banks. Chicago for instance. which has not been bene- fited approximately as the New York banks have by the demands occasioned by the European war, nevertheless is now reporting the largest aggregate deposits the banks of that city have ever carried That is true of other cftifs. There are several banks in New York city whose re- cent gains in deposits, while not as large absolutely as are those of the City bank, nevertheless are perhaps larger relatively.

FATHERS RIGHT.

When a young man fresh from college,
arrives IT the home nest, he is usually
pulled up with the idea that he is an intel
lectuaI giant, a star in the armament OF
learning and is incapable ofbeing instructed
in any of the gentle arts of everyday life.
Such case came under our observation,
the other day, when one of these callow
youths refused to take instructions from
"Paw" as to the proper method of handling
a Maxwell car
The aforesaid youth had never handled
a Maxwell car before, but this cut no figure.
"Son, said Paw it has to be done by
disengaging the sliding transmission gear
from the clutch of the speedometer.
Sons comment was that Paw was only
good for paying bills and posing for family
photographs, and he proceeded to back the
Maxwell down into ditch which required
the services of an expert to extricate it.
