FARMLOAN BOARDTO
VISIT BIRMINGHAM
Selection of Magic City Re-
garded as Most Favorable
Alabama Location

Washington, October ESPECIALLY
general invitation to the farmers OF
Alabama to meet Secretary of the
Treasury w. G. McAdoo, George w
Norris. Herbert Quick. w. S. A. Smith
and C. E. Lobelle in Birmingham, Oc-
tober 2S
In formal statement the members
of the board expressed a desire that
Alabamians in large numbers attend
the hearing arranged for that date
and give information as to rates OF
interest charged, difficulty in secur-
ing extensions of loans, improvement
in property as result of loans and
other data which will facilitate the
board in the completion of its work.
The fact that the board selected
Birmingham as the city in which to
transact its business in Alabama is
taken to mean in Washington that
the board regards the Magic City as a
more favorable place for the location
of the southern bank than Montgom-
cry.
Secretary McAdoo sometime ago
promised Senators Bankhead and I'm
visit Birmingham. 1t is understood
further that Montgomery citizens who
were recent visitors to Washington
left with the understanding that
Montgomery would be visited and Biz
mingham neglected. In regard to his
promise to the senator's it is appar-
ent that Secretary McAdoo has made
good.
Among residents of Birmingham who
are in Washington at present and some
OF them are very close to the bank
ing business of the government, it is
regarded as highly probable that Biz
mingham will be chosen as the site
for the bank to be placed in the agrf-
cultural belt.
Atlanta and New Orleans, having
been favored in the establishment of
the banks and branches of the fed
eral reserve system, are eliminated
from competition.
Memphis is regarded as Birming-
hams strongest rival The board will
reach Birmingham from Macon early
Saturday morning and according to
present plans will leave for New Or,
Neans Sunday night remaining in Biz
mingham a longer time than in any
other southern city.
1t is understood that the board will
not accept entertainment at homes, but
this rule will not constitute an inhi
bition against other forms of entertain
ment. From New Orleans the board
will go to Jackson, thence to Mem
phis, Texas and the southwest will be
visited at a later date.

AMUSE M ENTS.
At the Casino.

or all the varied subjects chosen by
moving picture directors the one de-
picted at the Casino Friday night In
The unfaithful Wife" is perhaps one
of the most unpleasant. Why any one
should want to go and see man
buried alive by his wife and her lover,
and then see the man wake up and
climb out of his coffin is a puzzle.
Robert Mantell takes the part Of Count
Romani, who Is married to Juliet, a
young girl who loves Arturo, an art
list. They conceive the pleasing idea Of
burying Romani alive. which they are
able to do because of a plague which
permits people to be buried without
embalming.
Romani climbs out OF his coffin In
the vault, goes back, finds his wife
with her lover. and DISCUSSES himself
as an old friend of the supposedly dead
husband. Later he leads his wife back
to the vault to show her some jewels
after ne had proposed to her, and been
accepted because of his great wealth
AS a grand climax he locks his wife
up in the charmed house and leaves her
to die. The entire picture has an at
mosphere OF grewsomeness which
leaves an unpleasant impression, altho
the acting and scenic effects are all
that could be desired.
