ANN|STON LIVING WITHIN ITS INCOME
 AND PAYING DEBT
Forthcoming Auditors Re port on Financial Condi- ton Is Expected to
 Show Progress

Annistnn. November -(Speeiai)-It is believed that the forthcoming re- port of Auditor H. l.. Todd of Birming- ham. who is conducting the auditing of the city books and vouchers will make 8 good presentation of Anniston's gem eral financial condition and show that the city is living well within its i'm come as will be reflected in the state ment of operations for the past year.
 The large deficit of nearly s20O,0oo annually shown in Annistons reports will be practically wiped out at this time by set-up of assets never be- fore written on the citys ledgers. The school property alone will show an in crease of many thousands of dollars. The auditor has discovered. in check ing up officers bonds, insurance pol icies and deeds, that deeds to some of the citys property are not on file at the city hall, nor do they appear to have been recorded.

FIRE LAST SUNDAY.

On Sunday morning our good ci..
izens were aroused from their slum-
hers by the fire bell. Mrs. Mary Bar
toms business block, which is occu-
pied by PERI & Tolzi and A. NJ. Wish
art, was in danger OF complete destruc-
ton. The FIRE started in the roof and
had made considerable Roadway, but
quick work on the part Of citizens
saved the building with but little dam
age.
A. NJ Wishart was fully covered in
Cooper's FIRE insurance agency, which
promptly adjusted the loss, and yes
terday (Friday) check for the same
was handed to Mr.. Wishart. This is
some quick work, but prompt adjust
ment and settlement of losses are
characteristic Of Cooper's agency.

Treasury SENDS
OUT STATEMENT.

The First National bank has received
the following from the secretary of
the treasury department at Washing
ton:
among the many absurd and vic
ious rumors which are being put into
circulation these days, probably
through pro-German influences, is one
that the government proposes to con-
fiscate the money on deposit in the
banks.
"The absurdity Of the statement is
obvious on it's face, but l have received
letters from several parts Of the coun-
try which indicate that this rumor is
being circulated for an evil purpose.
Of course, these rumors are wholly
without foundation, In fact the gov
ernment has no power to confiscate
the money of depositors in banks"

EDITOR WARNS
FALL ALIENS
Says They Are Still Active in the
United States---Asks Several
Striking Questions

In a speech in New York, John R.
Rathom, editor of the Providence jour
nal, among other things, said:
''Is the lesson of the Baltimore fire
to go unlearned? Is the lesson of the
destruction of the Washburn plant to
go unheeded? Why are thousands of
skilled German sailors, provided with
ample funds regularly supplied them
by German bankers and German
steamship managers in New York city,
allowed to road through the United
States? Why are dozens Of Austrian
c0nsuls and consular officers allowed
to be at large in the cities Of the Unit
er States?
"Can any sane man believe that the
German-language daily press Of the
United States is any less traitOrOus at
heart than it was the day before war
was declared? Why are dozens of
reasonable sheets of this kind, owned
and run by men who are known to the
government to be traitors, permitted
to continue publications."
Mr.. RathOm said that the United
States secret service, while loyal and
capable, was ridiculously under
manned and underpaid.

ADVISES BUYING
FORD CAR NOW

Raymond Wheeler, proprietor of
the Philbrick garage, advises all those
who contemplate purchasing a Ford
car to place their orders now The
time may come, he has ben advised
by the factory, that it will be impossi-
BILE to supply the demand, and in
stead of waiting a few days, a custom
er may wait weeks. There has been
no raise in price, but this may come
soon. Conditions are so uncertain that
the company will not assume the liza
bility Of accepting orders. Mr.. Wheel
er has a special salesman who will
call if you will telephone the garage.
Ford cars cost less than two years
ago, and with other cars going higher
the figures of Fords look attractive.
