Montgomery, Ala.

We desire to express our apprecia- tion of the efficient service of your company and uniform courtesy of your employees.
 The telephone Is of primary import ance in our business, and it is be- cause of the excellent service that we are enabled to ship thousands of dol lars worth of flowers to all points in the southern part of Alabama and southeastern Georgia on short notice We average over ten long distance calls per day and these are handled with such celerity that the interfer- ence to the local service is reduced to minimum. The fact that you have connection in all of the small towns in this state Is of great importance to us because it enables us to receive rush orders for funerals, weddings, etc, in the very quickest possible manner. The local service must also be com plimented on their handling of calls as during our rush days, our three tel ephones are handled in such a manner as to give us the greatest number of calls with the least possible delay.
 In this connection we wish to say that the telephone ranks as high as any other public service utility, if not more, in the commercial and social up building of community.

 WHAT BANK REPORTS SHOW
 Another item in the national inventory for the past fiscal year is furnished by the reports of the national banks. Within a few weeks of the close of the fiscal year. the national banks reported leans aggregating ss,751, ,OOO00O. round numbers. These figures are a little over sf .OOo. o0oO0O greater than the figures which reported bank loans for the cor responding period of the previous year. Of course, these loans tell a story of in- creased business and of a vast increase in the use of credit Nevertheless, in tho same F months the total reserves of the national banks that included the re- serve cash in their vaults and on de- posit at the federal reserve bank was $1,- 525, GOO 000, or $325, ,O00, 000 more than were the reserves in the corresponding period of last year. In the fiscal year which has just begun all reserves will be kept with the federal reserve banks. No longer will it be possible under the law for banks located elsewhere than New York to send a part of their reserves to their New York bank correspondents and receive interest usually at the rate of 2 per cent upon these deposits. But on the other hand, the law provides that a smaller amount of money be held as a reserve than was permitted before the recent amendment to the federal reserve law.
 THE ONE EXCEPTION
 The inventory which tells about our condition in the past fiscal year con- tains one disquieting item. For while the average price of 15 railroads a year ago was little under S125 a share, yet at the beginning of the present fiscal 4L1 was only trifle over S108. On the other hand, there was an increase in the av- craze price of leading industrial stock from 90 6s-10o to 9S 4-1o0. The railroad situation and condition in the fiscal year which has now begun will probably be regarded as the most important factor in the maintenance of our prosperity.
