 Preferred Claims

Creditors of the Citizens Loan and Savings company filed a petition of in voluntary bankruptcy against the com pany yesterday in the federal court. John E. Shelby is president of this com pany. The creditors of the company who filed the petition asking that a receiver be appointed, alleging the payment of preferred claims, are: H. B. Atwood, Mrs. H. B. Atwood, J. A. Atwood, w. A.

 Sterling A. Wood is representing the petitioning creditors.

 ''The petitioners are small stockholders who claim that their stock was not validly issued, in that the proper ratio between the common and preferred stock was not maintained.

More Extensive Use of
 Trade Acceptances Is
 Urged by Paul Warburg

Chicago, June 18.-More extensive use of trade acceptances, time drafts un- derwritten by banks for commercial houses, was recommended to business men as a means of maintaining the na- tion's credit in fluid condition by Paul M. Warburg, member of the federal re- serve board in an address Monday be- fore the trade acceptance council.
 At a time when so much depends upon using every possible advantage to speed up production, so as to avoid unneces- sary tie-up of funds, the use of trade acceptances may be considered con tribution to the national welfare" said Mir. Warburg.
 Tt is one of the main virtues of the acceptance system that it makes for greater fluidity of credit. Instead of permitting one section of the country tc become overloaded in consequence of To- cal seasonal requirements, absorbing all available cash resources, bankers and trade acceptnces bring relief by flow ing into discount markets of other dis tricts where money is more plentiful. The adoption of the plan of financing the coming cotton crop largely through bank CTS and trade acceptances ought to result in greatly easing the burden to be car ried bv tha So1Ith during asthe season.

BERLIN VIA AMERICA | AT THE ALCAZAR
'Record-Breaking Crowds Witness War Film at All
 Performances


 Berlin Via America" which is being shown at the Alcazar theatre this week, is breaking all attendance records and is pronounced by movie fans as one of the best and most interesting films seen in Birmingham in sometime.
 The hero of this film enlists with the Huns to learn their secrets. Despised by his friends and disowned by his family he becomes an aviator in the German army Americans are mystified that No. 54 in flying over the American lines always dropped his bombs in the open fields and did no harm. No. 54 made his first hit among the Americans one day when he drops a brick to which is tied note telling of pro posed drive by the Germans and 1t is then the Americans learn the aviator is friend.
 The time comes when the aviator shows his hand. turning against the Germans openly and because he knows so many of their military secrets he is able to do much harm. When he re- turns to America the aviator is re- ceived as the greatest hero of them all

Reserve Banks May
 Call in Cotton Loans

Washington, June 1S.-(Special.)- )-A very serious question has arisen here as to whether 1t will be the continued policy of the federal reserve board to call in cotton loans. Representative w. F. Stevenson of South Carolina, quoting Governor Harding of the board as his authority, informed persons in his state that this was being done. A letter which MT Stevenson wrote to D. R. Coker, a member of the Richmond federal reserve bank board stated a Columbia bank had been advised as follows: We have ob- se-ved that you have 'een assured that this cotton is not being carried specu- latively, but we cannot see why farmers should be holding their cotton at this time, and wish to advise you that the notes secured by cotton must be retired at maturity, and we will not be willing to rediscount any renewals thereof" As seen by MT. Stevenson, there is no dJubt of the fact that it was the policy of the federal reserve board, so far .t least as the Richmond bank is concerned, to call in it's loans. although it is not known what the banks plans will be regarding other districts

Preliminary Plans for Utilizing Labor of Boys
 Made at Conference

Montgomery, June Especial. )-Pre- liminary plans for the utilization of the services of about 5000 boys of Ala bama in harvesting the crops this fall were made at conference between a committee of the Alabama council of defense, the state superintendent of ed ue ation. the state director of the boys 70 o.I-ing reserve and Major Burdette of London, England, today Although def- nite plans will not be completed for several days, it was suggested that the boy be used in the gathering of the heavy crops of corn and peanuts and that no effort be made to use them in gathering cotton, because of the extend- ed harvesting season of this crop.
 An arrangement will be made where by the boys will not be set back in their studies because of their absence in the fields. Plans will be completed during the next few weeks for the protection of those who volunteer for this work. A concrete example of the success of the plan was brought to the conferences by Lloyd M Hooper. chairman of the state council, who obtained four college boys and carried under cover 75 acres of oats Monday afternoon in time to pre- vent the rain from ruining the crop. MT Hooper had been unable to obtain other labor for this work and had not the boys been available the oats crop would nave been lost.
 Those planning for the use of boys were Governor Henderson, pr. C.. C.. Thach. MT. Hooper, w. Nash Redd, state director of the boys working reserve; J M. Starke. Spright Dowell. state super intendent of education; Prof. A. K. liar. mon and Major Burdette.
