Resources for Foreign Credits
After referring to the growth of
American international banking ma
chlnery through the opening of branch
banking institutions in foreign fields,
in which the National City Bank has
taken leading part, the article adds:
NOW comes the question whether,
along with the organization of the eff
ticient machinery, the financial re
extended to American exporters for
carrying their foreign customers on
the same accommodating terms as are
offered by the exporters of other ma
lions, are equally we'll organized.
The answer is that American banks
have available the resources for an
lmmedlate organization of facilities for
the fullest extension of foreign credits

 Our Inter-Church league is under way now, the Methodist and Catholic boys having a dandy team all ready. Baptist. Presbyterian, Episcopal and the other churches will have to hurry up, or they will be out of the running for the loving cup.
 Start the New Year right, and have a big time. We have in the past by having the Douglas-Bisbee relay race. This year the race is called off on &C., count of the flu" quarantine. In place of the race this year, a big program will be put on in the gym. The boys can bring their dads, but 1t will have to be stag. There are a number of sur prises on the program. One of the big events will be basketball game. The rest of the program will be musical and athletic stunts by the fellows themselves. John Brownlisg chairman of the Boys Athletic committee, is m charge of the program. There will be eats and everything that makes a good time. A charge of 10 cents per person will be made to cover expense.
 A new gym class will be started in the very near future The idea of the class will be to develop leaders in our boys physical department, and at the same time to allow the boys to special ize in the branch of gymnasium work they prefer. Mir. Davis, our new physical director, is very enthusiastic over the prospect of such class. The class will be made up of the older boys in the boys department. Unless forced to change, they will meet three times a week, Monday and Wednesday from to 5:45, and Saturday morning from 1O:15 to II.
 Are you a member of the "Y"? That is the most familiar question among the boys of Bisbee now, and why should it not be? The boys are after 400 boys for the department, and they will get there. The merchants of Bis bee are also after the boys, and in favor of the "Y." Al Kobey thinks so much of the idea that he is giving three sweater coats to be used as prize Then the Fair store is giving two pairs of shoes. Mir. J. C. Penny has offered two excellent boys caps, Miller's Hat Shop, anything in the house up to s1o. Schwartz Brothers will give a pair of Regal shoes. These prizes are enough to make any fellow work.

 HAVANA, Dec: 27.-The liberal newspaper Fl Heraldo de Cuba, which was suppressed Tuesday by the DO lice, has been given permission to pub fish today under authority granted by the secretary of the interior. This is believed to be the first result of the meeting Thursday of conservative and liberal leaders who agreed to ap- point a joint committee to re-estab- fish political tranquility in Cuba.
 Fl Heraldo was suppressed for pub lication of an attack against un- named persons, but believed to have been officials of the present Cuban government, after Carlos Mendiel, it's editor, had challenged Food Controller Andre to a duel Andre declined.

Mr.. Dalhart is supreme at singing

ever he sings, from the most diff

A porch floor paint must be diff

prevent fading, and the vehicle, or
