WAR AND INCREASE IN SAW
 ING'S DEPOSITS.

Despite the heavy demands mad
 upon investment institutions in con : nection with the placing of the Fourtl
 Liberty Loan bonds by the Nationa
 Government, the increased cost of liv ing and other incidentals the saving
 banks of Pine Bluff have made ar excellent showing. stated a Pine Bluff banker at the head of the saw ing's department of local bank yes. terday.
 Not only have local banks made ex- cellent showings but savings deposits tl1duout the United States are good l According to the local banker the fol- lowing report by Al savings banks l of New York state. is a good criter- ion of savings deposits in war times and other things that would be thought to have tendency to cause a slump in deposits:
 Figures submitted by these insti- tutions show that their total resources on that date were $2,169, ,877,364 with one exception the largest total re- soudces ever reported. As compared with the total resources reported on July 1. 1917, there was loss of appro- ximately $3.OOO,00OC.
 Notwithstanding the large with drawals for the purchase of Liberty bonds, there was an actual increase in the amount due depositors, including dividends credited to depositods on the books of the institutions and not withdrawn, from July 1, 1917, to July 1, 1918, of more than $25O,000, the total amount due deepositors on the latter date being $1,991, ,72O, ,349.
 The depositors with savings banks during the year ending July 1, 1918, excluding dividends credited. amount ed to $448, ,201, which was $54,- 280,743 less than the amount depos- tied during the previous year. The to- tai amount withdrawn during the 1918 period was $521 ,298 ,363 or $55,- 447,605 mode than the amount with drawn during the preceding year.
 Par value surplus of the institutions upon which taxation is based, July 1, 1918, was $217,313,648. an increase during the year of $15,694,056. The total number of open accounts on July 1, 1918, was 3,446,899, net loss of 5,222 accounts during the year.
 The dividends either paid or cred ited by these institutions during the year ended Julp 1, 1918, amounted to $72,9O5.918 an increase of $1 ,8S3, ,557 owed the preceding year.

-W. S. S.-- VOTE FOR CONSTITUTION.

The voters of Pine Bluff, Jefferson county and Arkansas will accept or refuse the proposed constitution for this state at the polls today. That the opinions of the citizenry are divided is not doubted. In fact it is stated that the antis are about as strong as those favoring the new constitution.
 Every one has right to his opin- ion. However, the new measures should be adopted. They could be bet ter it is admitted. But at the same time it is pointed out that uner the circumstances the new constitution is the best that can be secured at the present time.
 The fight waged against it's adopt. ion is the article in regard to the issuing of municipal bonds for muni- cipal financing. It is asseted that the issuing of bonds by cities anc towns leaves the gate wide open te graft. At the same time the antis admit that municipal financing is 2 systematic way of transacting busi, ness.
 Taking the proposed constitution 1T it's entirety it is an improved one over the one now in use. The constitution that served the state forty years agt is about the same as a horse car as compared to the electric cars of tn, present day. For the time being lei the voters of the state accept tn, new constitution even if it is takel with a grain of salt. Let us take i aud hope for better things in years tt come.
 | With the end of the war new con stitution and legislation will be diff cult. Other things will will demand our attentions and for the present tn, voters should take the view that the, will vote for it's adoption but that i
 could be better and will be bette

 ----W. S. S.- EMBLEM OF DEATH FOR GER
 MAN MADE GOODS.

Several thousand of German made toys arrived in the United States a few days ago. They were refused and the merchant who refused them did SO 1 at 9 financial loss. However, accord ing to news dispatches, the concern
 did so without the request or coercion of any official person or being. The toys were for whom? For the innocents carried down on the Lusi- tania. For the Belgian children from
 which hands were cut off by German
 officers swords, when they stretched
 them forth for bread. For those
 children starved in Poland and for the sightless ones of France.
 Toys, made by the Huns to whom innocence and childhood are but toys to be played with then crushed
 and broken.
 Everyone buys Christmas toys this
 year should take care that those pur-
 chased are not german made. What
 merchant who for sorddid gain will
 barter these toys during the holiday
 season? No merchant of Pine Bluff,
 the state of Arkansas or of the Uni
 ted States will take the chance. In future years this country will not accept, goods made by the Huns. If now when we as nation are in
 universal condemnation of Hunism,
 should accept his works? What will he think, and with what sincerity will
 he think our expressions have been 1 rendered.?
 Even while the paint was being put l on these toys, were Belgian girls being dragged into slavery worse than death.
 After the war-which is practical
 ly over-excepting the rolling up of the barbed wire. german goods will not be purchased in America. This
 country will have sufficient manu- factures and ''Made in germany
 handiwork will find no market on this 1 side. The emblem of death for ger
 man products should be hanged on
 every business concern in this coun- try, wholesale, retail and by the pur-
 chasers or would be pudchasers.
