Spain "Suggests" u. S.
Leave Santa Domingo
(By Associated Press]

MADRID. Sept. 1O.-The Spanish
government has transmitted to Wash
ington letter from the head of all the
parliamentary parties suggesting that
the United States now has an oppor-
tunity to terminate the military occu-
patton of Santo Domingo.
United States marines were ordered
to Santo Domingo on November 25,
1914, because there was a threat of
revolution there. A treaty was negoti-
ated between the United States and
Santo Domingo early in 1917 by which
this country assumed a virtual pro-
tectorate over Santo Domingo. San
to Domingo's claims were presented
before individual delegations to the
peace conference in Paris, but the
country was not included in the list
making up the league of nations.

BANKS REFLECT
LOCAL PROSPERITY
Richmonds Four Financial Insti-
tutions In Fine Shape At End
of Years First 6 Months

Probably never before in their his
tory were Richmond banks more pros
porous than right at present. At the
close of business June 30th, all of the
local banks declared their usual divi-
dends and carried nice sums to sur
plus, undivided profits or other funds.
Reports are now being prepared of
their formal conditions under the
call of the Comptroller of the Cur
rency, and these reports will show
their stockholders and patrons that
all are in very healthy condition.
The Madison National Bank made
the unusual record of declaring divi-
dends to total of 60 percent during
the six months ending June 30th. This
was due to a melon cutting which the
stockholders enjoyed in February at
which time $55, 900 of surplus was dis
tributed, in a 55 per cent dividend,
the remaining per cent dividend be-
ing the semi-annual dividend which is
a usual thing with this splendid old
institution. ..~.-
The Southern National Bank de-
clared its usual 8 per cent semi-ap-

financial circles and has made lot

The Citizen National Bank has a
splendid report in the paper today to
show its stockholders and friends. II
paid its usual per cent semi-annuaI

it's surplus and undivided profit fund,
something that is bound to make
every stockholder feel good.

posits, had the best six months in it's

TO TELL MERCHANTS
HOW TO STOP TROUBLES

Announcement has been made by
the Richmond Chambers of Com
merce, that it has completed arrange
ments with The National Cash Regis
ter Company to bring to Richmond an
illustrated lecture on retail merchan-
dising. The lecture, together with a
three reel feature film, TROUBLES of
a Merchant, and How to Stop Them ~
will be given Tuesday night, July, Is,
at $3.50 o'clock in the Alhambra Thea
tire. r. HI. Kennedy, expert lecturer,
will accompany the film.
The retail merchandising lecture,
which has been prepared by The Ma
tional CASH Register Company, is de-
clared to be one of the most compre-
hensive lectures on the reasons for re-
tail business failures ever prepared,
and has been shown before CONNER
cial bodies, conventions, and other or
ganizations the country over.
By means of stereopticon slides,
the lecture deals with the value of
newspaper advertising to the mer-
chant, tells him how to prepare ad-
vertisements, and also explains in de-
tail the best methods of window dis
play, how to solve delivery problems,
perfect store organization, and
other interesting ideas.
The feature film, "Troubles of a
Merchant, and How to Stop Them,
which will be shown for the first time
in this city, was prepared by the Es-
sanay Company for The National
Cash Register organization at a cost
of $4,000. Expert actors were en-
ployed for every character, and it is
said chat every scene contains les
son for retail merchants and their
salespeople.
The film tells the story of Mr..
White, a grocer, who was discourag-
ed and disheartened because of his
lack Of success. The story shows the
indifference of his clerks, his bad
store systems, his poorly arranged
stock, and other causes of his trou-
bles. How he finally rose to success
and prosperity through the introduc-
tion of modern methods into his store
will be shown in the film.
Many ideas of Importance to mer-
chants and clerks will be brought out
during the lecture. In other COM
munties where it has been shown, it
has met with great enthusiasm. 1t is
expected that every business man and
clerk in the city will avail himself of
the opportunity offered by the lecture.
and that large attendance will re-
suit. No charge will be made for
admission.

spent at the White House in four
months, the President early to-

lated during his long stay in
Paris, including the signing of a
number of important bills, Presi-
dent planned conferences with
congressional leaders members of

GREAT PLEA FOR
LEAGUE OF NATIONS

Few speakers, unless President
Wilson himself or ex-President
Taft, could excel in the defense Of
the League of Nations that was
made at the Chautauqua Tuesday
evening by DR.. Klein, of the Red
path staff. The, big audience lis
tened to his every word, and gave
him a round of applause at its
conclusion. He argued that the
United States is in honor and duty
bound to enter the League of Ma
tions, and brought evidence to
support his, argument that ap-
pears incontrovertibleA In what
other way, he asked, can a plan be
suggested that will preserve the
peace of the world? The strong
est and most partisan critics of
the League have offered nothing
and the time has arrived when the
world must do something to pre-
vent another such horror as the
war that has just ended. Space
forbids :, even a resume of the
splendid address of DR.. Klein.
Richmond is fairly ringing with
praise of the very clever illustrat-
ed talk given by Ada Ward Mon
day evening at the JChautauqua.
Her subject was, "Getting To-
gether," and her forceful appeal
made stronger still, the bond be-
tween America and Great Britain.
She is a most interesting speak
er, having charming platform
presence and possesses brilliancy
of power and scintillating wit that
characterizes all her utterances.
Her blackboard sketches were
most ingenious and recalled the
days "When you and l were
young, Maggie" Her portraitures
of soldiers, doctors and nurses
were very deterous. She closed
her lecture with a dramatic en-
treaty to "carry on" quoting the
appealing lines from "In Flanders
Field"
Take up the quarrel with the
! foe;
To you from failing hands we
throw
The torch: be yours to hold it
high"
And everyone in the audience
with drop of red blood in their
make up, left the tent with a
solemn resolution to accept the
challenge and not to break faith
with those who sleep in Flanders
field. The lecture was something
to be remembered and treasured.
