Organization Set For
Next Friday

ATLANTA, Dec. 11.-Bankers of
Georgia and twelve other southern
states are felicitating themselves to-
day upon the success of their plans
in organizing the Federal Interna-
tional Banking company, six mil
lion dollar corporation, which is to
provide credit for exporting south
ern products to foreign countries.
The subscription books to the cap
ital stock, which have just been clos
ed, shows a large oversubscription,
and announcement is made that the
formal organization meeting will be
held at New Orleans Friday of next
week. December IT.
The Federal international Bank
ing company, when formally organ
lied next week, viii not engage di-
rectly in the sale of cotton or other
commodities, but with its capital and
facilities, including branch banks in
foreign countries, it will help to pro-
vide a market for cotton and other
southern products by arranging and
extending credits. Under the law,
the bank may issue debentures or
sell acceptances to ten times the
amount of its capital which means
that the institution with a minimum
capital of S6,000,000 may, and no
doubt will, be able to finance $780,
100000 in foreign exports.

Something of an ovation was Piv-
en- Rev. Sllas Johnson last Thursday
at the Rotary luncheon, this being
the first meeting he has been able
to attend since his return to Lee
Street church. Professor j. E. Ma
this was the first to speak, and he

pass up our working capital for the
future AS Rotary club we all are
liable item on the profit side of our

of Time goes over as an asset and
working capital for the next year.
''For it came to pass that Timothy
journeyed unto Moultrie for con-
ference with the Bishop and the Ed
ers because some contention had
arisen over the assignment of Silas
who has come to be greatly recon-
mended by the brethren as blessed
with the power fthe ministry and
full of the grace of God.
"And Timothy prevailed with the
Bishop and the Elders and departed
from the conference with Silas re-
turned to Americas.
While all of us are not so strong
on general predestination, we will
admit it in Silas and love him for it

The Last Cut On
Winter Clothing

No man need wait for a lower
price. 1t can't be done. If you can
buy a standard brand, guaranteed
clothing anywhere in Americas at a
lower price than we are offering you
we advise you to do so-for we
cannot sell you at greater loss on
these suits and overcoats than we are
offering you now at half price. AS
clearly as type can speak to i'm
press this fact: You haven't seen
such values in years. Every suit and
overcoat in this sale was made for
this seasons service, modelled by ex-
pert designers worked by skilled tail
ors and made of the choicest wool
ems.

NEW CASE Is
EXPECTED TO
RUN WEEK MORE

Los Angeles, CAL, Jan. 3.-Four
alienists remained to be called as
witnesses for the defense when the
trial Of Harry New on a charge Of
numbering his fiancee, Freda Lesser,
was resumed today.
DR.. Ross Moore had already testi-
fed to the belief that New was in
sane both before and after the kill
ing of Miss Lesser. He declared New
suffered from paranoia of dementia
praecox type, closely allied to para
phrenia.
b Contrary to custom, a Saturday
morning session was scheduled and
court was to open at 9 instead of 10
o'clock SO that the giving Of the case
eventually to the jury might be ex-
pedited. It's conclusion, recently pre-
dicted for about January g." now
seems improbable before January
10, according to both prosecution
and defense.
