where two sets of delegates were elect
ed. The national committeemansaip
also is involved in the Georgia con-
test.
According to Executive Secretary
Hollister of the national committee NO

the Missouri state convention and the
fifth district convention did not fill
his place. 1t was said that James E.

the big theme of agitation with pros

Two figures newly arrived on the
scene attracted particular attention.
One was Senator Carter Glass of Vir-

Both of them were as busy as beav-

GIVE CREDIT WHERE DuE

Banks are slow TO give credit and
the people are as proverbially slow
TO give bankers credit for anything.
In the universal complaint over ad-
vanced prices OF everything. there IL
one business that has not taken ad-
vantage OF the trend OF the times.
Banks have not raised prices to
keep pace with every other line of
business or professional activity. The
banks OF the United States are charE-
Ing practically the same rates for
money as they did before the war.
Banks themselves probsbH feel
the advanced prices as much as any
other one line OF business.

MUST MELT BELL IN TOWER
Only Way II Can Be Removed From
St. Louis City Hall Is in
BucketfuIs.

st. Louis.-The two-ton bell which
hangs in the tower of the city hall has
made the tower unsafe, but the bell
is so large it would be dangerous to
try to take it down, so it is to be melt
ed right where it is with aceaylene'
blow torches. such as are commonly
seen in use b. workmen, repairing car
tracks.
Building Commissioner McKelvey
pronounced the tower unsafe as long
as the bell remains, because the steel
supports have become corroded. More
over, he said. an attempt to lower the
bell would be very dangerous, there
fore the decision to take it down a
bucketful at a time.
The only time in recent years that
the bell has been rung was the day
of the armistice celebration. 1t WAS
rung when the building was construct
ed in 1904. The bell cost about So,
900. The expense of removing it will
be about S1500. 1t is six feet high
and four feet in diameter ut the base.
