Embargo in Atlanta
On Melon Shipments


ATLANTA, July 17.-An embar-
go has been placed on all incoming
shipments of watermelons by all
railroads serving Atlanta, it is an
nounced here, because thece is an
over-accumulation of freight cars in
the yards. Shipments can be made
only by securing a special permit,
showing that the receiver has no cars
standing in the way on the team
track.
1t is stated that the roads hope
the congestion will clea= sufficiently
for the embargo to be removed the
first of next week.
Local produce merchants and
handlers of melons were not con-
cerned over the embargo today, be-
cause of an over-supply on the mar
ket. ''The embargo will afford
handlers a chance to clean up pres
ent receipts and thus give the mar
ket a healthier Tone" declared one
merchant.
With the purpose of speeding
shipments of coal, the local car SER
vice committee announced today that
an embargo will be placed on coal
dealers who hold cars more than
twenty-four hours unless good cause
is shown.

u. S. Bank Supervisors
Back Exchange Fight

ATLANTA July III. R. Ad-
ans, general secretary of the Nation
al and State Bankers Protective As
ISOLATION, has. received word of the
unanimous adoption of resolutions
pledging full support to the fight of
charges by the National Association
the bankers for proper exchange
of Supervisors of State Banks.
This body, which includes the state
banking superintendent of every
state has unequivocally stated its 20
sition in these resolutions and calls
upon Congress to so amend the Fed
eral Reserve Act to permit banks in
proper cases to charge and collect
reasonable exchange on out-of-town
cash items.
The resolutions also call upon the
American Bankers Association to help
in the fight for exchange and COM
mends the Federal Reserve Bank for
its neutral attitude toward the mat
ter.
A committee of five of the state
superintendent was appointed to
bring this matter before Congress
and otherwise assist in efforts to so
amend the reserve act as to make
plain the right of banks to charge ex-
change. The committee appointed is
as follows:
John S. Fisher, Pennsylvania; D. F.
Green, Alabama; Ira R. Pontius,
Ohio; Marshal Consess, Wisconsin;
and Charles F. Sterne, California.
1t is felt that this action by the
state superintendent will have effect
on the bill now before the Georgia
legislature to make it mandatory up
on state banks in this state to charge
exchange.
