The Proceedings Are Remanded
to the Lower Courts For
Further Hearings.
INVOLVES THE MATTER OF
PAR COLLECTION ON CHECKS
Georgia Courts Had Refused to
Enioin the Atlanta Federal
Reserve Bank From Collect
ing Checks Drawn on Nom
Member Banks.-Is of Wide
spread interest Throughout
the State.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, May 16.-The United
States supreme court today reversed
the DEGREES cf the Georgia courts,
which had refused to enjoin the At
lanta Federal Reserve Bank from col
lecting checks drawn on non-member
state banks, and the case has now
been remanded to the lower courts for
further proceedings.
The. issue before the supreme court
was merely whether. as matter of
pleading, the plaintiffs bill of com
plaint was a cause of action, and the
decision today was not final deter
mination, and the case will go back to
the federal district court. for the
Northern district of Georgia. where
the next step is expected to be trial
of the case on its merits.
Unfair Methods Charged.
The plaintiffs, in their petition, as
serted that in order to enforce it's
policy of par collection on checks, the
Atlanta Reserve Bank planned to
hold checks of small non-member
banks until they reached material
total. and then demand payment in
cash across the counter, and tn utii-
ize other methods which would make
it necessary for non-member banks to
always keep on hand sum of money
out of all proportion to their capital.
Such methods, they charged. would
eventually force them to- close their
doors. or to join the federal reserve
system.
The injunction to restrain the fed
eral reserve bank was dismissed when
fits demurred was sustained in the
Georgia courts. An appeal was then
taken to the supreme court. Governor
Harding, of the federal reserve board,
said tonight that the supreme courts
decision will not interfere with the
present check-clearing functions of
the federal reserve banks.

Would End City Court.

If such a circuit is organized, it
would mean. very probably. the 4abol-
ishment of the Brunswick city court
with four terms of superior court an
nually to take care of the court busg:-
ness of the county. There is quite
general interest in the outcome of. the
proposition, and as itis yet in the en-
bryo stage, it is impossible to fore
cast the attitude of the local bar, or
the, sentiment of the people.
Nothing definite will be given out
until the meeting is held here, prcb,
ably the first week in June, but it is
certain that the lawyers in attendance
upon court will, in leisure moments.
discuss the proposition, and come 10
some sort of an agreement, one way
or the other.

Held Here Soon.
NEW CIRCUIT WOULD
CONTAIN FOUR COUNTIES.
Would Very Probably Mean the
Adjustment of the Bruns-

sion For Four Terms of Su-
perior Court AnnuaIIy-Plans
Are Being Withheld.

It became known yesterday, from
unofficial sources, that plans are again
being discussed for the formation of
new judicial circuit, with the pro-
liability that definite action will be
taken on the proposal Immediately
after the adjournment of the present
term of Glynn superior court
While The News has no authentic
information concerning the matter. il
is currently reported that the propos-
ed new circuit would be made up of
the counties of Glynn, Mcintosh, Cam
den and perhaps. the new county of
Brantley. and that it would be known
as the Coast circuit.
The organization of such circuit
was discussed quite generally more
than year ago, but nothing definite
ever developed, although the matter
has not been given up, and it now
seems probable that it will be carried
through
Leaders in the movement are with
holding the particulars for the pres
ent, but The News has reliable infor-
nation that meeting OF the members
of the bar of the interested counties
is to be held in Brunswick shortly
after adjournment of the present term
of Glynn superior court, at which time
the matter will be gene into at length,
and the sentiment of the interested
counties towards the proposition OBJ

OIL FIELDS
 OF ALASKA
Survey Work May De- velop an Important

Washington. May 12::.-Testi- mony submitted to the Honse Committee on Territories today portends the development os great oil fields in Alasha.
 Random prospecting has dis closed indications and evidence of oil froma the, Arctic coast to the Aleutian islands, as we'll as at different points in,- the h. terior.
 The Geological Survey and the Coast GeodeticS Survey, have joined forces -in urging an additional appropriation to enable the making of a complete survey and the .charting of the Alaskan coast.
 Such survey, intwhich probable oil lands. would be defined. would tend to induce capital to prospect on a aelarge scale and doubtless develop an. import ant new industry for the Territory.

spoke some things which we very
much approve OF among them. he
said we cannot go up to the Lords s
table and invite asy one. as we are
accustomed to doing ia our homes
because this is the Lords supper
and not ours, for this reason they
call Us close communion. We
ask your prayers for ouI success

is untrue. The meeting was too

learned that where one man S

that there is common ground upon
which christians can meet and do
service for the Master. The Bap-

secute other denominations Tor
conscience sake it is they WHO
won this great boon of freedom
for all denominations. Their
blood flowed like a river. 1t is
indeed disgusting to see few sore
