MERCHANTS ASSN.
ENDORSES MOVE
FOR COTTON POOL
Meet at Civitan Club Wednesday
Shows Much Interest in move
to Stabilize Cotton Price

At a call meeting of the Merchants
association at the Civilian club rooms
Wednesday afternoon, cooperative
cotton marketing was explained bv
Mr.. Dee Erwin and Mr.. Boyd Con-
well. Mr.. Erwin is active in the or,
ganlzation of the Georgia pool. Mr..
Conweil is a farmer-banker from
LaVonia.
After the California marketing,
plan had been thoroughly explained
by the speakers, the members of the
merchants association present unan-
imously voted endorsement of the
plan,
The great benefits to the farmers
We're 9o.lted out by Mr.. Erwin and
Mr. Cu2well, and the speakers fur
the, oaJIined in detail how the mer-
chants would benefit from the plan.
Mr.. Erwin stated that the cotton
mil men over the country were in
favor of the plan because it would
stabilize the price of cotton and make
the manufact0re of cloth leEs a
gamble than at the present time.
One of the main points stressed by
the speakers was the elimination Of
the middlemen in the sale Of cotton,
and better price for the farmer and
manufacturer, with no increase in
the price of cotton goods.
The speakers showed conclusively
how the cotton association would
practically control the price of cotton
and could assure farmers a profit on
the crop every year. If sufficient
cotton is signed up, according to Mr..
Erwin, the New York exchange
would no longer be able to fluctuate
the market and cause farmers to sell
below cost and the mills to pay a
high price for cotton
Many of the men present promised
their cooperation in putting Cobb
county over with her quota, and to
assist il explaining the marketing
plan to heir friends.

STATE FINANCES
ON SOLID FOOTING
SAYS HARDWICk

Atlanta. Ga. March 8, 1922-When
all taxes in Georgia for the year OF
I1921 have been paid, the State will
have at Last reached firm financial
footing, according to Governor Hard
wick, who in a statement, declared
that after paying all appropriations
for 1921, a balance of almost a mil
lion dollars will have been left in the
treasury.
Governor Hardwick said that APP
proximately $1,750,OO0 was yet to be
paid into the state by the county tax
collectors, and that the only apprO-
priation for 1921 to be met was about
81 100000 toward the school fund.
There is at present $350,0O0 in the
treasuary, he said.
"If all the taxes are paid at once,
the State would be in a most COM
Portable financial condition." the
governor said. con surplus of a
bout three quarters of million dol
lars, with what the gasoline tax will
bring in quarterly, we can run very
nicely until the taxes are due again
next year.
"The taxes are a lite slow in COM
ing in, of course. In years before,
most of them have been paid before
this time, but | am sure they will
have been paid before April 20, the
last day."
The governor said that he recently
borrowed 100000 to pay half of the
remainder of the school appropria-
ton, and would nay the other half as
soon as sufficient money had come in
to the treasury. He pointed out that
he had obtained this loan at five
per cent rate of interest, payable in
September, with the privilege of pay
ing at any time. He said that this
amount would be paid Immediately
on receipt of sufficient money.
"There is one thing that worries
me-" the governor said, chat is the
payment of the 100000 due the pen
sioners this month. OF course, this
is not total 1921 debt, and for that
reason | have given orders that the
school funds are to be paid first.

Dr.. Malone Gives Out Statement
Showing Result of Audit,
Also Other Information

DR.. j. D. Malone, president of the
Marietta Trust and Banking Compa-
NY, by request of the editor of the
journal, has given the following sta
tement as to the facts learned by the
audit of the books and records of the
closed bank, which has been going
on during the past month;
"The audit was completed last
week, and the notes and securities
were appraised by local committee
composed of D. W. Blair, H. n. Du-
Pre-, j. E. Massey, T. J. Conner, and
Fred Morris.
"The loans aggregated about $780,
coo, and only about $4,000 of the
amount was charged off as not be-
ing good. The assets of the bank as
shown by the audit, after the apprai-
sement, amount to S345,436. This
amount should be increased by more
than 100000, after the collection of
the surety bonds of $25, 900, and the
return by the Government of some
$4,000 income taxes paid by the bank
during the past five years, and the
liability assessment against the stock
holders.
"The total liabilities are $489,276,
practically all of which is to the de-
positors.
"The combined shortage of Gilbert
and Sessions is shown by the audit
to be approximately $233,O00, which
includes all Irregularities, as we'll as
the amount of the banks funds lost
in speculation. 1t does not show the
amount of each ones individual
shortage with the bank.
"The records and evidence found
by the auditors show that they specu-
lated in various stocks through two
different firms of Wall street brok-
ers, who are members of the New
York Stock Exchange. With one Of
these firms they carried three ac-
counts, one in the banks name, and
one in each of their individual names
Thew transferred large sums of the
banks funds to those accounts. and
used the money to buy various stocks
on margin in the stock market. The
records also show specific transac-
tons in which large sums of money
were lost.
."Ouite a good deal of their personal
correspondence with the brokers'
statements of accounts. etc, together
with other evidence. is now in the
possession of the State Superinten-
dent of Banks. and the Attorney
General. Legal steps will be taken
at once to try to recover some of the
banks money thus lost. as it is j.
egol in New York State for brokers
0 knowingly accept money from
Fankprs for speculation.
"Thn records indicate that the
speculation has been goino on some
eight or ten years. but the larger
part of the money is shown to have
been lost from 1917 to 1920. Since
TIE early part of 1920, a shortage
los evisted according to the audit. Of
something like 100000, ard thew
have kept it covered nm with f"ti-
tious PAPER false entries and false
statements"
