K|WAN|ANS PASS UP B0ND.|ND0RSEMENT
Civic Organization Also Hears Gov. w. P. G. Harding of
 Federal Reserve

Besides observing "bankers' day" in which an address was made by w. P. G. Harding, governor of the Fed eral Reserve system, the Kiwanis Club at its luncheon yesterday de- cided to take no stand on the pro- posed bond issue.
 Governor Harding stated that the Federal Reserve system is not enti- tied to any too'great credit or blame. that it cannot establish artificial conditions in industry and that 1t is no bigger than the public which cre- ated it and which it attempts to serve.
 Resoluti ons passed by the club which were drawn and submitted by Col T. o. Smith as chairman of 8 committee appointed to study the bond question were as follows:
 We are opposed to this club pass ing upon these questions because it Is a matter that involves individual opinions of it's members to be ex- pressed at the polls and discussion of the question here settles nothing and tends to provoke a. division
  in partisan politics and hard feel ings."
 In reference to the work of the Federal Reserve during and after the war Mr. Harding said that the board tried to meet difficult position in a sensible manner and to hue to the line with the belief that results would justify the course taken. He said that Americans had an exagger- ated idea of the conditions following the war and that while we knew that Europe was torn to pieces and would need all kinds of. goods. we did not figure on the curtailed buying power of those nations.
 While the federal reserve cannot of itself create artificial conditions. Mir, Harding said that it did all 1t could to check the era of extrava- gance by raising the rediscount rate to member banks and thereby tight ening credit.
 Looking toward the future we have every reason to congratulate ourselves" said MT. Harding. Tn comparison with the other nations of the earth there. is really no com parisop." He predicted great pros- perity for the Birmingham district.

Shook Diuides Opposition
 To Bonds in Three Classes
Says Some Are Fed Up on Misinformation and Base Contentious Against Meas ure Accordingly

There are three classes opposing the school bond issue and three mill tax levy" said p. G. Shook.
 The opposition of one class is based on ignorance of the real facts or transformation; another is poll tical and the third is composed of a limited number of sincere and we'll meaning souls who ought to be ex- pending their energies and devotlng their splendid talents to better purpose.
 There are many persons lined up in opposition to the school bonds for the sole reason that they have been fed up on transformation in regard to the condition of our schools and the imperative immediate need of funds to correct the same. Then there is the political element, made up of those who are opposed to any thing and everything proposed or en- dorsed by the present city commits sion.
