Friendly Cop Offers Aid


just at this point, all my plans wer,
threatened by a big, fatherly Irish po
liceman who was detailed to conduct
me to the prison. On our way down to
the alley where the patrol wagon was
to meet us, he said:
"This is your first time up, little

''Isn't there anyone you know who
will put up the money and keep you
out of jail?"
There was no one, | declared.

me gently through a door into bare

to get into Jail, my plans were about

door closed behind me, she turned and
greeted me with "Hello, dearie, what
are you in for9'
[ told her briefly that 1 had been
caught stealing fur boa and had got
ten 10 days for it. She sympathized
with me while explaining that her ease
was still in doubt, although the charge
was totally different one-an offense
which her appearance made it reason
ably easy to guess at.
With the garrulousness of her type,
she told me of her husband from whom
she was never separated more than
stone S throw, because, she explained,
they were usually in Jail at the same
time with only stone wall between
them! And she also told me of her
boy who was growing up ON his grand

will enable them to go far in liqui-
dating indebtedness on account Of
losses of the past two years. Eugene
Meyer, managing director OF the War
Finance Corporation, declared here
today. He addressed the Georgia
Bankers Association.
I'VE have succeeded In relieving
the banking situation in the country
districts by taking over some Of the
slower loans that were good, thus
removing the necessity for forced
liquidation and putting the banks in
a position to carry their customers
for a longer period, and make new
loans" Meyer said.
He predicted farmers would make
more money this year than for sew.
