 QueStionnaire

Judge J. Q. Smith in his reply yesterday in reference to a Aues- tionnaire on membership in the ku Klux Klan sent out by the Birming- ham Bar association. declared that if judge is honest. fearless and able. membership in any organiza- tion authorized by the laws of the land should not conflict with the performance of his official duties.
 In returning the questionnarie Judge smith who is seeking re- election, made the following reply. Birmingham Bar Association. City: "Gentlemen:
 Gentlemen: l beg to acknowledk e receipt of questionnaire making in- quiry as to whether or not 1 hold membership in the so-called Ku K1ux Klan.
 The only issue in contest for a judicial office should be competency and character, ability and integrity. If a judge is honest, fearless and able, membership in any organiza lion authorized by the laws of the land should not conflict with the proper performance of his official duties. If he is not honest, fearless and able, membership in every or ganization under the sun would be no Justification for his seeking judi cial office, or attempting to perform the sacred duties of a judge
 T want every citizen, regardless of his race, color, religion or political affiliations, to feel assured. that when he comes before the court over which Ipreside, in a matter involv- ing. his legal rights. that he will re- oeive patient, intelligent consider ation of his case, a fair and impartial trial, and an honest decision.
 T am unwilling, as d judge and candidate for judicial honors, even indirectly to contribute anything that might be used by partisans without the bar in an effort to array any part of the public against the ether, or that might tend to lesson .tha confidence of the public in their judiciary.

President Traders National Bank
 tAddress made yesterday to Retail credit Mems Association of Birming fam).
 Among the most important ele- ments in the banking business are, to possess the confidence of the pub lie so that patronage will come; to conduct the business satisfactorily to patrons; and to handle credits we'll And the remarks made today will re- late to the handling of bank credits. However, as the same principles ap- ply in the extension of all credit. l believe the data submitted will be of interest also to you gentlemen of the Retail Credit Mems association one essential difference between the extension of credit at bank and the extension of credit by mercantile concerns is that as a rule the bank must agree to take care Of the full credit requirements of the customer rom the beginning; while the mer- eantile concern may sell small bill of goods and if payment is not satis- factorily made it can discontinue re- lations.
 4 bank officer occupies q sort of judicial position because he stands between the depositor whose funds are used in making the loan and the borrower who needs accommodation. The bank officer must, therefore. re- gard his work also in the nature Of q stewardship, l think it is because of this element in the situation that bank men often acquire a reputation for being cold blooded in their man ner Of doing business. IL goes with but saying that a successful credit man is handicapped to an extent in the effort to be a mixer or regarded In the public estimation as a good fellow He cannot afford to be in- fluenced either by the fear of enemies or over influenced by con- alterations of friendship
 Investigation
 Banks obtain information with reference to the credit standing of parties in the main in the follow ing ways: By securing reports from mercantile agencies; by consulting persons who have extended credit to the party of who are otherwise we'll informed as to his condition; and by

This necessitates the reholding of exam inaIions to secure the required num- ber of applicants
 Write to the Secretary
 No doubt there are many persons in the vicinity of Birmingham who would be we'll qualified to pass the requirements of many examinations should they call upon, or write the civil service secretary here, as all announcements of pending examina- tions are kept for those who call desiring information concerning po- sitions.
 The secretary states that the next large class. which he will have will likely be that for general clerical, field service, on July II, as no pre- vious experience is required, and to fill vacancies as they occur through out the state.
 List of Examinations
 Other technical and scientific ex- aminations announced are for assist ant editors. women in industry; ma tron, Indian service; fish culturfst, as sistant examiner, patent office junior engineer and deck officer; coast and geodetic survey highway bridge en- gineer. horticulturist; junior tele- phone operator, (WashlD Linotype machinist; civil service examiner, tWash.); assistant radio engineer, radio inspector; law clerk and typist; dentists and physicians, public health service

 MISS. MILLS CHARGED WITH DEFICIENT FOOD

Jackson, Miss, June 15.-( Especially MT W. F. Hand, state chemist, with headquarters at the A. & NJ college. writes P. P. Garner chairman. that his feed and fertilizer inspectors have turned in samples of very de- ficient cotton seed meal and ferti- lizers, and gives the names of the five or six mills in Mississippi and me in New Orleans that haze been caught short on their guaranteed analysis The output of these mills is found from SS to $4 short on total value due to the use of smaller quan- titles of nitrogen and ammonia as stamped on each package.
 These reports of shortage will be printed in the biennial report of the commissioner of agriculture so that farmers may see what mills are giv- ins them honest measures. The man. ufaeturers of the goods will have to pay the farmers the difference.

 payment seasonally or at least once in 12 months. Unless such a course IS pursued. an institution may soon reachfthe stage where 1t cannot meet the demands of deposftors.
 When the bank with which I am connected commenced business, we began to keep a record of the initial date of each loan and the number of times 1t was extended, and in tho months of June and December in eacn year all paper which has been re- newed more tha noace in a year has been carefully caHvassed. Such course Is advisable with a wick 10 calling attention of customers, where necessary, to the fact that theirsob- legations have been carried for a ionv period and must be paid There is d too general impression that banks de- sire the payment of interestonly and that any provision to retire the prin- eipal sum of the paper is unnecessary. To De required fIfm time to time to liquidate an obligation is. in the ma jority of cases, advantageous to the customers; for the unrestricted use of credit has injunred more men than t has helped.
 Collections
 1t,is essential for the credit depart ment of a bank to canvass paper care fully in advance of maturity with a view to determining what course should be pursued in leach instance. It lis also necessary to make a daily canvass of each demand and overdue paper. In some cases the makers, and in others the indorsers must be notified that notes are past due.
 There is at times a temptation to hold paper Of a doubtful character for fear of the result of an aggres- sive effort to make collection but a sa rule unsatisfactory notes are more likely to be paid if steps are promptly taken to liquidate them. It goes without saying, however, that discretion must be used and that each case must be considered separately from every other. In the majority of casesft is best not to allow paper to become old or long delinquent. The amount can be lost but once, and strong argument in favor of facing loss is that 1t may be ascertained and charged off without delay and the files of the institution kept clean.
