BACK TO NORMAL

In no period since the war has
greater progress in the return to nor
mai business conditions been made
by industry. commerce and finance
than during the past year. This re-
establishment OF normal conditions
has been brought about by the work
ing of purely economic influences
These Influences and this result ccm-
oletely refute the arguments and pre-
tensions of Opportunist politicians and
radical demagogues who have sought
70 bring about readjustment by po-
Htcal measures. These measures
we're aimed to give gratuitous advan-
tages TO the special interests and
classes which the proposers assumed
TO represent. to the detriment OF the
general good.
The virtual disappearance, by nat
ural economic processes, of the alb
normal.lies that have persisted, as the
long drawn ont aftermath OF the war,
VAS removed whatever justification
heir presence seemed To give for
governmental paternalism and for
,pcc'al measures Of relief for par
dcularly distressed classes a. best
.nrsa measures were merely scdatives
Washington telegraph., 1924-12-05

for psychological conditions and not
real remedies for economic condk
tions. To that extent they served
purpose. but there is no further
public good that they can serve.
With normal conditions once more es
tablished it should be the resolute
determination Of all business men to
resist any further effort at political
interference with economic processes.
The time is at hand for a thorough.
going return to free play OF private
enterprise and private initiative under
unhampered competitive conditions.
Government influence and political In
terference in respect to business
should be reduced to an absolute
minimum. We as bankers ask no
special privileges for ourselves.
Equally we are opposed to special
privileges for other groups at the
expense of the general welfare. The
experience of>the past few years has
been one of the greatest demonstrs-
tions in history of the validity Of the
view that the community interests Of
a people are best served by the maxi
mum degree. OF private enterprise and
private initiative with the minimum
Of government Fegulation.-Declara.

KAMRAM GROTTO
 WILL HEAD LIST
Class Of 2OOO Candidates Is Goal For Ger
 emOnial

Monthly business meeting of KamrRm Grotto, Mystic Order of Yelled Prophets will be held Thursday, July 1T, at g o'clock. In addition to an unusual amount of business matters to be dis posed of on account of the recent -su- preme council meeting at Indianapolis, an election will be held for the office of trustee made vacant by the death of the late Albert l.. Reese. A number of standing committees will make report.
 At this meeting definite plans will be made for the ceremonial session to be held Wednesday, Oct. 8, at which it is planned to have class of 2,OO0 or more. Monarch Jesse L. Hagy states that indications for this number being reached are exceedingly bright and that it is his inteption to make the occa- sion a notable one in the history of the Grotto.
 It is understood that a number of Grottos from neighboring southern states will be invited, including those located in Alabama. Also that several of the supreme council officers will be asked to attend. Mazda Grotto of Memphis, Tenn, who had the distinc- tion of having its cast present the dra- ma before the supreme council, are al- most sure, it is said, to be represent ed by a large contingent.
 Secretary Kirby states that several Grotto clubs throughout North Alaba- ma are all showing active interest in the approaching ceremonial and a large crowd of out-of-town prophets and near prophets are expected to be on hand. While it has not been decided as to whether there will be a parade or not, it is very probable that q special pro gram will be provided.
 With the slogan set at 2,OOO, Mon arch Hagy is calling on all the officers and prophets to assist in reaching this quota which if materiaiized will put Kamram on the top as the largest Grotto in the world. Its present mem bership is S,045 with the 2,OOO class will pass the 10000 mark. This will give the. lead to Kamram as Lonxi Grotto of New York, now boasts a membership of but 5000.

NRINERS PLAN
 MOBILE UNITS .s-c-t.
.Zamora Temple Making sss Plans For Fall
 Ceremonial

Plans for a ceremonial session of Zamora Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shriue, to be held in the early fall are under way, according to the announce ment cf r. H. c. Crelly, illustrious po- tentate, and a large class of candidates is expected. He states that several Of the Shrine clubs are already active Ill rounding. up candidates in several sec tions of north Alabama and that the membership committee is looking up the eligibles in the Birmingham district.
 In speaking of the activities of the Shrine, Potentate Crelly stated that the movement to locate a Shrineers' hos pital for crippled children in the Blr- mingham district was still under way, and that while the committee of the Imperial council on the location had not yet completed the program already au- thorized. the committee had the Blr- mingham hospital in mind and that he felt assured of its ultimate location here.
 Dr. Crelly stated that in addition to. the building of hospitals the Imperial council had approved of the organiza- ton of mobile units which will move from place to place wherever the serv- sice of the unit is required. He has re- ceived the following communication from the board of trustees of the Shriners' hospital.
 Mobile units, each composed of a chief surgeon and staff of nurses, will be organized in the near future to work in the sparsely settled regions of the Rocky mountain district, in the south ern mountains and in western Canada, it is announced by the board of trustees of the Shriners Hospitals for Crippled Children, who have charge of this great charitable work of the Mystic Shrine.
 The success of the first mobile unit, which has been at work in the Hawai- ian Islands for more than year, led the board to decide upon this form of organization for the mountain districts. It was held that the erection of expen- i. sive hospital buildings would not be ! justified, as the number of crippled children within reach of them might be exhausted within few years. By the mobile unit system, with movable bases, the treatment can be taken to the child, and the work can be begun much sooner.
