SOUTHERN TO ADD PHONES
ON TWO IMPORTANT LINES

Washington, D. C.-The use of the
telephone for dispatching trains, dis
placing the telegraph, will be extend.
ed by the Southern Railway System
over two of its important lines
Meridian, Miss, to New Orleans, La,
202.2 miles; and Asheville, N. c., to
Spartanburg, S. c., 69.4 miles-giv.
ing the Southern a telephone system
covering 2,36S miles of road, accord.
ing to an official announcement.
Authority has been given. for the
construction of the necessary circuits
and the installation of telephone
equipment. Material has been order.
ed and construction will be begun as
soon as it is received and forces can
be organized.
Construction of the circuits be-
tween Ashevlile and Spartanburg will
give the Southern telephone service
three ways out of Asheville, lines be-
tween Asheville and Salisbury and
between Aheville and Knoxville hav-
ing been completed in 1924. The
line between Meridian and New Or
leans viii give the Southern contiau-
Gus telephone connection between
Cincinnati and New Orleans and be-
tween Washington and New Orleans
via Atlanta and Birmingham.
The telephone has number of ad-
vantages over the telegraph for dis
patching trains. 1t is faster and
more accurate and affords opportuni-
ty in times of emergency for dis
patchers to talk directly to train con-
ductors. Its use on the Southern has
been found so satisfactory that it has
been extended over nearly all lines
handling heavy traffic.

there are thirteen thousand members
in the eight credit unions composed
OF employees of this company and the
original $3.75 has increased and mul-
tiplied to the rather significant and
startling sum of $1250,OOO.
Mr.. Edward A. Filene of Boston
says: Statistics indicate that the
average saver in the United States
saves more than the average saver in
other countries. This naturally
would be expected. Statistics also
indicate that as compared with other
much less favored nations, the num-
be rof savers is relatively small. In
other words, the individual who can
save an appreciable amount is well
taken care of. The acute need is
greatly to increase the number of
small savers. The credit union is de-
signed to meet this specific need"
The examination of recent report
emanating from the Russell Sage
Foundation resulting from an inves-
tigation of usury shows that the pre-
vailing practice of salary buying by
loan sharks costs the wage Garner
from 260Tc to 36009e for credit and
that the so-called "big four" operat-
ing from Atlanta, with 16O agency
companies. working in the state have
made Atlanta the headquarters for
this particular sort of usurious small
loan business and a fruitful field for
these pound of flesh individuals. At
lanta thus would seem to be a logical
sport for the credit union. There
are here several industrial group
credit unions, functioning advan-
tageously to their members. 1t is the
type of welfare work that should en-
list the sincere attention of the in
dustries of Georgia.
The participation in credit unions
teaches the members not only thrift
but economy, self-reliance and cor
rect business habits, all of which are
attributes to good citizeship and re-
fleet directly to the distinct profit,
also, to the city of Atlanta and the
great state of Georgia.

Ia long substitute for shorter but
more expensive term) to take it to
the bank, the amount is too small to
interest the ordinary forms of bank
ing. To meet the situation, we have
the credit unions.
In the space allotted, it is possible
to touch upon generalities only.
Briefly, the credit union is coopera-
tive society organized within a spe-
cific industrial group for the purpose
of promoting Thrift among the men,
bers of the group and to create credi
tresources fo rits members at legiti-
mate rates of interest.
Arrangements are made by the
group credit unions whereby the
members may deposit as little or as
much as they wish and may in times
of stress borrow from the fund thus
created, at lawful rates of interest.
1t is an open question whether the
habit of thrift inculcated by partici-
patton in such an organization or the
avoidance of usurious salary loans is
the greater blessing arising from
credit unions.
1t is necessary to cite only one
case, to show to what Importance a
credit union may attain. Seven years
ago fifteen employees of the New

for one share and putting in twenty

their attention on Eddie Buell.,

bantam. Ever since hev first
showed at + Kenilworth this
little fellow has been the idol
of local fans.
His ring experiences are
tinged with tragedy. Born in

ing as a body builder. AS a
boy he used to journey all the
way to Baltimore to take, les
sons from Spike Webb, later

prior to that in charge of play

When the war broke Buell.
Joined the Navy. He re-enlist-
ed after the war and, taking
up boxing professionally, was
soon a main eventer on the
Pacific Coast. He fought
such good ones as Vic Foley,
Doc Smell, Mushy Callahan,
Jimmy McLarnin and others in
main events at Vancouver,
Seattle, San Francisco and Los
Angeles.
In bout with Mushy Gala
han Buell. stopped a punch on
the temple which totally ruined
the sight Of one eye. Buell.
finished the bout but left the
ring with one eye gone. His
naval career was ruined. He
is now a pensioner.
His ring career seemed to
also be finished as he was
barred by the California State

There was small cheering after
that Sunday defeat. In the first
