MANY STATE BANKS
MAY JOIN RESERVE
MEMBERSHIP IN FEDERAL SYS-
TEN MAY BE INCREASED AS
RESULT OF BANK FAILURES
IN GEORGIA.

Atlanta, Ga.-The Federal Re
serve System may soon have an in
creased membership among the state
banks as result of recent bank fail
ures in Georgia, according to Atlanta
bankers.
Bankers have urged the state banks
to join the federal reserve system,
not only for the purpose of drawing
about them the strong arms of pro-
lection against any storm that might
break, bat to assure for the deposit
ors whose money banks administer, a
system of rigid inspection, and other
governmental control measures, that
establish security and guarantee in
tegrity of management.
It is claimed that many state banks
refuse to go in the federal reserve
system because they want to avoid
the rigid inspection and control, gov
erning the handling of deposits, that
the reserve system invokes.
The Atlanta Constitution, in COM
menting upon recent bank failures,
takes the position editorially that
every bank should join the federal re-
serve system.
"The lessons recently are not only
that every bank should join the re-
serve system, but that the people,
whose money on deposit makes banks
possible, ought to demand of their
banks the protection against insecure
ty that the federal system guaran-
tees" says the Constitution. "And
if they cannot get that they should
seek as places Of deposit only such
banks as will assure that protection. P"

FRIENDS OF HOLDER
RUN HIS CAMPAIGN
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR DE-
VOTES HIS TIME TO WORK IN
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT IN
STEAD OF ELECTIONEERING.

Atlanta, Ga.-John N. Holder, of
Jefferson, Ga, Chairman of the State
Highway Board and a candidate for
governor of Georgia, occupies the
unique distinction of making no per-
sonal campaign nor of doing any
electioneering whatever. His friends
are doing all the campaign work
while Mr.. Holder himself works at his
present job of running the highway
apartment. These friends, who have
perfected an active organization
throughout the state, assert with a
high degree of confidence that Mr..
Holder will be nominated at the Sep
tember primary "just as sure as guns
IRON"
Chairman Holder, rather than Can
didate Holder, it would seem, says
that the Highway Department expect
to finish hard surfaced road from
Atlanta to Macon this year, and from
Macon to the Florida line next year.
Much of the work on both sections
has been completed, and there are
only a few missing links to fill in, it
was stated.
The chairman points out that with
the constantly increasing revenues of
the department it will be able to do
more work and contract for more
miles at the time, instead of letting
short mileage contracts as heretofore.
AS chairman of the state highway
board, a post he has held for more
than four years, Mr.. Holder has con-
sistently advocated policy of road
development and construction, insist
ing upon the "pay as you go" plan
instead of issuing state bonds in large
amounts to provide system of hard
surfaced roads in Georgia.
The bond proposal was defeated in
the state legislature last spring and
Mr.. Holders friends throughout the
state urged him to become the anti
bond candidate to carry the issue be-
fore the people and thus obtain di-
rect expression from the public on
the important question.

is a creamery available in Georgia to
every farmer in the state and all the
farmer needs is a shipping can or
two and preferably cream sepa-
rator.
Without going into great detail the
first step toward quick solution to
this ''home production" and "home
market" problem is likewise a
''home" matter, namely, county and
community organization as the neces-
sary first step toward organizing pro-
duction and marketing of the COM
modities best adapted to the soil and

local organizations provides the meet
ing place of the minds of the farmers

production of the necessary quantity
and quality of product to insure a
profitable market in connection with
other similar products from other Sec
tions. With this as the first step
come sthe possibility of statewide or
even sectionwide cooperative organ
izations of commodities so as to elm
mate production and distribution
wastes and narrow the margin be-
tween the cost of production and the
price to the consumer, which after all
is the problem of society as a whole
as relates to agriculture and manu-
facture and commerce. It is this
phase of the problem that the Geor-
gia Association is attacking.
