CANCELS AFRICAN TRIP

London, Nov. 2S.-(R-Because
Of the illness Of King George, the
Prince Of Wales has cancelled his
African good will tour and is re-

The king today apparently was still

against pleurisy.
The press association was in
formed at Buckingham palace at 6
q. m. that his majesty was fairly
comfortable. This report was well
coined especially because general
medical opinion was that the king

GEORGIA BANK
CHAIN CLOSES
AFTER CRASH
State Banking Department
Examines Affairs of Eight
Institutions

Macon, Ca, Nov. 2s.-(P)-The
affairs Of eight middle Georgia
banks were in the hands of the state
banking department behind closed
doors today as sequel to the clos
ing of the Fourth National Bank Of
Macon Monday. The Macon bank
was their federal reserve agent.
In each case officers assured de-
positors of protection and an
nounced that reorganization and re-
opening would be effected as soon
as possible. Heavy Withdrawals
brought about by financial scare"
over the condition Of the Fourth Ma
tional were blamed in every instance.
Meanwhile the directorate Of the
Fourth National was busy arranging
conferences looking toward reorgan-
ization and recapitalization at
$75O,OO0 instead of $5OO,OOO, as at
present.
The largest of the eight institu-
tions closing yesterday was the Citi-
zens Bank of Fort Valley, capitalized
at 100000. The others had capital
listed between $4,000 and $4,000.
Macon and Fort Valley are among
the larger shipping centers in Geor-
gia's extensive peach-growing sec-
ton.
While officers Of the Fourth Ma
tional yesterday were issuing a
statement which said two-hour run
Monday was due to "baseless ru-
mors" connected with the collapse
of negotiations for sale of the in
stitution to Atlanta financiers, the
city commission was passing q reso-
luton of confidence in its officers
and directorate. The resolution
urged all citizens to adopt an atti-
tude Of confidence and cooperation.
An alteration over the closing of
the Fort Valley bank yesterday was
responsible for knife wounds which
today confined George Slappey. a
business man of that city, to his bed.
DR.. w. S. White, mayor Of Fort VAL
ley, was the other participant, sew
eral witnesses said.
No charges have been placed
against the mayor. The encounter
was said to have been preceded by
a friendly argument" over policies
Of the city in depositing municipal
funds. Neither was interested in
the management Of the bank.

Graveyard Place
to Earn Livelihood

Columbus, O., Nov. 28.-(AP)-
To Weslev McCafferty, a cemetery
is more than merely a grave yard.
It is place to earn an easy. liveli-
hood in which the gross returns are
all gain.
McCafferty was recently released
from Ohio penitentiary after serving
a sentence for nonsupport. Being
ambitious, he set out to make a liv-
ing.
A nationally known soap concern
wanted a list Of prospective GUS
toners to whom it could send SAM
pies. The donor of the list received
bar of soap for each name he SUBJ
mitted, so McCafferty went to GEM
etery in Urbana, near his home, and
compiled an extensive list. Soon he
had enough soap to last a life time
but added to it by calling at the
postoffice and collecting the samples
mailed his clients. Then he sold the
soap.
Encouraged, McCafferty answered
an advertisement to obtain sigma
lures petitioning the city of Urbana
for improvements. For q day and
half he laboriously copied sigma
lures in neat rows, but some one no
ticed they were in alphabetical or
der and investigated.
YESTERDAY he was returned to the
penitentiary to serve the remainder
of his sentence for violation of his
parole.

Paris, Nov. 28.-(AP)-With the
lowlands of Belgium and Holland
flooded, another storm appeared to
be brewing over western Europe to-
day.
Mountainous seas prevented pilots
from reaching ships off the French
coast with the result that many ves-
sells were forced to remain tossing
outside Havre, Bordeaux and other
ports.
Deceived by temporary lull in
the storm, 10 fishing boats put out
to sea from Grauduroi, little Medi-
terranean port. They were caught
in squall. Eight got back to port.
but two sank and three men were
drowned.
In the low countries of Belgium
and Holland, where dykes were
down, the waters Of the sea swept
over wide stretches, demolishing
houses, flooding fields and drown-
ing livestock.
The death toll in Holland alone
was 80. including 27 members of the
crew Of the Italian steamer Salento
which went to pieces off Zaandvoort
almost in sigh. of would be rescuers,
There were six feet of sea water
in many places in Belgium and sew
eral weeks will be needed to drain
off the flood. Small gaps in the
dykes were being repaired and sand
bags were ready to stem any new
inland rush Of :he sea.
The Belgian towns of Termonde.
Gremberger and Moerseke were al
most under water and provisions
were becoming scarce for their
beleaguered inhabitants. In Ant
werp restaurants and hotels were
running low on flood supplies.
There was famine Of drinking wa
ter, due to the breaking of pipes un-
dermined by the flood, and water
sold for four cents ! quart.
