The movement to raise among the
people of Anderson a contribution to
the Belgian Christmas fund was be
gun several weeks ago. After sever
al meetings at ttoQ chamber of com
merce for the purpose of deciding
u pon ways and means of raising the i
funds it was agreed to have printed a
number of contribution envelopes for
distribution among tbe congregations
of the city and county churches. At
the first meeting, for this purpose the
mangemont of the new Paramount
motion picture theatre agreed to glvo
a portion of its receipts on tbe open
ing day.
When arrangements had been com
pleted for carrying on the canvass the
pastors of all churches and superin
tendents of all Sunday schools In tb.4
city and county were invited to a
meeting. Arrangements wero made for
distrubuting the envelopes and col
lecting them and turning them Into
the committee, at a meeting which
was to have been held at tbe chamber
of commerce last Friday night For
some reasons several members of the
committee did not report at the meet
ing set for Friday night, and it was
decided to postpone the matter until
Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
At this hour yesterday afternoon
practically,the entire committee gath
ered at the chamber of commerce and
canvassed the results of the campaign.
In addition to members of the com
mittee there wero others present at
the meeting who were of the opinion |
that at this meeting the matter of pro
viding some means of relieving local
conditions would be brought up. How
ever, na the mayor had been called
upon to take this matter in charge,

ATLANTA LETTER
ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 21.?A banner
crop of whiskers is predicted for
Georgia next year by R E. Limbaugb,
chairman of the State board of bar
ber examiners. Mr. Limbaugh is ex-'
seedingly worried over the failure of 1
thousands of barbers to take the State |
c anil nation demanded by the last leg
Is. aturo, pay their fees, and prove!
the.nselves sanitary, harmless and not |
too .""M of conversation.
"Geor^te citizens will have an un-1
usually large crop of whiskers," said
Mr. Limbaugh. "Because she will bo |
s barberless race. Out of 4,500 bar
bers only 300 have applied for li
censes, and no business can be done
without a license except In jails,
State prisons and towns of less ihan
r>,000 population, where whiskers run
rampant anyway."
Tho barber who gets in before tho
first of the year can cop cut a license
for two dollars, but after that the
bargain sale is off and five hucks is
the price.
The Cotillion Club of Atlanta, the
ultra swell dancing set, has chosen
Raymon Hitchcock In "Tho Beauty
Doctor," for its annual theatre party
Ihis year. Every season the Cotillion
Club has one big theatre night, when
it takes half the first floor at the At
lanta theatre and goes in a body to ]
enjoy it, leaving after the curtain falls j
for a dance at one t J the hotels.
The Atlanta has an unusually good |
booking for just after the holidays.
"Potash and Perlmutter" is coming I
next week, with Billle Burke and
George Arllss and "The Little Cafe" |
In the near future.
Georgia Sbriners, and members . of I
the order throughout the country are
greatly pleased at the ruling handed
down by Judge H. L. Patterson of the
Blue Ridgo circuit restraing a negro |
organization from using the name. In;
Blgnia, emblems and other belongings I
of the Ancient Arabic Order of the |
Nobles of the Mystic Shrine.
"The negro organization calls itself |
Babban Temple, Ancient Egyptian -Ar
abic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic I
Shrine of North and South America
and their jurisdiction, thereby giving |
a few oxtra words for good measure
and pleasing the African taste forj
polysyllabic nomenclature.
Judge Patterson" acted because all
the Atlanta judges are members of
the order, or have relatives' In Yaarao
temple.
The negro shrine was organized in |
Washington in 1902. The local tem
ple was chartered in l?08 but local
Sbriners heard little of it until after
the recent national Shrine convenMcn
here, when the negroes became -offen
sively conspicuous. Thu petition is
based on the fact that the negro or
der uses an exact imitation of tho
Shrine badge, ubcb the same names
for officers of the temple, the same fez
and the same emblems used by the
Chief Beaver of the. Atlanta police
department does not believe all the
stories of hold-ups and burglaries (hat
are reported to him. He doeB not
think the* "wave of.crime Is so bad as
it Is painted by the sensational press.
The chief quotes two Instances
where reported hold-ups were investi
gated and* it. was found. that 'the "vic
tims" were financially ' short and had
framed lip stories to account for the
money being missing. It lu also a
common belief that at least' two re
ported.' crimes recently laid to "bur
glars" were npt .really, burglaries, but
one clearly the sulgide of ? man deep
ly involved financially and i!he other
tho visit of a'young society man to a
home whero he had ' no business,
which resulted.in hls/shpoiing by .the
head of the family.
"The worst of tho pvesent depres
sion has passed," says Robert F. Mad
dux; chairman of tho Georgia commit
tee which will have charge of the
State's share of the Wade cotton pool
01 *185,000.000. Mr. T?addok,: wb??
vl?o pros?d??l o? th?i Atr.^r!c?n Na
tional bank, has just returned from a
trop to Washington,'where he Joined a
conference on details of. the , loan
plan. .
Mr. Maddox said $69,000,000 of. the
fuhd had been received but It would
be the latter part of next week be
fore the full amount wouid be ready
for disposal.
"We were disappointed to learn that
tho committee would lend only five
sents on cotton instead of six cents,
the original idea," said Mr. Maddox.
'Neither did we understand that the
borrower would be expected to put up
ihrce per cent, of the loan as a guar
antee fund and to cover expenses.
However, it must be remembered that
[his one million dollars which 1b sub
scribed through the north and west is
to be loaned in the South and if cot
tou should decline below six cents per
pound the lending banks would have
no authority to cal for additional mar
gin; and in banking circles twenty per
sent, markin is not considered unrea
sonable."
Mr. Maddux sold the worst feeling
In New Y?Vk wns over and financiers
Baw Indications that things would be
much better soon.
Through the persistent offorts of
Governor Slaton it has been definitely
determined that the bonds of State
and county officers in Georgia do not
require government war tax stamps,
despite the ruling of Collector Blalock
of Atlanta otherwise. The governor,
who is a Arm believer in State's
rights, doubted the authority of tho
collector to impose the tax and by go
ing straight to headquarters secured
a ruling In favor of the State as offi
cials.
The following letter to the governot
from W. H. Osborn, commissioner ot
internal revenuo at Washington, ex
plains Itself:
"His Excellency Governor John M.
Slaton, Atlanta, Ga.
"I have the honor of acknowledging
the receipt of your letter of the 10th
instant la which you Inquire whether
bonds given by State and county offi
cials guaranteeing tho faithful per
formance of their duties are subject
to the stamp tax under the act of Oc
tober 23, 1914.
"In reply you are informed that the
bonds given to tt State ot county by
officers thereof, guaranteeing the
faithful performance c f their duties,
arc not subject to tax.
"Seimectfully,
"W. H. Osborne,
"Commissioner."
The controversy started in Georgia
when a clerk in the executive depart
ment cajled up the office of the inter
nal revenue collector in Atlanta and
inquired whether official bonds were
liable to the tax. He was informed
that they were. The governor felt
that tho tax waa an .unnecessary bur
den upon county officers, and wrote a
letter to Washington to gain an offi
cial ruling. Meanwhile the governor's
ofiice was flooded wltb inquiries from
anxious county officials. They have
been saved a total of about one thous
and dollars by the ruling obtained by
the governor.
Tbe dum-dum bullet, which has
caused so much talk in the European
war, has made its appearance In At
lanta. Jasper Dcvore of Geneva,' N. T.
was picked up in tho night by a lo
cal detective and accused of being a
traveiiug blind ?gfer. When he was
searched a gun was found, loaded
with' cartridges which closely resem
ble the notorious "dum-dums" which
the English are accused of using In
tho war. Devore says he bought the
gun in a pawnshop, already loaded, so
it will be hard to trace the origin of
the objectionable bullets. The matter
will hardly reach The Hague tribunal.

NEW YORK. Dec. 21.?Such hope as va
the financial district may have drawn m<
from lust week's decision granting toi
eastern railroads a general freight D'
rate advance, was largely dissipated , be
today when it became known that the ;
'ennsylvania Public Servico Commis-1

in coal freight rates. While officials I
of the roads professed to regard t'.e ]
decision as entirely local, speculat'.vc :g"
Wall street evidently received it fa a . ^e
less favorable spirit. Reading and ce
Lehigh Valley shares fell to new 13w

further unsettleinent and lower prices. ; Jj?
The decline was led Uy United States . f7

1-8 above its minimum figure. i0.11

has been no recent trading in these i-ve
stocks, most ot which have undergone!
dividend revisions during the closures
of the exchange and since its reopen- j f,

During tho day's business, which ~?
was far below normal, some of the ?l
equipment shares and Bethlehem ?*
steel preferred showed signs of de- j19
mand at higher prices, but this group |
fell back with the entire list at the
close, which was weak. |St
Much of the day's news was of a
hopeful tenor. Money rates were eas
ier, some special 30-day loans made
at 3 1-2 per cent. Exchange on Lon
