('am den'a two financial institution*,
The |*V?t National Bank and the
Bank of Camden, are open for buaine.se*
ami both report extremely .satisfactory
deposit*. While the Bank of
Camden ie open for the present on a
restricted _banijrr~depoeita are being
made frwy. Under the government
regulation the.se new deposits must be
kept separate ami in cash in the bank
vaults or on deposit with the Federal
Raaerve Bank, so that deposits in that
institution are a? safe as it is possible
for bank deposits to be in any finan- J
ciaf institution in America. We ui>-1
dersUuul that arrangements are going
forwar<i to the end that the present
restrictions may be raised and
this strong, long-established banking
institution may soon resume operations
fully. This will be good news
to the many business people and
friends of the institution in this oom4
munity. Many busineases and many
men hereabout owe their success to
the Bank of Camden. Kstabliahod j
back in 1888 it has served the people
faithfully and well and it would have)
been a great blow to this community
if it had been compiled to cease,
operations.
First National Bank opened wholly j
unrestricted and has been doing at
nourishing business. The many friends j
of that institution are glad to know
it is prospering so well even (
under the trying conditions through ^
which the country has been passing/
The renewed confidence of the people
generally has been well shown by
the dfjM>sits in the banks hero since
their reopening. Around $100,000.00.
that had been in hiding has already
come out. and been poured into the
channels of trade through the medium
of our banks ami many new deposits
are c-oning in daily. There is a gen- j
oral feeling that conditions are improving
and will continue to improve.'
The clouds are lifting. Faces aro
brighter and everyone has new hope.'

Capital Observations
(Special Correspondence)
W?nhii)gton, March 21.- -Ooe of
several precedent* broken by -President
Roosevelt was his appointment
at a woman in hb cabin**, Fiancaa
Perkins, who had served as industrial
commissioner of the state of New
York, a position similar <o that which
she now holds. Iter deal* nation,
while not unexpected, was made in
spite of the determined opposition of
the American Federation of I^tbor,
which organ nation earnestly advocated
the appointment of one of its membeis.
In ail former instances the position
has been filled by an actual
repjesntative of labor and it is cor-1
rectly contended th*t the present sec-1
retary tranpot be so regarded. Presiijlent
Green of the Federation says
that "labor cqti never become iec4on-.
[died to the selection made." However,
there is no evidence that desired
coopeiatiom will be withheld. Although
retaining her maiden name,
Miss Perkins is married, her husbund
being Paul Wilson, an efficiency engineer
of ability.
The drastic new economy bill became
a law when the president affixed
his signature on Monday. Upon
the adjustment of differences between
the senate and the house of representatives
in conference nearly all opposition
melted away. It is estimated
that government expenditures will be
reduced about a half billion dollars a
year. The pay of Federal employees
will be cut not exceeding fifteen per
cent, and extensive Curtailments will
be made in pensions and allowances
going to veterans. Officials will be
ready within about two weeks to put ^
into effect the provisions of the law.
Opposition to the measure cam? principally
from new members of Congress
connected with or who considered
themselves obligated to the American
Legion, but the patriotic att&udo
of the organization nullified efforts
to balk the necessary reduction
>f vast expenditures for veterans. So
far as government employees ure
concerned, in these times of dire;
stress, they may well consider them-;
selves fortunate to retain their positions,
if at a small reduction, a-s compared
with conditions connected with
business and labor.
After fifteen days fiom the date of
passage the law will become effective
legalizing the manufacture and sale
of boor in states which are not totally
dry. It is estimated. that sorely
needed revenue to the extent of about
$lf>0.000.000 annually will be realized
for tin' national treasury. A yearly
| tax is imposed of $1,000 on breweries,
$100 on wholesalers and $20 on
i eta ilea's. In addition states may levy
such tax as may be decided upon as
well as make regulations regarding
, the traffic. The new law is skillfully
framed with a view .?f permitting no
(ground for a tost of its constitutiunlality.
It does not define the alcoholic
c? nient which would be intoxicating
and therefore illegal, but merely repea's
that portion of th" prohibition
law whicl# has penalized the manufacture
and sale of any beverage with
mere than one-half of one per cent
of aicohol. Accordingly there will be
a vie lation of law only when any beverage
henceforth contains more than
3.2 per cent of alcohol.
When the Democrats took over the
control of the senate upon the convening
of the proisvent extra session of
congress Senator Smith became
chairman of the important commit.tee
on agriculture. Senator Byrnes,
whose limited length of service did
not entitle him to become the heed of
a larger committee, was designated
as chairman of the committee on audit
and control of contingent expenses.
He is also a member of the
powerful appropriations committee.
President Roosevelt is having from
both Democrats and Republicans unprecedented
and thus far overwhelming
suppoit in congress, where many
or his predecessors ha%e been badly
handicapped. Ho wisely adopted the
