BANOUiLDil SOLD,
TO COMMISSIONERS
Deposit Claims Held by Tran
sylvania County Traded
For The Property
The Brevard Bank building, located
on the corner of Caldwell and Main
streets has been acquired by the coun
ty of Transylvania in a deal with
the liquidating agent of the bank, the
county trading' all deposit claims
against the defunct Brevard banking
company, approximating $550,000.t*0;
in return for the building.
The deal was made by the county,
commissioners and Pat Kimzey, liqui-|
dating agent and attorney for the (
bank, with approval of the commis-|
sioncr of banks, and has been ap-1
proved by Judge Michiel Schenck, j
resident judge of the Superior court, j
Deeding of the bank building to the,
commissioners is in settlement of all,
claims of the county against the Bre-,
vard Banking company, L. V. Sigmon,
county accountant, and Pat Kimzey,
liquidating agent, started,-. However,
the county still holds for collection
collateral notes that were placed as
deposit guarantee with the county in
the approximate amount of $200,000,
Mr. Sigmon said.
Settlement of this claim of the
county against the bank reduces lia
bilities of the institution from over
a million dollars to approximately
$500,000, Mr. Kimzey said, and means
that depositors will receive, when divi
dends are paid, twice as large as they
would have had the deal not been
made.
The liquidating agent reserved the
right to use the same offices in the
bank building as he now occupies un
til such time as the county sells the
building or liquidation of the bank
i3 completed.

BAD LUCK TO DRINK
NEAR THE CITY HALL
It’s bad luck to drink whiskey in
front of the town hall, and espec
ially is this true if Chief Freeman
and' Policeman Morris are in the same
vicinity.
It seems that two more or less dis
tinguished men of the town had im- i
bibed rather freely Saturday night i
and proceeded tji come out and see;
the bright lights and the hurrying;
throngs of people.
Both were rather heavily loaded
with the contraband stuff that has
considerable sale about Brevard, and
after bumping into “the law” decided
that they would go home. However,
the walk of several blocks evidently
cailed for a little extra steam so they
stopped in front of the city hall to
add a little fire to their already
steamed up boilers, s -
Chief Freeman already had his
weather eye open for the two gentle
men and when they began drinking
be began walking, and consequently
the two thirsty gents were soon land
ed in the county hotel to finish their
celebration with water. _

court room before his case was tried
] —in an automobile belonging to an
other man which be took with French
leave. Again captured, he was very
nice around the jail until a carload
of coal was being unloaded and a
r.cuttle hole proved too much tempt

SEEKS INDEPENDENT
PLA IN CONGRESS!
M. E. Hilford of Naples was in
Brevard Tuesday afternoon in inter-1
est of his campaign as an independent i
candidate for congress ,ond left sev
eral petitions in Brevard asking tnari
signers help him get his name on the
ballot, ten thousand voters being re-1
quired.
Or.e of Candidate Hilford’s plat
form plans is: “1 stand for the
nationalization of money, 1. e. tekmg
the money issuing power away from
the banko and restoring it to the
government exclusively. Backed oy
its store of precious metals and its
taxing powers, the government could
then provide adequate supplies for
all legitimate purposes, and enforce
its proper use as a emulating
medium by a tax on its circulating
privilege: thus making hoarding im
possible, and providing a tax that
the most clever plutocrat could not
evade. In this way the soidiers’ bonus
could readily be paid. The govern
ment could thus eliminate the vast
interest bearing bonded indebted
nesa, issuing money to all government
units without interest charges, on the
security of their bonds backed by a
definite but small tax levy for thfelr
retirement. This would save billions
of dollars in taxes. Both social and
economic justice demand the elimi
nation of tax exempt securities."
