That if the farm loan bank im estab

Raleigh is the belief of A. E. Tate, of
this city, who returned last night from
the state capital where he went to at
tend tlie hearing by the special commis
sion of the government investigating
proposed locations and Inducements, ver
bal in nature. If the states bordering on
North Carolina are included in the pro
posed district in which the hank will op
erate, there is little, doubt in Mr. Tate's
mind as to where the bank will be lo
cated,; as Raleigh' location in that ease
wolud be central
Virginia had a number of representa
tives at the Raleigh hearing and they
put in some mighty good licks for North
Carolina, ' it is said, and the 'men from'
the adjoining state were earnest in their
request that the proposed bank be locat
ed in North Carolina. This would, it is
reasoned, enable the bank to serve the
Virginia people and would, at the same
time, insure Virginia being included in
the district. This would, in turn, insure
the bank for Raleigh, so it is stated. But,
if states'-further southT are. included in
the bank district withVNo'rth Carolina,
then Raleigh's or Charlotte's or any oth
er city's chances in the State are very
slim.. ; - ' .;: :: '
