A -Step Toward
PIEHARD prohibitionists are deploring vigorously
"ahd vociferously the coming" of 3.2 per cent beer
and wine. Most of the country, however, looks on
it as the -most forward step toward real temperance
that has been achieved since the days of the saloon.
That it will wipe out moonshining- and bootlegging',
put an end to strong clrink, obliterate gangdom and
crime, prove a panacea for all the nation's ills these
are exaggerated claims. But there is little doubt in
.the ..minds of. the maj o ri ty t )f thin king people t hat it
will greatly-improve -conditions -as they have existed
since decanters were taken off the sideboard and men
were forced" to dnrhVih seeret. - - ....

zealots would leave that
meaning of the word temperance is "habitual nodera
tion," not abstinence. The new beer is an experiment,
just as prohibtion was, and is etjiially. as noble.'
A False. Impression
' pOMMEXTING on the predicament of the Tal
-Mulah Falls Railroad, a nieniber' Of the Georgia
Public Service iC'ommission is quoted as saying:
"Of course, the way to save this railroad is for the
folks to use it; but -my information is that nearly
tailers, :mvn-tH'TWinieks a "-hati I i i'ea r ly-- all. - i
theirJreighL" ' ..
How, we would like to know, did the commissioner
lycQHiiMu:cssiafi 'Who .is his in fonnanti.. .Who
ever he is, he is working a great injustice to the ter
ritory served by the "T. F." Certainly be is ignorant
of the railroad's affairs.
The people of Franklin and oilier communities
along the line are awake to the necessity of using the
railroad and for the past six- months, have been using
it. more extensively than at any time since the high
way-to 'Atlanta was paved.
Official t ra ffie i'igu res o f t he road refiec t t he s i 1 u a
tion. 'In: March, this year, the line handled -10. more
cars than during the same-month last-year,- January
and February" business also showed large increases
over traffic for the same months last : car. ' .
As far. as Franklin is concerned, .the charge that
shippers are' using their own trucks instead of the
railroad to haul freight is a gross exaggeration if noi
a fabrication out of the whole cloth.' y
THE BANK CRISIS
THE Bank of Franklin faces a crisis; yet it is not itisunniruntable.
The truth is. according to. those close in touch with the' bank's
'Tiffaif8T"itsnssrts, pfod -hmttth-w-t-4mim'ditrtv4kiHl-,-H'-xeevd-4i-s-4itt-
bilities by PP." : : T""" ' "
' In normal times, the bank could rediscount its paper and continue
functioning. Redisc'ounting is now out of the. question.'' The bank, ,if
it is to be saved, must lcmk to its stockholders and .depositors.' '
The stockholder's are raking and scraping tryinu to meet their st h-I
.assessments. ' Most of them are having, great difficulty, "even though
some are offering to mortgage their homes
Trie majority of the depositors have done- all they ran to help the
bank (and at the same time helping themselves) by "trading out''
their certificates' of , deposit. The bank, however, still owes about
$37,000 on deposits. If the holders of these deposits will trade, either
ft.A-t1y with the bank or with stockholders, the bank soon will be in
position to reopen. . On the other hand, if depositors insist on liquida
tion of the bank, there is no telling when they wil get their money
hw much they will pet. Current estimates are that under forcer
liquidation deposits -will' be worth less than 'SfXents on the dollar.
Thii does not reflect on the soundness of the b$rik but, rather, illu
itratei the coitlipess ftf receivership.

Cain was at least half right when
he denied, 'by implication, that lie
was his brother's keeper. His sin -seemed
to have been just that; he
was angry because his brother was
doing things differently from him
and getting by with it. Being a
farmer, he naturally thought farm
products the best kind of an offer-
ing, and he was terribly upset that
the shepherd's offering was accept-'
