IPREDICTS THE GREATEST ERA OF PROSPERITY IN U. S. HISTORY BY PHIL S, HANNA. Special Dispatch to The Star. DETROIT, November 18.—W. P. G. ! Harding, governor of.the Federal Re- | serve Board, who is in Detroit, de- clared today that when forzign pur- , chasing power and foreign exchange one of the greatest eras of prosperity in history. Gov. Harding compliment- ed the Detroit banks on the manner in which they had come through the period of depression, and figures made public today showed his compli- ments justified. Since October 6 de- posits have increased nearly $10,000,~ 000, while loans have decreased $8,- 000,000. Borrowing from the federal reserve banks have fallen from $20,- 000,000 to $13,000,600, and from the bankers’ standpoint conditions are growing more easy daily. The deposits of country banks in Detroit institutions are unchanged. This is attributed to unsatisfactory conditions of the fsrmers’ finances. Beet crop returns, which usually swell the deposits of country banks, are being used this year to pay run- ning expenses of the agriculturists. Country merchants say the volume of trade is fair, because of the imme- diate necessity for the farmers to re- 000 workers gare on part time, which is an encouraging sign.

Slump in Cotton Prices Slows Up Atlanta Trade BY RALPH SMITH. Special Dispatch to The Star. ATLANTA, Novemker 18.—The spot cotton situation in the southeast has hardened in the face of the recent de- cline in prices and offerings of the actual staple virtually have been withdrawn from the market. Holders are determined to await better prices before selling. The slump in cotton prices, coupled with unseasonable weather, has slowed up wholesale and Jobbing trade, but business conditions are not regarded. pessimistically. A permanent bureau has been or- ganized here for the purpose of pro- viding markegs for all farm commodi- ties produced in Georgla in commer- cial quantities. The bureau, which has been strongly supported by the country bankers and the State Bank- ers' Assoclation, will encourage the formation of selling organizations for such commodities as are not provided or. The watermelon, peach, sweet po- tato and cotton crops are being mar- keted largely through such means, and it 1s hoped to extend the plan to other commodities. Under the plan the bureau will aid the co-operative associations in finding markets for their products and will work out de- talls for extending financial help where needed.
