LINK BOB CHIffiCN'S NAME IN MEMPHIS BANK CRASH
\Elks Plan For Educational Week
MEMPHIS, Term., March 3ft — Apparently in a determined effort to bring double pressure to bear to dethrone Bob Church as a po Utica! leader in this state strenuous efforts are being made to link him with the failure of the Fraternal Solvent Savings Bank. Despite the fact that three months have passed since the Hosing of the institution’s doors on December 18, 1927, criminal action has been started against but three persons, although many are alleged to have been directly or indirectly responsible for the col-
apse of the bank.
State bank examiners claim that the tangled affairs of the bank was the worst they have known in the r state. Irregularities involving over half a million dollars were found. The nickels, dimes and pennies of

At the same time a new note was made out by Hayes for $3,158.02 and alleged bogus entries of other notes debited the Citiz-

The mgst recent, expression of interest has been the acceptance' of Dr. Jones’ invitation to be commencement day speaker by Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. In reply to Dr. Jones’ invitation, Mr. Rockefeller wrote: i have been a long time in replying to your yetter of January 25th, asking me to give the commencement address at Fisk university on June 6th of this
year.
In view of the pressure of duties and responsibilities which are always upon me, J have felt I ought* not to accept this invitation. On the other hand, my interest in the colored race and in the problems which it involves is urging me to say yes. Because of the splendid work which you are doing at Fisk university, and because under your leadership this institution gives promise of being “an in- i strumentality of widespreapd service to the whole colored race, 1 am yielding to my impulses and disregarding my judgment and am going to accept , with pleasure, your invitation
