Rock Island merchants plan new department to curb delinquents
The Rock Island Business Men's association aims to form a Credit Men's department next month to monitor delinquents more closely under the control of the existing organization.

The move follows near closures of Christmas Eve as stores debated coordinated action with Moline merchants. A Rock Island National Bank stockholders meeting is set for Jan 12, 1915 at 3:30 p m to elect directors.
