Two Valuahta Contributions. These two men hav offered valua ble eintributlons to the dlscusson of the proposed guars u tee of bank de po;s. Mr. tiage has set forth the pn-sent trend of bankers towards a closer watchfulness over all Inst tu tlons which meept the peipls money in trust, and has Indicated the exrt.-t means n hereby, under a guarantee law. bankers would do as now they do maim u un assm'iution empowered to look sharply '"to tlnanciul courerns w h ii h seem to be depart! .iff from sound methods. Ills referent f to the John R. Wslsh failure In Chicago was doubtless be tiuiw It was known to the country gi'iierally. having been given wide pub III Ity and therefor n.ost likely to at tract attention n an illustration. However, there ia acarcery a lovall ty wlieivln bankers in lute years have lint gone under toppling bunks and up held them by guaranteeing deposits wholly or In part, in order to help in the quelling of .popular distrust and the undermining of confidence In all banking Institutions, Na Drtay for tepoitora. It It quite spa re tit that nnder guarantee of deposits there would be no alteration of conditions alTevUog banks now. so far as four-cms espion age maintained hy one over another. The Important difference, however, would be tliat depositors would not bs subject to the iiunoylug. often dlsas trous, delays In getting their money which now they experience when banks fall. Hut, that fewer failures would oc cur surely would be one of the re sults of such a luw. Everyone knows thnt many runs are precpitated on bunks which are absolutely sound. Many a man, faithful, safe, conserva tive, conscientious lu curing for the money of his depositors, bus suffered runs caused by some rumor started through malice. Many an honest banker has hud his heart broken by senseless runs, and bus grouned In spirit os he realized that gross Injus tice has been done as reward for ear nest and able keeping of the trust to posed in blm by his depositors. The Raring Failure. When a dozen years ago, Rnrtnft Itrothers. of London sutpcudid, It wui due to that very esplouuge by other bunkers to whloii Mr. tiuge refers. The Darings had etn burked In many Soiith American enterprises, some of which were manifestly unsafe. The governors of the Hank of Eng land, sensing the danger, refuted to accept securities backed by them us basis for the Issuance of bunk notes under the custom of that country; that action never has been adversly criti cized In any country, although It has been discussed ever since the world over. Modern business Is conducted on the basis for the Issuance of bank notes tie actual money passes from h.ind to bund. Modern System of Credits. Tou go to your bank with a bundle, of checks and drafts and deposit them to your credit. Against that account thus opened, you draw checks. They puss Into the world of business, are accepted at face value, nud clr u late virtually as does gold, silver ami currency. If you pay your bills in checks, often you pass through weeks st a time when you have only a trifle of loose change in your pocket for street enr fare and the 8 mul I things you need from day to duy costing too little to bother to draw a check. "A check cancelled Is a voucher," has become a maxim lu the business world. Complication of the System. This complicates business and forces all banks to nssoclute themselves In clearing Louses, and probably the pub lic would be amazed were they to know at times how sharply the clear lug house committee looks Into meth ods employed by Its memters. In the panic that beg i: last October, funds were curried fr. 'junk to bank, taken ostentatiously through the front doors, that deiositors might know that other banks believed lu the soundness of the Institution which hud been at tacked by n run, and iwrformed al most every esscutlul of the guarantee system. Why? Simply becauap the modern' business system Is so complicated and so little actual money passes current thut each bank must It now that tin? others are properly safeguarding themselves and also that they arc permitting the car rying of accounts by depositors whose paper may utwuys be depended ou as worth face value. Beneath the Surface. - Ho beneath the surface, one could witness the clearing house associa tions eiumluing collateral, securities nud assets, uud often serving notice on u given bank that the association will require some change in methods on penalty of refusal longer to clear for thut bank. Hanks Out of the Association. How about bunks not lu the associa tion? Many perfectly sound bnnks are not directly lu the clearing house. They clear through another bunk which dues belong. Precisely the same rule applies to them, for, when need arises, the asso ciation serves notice on the member bank which clears for the non-asso-clutlon bank as to whut will have to be done; and It ia done promptly, too, In every Instance. Dank -Book Should lie Worth Face. The essence of the guarantee plan la that a bank book should tie worth Its face always. An entry In a pass book should not constitute the assumption of a risk hy the depositor and the giv ing of wide latitude to the banker. Such entry should be recognized as just as actual an asset aa a bank uote. Also, proper arrangements must be made for the continued espionage of bauki by other banks. Lastly, and quite aa Important, banking laws must be enforced; over certification niuit be stopped; loaning of funds In national bauks on obvious ly speculative schemes must cease; und other reforms must be wrought to Invest fhe banking system of the country with shut complete confidence which. If induced would put a stof) to all nervousness by depositors. NO SCARES THIS YEAR. "No one feara that Mr. Bryan's election would provoke an Indus- s trial, commercial and financial e cataclysm."
