New York, it asserts, will 1 have to spend billions of dollars and use the utmost scientific precisions in mapping its growth and laying out its con veniences.

Hut as the New Republic asks lias New York not perhaps passed the point where it can remedy its frightful ooiigeslion and crowding? Will it be humanly possibly for (he city lo adopt a plan of such tremendous scope and spend such enormous sums of money in order to provide for its own future and, if it does, will not the great increase in popula tion bring about crowding and congestion anyway, in spite of all restrictions and .safeguards? it may be that it is loo late for New York to do anything about it.

Buying and Selling Your Money When you deposit money in the bank, you are "selling" the use of that money to the bank. The bank pays you for your money pays you in service in the case of a checking account, pays you in interest in the case of savings or certifi cates of deposit. Like the merchandise sold by a store owner, the bank in turn sells the use of your money and the money of hundreds of other depositors to people needing and deserving loans. If satis factory credit has been established, people wish ing to buy the use of money for a stated period of time can get it in the same way that they can buy merchandise on credit in various stores. Your bank is a business institution. Money and financial service make up the merchandise it has to sell. Like a store, it must "buy" goods before it has any to sell. The price it pays you for your money is based on safety, on your last ing satisfaction. The merchandise slogan, "Sat isfaction or Your Money Back," always applies when you sell your money to the bank. 153 mnum Year Of Friendly Service" it had become disabled and was drifting to sea.
