is going to put that squarely .on
their shoulders.

whcther. the-President could bal

avoid a general tax increase. But

on recovery from the business re

the money brokerage firm of D
H. Blair & Co., finds that bank
ers, brokers and individuals in
rapidly increasing numbers, are
re-discovering money brokers. His
firm has been in that business
since 1904
"The immediate reason for this
re-discovery," he says, "is the
tremendous excess of funds in the
money market."
Seasonal activities draw out the
banks' . funds and when these
loans are terminated money flows
back into the financial repositor
ies
"Inasmuch as -the American
economy is anything but static,
with its population movements,
its geographical adjustments, and
its science-created new frontiers,"
Miller says, "some communities
find themselves with an excess of
funds as a chronic condition, and
have need of the money broker.
i.VThroug the money broker,
these peaks and valleys, these
chronic conditions are leveled off
to the advantage of the borrower

In size these banks range from
the comfortable county-seat insti

credit agencies.
"Very recently," Miller notes,
"others, including a leading New
York bank, have become aware
of the need for money brokerage
services to the hundreds of banks
across tne country, many of
whom became aware of this asset
to the financial system for the
first time during the recent re
cession which contributed so
heavily to the glut of funds.
'As more and more banks
throughout the nation become ex
perienced users of the services of
the money broker, his role must
necessarily expand. And it is our
conviction that the expansion we
saw in 1958 will, inevitably con
tinue and become of greater use-
fullness to a greater number of
banks in 1959.
