Bankers Can Help
Bring Business Back
Says Finance Expert
Eugene Meyer, Jr., Managing Dir
ector of the War Finance Corporation,
speaking et a recent meetings of the
Bankers Club of Brooklyn, said:
"There has been a declme without
parallel in the prices of all- kinds of
goods and commodities. Bank loans
have steadily declined since the be
ginning of this year arid reserves in
some parts of the country are now
building up to satisfactory figures!,
but, even with this improvement in
the banking situation there is still a
most serious condition in industry.
The foremost among the industries
which are suffering is the great funda
mental industry of agriculture.
"It is the obligation of the banker
today to determine in what direction
he can properly and conservatively
stimulate business by giving encour
agement and confidence to the pro
ducers and merchants who depend up
on him for advice and for funds. If
it is true, as I believe, that stocks are
abnormally low .that merchants manu
facturers, wholesalers and retailers,
who a year ago could not obtain,
enough goods at high prices .are now
unwilling to carry their usual stocks
at low prives, it is the obligation of
the banker to endeavor to remedy this
situation. It seems to me that, at the
present time no other single thing
would contribute more to ihe restora
tion of business in a sound and con
servative manner than the resumption
of the carrying of normal stocks in
proportion to the probable needs of
consumers.
"Another obligation with which the
bankers may properly charge them
selves fh the public interest is that of
devising effective measures for elim
inating the swindling promotion
schemes which cost the people huge
sums at regular and frequent inter
vals. "I deem it to be a real obligation of
the bankers of this country to cooper
ate with the government in working
out a program by which the meaning
of Thrift may be brought home to
every man, woman and child; and
this hould be done, in part .through
the Savings system of the United
States Government and in great part,
through the stock and mutual saving
banks. Neither the private nor the
Government institutions can do it all,
or do it alone, but it is certainly a re
flection upon cur management of the
situation that the Government at thi
time, instead of raising money from
the savings of the. people, should bo
callsd upon to pay off $12,000,000 to-
$15,000,000 a month thus materiailr
adding to our financial burdens in
this difficult period."
