i Compose Yourselves
TI71TH a universal though we hope only temporary par-
of the banking machinery of the nation, the best
ad rice to be offered Is: Compose yourselves. The present
.to?!1 Is a product of "safety first" hysteria on the part
- of millions of people. Primitive Instincts of self-preserva-.tion
have shaken the pillars in a cooperative society, until
-r J capacity to function has been impaired. Legal author
ity became necessary to preserve order and permit the re
cruiano; of reserves for the general protection of the public
welfare.
We ought to be ashamed of our breed for the ruin it
has brought upon itself. With fabulous national wealth com
pared with most other nations, and with an arrogance
which has marie us a byword among peoples, with virtually
n0 indebtedness to foreigners, we yet have demonstrated
car incapacity to manage our business successfully so that
yesterday the dollar, prime coin of the world, was not even
quoted on foreign bourses. We have made of ourselves in
deed the laughing-stock of the world.
I To get ourselves out of the kinks as quickly as possible
we will need clear thinking and well-poised conduct The
mechanism is here, sunnlv and demand r rwri hut mn-
jfidence is lacking. Fear, deadly, disintegrating fear has just
irozen us. uanirs are expected to reopen in a few days with
restrictions upon withdrawals. The country is through per
mitting scared individuals rancrincr like wild animals to mill
. down deposits and wreck banks. The "system" is not due to
collapse: it is still in worJdncr order: but wa havp mad
