demanded in a resolution adopted at I
the closing session of the American
Bankers' association here today,
"We ought to learn by experience
to avoid and avert these periods of
over expansion nlid collapse. The
responsibility of avoiding them Is
largely upon A bunker, more than
upon anyone else, for he is in a po
sition to know hotter than anyone
else where credit Is becoming gener
ally over-oxtended."
Mr. Roberts said that the present
situation Is due to the "aggregate de
mand for credit by all the Industries
and all linos of business beyond the
ability of the banking system to
supply," Such conditions, he added,
rosult from "tho war, from the wnste
of capital and expansion of credit

HOME SERVICE
SECTION DOES
VARIED WORK
ACTIVITIES ARE MANY,
REPORT SHOWS
NEW OFFICERS NAMED
R. W. Sawyer Elected Uy Directors
To Head Red Cross Chapter
County To Be Asked To Main
tain Public Health Nursing.
Only partially revealing the work
done by the home service section of
the Bend chapter of the American
Red Cross, a report given last night
by Rer. J. Edgar Purdy at the meet
ing of the chapter directors showed
that no less than 600 families bad
been dealt with from January 1 to
October 21. Of this number, 600 re
ceived service other than informa
tion and 100 received Information
service only. The home service sec
tion is in charge of Mrs. V. A. Forbes.
Help was given ex-service men In
various ways, Including applications
for travel pay, bogus, Liberty bonds,
state educational aid. Victory med
als, Victory buttons and state badges.
The committee found that the soldier
Job is by no means completed, as
there are now 50 disability cases, 14
of which are vocational training
cases also. Two-thirds of the fam
ilies with which the home service
section deals are those of former sol
diers, .sailors or marines.
In the case of civilian relief, loans
and grants were made, the county
court visited, Investigations for wld
dows' pensions made, and interviews
held with physicians and relatives.
Larger Fnnd Needed.
As to finances, it was reported that
10 organizations in Bend have for
several months been contributing
$10 each per month. It has been
found necessary, with the extension
of the work, to provide a $200 re
volving fund, instead of a $100 fund,
which was previously adequate.
As the result of the chapter study
course last spring, a comprehensive
survey of Bend and the vicinity has
been forwarded to division headquar
ters In Seattle. It was' found through
this survey, the report stated, that
Juvenile delinquency was one of
Bend's most serious problems. The
social group, American Red Cross, is
an outgrowth of borne service work,
and Is interested in the study of
child welfare and family rehabilita
tion. County May Take Up Work.
For public health work, the re
port submitted covered only last
month's activities. . During that
time visits were paid to eight public
schools in Deschutes county outside
of Bend and public lectures given on
health topics. Two hundred and
sixty children were examined and 270
defects found. At the tuberculosis
clinic held here 52 persons appeared
for examination and 10 positive cases
found. The report, In full, will be
printed in a later issue.
With this year, the Red Cross will
cease to maintain a public health
nurse In Deschutes county, but It
was indicated last night that this may
be taken up by the county itself, es
pecially as a committee, which has
been Investigating recently, has
found sentiment favorable In the
communities in the north end of the
county. A movement was started to
have the cost of rpp.lntalnlng a pub
lic health nurse p.. Vju the county
budget, and to form a county health
association, which will take the place
of the Red Cross, as far as public
health nursing Is concerned.
Officers Are Chosen.
In connection with the chapter's
work outside of Bend, It was reported
that the Junior Red Cross at the
Cloverdale school has a membership
of 28.
Election of officers for the Bend
chapter for the year resulted in R.
W. Sawyer being named as chairman,
with L. M. Foss, vice chairman; J. D.
