REPORT OF BANK SUPERINTENDENT SHOWS RESOURCES IN STATE INCREASING government can extend no greater COOPERATIVE MARKETING stimulant 10 the general welfare ot'j SWEEPING OVER OOI N'TV.Y our country than 10 provide imme-; - - - The farmer, who, because of un certain markets, has been hard hit by the depression following the war, must have relief based upon unse cured obligations with a low rate of interest and maturities extending over a period sufficient to permit li quidation through profits derived from products of his labor. This was the contention made lu re loday by Frank C. Brainwell, Btate superintendent of banks, in a state ment covering the operations of his department during the past year. The report will be filed with the gov ernor, and later may receive consid eration by the legislature which meets here January 8. "On December 31, 1921," said Mr Bramwell'a report, "the aggregate resources of all banks was $288, 4"4, 859.49. On, September 15, 1922, the resources aggregated $:S02,281,208. 2 7, or an increase from January 1 to September 15, 1922, of $13,746, 348.78. 'The financial conditions during the year 1923 are anticipated with general optimism. There is every in dication that business will be stimu lated asd that money will be avail able for general financing throughout the country. "There are, however, many angles involved when we survey the general conditions which may develop in the future. One of the most essential re quirement will involve relief forth' farmers and the agricultural sections throughout the entire country. This relief from present indications must be made available through some con venient and active Instrumentality of the government. "During the past two years farm ers have liquidated their obligations by obtaining relief through the fed eral loan bank and the joint stock lard hanks v hich have ben organ ized tor thai purpose. Available funds through these sources, however, are not sufficient to meet the require mnts. The farmer must have re lief based upon unsecured obligations with a low rate of Interest and ma turltles extending over a period suf ficient to permit liquidation through profits derived from products of the farm. Loans Are Made "At the present time the farmers .. ..,...,!iv have secured their obllga- by executing loans secured by find personal property.
