Why Doctors Favor a Liquid Laxative Banker Describes the Way Loans and Securities of Banks Are Based on the Hopes and Plans of All Classes—Values Dependent on Public’s Ability to Meet Obligations By FRANCIS H.

SISSON wage* and salaries or profits from the resales ot their securities at enhanced market values, each as the case may be. The greater part of these various forms of cradlt is obtained by the bor rowers directly or Indirectly through the expansion of ths loans and invest ments of the banka It Is this which creates the notes, securities and mort gages In the portfolios of ths banks. The banks are abh to extend those loans because a great many people de posit money with them. Even under the best conditions the plans of a small percentage of borrow ers go wrong through mistakes, hard luck or dishonesty, and the judgment of ths banker in snch cases is proved by the after avsnt to have been at fault. The losses caused under such condi tion» ar* ordinarily fully mst by funds set aside out of the earnings of the banks for just this purpose and do not affect ths money of ths depositors, who seldom hear anything about snch losses. In the vast majority of cases and In ths overwhelming volume of business Involved the confidence of the banksrs In their customers and the confidence of the customers in their own ability to carry out their plans and obligations to successful conclusions are wholly justified. This Is the normal economic situation and it constitutes ths condi tions under which the use of credit adds to public welfare and progress. C unal act».

The securities markets became paaie-ridden as the prices ot stocks and bonds withered to tractions of their former values It was the greatest disintegration ot human plans, economic conditions and worldly values that history had ever wltneseod. These destructive changes cut right through the qualities and values ot the loans and Investments, the notes and securltiea la the banka Bualneas men and manufacturers could not repay their notes to the banks as due. Many governmental units and corporations defaulted the payments on their bonds. Property underlying real estate mort gagee became worth less than the face ot the mortgages. The market values of standard securities became less than the banks had paid tor them aa In vestments or accepted them at aa col lateral for customers* loans. This meant. In flee, that the ability of borrowers to carry out the future hopes, plans and good Intentions that I have denned above as the basis of credit, had become Impaired to a tar greater extent than had ever before oc curred In the nation's history.

Those loans and Investments were, under all normal eordltlons. as good as gold Itself.

Th* inevitable result was that, whan the banka urgently needed th* money they had entrusted to those assets, so that they oould meet th* unreasoning demand* of thalr depositors, they oould not get It back.
