Senator Dunne is also greatly inter ested in the settlement of lands and the return of the unemployed of the cities to small tracts. Also in the general development of the resour- ces of the state, and of the naviga- tion of our upper rivers, all of which are applicable to the imme- diate needs of our own communities. Along with my withdrawal and support to Senator Dunne, went publicity and support of two metro- polltan dailies, and several coun- try dallies, and many weekly papers outspoken in favor of the combina- tfon. This was followed by Senator Hall’s withdrawal and the diversion of his support, largely, to our poli tical camp, which made the coup complete. Dunne’s nomination is far more valuable to us than my defeat would have been, even though I had received a large vote, which could have been turned to effect only alsongside that of five other simi- larly defeated candidates — not much.

But he was one of the world's richest men. Just the same—if you don’t be lieve it, look at the final paragraph of his will. It read: “I have had a wonderful happy time and I thank God for the boon of life." And a little earlier In the will occurred this sentence: “I can only wish that I had been more worthy of the affection lavished upon me from birth by my mother, father. I uncles, aunts, and later my wife, 1 my children and my friends." It isn't by using a figure of speech | that we can say this man was one I of the world's richest men. For all the fact that his estate would bring j $400 In the market, he wrote the kind of will that few men could write; and he was able to write it because he had the kind of wealth | that few men succeed in amassing. He had. In short, a thoroughly I happy life; he had love and friend- ship In abundance: and when he came to the end he was able to thank God that he had lived, Could any mortal ask for anything more? Yet such riches, after all, aren't quite as rare as we suppose. To be sure, they aren't often garnered by the wealthy and the famous. They fall, more often, by some kind of di- vine Justice, Into the laps of people who never had large bank account or saw their names tn the headlines or experienced the luxury of hiring less fortunate folk to do their work for them.

PUBLIC OPINION AND THE BANKS Has Stood the TEST By F. N. SHEPHERD Exfcutiv« Maxafer American Bankers Aieaciatiax banking today appears In a W HILE wholly distorted light in tbe eyes of some, the more reasoning elements in our population undoubtedly have a less jaundiced view than would appear from cer tain irresponsible orators, often posing as spokes men tor that In definite quantity called "the mass” of our people. Anti-social acts on the part of F. N. SHEPHERD some bankers for merly have been the subject of spectacular exposures, but 1 can say without reservation that they were In no way typical of the acts and attitudes of the vast majority of their fellow bankers. Tbe public mind was shocked into the belief that these untypical Instances were tar more rep resentative than they really were, and this belief has been encouraged by po litical and demagogic elements. You praise the bridge that carries you safely across the stream, or the ship that lands you safely In part. The same praise is due a go " Bank like ours, that has safely weathered the financial flurries all these years and has been able at all times to protect its depositors and care for all needs of its customers. It is a record of which we are proud. Our Bank has stood every test and invites your patronage. DEPOSITS PROTECTED F.D.I.C. FIRST NATIONAL BANK of Hermiston Capital, Surplus and Undivided Profits Over 850,000. F. B. SWAYZE. President A. H. NORTON, Cashier The Bankers Today The bankers who are in charge of our banks today represent men who withstood the temptations and avoided the economic pitfalls of the great boom. If they bad not they would not be there, or their banks would not have been able to survive the rack and ruin of the economic hurricane, by which even many banks and bankers, whose conduct was above reproach, have been destroyed. The other types of bankers, those that tell below the high standards of professional ethics and business prudence that character ized those that remain, have passed out of the picture. But they have left for those that remain a difficult herit age of suspicion and ill will. How Irrational this is, when we re flect that not more than three or four per cent of our entire population suf fered personal loss because of what any banker did or neglected to do, whereas literally millions of bank de positors did not lose a single cent as a result of banking difficulties and really owe a vote of confidence and thanks to their own hankers who were true to the highest conceptions of their stewardship and brought their institu tions and their customers safely through the greatest business disaster the world has ever seen. It has been a peculiar feature of the psychological distortion of the times that many who owe nothing but gratitude to their bankers joined in blaming the banker tar out of proportion with any rational consideration of tbe facts.

TEDERAL examination of trust de- - partments is the latest develop ment in banking supervision and trust companies and banks operating trust departments are welcoming this de velopment because it fills a long-felt want. It is stated by the Trust Division of the American Bankers Association. Despite the growing importance of American trust business in recent years examining officials have never given to trust departments the atten tion paid to commercial banking de partments. this authority points out. Now the Federal Reserve System, in conjunction with the Comptroller of the Currency, has undertaken to bring the examination of trust departments up to the level of commercial bank ex- aminations. it says. Experts in trust work are being em ployed by the various Federal Reserve Banks. These experts will head the special staffs of trust examiners in the twelve Federal Reserve Districts. Spe cial staffs are already at work tn some of the Reserve Districts, including Boston, Atlanta. Richmond and Chi cago. The Federal Reserve will ex amine the trust departments of state- chartered members of the Reserve Sys- tem. Uniform Supervision Meanwhile, the Comptroller of the Currency has built up over the past two years a staff of special examiners for the trust departments of national banks. All national banks are members of the Federal Reserve System. Since nearly all state-chartered trust institu- tions are members of the Reserve Sys tem the new plan will bring about what amounts to Federal examination for the trust business. State examining authorities probably will follow Federal supervisory policies to a considerable extent. Hence, coor dination of the procedure of the nation al banking system and the Federal Re serve System is expected to result In a uniform system of examinations tor trust departments in all banks. This In turn should produce considerable standardization In the operation of trust departments, tbe division de clares. ----- so._ _ R. ALEXANDER. Vice-President D. M. DEETER, Asst.
