ederal Reserve
System Subject of
Bankers Meeting
"What the Federal Reserve
Does lor You" was discussed
by J. A. Randall, vice presi
dent of the Federal Reserve,
at a meeting of the Rogue
Valley chapter, American In
stitute of Banking, at Hud
rick Junior High school last
week.
He reviewed the history of
the Federal Reserve system.
which began when Woodrow
Wilson signed the act in 1913.
The Portland branch has been
in existence since 1917.
The Federal Reserve Banks
offer many services which
benefit not only bankers, but
businessmen and the general
public as well, he noted.
One service Is the collec
tion of checks. A businessman
may take a deposit of checks
from all over the country to
his bank, and the funds will
be collected from the vari
ous banks in two days. The
time a few years ago was
seven days.
Also Supplies Cash
The Reserve Banks also sup
ply cash to member banks,
and ship coin and currency at
no cost to members. They
also can control the economy
somewhat by raising or lower
ing reserves required on de
posit of their members, by
raising or lowering the dis
count rate, or by their "Open
Market" operations, that is
buying or selling government
securities. They also can con
trol the amount ol money
flowing in or out of the coun
try - "balance of payments."
Among the other services
are safekeeping of securities
for banks, telegraphing mon
ey or securities anywhere in
the world, reissue of govern
ment securities and bonds,
and keeping an account for
withholding taxes and excise
taxes paid by employers.
Member banks may also
borrow from the Federal Re
serve during seasonal needs.
One of the most Important
functions is the printing and
Issuing of paper money, Ran
dall noted.
One more seminar is
planned by the Rogue Valley
chapter in April on "Fraud
Detection, Embezzlement, and
Robbery and Ways of Com
batting It."

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
AFTER DAYS OF unceasing rain it became obvious that
the turbulent Missouri was about to overflow its banks.
An experienced farmer whose homestead bordered the river
packed his 12-year-old
son up and sent him to
his uncle in the next
state, asking that he be
taken care of until the
situation righted Itself.
Three days later the
farmer received a collect
telegram that read, "Am
returning your son im
mediately. Send along
the flood!"
A businessman's car
broke down In a lonely part
of Vermont late one night,
and he considered himself
lucky to find a farmer willing to give him a bed. The business
man made It clear that he had to be up looking for a repairman
at tlx the next moming to keep an Important appointment In
Manchester. "I'm rather hard of hearing," he told the farmer,
"so you'll have to make a special effort."
He awoke the, next morning to find tt was almost ten o'clock.
He Jumped angrily from his bed. ready to give the farmer what
for, only to find this note under his door. "Please wake up,
mister. It's six o'clock."
'
New twist on the man-from-out-of-spuce routine: two Mar
tians popped up at a Las Vegas gambling casino, and spotted a
slot machine.
"Oh, look," exclaimed one to Uio other. "A slot machlno!"

Ha Who Laughs at Others
May Look Funny Himielf
Like iron filings attracted
to a magnet, the visitors to
a zoo moslly congregate about
the monkey cage. There they
will spend more lime than
at any other attraction.
And the little, human-like
animals inside the cage make
the most of the attention they
are getting by grandstanding
and showing off. Stand for a
few minutes by a monkey
cage and focus your attention
on the humans instead of the
monkeys. You will be sur
prised at what you see and
hear.
Such expressions as, "I
could stand and watch these
things all day. Aren't they
funny? Don't they look lust
like little old men?" , . . and,
"Monkeys are the craziest
people."
People laugh at monkey
shines. The antics of the little
animals amuse children and
adults alike, and the reason

Actually, we arc amused be
cause thoso little animals are
portraying human actions in
a morc-or-lcss monkey-like
caricature of ourselves. The
startling similarity, both in
bodily build and what they
do, parallels so closely human
looks and actions that we are
fascinated without being whol
ly conscious of how monkey
like many of us act or even
look. We completely overlook
the fact we might appear
pretty funny ourselves.
Just fur your own enlight
enment, visit a zoo on a rainy
day some time when there
are no people present. Keep
out of sight but in a position
where you can sec without
being seen by the inhabitants
of the monkey cage. Chances
arc you will find there is very
little in the way of monkey
shines going on. In fact the
little animals will be acting
pretty bored, almost listless.
Then, watch as people start
In gather in front of the cage.
This is the ideal situation for
the monkey-folk, and they
will make the most of it. With
an audience present they will
begin to show off like the hu
man exhibitionist on the div
ing board or at the beach. The
monkeys put on the act, iry
ing to be as funny as they
feel. They want to display
their dexterity and clever
ness, and to be as man-like
as tlicy are monkey-like.
Many limes we see our
selves as others sec us. por

We many laugh at what we

council conalau of a judge, a
thousands of dollars into a
stranger's business, and refuse
to set up her own sons? Of
course we can't promise her
exactly the return she's get
ting now. Not at first. But
we'll provide for her needs
and see that she wants for
nothing. And after a few
years, she'll draw more from
our business than she'll ever
get from the one that now has
her money.
Just because we've always
worked for somebody else is
no reason for our mother to
assume we can't run our own
business. We think we know
the ropes of the restaurant
game. We have a chance to
pick up a good location. Why
should -we have to go to a
bank or a finance company
for capital? Our mother
should have enough faith in
us to advance it.
. . .
The Council: A peek at the
roster of Wall St. Investors,
Henry, would reveal a large
number of mothers, and fath
ers too, who buy into "a
stranger's business" -said
stranger being Mr. Ford, Mr.
Hcrshey, Mr. Douglas, etc.
Some of them certainly have
children who'd rather see that
money go for stock in them!
But somehow these parents
have more faith in- the com
mercial acumen of Mr. Ford,
etc. They're not acting unnat
urally, for what can be more
natural than self-preservation?
No, Henry, we're back to
the cliche about family and
business-they don't mix eas
ily. An investment made on a
purely business basis for in
come to live by, ought not be
jettisoned for reasons of senti
ment. Why should your moth
er give up a sure thing? Here
she's in the enviable position
of being able to look out for
herself. She has the breezy
feeling of independence, at
least on the financial front.
She'd lose this the minute she
transferred her funds to you.
There's no way to keep the
transaction "business-like." A
mother is loalh to sue-her sons
in court for non-payment!
Our advice here is for Hen
ry and his brother to arrange
their financing through regu
lar business channels, and to
stop eyeing their mother's
smooth set-up.
But we hasten to insert a
memo for Mrs. T. While
you're sittin' pretty in Ihe dol-lars-'n-cents
sense, you're not
at all independent in the emo
tional sense. You say you love
your sons. You also need
them, and this becomes in
creasingly true as the years
roll on. So you'll be wise to
find another ' way, short of
selling out your Grade A in
vestment, to further their vo
cational progress. How about
engaging a topnotch business
consultant for them-to cither
talk them out of buying a res
taurant, or show them the
best way to proceed?
As for cash aid, this mother
can borrow a sum for them, or
donate it outright in the spirit
one contributes to one's pet
charily.
