This is evidence that Mr.. fancy agreed with
be annhiated," but that they should furnish IN
CREASED FACILITIES" TO commerce, and be
used for the accommodation of the people"
The deposite act required the banks 10 pay interest
on the part of the deposite fund. The makers of
that law would not have made such requsilion had
they supposed hat the banks were not TO discount on
the public funds. For how could they afford TO pay
interest on the money laying idle in their vaults
Besides, the only compensation which the banks re-
ceived for their agency, which was attended with
much labor and care, was the benefit Of discounting
on the deposites.
But this is not all of the stimulus which was APP
Piled (See the Letter Of the Secretary Of the Trea
sury, Mr.. Woodbury., Dec 3l-'35 to the President
OF the Bank of Amerca)
II is not proper that the present [deposi,e] banks
should agree with others, such security may be
deemed udicous, to leave the balance with them, till
Congress by act shall render it necessary TO call
for the whole part Of those balances In that event.
this department would open no account with any but
the Deposite Banks and the balances allowed to stand
in other banks should equal in amount ALL WHICH
THE PRESENT BANKS CANNOT BENEFIT

In reply to the answer Of the President Of the
Bank OF America and the President Of two other
banks answering the question in the Secretarys let

1886:

population, &c. you form, ii is presumed, safe con-
illusions how far and in what your discounts
and other lNDuLGENCES be extended. But
from all that is known to this department. do not hest
tate TO express opinion, that the SAFEST and most
LIBERAL use you make Of any surplus not other
wise employed, Immediately needed, would be TO

Of specie payments by the State banks on or before
20h of February next. As an inducement to this
sure, the Government only and their operations by
Withholding from circulation much Of their paper
in their Treasury which may hereafter be received,
the demands upon the Treasury, during the ensuing
year will permit the which it will be in the
power OF the Government retain the Treasury, will
be considerable it may present sufficient nducemcnt
to change their determination to resume specie
payments before the LIST day Of July next
Again he says:
How far the discredtng Of their paper by refusing
to receive it in discharge Of dues and taxes will inhu-
their conduct, only be ascer,aned by the
PERTINENT"
Mr.. Crawford not only did all he could do to aid
In the resumption but he sustained the banks which
were pressed, af(er the resumption, through the
to the Senate in 1917 The Act incorpoi attn s4he.
United States Bank directed him 10 deposiIe the
public moneys therein. This in many cases he did
not do, and in explanation OF his conduct he says in
the letter last referred to, al was influenced by a
consideration Of the pressure felt by the State and
local Drinks during several months subsequent 10 the
resumption OF specie payments, and OF the SERVI-
CES rendered TO the Government by those banks
during the period that they were used as places Of
public deposile, an immediate transfer Of the public
money deposited in them would probably, have pro-
duced pressure upon the DEBTORS OF these
banks which might have Inflicted upon them evils
greatly beyond the benefit which would have re-
suileQ from tndt measure 10 the Bank ol the
States" How strikngly different this spirit from
that which now prompts the Government! Mr..
Crawford would not only sustain the banks, but he
would condescend even To aid their CREDITORS.
He did not believe in The cold-hearted, selfish and
unpatriotc doctrine now for the first time, incul-
caled by the President, that the Government must
take care Of ITSELF and the people take care Of them
selves
Ouemors Erfract Of a letter from Mr. Craptord 10 The
President The Bank Of Missouri, June -, 1919.
In the present critical situation Of the county when
the distress Of the citizens requires the utmost ndu-
gence which the banks, consistently with their SOL
veucy, extend to them, any measure course OF
conduct the part Of the banks having the public do
poses towards other solvent banks which will require
them to press with urgency for the payment Of
debts due TO then, cannot fail TO add greatly the Pc
cuniay distress which prevails the country. II is
eriremey desirable that this pre-. should be in
creased beyond what required by the safety Of the
banks having the public deposes aud it is eonfdeaiy
expected their conduct towards other banks wall be re-
gulated according TO these views"
