HEAVY DUTIES
IMPOSED UPON THE CURRENCY
CONTROLLER.
His Office Though the Most Unpopular
Branch of the Financial System 80
Is One Born of Necessity
Its Requirements.

WAsUJN0ToN, The recent
failure of the Keystone bank in Phila-
delphia has directed especial attention to
the great responsibility that is vested In
the controller OF the currency.
From his Office in the treasury depart
ment the controller has to keep his eye
on 1865 banks with capital stock rang
ing from $50 coo to SIS, 600, 900 and aggre-
eating moro than billion dollars.
Each Of these banks must report its con-
dition to the department five times q
year and the controller may call upon
them at any moment without warning
for a statement OF their condition on
certain day. All those reports have TO
be carefully examined and compared
with former reports and other state
ments published by the banks. II any
thing irregular or IN the least suspicious
is discovered the directors Of tho bank are
notified and requested to correct or ex-
plain, as tho case may re. re. 1t Is the
custom to notify each OF the directors In
. separate letter, that there may be no
concealment on the part of any one Of
them.
Besides there is the control of the
corps of examinations, the supervision
VI ehC ooiNONe Onh INV HI iAidhy ooiSA PoA
ticulars and the settlement Of the ac-
counts OF the iusolvents, the redemption
OF old notes and the chartering of new
and closing of old banks retiring from
business, to all of which the controller
must give his attention. To assist him
in this he has force of about thirty ex-
aminers and ninety-two other employees.
Through this Office the bank gets its
charter to exist. The division OF issue
sees to its currency; the redemption di-
vision sees that the old notes are prop
erly chewed up into material for pulp
ornaments which tourists fancy; the
division Of reports keeps its weather eye
on the banks during their varied exis-
tence and finally, if they are not well
managed, it becomes the duty Of the
insolvent division to close them up and
try to satisfy the creditors. The insolvent
division has had its hands full lately
between examinations, liqu 'dations and
explanations. 1t is not popular branch
of this financial system. 1t twas not pro-
vidcd for in the general plan approved
by congress, but without approval Of it,
born of necessity, it came into existence
and plays very important part in the
system of bank supervision. The exam
liners reports go there and the fate OF a
tottering bank is there decided, as far as
q governments decision goes.
