who are entitled 10 it This would come
through the establishment OF banks of
deposit and discount and the branches
OF such banks. 1t is demonstrable that
the whole surplus loanable capital Of
the world is always available to the
people OF every country where credit is
maintained and where investments are
offered which promise q lair margin of
profit. Modern methods OF banking and
modern methods Of transportation make
ii immaterial whether the volume of
money in the world is greater in Lon-
don or New York, in Chicago or New
Orleans, IN Boston or in San Francisco.

and ability of those who desire 10 bor-

WHY WE HAVE HARD TINES.
"Just one more question, Mr.. Eckels
What do you think is really the cause Of
the hard times we are having?"
~ believe" replied the controller OF
the currency, THAT the present condition
OF the United States is due to unwise
financial legislation and the agitation of
monetary questions, with the continued
attempt to substitute here money
standard which is not recognized by any
great commercial people with which we
have to deal. The threat OF substitdt-
ing the silver for the gold standard has
throughout the past few years frightened
both home and foreign investors, SO that
al ,r
the effect OF closing up factories and
mills and putting an end to great under
takings. The uncertainty as TO whether
the government would be able, because
OF the Sherman law, TO redeem its de-
mand obligations in gold was the one
thing which brought to climax great
many other things which in and Of
themselves would not necessarily have
produced the depression we have had.
Undoubtedly there have been contribute
ing causes in the overcapitaliZation OF
corporations, the unwise speculation of
the past few years, the extravaganza in
public and private expenditures and the
living by many people beyond their
means and outside their incomes
These things and the agitation OF foreign
and domestic questions gave rise to
doubt In the minds of many as to our
financial stability Still, with all this we
have had but few failures, and it seems
TO me that this is an evidence of the
great resources Of our country and the
energy OF our people. II we can now
be tree from agitation, II our people will
settle down individually to their individ-
, ual business and not undertake to at.
tend to the business affairs of every one
else, the financial future OF the country
will at once improve and we will again
become people commanding the con-
iidence OF all with whom we have to
deal, and one which will be known as
such and as possessing the richest
country Of the world"

AZ per cent This is much lower than
the interest rates which prevail in the
dealings OF private individuals or cor
porations."
CLEVELAND AND THE BONDS,
"How about the bond issues, concern
ing which Cleveland has been so much
criticisedH'
THE issuing OF bonds by the present
administration was necessary from the
fac. that it was essential to the mainten-
ance of the credit OF the government
that its demand obligations known as
greenbacks and Sherman notes should
be redeemed in gold. in accordance
with the enacted legislation OF Congress,
which declared it to be the policy OF the
government that the various forms OF
money in circulation should be kept at
parity. Some OF the money obtained
from the bonds was no doubt used ior
meeting the deficiency made by lack OF
revenue, but in the first instance the
bonds we're issued Tor the purpose
stated and had it not been for the law
made tor the purpose they could not
have been issued at all. | think the ad-
minlstration il entitled to the very great
est credit for having maintained the
prevented loss oil national and in
dividual credit The amount OF in
terest charged Is Insignificant compared
with the loss that would have COME to
every individual citizen il the govern
ment had permitted itself to go TO a
silver basis. What the people will pay
in taxes 10 meet this interest charge is a
triile as to what they would have had to
pay il any other policy had been pur-
sued. Had these bonds not heen issued
the governments obligations would have
had 20 be redeemed in silver. The law
to maintain the parity OF the metals
would have been repudiated, and our
redit, both national and individual,
would have been lost. Every foreign
investor would have Withdrawn his
money from the United States and every
lender OF foreign capital would have re
fused 10 send money here.'
NINETY PER CENT OF OUR BUSINESS
DONE ON CREDIT.
ut is said, Mr.. Eckels, that we have
not enough money in the country to do
the business. Is that true?"
81 believe" replied the controller,
chat the volume of currency in circula
ton at the present time is of less im-
portance than the quality OF the cur
rency. You will see this when you con-
slider the enormous amount that credit
has to do in the carrying on of our
business today. The need OF actual
money has grown less and less. 1t has
been found on careful investigation that
the average use of credit instruments in
the business transactions OF this country
and others where banks OF discount and
deposit prevail is over 90 per cent. The
use of checks, drafts and bills of ex.
change in making transfers of money
makes every dollar in use an efficient
dollar, so that, instead OF supporting a
single transaction, it supports many.
MORE BANKS AND MORE FAITH.
"What is needed" continued MIR
Eckels. ''is an enlarged opportunity o
obtaining credit on the part OF thost

rs insolveut and that these on the aver.
age, taking the closed and not closed,
have paid in the neighborhood of rs per
banks now being liquidated have been
closed this percentage will be even
larger. The security OF the note holders
in national banks is as you know such
that no note holder has ever lost any
thing"
BANK OFFICIALS AND BANK EXAMINERS
How are the banks examinedW
"'rhe banks have to send reports Of
their condition TO the controller five
times every year, and these reports are
published. They are also examined by
examiners appointed by the controller.
The examiners report to the controller
aud it is their business to ascertain
whether the capital stock of the bank
is impaired. II it is impaired the con-
troler has TO levy an assessment upon
the shareholders to make such impair
ment good. The duty of the controller
is wholly supervisory. however, and it
does not in any way relieve the officers
and directors Of the bank from the
duties placed upon them. The con.
troller can suggest methods OF safety,
but it rests with the officers of the bank
and the directors to accept these sugges-
tons or not, He can suggest methods
OF bookkeeping aud the duties which
directors should discharge. II the
directors and officers do their duty there
is little danger that bank will fail, but
unless they give attention to such duties
sos days in every year 1t is unfair TO eN
pect the supervising officers to accomp'
liSh the complete safety OF such banks
in two or three examinations year.
believe that the supervision Of the con.
troller has prevented the failure OF many
banks, though it may be that there are
here and there cases where facts have
been overlooked which might have pre-
vented failures. | think that such in.
stances, however, are much less in
number than the banks, which have
been saved through the supervision OF
the controller"
