liabilities, however. as shown in the latter
Item, makes but little change In the total
OF the banks reserves the decrease
amounting to about one-third Of 81, ,O00 0O0
1t is evident that the loans have gone to
swell banking credits and incidentally de-
posts, the gain in cash partly making up
for the discrepancy between the two items.
The net increase in cash. In fact very
nearly supplied the added requirement. in
that use has been found for all the money
which came into the institution last week.
AS an exemplihcat!on of the theory of
banking operations outlined by the secre-
tary of the treasury in his annual review
last week. the current exhibition banks
is particularly to the point. In detail the
stamp presents nothing that throws light
on the current situation. The expansion
In loans can be traced to three or four of
the larger banks and gains in deposits have
been limited, for the most part, to about
the same number. 1t Is evident that the
loan Increase has been due to sterling in
vestments and collateral buying, although
there is a steady absorption of commercial
paper. The actual position of the banks
with respect to cash changes Is a variance
with estimates based on the weeks opera
tions. Currency from the interior Is mov-
ing this way as natural a. this season. The
amount will be increased largely, as the
January dividend period approaches On
the other hand, the banks are losing to the
treasury about as much as they gain.
The net increase of 81, 400 900 in cash for
the week, therefore, was unexpected The
seeming ability of the banks to extend
their operations In proportion to the excess
cash received Is an argument against low
er rates, even If it does not forecast any
degree Of firmness.
The din OF the new loans, however, is a
matter of interest. AS long as ther are
merely the tangible expression of deferred
european credias, they are dependent on
fractional exchange quota tions, and are IT,
able to sudden contraction.
For this reason, 1t Is difficult to Judge the
luture OF the money market. The only in
ference is that rates cannot go higher for
more than very brief period, since such
a move would almost Immediately defeat
Itself through gold imports

OFFICE OF THE HERALD,
Los Angeles, Dec. IU, 1913.


R. G. Dun & Co.'S Monthly Review of
Trade Conditions for November in Southern
California says: Conditions throughout the
general business world offer the highest en-
couragement. Large aggregate Of volume OF
business for November, increased foreign
demand and comparatively few failures
show an unusual condition of financial
soupdness.
Export of food products continues large.
Industries generally have done well, the
most important event being the placing of
orders for 70O, 600 tons OF steel rails.
The price situation is, on the whole, sat-
isfactory, as more advances than declines
were recorded for the month.
In our immediate vicinity business is af
fected somewhat by the fact that November
has passed bringing no rain. Business must
OF necessity move along very conservative
lines until there is a good soaking rain.
Interest centers now in the coming orange
crop, and orange buyers are particularly
active, and holiday shipments are going
forward. 1t is claimed that the fruit sent
forward is better than the fruit sent last
year for the Christmas trade. The price for
fancy naves is $780, top price, Is cents less
than opening price last year.
The walnut crop is about moved. One
beneficial result Of this years short crop
will be that no walnuts will be carried
over. thus insuring for the coming season a
clean market
Eastern demand for dried fruits is fairly
active and prices are we'll sustained. The
raisn crop of the state on best grades is
we'll cleaned up. Under the management of
the raisin combine it is shown the net rate
per pound received for the whole crop will
average about 3A cents, as against net
average return last year of lA cents. The
celery crop was the largest crop yet moved
from this section. Barley prices remained
unchanged during the month. Corn brought
full prices. A general advance went into
effect on beans. The stocks are reduced and
held firm.
Failures for November were tho lightest
OF any month during the year in our district,
being in number, with liabilities of SILL
600; assets, $4,000; against Is in November,

Kindly ALLOW me the space in your
vaGuabhz. paper to answer our Second
ward councilman about the Jews Sab
bath day.
Mr.. LEM claims that the Jews keep
open all the time. Has he ever hcug'ht
anything from Jew on his Sabbath day
or dii he seq someone Else do it? Mr..
LEM jun,peGi on the chief of police for
mot having the Jews .'puNled.' Now
dfe!n't he pull them time and again?
Then he remarked that tie Jews do
more harm on Sunday than all the bars
in lawn.
Now, Mr.. LEM. please explain to the
readers Of the Daily Press what harm
1t does man buying a handkerchief
or a ntrktie OR a collar button on Sun
day. Did you ever ge. drunk on that
mixture? Noble representative, your
own employees buy, their wearing ap-
p.suel on isunllay because yrsu keep them
working on Saturday night TIL ell the

to t:ly their goo1S on Sunday. NOW wiz
you call that harm? / do not care to
discuss whether lit does a man good or
harm to buy a pair of shoes when bare
footed, hit want to, say to you that If
you are so much of a iaw-abiding cfti-
zen, then why don't you stop kicking
about the Jews Sabbath. 1t is a Statt
