1t May BE Harmful.
Il not only fail to see where the
anenument would be~useful, but think
IL might be harmful. Real estate is
SLOW asset, and in the time of panic
OF financial furry it might be impossi-
pie 10 raise the money on it. This Is
one OF the reasons why national banks
are not noWo peTnaitted to loan money on
real estate, andHI think it is a good
one. fasEi
A. c. Anderson, cashier of the st. Paul
National: Il Would be in favor of the
amendment, if It was confined to banks
IN the smaller cities. / think that it
would be beneficial there, but not in the
large citiesI like st. Paul. The national
banks In the cities are organized for
the purpose ofcrarrying on the COM
merce of the country, and real estate as
an asset would rot be preferable for
them. In the rural districts, however, 1
can see where the amendment might be
OF considerable. good. Take, for instance,
small bank with a capitalization Of
S250OO If there was a panic and-a de-
positor became afraid a list of the
banks real estate assets would convince
him, in all probability, that he was per-
fectly safe, Jones would know that
Browns farm was worth 100000 ana
and that If the bank had $1,000 loaned on
it that it was a perfectly safe investment,
no matter what happened in the finan-
cial world.
cas- to whether the banks should be
allowed to loan money on only farm
property I am not positive. / think,
however. that village real estate is pref
ty safe, and the bankers in a small COM
nunity are eth0ro1lshly sconVerSant with
all values of property in their localities
The other questions asked by Congress
man McClearY are of a nature that ce-
mand more thought than I have given
the subject; and would not care to ex-
press an opinion on them. Broadly
speaking, would favor the amendment
provided it were limited to banks in the
smaller towns. Of course, nothing but
first mortgages should be considered. I
