a Cozen good reasons why you
should keep an account with
this Rank:
NCMBER FIVE: This country's
foreign commerce Is transacted
through foreign banking houses, 10
Gated, as far as Washington is cou-
cerned, in New York City. The In.
ternational Banking Corporation,
with equal equipment and covering a
much wider foreign field, provides an
American institution for those who
prefer to do business with such. Be
cause It deals direct with Its own
branches it is able to transact its for
eign business at the lowest cost. The
Washington branch, by means of elab-
crate cable codes, is itself in instant
and direct touch with all the banks at
foreign points THIS Is WORTHY
OF NOTE.

The labor situation is bad in spots. and
it has been further complicated by the
latest strike of the structural iron
workers; butt despite this position Of
affairs. the general volume of business
in the country continues on a large
scale. Railroad earnings for most COM
psnies continue to break all records for
corresponding periods. especially among
the grain carrying companies. Big crops
in the crop season now closed insure big
earnings by the Western roads for the
next twelve months. Heavy crops will
bring money to the farmers. and with
prosperity in the great agricultural sec
ton of the country there need be no
uneasiness over natural setback in
many lines of trade.
