The Clearing House Banks.

+ was fortunate under the circum-
h,4nces that TIN clearing house banks had
- trt-d IN" week with so considerable
surplus reserve as the SlI 1S2 COO SO that
the weeks heavy demands have carried
the reserves only 81 223 80 below the
legal :"Iulrement-a showing of greater
strength than has been mad in many
former periods OF only comparative stress
II j. uoi4h'.. also that the United States
deposits included In the statement are
only sl3 Gl3.J'o greater than in last week 5

government deposits during the week is
known To have been much greater. There
IS d ruling IN force of the Treasury d.
Yartnent, never avaiied OF by the clear
anS house banks. permitting government
deposits 10 be segregated from those
against which cash reserve is required
owing to the high grade of the securities
required as collateral against such de
poSits. uder this ruling regarding the
reserve requirement. the banks would be-
In possession. according to the state
ment. OF an actual surplus OF $40 TS2. $50.
The principal involved In the mainte-
nance OF fixed proportion of cash re-
serves by the banks is that of readiness
for sudden emergency. against which
there Is no prohibition of the use of the
reserve even down TO the point OF exhaus-
sion. The bank statement was regarded
Therefore. as showing a reassuring de-
gree or strength IN the banking position.
Clearing House Certificates
For the conservation of this position
the decision of the United States clearing
house today 10 issue Gearing house GER
titcateS seems to offer entire security
By acceptances between the banks of
these certificates for settlement of debit
balances, the presery alton of the cash
deposits from depletion Is assured.
The determination of the New York
savings banks To avail themselves of the
permitted requirement of sixty days no
t!ce OF Withdrawals forms another safe
guard against march Of unreason IN
the boarding of the country's credit bases
away from use In the time OF greatest
necessity. Finally the inauguration of
gold importationS opens a channel of re-
p!enishment of the basis OF banking cred
dts. which promises effective relief The
joint effect OF these factors was the feel
