often beat his wife.
Last night. II is said, Lemons wife

and the effect of a bad failure is far reaching but
there risk of direct loss inspire the Jealous
watChtulneSS necessary for safety, and guaranty
to keep the nervous depoSitOr-thc who often
makes most of the trouble-in a calm humor.
This strict supervision, that would necessarily 90
with a guaranty of deposits would still further
reduce the percentage of loss, and may be safely
predicted that it would fall much under the forty
three cents thousand dollars of deposits that would
have been necessary to the losses 1903.
The tentative plan, however, is to build up the
guaranty fund by assessment of fifty cents
thousand dollars of deposits for a few years, after
which the annual assessment could be considerably
reduCed-poSSibly as low as ten cents a thousand
dollars. Some idea of the magnitude of this guar
anty may be cleaned from the fact that at the
fit y-cent rate, the New York city banks alone
would contribute in of five hundred thousand
dollars annually to the fund. 1t should not take
long to raise 1t to point where material reduCt ion
in the rate would be justified.
The plan also provides that the contributing bank
shall have the of the money it contributes so
far this may be possible In other words the
money contributed by each bank would be deposited
IN that bank on the terms that it receives
other deposits and only so much of it would be
withdrawn as might be necessary to meet the banks
share of the occasional losses 1t would paw the
usual rate of interest bank balances for the use
of the money, but it would make the usual bank
profit its share of the guaranty fund and the
interest paid would add to that fund The bank
therefore, would be in the position of making a
contribution OF money that would still remain
available for profitable use, except as emergencies
might require the withdrawal of a comparativelv
small part of it.

Some Obstacles to Overcome

GO lar, there would seem to be nothing but general
~ advantage IN the plan; but there are some con-
siderable obstacles to overcome. The big banks
may contend that they would be bostering up the
smaller and weaker banks; but they are ALWAYS
dong that. Every bank failure is hurtful in some
degree although its influence may not be felt far
and every banker will YOU that he interested
IN preventing all failures This is proved by the
fact that the clearing house banks frequently 90 TO
the assistance of outside institutions. The motive
IS self nterest-a desire to any trouble that is
likely to shake public confidence Therefore it is
argued, the big banks should have deep personal
interest in any plan that will give the public abiding
falth IN banking institutions generally.
10 the argument that, were all banks regarded
as equally sound the big ones would lose many of
the deposits that their individual strength now
DrlngS them, the reply is made that it would have
practically no effect upon deposits that other con-
slderatlons, such credit, convenience personal
acquaintance, etc, have more influence with
dePosltors than the apparent comparative strength

The Chicago plan involves an association or asso-
Citations of all banks that could the necessary

zation The State plan would offer the advantage
Of being less unwiedy than a national organization
and there are few cases in which a State orgauiza-
tion would not be amply large and strong enough

would provide a guaranty fund, to which the ind-
vldual banks would contribute in proportion to their
deposits and this fund would be available TO take

a statisticlan has recently figured that an annual
assessment OF forty-three cents thousand dollars
OF deposits would have covered all depositors'
losses through bank failures since 1904 and this
would include the failures in the panics of 1873 and
1893. The writer also shows that the actual
losses to depoSitorS not large; but that the
hardshps and commercial disasters in such cases
are usually due to the fact that depositOrs are
deprived of the of their money considerable
part of it. while the affairs of the broken bank are

take several years to close up the business of a
bankrupt institution. This delay is now obviated
IN cases where the clearing house banks for their
own protection, take over the assets and pay the
depoSltors; but the clearing houses of the country
do not at all answer this purpose
