lie would be amused were they to
know at times how sharply the clear
ing house COMMITTEES looks into meth
dds employed by its members.
In the panic that began last October,
funds were carried from bank to bank,
taken ostentatiously through the front
doors, that depositors might know that
other banks believed in the soundness
Of the institution which had been at
tackled by a run, and performed al
most every essential Of the guarantee
system.
Why?
Simply because the modern business
system Is so complicated and 50 little
actual money passes current that each
bank must know that the others are
properly safeguarding themselves and
also that they are permitting The car
rying Of accounts by depositors whose
paper may always be depended on as
worth face value. -
Beneath the Surface.
So beneath the surface, one could
witness the clearing house associa-
tons examining collateral, securities
and assets. and often serving notice
On a given bank that the association
will require some change in methods
on penalty Of refusal longer to clear
for that bank.
Banks Out OF tho Association.
How about banks not in the associa-
lion? Many perfectly sound banks are
not directly In the clearing house.
They clear through another bank
which does belong.
Precisely the same rule applies to
them, for, when need arises, the asso-
citation serves notice on the member
bank which clears for the non-asso-
citation bank as to what will have to
be. done; and 1t is done promptly, too,
in every instance.
Bank-Book Should Be Worth Face.
The essence Of the guarantee plan is
that a bank book should be worth its
face always. An entry in 4 pass book
should not constitute the assumption
OF a risk by the depositor and the CIV
Ing Of wide latitude to the banker.
Such entry should be recognized as
Just as actual an asset as bank note.
. Also, proper arrangements must be
made for the continued espionage OF
banks by other banks.
Lastly, and quite as important,
banking laws must be enforced; over
certifcation must be stopped; loaning
Of funds in national banks on obvious
" speculative schemes must cease;
apd other reforms must be wrought to
invest. the banking. system Of the
country with that complete confidence
which, If induced would put a stop
to gil nervousness by depositors.
