Bcprecates Bank Speculation.

1T has been discovered that many ma
tional banks have been directly or in
directly furnishing capital for speculative
ventures. Some Of them have been
largely engaged in promoting or UNDER
writing questionable business schemes.
All of these operations are clearly outside
Of the scope of legitimate banking and
and serve to bring discredit upon all Of
our banking intitutiOns.
The habit of banks in the large cities
Of paying a high rate of interest upon
the deposits of other banks has led to
large accommodations of lOanable funds in
the great commercial centers at times
when the demand for trade purposes
throughout the country was less than
normal This dangerous accumulation
has naturally led many times 10 specu1a-
tive and improvident loans
THE enactment Of the pending bill will
furnish evidence that Congress is not
unmipdful Of its serious responsibilities in
this regard. There can be no reasonable
doubt of the effectiveness Of the measure
The committee firmly believe that through
its enactment an atmosphere Of confidence
and feeling OF security viii be created
which will be invaluable in improving
business conditions and in giving a new
impetus to the work Of national develop
ment'

THE securities named find universal ac-
ceptance in settlement Of obligations. No
securities except United States bonds
have a better credit and standing in all
financial circles. They have a definite
value, readily ascertained, on all the
great exchanges Of the country. and thew
are always salabe under normal con-
ditions AT full market price.
1T is evident that the banks OF the
country might wisely and without diff
Guilty or loss, invest $500. 100000 in first
class State, municipal. or railroad bonds.
This investment would be an exercise of
that care in management which should
characterize institutions which have and
expect 10 retain, the confidence of the
American people. The wisdom of this
course finds ample confirmation in the
example OF the banks in every COM
meTCial nation.
Another objection which is urged is
that the taxes imposed by the bill will
result in an increased rate of interest on
loans. which would necessarily be paid
by the borrower. and that this increase
In rate would apply not only to loans
made possible by the additional issue of
notes. but would also apply to the en-
tire amount Of loans and discounts made
by all the banks It is further claimed
in this connection that the increased rate
would lower the prices of products mar

examination.
THE rate of interest in any country
or community is fixed by the demand for
and general supply of loanable capital

on a small portion of loans, or IN one
locality, without reference 10 rates on
other loans or in surrounding eommuni-
ties. II the banks can recoup the amount
