The Guaranty
of Bank Deposits.


So firmly is the idea OF the bank
deposit guaranty plan intrenching it
self into the public mind that the
arguments of those wno oppose the
plan are becoming positively ridicu-
lous. In answer to one OF these ar
guments, no less a financial authority
than the New York Journal of Com
merce says:
1.-The argument that banks would
be more likely to be reckleSsly man
aged and to rush into insolvency if
they were mutually bound TO make
good the losses to deSositors in case
of failure is too shallow and ridicU-
1ous to receive the countenance that
1t is getting from that type of con-
sentative to whom any doctrine novel
TO him is necessarily heEetical."
This was the ground upon which
and. if the above were not an ade-
quate answer to ais objection, the fact
that the republican convention of Kan
Bas, proceeded TO endorse the demo-
cratic position on the matter, ought
70 be sufficient answer to it. Even
the Indianapolis News, the most in
fuential republican paper in Indiana
says:
THE more one considers the cues
tio2 the more difficult il seems to
find any valid objection 10 the pro-
posal providing some adequate method
OF guaranteeing bank deposits"
Realizing the trend of sentiment
against him in this matter, Mr.. Taft
has now modified his position to the
effect: that he fsvors a voluntary
association on the part of the banks"
to accomplish this guaranty plan.
Thus does Mr.. Taft again show his
lack of a political spinal column and
again. and for a fourth time come
over to a democratic platform policy.
His approval of the publication of cam
paign contributions, his approval of
tariff revision, and his approval of the
direct election of United States sena-
tors-all repudiated by the repubIi-
can platform, but demanded by the
democratic platform-his change of
heart on all of these things has been
SO transparent in purpose that it is
the next thing to being ridiculous.
So far as Mr. Taft's approval of the
voluntary bank deposit guaranty is
concerned, he hardly does credit to
that fine judicial mind" of his when
ne attempts TO argue that a voluntary
guaranty would be all right while a
legal guaranty would be all wrong. He
declared at first against a guaranty
OF any kind and for the sake of con-
sistency it would have been better
had he stuck TO his original declara-
ton instead of letting Mr.. Bryan
force him into foolish concession.

for the reason that of all the other
