TREAT HAS NEW
BANKING PLAN
NATIONAL CLEARING HOUSE
BANK TO BE OWNED BY ALL
THE BANKS.

Baltimore, Feb. 1.-THE establish
mont of a national clearing house
bank to be owned by the banks, not
by one bank or by the government,
was advocated by United States
Treasurer Treat, in an address be
fore the Baltimore Chapter of the
American Institute of Bank Clerks in
this city last night The operations
OF such a bank, he said. would seem
70 meet all the great business needs
of the country through banking ac-
commodations. would give elasticity
20 credits and amply supply currency
and Treat declared there would be
no scarcities or famincs in currency
thereafter.
Treat said this proposed bank
should have a capital of $500 0l0.00
TO $500 100000 and should be allowed
to issue national currency and be
the government iepositary and re-
serve agent for all banks doing busi-
ness with it. II should have the
dgt to buy and sell foreign exchange
and the privilege OF rediscounting
bankable paper of its shareholders at
- rate of interest not exceeding q
per cent. Of which - per cent would
be left as a margin. as is now done
bI the clearing house bank associa-
ton in its loans.
