A Remedy For "stock Gambling,

A Remedy For tStock Gambling,
Referring to last years speculations
in stocks. a writer in the current Moo
dy's Magazine says that to conduct
this enormous gambling business alb
sorbed a great part of the banking
capital of the United States, with cor
responding penalties to productive in
dustry and commerce." and suggests
what he holds to be the only effective
remedy. 1t is well known that pro-
fessional stock spectators borrow
| funds at usorious interest and that the
banks are protected in these transac-
lions by a New York law. This law
permits demand loans'' to bear any
interest.
The Writer in Moody's is a lawyer
and declares that it is "an open secret
that banks constantly certify the
checks of their broker customers for
amounts largely in excess Of their de
posits." This is plainly contrary to
law and an imposition upon bank
stockholders. Disqualification natur'
ally follows after ~usorious interest has
made the bank the partner Of the spec
ulator, and the remedy proposed is
the repeal Of the act Of 1882. permit
ting usorious rates and an increase
Of penalties for loaning bank money
on fictitious balances. This would cut
out the stock gamblers ''sinews o.
