he says in his public statement:
who will own this bank? NO one
has the right to assume full knowl-
edge, but there is no objection to his
guessing who will own it and who will
control it and If it be owned and con-
trolled by the same interests that al
ready own and control more than fit
ty of the large financial institutions
o. the country, with their multiplied
ramifications, one can make safe
prediction that the country bank when
ii needs relief will be respectfully re-
ferred to the large city bank, which
alone will be supported and aided by
the central bank"
When asked regarding his prefer
ence as to a plan tor correcting the
present evils, Mr.. Shaw says:
1T seems to me we might devise
some sort of scheme for utilizing
the national banks pretty much as
they now are. 1t might be necessary
to combine them into local assocla-
tons. The treasury could perform
all the functions of central bank
so far as the issue OF currency goes
to the individual bank exercising ne
cessary supervision, but without in
terfering with their individuality.
They would be in effect branches OF
the central authority so far as the is
sue of currency was concerned, but
the local associations could determine
upon the sufficiency of the security
and it would be to their interest to
maintain a system OF examinations
to the highest degree of efficiency.
do not believe our state and national
banks and trust companies would ever
consent to surrender their individual
ity to such an extent as to become
either direct or indirect branches OF
a central bank privately owned, no
matter how great the degree of gov.
eminent supervision
Fear New York Domination.
These views express fairly well the
concensus of opinion among Phila
delphia financial men, including not
only bankers, but the heads of large
commercial institutions. They all ad
nit that the central bank in theory
a good thing, provided it is limited
to it's legitimate functions of being a
bank which deals only with other
banks, and which does not enter the
general commercial field at all On
the other hand, thss seem to think
that a great central bank would ne
cessarily be located in New York,
which is the financial center Of the
country, and that from that fact alone
1t would be dominated by Ney York
influence.
That is to say, no matter how hon
estly such a bank might be conducted
it would necessarily be responsive to
local influences first, so that the need
Of Wall street and the great financial
institutions always would be looked
after first before the rest of the coun-
try was given consideration.
Philadelphia men would welcome
a central bank located in Philadelphia
just as Chicago bankers would have
confidence in a similar institution
whose headquarters were in Chicago,
but there seems to be agrowing jeal
ousy In all of the commercial cities
of the country lest great central
bank located In New York and prac.
tically owned there would control the
credits of the country to such an ex-
tent as to render the banks of every
other city practically tributary to it
so that they would be branch banks
in effect IL not in name.

Ireaders Of newspapers today
hare the people who are doing
fittings, and to them the daily
land weekly newspapers are
as necessary to their life as
their clothing and food-it is
a part of their life. 1t is be-
cause of this fact that the
!press is powerful. It is able
to reach 80 many into it's con-
fdence. The newspaper edi-

nor is be crammed with know

but he is just a plain, blunt

It is through the power Of
the press that the recent

have been brought abont, |
aud it is due to the press thai 7
the old sentiment, that money |

press that exposed and drag

some OF the highest officials
