AMERICAN BANKERS BEGIN
MEETING At Los ANGELES

Fred I. Kent, for their active and un-
selfish work.
I'm other countries bank supervision
rests largely with directors and share
holders through the employment of
public accountants as examiners and
the maintenance of permanent audit
ing staff.
'1n our country the national and
most of the state governments main
tain strict supervision over banking
institutions under their jurisdiction,
and as our association has been a con-
sistent advocate for better service in
this respect, it is with much gratifica-
tion that we note the satisfactory re-
suits attending the efforts of recent
years to bring about a highly develop
ed system of supervision of banking
institutions throughout the country.
In this respect the administration
Of the present comptroller of the cur
rency, Hon. Lawrence o. Murray, is
conspicuous and commendable ex-
ample of what can be accomplished
in his Office, and | feel that he is de-
serving of the thanks of the members
of this association for the high state
of efficiency to which he has brought
the present system of national bank
supervision.
"The clearing house section of our
association has also successfully urged
the employment of examiners by clear
ing houses to make regular examina-
tions of the banks in some of the large
cities, and we find an increasing num-
Der of banks each year employing out
side auditors to make Independent ex-
aminations for the benefit of their di-
rectors.
"All this work, | believe, would be
greatly aided by the development of a
uniform system of bank accounting,
as advocated in his quiet way by the
Hon. Pierre Jay, formerly commits
sioner Of banking for the state of Mas
sachusetts, and now vice president of
the Bank of the Manhattan company
New York Such system would be
invaluable to the smaller banks and
could be utilized to advantage by the
larger institutions and would provide
ready and sure means of verification
by the bank examiners
81 also believe that out of such a
system there should be developed a
proper method of ascertaining the cost
basis for handling various items and
transactions in the banks.
] Manufacturers reduce to the small,
est fractions the cost of each opera
tion in producing goods, while bank
ers have too long been prone to lump
expenses and income and take chances
on coming out with profit
''The expense end of any other mod
ern business is under careful super.
vision, and in my judgment if bankers
were to work on proper cost basis,
as we'll as transit costs, they would
not only find their analysis depart
ments would reveal opportunities to
insure amazing savings, but would be
less eager to offer unusual induce
ments to secure new business"

PHOT0-ENGRAvERS
ON STRIKE

Demanding recognition Of their
union and that the union label shall
be placed on all their work that
leaves the engraving plants Of the
city. the photo-engravers came out
on strike here last night. At noon
today 1t was announced from the
McDermidSalnave engraving plant
at 722 Rivedsire that both the de-
demands Of the engravers had been
allowed and that the men were
back to work.
From the Spokans-American En-.
craving works at the corner of
Sprague avenue and Lincoln street
II was learned that the firm had
not yet conceded the demand for
the union label, but that most Of
the men were working.
Officers of the Spokane -Ameri-
can Engraving Co. state that there
are several other demands made by
the photo-engravers, which are, in
their opinion unreasonable, there
fore. have so far been denied. The
Objectionable features of the de.
mands are said to be those in which
the engravers specify that only
union men shall be employed In
the engraving shops and that only
certain number of apprentices
shall be put to work to learn the
trade
