mutual welfare Of the banks and the
community as a whole.
The bankers west of the MISSISSIPPI
river have given to the count the
most striking examples of the posi-
bilities of clearing houses exercising
various special functions, while the
great associations of the east, and es-
pecially hat Of New York, have ex-
emplified the utility and value OF
clearing house loan certificates.
Among other functions of the lear
ing houses are the granting OF loans
TO the government; mutual assistance
of members; fixing Uniform rates o.
interest on deposits. and UNIFORM
rates of exchange and of charges on
collections. Several cases of agree
ment of this sort in the west are re.
corded, where union among the barKs
has restricted the cutthroat competi-
ton which in other cases a led 10
unwarranted payments Of interest on
small and active deposit accounts.
Protection to the community from
the effects Of bad banking is one of
the objects attained, according to Mr..
Cannon, and the significant statement
Is made that "as money rates de-
crease losses from bad debts must be
brought to a minimum. and the ques-
ton of a central agency which shall
disseminate information regarding
paper outstanding among the banks,
must and will receive the attention 1t
deserves"

Immense Commercial Con-
sumption OF Paper.

A talk with a paper maker who
caters largely TO the publishing and
printing trade disclosed the interest
ing fact that commercial catalogues
these days use much more paper thar
all the other kinds of books put to-
gether. These are the books that tell
Of the new styles in automobiles and
various Industries, the catalogues OF
the big mail order houses. which are
put out in enormous additions of mill
ions Of copies.
Concerns like the Sears-Roept.ck
company and Montgomery Ward of
Chicago" he said, and Mays and
the Siegel Cooper store and the Na-
tional Cloak company here think
nothing of putting out our or rive
million copies OF a catalogue which
weighs three, four or even five
pounds. That means a vast quantity
Of paper Is used; 1t is paper of a good
quality. too-sometimes q ven fine
quality.
THE second big branch of paper
manufactured is that which goes to
the publishers of ~books-novels. books
of reference, dictionaries, all sorts of
books.

Usher wants to get out a good, pig
book-an inch in thickness, say. SO
the more book there is the thinner
paper he can use, but If there is less
material for him to print and he still
wants his big book without having
to pay excess paper bills on account
OF weight, he want a paper that will
conform all around This has brought
about the art of making a thick paper
without extra weight. We strive to
give these fellows lightness in

scores of lives are being lost. II will
be months before the fun tale Of the
catastrophe Is told, and still the flames
are increasing in volume. The Ca
madam government has recognized the
situation as a national calamity and 1t

struction OF millions and millions OF
