Los ANGELES ASSURED
.OF SUB-TREASURY, REPORT

Los Angeles seems assured of a sub
treasury. This important news was
contained in an Associated Press dis
patch from Washington last night an
nouncing that the senate had passed
the bill introduced by Senator Flint
providing for a sub-treasury in this
city. Rinancial and business interests
Of the city, which have long urged
that Los Angeles should have sub
treasury, regard the news as of great
importance.
The trade with the country to the
south of this part of the United States
is constantly increasing. European
countries heretofore have monopo-
lized the trade with the countries to
the south. Their success is attributed
to their enterprising methods.
The bill passed yesterday also pro-
vides that any national bank with un-
impaired capital and surplus Of at
least 81, 900, 900 may establish branches
in foreign countries on obtaining sane
ton of the treasury department. This
IS considered by Senator Flint to be
of great importance to the commercial
world. This bill is expected to over
come the setbacks Americans have had
to contend with in seeking trade in
South American, Central American and
oriental markets. At the present time
Americans in the above mentioned
countries must pay tribute estimated
at $5,OO0O00 annually to foreign bank
ers in the matter of exchange.
In pointing out the benefit to be de-
rived by Los Angeles as a result of
such legislation Senator Flint said re-
Gently:
"Would not the commerce of Los
Angeles almost double IL 1t were pos
sible for the representative of the Los
Angeles merchants in Mexico to deal
directly with their home city through
a branch of their bank in Los Angeles?
There could be no stronger hold for
the American trader than to have a
branch of his home American bank
fright on the ground where he wanted

a few and not for others, and that
after having been a public thorough
