Brandeis Files Brief
With Commission
Higher Standards of Efficiency, Not
Increased Freight Charges,
Needed by Railroads.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2-Higher stand
ards of efficiency not increased freight
charges, are the notes to be sounded today
by American railways.
This position is the essence Of the brief
filed today with the Interstate Commerce
Commission by Louis d. Brandeis of Bos-
ton, counsel for the traffic committee of
commercial organizations of the Atlantic
seaboard, in the investigation by the COM
mission Of proposed advances in freight
rates by carriers in official classification
territory-that part OF the country east of
the Mississippi and north OF the Ohio and
Potomac rivers. Railroad managers, Mr.
Brandeis contends, in an effort to meet
existing needs should not look without but
within
IF their net income is not sufficient, I"
he says, "the proper remedy Is not higher
rates resulting In higher costs and iessened
business. but scientific management result
ing in lower costs, in higher wages and in
creaed business.
'If their credit Is impaired, the proper
remedy is not to apply the delusive stimu-
liant of higher rates, but to strengthen
their organizations by introducing advanced
methods and eliminating questionable prac-
tees. Thus they will maintain credit by
deserving it,"

BANKS SHOW GREAT GROWTH
Prosperous Year is Ahead of Fiduciary
Institutions and Depositors.
NEED OF SAVING IS EMPHASIZED
Editor Points Economic Need--His-
tory of Nebraska Institutions at
once Promise and GdhrRrty
of Good Times Ahead.

Reference to the past history Of Ne
braska banks seems 10 justify current
predictions of a successful banking year
ia 1911. The great growth of Nebraska
banks. the flawless record of national
banks of this state and the present condl-
ton of the state and national fiduc airy
institutions Of this nature alike offer con-
crete evidence Of a good year ahead.
Moreover the general business public
has come to recognize the economic
necessity OF accumulation" phrase used
by w. r. ingalls,, editor of the Engineer
ing and Mining News. Mr.. ingalls, phrase
and argument, printed in The Bee Mon
day. made a deep impression upon Omaha
bankers, some OF whom had been inarticu-
lately feeling what Mr.. Ingalls, has con-
ly articulated.
argument was that "the chief factor
Encouragement in the financial outlook
may be generalized as the tendency among
people once more to accumulate savings
or. perhaps / should say, the recognition
of the economic necessity of so doing.
This means the reduction of eXtravagances
anu the introduction of increased econ
omies in production"
Past Growth a Future Promise.
Other factors than lnlbt IeAeIIeu ~
above. are the history of the growth of
Nebraska banks and the record Of honesty
and fidelity to depositors. Both make Tor
confidence in the future
Nebraska banks have grown greatly. In
the year 1866 three national banks existed
in this state. These were the National
Bank of Otoe County at Nebraska City,
the First National of Omaha and the
Omaha National bank. Tolbert Ashton was
president of the Nebraska City bank and
Julian Metcaif was his cashier. Edward
Creighton then headed the First National
and August Kountze was cashier Ezra
Niuard was president OF the Omaha Ma
tional and Joseph n. Field was the
cashier. Mr. Field, who is brother OF
Marshall Field Of Chicago, soon resigned
and Joseph e. Millard became cashier He
succeeded to the presidency, a position he
SIN holds. in 1884. Mr.. Field. who lives
in Manchester, England, is still stock
holder.
Besides these three national banks sew
eral state banks existed in 1866. These
were Carson 6. Co Of Brownville, Nemaha
county; Dillon e. Maxwell Of Nebraska
