OF al the months OF the year August
is the most historic. With the Indians
and with natives of northern climates
the month is properly recognized as
the month of the harvest moon. It is
then that the crops are garnered and
the harvest is laid by.
But aside from this fact the month
is important for the historical events
that have been recorded.
August is the month in which John
the Baptist lost his head and Cleo
patra took to her bosom the asp which
caused her death. Bozzars and Mel
son both fell in the hour of victory in
this month of August. t'
Ancient and modern history rings
with the sterling events of men in this
month. 1t witnessed the start of Cor
tez for Mexico The murder of the
princes in the tower occurred in Aug
ust. No page of history is so satur-
ated with the shedding of innocent
blood than this same murder of the
helpless innocents of London's tower.
The famous seven years war was
started in August. Poland succumb-
ed to the influence of Austrian power.
These are events of historic import
ance, but 1t is not only in records of
battle and bloodshed that the month
is notable. The printing press was
first tested in August, and the first
publication of any value was produced
in the same month that the printing
press was given to the world.
1t is interesting TO review the other
achievements of science which are re-
corded in this month Marconi and
Edison both gave to the world useful
inventions. The wireless, the great
saving factor of marine traffic. was
first patented and announced in Aug
ust. an dthe incandeseent light was
discovered by Edison in the harvest
moon month
The first submarine cable was com
pleted in the month of August, the
greatest blessing of the nation. the
formal proclamation of peace between
the north and the south in that fratri-
cidal struggle, was declared in Aug
ust, Julius Caesar landed in Britain
and Napoleon on St. Helena and New
Amsterdam surrendered by the Dutch
in the same month.
The list of events of August might
be continued indefinitely. No other
month in the twelve has such record
as the ones named aboye-Commer-

prohibition territory and thus make
Uncle Sam the arch violator of the
Law. The state of Oklahoma backed
BY the churches at one time went into
the liquor business through the state
dispensary but popular disapproval
was so pronounced that the scheme
was abandoned. Il is q principle of
Law that the state-and the means the

the individual cannot do If it is a

borne the full burden II the tremend-
Gus losses In OklanoE,a during the
period since statehood. yet they rec-
ognize the soundness of the principle
that the depositor sho"ld have abso-
lutte assurance that his money viii be
va ting 70 rhim when ne calls for il.
However changes in the Law that
would lessen this burden on the state
bankers would only b. just. Statis-
ticians have estimated that the losses
of the past fifty years equal about Que
seventeenth of one pc. cent of thu de
posits of all the banks IN the uTited
States. The loss in Oklahoma during
the first years of the operation of the
guaranty law We're far in excess of
this amount. However, this law was
enacted at a time when the state was
in most unsettled condition as were
the financial affairs of the whole ma
ton. This was a new state. Men
from all parts of the globe had come
into It and some of them were not
bankers and some were plain crooks
who came here to take advantage Of
the new conditions to build up de-
posits and loot the guaranty fund. This
condition has passed. The banking
situation has somewhat cleared. The
banking board has gained the wisdom
of a most trying experience and is
prepared to thwart such methods in
the future so that the losses will be
less. We believe that one-fifth of one
per cent on the deposits of the state
banks each year will pay all losses
and create fund that will take care
OF future losses. In view of this we
believe that the maximum assessment
for any one year should not be more
than one-ifth of one per cent. Then
If any extraordinary losses occur let
the difference be paid out of the gen.
eral revenues of the state. This will
give the. tax payers a more direct in-
terest in the enforcement Of the bank
ing lawsEand will serve to assist in
violations 1t is not unjust
to ask the public to bear a portion of
the burden of the guaranty of deposits.
They are beneficiaries to a large de-
gree through the operation of this
law. A blow to the financial struc-
ture of the state is blow to every
tax payer and we believe the people
Of Oklahoma, if made 70 thoroughly
understand an amendment to this eff
feet, will accept their share of thel
burden. The banks, however, are the
chief benefciaries and must carry the
greater. part of the burden. Bank
