The Government and Bank Failures

In forty-nne years, to October 81
l911-the date covered by the last re
port of the controller of the currency
the net loss to depositors in Nation
al banks that have failed and been
liquidated was $S7OOO,OOo. This is
only a negligle fraction of l per cent
a year of the deposits in National
banks. From the controllers report it
appears, moreover, that so per cent
in number of these failures were
caused by acts in direct violation of
the National bank law; and the heay-
lest losses generally occur where yio-
laton of law is most fragrant.
1t is safe to say that one-tenths of
one cent deducted from each dollar of
individual deposits now held by the
banks would cover all losses that de-
positors have sustained in forty-nine
years through failures where there
was no violation of law; and II is well
huoNu tAldt VI idit 4Ndio , 4NdAiOlldA uttAh
inspection has become more rigorous
and efficient, tending undoubtedly to
prevent violations of the law
In normal times everybody, broadly
speaking, trusts the banks, and with
good reason-that is, everybody ex-
cept the government itself II is one
of the anomalies of the present bank
ing situation that the government,
which assumes guardianship of the
national institutions in order that
everybody else may have confidence
in them( will not itself trust them at
that its own deposits
be secured by bonds. Periodically dis
trust of the banks becomes widespread
Ito the oountry's great harm and loss.
How much the governments eX-
ample may have to do with inspiring
this periodic distrust it would be hard
to say: but there is soon to be, We
hope, a different and much better re-
lationship between the government
and the banking system. Saturday

DICTATES OF FASHION.

Prince sof Wales feathers are quite
the rage in millinery.
Pique is one of the most popular
materials for summer wear.
Silver fringes are a favorite finish to
gray chiffon overdresses.
Stockings are frequently inset with
real lace, and this again even embroid-
cred with beads or jewels.
Long wraps of taffeta are displayed
to wear with one piece frocks of chif-
fon, taffeta or mousseline de sole.
The craze for colored stockings
shows no abatement. They match the
gown and are worn with black slippers.
Dark rich wine colors, dun, brown.
mauves. taupe, dull blues--all are APP
propriate co1ors for the older matron's
gowns.
Paris advocates metal brocade slip
pers for evening wear. Black and
gold and black and silver are the ia
vorite combinations.
White serge is never out of fashion
and while not so cool as linen, 1t looks
better and does not need the constant
laundering which the linen does. The
new white serge looks to the un-
trained eye like new kind of white
cloth-thin, with a smooth surface and
supple weave, while the weight is not
felt.
