What is a Bank Deposit

The deposits in the banks are six teen billion dollars.
 The money in the banks amount; to E billion dollars; the money out side the banks, 2 billion-34 billion of money in the whole country.
 Bank deposits, then, are more than ten times as large as the total stock of money in the country.
 For every dollar the banks owe their depositors they have less than a dime in money.
 Bank deposits are not money.
 What, then, is bank deposit?
 Only one dollar in twenty of the deposits the banks receive every day (they run about billion a day) are in money. All the rest are in the form of orders or promises to pay money.
 If you go to your bank and bor- row s1, 900 the bank credits you with S1, ,O00 on its books. This is a deposit. If you draw a check against this s1, GOO to pay the mort gage on your home, the man who gets your check puts it in his bank This is deposit.
 If you are a manufacturer, you get from a customer, in payment for goods, his written promise to pay you the amount in ninety days. You put this note in your bank, which credits you with the amount less interest. This is deposit. Or, you draw an order on your custo- mer to pay you the amount in 90 days; he accepts the draft; you put it in your bank. This is de- posit.
 In such ways the great bulk of bank deposits arise. Modern busi- ness makes actual money of less and less importance in the exchange of goods between producers and con- sumers.
 Nine-tenths of all our business is now done with bank credit.
 No bank is ever in position to pay any large number of its deposi- tors on demand cash in full. But every sound bank in sound bank ing system has its resources in such form that it can obtain cash on short notice to meet the most extraordi- nary demands of it's depositors.
 Every great commercial nation, with the exception of the United States, has provided a means where by sound banks can always convert prime assets into currency Bank ing Reform.

According to figures contained In the

patients of that institution during the
year 1911 would amount to over $780,

Of tuberculosis are good investments.
there is good reason for thinking that

Out of 1872 patients having homes. the
number in the family averaged SO, and
the average family earnings were

there any savings, none OF which
