Does High Rate of Interest
Mean Poor Security?

There are certain banking max
inns which have come to be gen.
orally recognized. When a school
boy>starts in higher mathemat
les, he is taught that there are
certain fundamental rules called
axioms, as. for INSTANCE, "the
whole is equal TO the sum OF all
its parts or "a straight line is
the shortest distance between
two points. -
Bankers recognize axioms in
banking just as much as mathe.
maticians recognize mathematic.
al axioms in Algebra, and one OF
the axioms in banking in this
high interest rates mean doubt.
ful or poor security"
1t does not necessarily follow
that notes bearing 10 per cent in
terest may not be good, but very
conservative bankers recognize
the fact that there are risks at
tending paper paying 10 per cent
interest which do not attend notes
bearing bali that rate.
There is probably no bank in
Vermont, and perhaps not one in
New England. that banks on in
vestmenis paying as low an aver
age rate OF interest as the HYDE
Park Savings Bank. Its average
rate on deposits, bonds and notes
ior the year ending December
3fst, 1919, was FIVE and forty six
one hundredths IS 46) per cent. I
Cities. towns and villages know 1
that they can 60 10 the n yde
Park Bank and get S per cert I
money. The bank invites Ger
with Selectmen and
Trustees desiring at any
time TO make either temporary or
longtime loans.
The Bank carries continuously
one hundred thousand dollars
with two Boston and New York
houses at AZ per cent,
he loan being strictly on call and
occurred by pledge Of gilt edged
municipal bonds, bonds which
ire a legal investment for Yer
mont savings banks TO own.
The question may be asked
Why the bank pursues this course
When il might just as readily
lace TIA money at six per cent. )

FROM OTHER PENS

LET THE OTHER FELLOW WORRY.
Down east some nervous Republican
leaders seem still to be worrying what
they ought to do about the Republican
party. Whether to hold a national con-
vention now or t. delay its meeting
Tor year or so until the tariff shall
have done it's work of education is a.
subject for profound discussion and
warm argument. We invite these
over-wrought leaders to a study of the
returns from the Michigan spring cleo
ton, recently published by the official
canvaSsers.
These returns are sufficient demon
stration that worry Is unnecessary, so
far as Republicans are concerned,
The question that is acute Just now
as the figures show, is not What
wrong with the Republican party?" but
What's wrong with the Progressive
party?"
The Republicans can afford to let
the Progressive bosses do the worry
ing. party that drops from first
place to a bad third, from a total vote
of 215,000 to around 10000, all in five
months, may indeed be facing critical
need for considering its faults and find
ing their remedies. but a party that
can stand up as the Republicans did
in Michigan hasn't much to keep it
awake nights.
Let the Progressives worry; the Re-
publican party is doing very nicely,
thanks.-Detroit Free Press.

THE LAND OF PATENTS.

In striving to impress upon con-
gress the necessity for caution in al
tering the patent laws of the nation,
numerous inventors, manufacturers
and other business men have brought
before the country remarkable facts
pertaining to the effect of patented
inventions upon the progress of the
American people. They have set forth,
in the most striking manner, the i'm
mense scope and importance of the
discoveries which are recorded in
the patent office and protected by the
patent laws.
1t appears that the patents issued
in this country every year are nearly
equal to the total number granted in
Great Britain, Germany and France
taken together. The same proportion
holds good in respect to the whole
number of patents which have been
issued in the United States and in the
three great European countries
named. 1t is not far from being an
even balance between America and
these rivals combined. Nearly 1,1O0,-
600 patents have been issued at Wash
ington, and the yearly output is close
to 10000.
OF course, the great majority of IN
ventions covered by this enormous ac-
tivity of the patent office are of little
or no practical importance, but those
which count most have played lead
ing part in the progress of the nation
and the world. Many have been vital
factors in the development of indus
trial civilization and the advance Of
mankind. AS evidence of the powers
and fertility of Yankee brains the
records of the patent office are i'm
pressive in the highest degree, and
the inventions which have been given
to the world in this country are right
" source of great pride to its people.
