How Trust Companies Established
A New Era in Banking Methods

required, come to the trust companies.
Among the. larger and older trust COM
panies and in certain states no effort
is made to make loans based on COM
mercial paper or to grant discounts.
In number of states, however, the
laws permit trust companies to either
negotiate commercial loans or pur-
chase commercial paper. The ten
dency is becoming more pronounced,
however, to leave such business to the
national and state banks of discount,
The great increase in banking re-
sources of trust companies is also due
in large measure to the many other
services which they render to clients,
and is an outgrowth Of such business.
If corporation executes a mortgage
to issue new bonds, it almost always
names trust company as trustee, a
sinking fund may be provided to pay
off obligations as they mature and
balances must be maintained to meet
coupon and dividend payments. Such
I funds are best carried by the trust
companies, and the corporation does
not lose any interest premiums for
idle funds. There are numerous in
stances where banking facilities are
called for in connection with the ap-
pointment of trust companies as exec
utor, trustee under will, as admins
traitor of estates, guardian, or as trus
tee under corporation mortgages and
reorganizations. It stands to reason
that facilities can best be offered by
one institution than in keeping sepa
rate accounts in different banks.
Another reason why trust companies
have become SO successful as banking
institutions is the spirit of courtesy
and accommodation which prevails IL
all successful companies. The up-to
date trust company management
makes depositors, whether they hav'
large or small accounts, feel that the!
are entitled to every courtesy and con
sideration. Special departments ar
maintained for women in, many in
stances. The officers are not burie,
in back rooms, but have their desk
so as to be accessible to all patrons
In fact, trust companies have mad
banking popular and offer facilitie
which truly entitle them to the des
ignation as "the most modern mechar
ism of banking and finance"

disc, it seems that the advertising
should be as distinct and emphatic as
a sign or the selling price of an ar

Discussing this line, Mr.. Nathaniel
G. Fowler, Jr., writing in Printers Ink,
says:

$3.9S shirtwaist is more likely to buy
that waist if she is told what that
waist is and what it will cost her, in
a plain and business-like manner, than
she is if the description of that shirt
waist resembles a bouquet of hot
house flowers and the price is set in
foliage.

valuable statistics, bearing upon the

sources amounting to $5,490, SIC, 900,
and exceeded only by the national and

United States numbered only 120 and
their combined banking resources
amounted to SAL 100000. They have
increased, both in number and in the

pace than any other type of banking

County Department Condemns
244 Sets-Short Weight REM
edied, Says Report.

The first annual report of the
county department of weights and
measures. which was created on Feb
ruary 5. 1912, was submitted by
County Superintendent Arthur Har-
ris before the Board of Freeholders
Yesterday. The first few months
were of necessity only preliminary,
and It was not until April that full
equipment was obtained.
In spite of this handicap. much
good was accomplished by the de-
partment In all cases an attempt
has been made to correct the existing
evils without infiicting any harsh or
unnecessary punishments. Wherever
it was evident that the intention was
to defraud scales were confiscated
and a warning. given the offenders.
In cases where variances were due to
mistakes scales We're adjusted and
instructions given the owners.
Five loads of stone, of seven in
spected, were found to be under
weight Seven loads of coal. out of
a total of twenty-five which were
stopped in transit and rewelghed,
were found short. OF 1,01S packages
of sugar reweighed, ninety-three were
short and of 1872 packages of hutter,
1859 We're not up to the mark.
A total of 5,744 scales, including all
kinds were tested. of these 244 were
condemned, 151 adjusted and 152 con-
f1scated. = H@sE
Four coal dealers were held for the
Grand Jury, charged with giving
short weight, and one grocer was
fined $40 for the same offense. One
dealer was fined $40 for delivering
coal without certificate. An ice
dealer accused of having a false
scale, and a contractor charged with
giving short weight, were discharged
by the Grand Jury.
The expenses of the department to
date, including salaries of the super
intendent and two assistants, were
s4,S7T12. A request is made for an
automobile to facilitate the work of
inspection.
Certain changes are recommended
in the law governing weights and
measures, as follows:
Police magistrates and recorders
in the various municipalities should
have the right to dispose of COM
plants in the same manner as the
police judges in the city of Newark.
Superintendent and assistants should
be given police power. There should
be increasing penalties for violation
of the law. Baskets and boxes con-
tanning vegetables and fruits should
be standardized by making the bas-
kets in only 4. 8, Is and S2-quart
sizes. and berries in pints and quarts
