Munsey's Share.

The question was raised by the clearing
hose as to how much money Mr.. Nun
sey would put up. and on this point the
success or failure of the governments
plan TO aid in restoring confidence hung
in the balance.
The situation was critical in the ex-
treme. II was 4 o'clock in the morn
ing. Word had gone out to the citi-
zens of Washington through the news
papers that the United States Trust
Company had been absorbed and that
depositors were guaranteed against
loss by the Munsey Trust Company.
which had taken over the United
states Trust Company.
Under this pressure the men at that
meeting associated with me in the
mana cement of the Munsey Trust
Company volunteered the statement
that ] would bring on from New York
half million dollars and have it here
early IN the morning.
The strained situation was further ag-
gravated by Il suggestion from Mr.. F'lath-
eT OF the Riggs National Bank that this
money be deposited with the American
Security and Trust Company. an affiliated
Institution with the Riggs National Bank
but this suggestion was turned down hard
by the men of the Munsey Trust Com
pany.

veloped in that meeting that there was
objection on the part of some banks to
this, loan being handled through three
banks or four. whichever the number
was scheduled to be. The result Of the
discussions, in a word. was that eleven
rational banks should participate in the
matter each to take $4,000 of the gov
ernment money and turn il over to the

all very well. but that it was necessar,
to ratify the enthusiasm by votes.
To Elect New Congress.

The measures taken also provide fof
the election of new congress, since
the one elected to take the place OF thai
dissolved by Huerta is to serve out an
unexpired term, which should terminate
September Is.
The reason given for multiplying the
elections was the insufficiency of the
number of votes cast. 1t was stated
that the entire number of voting places
in the republic is 14,225, and that re-
turns were received from 7O7.
1t was noted that the Catholic depu-
ties absented themselves from the ses-
sion.
The action of the new congress was no
surprise to most people, since 1t was but
reiteration of Huerta's repeated state
ments. 1t serves to reassure doubling
ones that the acting president retains
his grip the political situation.

What Do the
Critics Say?

You like to know before you go
and see the play. The paper whets
your appetite.
The advertising in live news
paper like The Star acts as d
similar index to what the stores
have for you.
It tells what is being sold and
where. 1t hints at the new styles,
the new colors, the new shades-it
pictures things to be seen.
Advertising. of course. sometimes
talks with the voice of unrestrained
enthusiasm.
But il is always interesting-al-
ways up to date-and each day it
becomes a more and more impor-
tant factor in your life.
People read advertising these
days just as they read the news,
because it keeps them informed.
It's appeal is intensified according
to it's attractiveness-and adver-

Not Wholly Business Move.

II was not at all necessary to the Nun
sey Trust Company or to myself that it
absorb the United States Trust Company
or any other bank. The Munsey Trust
Company had been in business only six
months. but had already demonstrated its
strength and standing in this community.
Its absorption of the United States Trust
Company was not. therefore, wholly
business move. 1t was done in large part
TO save a serious situation.
In my judgment the failure of the
United States Trust Company with It's
05,C01 deDositoTs would have dragged
down other banks in Washington. but the
MuEsey Trust Company would not have
been one of them. 1t could have paid of
Immediately its nearly 1000 depositors
and would have had large margin "a
ready cash on hand.
SO il was not TO protect itself that the
Munsey Trust Company took on the obli-
cations of the United States Trust Com
pany- What it did was as free TO other
banks OF the town to do as il was to the
Munsey Trust Company. and however
ready other banks might have been TO do
what the Munsey Trust Company did do,
the fact stands out clear that il was the
Munsey Trust Company that acted i'll the
1natter-not some other bank-and that il
was the Munsey Trust Company that
shouidered the responsibilities restoring
confidence to bank depositors generally.
