Concentration Of Power.

The majority report after declaring
the existence Of a money trust said
that increased concentration Of con-
troll Of money and credit had been
effected principally as follows
First, through consolidation OF
competitive or potentially competitive
banks and trust companies, Whlch
consultations in turn have recently
brought under sympathetic manage
ment.
Second, through the same power Of
interests becoming large stockholders
in potentially competitive banks and
Third. through the confederation
OF potentially competitive banks and
trust companies by means of the sys-
tenn Of interlocldng directorates.
Control Of Fiscal agencies.
Fourth, through the influence
which the more powerful banking
houses, banks and trust companies
have secured in the management Of in
surauce companies, railroads, prOduc-
ing and trading corporations and pub
lie utility corporations, by means OF
stOckhOldfngs. voting trusts, fiscal
agency contracts, or through apply
ing the money requirements Of railway,
industrial and public utilities corpora

ness policies.
Fifth through partnership or Joint
account arrangements between a few
of the leading banking houses, banks
and trust companies in the purpose
Of securing issues OF the interstate
corporations. accompanied by under
standings OF recent grOwth-sometimes
called banking ethics'-Which have
had the effect OF effectually destroy

A Thrift Suggestion.
(By Edwin A. Nye.)

The slot machine. which in thiA
country everywhere is in evidence, is
almost unknown in France.
Why?
centimes one by one until he has
enough to buy a rente. Il government
bond. 1t may not be for a large
amount. but there 1t is. principal and
interest. to him and his forever.
And We?
We as a people be,iev pennies were
made for immediate distribution. No
sooner do we get them, If we do not
buy editions of the evening papers.
than we %patronize the slot machine.
We must be rid of our cents.
Which is not a pun. We MAY have
no need or immsdsates.d desire for the
chewing gum or candy or cigar or
drinking cup or what not which the
machines everywhere vend The desire
Is TO disseminate small change.
We are a nation of penny pushers.
We care nothing evidently for small
coins. There are localities In the west
where the penny is held in contempt.
All commodities, even the newspapers,
are 5 cents.
Thrift?
We do not know the meaning of the
word as the French understand 1t.
When the French government wants
money 1t needs only offer IA loan ex-
pressed in small denomination. In al
WOSl every case the roam is over ,
subscribed the first day II is offered.
We spend our pennies: the French
save them and buy bonds.
In France every girl, however
humble. when married has her dot"
her little marriage portion. 1t is the
aggregate of careful saving of small
coins.
The French .peasantry are the most
thrifty and most cOntented people in
the world. With an absurdly small
holding OF an acre or two Of land they
are independent.
We waste more than we save.
Noting the disposition Of the aver
age American TO push pennies into
slot machines. a recent writer among
US makes this suggestion:
Why not each of us own his own
machine?
Why not?
Here is h opportunity for reducing
the high cost OF living Or the cost Of
high living. Place a slot machine near
your front door. so that morning and
evening as you go out and in you ma
utilize you copper cents.
Think it over. Even II you do not
install the machine. the suggestion may
put you in the way OF thriftier habits.
Quit patronizing the slot machines
and begin ~patronizing yourself.
