Ia the blonde Eskimos discovered 10y

My own belief is that the white
Esldmos discovered by Stefansson in
Victoria Land have the blood Of some

Inns party in their veins. Franklin

counts for their white blood more
satisfactorily, it seems to me. than 10y

careful not TO take any action with

criticism of them. They do feel Cat least
leading bankers of this city feeD thai
unless they make suggestions or call
attention to what they may regard
as defects in the measure they will
be likely to find that they are accused
of sulking, of being of resentful dis
position.
Therefore, they will in good faith
make such suggestions as seem ex-
pedient. but they will be careful not
so to speak or act as to justify the
belief that they have entered into a
sort of tacit agreement in case the
bill becomes a law in substantially
its present form to surrender gradually
their national bank charters and reor-
ganize under state bank charters. Oc-
casional1y it is reported that this or
that banker does contemplate action OF
that kind. But the disposition on the
part of the American bankers so far as
that is understood by bankers in this
CITY is to do no more than suggest
improvements and then to accept in
good faith what ever banking law this
Congress enacts and to attempt in good
faith to readjust themselves to it's pro-
visions.
If it is found after sufficient tests
that the fundamental principle of the
law is not in accord with reasonable,
healthful and advantageous banking
then it is not unlikely that from time
to time one or another of the nation
al banks may discuss the expediency
of surrendering national charters and
reorganizing as state institutions. This
will not be done, however, until a
thorough test of the new law has been
made.
