1t is safe to say that the defects OF our
independent Treasury have been much
exa g Grated.
Change in Method and that such
Of Handling Funds have been
greatly reduced by proceeding of
the Secretary of the Treasury. taken
in January. 1913. which made de-
cided change in the method of handling
public funds. This order provided that
the daily receipts Of the government
should be placed with the national bank
repositories to the credit of the treas
urer of the United States. and that dis
bursements should be made by warrant or
check drawn on the treasurer. but pay
able by national bank repositories. as
well as by the Treasury and subtreas-
uries The new method of administering
its moneys was adopted by the Treasury
for the purpose Of keeping the great sums
of money represented in the government S
revenues continually at the service OF
business. In his report for 1913 Score
tary McAdoo stated that 1.-THE system
appears to respond to the public require
ments. and to be accomplishing the pur-
pose for which it was devised
It has been complained that the dispo-
sition Of Treasury funds in the national
banks has been accompanied by unavoid
able discrimination. some banks receiving
government balances OF many millions.
while others have held only nominal bal
ances of $1,000. Further. 1t is charged
that political influence is brought to bear
in securing these United States deposits.
Lastly. the bankers have complained that
banking is no part of the governments
proper business: that note issue Is a func-
ton exclusively belonging to commercial
banks. who alone are in position to prop
erly regulate the supply of money to the
market demands. and that the United
States has usurped these banking func-
lions at a great and useless expense.

THE new BANKING Law.
III.-Our Independent
Treasury.
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

One of the most maligned features Of
our banking system has been for years
our independent Treasury. Inasmuch as
the independent Treasury is to be pre-
served under the new banking and cur
rency act. it will be of interest to ex-
anime its relation to the banking situa-
ton and the objections which have been
raised against it before proceeding with
the consideration of the federal reserve
act.
The independent Treasury was estab-
lished In 1916. After the expiration OF
the charter Of the second Bank of the
United States. the government adopted
the plan of depositing its money in state
banks selected by the Secretary OF the
Treasury. There followed an era of wild
cat banking. during which many of the
state banks collapsed. Then Congress
devised the independent Treasury system
for the safeguarding OF the government
funds.
Our Treasury is really a central bank
of deposit. in which the government is
the only depositor. and from which there
are no borrowers. 1t is the custodian OF
the governments revenues. the collection
agency of moneys due to the United
States the supervisor of the national
banking system, with direct control OF
the currency Of the nation. and II issues
all legal tender and token money, with
the exception of such bank notes as are
issued by delegated authority by the ma
tional banks Even for these notes the
government has a secondary hapihty.
The Treasury disburses government funos
upon the order of Congress.
The United States is the only country

Charlottesville, June 15.-Sut akinp
at the commencement celebration of
the Washington and Lee Litersry go,

night, DR.. Albert Shaw of New York
praised the course OF American Off
cials since their occupation OF Vera
Cruz.
Whatever might be SAID. or felt
regarding our military occupation of
Vera Cruz" he said. ut is easy to
discover universal satisfaction In the
sanitary and police reforms instituted
as IL by magic under, the dir ection of
our trained officials. And this would
seem to give the key to any possible
future mission we might have in the
troubled country to the southward of
us. Peace. order, wise institutions of
health and education, can In due
time bring Mexico into some fullness
Of life.
"The conditions would seem TO
point not to annexation, but to more
or less temporary relationship OF pro-
lection and oversight, by means OF
which we could help the Mexicans find
peace, order and Justice. while also
aiding them to apply the intensive
forms of domestic statesmanship
which are resulting so brilliantly in
Porto Rico and the Philippines, and
which we have exemplified for the
moment at. Vera Cruz" t'ii-S

This association has already matur-

Because Of the unusual building
activity now being experienced there
Is an unusual demand for money de-
clared Mr.. Clfnkscales. "and our asso-
ciatlpn not only has demands for the
