THE new BANKING LAW.
W.-Genesis of the Act.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

While agitation for a general revision
of our banking and currency laws has
been conducted with vigor for the last
ten years. the accomplishment of the
banking legislation of 1913 was directly
due to the disastrous bankers panic Of
1907 The loss, blight and hardship which
followed that severe crisis awoke in all
quarters a determination to achieve re-
FORM Business became intolerant of the
theory that financial panics must be en-
dured every SO often. just as recurring
activity and depression in trade.
Strange as 1t might seem. bountiful
crops were ready for removal to the mar
kets and industrial order books were full
when the financial Generalization of 1917
ingulfed the country. The trouble was
due in no part to the business men. 1t
was purely a banking convulsion. 1t be-
gan as a small local disturbance in New
York-that city in which more than $780,
100000 of the cash reserves Of other banks
throughout the country was on deposit
and for various reasons 1t was not check
ed In time to prevent other institutions in
the great financial center from becoming
involved.
An exposure Of questionable methods
Of a certain group of financiers in control
of some of the New York banking houses
filed the newspapers in every state and
precipitated a general feeling of distrust.
In anticipation of trouble the banks be-
gan calling on New York for the repay
ment of part of their reserves 1t was
like the scream of "FiFe" in crowded
theater. The New York bankers were
unable to pay any considerable part of
their $500 000, 600 Of bankers deposits. and
it became necessary for them to suspend
cash payments entirely and to handle the
business of their local customers by the
issuance Of clearing house certificates-an
extra-legal emergency device.
When the New York banks issue clear
loans and the suspension of cash pay
ments is in immediate order in every
part OF the land. The bankers realize
that they can no longer count on any
part Of their vast reserves In the me
tropolis. A wild scramble for cash at any
price ensues among the 5000 banks of
the country.

Not only were the farmers forced by
want of credit to sell their produce for

All this followed the difficulties of a group

When. after the resumption Of their
normal activities by the banks, the peo-
pie took stock of the general destruction
and suffering which had been caused by
the breaking down of the country's
credit organization they determined that
the banking system was In bad need of

been a bankers panic, the price had

merchants and manufacturers and by
the whole body of their employees.
