THE GOLF BORE WHO
TALKS ABOUT THE GAME

In the July American Magazine
James Montgomery Fiagg. the cele-
brated wit and artist. does an amusing
piece in words and pictures about golfs
In the following passage he tells about
the golf member who talks about his
game:
IN golf, as In bridge. the fascination
lies in the postmorteming. II speaks
well for the self.restraint Of men that
there are not more cases Of man
slaughter. mayhem and homicide In
golf club cafes than are on record.
There Is no man living who can listen
with equanimity. and without a grow
ing desire to take human life. to the
detailed account Of another mans
shots.
And yet no man who has ever
played eighteen holes In his life can
refrain from cornering another golfer
who is trying to stink on the porch.
and telling him how he made the
eleventh hole in two. and how he
fooled his approach on number
twelve and just missed holing out In
three, and how his caddie stepped on
his ball on the thirteenth and tried TO
sell it TO him for a dime and bla. bla-
bla The other golfer doesn't give
a whoop in Idaho. He only listens be-
cause he has lost bis breath telling
another man about bis morning

circulation In other words, if a bank
had not already issued that amount of
currency under the old plan, it could
not benefit under the new.
The provision was inserted in the
old Aldrich-vreeland act as much to
protect market value Of the govern
ment bonds as anything else. 1t was
to encourage the banks Of the country
TO hold 40 per cent OF their capital and
surplus in government bonds, 80 that
they could issue currency by them,
and be in position to take advantage
OF the new currency plan. This, how
ever, did not suit many of the larger
banks Of the country, however, partic-
ularly those of New York, which
thought that the purchase of large
blocks of low interest bearing govern
ment bonds, the value of which was
recognized to be declining, would be
a poor investment. Their judgment
| in this respect has been justified by q
substantial decline in the price OF
bonds, which did not encourage other
banks to buy them. In an emergency
however, these banks found them
selves shut off from the opportunity
to issue currency under the Aldrich
Vreeland plan. To relieve them con
gress has removed this restriction.
1t is matter of some debate wheth
er another step which congress took al
the same time-that Of permitting
state banks to issue currency under
the Aldrich-Vreeland bill if they would

southern situation, Senator Owen also
introduced an amendment which VIII
allow to enter the federal reserve sys'
tenn banks in town OF not more thah
1000 inhabitants which have capi'ai
of only $4,000. Under the original ac'
the minimum capital requirements
were those formerly required OF ma
tional banks, and $4,000 was the
smallest capital upon which any panA
could enter. Again this plan would
aid the cotton farmers, since remark
ably large proportion of the banking
capital Of the south is in state banks
and trust companies in the very small
towns, where the banks. as result,
are very small themselves. These
amendments, however, have met the
approval OF the federal reserve board
because they think it would not only
be Of benefit to the SOUTH but tnat
the bringing of these small banks
would be a source OF strength 10 tho
federal reserve system itself, enorm-
ously increasing in the aggregate It's
capital and strength.
| With the further idea OF bringing
mere banks into the system than would
! otherwise come in, and Of making pos
sable, through this means, the issuing
of still more emergency currency
where it might be needed, Senator
Owen is urging another amendment
which would extend the time in which
the member banks can pay for tneir
stock in the federal reserve banks
which under the plan they would Dc
required to buy. This would lessen
the financial strain upon the banks at
this time, and prevent the liquidating
of many OF the present assets OF the
banks in order TO pay their stock IN
the reserve institutions.

agree to Join the federal reserve board
later accomplished anything. 1t is
the opinion Of the treasury department
that another amendment or act will
have to be passed to take care Of the
situation. 1t seems that in permitting
state banks and trust companies to ie-
sue currency under the Aldrich-Vree-
land bill congress neglected to repeal
an old measure which was designed
to restrict to national banks the bust
ness Of issuing currency not put out
by the government direct. This i'm
posed a tax of 10 per cent on all cur
rency issued by banks other than ma
tional banks. Naturally. some persons
in authority contend, unless this is re-
pealed there will be very little issuing
Of emergency currency under the
terms Of the -vreeland bill by
state banks or trust companies.
Another measure which was intro
duced by Senator Owen would raise
the proportion Of its unimpaired capi-
tai and surplus which a bank might
loan on commercial paper and still re.
main in the reserve system from 80
to rs per cent, while an accompanying
amendment makes it clear that bills oi
exchange or domestic or foreign ac
ceptances having not more than three
months to run may be construed as
commercial paper. This is the most
important amendment Of all from iht
view point OF the cotton states. foi
whom it was especially written.
Under this amendment the banks
can loan the farmers on their ware
house receipts, transformed into bills
of exchange. up to rs per cent of the
unimpaired capital and surplus of al
the banks in the south, virtually.
