Tribute to the Banks.

(From the Montreal Journal of Com
merce)
In his address yesterday before the
Canadian Club, the Hon. w. T. White
paid striking tribute to the cour-
ageous way in which the Canadian
banks have met the situation and ex-
pressed the opinion that the banks
are now in a position to take care Of
all the legitimate loans which, they
would be called upon to make in Can
ada. He was also of the opinion that
the Emergency Banking Legislation
put upon the statute books a few
months ago would prevent any scare
ity Of funds in Canada at a future
time.
