CAMP FIRE WORK AND
WHAT TT MEANS.

Because the work of the Camp Fire
Girls is growing in popularity, The
Journal is publishing an interesting
talk on the work by Miss Lucille
Shackleford, one of the most enthusi-
astic members of the organization.
In this first paper Miss Shackle-
ford tells of the law of the wood
gatherers, and in another paper, viii
talk about the law of the Fire-mak-
ers:
In nearly every home of today
there is daughter and where there
is a daughter the fond parents, al
ways want to see her make the most
out of life and be an ideal woman.
If this is so then why don't you let
your daughter join the Camp Fire
Girls? In this organization we have
our work as well as our pleasure.
We neither work nor play all the
time-our organization is for the
good of the coming women of tomor-
row; it helps to bring out the clean
holy womanhood in girls.
In this organization we are taught
everything that girl should know;
sewing, cooking, homework, first aid,
and many other things.
We have our laws to follow the
same as i any other organization
and we also have our degrees. We
are rewarded for our work by beads
which when received by any girl
causes thrill of pride to go through
her. The first degree of Camp Fire
work is the Wood gatherer's degree
with this law:
at is my desire to become Camp
Fire Girl and to obey the law of the
Camp which is:
"Seek beauty,
"Give service,
Pursue knowledge,
"Be trustworthy,
"FTold on to health,
"Glorify work,
"Be happy.
'This law of the Camp Fire Cir
will strive to follow"
Our motto: Make some one happy
every day. Do all things well THAI
come our way.
This is the law a girl has to Learn
when she enters into the Camp Fire
organization and it is a great law in,
deed. It includes a great many beau
tiful thoughts, even though it seems
to be so simple.

7 est of Latin
America S Credit

South American credit has suffered
severely since the outbreak of the war.
"The London Times" has compiled a
list Of the following municipalities
which are either in actual default or
have recently made funding arrange
ments:
CITY Of Bahis, per cent 1912 bonds -

gage bonds In default

vincial loans the same story Of default,
followed as usual by a scheme for max
ing payment in scrip, has TO be told.
The Province of Corrientes, in Argen-
tina, says it cannot pay the per cent
interest on such a small amount as
sI4s, 100, and has therefore been in en-
tire default since August last year.
The State Of Minas Geraes, in Brazil,
is in the same impecunious position,
while the Province Of Buenos Ayres
and the States of Bahia and Para have
all resorted TO the funding scheme de-
vice. which usually means that obliga-
tions are only partially discharged.

This is now the only great country
in the world whose stock Of money
gold is not treated as a national as
set and controlled by national au-
thority. This will probably continue
to be the case after the war. A coun-
try in which the gold stock is con-
centrated will, with other things
equal, have an important advantage
over one in which the gold money is
scattered, as is the case in this coun-
try. That is why the Federal Re
serve Board has been anxious to de-
velop the idea that the proper place
for the reserves Of national banks is
in the Federal Reserve Bank vaults.
In theory every one will admit that
il ought to be so. In banking, how
ever. we are individualists, as in
everything else. a bank that has
learned how to take care OF itself in
all kinds of weather, TO walk through
panics on its own feet, to pay gold on
demand out of It's own vaults-that
bank is extremely loath now sudden
ly to put its trust unreservedly in
the Federal Reserve Bank system
and surrender all Of its gold reserve
money. The head of bank like that
is likely 10 say-has, in fact, been
heard to say: 81 have great conf
dence in the Federal Reserve system,
but have unlimited confidence in the
ability of this bank on its own &C
count TO keep solvent and take care
of its customers. And it will con-
tinue to be able to do that whatever
else happens" At the first sign of
trouble the impulse of that bank will
be to get its gold back from the Fed
eral Reserve system, lock it up in its
own vaults and be prepared in its
own strength to meet all contin-
gencies. 1t is romantic and makes
banking more interesting, perhaps,
but there is positively nothing else to
be said for it.

A country's stock of money gold,
as we have said, ought TO be all in
one place, and not in $4,000 different
bank vaults or in 100000 pockets.
Being all in one place, as now every
European country's gold stock is, its
power of credit could be controlled
effectively. We should not be saying
in our absurd and irresponsible way
that gold imports are bound TO pro-
duce credit imitation. It is not bound
TO do any such thing, but because
everybody has a right TO hold the
gold and because any bank, having
increased its own holdings of gold, is
thereupon free to expand its loans to
borrowers, the effect of gold imports
actually Is and always has been me-
chanically to create credit expansion,
whether such expansion be econom-
ically desirable or undesirable to the
point Of danger.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-12-03

Last week the Wall Street banks
were called upon for 27& million
dollars Of real money-not credit,
but actual hard money, which means
gold or its equivalent. To be able
70 give it up the banks had to cal,
upon a lot Of Stock Exchange Dor
rowers to come and pay off their
loans. In this way loans were re
duced 45Ls million dollars. This had
the effect Of reducing deposits also,
which released the gold money that
had been demanded from the banks.
The money was then sent away,
probably TO the interior. You never
know for sure, because there are so
many directions in which it could
disappear. But that is not the main
point. The Wall Street banks carry
their gold money partly in their own
vaults and partly with the Federal
Reserve Bank Of New York. They
are required by law TO keep mini
mum amount with the Federal Re
serve Bank; the remainder is OPP
tional. They are carrying, in fact,
one-third with the Federal Reserve
Bank and two-thirds in their own
vaults. And last week, when they
were called upon TO part with 279i
millions, they took only 81 millions
out of their own vaults and all the
rest from the Federal Reserve Bank.
The temptation to spare ones very
own gold hoard and draw upon one
around the corner is apparently II
resistible. But the power Of the
Federal Reserve Bank cannot in this
way increase.

way increase

National banks have been steadily
solicited to put larger proportion
of their gold money reserves in the
custody of the Federal Reserve
banks. They have responded in a
half-hearted manner. They could,
if they would, carry all Of their gold
money reserves with the Federal Re
serve banks, keeping in their own
vaults only the amount Of till money
required TO transact their daily bust
ness. Under any theoretically ra-
tional understanding of our com
mercial banking system this should
be done as a matter of course, with
out solicitation. The Federal Re-
serve banks ought to carry the gold
money of this country, as the Bank
Of England carries it for Great
Britain, the Bank of France for
France. the Reichsbank for Germany
and so on. II is preposterous that
so long as we continue TO price the
worlds goods in gold a country's
gold stock should be dispersed among
many independent banks, beyond the
authority Of any central intelligence ;
il is more than preposterous that 1t
should circulate as currency in the
pockets of the people. Gold has been
taken out of the pockets of the peo-
pie Of Europe into the hands OF the
great central banks. II will perhaps
never 90 back into the pockets of the
people. 1t shouldn't. Gold in ones
pocket is money merely. Gold in the
bank is money still and something
more besides, namely, q legal re-
serve" against each dollar of which
the banker may lend three, four or
five dollars Of credit. People ought
not 10 go about carrying legal re-
serves in their pockets. II does not
belong there. We now carry in our
pockets several kinds of money-tat
money, called greenbacks, which have
a very weird history; national bank
rotes, Federal Reserve notes, and
then silver and gold certificates. The
gold certificates are the same as gold,
