BUSINESS GOOD
IN CANADA
No Financial Depression, and
None Since the War Began.

N. n Wei-knOWn correspondent or an
important Western daily paper recent
ly made an extended visit to Western
Canada, and In summing up the re-
suits, after going thoroughly into con-
ditions there, says there is no financial
depression in Canada, nor has there
been anything Of the sort since the
war began. Anyone who has watched
the barometer Of trade, and seen the
bank clearings of the different cities
grow and continue to grow will have
arrived at the same conclusion. The
trade statistics reveal like situation.
The progress that the farmers are
making Is highly satisfactory. AS this
correspondent says: ut is true there
have been adaptations to meet new
conditions, and taxes have been re-
vised, and that a very large burden Of
added expense in many lines has been
assumed, but 1t has all been done me-
thodically, carefully and with full re-
gard for the resources to be called on.
"That this has been done fairly and
wisely is proved by the present COM
Portable financial position.
with the exception Of a restricted
area in the east, Canada is not an In
dustrial country. The greater portion
Of the Dominion must be classed as
agricultural area, with only an infini-
teslmal part Of It fully developed.
Lacking complete development, the
agricultural portion Of Canada has
naturally placed its main dependence
upon fewer resources than would be
the case In the States. Even in peace
times. business would be subject to
more frequent and wider fluctuations,
due to the narrower foundation upon
which 1t rests.
THUS, Canada has been able to
come up to the war with efficiency and
sufflciency and to maintain and even
advance Its civilian activities.
"Canada's first element of financial
strength lay in its branch bank sys-
TEN. This system has two great ad-
vantages: It makes the financial re-
sources Of the Dominion fluid so that
supplies Of capital can run quickly
from the high spots to the low spots I;
also, II places at the command Of each
individual branch the combined re-
sources Of the whole institution so
that there is an efficient safeguard
against severe strain at any one
point.
Here in Winnipeg, the all-Canada
banking houses maintain big, strong
branches and, as elsewhere in the
Dominion, these held to an attitude of
saneness and solidity that prevented
even the start Of any financial dis
turbance.
That business generally is now COM
ing strong on an even keel is largely
due to the absolute refusal of the
banks, both branch and Independent,
to exhibit the slightest signs Of ex-
element or apprehensiveness.
"FOr all Canada the savings bank
agures are astonishing. Beginning with
1913, they are, for the fiscal year end.
