large trust institutions might deem II
expedient to offer to pay 3l@ per cent IN
terest on city deposits and there was
possibility in view of the extraordinary
financial conditions, that some other in
stitution might see that offer and go
it one better. 4..eA
Competition for deposits began 20 or
lbs years ago. In the earlier and more
|dignified time of banking in New York
it would have been regarded as an evil
dence of unhealthful condition if any
bank were to attempt to secure deposits
by offering to pay interest upon them.
In fact. years ago in the earlier days or
banking, at least in Great Britain, the
bankers did not pay interest on depos-
it's, but exacted a commission for TAX
ing care of deposits.
Mr. Harding is in agreement with
many bankers of this city respecting the
Iexpediency of SO regulating the payment
of interest upon deposits as to put an
end to competition which may before 1t
has run it's course lead to harmful re-

COMPETITION IN REVERSE

This competition is simply the reverse
of the kind of competition which the
railways carried on until by law pro-
hibted. When A. B. Stickney was build
ing the Great Western system, having
in view Omaha as the western terminal.
he announced a certain rate which his
company would charge for transporting
grain from the Missouri valley across
iowa and Illinois to Chicago. 1t was a
low rate but 1t opened up an oppor-
tunity to competition of which Marvin
IIughitt Of the Chicago Northwestern
road took instant advantage He am
nounced that his road would transport
grain from the Missouri river to Chica-
go for a rate below that fixed by Mr..
Stickney. Thereupon Mr.. Stickney came
back with reduced offer and Mr.
Hughitt met it and announced a still
further reduction. This competitive war
occasioned a great deal OF comment,
partly for the reason that Mr.. HughItt
was competing as was said at the time,
with phantom road, since many miles
of the Great Western awaited construc-
tion before Omaha was reached. Those
who were experts at figures compiled ta-
bles which showed how greatly to the
disadvantage of the Northwestern COM
petition of this kind would prove to be.
1t was finally abandoned. The railroads
in their competitive struggles for busi-
ness represented the reverse of the meth
DDS adopted by a bank to increase it's
deposit lines by offering unusual or un-
accustomed rates of interest The banks
by offering increase in interest
rates; the railroads competed by offer
ing reduction in rates for traffic. but the
Fundamental principle was the same.
This discussion between the bankers or
the clearing house and Mr.. Harding is
of much more than local interest. since
If the proposed regulation wese adopted
it would affect balances in New York
banks which represent the deposits made
here by banks in other parts of the
country,
Sometimes there has been competition
between cities. When the old national
banking law was in existence the banks
in Boston or some of them We're accus-
toned to tempt deposits by offering IN

times a little more. The Boston banks
were by law permitted to deposit in the
New York banks certain proportions

deposits in New York. the Boston banks
received never less than . per cent intcr-
est sometimes more This method led

HOW HARDING GAINS
IN PUBLIC ESTEEM
Nv HOLLAND


New York, March d-(Special Wv p
G. Harding, who is a member of the fed
eral reserve board at Washington, would,
presumably, not deem it worth while 10
visit New York SO that he might con-
suit with bankers respecting the pro-
posed rule which if adopted would limit
the rate of interest paid on deposits to
2 per cent less than the existing rate for
s0-day rediscounts at the federal reserve
banks unless he and the federal reserve
board looked upon the matter as Of
more than local Importance.
Mr., Harding has, since he became one
of the original members of the federal
reserve board, increased, if that were
possible, the high reputation he had
earlier gained in New York city for his
abilities as a banker at Birmingham. He
appears to take very seriously the recent
disposition manifested in some quarters
to tempt deposits away from some banks
~ the Offering of higher interest rates.
I There is no doubt that the OPINION
commonly held among bankers, at least
those Who are members of the clearing
house association is, in favor of some
kind of9reguation such as would put an
end to excessive competition with intent
to secure an increase in the deposit line
Some years ago there arose some dis
cussion based upon the disposition shown
by certain trust institutions to increase
their deposit lines by Offering tempting
rates of interest, SO great in fact AS to
persuade depositors in other banks to
withdraw those deposits and put them
where they would earn larger interest.
Nothing was done at the time how
lever, in the direction of regulating this
competition. The feeling seemed to be
that sooner or later it would be found
to be as harmful as was the cutthroat
competition which characterized some
OF the, railroad arrangements 80 years
ago.
There was a recent illustration of the
ability to secure a large additional de-
post through the offering of tempting
rates in interest. One of the national
banks OF New York secured a transfer OF
New York city deposits amounting to
several millions, which had been for
long time carried by one of the strongest
banks in the world. The interest rate
which New York city had been receiving
was per cent. Interest at the rate Of
r. per cent was offered by another bank
and that proved to be sufficient to PER-
suade the city to transfer its deposits TO
the institution which offered interest at
the rate of per cent.
