Russian Banking Chaos
Prof. Emery Says Future of In.
stitutions Is Uncertain

Banking conditions in Russia are
extremely chaotic, according to Pro
fossor Henry G. Emery, formerly Pro
lessor Of Political Economy at Yale,
who returned last month from Petro-
grad al tier making an extensive study
OF the commercial, industrial and finan-
cial situation in Russia for the Guar
anty Trust Company, with which
he is affiliated. Professor Emery
went abroad in September. 1916,
and after leaving Russia early this
year. was taken prisoner by the Ger
mans and held for several weeks later
beng released and sent to Berlin.
Professor Emery says that officially
there are no banks in Russia now ex-
ceptlng the state bank which has alb
sorbed all the others. Private business
is IN large measure suspended and
ordinary bank operations have been
suspended with it, He says what the
final solution will be regarding the
assets and liabilities of the former
banks is a question difficult to deter
mine.
A striking feature of the situation
III Russia, according to Professor
Emery, was the slowness of the busi-
ness world in realizing that the big
figures and the bank activity did not
represent sound business prosperity.
but was primarily the result Of an in
iated condition all along che line.
In Germany, the first thing to attract
attention of the observer, was the tre
mendous increase in the annual bal
ance sheets of the banks. Up to the
time Professor Emery left Berlin there
was no indication of any mistrust of
the German banks, or anything to in
dicate that their position was not both
solvent and liquid. On the other hand
it was clear that the great increase
on both sides of the balance sheet
did not represent d corresponding in
crease in normal industrial and COM
mercial development.

to admire nerve and ability to do the
unusual, because those are traits
characteristic of our own people.
The Germans viii have plenty of
chance to observe those marks of
Americanism. WIN they admire them

agents abroad to find out exactly what
prospective customers demand
