GUARANTY OF DEPOSITS

The Senate is considering two bills
which provide the guaranty Of bank
deposits This vas the plan adyo-
Gated so Strcnuously by Mr. Bryan in
the last ot his numerous presidential
campaigns. and hr had at least the
satisfaction TO see several Western
States forcing their banks 10 adop; this
plan. OF course it would be very de-
sirahin to have i guaranty Of absolute
safety for all banks. But how IS il
10 be- gotten" The mode ~ procedure
in the States where il was introduced
was to have thr banks contribute part
"a heir money 10 the guaranty fund.
This plan is defective because il COM
pclS tho sound bank 20 contribute 10
the support CT tllH unSound one. The
only reliable method Of providing safe.
ty consists ot a fa-.rrachins. frequent
and careful! supervision.
Tho bulk of bank losses occu.
through careless granting OF credit.
and only 2 small portion through dis
honesty In times of imitation. Of pro-
motion nf bubble companies, of eI-
c2SSive stock watering. weak banks
collapse. while strong ones survive.
Periods of wild SPECULATION cannot be
prevented b. a bank guaranty fund.
Regulations limiting the amount of
credit thai may be granted by banks
would be more effective. Such meas
ures OF p-ncautioH may prevent the
failure OF banks and mako a guaranty
fund unnecessary.

MILLIONS NEEDED

II is now generally understood tina;
a minimum io:ce Of from three TO five
millions SHOULD BE- provided by this
country to turn tho scales in ne grea;
world conflict. Secretary Baker puts
the present strength of our army in
France at over 100000 men Our to,
tai present enlisted force exceeds :!
million and half The War Depart
ment asks now that this lie increased
to three millions during the ensuing
year, and that the President &c author.
ized to make further increases as he
may deem wise. Competent military
authorities estimate a minimum force
OF fre million men necessary till the
end Of the next year. 1t would indeed
be fatal to underestimate the size OF
our job. Most OF our trouble has come
from such underestimation. We might
have had close 70 million in Franco
By this time If we had started last
year TO set that number there. This
Is tho sort OF mistake VIC mist not per.
NIT to happen again. Our safety and
the safety Of orr allies depends upon
knowing the facts and being prepared
to meet them.
Germany and Austria have suffered
heavily in this war. but there is no rca,
son TO assume that their Hlan power
has been greatly reduced. They are
countries Of large families. At least a
million and a quarter Of young men
como Of military age in them annually
OF these, probably a million arc taken
into the service. Il is impossible that
the permanent casualties have exceed
ed that number annually. Russia. with
