BANKS MEETING EMER-
GENCIES

m EW people realize the
burden that has been
forced upon the bankers
of the country by the require
ments of the government of the
United States for war purposes.
They have met all emergencies
and there is no need for anxi-
ETY. but they will continue to do
so.
The nation has but one great
purpose-winning the war
and every energy must be
turned in that direction. There
is no effort that can be made
toward this end but it must
first be backed by money, and
providing this is the task that
is being accomplished through
the banks.
Crops are moving faster than
usual. as with fixed prices
there is no inducementl for far
mers to hold their grain. This
fact, with the high prices for

GIN ADVANCE,

ket, is causing very consider
able expansion of credit, max
ing business requirements un-
usually heavy.
1t becomes self-evident,
therefore, in view of the APP
preaching Liberty Loan that
there must be some prepara-
tions made for meeting the re-
quirementS of the government.
The government must have i'm
mense quantities of money, as
planned now one-third from
taxes, and two-thirds in bonds
or other obligations.
The banks are quite able to
meet thes enormous strain, as
they are in a sound position.
Behind it all is the federal re-
serve system, which may be
said to have almost accomplish
ed miracles in stabilizing the
credit facilities.
Behind all this there is a lso
compensation in the fact that
all the money required
to be raised for the government
will be spent in the United
States, and will have the effect
of stimulating war industries
beyond the widest dreams.
