Nation Equal to War Financing
Strain if Kept Busy, Says Banker
Charles H. Sabn Emphasizes Need of Business Men and
Wage Farmers Being Able to Make Money to
Lend the Government

the minimum reserve of 40 per cent in
gold against Federal Reserve notes
outstanding. had a reserve of 85 per
cent against net deposits. This re-
serve was made up principally Of gold,
as is indicated by the fact that out Of
the total reserve holdings of the twelve
banks. which were $l,733 100000, only
S45,000,000 consisted Of legal tender
notes, silver, etc.
The Federal Reserve banks are re-
qurcd to keep minimum reserve of
S5 per cent in lawful money against
net deposits. On the basis Of excess
reserves over 35 per cent against net
deposits, and on the assumption that
all of this reserve was to be used in
the extension of credit in the form of
deposits, the twelve banks would be
able to extend approximately $2,000,-
100000 Of credit to member banks.
"This So 900 900 900 Of credit" says Mr..
Sabin, EXTENDED by the Federal Reserve
be considered by the member banks as
reserve held in the Federal Reserve
banks. On the basis of this reserve,
it would be possible for the member
banks to in turn extend credit of APP
proXimately $4,000, 100000"
No Cause for Alarm
"Wc shall unqucstionably have to
draw upon our enormous reserves the
banker says in conclusion, "but there is
no reason for alarm on that account.
This country is financially strong
enough and has sufficient wealth. pro-
ducing power to withstand the strain
and to effect the necessary readjust-
ments without serious consequences.
"ln the development of our hereto
fore latent productive capacity, which
creates new credit resources, lies one
of our strongest sinews Of war, for it
is on the continuance Of our industries
and their elasticity that the state it.
self depends for existence The part
business is playing in the winning Of
this war is incalculable and it must be
cheercd to the task.
"Wc should not overlook the fact
that this country is so we'll able TO
bear the tremendous financial burdens
Of the war because Of its sound vigor-
Gus business conditions. Our present
taxation programme is estimated to
furnish money for as large a percent
age of war expenditures as is that Of
Great Britain. And England and the
United States, we should remember,
are taxing industry and wealth more
heavily than are any other countries in
the world. But if America remains
busy and prosperous the financial bur-
den Will not be an overwhelming one
1t is certain that the great resources
Of our country are ample to meet the
needs of this crisis. This is no time
to be stampeded into false Judgment

Heatless Monday
In Wall Street
Bankers Keep Busy, De-
spite General Suspen-
sion of Business

Officials of some Of the larger banks
in the Wall Street district put in
buster day than they had anticipated
Yesterday in view of the suspension OF
trading on the stock exchanges and the
closing down Of business generally.
The reason for this was that many mcr-
chants and others whose places OF
business were closed on account OF the
fuel saving order seemed to think 1T
GOOD opportunity to talk things over
With their bankers. AS q result, Of
licials of some of the banks received
many more visitors than on an ordl-
nary business day.
Not a great deal of business was
transacted over the counter and little
effort was made to negotiate loans.
In the Offices Of J. 2. Morgan e. Co.
nearly all the leading partners were at
their desks, including Mr.. Morgan him
self In other private banking firms
and investment houses, however, little
business was transacted Many bond
firms did not open for business, at all,
and those who did operated with great
ly reduced working forces. At the Of
fees Of the National City Company it
was estimated that not more than
per CcIlJ Ol ClC SIdll NciC Ou uuI!.
The effect of the closing Of the
brokerage offices was apparent in the
absence Of congestion in the corridors
and elevators of the big downtown Of
fee buildings. In the Equitable Build
ing, however, where are located a large
number Of concerns that are exempt
under the Fuel Administrator ruling,
The eight elevators that were kept run
ming were filled to capacity until after
the noon hour, when the tenants began
to go home. At II Broadway about
the only activity to be seen was in the
quarters of the United States Steel
Corporation. on the seventeenth and
eighteenth floors Only three Of the
ten elevators in this building were in
use and only one of the big electric
lights in the lower hall was turned on.
Similar conditions prevailed at ~
Broadway and other buildings tenantcd
largely by Stock Exchange firms and
OF hers dealing in securities

Money and Credit

Although the banks were open YES
terday business was confined mostly to
routine Office work. Little attempt was
made to negotiate loans except in cases
where borrowers had paper falling due
and desired to renew it. Where such
accommodation was granted it was on
basis of 5l2 to 6 per cent for indus
trial loans running for sixty to ninety
days. A few note brokers', who made
the rounds Of the Street. found bank
ers wholly Indifferent to their offerings
OF commercial paper. The best regular
maturities were offered on a basis of
ols to 54 per cent.
AS the Stock Exchange and the cot
ton market were closed there was no
occasion to negotiate demand loans.

AS the Chicago Board of Trade de-
cded to keep open yesterday, the local
produce exchange was also in session
for couple Of hours.
Trading was mostly confined 20 corn
and oats, but not much business was
transacted n either.
Corn held firm within narrow limits.
The whole situation is dominated by
the question of transportation. 1t was
said that the country was begging for
cars in which to ship corn to market
and that shippers wcrc willing to sell
at comparatively reasonable figures.
The railroad situation. however, was
further complicated by another snow
storm over large part Of the belt.
Further delays now are regarded dan
gerous, as large percentage of
this years crop was of low grade as
the result CT early frosts last fall. and
unless this corn can be shipped to mar
ket before mild weather sets in in the
spring mack Of it will be lost.

Oats.-The spot position was again
strong and this served to impart a firm
undertone to the entire market. Ex-
parters were said to be over bidding
Chicago at country points. This in

the movement continues light were the
principal sustaining factors.

this market was the especial efforts
being put forth by the food admins

Europe that we will furnish 75,0O0,0OO

The above rates express the cost Of

can dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling at, say, $475lSs. The intrinsic
parity is $4.S63s per pound. Thus, you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars are at premium,
which is owing to the fact that in Eng
