control. On the subject of returning
the property to the stockholders after
the war, Mr.. Carlton was quoted thus !:
"That will depend upon the attitude of
the public toward government owner
ship. If the government gives addi-
tional facilities and the public regard
the operation as successful, / do not be-
lieve the wires will ever be returned to
the present owners" Western Union

Demands on local banks are be-
coming larger every day. Though
the crop moving season is still we'll
ahead, Southern and Western banks,
apparently short Of funds, are draw
ing heavily on New York. They
are not only reducing balances, but
are obtaining funds by borrowing
on Treasury certificates of indebt-
edness. A constantly larger share
of the country's financial burden is
falling on the shoulders of the great
banks and trust companies in this
city. And that means that the
money situation is looming up as
an increasingly important factor in
stock market operations. 1t may
soon become the dominant factor,
for there are several things point
ing to the probability that money
for speculative purposes will be-
come dearer and harder to obtain.
Manifestly, the banks cannot
meet all the demands made upon
them unless they adopt a policy Of
unlimited credit imitation, and it is
unlikely that they will follow such
a preposterous course, even were
the Federal Reserve Board to coun-
tenance it, which is extremely un-
likely. And the alternative is the
curtallment of non-essential loans,
ir which class fall loans for pur-
chasing or carrying stocks. The
pressure on the banks to effect such
curtailment is constantly increasing.
1t is applied partly by. the Reserve
Board and to a greater extent it is
a matter of necessity. Unable to
fill all applications, the banks natu-
rally give preference to the borrow
ers whose operations are essential
to the war.
In this connection, action of the
money committee in calling upon
the banks for a detailed statement
of each days loaning operations is
highly significant, for it marks the
beginning of closer supervision OF
loans and perhaps will be followed
by more drastic curtailment of
those regarded as non-essential. 1t
gets palmer every day that any
great speculative movement such as
has been predicted several times of
late would be seriously hampered,
if not arrested, by lack of money.
That might be unfortunate from the
Wall Street point of view, but the
fact remains that this is no time to
waste our credit resources in specu-
lation.
