 NATIONS BANKS
 SHOW STRENGTH OF DIRECTORATE
IRepublican A. P. leased wirel

WASHINGTON. Oct. 31.-The S157 national banks of the country reported gross revenue of s1.1O9. 100000. or 24 per cent of their capital, for the fiscal year ended last June 30. said a state ment today by John Skelton Williams, comptroller of the currency. This, he said, was a new high record.
 Only five banks went into the hands of receivers during the year, a record exceeded only by that of the year be- fore. when there were no failures.
 Mir. Williams declared the national banks had met the severe test" of war and reconstruction in a way that proved their solid strength and the wisdom and fidelity of those who di- rected them.
 The facts and figures" he added, must give the American people and the world increased confidence in the safety and power of the banking and business interests of this country"
 Earnings of the banks came largely from interest and discounts. MT. Will Hams said, although 97,000,000 was obtained from exchange and collection charges and miscellaneous sources.
 Losses charged off by the banks were distributed as follows: $31. 200. 900 on loans and discounts. $61.700,000 on bonds and other securities, and S21.- 900, 900 on miscellaneous losses.
 The banks paid interest to depositors aggregating $2S7 100000. Their taxes amounted to 79,400,000.
 "The shrinkage in the value of our principal commodities and articles of production during the fiscal year ended oct. 31." MT. Williams said. "is the greatest in commercial history, not only in amount, but in the proportion of the decline to former values. Il amounts to billions of dollars. No sis years in the history of the world have brought convulsions and changes SC tremendous or intense. The manner in which our banks have endured these ordeals is an impressive indication tha' they were not tempted from the ways of safety and honesty by the excite ment of imitation"
