$3.oo, eoo,o0o of American currency, or
nearly one-half the total supply, said
Fred W. Ellsworth. vice-president Of
the Hibernia Bank and Trust Com
pany OF New Orleans, at the annual
convention of the American Bankers
Association. here today.
This means that for every family
in the country there is an average of

be in the banks where it could accom-
plish for the business community in

pockets Mr.. Ellsworth continued
! AS a matter Of fact, right now So
eo.0o.oo0 of American currency, as a
basis for credit, would enable the
banks to take care of very large
proportion of necessary business which
is suffering for the lack OF adequate
financing
The responsibility of diverting this
vast volume of money into the proper
channels OF trade rests upon the
shoulders of the bankers of the coun-
try. declared Mr.. Ellsworth. The Am
erican people he said squandered I'm
told millions on silly and unnecessary
Injuries while hundreds of millions of
dollars were invested in gilt-edged
get-rich-quick securities that have no
security There were countless ways
advertised for separating a man from
his money and most of this was TO be
commended. but if il is logical to ad-
vertise in order TO persuade folks to
spend. Mr.. Ellsworth asked if il were
not just as sensible TO advertise for
the purpose OF persuading people t.
save or invest or otherwise to con-
serve their means
Bankers he said had undertaken by
: collective and cooperative movements
to show The people by advertising
how 10 do this saving and investing.
!. The savings bank section of the Am
erican Bankers Association is work
