The Credit Problem

the protection Of our national
credit structure is most essen
ual. BY its preservation bust
ness interests will be enabled
to make the necessary readjust-
ments now under way with a
minimum ofhardship. And the
entire business community is
concerned in maintaining this
country, its banks, and its in
shtutlons on a sound credit
basis.
Despite the vast destruction
of wealth caused by war, and
the wastefulextravagancewhich
followed it, the credit of this
country remains secure. Its
national wealth is estimated at
more than ago billion dollars
and its yearly production in ex-
cess of 50 billion dollars. Its
national debts relatively small.
1t has vast undeveloped re-
sources, great industrial or
ganlzatlon, stable govern
ment, an ample gold reserve,
a sound, efficient banking sys-
tenn and, above all, the vision
to see and the will to do.
With the whole world seek
ing our credit and demanding
ourproducts, we occupy most
advantageous position for the
development of foreign mar
kets. New methods of adapt
ing credit to the needs and
opportunities of this situation
are being devised. But the

great necessities of the hour
are confidence and the vitaliz-
ing of "frozen" credits.
In facing the unprecedented
demands at home and abroad,
our banks have endeavored to
allocate available credit for the
best economic results. They
have assisted in the creation of
new wealth by cooperating
with essential, solvent business
interests to meet the require
ments of the present and to
prepare for the future.
In the face of an increase of
1900 in commodity prices,
the cost of money increased,
on the average, less than $3.50,
and money has remained the
cheapest element in business
enterprise. BY reason Of their
conservative handling Of the
situation, American banks as a
whole are in splendid condition
to serve the business commu-
nifty in taking advantage Of the
opportunities ahead.
This Company has partici-
pated in this constructivebank
ing effort, and, in the future de-
vcloPment of American bust
ness at home and abroad, offers
the cooperation of its trained
organization of five thousand
members; its capital, surplus
and undivided profits of more
than $6o,ooo,ooo; itsresources
of more than $Soo,ooo,ooo;
and its worldwide banking
facilities.

OPEN ANCIENT
PASS TO AUTOS
Gore Pass Across Rockies, Said
NeUer to Haze Deen Crossed
by an Automobile Soon to be
Popular Route.
(By Associated Press

. STEAMBOAT SPRINGS. Colo.
June 4-Gore Pass road probably the
oldest wagon road across the Con-
tinental Divide but over which, It is
said, no automobile has ever gone,
soon will be opened to motor traffic.
The state and Routt county have
each appropriated $4,000 for the M
provement of the road and work is
scheduled to begin soon. Only a
small portion of the road on t1p Of the
Divide is in poor condition but tha5
prtion makes the pass impossible for
automobiles. Gore Pass road connects
Toponas in the southern end OF Ege-
ria park, with Kreinnllnr IN Mlddlc
park.
It is easy to grade as it is said to
be clear Of snow a month later IN the
fall and a month earlier in the splinG
than any other road crossing The d.
vide in this region.
Gore Pass road was first crossed
with wagons in 1856 when Sir George
Gore, an Irish nobleman, and an array
of servants and retainers, travelling IN
30 wagons under guidance OF Jim
Bridger, penetrated the wilderness be-
vond the pass in search of game. Sn
George is reported to have killed
thousands of bison. elk. deer and an
telope during the three years that ne
spent in the Rockies. During that pc
riod his men built roads for him into
many portions of the mountains.
Is 1856. General Bella M. Hughes
rode between Denver and Salt Lake
over Gore Pass, taking advantage Oh
the work already done by Sir George S
men. A stage company was chartered
to operate vehicles between the TWO
cities but the stages were never run.
