BANKS OF COUNTRY
SHOW BIG GROWTH
Decentralization Has Been
Under Way During Past
Twenty Years.

Decentralization of the nations s
tanking power is vividly indicated in
an analysis which has just been COM
pleted by the controller of the cur
rency relative to the geographical To-
cation of the country's 120 biggest ma
tional banks. The list also includes
all national banks whose resources on
November H. 1919 were S25,0CO,000 or
more
On September :. 1899. there were
nineteen national banks in the United
States having resources of as much as
525, ,000, 900 each. OF these fourteen
were located in New York city, one
each in Boston, Philadelphia and st.
Louis and two in Chicago. On No
vember II. 1919. there were 120 ma
tional banks having resources of more
than S25,000.000. one of which. accord
ing to the statement, is located in the
District of Columbia.

The big banks to large extent
the analysis says, are the logical re-
| industrial and commercial units. The
banks of the country have kept step
with the expansion in the business oi
their customers and by increasing
their capital and resources are en-
| abled to meet the increasing demands
upon them for credit and loans. They
| facilitate local development by max
| ing it unnecessary for business men
to go away from home for bank &C

Total Resources.

! banks on November Il. 1919. were
| S22444992 coo. and s10.3S3.479. 900 OF
! these resources were held by the 12C

national banks, about $500. whose as
| sets in the case of each bank are less
| than s25, 900, are now far greater
| than the total resources of all ma
| tional banks. large and small, twenty
! years ago. Therefore. the more than
| $4,000. 900 600 of assets of the 12O big
! banks represent only part of the huge

Widening Scope of Sports.
According to Graduate Manager
Cox. the number of meets scheduled
by Georgetown this year for its in
door season simply indicates that
Georgetown is branching out on a
policy of greater athletic development
than it has yet attempted. The
ranged for base ball. and next falls
foot ball list comprises more game IS
and harder games than usual.
Georgetown believes it is going to
have a strong track and field squad.
OF course. it is well recognized that
LIE Gendre is almost a squad himself
when it comes to competition in this
immediate section, but other men WE
be numbered in the Blue and Gray
heard from. Particularly is this true
of Connolly, the mile runner. John
O'Reilly says that Connolly has done
better than 4:17 and that he should
make a place on the Olympic team
this year if he continues to improve.

Consolidation of Farm
ers' Unions Interests

C. M. White, field agent. Division
of Markets, Department Of Agricul-
ture, has returned from Waterville
where on Thursday he attended a
joint meeting of the boards of direc-
tors Of the Farmers Union of Maine
and the Farmers Union Grain and
Supply Co. of Waterville, which vot-
ed unanimously to consolidate the
two corporations under the name OF
the Farmers Union Grain and Sup
ply Co.
, The farmers organizations have
for nearly a year been at work on
this project and the action of Thurs
day is the last step in perfecting the
wholesale company to properly serve
the local Farmers Unions of Maine.
AS they were originally started they
were not able to finance such COM
pany, but with the growth of their
business and with the growing con-
fidence Of the people, they have now
been enabled to buy up the stock of
the central organization and the con-
troll Of it is entirely in the hands of
the local Farmers Unions. The To-
| calls have invested in blocks of $500
worth of stock, thus furnishing
about $4,000 capital with which to
do business and making it a coop
erative plan throughout.
The profits derived from the locals
business will first be divided into a
| dividend for the stockholders and the
surplus over that will be divided pro
rata among the members of the local
unions, according to the amount of
| business transacted by each. The
same plan will be carried out with
! the wholesale house at Waterville,
| which is not run by anyone for the
profit, as each and every employee is
on salary. Some of the local unions
! have already worked up large and
profitable business, and with the bet
ter service in supplies from the GEN.
trail or wholesale house, all expect to
greatly increase their business.

of Maine. And this sale is going to
accomplish what we have all hoped
and believe is going to be done in
electrical work in this State.
The question Of course enters as tn
State or individual operation of the
water powers, but he thought that
the greatest good would come from
the operations handling it, instead
Of the State.
For instance" he said, with the
Oxford Electric Co., we have had
much complaint as to the company's
inability to give what was wanted
and much of the complaint was well
grounded. There is no water power
in that whole section worth develop
ing and the company has to depend
on steam, at great expense and which
in time will force the company into
bankruptcy. That was the cause of
the company's developments at Deer
Rips, but I am confident that Mr..
and cheaper. The steam plant had
been taxed to its limit since last Sep
TENDER and the company is furnish
ing every bit of current it could, but
not what is needed"
So he thought, that if the people
would be fair in their attitude and
judgment, this sale would be the
first step in a safe, sane and sound
policy of developing the water pow
ers in Maine for the benefit Of the
people. This was not based on his
own conclusion, because he. person
ally believed in private ownership,
but he believed this to be first
class good proposition for the people
as a whole.
