The Development of Money

TINE first great step in promoting the division Of
labor and exchange of products and services the
adoption OF standard of value and medium of
exchange; in other words, the development Of Money
The difficulties Of simple barter great as to OBJ
viously restrict the exchanges. standard of
value provided common basis for trade, by
which commodities could be compared, priced and
quoted in different markets. and the universal esteem in
which the precious metals held enabled them to be
used Of eectng exchanges and standards of
value The gold and silver coins of Athens Corinth
Syracuse, Carthage and Rome were common means of
making purchases around the Mediterranean and through
out the trading world before the beginning of the
Christian Era.
The actual shipment of coin however, for each trans
action, would involve much risk and expense and where
trade ran both ways there obvious gain bv off
setting the transactions which developed the use of
bills of exchange. IF dealer in Rome was shipping
certain goods to Athens and the same time receiving
certain goods from Athens he could easily discharge his
own obligation by giving his creditor an order on his

bills suited their convenience one step more 70
the development of the billbroker or banker who BOUGHT
and sold bills on all markets. When Cicero was about
to send his to school Athens he wrote to INQUIRE
wheher he take bill for the money he will want
IN Athens Or whether he must take the money itself
with him.. This indicates that the settlements between
distant cities were handled then substantially as now by
system of book entries and Offsets

Always there has been feeling in some quarters that

| he Functions of a Bank

Banker is bookkeeper and settling agent for his
community in its transactions with the outside world
The products which shipped out create credits or
deposits, in distant banks in favor of local banks and
the purchases outside settled by drawing against these
credits Since all business in the last ANALYSIS consists of
an exchange of products and services, it follows that

The Servant of Business

NEPOollo IN commercial and savings banks differ in
character The latter made largely in money are
more or less permanent granted interest allowance
and 90 not involve any understanding to borrowing
accommodations. Commercial deposits the other hand
consist OF the current receipts and working capital of

checks drafts discounted paper arising daily from the

credit based upon the worth and average balance
of the customer
Under this arrangement the relations between the bank
and Its customers proca In each line of trade
and industry it is commonly the case that the use for
capital or credit is less uctuating SO that at

This and the need for large capital to handle the heavy

IN the tendency to consolidation among banking institu-

particularly in London.
AS general rule the banking business conducted
upon the principle that the deposors of bank have

no bank can hold its competition unless is able
to satisfy its patrons that is conducting business upon
