The Part q Bank Plays

THE vital part that banks play in the interchange
Of goods among nations is intensely interesting.
Using coffee for further illustration, let us
what actually happened in the financing of it from
the the breakfast table. The grower in Brazil
sold it to exporter, probably in Santos the worlds
greatest coffee port. The exporter probably sold it
to coffee importer in New York. But if the New
York importer had simply forwarded his check for
the amount of the BILL the exporter in Santos would
have had difficulty in cashng it. Instead Of doing
that, this was the probable procedure:
The importer in New York went to his bank and
arranged to open what is called confirmed letter
Of credit BY this means the bank issuing the credit
lends its name to its customer and promises to pay
the amount named in the credit against drafts
ing the requisite amount of coffee.
The exporter in Brazil, after arranging for the
shipment Of the coffee, drew draft against the bank
issuing the letter of credit for the value of the coffee
He then took his letter of credit with the draft to
which attached the bill of lading, insurance
policies and other documents, to bank in Santos,
probably to the branch Of an American bank located
in that city.
The branch bank manager then made offer for
the draft, based the guaranty of the bank in
America issuing the credit; that is he told the coffee
exporter how much he willing to pay in Bra
lillian money for draft which would later be
collected in American money in New York.
Assuming that favorable offer made, the
exporter sold the draft the branch bank and re-
ceived his money in the local currency used in Brazil
How did the bank manager know how much he
could afford to pay in Brazilian money for draft
that would be collected weeks later in New York;
He determined this question by referring to the buy
ing rate for the day the deal was made, and an ex-
panation of that buying rate entails, in nutshell,
the whole financial fabric of international trade.
The buying is determined in triangular way,
because most of the worlds business is really a

That was the simplest Of all commercial transactions,
but back of it lies the wonderful system Of trade and
commerce by of which the products of one
part of the world are made available in another and
by means of which people everywhere are able to
prohtably exchange their products for the consum-
able goods of other peoples in other parts of the
world
Foreign trade is familiar term these days, and
Its expansion depression, the may be, but
few accounts are explicit enough to give any true
idea of what really happens when trade becomes
foreign.
We know that domestic business simply consists
Of exchanging the money in pockets for goods,
as in the case Of the coffee. But when the importer
bought that same coffee in South America very
different and much complicated transaction
took place, transaction that would not have been
possible without the service of the financial ma
chinery that has been built up facilitate trading
between nations and continents.
Foreign trade is complicated than domestic
trade because of the varying monetary units which
into settlements arising of the exchange Of
goods produced in country for goods from other
countries Each nation must in the end sell to other
nations quantity of goods approximately equalling
the amount of its purchases and the final settlements
for the goods sold to any nation may come from
many different nations. This balancing of sales with
purchases must 60 if business is to 60

three-sided transaction. Brazil sells to the United
States much more than the United States sells to
Brazil, that trade would eventually be choked off
if remedy at hand. But Brazil buys more
from other countries than it ses and it so happens
that these are the countries which buy more from
the United States than they sell to us. Thus we
have situation with three angles which can be, and
is eventually adjusted just if the entire matter

Creating Credits in New York
TINE manager of the branch in Santos knows
that when he buys draft which will be paid
in dollars in New York. he is creating credit for
himself in dollars He knows that other customers
will want to buy some of those dollars for the pur-
chase of American goods to be shipped back to
Santos but that all of his credits cannot be used that
way. But he also knows that Brazil has bought
goods in Europe than it has money to pay
for unless it the dollars it has in New York
for that purpose.
These same European countries need funds with
which to pay the United States for the excess Of
their purchases here the amount they have sold
US. trade is thereby arranged by Of which
the three, through the medium of drafts, by match
ing one credit or one debit against the other two,
equalize matters and wipe the slate clean.
They not, however, exactly equal and it is in
determining the precise differences between the three
that the worlds banking system operates. At the
present time constantly hear it said that the
changes disarrangcd by which we mean that
some countries are producing more than they
consuming while others consuming than
they producing.
: In normal times, these factors would be practically
in balance and any balances still outstanding after the
three-cornered matching of debts and credits would
be settled by the shipping of gold. But at the
present time gold has almost disappeared from the
commercial world and the United States is the only
country where it is obtainabe on demand.
The New York herald., 1921-07-06

Other countries, such as Argentina. have placed
embargoes which prohibit the shipping of gold, SO
that the relation of each currency currcnces
is almost solely determined by the relative purchases
and sales of the various countries The relation of
these debts credits to each other is reflected in
the amounts which bankers are willing to pay for
drafts drawn in other currences than their own
the buying spoken of before-and this is what is
meant when we say the exchanges out of balance.
Thus that theoretically the world settles
its accounts by the shipment of goods. The actual
machinery of payment however, is the transferring Of
funds by the banks trade rises and falls and as the
crop seasons direct the flow Of trade. The wheat
which we send to England, for example, creates
credits for US which we may to offset the debt
owe Brazil for coffee, while Brazil uses the credit
thus created pay for machinery it has bought in
England.

Using american Branch Banks

BEFORE 1914 American foreign trade was forced
- depend upon the facilities of foreign banks for
handling business but when the Federal Reserve act
approved in December, 1913, permission was
given to American banks to establish branches abroad
A number of such branch banks were opened in
South America in 1915, and since that date their
number has steadily increased until today there not
important trading center anywhere in the world
without branch of some American banking insti-
tuition.
The National City Bank of New York has from
the first taken the lead in establishing branches in
foreign countries. Starting with the branch at
Buenos Aires, which opened in 1914, con-
stanty widening system Of branches has been built
up including the branches of the international Bank
ing Corporation, which The National City Bank ac-
quired in 1915, until today this single American
bank has than seventy-ive branches in all parts
Of the world
Every one Of these branches is an outpost for
American business. BY of these branches the
expense and delay of collecting for goods shipped
abroad from this country has been greatly lessened
while Americans desiring to purchase foreign prod
ucb have had their paths greatly eased. Credit in
formation is collected which benefits both Americans
and foreigners and which expedites the transaction
of business to very great extent.

POWER BREAD MIXER

The prosperity that is attending
the affairs of the Clio bakery (Ham-
ilton's Bakery is a matter of COM
mon knowledge. In fact, the demand
for Hamilton's Home Made Bread
and cakes has grown within a few
months to such proportions that it has
been almost impossible to keep up
with it, In order to provide for the
growing trade Mr.. Hamilton has just
had installed one of the latest and
best power mixers. This will do
away with the necessity for an i'm
mense amount of hand labor and at
the same time will result in improv-
ing the product, although that would
seen a difficult thing to do. The new
machine weighs more than 1900 lbs,
is handsomely enameled in white and
is the last word as regards efficience
and cleanliness in a machine of the
kind. 1t is run by an electric motor
contained in the base of the machine.
The Messenger is mighty glad of this
evidence of prosperity and most sin
cerely hopes that it will not only con-
tinue, but increase, because the gen.
eral excellence of the Hamilton goods
makes such result very much de-
served.

FISH SUPPER AHEAD

Vienna Lodge is going ahead with
all the preliminaries to the giving of
a fish dinner to the general public
on the evening of the 18th Of Octo-
Der. Five hundred pounds of fish
will be brought direct from the lake
for this feed and consequently will
be in the very best of condition. Bert
Conlee is to be chief cook and master
of ceremonies, which is assurance
that there can be no chance for a
kick on the cooking. Bert admits
that he is perhaps the best piscatorial
culinary artist in this section of the
United States. One thousand tickets
have been printed for this dinner and
the indications are that it will be
the most largely attended affair of
the kind ever pulled off in Clio. Re-
member the date and come to Clio
and eat the most delicious fish you
will ever have tasted in your life.
Bring the ladies. They will be guests
Of honor and will be waited upon
with faultless attention by the men.

INTERURBAN TO CUT RATE

Our readers will doubtless re-
call that few weeks ago delega-
tion representing the various town
ships and villages through which
the s. &. +. branch of the Michigan
Railway passes went to Lansing to
lay before the Public Utilities Com
mission the franchises granted by
the said townships and villages to the
railroad company when the line was
constructed. These franchises pro-
vided among other things that the
maximum passenger tariff should be
one and one-half cents per mile,
whereas the railroad company is at
present charging twice that sum.
To sum up the results of the visit Of
the delegation, it may be stated that
the Commission held with the rail
road company, at least temporarily,
saying that a definite ruling could
best be given after the first of the
coming year, when complete reports
form the railroad company would be
available. Assistance for the town
ships was promised in high quarters,
however, and therefore the outlook
may be said to hold something of
hope. The representations of the
delegates regarding the loss of pat
ronage to the railroad company
through the imposition of high rates
seems to have borne fruit, regard
less of any action by the state board,
as the railroad company has an
nounced its purpose to issue mileage
books to Flint at the rate Of forty
rides for ten dollars-25c per ride,
said trip tickets to be used within a
space of thirty days. This will af-
ford cheap rides, as well as security,
to factory workers, who travel every
day, and should be attractive. We
understand these tickets will be
available soon.

HONEY IN GARRETT

Rats in ones garret, whether
mental or material, are a source of
trouble, but with bees its different.
Of course, there is some trouble to it,
but it is likely to be sweetened up so
that it does not amount to much. At
least, that is the way H. L. Sparks
found it. For two years past the
bees have made their home in the
attic of his house and as the swarm
had increased this year to goodly pro-
portions Mr.. Sparks concluded that
he would collect his rent in the form
of honey And so, he invaded the
attic, his intrusion being hotly re-
sisted. Yes, hotly, is the proper word
although it may not be the one that
Mr.. Sparks used to express the same
sentiment. But he stayed by gamely,
and fitted in neatly between the raft
ers he found about 200 lbs. of deli
cious comb honey which he succeeded
in removing. The fingers on both
his hands looked like cluster of big
red bananas, soon after the bees
closed their side of the argument, but
Mr.. S. says all that will be forgotten
next winter when he is making a gen.
erous application Of the honey to a
plateful of somking buckwheat flap
jacks.

SHERIFF COMES TO CLIO

Sheriff Vette, we understand, came
to Clio last Sunday evening and took
in a charge a young man who had
some liquor in his possession. We
also understand that a Thetford
party has been arrested for selling
the young man the liquor. We know
nothing of the details of this case and
express no opinion thereon, but we
shall confess that in common with a
large majority of the citizens of Clio
we are glad the sheriff is giving the
locality some attention. Living in
the business section of town, as we
do, and as we have to live owing
to present circumstances, we cannot
help but be cognizant of certain con-
walls, on Sunday nights and other
nights, which has certainly not been
a credit to the community We do
not know just who the parties are
who have participated in these ac-
tions, and we have taken no pains
to know, because it is the special
province of officers of the county to
we believe it to be true that we are
not Puritanical nor straight-laced and
are not disposed to mark out path
of conduct for anyone, so long as
they do not act in manner that con-
fiicts with common decency and our
own peaceful privileges as a citi-
zen. When these rights are invaded
~
with other law abiding citizens and
see that the protection guaranteed
by the statutes of the state is secur-
ed. In this position we know we have
the support of practically the entire
community, because, generally speak
ing, this is fine, law abiding people,
one of the best we have ever lived
among, and we have so beautiful
little village that we want to aid in
preserving unsullied it's reputation in
every way. One word of advice we
shall append to this article and that
is to say to the parents of young sons
and daughters, especially the latter,
that it would be mighty fine thing
to know where they are and in what
company they are late at nights. This
rather disconnected article is inspired
primarily by desire to demonstrate
that we are as ready to say word
in commentator of our officers as
in criticism of them, but in doing this
we have distressed bit. For our
selves, we are trying, imperfectly we
admit, to make use of the sentiment
of Banks beautiful poem, the "Pslam
of Life" one stanza of which runs:
II live for those who love me,
For those who know me true,
For the Heaven that smiles above
me
And awaits my spirit, too,
For the cause that lacks assistance,
For the wrong that needs resist
ance,
For the future in the distance,
And the good that can do"
