Jacksonville, July 25.-Sherff S

AT the bottom of we'll from which

TOO MUCH SYSTEM
HURTS BANKING,
OPINION OF WILLIS
Banker Says There are Too Many
Wheels Within Wheels for
Efficient Service

Minneapolis, Mimi. July 25-Super-
system, titles that cause heartburn
and overdone statistics were gently
castgiated here today by D.. G. Wills,
chairman of the board of the Federal
Reserve Bank of Cleveland. O., in a
practical business talk to future bank
nual convention of the American In
stitute of Banking.
"Going through the motions of do
ing business without really getting
down to business" was the theme the
Cleveland banker expounded. He
summed it up in the title of his ad
dress, knowledge VS.. Wisdom" and
here are some of the bits of business
wisdom he gave the young bankers:
Full credit must be given to or
ganization and machinery. since or
der is Heavens first law What
want to get across is kick against
the pyramiding of system that finally
leads to bureaucracy. | do not think
it is the duty of the public to CON
duct a continuous audit of concern
with which it trades. I
Frequently in a bank organization
the question of titles receives more
consideration than it deserves, princi-
pally because super-system has ere
ated so many wheels within wheels
that the ordinary vocabulary of bank
titles doesn't suffice Frequently
titles cause a lot of heart-burning il
an organization simply because c
vanity and false pride.
"My observation and Judgment con
vince me that one can function under
any title and that we will do well if
we pay less attention to titles, lest in
our zeal to create and eXalt titles we
put the emphasis where it does not
belong. 1t is not question of what
your position is. The question is:
What are you, yourself, doing in
and with it?
"As to statistics, accurate data in.
diligently arranged is so far ahead
of lunches, guess work, general re-
suits, and rule of thumb, that it is as
electricity to candle light. Neverthe-
less, it's use can be overdone and is
being overdone. Charts and barome-
ters are fine, but there are two sub
jects that cannot be charted: they
are Almighty God and human nature.
and both cut quite a figure. Also il
should be remarked that it is per
son of rare qualifications that can
analyze and make proper deductions
from statistics.
at is my judgment that lot of us
are getting our trousers shiny sitting
at our desks porting over statistics,
department reports, etc, who could
spend our time to better advantage
learning the people in our olganiza-
ton and getting more intimate
knowledge of the viewpoint OF those
with whom we do business"

DR.. BARTON'S
DAUYLETTER
OLD HOME
By DR.. William E. Barton

Dy LII. w lllidHl L. bdE1Oh
TIE old town where we formerly
4 merlv lived tends to look very
good to rs as we behold it through
the mists of intervening years We
think with great affection of the
place 'where We used to be so happy
and So poor.
That is to our credit But it IS
mot to our credit if we permit this
to make us disconnected with The
place where we now i've.
I knew a good man who looktd
back with pathetic longing for the
town where he had grown to man
hood and married his wife.
They both had grown up there,
and they knew every one, and if
there were any bad people there,
neither of them could remember it.
That town, as they thought Of it,
was Ward | in the New Jerusalem.
They Go Back
They tested everything in every
other place by its failure to be as
good as their own home town.
The time came when they sold
their home in the town where lived
and moved back to spend their last
days in their old home town.
They were able to endure it about
IS months.
Then they returned and bought
back their old home in our town at
$1,000 increase, and were the glad
dest people to get back it has ever
been my lot to know.
1t Had Changed
But it was as much as ones life
was worth to ask them why they did
not remain back in the town where
they were born They said it had
changed; that the good old friends
had died or moved away, and a new
generation had grown up with diff
ferent ideals and habits.
Very likely And the pity of it
was that they had wasted so much
longing to be back. They might bet
ter have expended that same energy
in loving the town where they were.
There are people who live in dis
content, imagining that the place
where they live is the worst place
on earth, who could be moderately
happy and decently useful if they
would accept the situation happily
and try to be good for something in
the place where they are.

THERE will be loud protests, prob
ably, from mail order houses and
other businesses which conduct their
advertising campaigns largely by cir
cularizing.
The average letter writing citizen,
too, will growl some. Here, to him,
will be visible evidence that the cost
of government service has gone up,
not down. For on its fare there is no
separation of the amount that goes
to defray the cost of carrying his let
ter and the amount that goes to the
treasury as a war tax.
Up in Canada they do it differently.
They have a One-cent war tax on let
