TT is SAID that follower of Confucius once
asked the great teacher if there were any single
= word which covered in its significance, all OF
the obligations Of social life and that the reply was
els not Reciprocity such wordi"
1t is such word in economic relations. In our
statement, published in these columns few days
ago. we sought to show that the relations between
bank and its regular patrons in very high degree
intimate and reciprocal. The deposits Of commercial
bank supplied mainly by its regular customers
and in the aggregate form fund Of working capital
brought together with the understanding that each
contributor may draw any part or all of his own
deposit absolutely at WILL and, that he may have the
privilege Of borrowing from the fund from time to
time to meet his further needs A consolidation of
working funds accomplished to the common advan-
age Seasonal fluctuations in almost all lines such
that unless business has capital than it can
use all of the time it will have surplus funds in some
seasons and need to borrow in others.
Other things being equal, the governing principle
in the distribution of loans is that the depostor
borrow in proportion his contribution to oanable
funds, but Of the certainty Of prompt repay
ment is primary consideration.

Management of the Mutual Fund

TINE BANKER manages these common funds.
He determines their distribution There is chal-
longing his decisions, for he is the owner Of the
funds while they in his possession He receives
the deposits in the form Of great variety Of items OF
credit, payable in all parts Of the world He gathers
these funds together and the risks of keeping
them and employing them, and undertakes to keep
them SO readily available that he the shifting
demands of the numerous contributors both for cash
and loans.
There is talk Of cooperative banking in the sense
Of ownership of bank by its patrons, and as the
stock of commercial banks is widely distributed
There are stockholders of The National City Bank
of New York in every state Of the Union) cooper
alton in this exists large extent, but regard
less of this banking is highly cooperative, with the
utmost incentive for the Banker satisfy his patrons
and perfect freedom of action for the latter.
While the banker has free hand in the employ
ment of the funds, he must handle them with such
regard for the interests Of his patrons satisfy
them, or his business will not be successful. The
patron is free to withdraw his funds and place them
elsewhere at any time. Banks numerous, and
the organization Of one is a simple process
under state or national law. There is nothing Of
the nature OF monopoly ABOUT the banking OuSlheSS.
It controls no natural resource opportunity; its
earnings are from current business, its customers
are alternately creditors and debtors, and must be
satisfied in both relationships they easily form
connections.
COOP BANKER will study the interests of his
patrons for his business will grow with theirs. The
profits of bank made upon its deposits, rather
than upon its capital for the latter relatively
small-its main purpose being to serve as margin
of protection to the depositors The idea that
bankers, as a class, have interests diverse from or
in conflict with the interests Of their patrons or
the general public is wholly erroneous, and arises
from view of only side Of their relations with
the public. 1t comes from thinking of them only
as money lenders, overlooking the fact that the
funds they have to lend placed in their hands
