Greater Speculation
In German Marks
Than Ever Known
(By Associated Press.)

New York, Oct. A. 4.-Speculation in
the German mark in the United States
since the armistice has reached an un-
precedented point, according to inter
national bankers here.
Thousands of persons in all walks Of
life, hoping to get rich quick, it was
stated, have invested heavily in the
German currency, which recently col
lapsed to a point below one cent for
the fist time in financial history.
The buving first started in the mid
summer IF 1919. when the mark whose
pre- war value was 23.9 cents was sell
ing at "a to cents apiece. New
York appeared to be the distributing
center. Banks and foreign exchange
houses were flooded with orders from
small investors Small foreign ex-
change houses sprang up on prominent
corners, cigar stores and other busi-
ness houses began to do flourishing
business in the mark.
While the wave of mark buying was
at its height, peddlers hawked the
German paper on the streets and one
distributor is known to have made a
house to house canvas.
Bankers said this buying continued
as the value of the mark declined
when the German industrial recovery
failed to materialize as quickly as the
|'get rich quick'' investors had ex
pected. Some weeks ago when the
German paper began to hit new low
levels many of the small investors az
well as others began to "cash in
and they are believed to have taker
hundreds of thousands Of dollars il
losses.
Many Of the spectators, however
bankers assert are holding their mark
for new rise and are buying the cur
rency at the new low rates and equal
Hing their losses. But the wave O.
buying has been greatly checked, the.

Bankers Feel Need of
Cooperating With
Business
(By Associated Press.)

Los Angeles, Calf, Oct. 4.-The
banking profession has come within
the last so years to feel the need for
cooperating with business, declared J.
n. Elliott, Los Angeles banker in an
address of welcome today at the open
ing Of the annual meeting Of the
American Bankers Association.
cit seems to me- he said, "that
the outstanding developments during
that the outstanding development dur
ing that period has been the growing
recognition of our unity Of interest
with men in all walks of life; with all
classes of business with all sections Of
the country, and lastly with all parts
of the world. Their prosperity is our
prosperity. Their trials are our trials.
'While doubtless many bankers so
years ago knew that no great prosper
ity could come to their institutions
unless the country also prospered,
there were some who felt that hard
times could be utilized by the banks to
exact excessive interest and otherwise
take advantage of the situation. I'm
L,
is it a wonder that the public was sus-
picious?
/ but, of late years, the broader view
of banking responsibilities has per
meated the whole fraternity and the
business field and has also apread to
a larger proportion Of the public. This
great American Bankers Association
has been of notable service along this
line, as well as in more technical fields.
It has made us feel more clearly the
sity of cooperation
"Again the willingness of bankers
all over the country, Wherever they
are able. tc join in the formation OF
pools for the assistance of some par
ticular industry is but an evidence OF
the wider view of things that we have
at the present time. We also fee
that the man we must assist is the
producer, and I especially wish te
bring to your attention for study tn
which have developed in this part O.
the country to a greater extent thai
elsewhere.
"We might claim that the realization
that we can only prosper as the countr
prospers has broadened our views an
/ that while our opportunities have in
| creased, the responsibilities, we rea
| lize, have increased at greater rate
| and that not only for our own coun
try, but for the whole world. Thin
that today, for all practical purposes
the world is smaller than when Caesa
set out to conquer Gaul. Such is tn
INTERPRETATION of the different nation
that we cannot, if we would, avoid tn
