Sees Cut i'm Bank
Borrowings as Aid
To Easier Money
Federal Reserve Circular
Also Reports Advances i'll
Nine Industries During
the Month of February

Effectiveness of the gradual reduc-
tion of member bank borrowings at the
Federal Reserve Bank as n factor in
the easement Of money is stressed in
the monthly circular Of that institu-
tion, made public yesterday. This in
fuencc, growing during recent months,
it regards as entirely distinct from the
more transient causes of the lower
rates for money attendant upon the tax
payment period. In discussing the re
cent development Of the money market
the bank says, in part:
During the period when member
banks were borrowing heavily at the
Reserve Bank they applied funds re
ccived from the redemption of certiti-
Gates largely to the reduction of such
borrowings, and when tax checks were
collected it usually was necessary for
tho banks TO borrow again at the Re
serve Bank. But imm lately prior to
March Is OF this year the borrowings
of New York City member banks at
the New York Reserve Bank amounted
only to sl1,000000, as compared with
S91S,000,000 at their highest point.
Borrowings by other member banks in
this district, as we'll as by banks else
where in the country, from their re-
much reduced. In consequence, funds
received in payment of certificates, not
being required for the reduction of
loans at the Reserve banks, were avail
able in amounts larger than heretofore
for employment in other ways"
The index numbers Of production
computed by the bank furnish the most
encouraging information of the bust
ness section Of the circular. They show
gains in nine industries during Tebru-
ary over January and declines in only
four, whereas for some months pro
vlously nearly as many industries re
corded declines as gains.

CHRISTMAS SEALS


What Has Been Done in Vermont
from the Sale of These Seals
Hundreds of lives saved from
tuberculosis.
Before the Vermont tuberculosis
Association was organized six years
ago, there was but one sanatorium
for the treatment and prevention of
tuberculosis and that one was seldom
used to capacity. Now there are two
sanatoria and one preventorium.
Before the Vermont tuberculosis
Association was organized an annual
appropriation of $4,000 was sufii-
cient to care for all the Indulgence
cases of tuberculosis that benefited
by the sanatoria care. Last year an
annual appropriation of $4,000 was
not enough to care for these patients
who benefited by this care.
For the five years before the YER
mont tuberculosis Association was
organized, 1925, the average death
rate from tuberculosis in Vermont
was 100 per 100000. For the five
years after the Vermont Tubercu-
losis Association was organized,
1921, the average death rate from
tuberculosis was SO per 100000 and
for 1921 alone the death rate was So
per 100000. In other words, in the
five years before the Vermont Tuber-
culosis Association was organized
237 more Vermonters died from
than in five years after
the Association was organized.
Nor is this all, for through the
work of its preventorium for children
of tuberculosis and
through its Modern Health Crusade,
the Association has doubtless pre-
vented many deaths from this disease
in the years to come.
1t is to continue this work that
you are asked to buy Christmas
Seals.
