the average income per return was
$3,09765. The average amount of
tax per Arkansan return was $S5.76

mark.
Average Tax Is $1.87.
The average Arkansas man and
woman found that after he or she
had taken out all exemptions he
or she had net income Of $67.37

BANKS REPORT
HUGE CREDITS
NOW AVAILABLE
Light Demand for Loans
Has Created Great Sur
plus of Funds, Says Wash
ington Report.
By w. II. ATKINS,
tcrnational News Service Staff


Correspondent.
Washington, June 17-The banks
are swollen with surplus funds
Nearly $4,000, 100000 in credit is
going begging. American banks re-
ported loans a year ago of $13, 900
600, 900. Today the same banks re-
port only $4,000, 100000 in loans
Easy money conditions provide
the answer. Because Of light de-
mands made upon them, banks ev-
erywhere have a surplus of funds
available for outside Investment
Reports to the Federal Reserve
Board show that in many classes of
business commitments have been
fully liquidated and considerable
cash balances have been carried III
the banks. There is less demand for
customers to resort to the banks for
working capital.
Reserve BOARD reports show that a
gradual liquidation of large stocks of
commodities held over in order to
avoid dumping them on the market
has thrown funds into the hands of
thousands who are now using the
proceeds in business development.
Loan Money Available.
Increasing ease in the banking
situation generally is shown by the
vast amount of money sent by in
terror banks to New York to be
loaned on time. There is said to
be more money drawn to New York
on such basis than has been re-
ported since the free market for time
funds was restored some time ago.
Larger volume of security sales and
heavier offerings of new industrial
issues have absorbed a part of this
fresh supply of credit.
Generally officials here are Of the
opinion that the flotation of security
issues in the heavy volume recently
noted shows q readiness by the BUSH
ness community to spend large sums
for Improvement purposes. In many
directions it has brought stimulus
to the basic industries.
The country is working around to
the point of obtaining a better bal
ance in the industrial structure. OBJ
servers have noted that the iron and
steel industries have exhibited
hoalthful signs of growth following
the launching of betterment projects
in that field
Slowing down of business over the
preceding months released a large
volume of funds which has sought
investment, and much of it has gone
into government securities. Such
securities as treasury certificates
have been offered in large svolumc
and have been heavily over-subscrib-
ed by investors.
