BANKS SHOWING
is SATISFACTORY
Best Since 1919, Says Statement from
the White House-Liquidatfon
Peak Passed

WASHINGTON, Feb. lS.-Resources
of the national banks of the country,
exclusive of rediscounts amounting to
Sl9.420, 100000 at the last call on Dec. 81,
showed an increase of Si6O, 100000 over
the previous call IN September, according
to an analysis issued last night by
Comptroller of the Currency Crissinger.
The condition of the national banks
in December he described as Every sat
isfactory" and called attention to the
fact that until September their resources
mad more or less steadily declined from
their peak of $22,7Il,0 100000 in December,
1919.
Conditions of the national banks, as
reported by Mr.. Crissinger, were said in
a formal statement issued by the White
House to show ''the most satisfactory
turn in the financial affairs of the colin-
try that has been registered by a bank
statement since the conclusion of 1919. -
cit demonstrates, the statement
said, ''that the process of liquidation
has been proceeding at such an excellent
rate that it may fairly be said that we
are well on the road to getting the
frozen credits thawed out. In this re-
gard, indeed, it is by far the most salts
factory showing that has been made
since the phrase frozen credits was
invented
lit must be borne in mind" the
White House statement said, ''that the
less of the nation. 1t is, therefore, safe
to assume that the state, savings and
private banks and trust companies, have
experienced the same turn in the tide
that is noted in the case of national
banks. We may, therefore, conclude
that the figures for national banks may
safely be doubled in order to get an ap-
proXimate representation of the situa-
ton as to the entire banking establish
ment of the nation.
Under any analysis. the figures in
dubitably demonstrate that the peak of
liquidation and consequent depression
was passed somewhere between Sept. 6,
last, and Dee. 81. last. and that the ten
deEcy has been steadily toward improv-
ing business and less reliance of bust
ness upon the support of the banks.
''Of precisely like tenor are recent
advices from the war finance corporation
which reports a progressive liqujdat ion
of its loans and a general Improvement
of conditions in the agricultural indus
try. Recent solicitations of prices for
agricultural staples have brought the
farmers to the point where they are able
to realize something at least approximat-
ing costs of production. and can look
forward hopefully to Still further i'm
provements in no very distant future. -

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-A confer

ton to consider disarming college athlet-
les by "scrapping' all paid coaches was
suggested last night by President Alex
ander Mciklejohn of Amherst college in
an address before the Amherst alumni
of New York.
President Meiklejohn declared coach

wrong. An intercollegiate game is, or
ought to be, contest between the I'M
dergraduates of two competing colleges"
he said. Our games are managed by
outsiders, coached by outsiders, and, in
a very real and lamentable sense, played
by outsiders
College authorities. President Meikle-
john believes, are responsible for this
condition by taking over control of
sports from undergraduates and placing
them in the hands of q board.
