300 years to develop deposit banking
the check and clearinghouse system, and
the many other facilities and services
offered by modern financial institutions
Not until the 10th century do we find
in Europe the first appearance of banks
in any true sense. These early and
crude institutions were divided into two
classes-exchange banks and banks of
deposit. The exchange bank dealt with
foreign exchange in the days when each
country was a financial law unto itself
With the gradual adoption Of the gold
standard by civilized nations, the de-
velopment OF our present system of for
eign exchange and balance of trade, the
exchange bank gradually became almost
obsolete The only survivor of this kind
Of bank to-day is the Bank of Hamburg
Banks of deposit had their crude be-
ginning in Venice in connection with the

Six centuries ago, when great trad
ing fleets of about 500 vessels each
sailed every year from Nenicc-for the
modern Trust Companys import credit
Black Sea, for Greece and Constanti-
nople, for Syrian ports, for Egypt, for
Barbary and North Africa, for Elan
ders and England, the Venetian Iner-
chant-adventurer travelled with their
goods, for sales were made oftener by
barter than for money. In almost every
venture overseas the merchant risked
not only his capital but his life.
For as late as the Sixteenth century
even the simplest banking facilities were
lacking. Aside from commodities Of
barter, gold and silver were almost the
sole mediums of commercial exchange
Unemployed capital earned nothing
The merchant kept his idle money in a
stronghold at home, or, for greater Sc
curity, at the goldsmith's. 1t took nearly

business of the Csmpsores, or dealers
In foreign money. Between the year
1870, when we find the Campsores first
definitely mentioned in this connection,
and the year 1918, when we find their
position denitely recognized, these money
exchangers were gradually becoming
private bankers
In Amsterdam, we find this same
custom of carrying on private banking
through the money exchangers devel-
oped about two centuries later. Later
still, in London. the practice of deposit
ing their idle money with the goldsmiths
OF that day grew up among the mer-
chants.
The first public Bank of Europe, how
ever. and the first real bank in the
world In anything like the modern sense
was the Bank of Venice, established in
1854. The Bank of Sweden followed in

Between the "A- and tx" OF q big
commodity file lies a whole world of sub
stantial realism and ARREST romance.
No dramatist ever conceived a greater
variety of emotional crises than those
limited at in almost every card.
The man at the credit import win
dow may let his fancy play upon the
strange substances with the financing
of which he is concerned.
But time was when the broad ro-
mantle aspect of foreign trade could
not be enjoyed In this vicarious fash
ion. There was no observer mt the i'm
port credit window. There was no
trust company to finance trade in the
convenient and efficient fashion of to-
