CANADIAN BANK
STOPS PAYMENTS
Many Doubtful Debts Among
Assets, It Is Said

Toronto, Aug. 1S.--The Home Bank
of Canada has decided TO suspend pay
ments and its affairs have been placed
in the hands of a curator. A. B.
Barker, manager of the Toronto
clearing house, appointed by the
Canada Bankers Association, directors
of the banks announced yesterday.
The directors announced that they
had received IAN official report of a
serious character as to the amount of
bad and doubtful debts among the as
sets of the bank, and as the extent Of
appropriations necessary in a num-
Der of large loans and investments"
The report showed, the directors
stated, that the resources of the bank
had been seriously impaired and that
no readjustment of capital or reserve
could meet the situation. Efforts to
get another bank to take over the as
futile and the directors decided the
best step for the protection of deposit
tors and other creitors would be to
suspend payment.
The suspension in no way involves
the value of the bills of the bank in
circulation, it was stated. Such bills
will be redeemed as their face value
on presentation to any of the other
chartered banks.
The last annual statement of the
bank covered the year ending May
81, 1928, and disclosed deposits of
$22,151,770. Net profits for the year
were given as s232,539 which ap-
proximated II per cent on the sub
scribed stock.
Debts that had passed maturity
were listed at $95,110 and the reserve
account totaled $550,000.
The home bank is one of the small
err banking institutions of Canada, but
has branches at all principal Canada
financial centers 1t has an authorized
capital of s5,000,000, of which So
100000 is subscribed, with paidup ST.
960,474. 1t was understood the bank
had suffered heavy losses through sew
eral recent commercial failures and its
assets have been impaired
II. j. Daily, president, had been i'll
for some time and his condition at
present is regarded as serious.

GOVT. FORECASTING
ON CROPS Defended
Agricultural Predictions Of Great
Importance, Says Bureau Chief

Washington, Aug. 1S.--Agricultural
forecasting by the government which
has been criticized recently In some
quarters was defended today by DR..
Henry c.. Taylor, chief of the bureau
of agricultural economics of the de-
partment of agriculture, who declared
1t to be of great Importance particu-
iarly in view of unsettled economic
conditions. 1t is valuable he said not
only to the individual farmer and
dealer in farm products, as the basis
of wise farm management and mar
keting but also to the nation as the
bases of national agricultural
policy.
Frequent changes in the sources of
supply and quantities produced and
their effect on prices of farm pro-
ducts lead to a desire for better
basis of judgment than farmers have
had In projecting their plans for the
coming year." said DR.. Taylor.
A forecast is a statement Of what
may be expected to happen, based
upon present conditions and observa-
tons interpreted in the light of pre-
vious experience.

Eaton, coming down rather late the
mex morning, found the breakfast
room empty. He chose his breakfast
from the dishes on the sldeboard, and
while the servant set them before him
and waited on him, he inquired after
the members of the household. Miss
Santoine, the servant said. had break
tasted some time before and was now
with her father; Mr.. Avery also had
br~eakfasted; Mr.. Blatchford was not
yet down. AS Eaton fingered over his
breakfast, Miss Davis passed through
the hall, accompanied by a maid. The
maid admitted her into the study and
closed the door; afterward, the maid
remained in the hall busy with some
morning duty, and her presence and
that of the servant In the breakfast
room made It impossible for Eaton TO
attempt to go to the study or TO risk
speaking to Miss Davis. A few min

descending the stairs; rising, he went
out into the hall TO meet her.

he said. when they had exchanged
greetings, ~but-for today-what are

would refuse or accept Avery's invita-
