FIGURE IT
OUT YOURSELF
What Do The Bankers nean.
Eighteen Billion poilars in
the SAVINGS Bank"7
BY .ohN oAklsoop


The bankers keep telling us that the
sayings accounts OF the nerican PEG.
pie total eighteen billion dollars !
asked dozen people what that meant
to lnem. Most OF them seemed to see
vis.onB OF endless stacks OF coins and
bales OF currency slowed away In The
vaults of fine looking granite bank
buildings.
Now. as matter OF fact. there Ia
1855 than ninu billion dollars worth
OF money in the country all told. in
Guiding gold. silver. nickel and paper
money OF all kinds That Ia less than
half the eighteen billion Therefore
there must be something wrong with
the vision of eighteen billion dollars
In stacks and bales in the bank vaults
More than that. there probably is not
more than one dollar for every twenty
OF that eighteen billion actually In
the savings bank
But the eighteen billion in savings
bank is no myth just the same Sup
pose all the savings depositors could
demand all their money ali at once
and that they insisted on immediate
settlement one way or another when
they found they could not get 1t all
In cash. What would happen would
be that they would come into posses
sion chiefly Of tonds-(}overnment
state and municipal bonds and the
best railroad. equipment, public util-
ity and other corporation bonds. The
savings depositors are really the own.
ers OF all this vast real wealth.
What the bankers really mean.
therefore, Ia that savings deposit
ora, 80 far as raoley Is concerned.
have deposited eighteen billion dol
lars more than they have drawn out
and therefore have credit for that
much in their savings accounts. The
dollars. them selves, that they handed
In. have flowed right on through the
banks have been sent out TO buy the
bonds That is. the money deposits
have been used in behalf OF the
depositors to buy the safest forms Of
Investments. When a man buys q
bond. be really rents his money out
puts II to work to earn him more
money. The savings banks have done
this for their depositora.
So the picture OF idle piles Of money
Is all wrong. Even picture of piles
OF bonds is wrong II It stops at that
The bonds represent two things
First. since they are readily saieab,e
for cash. they mean that any individ-
uai can get his. savings out again In
the form Of money within reasonable
time. Secondly. and more important,
behind those bonds loom up the rail-
roads. factories. businesses and public
works that the money invested In
them set going for the benefit Of
everyone. including the dspositorn
themselves Saving. therefore. Il not
merely accommodating money--it Is &C
cumulating real wealth The money
flows ON like water to turn other
wheels--the real wealth and savings
of the country are the accumulated
factories and other enterprises evil
denced by the bonds.
Therefore the true picture OF what
the bankers mean when they say the
savings accousts OF the American PEG
pie total eighteen billion dollars. In
stead OF piles of money In vaults,
would be factories. railroads and pub
lie works In action.
