BERLIN, November 14.-Consider-
able discomfort is being occa stoned
by the manner in which the larger
German banks are Transforming their
capital and placing it upon a gold
basis
This entails a vast shrinkage of
capital. the burden of which, it is
stockholders. The loss is not so
great. as figures show, because dur
ing the imitation most of the banks
increased their capital in paper. But
even considered in the terms Of pre-
war capital, the shrinkage is con-
siderable.
Real Owners Disclosed.
This is a sad necessity and would
not cause any unfafrness were the
German shareholders the real owners
of the banks. But they are not. The
real owners are the so-called pro-
prietors who exist alongside the
shareholders
The proprietors have the exclusive
right to decide how the resources
shall be distributed, If they decide
the value of the stock is small, and
to create a big reserve which they
can later appropriate for themselves
as profits is quite within their rights
Furthermore. there is the menace
Of new migration of capital from
Germany. The price of the war loan
ls being forced ever higher and the
profits thus realized are being sent
abroad. Moreover. the revaluation of
nearly 100000. 100000 of the war
loan would constitute circulating
