SEES BIG DECREASE
IN BANK FAILURES
Mellon Says General Business
Conditions of Nation
Are Sound.

The current year will see an i'm
portant reduction in the number of
national bank failures. Treasury Off
cials predicted today on the basis of
reports showing that 80 national
banks closed their doors In the last
six months of 1924.
Secretary Mellon said that general
banking conditions were sound, and
that he believed the banking institu-
tions of the country were seldom, II
ever. better able to meet the business
needs
Failures among national banks IN
the first half of 1924 totaled 70. The
figures indicated that liabilities in
volved in the closing of such banks
in the last six months was less than
half of the amount involved in the
failures between January and July.
Treasury statistics showed that the
number OF banks being reorganized
after having had their doors closed
had gradually increased in the last II
months. officials said this indicated
that banks closed in the last year
had not suffered losses as great as
was the case in 1928. Where banks
were closed permanently, the figures
revealed creditors received an aV-
erage of about so per cent of their
claims.
officials of the office of the con-
troller of the currency said more lib
eraI treatment of national banks un-
der Federal laws was needed, so that
they might more successfully meet
competitive conditions originating 6
from State and private banking in
stitutions.

young woman who, she was inform ed,
was the Princess de Ridder, sojourn-
ing in New York as Mrs. Eliza beth
