BANK FAILURES
HOW TO PREVENT

The public itself must at least
share responsibility for bank fail
ures, which we all realize are most
harmful to everyone. The borrow
ing public. the depositing public, at
times the law making public, con-
tribute to causes that bring about
these local collapses that hurt so
deeply.
The situation as to bank condi-
tions in Idaho has perceptibly cleared
but all real friends of Idaho develop
ment will recognize the necessity of
prudent, constructive thought and
action. The new banking code will
operate as a stabilizing and upbuild-
ing instrumentality and. the public,
in its various relationships with the
banks seems inclined as never be-
fore to do its part. So the situation
is more encouraging than it has been
for some time.
Bank failures. with few exceptions,
are caused by lo1ses-loss OF interest,
loss in collection of loans; and con-
tributing causes are lasses with |
which the banking public is not
generally famihar-losses in carry
ing small accounts.
There is little question that the
bankers themselves are censurable
because OF the last mentioned loss,
for the reason that they hav hesitat-
ed to take the small depositors into
their confidence and explain the sit
uation.
The average man or woman is
fair. He or che does not
desire a signal service for nothing;
and bank losses due to handling free
Of charge, improbable accounts can
be traced more to the disposition of
he bankers to uncomplainingly and
'unexplainedly" continue great

service free rather than TO those who
have accepted it.
Ii costs something to handle q
banking account. Every depositor is
furnished, free of charge, pass
book, checks, deposit slips, clerical
hire ledger sheets, statements, in ad-
dition to safety and the convenience
of the check book The cost of that
service depends upon the number of
checks written. One authority fig
ures it at around cents check.
Twelve hundred bankers in this
country that, after explaining the
necessity of it to their depositors,
went on small charge basis for its
lesser accounts, found they had re-
duced their losses, on account of
handling these small accounts free
of charge, an aggregate of more than
four million dollars annually. That
of loss may in itself have
saved some o Ifthem in depressed per-
iods.
There was no complaint either on
The part of the depositors, who were
glad to pay small monthly charge
Tor the greater service, accommoda-
lion and security Moreover, it en-
outraged larger balances and more
savings deposits.
Official figures show that in this
tate around go per cent of the
accounts, carrying 10 per
.ent of the total balances, are I'M
profitable.
Here is a considerable loss the
anks are taking that could be avoid
d if the bankers themselves would
andidly state the situation to the
epositors.
Idaho needs banks, strong banks.
Without them development is i'm
ossible; and the writer feels that
is willing to do his or her
hare in promoting stability of the
ighest degree.
