TRUSTING THE BANKS

Money in the old sock or under the rag carpet is one of the most
useless things in the world. Such money does not even furnish any
real protection to the person who has hidden it, for it is so likely to
be lost or stolen or burned up.
People usually store money in this way because they do not trust
the banks and other financial institutions which handle the funds of
their depositors. Even under a total lack of guarantee laws the bank
is ordinarily a safer depository for money than is the old sock.
America needs to get its money out of the teapot and the oven
and put IT in the banks and the business OF the land. II people will
not trust the banks. let them loan their money to Uncle Sam. Pro-
badly he will not go bankrupt; and if he does. the money will be of
no use anyhow. Put your money at work. somewhere and somehow
and then go to work yourself in a cheerful confidence that most of
our iellowmen are honest and will protect your interests.
TO be a good citizen" advises a wise and patriotic Judge, in
welcoming new citizens to civic fellowship. you should read newspa-
pers, and bring your children up to read newspapers. so you will
Know what is going on in your community. in your country and in
your world"
II an offender of the law is fairly tried and convicted, either by
Jury or the court, and sentenced to n term OF hard labor in the pen,
let that criminal pay in full the penalty the law put upon him by
the courts.
Congress is to adjourn in two months"-headline. Well. so

American Prosperity

The turn of the first quarter of the
twentieth century has brought to the
United States "a material prosperity
such as the world has never known"
writes John w. O'Leary, President of
the Chamber of Commerce lof the
United States in an article in Fehru-
DRY Current History Magazine. This
prosperity is general in it's appliea-
ton and significance. 1t has affected
every branch of business, finance and
affairs, and every strata of the social
family in America, from the richest
to the poorest Describing the
country's progress. Mr.. O'Leary
writes: Our national wealth was
estimated by the Bureau of Census
in 1900 at sSS,500, 0O0,0 900: in 1929
the latest census estimate-it was
put at nearly 1921, 600, 1000, 900. and it
has grown greatly since them" Today
the United States dominates the
world in finance. In 1914 this country
owed $4,000 100000 abroad; today we
SIG, 000.000.000. Two points, Mr..
O'Leary adds. serve to illustrate
Americas leadership: Our nearest
competitor, Great Britain. is $780,
000,000000 behind us in wealth."
secondly, "the wealth we have ac-
quired in the past ten years alone.
totals nearly thrice the aggregate
wealth of Japan"
But Americas advance manifests
itself in other ways, too. Mr.. o.
Leary cites the development of the
automobile trade; the growth of the
motion picture industry; more re-
Gently, the meteor-lille advance of
the radio trade, which" the author
adds" is already a major industry"
and finally the great promise of
commercial Walton.
Mr.. O'Leary urges that the nation
recognize the responsibilities which
such prosperity brings, and he con-
cludes with this caution: "As the
worlds richest nation, we have a
stewardship which We must face
and of which we must acquit our
selves honorably"

New Kind of Fowl.

London-(AP)--A new kind Of fowl
to grace Americas Thanksgiving feast
or Christmas dinner is promised by
British poultry raisers who announced
they have solved the problem of cross
ing the chicken and the turkey. 1t
has been intended to keep the discov-
cry secret, but in the face of news
from California that new hybrid
had been perfected by breeders near
Santa Cruz it was decided to make
known certain facts about the ""Chur-
Key" or the ''turken" The California
Invention" has been called the "kiwi."
1t is almost wingless and cannot
jump over the garden fence. The
new English fowl is tame and hardy,
has flesh the flavor of turkey though
less coarse in texture, but in the pro-
cess of its evolution has lost one of
the chief characteristics of the tur-
key--the gobble.

Great Britain Has
Safest Railways

London (AP)-Great Britain
claims world leadership in railway
safety. Last year only one pas
senger was killed in train accident.
In the present century there have
been -years-1901 and 1908
without a fatality, and in 1909, as in
1925. only one was killed, while in
1916, 1919. and 1928 there were only
three. AS 1,700000.000 passenger
Journeys are made by train every
year. chance of death is infinitesimal.
The problem of railway transporta-
ton in Great Britain is entirely diff
ferent from that in the United
States. Long hauls are negligible.
Sleeping cars are needed only in two
directions from London, toward
Scotland a short nights run, and to
Plymouth. But in the many thickly
populated districts of the country
railway tracks form a network such
as exists in America only near New
York, Chicago and other large cities.
