on regularly issued orders as long as
the makers collected balances are
sufficient to cover.
Four-Through the agency of the
bank, funds which are idle are brought
into use and employed profitably.
Through the medium of the bank the
man who needs and can use funds
meets the man who has funds to loan.
Thus production is greatly stimulated
and capital increased. And for the
bringing them together the banker is
entitled to his profit, as well as the
capitalist. large or small. who fur
nishes the capital that make the
banking operations possible.
In Conclusion.
1t may be interesting to know that
while the banks, generally speaking.
are prosperous, the percentage of net
profits on the depositOrs' balances is
exceedingly small. For instance, in
the year of 1924, when all the ma
tional banks in the District of Co
lumbia had capital funds totaling
about $16,00O,O0O, and depositors'
funds totaling a little over 100000
900, the average net profit for an en-
tire year on 800 Of depositOrs' money
was only 20 cents, after allowing for
a per cent earning on the capital,
surplus and undivided profits. Elk
pressed differently, it means simply
this, that after paying taxes, operat-
ing expenses, interest and other neceS-
sal-y costs, the average national bank
in the city OF Washington made slight
" more that cents a month net on
every 500 which their customers kept
in their accounts.
