SPANKED
FOR DOUBTFUL
BANKING
BY MERRYI.E STANLEY
RUKEYSER

NEW YORK, June IL. George
Bernard Shaw should be spanked
for confusing present.daX bankers
with gpldsmiths Of the Middle
Ages.
In his new opus. "The Intellt
gent Woman's Guide TO Socialism
and Capitalism, the brilliant ali..
thor seeks to express in plain
terms the essential working OF the
modern world. Much OF the de
scriptfve matter is illuminating,
but the discussion Of the psys
chology Of bank credit is wholly
inadequate. 1t Will give the IN
teIligent woman" false steer
Mr.. Shaw gives the impression
to the untutored that q bank
lends other peoples money a
commercial bank does far more
than that. The total loans and
discounts OF the American banks
run many times the actual amount
of money in circulation-on the
average 10 for /. The bank uses
cash deposits as a basis Tor loans.
hut lends many times larger sums
than the actual primary cash de-
posits received.
What II Really Is
IN sense. the bank is All
manufactures of credit, not merely
an intermediary fhat takes cash
from one business man and re-
lends II to another.
Credit, as II, Parker Willis has
pointed out, is recognition Of
value. The social utility of, the
bank is that it studies the hon
esty and the capacity to pay Of
individual borrowers. and after
reaching an affirmative decision
guarantees his debts up to
stipulated amount through per-
hitting him to draw checks on
the bank. Extending credit in
wolves confidence that a business
man will through carrying on his
activities be in position in SO. SO
or 30 days to meet obligations
which he cannot pay off out OF
cash on hand at present. In
granting q loan the bank is really
exchanging its own credit stand
ing Tor that OF its customer.
Legal Reserve
The bank needs only to keep a
legal reserve against deposits. IL
can regard q $1,000 deposit az a
reserve for $4,000 in derivatiye
deposit created by entering on
the band ledger the fact that
come other customer has received
3 loan for that amount.
Modern bankers are descend
ants of goIdsmiths, to whom
wealthy men used to bring their
gold for safekeeping. Recognize
ing that the depositors would not
call for their money at once, the
goIdsnifns began increasing their
revenue by lending it out to needy
persons at substantial interest.
But under the technique of mod
ern banking. loans are multiplied
far beyond the actual amount OF
the physical money in existence.

SENATOR SCHAtL
'NOW BACKS HOOVER
.MinneSotan Announces Stand
After Conference With
President.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG,
stan Correspondent Of The Star.

SUPERIOR, Wis, September A.
Senator Thomas D. Schall, Republican.
Of Minnesota. who recently announced
that he could not support Herbert
Hoover for President because of his in
difference toward agriculture. has climb
ed aboard the Hoover band wagon and is
predicting his election in November.
This change of heart on Senator
Schalls part was announced by him
today in the corridor just outside the
door to the Presidents Office, where he
had iust been for a long conference
with the Executive.
Whether or not the blind Senator's
talk with Mr.. Coolidge was responsible
for his shift was not learned, but there
Is reason to know that the President
and he went into the political situation
thoroughly.
1t is needless to say that Senator
Schalls announcement came as sur
prise. He stated that he had been
trife lukewarm toward Hoover because
of the latterS failure to be more def
mite in his treatment of agricultural
4
because Of the farm plan in the Repub-
| lican platform He stated that he never
announced that he would oppose Mr..
| Hoover: he was merely not enthusiastic.
| However. since thinking the matter over
/ and realizing that the Democrats have
nothing to offer in the way of farm
relief, he has come to the conclusion
| that it would be far better for the
country to elect Hoover and Curtis than
Smith and Robinson.
Hopeful of Relief.
Senator Schall said at the executive
Office that II there is to be any re-
| lief legislation for the farmer any time
soon it is more likely to come from Re-
publicans than Democrats. Moreover, ne
sas confidence in Mr.. Hoovers ability
and honesty and he now feels confident
that if Mr.. Hoover promises to draw up
some kind of relief plan, he will make
good his promise. He feels certain also
that the plan will be practical and
workable.
The Senator stated that Smiths
stunning of the equalization fee is GO
ing to lose him many votes in the West.
He declared Smiths attitude toward the
fee will cost him more votes in Mime
sofa and other agricultural States than
he will corral by his wet policies.
In making known his Endorsement OF
Hoover, Senator Schall assured PreSi-
dent Coolidge that Hoover will carry
Minnesota by safe margin. He said
it was his belief that Senator Ship
stead. Farmer-Labor candidate for re-
election, will defeat his Republican op-
ponent in November, but he expects
Gov. ChriStianson, who is running on
the Republican ticket, to defeat his
Farmer Labor opponent.
President Coolidge was represented as
announcing to correspondents that he
has not decided on the day for his
leaving for Washington. but intinated
it is not far off. Indications are that
he will be back at the White House be-
fore the end of next week. He said his
intended visit to New England is quite
indefinite.

PRISONER LEAVES
BY UNLOCKED DOOR
Fourth Precinct Police Looking for
Man Who Walked
From Cell.

Indignant police Of the fourth pre-
cinct today were searching Tor Alexsn-
der Hawkins. colored. 42S @ street. who
walked out Of the station house Sunday
night after he had been locked" IN
cell following his arrest on a speeding
charge.
It seems that some time ago a lock
on one of the cells was broken and
repairman was called in. Unable TO
fix the lock, he carried it away.
Being in need Of cells, a reSourceful
officer hit upon the plan of fastening
the door with a chain passed through
the bars ana secured with a paddock.
This worked for several days, but the
officer who arrested Hawkins forgot the
lock and contented himself with slam
ming the door.
After the officer had gene, Hawkins
looked up from his bunk and noticed
the door standing open. Without both
ering to notify the policemen IN the
front room. he walked out through the
garage in the rear and has not been
seen since.
