II such lenders and non-member banks
were included the total amount Of
security loans undoubtedly would be
found TO be far greater than the total
Of more than $4,000, 00o, 900 given by
the Federal Reserve Board.
The board has also assembled flg-
ures for quarterly periods rs far back
as 1898. Those show that the total
security loans, so far as available, are
the smallest in the period covered, or
about two years. They also show that
the grand total Of loans at the peak
last october 4 was $16,S74, 000, 900.
Drop Of 30 Per Cent.
The decrease in total loans evidently
has been much less than the shrinkage
in brokers loans for, whereas the lat
ter now are less than one-half of what
they were last october, the combined
bank and brokers loans on securities
have diminished only about 80 per cent.
The deduction to be made from those
statistics Is that II too much money
u still tied up in securities, the bur-
den Of effecting deflation rests on banks
and not on stock brokers.

Examiner Finds Situation in West

on Institutions.
Special Dispatch to The star.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, August as
"Banks managed by good bankers are
IN q sound position" said bank ex-
aminer who has been working in the
drought territory for eight weeks.
While the deposits are of 20 per cent In
the rural banks, the extreme care that
has been exercised during the past
where they can carry through the
present depletion of credit without
great difficulty. The note that was
good Q year ago Is good now. The
most seriously hurt customers are cat
tie men. They made money for two
previous years, some as high as so
per cent q year on their operations.
II they put that money back into cat
tie they are all right: II they put 1t
equity the drop in the market may
have wiped them out entirely.
'The city banks have plenty OF
money to loan on cattle; the prices
are 30 low 90 10 make safe loan.
Many of the little rural banks are
not 80 Well off-they have simply used
UP all their money as deposits have
decreased and loans have been slow.
This is causing many, consultations
and the closing of banks by their d.
rectors. The drought country does not
need charity; It does need loans at
low rates until it can recover. Many
sections are in no suffering condition
and the situation Is SO spotted that
It Is required special treatment for
successful assistance"
The more normal weather Of this
week has given courage TO the interior
and Is making for o better tone in
business, but many adjustments in
prices win be necessary to promote q
really active trade. While trade has
Jagged all Summer some encourage
ment may be found In the fact that
merchants had previously bought eau
tiously, having been unwilling to build
up stocks In view of the trade situa-
ton. Hence Autumn will see the
shelves without accommodations and with
q possibility Of requirements in Q
greater degree.
Implement sales for this territory
have fallen on as per cent compared

Accumulation by Investors Is Believed
Reason for Recent Advances in Market.
Loans at Low Figure.

June 80, the latest date to which any
are available.
Those figures were gathered by the
Federal Reserve Board in Washington.
They are the most complete the board
itself ever has assembled. Heretofore
the boards figures included only loans
Of brokers In the New York Federal
Reserve district and loans Of report
ing member banks of the Federal Re-
serve System. They excluded loans by
member banks which do not make
weekly reports TO the board. The
board recently sought to obtain more
complete figures by enlisting the aid
Of the controller Of the currency in
obtaining loan figures of member banks
which do not make weekly reports to the
board. For the first time, therefore,
IL has been possible to arrive at q
comprehensive figure on total member
bank and brokers' loans on securities.
All Loans Not Included.
The aggregate Of $l2,050, 00O, 600
loans on securities IS compiled by the
Federal Reserve Board includes loans
specifically reported to the controller
OF the currency on call dates by all
member banks, and in addition loans
made to brokers on the New York Stock
Exchange not embraced in the member
bank figures. While those are the most
complete statistics ever compiled they
yet do not embrace all loans on securi-
ties. There are State banks which
make no reports 10 either the Federal
Reserve Board OH the controller of the
currency and there also are non bank
ing lenders who do not loan to mem,

special DISPATCH 10 me star.
NEW YORK, August 23.-Buying Of
stocks on margin apparently has been
less Of factor in the recent recov-
cry in prices on the New York Stock
Exchange than accumulation by in
vestors able to finance their purchases
without the aid Of brokers loans. That
is the only valid explanation Of the
fact that brokers reported o decrease
OF $27 200, 900 in loans during the last
week.
ON the basis Of that decline loans
have declined to the lowest aggre-
gate amount in about three years. They
are but little more than one-half OF
what they were at this time year ago.
New York Stock Exchange statistics
show that the ratio of brokers loans
to the total value of securities listed
on the exchange is the lowest it has
been since records have been kept
1t is obvious that the technical posi-
ton of the stock market has been cor
respondingly strengthened. So far as
brokers loans are concerned, then, there
Is nothing to worry about.
Total Loans on Securities.
In the case OF total loans on securities
one cannot be quite so sure of the
liquidity Of the market. Statistics show
that only about one-fourth OF ell the
money tied up in security loans has
been loaned through brokers. The latest

NEW YORK, August 23.-In a small

Legal railroad issues were buoyant.

4 MAN

Pine county citizens had the pleas
ure and privilege of listening to a
very able speaker in the Honorable
:. A. Stockwell, for many years a
member of the Minnesota legislature
and an outstanding leader in the state
for over a quarter of century, at
Pine City last Friday evening. Know
ing him to be a man of clean morals,
fine character and fighter for what
he deems right, and a student of pub
lie affairs. it is revelation to hear
such a man and to be in his company
He is vast contrast to the petty
politician who seeks favorS and is in
the office to feather his own nest. the
kind who votes in favor of the big
corporations for such concessions as
getting jobs for sons and daughters
How can a man be of any benefit to
the thousands he represents i'm public
life when he stoopS to small lifts for
himself and those who are closest to
him? Once bought by such favors
from the big corporations the poll
tician remains in their pocket and
his influence for public good is ex-
ceedingly limited. He becomes a mere
hireling. Yes. il is a revelation to
hear a man like Mr.. Stockwell, a man
who has principals and who stands by
his convictions to the last ditch-a
man whom the spoils of office cannot
touch.

A MOST IMPORTANT ECONOMIC
ISSUE
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
The Hon. S. A. Stockwell in his talk
at Pine City explained about his bill
which he has for some time been in
terested in getting passed by the Min
nesOta state legislature. The bill
simply specifies that the people of
the state of Minnesota are to have the
privilege to vote to give future leg
islature the power to bond the state
of Minnesota to put in as they deem
it necessary hydro-electric or power
plants at points where it is to the
advantage of the people of the state
This is to be with the object in view
that these plants act as a competitor
in field in which today there is no
competition, thus giving the people
who are using electricity an oppor-
tunity for lower rates-a condition
which is existing in city after city,
especially in Ontario, Canada: also
Seattle and Tacoma; Rochester, Alex
andria, Willmar, and other places in
Minnesota. This threat of the state
having the privilege to go into sec
tion of the state and putting up an
electric plant would have more influ-
ence in regulating rates of corpora
ton owned plants than any regulatory
commission.
A legislator who opposes this bill
cannot trust in the judgment of the

THE UNFORTUNATE
Editor ASkov American:

Editor Askov American:
In answer to Mrs. Joe Chatelle's
communication to the Askov American
of Jan. 23rd with reference to the
poor farm and the poor of Pine coun-
ty, will say that the poor house is
quite frequently criticised by some of
the taxpayers. While this criticism
has no foundation, nor merit, yet it
exists. The county commissioners
cannot always do as we would wish
to do. We must use and we do use
our best judgment as to which is the
cheapest and best way to take care
of this situation under the prevailing
circumstances.
The law says that we must take
care of the poor and the helpless. The
only way we have to do this is either
to send them to the poor farm, If I'M
der the law they are physically fit to
be admitted. or if we can get someone
who will take care of them cheaper
than We can have it done at the poor
