BANKING MERGERS
AGAIN IN PROSPECT
Movement Toward Greater
Combines Is Revived on
Larger Scale.
nisnatch 10 The star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. March 10.-Reported
negotiations for merging the Chase
National Bank and the Equitable Trust
Co. of New York into one greater
institution, with consolidated resources
aggregating between two and three
billion dollars, suggests that we are
entering a new era of bank mergers. 1t
will be recalled that any~huge bank
combinations were effected last year,
the greatest of them having been the
Co. and the National Bank of Com
merce into a two-billion- dollar institu"
ton.
The break in the stock market last
Autumn attended as it was by the
National City Bank Corn Exchange
Bank merger fiasco, abruptly halted
that movement, however. Nor had any
revival been expected so shortly after
that blow to confidence had fallen,
because it was doubted that bankers
would undertake ambitious mergers
without the inspiration of a business
boom and a rampant bull stock market.
Theorists Mistaken.
It now appears that those theorists
who predicted a prolonged suspension
of the bank consolidation movement
were mistaken, for, undismayed by the
slackening of business activity or the
market break, bankers are said to be
+, planning the biggest merger of them
| all, which If consummated will give the
United States undisputed supremacy as
| posSeSsor of the greatest banking insti-
! tuition in the world.
! The popular impression created by
! the big bank mergers that have charac-
/ terized recent Wall Street history has
been that race is on between powerful
rival banking groups to see which shall
have the largest institution. There may
be a certain element of sentiment in
the movement, but the fundamental
| reasons for bank mergers are more
| practical than that. The fact of the
matter is that bigger banks are neceS-
| sary to provide the credit facilities and
| banking service which the bigger bust
ness of today requires. Before the war
we had billion dollar corporations and
billion dollar banks. Now we have two
billion dollar corporations, such as
American Telephone and United States
Jersey not far behind, and we require
| two billion dollar banks.
The reasons are obvious. The law
limits to 10 per cent of banks capital
resources the amount which it may loan
| to a single borrower. AS big business
grows bigger, it requires larger loans
to finance it. Banks must be in posi-
ton to satisfy their customers needs
! in that respect.
Other Advantages.
There are many other advantages
Bank mergers are a quick method of
obtaining larger deposits, so necessary
to the banking business, and new ac-
| counts are particularly hard to get
now, as any broker will confess. A
third advantage is the economies eff
fected through cutting down overhead
A fourth is the greater diversification
OF business obtained. Thus the Chase
| Equitable merger would be an ideal
combination because it would. give the
Chase great trust company business,
OF which it, Of course. has none, and
trust business is one Of the most profit
able branches of banking.

the Federal Government took no

that the Constitution forbade it.
Our Government can only
operate with the privilege of free

astounding story of liquor,

The most amazing part of
the whole story will be the
charge that officials of the
bureau are so fearful of dis,
closures of corruption that
they are being intimidated by
employees, permitting employees
to continue in the service when
they know they are corrupt
and inefficient.
