PerpetuatinR Old Symbol

Did you know that you are be-
Ing religious when you write to
your best girl and put several
crosses near your signature at the
bottom OF the letter, says an artI-
Gle In a Portland (Ore.) paper.
The origin of the symbol dates back
to the days when only the priests
and the favored few could write.
Others made their mark on wills.
deeds and other documents. The
signer made his mark in the form
of cross, which was equivalent to
swearing by the cross that he would
be faithful to the pledge he had
made. Just as today the President
kisses the Bible when he is inaugu-
rated, so in those days the man
who signed will or deed made
his mark in the form of a cross
and kissed 1t. out of reverence.
kissing the cross thus became as
soeiated with kisses.

Banker-Fa armer Plan

An editorial in Southern Cultivatoi
says: Favorable comment is being
made upon the wisdom and prom
ised results Of the farmer-banker
agricultural program in Georgia.
Industrial leaders and publicists,
noting that 115 Of the 161 counties
In the state have pledged prosecu-
tion Of the 'live-at-home farm re-
form, are regarding the working out
Of the plan this year as of more
interest to American farmers than
any developments Of the Soviet five
year plan in Russia. Agricultural
actuaries are of the opinion that If
Georgia farmers, backed by our co.
operating bankers and supply men,
demonstrate the expected econo-
niles and profits Of this home-sup-
port plan, it will quickly become a
contagious custom all over the agri
cultural areas of the nation. It will
be the writing of new declaration
OIL independence for the Individual
ist farmers of the country, putting
them upon solid terms OF credit and
prosperity without need Of recourse
to federal or state financial relief
measures. The man of the soil who
lives year in and year out ON his
own will stand up in his community
az an economic freeman, making
his own terms with the world OF
finance and trade"

TRUST BANKING
SPREADING FAST
Government Official Shows
That This Type of Finan-
cial Service is Enlarg-
ing Its Field.

SPECTACULAR growth of trust
service in the banking field Is
fiected in the national banking sys-
tenn, Aubrey B. Carter, in charge Of
Trust department supervision In
the office of Comptroller of the Cur
rency, Washington, D. c., brings
out in an article in the American
Bankers Association Journal.
"At the close of the 1880 fiscal
year there were 2,472 national
banks with trust powers" he says.
Their banking resources aggre-
gated $23,529, 100000, which repre-
sented "a per cent of the number
of banks and 80 per cent of the
total banking resources of the 1852
national banks. Trust departments
had been established by 1929 of
these banks which were administer
ing $4,000 individual trusts with
trust assets aggregating $4,473,-
100000, and in addition were admin
istering 11,50O corporate trusts
and acting as trustees for outstand.
ing note and bond issues aggregat.
ing $11,SO3,7OO,OOO.
"These figures represent an in
crease during four-year period Of
446, or % per cent, in the number
of national banks authorized to
exercise trust powers; an increase
OF 725, or &C per cent, in the mum
Der OF banks actively administering
trusts; an increase Of $3.50, OF
ESQ per cent, in the number OF
trusts being administered; an In
crease of $4,000, 100000, or 3S5 per
cent, in the volume Of Individual
trust assets under administration,
and an increase Of s9,34O,O 100000, or
379 per cent, in the volume OF bond
issues outstanding for which these
institutions were acting as trus-
tees"
These facts, he concludes, are "a
striking testimonial Of the growing
public recognition of the desirable
ity of the corporate fiduciary In tho
settlement of estates and the a6
ministration of trusts"
