HARD TIMES RENEW
BANKERS OPTIMISM
Former Bankers Chief Finds
Much in Past Year to Inspire
Confidence in Financial
Reliability

DOME c. STEPHENSON, retiring
~ president of the American Bank
ers Association, declared in an address
on the expiration of his term of Office
that, in travelling about among the
banks from one end of the country to
the other during the past year, he had
come out Of 1t with renewed faith
in the strength Of our banking struc-
ture and our banking situation. and a
renewed faith particularly in the spirit
and courage of the men in the banks
that have enabled them to rise uncon.
quered over difficulties such as men
never had to face before, or to accept
with fortitude misfortunes that were
beyond human power to prevent"
When he reflected, he said, that the
entire human economic structure has
been brought to the verge of ruin un-
der the difficulties that have swept
over not only the nation but the entire
world, and that the results of events
Of this kind react with particular di.
rectness upon the stability of our
banks, and yet how few have sue.
cumbed, we may well renew our conf.
dence in the banks of America; when
we think also of how many of our
bankers have stood up under the stress
and storms of these times and how
relatively few Of them have been
proved wanting in the series of crises
that have assailed them, we may well
feel sincere pride in our fellow bank
ers." He added:
$50 come out of this year of SOM
Der experiences not as a pessimist, but
as an optimist-as one with renewed
faith and confidence in the spirit Of
his fellow men under overwhelming
difficulties. And particularly do l come
out of this year as banker who is
proud of his fellow bankers for the un-
daunted way in which they have met
their part of the great test through
which the times have put the nation.
I believe that this year has brought
new honor to our banking traditions
and our banking profession and has
won for the banker new title to the
faith and trust of all classes of his
fellow citizens"

Of this forward-looking plan of cooper.

of the most constructive steps that
have been taken toward revival Of

declared. adding:
"The National Credit Corporation
represents an instrumentality that
should have far-reaching effect in re-
storing the confidence of the public.
