BANK TROUBLE
Analysed BY
RESERVE HEAD
Blame More on Men Than
on System, Declaration of
Chicago Speaker.
FROZEN ASSETS FAULT
State Association Members
Hear Criticisms in
Convention Talk.

Too many banks and too few
bankers -. the cause Of bank trou-
bles in our territory is the practice
Of banks assets being unliquid
as longtime real estate mortgages
the business patient may be sick,
but We know that it is not going to
die times are amazing, finding
our Golfers full Of idle money and
unused credit.
These pertinent criticisms of the
banking profession were made this
morning by Eugene M. Stevens,
chairman of the Federal Reserve
bank of Chicago, in an address be-
fore the thirty-f1fth annual conven-
ton Of the Indiana Bankers AsSo-
citation in the Claypool.
Stevens stressed the international
obligations of the nation. from
which we can not escape"
Caused by Frozen Assets
Most of the bank failures in the
last ten years have come from fro
zen or greatly deprecated assets"
he said.
Il venture the opinion that our
financial troubles have not been due
so much to the banking system as
to its administration. When BUSH
ness moved at high speed, banking
attracted many people without
training, and this, coupled with a
lack of discrimination in granting
bank charters, led to too many
banks and too few bankers to man
them" he said.
I'VE are learning lessons in these
troublesome times and one of i'm
portance is liquidity in banks. A
banks first obligation is to it's de-
positors, to meet their demands for
money when they want it.
Equities and securities based on
real estate during times of depres-
sion are about the most unliquid
thing a bank can carry.
Required Courage
THE greatest courage of all dur
ing speculative times was the cour-
age to be conservative, as some
bankers in the nation have been.
The public has a right to expect
banks to conduct business along
safe and non-speculative lines.
1.-The business index shows that,
except for seasonal effects, there
has not been much change in the
last four or five months. This leads
us to hope that drastic declines
have been checked and the next
change may be for the better.
1.-THE day will come, and it is not
far distant, when we will look back
on the present inertia in the use
of money and. credit with much the
same wondering criticism We low
apply to the hysteria of its misuse
a few years ago." he concluded.

of the Merchants Trust and Saw
ingS Company; DR.. Lionel D. Edie,

York, and T. D. Barr, deputy state
