October was 5 per cent better

DEPOSITS

There were decreases Of eighty

ment deposits.
Licensed member banks for

Haney Finds Business
Trend Is Favorable

further rise of about 40 per cent
If that 1925 level is to be attained.
incidentally, we note that Of
late the price adjustment has be-
come somewhat less favorable to
the farmer. According to Govern
ment computations, farm products
declined from December to De-
cember 13, while goods bought by
farmers remained unchanged.
Farm Needs Higher
This leaves farm prices only 68
per cent as high as they were just
before the war, while the things
farmers buy are Is per cent higher
than then. Thus Government
statiSticians figure that the pur-
chasing power of farm products
is only SO per cent of what they
consider desirable.
Incidentally, the Governments
price" for buying gold remained
unchanged all week. This tends
to confirm the idea that the Ad-
miniStration is disposed to soft
pedal the policy of marking down
the dollar by direct methods, and
to rely more largely upon the
policy of borrowing and spending
at home.
This is the significance of the
outstanding event of the week,
namely, the Presidents budget
message.
We learned that an increase in
the Federal public debt to up
wards of 80 billion dollars is con-
templated. On top of this it is
proposed to have the Government
guarantee four billion dollars Of
Home Loan and Farm Loan
bonds, which virtually adds that
much more. There are outstand-
ing nearly 20 billion dollars Of
State and local debt.
Still Within Resources
This brings the prospective total
public debt up to Sd billion dollars,
or something like $430 per man,
woman and child, or $4,000 per
family.
Considering our resources, this
is not impossible. It is probably
exceeded by several foreign coun'
tries. But it is getting big enough
to suggest caution.
We do not want to get in such
shape that all business gains will
go to pay taxes. Nor do we want
to raise prices in a way that will
increase expenses faster as prices
rise.
I note that a New York city
postoffice structure, which would
have cost SO ,649, 900 last February
now finds the lowest bid to be
$4,294, 900.

COTTON PRICES

PROF|T|NG

NEW YORK, Jan. 9 G.N.SJ.
Cotton futures eased today under
moderate profit taking, attracted
by the rise in prices which yester-
day carried the list to the highest
levels in six months.
The market, however, main
tanned a fairly steady undertone,
as most Of the contracts were alb
sorbed by the trade.
Sales from the South remained
light and scattered, while local
and professional traders sold dis
tant months.
The Far East bought March and
Wall Street made moderate pur-
chases in distant months. New
Orleans also bought.
Noon quotations were off three
to four points, with March off 4
at 1868, May off 4 at 1924, July
off 3 at 11.00, and october off 3
at 11.17.

ADS
INCREASING

During the past four years
life insurance has increased it's
advertising expenditure while
advertising in most industries
has been cut to the bone, Nelson
A. White, in charge OF adver.
tising Of the Provident Mutual
Life Insurance Company Of Phil
adelphia and president of the
Life Advertising Association,
states in the current issue OF
Advertising Age.
The 1888 appropriation for
national advertising Of life in
surance was approximately two
thirds greater than the 1929 fig
ure, Mr.. White pointed out, add
ing that Appropriations for
1884 should further accelerate
the unique upward trend that
has characterized life insurance
advertising during the past four
years." he says.
This rise was not altogether
due to increased budgets, but
was due in part to the addition
of several new life insurance
national advertisers, five of
which entered the field in 1888.
It is rumored that one or TWO
other companies are considering
campaigns during the coming II
months.

BANKING SHOWS
BETTERMENT

Continued improvement in the
banking situation is indicated oy
figures presented by Comptroller
of the Currency j. F. T. O'Connor
which reveals that at the end Of
1882 there were 448 unlicensed
national banks in the United
States.
There were 1,446 institutions
with total deposits of $2,232,690,-
900, based on the condition report
for December, 1882, unlicensed
and in the hands of conservators
following the declaration Of the
bank holiday.
OF the 448 banks unlicensed on
December 30, some 337 with 1884,
70,00O frozen and $25, 5,813,000 un-

Demand for Silver
Reported GrOIUinq

NEW YORK, Jan. 9 G.N.S0. .
Increased speculative buying of
silver in 1888 and larger use of the
white metal in the arts in the
United States is reported by Handy
d Harman in their annual review.
Rising prices on the market here
are attributed in large measure
to the desire of Americans to
hedge against depreciation of the
dollar. No great expansion in use
Of the metal ir coinage is expected,

The automobile producers, too,
have in some cases been slow IN
getting started on new models,
owing to labor difficulties and
the necessity of sweeping changes
in design. .
The decline in shipments OF
cotton to the mills reflects q
timely effort to curtan the output
of cloth and yarn, where pro-
duction had threatened to become
excessive last fall. as seen in the
narrowing margin between raw
cotton and cotton goods prices.
But electric power production
did better than usual for the
season, and so did railway car
loadings as a whole. These are
the two broadest indexes which
are available weekly, so we may
safely conclude that the turn OF
the year was made on a rising
trend in business activity.
Car LOadings Mixed
The carloadings showed rather
mixed movements. For example,
shipments of ore and coke were
up and larger than a year ago,
while miscellaneous freight and
merchandise in less than carlots
were down, and the latter was be-
low last year. Rail shipments OF
grain and livestock were both be-
low last year, indicating some OF
the farmers troubles.
Commodity prices were irregu-
lar, and on the whole about un-
changed last week. Thus the year
1888 ended with wholesale prices
about Is per cent higher than at
the heginning. but reduiring q
