NEW YORK, September 28.-Dras-

the leading motion picture companies
in the strongest position they have
occupied for years. according to a new
survey of the motion picture industry

NEW YORK, September 28-Cables
and radio dispatches to Business Week
give the following survey of business
abroad for the week ending today:
LONDON.-"War fears have caused
markets to fiuctuate widely and have
retarded stock market business, but
the undertone is still hopeful.
Chancellor Chamberlain's straight
warning that more vigorous rearming
is needed makes sanctions a reality,
and implies that there will be heavy
budget expenditures unless he is per-
suaded to favor the much-canvasSed
defense loan, which the city would
welcome as an alternative to higher
income taxes.
"In the meantime, iron, steel, air
craft and other industries tied into
military program are working at top
speed"
PARIS.-"Except for the announce
ment of the 1885 budget estimate, the
week has been very uneventful as far
as business is concerned.
"Steel is slightly more active; tex
tiles are a little more sluggish, except
silk, which is booming.
Lyons, the silk center. has, how
ever, not lost its head with this first
spark Of profitable activity in several
years and has decided to maintain
prices as far as possible so that the
Paris dressmakers will utilize silk to
the fullest extent in the new styles"
BERLIN-"Despite its isolation,
the German bourse, following closely
the weeks European news, shifted
from dark pessimism to questionable
optimism.
Though in the event of economic
sanctions Germany is likely to take
advantage of the situation to increase
its supplies to Italy, especially OF coal,
steel and chemicals, Berlin is quite
aware that exports are necessarily
limited by Italys ability to pay in
merchandise under the clearing agree
ment and the scarcity of other war
materials in Germany.
"T'he public cheered up noticeably
when the August export surplus was
announced 1t cuts the trade deficit
for the first eight months of the year
to about one-third the figure for last
year. and rouses the hope that, after
all, DR.. Schacht's rigorous program to
boost exports may be working"

almost phenomenal proportions, be-
ing more than half again as large as

In an address on banking before

Evening star., 1935-09-29

At the beginning of 1882 there were
about 10000 banks. The number has
been reduced since then to approxi-
mately $4,000 through consolidation,
absorption and partly through individ-
ual failures. To further strengthen the
banking structure Mr.. Siddons urged
more consultations of the stronger
banks with the weaker and establish
ment of main or parent banks with
many branches, all privately owned,
with adquate Federal regulation.
Discusses Safeguards.
In discussing safeguards for de-
positors included in recent banking
legislation Mr.. Siddons pointed out
that the Federal Government, through
its agencies, now has the power to re-
move any officer or director of bank
which is a member of the Federal
Reserve system or the Federal De-
posit Insurance Corp. who has dem
onstrated inability to perform the
functions of his Office. The speaker
then explained the advantages of the
Federal deposit insurance, expressing
the opinion that before long depositors
themselves will be required to pay for
this protection.
In the event that reserve funds of
banks are decreased, the Federal Re-
serve Board now has the power to
increase the legal reserve considered
necessary for its members, thereby
preventing any such a situation as
confronted the country early in 1892,
Mr.. Siddons said.
