bankers responded.
Governmental spending is a form
of initiation. It benefits-for a while
even such anti-New Deal groups as
General Motors and the Liberty Lea
guers. Money pours into their cof-
fers. But, then, two things occur
later. The government, running more
and more into debt, may depreciate
money, causing it to be worth less;
and taxes are increased.
DEPOSITS RISE
Rising bank deposits are no cause
for iubilation.
Bankers are fearful of them.
Much of the increase is due to gov
eminent borrOwing-the government
sells the banks notes and bonds in
return for credit. The new credit is
kept on deposit till dissipated The
bonds are counted as assets, as vir-
tual cash. Yet they are I. o. US

I. o. us whose repayment must be
arranged for by the government out
of the resources Of the nation.
The banks-Federal Reserve and
member banks-have an overwhelm-
ing amount of reserves or credit. If
the safeguards against a runaway
speculation ever break, we shall see
the dizziest prosperity" we ever have
had-and the widest collapse. Thus
say the pessimists.
DIFFERENCES
The Roosevelt administration is
viewed by observers as trying to
bring about recovery without sharp
social readjustment.
To understand the situation, one
must see the influences at work:
l. Those who would return to the
pre-Roosevelt age-termed by oppo-
nents as "laissez-faire capitalism"
2. Those who believe in the Roose-
vent method of spending, with a mo-
dicum of social establishments in
hours and wages, with all prices tend
ing upward-termed by opponents as
budget unbalancers."
3. Those who would "cure all ills"
by manipulating or initiating money
and credit and paying pensions
termed by opponents as wealth de-
stroyers' or by an undignified new
term, "crackpots."
4. Those who would readjust the
entire social structure, making a vir-
tual cooperative state, booming capt.

LONDON, October 1o.-A very i'm
portant week in the financial district
has passed most satisfactorily. The
early stage of the new currency re-
alignment was surmounted with as
tonishing smoothness and lack of dis
concerting movements. This gives real
hope for a moderate early achievement
of world exchange stability, although
there are as yet no binding agreements.
Hopefulness for the ultimate future
is still shared by all, from the highest
responsible authorities to the ordinary
business men. 1t is felt here that the
inevitable devaluation of the gold bloc
was accomplished in the best possible
manner.
Deadlock Believed at End.
Also the accompanying declarations
by the American and British treas
uries, although giving no definite I'M
dertakings, have been interpreted by
world opinion as vital presage to the
willingness of statesmen to utilize the
new opportunities afforded by breaking
the old deadlock, such as the immedi-
ate tariff reductions by France and
Italy. 1t is realized that hopes are
still vague and that big difficulties,
especially in French political problems,
are pending, but the fact remains that
London is more actively cheerful than
since 1916.
The strength of government bonds
on Monday and Tuesday conceded with
a strong demand for industrials, which
were famed to boom proportions on
Wednesday by Chancellor Chamber
lain's speech of Tuesday night, in
which he reviewed British industrial
prospects and world trade possibility in
phrases of unaccustomed cheerfulness.
U. S. Recovery Watched.
The financial district is growing In
creasingly bullish over the Wall Street
outlook, with London participation ris-
ing. 1t is felt here that Wall Street
has already discounted the prospect of
a Roosevelt victory and must respond
to the big evidence of progressive in
dustrial recovery.
Commodities are all seen to be tend
ing slowly higher. 1t is hoped that
the boom in securities will take an
orderly and controlled course in New
York and London.

AT CHAIN STORES
September Rise of EOS Per

Since Depression.

NEW YORK, October 1o.-Septem-
Der chain store sales showed the
largest percentagewise gain since the
depression, according to the monthly
compilation released yesterday by
Hammons g. Co. and Childs, JefIries e.

the largest previous gain this year of
1879 per cent, reported in July. This
marks the fifth successive month that
the increase in. sales has been more
than Is per cent over the same months
last year.
Helped by Prices.
These gains, which occurred in spite
of the unseasonably warm weather
during the first part of the month,
were aided by generally rising retail
prices. marking a new phase Of the
current upturn, which has been in
progress since last April.
Reports from all sections Of the
country indicate that retail trade is
entering into probably the largest Fall
and early Winter business since 1929.
and, with rising prices entering into
trade as an important factor, along
with increasing business. reports for
the first week of October indicate
volume far in excess of anything
in recent years, with the exception,
of course, of the Christmas period.
Nine Months Reviewed.
For the first nine months of the
current year the volume of these
chains was 1920, e60,323, or IA per
