PUBLIC ATTITUDE
HELPS THE BANKS
Annual Bankers Convention
Says People Have Had Conf
dence acknowledgements
Changed Government Policy

The restoratit o. public confidence
in banking has put it in the position
where it can function fully and vigor.
ously in playing its full economic part
in the progress of recovery, said the
American Bankers Association in its
annual convention resolutions.
THE passage of generally construc.
tive banking law in the Banking Act of
1885 has stabilized the banking situa.
ton and enabled bankers to devote un
divided attention tG the normal admin
istration of their institutions in pro.
noting the business and public welfare
of their communities" the resolutions
said.
I'VE feel that it is . particularly i'm
portant feature of this law that it aims
to create through the revision of the
Federal Reserve Board Supreme
Court of Finance which. with the non
political appointment of exceptionally
competent men should constitute one
Of the greatest forward steps in build
ing sound banking and credit system
for this country"
The Government in Banking
Another resolution said:
1--WE particularly emphasize the de-
STABILITY of the retirement of govern
ment from those fields of extending
credits OF various types which can be
adequately served by privately owned
institutions. We recognize that the
exigencies of the now passing depres
sion made necessary a large participa.
ton by government for time in the
task of meeting the pttblics emergency
financial needs.
Those conditions have been largely
remedied and he obligation now rests
upon the banks and other financial
agencies to demonstrate to the people
OF this country that they are fully able
and willing to meet all demands upon
them for sound credit cooperation. 1t is
our duty as bankers to facilitate in
every effective way the retirement of
government agencies from credit ac.
tivities by promoting public under.
standing of the proper function of pri
vately owned banking"

Americans Are
Hard to Scare
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
National Chairman
.SentineLs OF the Republic

During the past few years there has
been advocated in this country phil
oSophy utterly new to America.
1t is the Philosophy of Fear.
1t is preached by those who would
destroy our faith in America as q
nation and in the individual American
as a self-reliant, self-respecting citizen,
able and eager to pull his own weight
in the boat
1t seeks to convince us that oppor-
tunity in America has vanished, that
individual courage and initiative are
futile, that we should look to govern
ment or other agencies, rather than to
ourselves, for guidance and support.
That's what's behind most of the
queer social aid economic Lanaceas
being urged on us today That's the
emotion - Fear - that the men and
women who foster such foreign hrewed
ncstrums are trying to arouse in thu
American people. IT'S a preliminary
step - as Europe has proved - toward
Communism ana Dictatorship and other
paternalistic forms of government
inimical to our American tradition of
individual liberty in thought and in
action.
But the effort is doomed to failure
Americans as a people, are hard to
scare. Their history proves it.
Timid men could not have conquered
a continent. Tinid men could not hare
built great naoion out of tangled
forests and wind-swept prairies and
desert wastes. Timid men could not
have created our vast agricultural and
industrial empire.
1t took men CT courage, with faith
in themselves and In their countfy, to
achieve those things. 1t took the typical
American worker anu citizen. And lust
as it was this typical American--not
the demagogue or the thearist-who
made our country great, it will be the
typical American worker and citizen
who continues her progress.
America as l have said elsewhere.
is still full OF such Americans. And
anyone who thinks he can scare them
into acting like the frightened peasants
of Eastern Europe simply doesn't get
the meanirG Of our national history.

fundamentals which we believe are so
vital to our national welfare and which
have played a large part in bringing
our country, in comparatively short
space Of time, to the position of the
greatest industrial nation on the earth.
The Public and Banking
1t is necessary that the public have
thorough understanding of the func-
lions of banks, what they can do and
what they cannot do, for it must be
recognized that to many people the
business of banking is still somewhat
of mystery.
We should frankly explain these func-
tions to the public, acquaint them with
the laws under which we operate and
emphasize the vital part which banks
play in the economic life of the Nation.
Therefore, in order that there may be
the fullest cooperation and understand
ing between the banks and the people
of the country, it will also be one of our
detectives to take the mystery out of
banking wherever it exists in the public
mind
Banking Conferences
A series of Regional Conferences on
Banking Service will be held in strate-
gic sections of the country, embracing
all types of banking. The new banking
laws and the regulations issued there
under will be carefully analysed SO that
our bankers will have a thorough un.
derstanding of the broadened services
now made possible.
The question of public relations and
how we can best serve the people of our
communities will be another topic of
discussion. Clinics or forums on spe-
cific questions of interest to bankers
and the problems confronting them in
their particular localities will also be
included in these conferences.

JOE DE MAGIC
SENSATION OF

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, March
25. U.P)-Joe Di Maggie is the
whole story of the New York Yam
KEGS. This tan ycung Italian from
San Francisco's sandlots and Pac-
ific league clubs is the one big
sensation Of the Florida baseball
training season.
Baseball men say that Di Maggie
is the likeliest prospect ever 10
break in. Mere than that, astute
judges CT baseball material rate
Di Maggie, who hit 1898 on the
coast last year, not only a brilliant
rookie but a baseball player in the
true sense.
He's a natural fielder, and mar
Velous percentage hitter. He likes
baseball better than anything else.
And he may become the difference
between a club fighting for the
pennant and a club fighting to
stay out of second division.

Sarazen, here f-r the nCrth and

some sort of memorial shaft was

he hit the great, brassie to the
