Biz Banks Pare u. s.
Bond Holdings

The 20 largest banks in the
United States, in their current
June 80 statements, reveal an IN
crease in loans since June 30, 1896,
Of about one billion dollars, while
their holdings Of United States
Government securities, direct and
guaranteed, declined in the same
peroid a little over one billion
dollars, according to q summary
published by the American Banker.
In the face of the reported de-
cline in holdings Of Government
securities by these 20 banks, it is
of interest to note that Washing
ton banks increased their hold
ings Of these securities.
Local Loans Up
Total loans in local banks were
also greater on June 80, being
$102, 1888, 900, an increase of SILL.
S49, 900, while holdings of Govern.
ment securities were about 3d.
10000 above the figure of q
year ago.
Comparison Of deposit totals
this mid-year of the 20 largest
banks reveals that they were al
most exactly at the same level
they were q year ago, while de-
posts in all Washington banks
at the same time were slightly
higher than a year ago, in excess
of last years figures by about
50, 900 900.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-07-21

In the 20 largest banks cited,
however, deposits actually rose to
above $17,000,050, 900 on Deem
Der 81, 1886, a gain of almost
$500, 100000 in the last half of
1886. However, when the increase
in reserve requirements went into
effect on March 1 and May /, in
terror banks called back several
hundred million dollars on de.
post in their large city correspon-
dent banks and these Withdrawals
offset entirely the $500, 600, 900
rise to December 81 and any in
crease in other deposit accounts
in the period since December 81,
1896.
Increase in Cash
Also, due to the increase in re-
serve requirements in the past
half-year, the 20 largest banks
show an increase in their cash
compared to mid-year in 1886.
This increase in cash also ap-
pears to have been made avail
able by liquidation of U. S. Gov
eminent securities owned.

F f W CHANGES
SEEN IN STEEL
PRICES

NEW YORK, July 21.-Present
prices on virtually all steel pro
ducts were reaffrimed for fourth
quarter on Tuesday by the Ger
negie- Illinois Steel Corporation.
An exception was made Of gal
vanized sheets and possibly some
other items, on which announce
ment will be made later, according
to the Iron Age summary.
The announcement Of un-
changed prices specifically cover
ed bars and small shapes, structu.
raj shapes, plates, tin plate and
other tin mill products, strip,
sheets, sheet piling, standard and
light tee rails and accessories, car
and locomotives axles, solid
wrought steel wheels and semi
finished products for delivery in
the United States by December
81. 1887.
The seasonal lull in new steel
business is beginning to have an
effect on operations despite the
presence of substantial backlogs in
some products and the fact that
plants that were recently affected
by strikes have increased their
output over that Of a week ago.

STOCK MARKET
IRREGULAR
ANDQUIET
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, July 81 U.NSJ.
The stock market was quiet and
irregular today. Few Of the .rela-
lively active groups seemed to
have resistance to the softneSs ap-
parent in the general market.
The rather widespread bullish
sentiment Of the street yesterday
had been supplanted by an opin-
ion that advances in leading issues
now justified a slight recession.
Rails were soft at the very open
ing, with few exceptions, but with
in the first hour, a slight rally
was obvious. Some Of the motors
which at the outset had turned
soft, quickly recovered their early
losses.

LESS THAN 4 MONTH
TO GO NOW

A lot of people are by way of repeat
ing the errors of past years, all be-
cause they do not yet realize that the
annual Imperial county midwinter fair
is less than month away. Business
men and farmers who will have exhibits
at the fair have only limited time to
prepare those exhibits. Many of them,
delaying too long, will rush to the fair
grounds at the last minute with some
thing which will not do them nor their
business or farm full justice. 1t should
not be so.
The midwinter fair is Imperial coun-
tys one big chance to lay before the
world all of its attractions. The task
is such huge one that, with all respect
for the men who handle the job, it has
never been fully done. This is no reflec-
ton on the fair board or any of the fair
officials-they have done all they can
The rest of the job must be done by
the rank and file of farmers, business
men and others interested in the well
fare of the county. Without their help,
the fair board is hamstrung to start
with.
We hope that this years fair will be
the most successful in the county's his
tory. 1t should and very probably will
show an improvement over last year,
which in turn showed an improvement
over the year before. This trend of con-
tinued improvement is all that anyone
should ask. 1t means that, eventually,
we will reach the goal toward which we
all should aim.
Whatever Imperial county can do to
make the midwinter fair success 1t
should do early and not at the last min
ute. There will be enough to do then,
without waiting.

into closed pits, taken out coal, and
sold it, in order to keep alive. The
whole business is technically as
illegal as the stealing of money
from a bank. Yet the governor OF
Pennsylvania has refused to use
state troops to stop it, and public
sentiment in general has supported
him.
Again, why? Is il because people
have felt that justice, somehow, was
on the side of the miners? Their
right to work at the only jobs they
knew has somehow looked superior
to the mine-owners' right to close
their mines even though there is
nothing in our law to countenance
it.
Now all this does not mean that
the Flint sitdowners had complete
and unsullied justice on their side.
1t does mean that we cannot hope
to understand this new factor in
labor relations unless we realize
that this slow change in attitude
has been taking place.
Our job right now is TO think
the thing through, to ascertain just
where job-right and property-right
cut across each other, and to decide
precisely how far our attitude to-
ward the working mans relation
to his job needs to be altered to fit
changing times.
Chinese have seemingly queer
customs. When meeting a friend
they shake their own hand. They
wear hats indoors, and remove them
when they go outside.
Although the Statue of Liberty,
in New York harbor, was not COM
pleted until 1886, the famous torch
and forearm arrived at New York
in 1876, and was displayed at Mad
ison Square Garden for 10 years.

Bruce Cation Says:>>
Job-Right VS.. Property-Right : A Change?

No time is so hard to live in as
one in which people change their
ideas without realizing that they
are doing it. And one of the things
that make life SO perplexing today
is the fact that we have uncon-
sciouSly moved toward new view
point on lot of important matters.
There is. for instance, the matter
of the strike; of such thing as
the General Motors sitdown strike,
TO be specific.
There can be no shadow of a
doubt that the sitdown at Flint,
Mich, was illegal. The sitdowners
simply took possession of property
not theirs and refused to give it
I'D until their demands were met.
There is nothing in our law to give
the slightest countenance to such a
course.
And yet it is perfectly obvious
that the sitdowners did not look on
themselves as lawbreakers. And the
Michigan authorities did not move
to throw them out as lawbreakers,
even though they had court order
TO do SO.
X \, 4
Why? Is it because our whole
attitude toward jobs and property
rights has undergone subtle
change-a change of which we were
hardly conscious until the trouble
at Flint forced it on our attention?
We are beginning, in other words,
to feel that this whole business of
rights" is a great deal more COM
plex than we used to suppose.
A sample of our changed attitude
can be found in the much discussed
"bootleg coal mines" of Pennsyl-
vania. Jobless miners have gone
