Next Few Months Said
To Be Critical To War

LONDON, Sept. sO.-R-U.
5. War Production Chief Don
aid M. Nelson said today that
the next few months would be
critical in Allied production
for fashioning a killing blow
at the enemy.
Expressing his view at a
press conference following the
1irst London meeting of the
combined production and re-
sources board of the United
States, Britain and Canada he
said that a superhuman effort
was necessary by labor and
management to save the lives
of troops.
Ii any one lesson has been
driven home to me in Great
Britain" Nelson told news
men, "it is that the more we
produce the more lives we
save. We need more landing
craft. more planes, more We
hicles."

Commercial Banking Policies

also extremely low. It looks as
though they might be largely de-
pendent upon their service charges
and safe deposit box rentals.
Investment policies for Banks
The banking fraternity Is today
carrying too much of the govern
ment debt In the form OF bonds.
There should be proportionately
more in the hands Of the public than
in the hands of the banks. How
ever, while the rate of interest on
government holdings Is extremely
small, banks can be certain that
their holdings of governments-par-
ticularly those due within the next
ten years-will be paid at par upon
maturity. Furthermore, l do not
look for any extreme fluctuations
in their prices Immediately after
the war as was true OF the Liberty
Bonds Of World War l.
Unlike individual investors or
businessmen, banks cannat pro-
tect themselves against initiation
through the purchase OF tangible
goods and property. Yet, like mer-
chandizing groups. they must have
an inventory with which to do bust
ness. Therefore, inasmuch as they
deal in dollars, they must have a
large store Of dollars. on hand.
Dollars to be Plentiful
Forward-looking bankers, there
fore, will gradually depend less on
normal investment income and edu-
cate the depositors to heavier SER
vice charges. These will be per-
mitted by the government, even
looked upon with favor. Unless
Washington wishes to take over
the actual operation OF the banks,
they must make 1t possible for
banks to have sufficient income
from sources other than through
normal investments.
AS mortgages are paid Of in
cheap dollars income from this
source will also decline. But dol
lars will be exceedingly plentiful.
Money in circulation per capita to-
udy 10 Tie hl6h III luc AlbIOtg VI
our country. 1t will continue to
rise. For every government bond
sold our credit resources are null
tiplied six or seven times. l fore
cast that dollars will be far more
plentiful than certain commodities.
What About Bank Stocks
What l have outlined is far from
an ideal domestic banking econo-
my. 1t is no real way for banks
to function, but it is the only way
they can survive. But l would not
dump my bank stocks. They may
be as good as anything else to hold.
In some ways perhaps little bet
ter in the case OF the larger banks.
At least their real estate consti-
tutes real property. But would
not be surprised to see many bank
ing quarters turned into funeral
parlors!

New York. June 25-Infiation Is
witnessed by rising prices and an
increased shortage of consumers
goods. We have been in an infla-
tionary period for some time. Signs
point to further initiation. Infla-
-tton will affect all types of BUSH
ness and all individuals in varying
degrees. In thinking, however. of
one business with which nearly
all of Us are connected, l have felt
that some explanation of what in
flation might mean to the banks
would be of interest to all. Hence,
today l will hit some of the high
spots in the banking picture.
Banks Deal In Dollars
am more concerned with the
smaller banks than ! am with the
larger financial institutions of our
great cities. Our large economical
institutions will benefit from any
increase In money rates although
these may be some time In rising.
or course, the entire banking
business has changed vastly since
/ was young man. Today there
is little glory or profit in being a
bank director or even in being a
stakeholder.
Banks have no inventory, buy no
raw materials and manufacture no
finished products. They have
nothing to sell except service and
most important OF all, they deal
solely in dollars. Hence, theo-retic-
ally, II makes no difference to the
bank what the dollar is worth. It
rs worth SO cents today; but II 1t
goes down to 20 cents the banks
would still be open, would function
as usual, continue to receive dol
lar deposits and pay out dollars.
Depositors Are Safe
AS all Federal Reserve Member
Banks and most other banks are
also members of the Federal De-
post Insurance Corporation, de-
posts up to $4,000 have, for some
time, been insured by our govern
ment. Depositors are thus we'll
protected and bank failures for
years have been at minimum. I
look for no increase In bank faA-
ures. However, some banks may
consolidate. or liquidate and go out
OF business In some instances
this would be a sensible thing for
them to do. The larger a bank
is the more valuable its stock
should be.
Bank customers will continue 10
receive much the same type of SER
vice as they have always had from
their banks, but they must expect
TO pay more and more for it. Banks
will be obliged to meet increased
living and operating expenses oc-
oasioned by initiation just as manu-
facturers and other business houses
will be. They are faced with de-
clining mortgage income; their re-

Uncle Ruy's Corner

Here is letter with a question
which may interest other readers:
Dear Uncle Ray:
IT have read articles In your
column pertaining TO deep-sea fish
and was wondering If you could
answer the following question for
me, as many Of my fellow workers
and myself have debated 1t with
about an equal number on both
sides. rs there any place in any
ocean where a sunken battleship,
completely filled with water, will not
sink to the bottom?' We would
appreciate it very much II you would
answer this in detail.
'HEUMAN HAMPEL."
The answer to Mr.. Hampel's
question Is no" When battleship
Is filled with water it sinks to the
bottom of any ocean. Even IL it
were in the Dead Sea 1t would 20 to
the bottom since such a vessel Is
made largely of steel and is very
heavy.
When I say "even In the Dead
Sea" I am thinking of the fact that
the water in that sea is extremely
heavy. gallon for gallon. The extra
weight is due to the salt 1t contains.
Many things which will sink in
common sea water will float on the
Dead Sea, but iron will sink there,
The same statement may be made
of Great Salt Lake in Utah. That
small inland sea has such heavy
water that human being will not
sink in it. I found that out for
myself when I took a swim in it.
The only way could figure out to
sink to the bottom Gin places where
it was over my head was to hold
heavy weight, such as large iron
bar, in my hands.
If 1t is easier to keep afioat in
calm ocean water than in fresh
water, it is quite possible for a
person to sink below the surface.
That happens every now and then.
Sailors go down into what they call
"Davy Jones' locker" In other
words, they are drowned.
Some persons have spoken of "the
great pressure" far under the sur
face of the ocean. They have sup
posed that this pressure might keep
a battleship from sinking clear to
the bottom.
1t Is true that there is great pres
sure far down under the waters
surface. The farther down you 20
the stronger the pressure.
The pressure, however, is present
because of the weight of the water.
At depth of mile there is pres
sure from the mile of water above.
Let us suppose that an ironclad
vessel of war, we'll filled with water,
sank where the ocean Is two miles
deep. When this vessel reached
the depth of mile, what reason
would there be for it to stop sink
Ing? None at all. 1t would keep on
going down until it reached the
bottom.

come away feeling stronger for the
contact and ready to take up again
the burdens of the day.
The straight, clean trunk of the
red pine is pleasing and the reddish
brown bark gives it such a sturdy
dependable expression. 1t is a IA
miliar feature of the forest stands
in the Northeast from Southern
Canada throughout the Northern
States from Maine to Minnesota
and south as far as Pennsylvania
There are scattered stands also In
West Virginia.
The red pine reaches its finest
development on the sandy plains in
the Great Lakes region. 1t also
f1ourishes on dry, graveIy ridges in
some of the more Eastern States.
This pine reaches a height OF
from go to 80 feet, though some
have been known to climb as high
as 140 feet. It is a vigorous tree ur
to the age of 200. BY the time il
has reached its Booth birthday il
shows its age. While it is quite
youthful, say go to 10 years old, ii
will grow about IL inches annually
Then it takes things easy.
With neighbors some distance
apart, the red pine has lovely
symmetrical conical crown and the
Whorled branches extend at right
angles from the trunk. But in a
crowded forest these branches are
pruned away by friction and the
trunk may be straight column for
o-thlrds Of its entire length.
The staminate and pistiuate flow
ers are found on the same tree. The
blooming time is from May until
June. The female blossoms are
short-stemmed and scarlet. The
male ones, dark purple and in clus-
ters.
1t requires two seasons for the
cones to develop into the pale chest
nut brown fruit of 2 inches long
Each cone scale is slightly thickened
and free from spine or bristle. The
winged seed children escape in the
autumn; their shelter, with its
lifted scales, may remain on the
tree through the winter.
The wood of the red pine has
considerable commercial Importance
1t is used for ship masts and shir
flooring and today is riding the high
seas. 1t is also used for boxes, crates
and general construction work. Piles
door and window frames also use
up millions of board feet.
The rich color, attractive form,
