tive banks gained s50589 SOB in the
first six months of this year, it was
learned today following condition
call issued by the controller of the

The call. dated June 30, the end
of the Governments fiscal year,

aggregate deposits of 1854 1868, SIT 80,
in comparison with $604 28O, ,O14.79
on December 81, 1912, the date of the
last call. The sharp gain estab-
fishes another new all-time high
mark.
Bankers pointed out today that
the increase was partly due to the
very heavy War Loan deposits held
by the banks in connection with the
last War savings bond campaign.
When the banks buy bonds for their
own accounts or sell them to the
public the funds are placed in a
separate bond account. The Treas

NEW YORK, July 2.-Civilian
supplies of certain textile products,
now restricted because Of huge re-
quirements of the armed forces, may
become more plentiful later this
year. on
This was suggested yesterday in
review Of the Army's textile needs
written by Maj. Gen. Edmund B.
Gregory, Quartermasters Corps. for
Linens e. Domestics," business
magazine. a.
Despite shortages in many mate
rials," Gen. Gregory wrote, mill
tary demands on some items may
be expected to be somewhat lighter
for the remainder of the year. Quar-
termaster procurements on some
items have been completed for this
year and the balance of the output
of the mills at present may be di-
rected into civilian channels" r
Gen. Gregory said that no sub
stantial procurements of sheets and
pillowcases were contemplated IN
1943 las the situation now stands. ".c
He added that indications pointed
to continuing procurements Of
blankets at approximately the cur
rent rate but it was not anticipated
there would be any change in
specifications or that heavier pro-
curements would be made.
Gen. Gregory pointed out that
the clothing and equipment Of sol-
diers in battle are subjected to wear
and tear which calls for frequent
replacements.
Reminding that as yet our
Army's engagements with the
enemy have been few and that the
vast expenditure of materials and
equipment needed for all-out war
fare is still in the future" he said:
