Eaton Urges Bankers

Americas banking syste m

Of Cyrus Eaton, the industrialist
who is chairman of the board of
the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway.
In a statement today MIR
Eaton said this is Capitalism S

the problem calls for the best
thinking of statesmen, bankers,
economists and business men.
Citing the Nations unprece-
dented growth, Mrs. Eaton de-
clared that barring war, the
conceivable deterrent to steady
continuation of our brilliant eco
nomic progress could be insuffi-
cient credit.
Unfortunately, our marvel

notable exceptions operating in

compass. we have never been and
still are not adequately prepared
to meet all of our own domestic
requirements in boom times, nor
to withstand the shocks of A.
nancial debacles." he said.
IF we are now to assume the
role of banker to the world, as
well as meet the increasing credit
requirements of our growing VOL
urne Of business at home, these
prosperous times provide the
logical moment to revitalize our
banking system. A capitalistic
nation Of the size and resources
of the United States ought to
have at least a dozen privately
owned and privately managed
banks capable of loaning as
much as 500 million to a single
borrower. Legally to command
such borrowing power, these
banks would have to have capi-
tai and surplus totaling at least
81 billion each.
Headquarters of these banks
should be well distributed geo.
graphically" Mr.. Eaton said.
He pointed out that at the end
of 1855, the Nations IL largest
banks on the basis of capital
funds ranged from capital and
surplus totaling $500 million
down to $3.50 million. Thus. he
said, $50 million was the maxi
mum legal loan limit Of Ameri-

change the situation, amend

Nevertheless, as I sit in my
little Office near an all but de-

feeling of Self-pity because I'm

my mind insists on wandering to
some new developments in our
land. For instance.
Never in all history have SO
many Americans taken of for
Christmas-New Year vacations
as this year.
And never in all these years
of prosperity since World War II
have. so many signed up for
winter holidays running into so
many millions Of dollars as dur

Tourist Statistics Cited
The statistics on tourists are
striking.
It's estimated that the number
of Americans who locked their
doors at Christmastime and
went away to holiday spots
dwarfed every previous record.
ran into the millions.
The fact that many business
firms gave their employees four
day holidays at Christmas was
a great stimulant, of course.
Actually. this past week was
just about ''lost" in many firms.
What work was done between
Wednesday and Friday didn't
amount to much.
And the trend toward "up-
grading" of spending has def
initely hit the vacation business.
The short Christmas-New Year
cruise on the luxury liners of
our own country, Britain.
France, Italy, various South
American countries has hit a
new high in popularity. No
longer is the winter cruise the
privilege of the very wealthy:
