Depositors Guaranty Fund Law ; “Whatever may be our individual ‘opinions touching the advisability of ‘the guaranty fund law there is little or no division of opinion that upon States is about one bank to each 4,- 000 people.

A variety uf such enterprises’ too great to enumerate thus became a source of dang to the bank: It was not legitimate banking business but was the legitimate fruit of excessive com- petition. Diminishing Profits The legitimate profits of the or- Closings in Six Years ~ In presenting the history of the de- flation period, Mr. Bangs showed that, during the six years ending April 1, 1926, 237 state banks of North Dakota closed, and actually went into the hands of the state receiver. The ledger balances of these banks ap. and discounts weer i was 123 per cent of the total deposits , 989,724 was pladged to secure bills | ‘ payable. . “The obvious cause of the bank fail- ures was the frozen assets consisting | of uncollectable loans and discounts. and the large amount tied up in bank- ing houses, furniture and fixtures and other real estate. But these are merely the outward manifestations and the question inter ing to us is, what were the causes which produced the accumulation of these frozen as- sets in the banks during this period, said Mr. Bangs. “I do not think conduct or dis- honesty plays any~material part in bringing about the catastrophe. Such {eases were rare although there were many laws subsequently violated in perhaps mistaken attempts to protect the depositors by keeping the banks from closin; “Before speaking of the deflation in values which began during the summer of 1920 and within the next three years reduced these values at least 50 per cent, it would ‘be wise to examine the ‘conditions then existing from entire! dependent causes years. its effect was detrimentally manifest in added expense, the bring- ing in of unstable deposits from out- side of the state, and the impairment of the morale of the depositors. When to bank failures was added the failure of a patent nostrum so high- ly recommended as the guaranty fund law, disquietude became panic. Mr. Bangs then sketched the effect on Nofth Dakota of the drop in wheat el which began in the summer of “Farmers and business men had borrowed from the banks upon the strength of the earlier prices, and as the price deelined the security evaporated and the borrowers were unable te pay the bank. They re- quired the money they had on deposit to pay operating expenses. The re- sult was that loans and discounts were frozen, while the deposits de- parted,” he said, and“ poin’ the condition was aggra reduction of land values which fol- lowed the collapse of wheat prices, Remedial Measures Turning to reme Beegs: said in part: e success of banking tions depends largely on the intelli- gence and ability of those intrusted with their management. There is suggested then for consideration and discussion the proposal that some sort of an examination and licensing law be evolved, modeled to some ex- tent at least upon the laws applicable tho professions. With the thought that conditions may be made more favorable the fol- 1 ‘on, though doubtless severe, would not have been so disastrous.

ECONOMY IS |WATCHWORD OF THE PRESIDENT Executive Declines, However, to Raise Hopes of Fur- ther Tax Relief | Washington, June 23.—(#)—“A , treasury surplus of $390,000,000 for the fiscal year, ending June 30,” was predicted by President Coolidge but he withheld promise of early tax reduction pending a test of program ‘constructive economy’ which he said should net surpluses also for! the next two years. Addressing the semi-annual budget M meeting, Mr. Coolidge estimated that the next’ fiscal year, beginning July {1, should be closed with # surplus of $185,000,000 on the basis of present estimates of receipts and expendi- !tures, and the following year with a margin of $20,000,000, “It would be unfortunate to raise vi ;tinued, “until we are sure that the \state ‘of our fin ies it ness was quick to anti tax reduction.

Local Government Expensive The president again reproached the ate and local governments for their increasd expenses, warning it was fraught with grave consequences. In 1921, he , the cost of all govern- ment in this country was $9,500,- 000,000, of which federal expenditure constituted almost 60 per cent. In 1925 the cost of all government had increased to. $11,600,000,000 of which only 27 per cent was represented by federal expenditurs hile expenditures of the federal government probably will reach §3,- 600,000,000 for the next fiscal year, Coolidge expressed a hope the fol- ing year could concluded at a cost of $3,200,000,000 exclusive of the postal service and tax refunds. Two Per Cent Reduction In Personnel Demanded Washington, Ji 23.—()—A_re- duction of at.least two per cent in the number of federal employes next year was demanded by Director Lord of the Budget, with the approval of Pi lent Coolidge, in an address to department heads at the semi-annual budget meetin, i Such a slash in the federal person- nel would mean a saving of $20,000,- 000 next year, Mr. Lord said, and constitutes the chief departmental in the president’s policy of “constructive economy.” The task can be accomplished, the budget chief explained, without the discharge of an employe but by the expedient ‘of not fi vi service total about the entire personnel each year. On April 30 this year there were 246,419 executive civil service em- loyes, exclusive of the postal people, Ur Lord said, a reduction of 16,290 during President Coolidge’s admini- stration as compared to 656,672 em- loyes on the pay rolls on Armistice vy, November 11, 1918, The President's program of expen- ditures for the next two fiscal years, the director said, meant there mi the clo: scrutiny of every expenditure. 7 "We must make each, dollar swea he said. my Tom Mix in “My Own Pal,” his newest, latest ‘and best feature de luxe, at the Capitol theatre, Friday and Saturday.
