(New York Times) The continuous and rapid increase of sa.vmgs‘ bank deposits this ar has been a source of per- plexity and conjecture—mainly because a period of | widespread unemployment ,would appear to lead to large reductions in such accounts. Instead, figures| recently published have shown an exceptionally large gain since the beginning of this year, deposits lately exceeding withdrawals in New York State m-! stitutions by $20,000,000 to $40,000,000 a month. The course of savings deposits has by no means followed any uniform rule in previous years of de- pression. Tables in the official ‘“statistical Ab- stract” show that while the country's total of sav- ings bank deposits decreased $16,217,000 in 1908 and $30,067,000 in 1894, and while they dropped $76,131, 000 The unanimity of the approval by the country in 1877, the year of most severe depression after the! as a statue of Jefferson Davis was set up in Statu- p: ary Hall, in the rotunda of the National Capitol at Washington, is another convincing proof that we no longer have in this country a North and South as those terms were understood a generation or so ago. There was some protest, fortunately very feeble, when Virginia unveiled a statue of Robert E, Lee along side of Washington's in that hall of the immortals in 1908 But the applause that greeted the appearance of Jeff Davis there and the lack of a single protest as far as known any where in the country proves beyond dispute that all Americans are ready to acknowledge whole heartedly as Amer- ica’s the great men on both sides of the War be- tween the States. The New York Tribune was probably the leading abolition newspaper in the United States when we had slavery, and that paper is still in hands that have blood ties with Horace Greeley’s closest asso- ciates. Here is what it, now New York Herald Tribune, said about the installation of the Jeff Davis statue in Statuary Hall, sometimes called the Hall of Fame, in which each State is permitted to place the statues of two of its sons: The whole nation applauds as the bronze statue of Jefferson Davis is set up in the National Cepitol. Not a voice was raised in protest; the gulf which was still visible when Virginia sent Robert E. Lee's statue to Washington in 1908 has closed at last. North and South are truly ‘one. The President of the Confederacy like Lincoln, was born in a Kentucky log cabin. He had the same tall, gaunt silhouette, and, too, he had the courage of his principles. He stood like a rock for what he believed right. Slavery was a part of his moral code. He did not see its evils and hope to reform it; he regarded it as good, as a part of the divine order. On his own plantation he inaugurated a curious system by which slaves were tried by their fellows in their own courts, for petty offenses; but this limit- ed: measure of democracy did not alter his faith that slavery itself was eternal. Like Andrew Jackson, another hot-tempered fron- tiersman, he was a stern fighter for Right as he saw it, with no hesitant ability to see the other man's side of the case. Davis may have been responsible in part for the final military disasters of the Confed- eracy, but he must be given part of the credit, too, for the struggle which the South waged for more than four years against the power of the North. Jeff Davis held his people to- gether. No other man was seriously con- sidered for the Presidency of the South, and as Senator Harrison says, Jeff Davis “is today as much the idol of his people as he was their leader through the tragic days of his eventful career” The South loves a man who never gives in; and Jeff Davis died convinced and preaching that the South had been in the right in the war between the States. PHONES 83 OR 85 1look on the anic of 1873, they increased $98,000,000 in 1914 and $410,000,000 in 1921, Possibly the present large increase is due to Lnu action of small investors who have been frightened | out of the usual investment market and have put their money into the savings banks, temporarily or otherwise, as a haven of safety. If that is so, it would provide a striking and interesting contrast with 1929, when the American Bankers Association’s saving bank committee reported that savings de- posits of all kinds had decreased $195,000,000 in the twelve months ending with June, 1929. The report drew the conclusion that “the most important factor in draining away savings deposits and decreasing the number of depositors has been the lure of profits | to be made in stocks” It added the remark that‘, if this experiment were to prove unfortunate, “then | another year will doubtless witness an increase in savings deposits as well as in savings depositors.” The facts fit the prophecy.
