i i 4 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, OCT. 31, 1931. AMERICAN BANKING CONDITIONS THOROUGHLY SOUND. The reaction from the psychology of heightened optimism created by the broad program of econ- omic relief initiated by the Administration is now under way. The mere lapse of a few days without further stimulus from Washington has been suf- | ficient to ren:w the absurd fear that assumed such ugy proportions a week or two ago. But there is no question that the banking situa- tian has been immeasurably strengthened by the new National Credit Corporation idea. Worthy banks justifying rescue may well be saved and in any event people should now have faith in the stability of a banking system well supported and susceptible of being rendered increasingly liquid. The propaganda in France concerning the safe- ty of the dollar has died down. French financial editors are now pointing out specifically the cer- tain unlikelihood of inflation and the great strength of the reserve system. Regardless of European reactions, only the American people by senseless hoarding could damage their own banking system. Of the business dev:lopments the most encour- aging is the slight strength of the commodity markets, though it is too early to attempt to ap- praise the recent steadiness. The time of year is against important business recovery and busi- ness naturally will continue to function on con- servative lines. But quiet business has little con- cern with the strength of the banking situation | lover which so much unreasoning fear is being| displayed. B | HALLOWE’EN. | As w2 understand the Hoover-Laval cure for world depression, cur European allies of 1917-18 are to forgive Germany her debts to them as we for- give them their debts to us. In which event nobody pays anybody else anything except the American taxpayer who foots the entire bill. It only remains | for us to repay to Europe the sums already paid this country with interest added, in order to make | the scheme absolut:ly perfect. Daily Alaska Empire JOEN W.

Hallowe'en recurs tonight. Its onservance as a Christian anniversary is almost forgotten in its celebration by young ‘olks as a time for outdoor pranks that imagination likes to ascribe to strange, mysterious “oencics id for indoor games and pastimes thut funcy delights to invest with the cccult attribute of ceiermining future events. The religious reason w!v this evening is hal- lowed, or holy, is because ““‘3"0“;‘ °‘;~]‘m‘3"‘°‘“““\ “What the Well Dressed Turkey for Thanks- e 'uinls, (pardowlarly; those WAERAYe RN 4 giving and Christmas will wear,” is the subject dividual feast days or wno personally are unknown of a more or less learned treatise by specialists of the Federal Department of Agriculture.
