Wall Street has ne vast resources, for the Strect is be- ginning to talk in terms of billions, With brokers' loans approaching a $5,000,000,000 total, $12,000,000,000 bond issues listed in the market and daily sales of stocks and bonds in the organized markets alone ap. proximating $425,000,000, millions have lost somewhat in signiticance. It is only in recent years that such immense funds have been ac- cumulated. The largest of the banks, the National City, capits ized at $90,000,000, with dep its above $1,275,000,000, had a capital of only $1.000,000 in 1901, Chase National, capitalized at $60,000,000, and Guaranty Trust, with capstal of 40,000,000, whose deposits approx- imate $750,000,000 each, have shown |erable of a figure down in San almost as remarkable growth. d of their| 11 publicanism and that's why he was ' ghosen 10 make the Hoover speceh at the con John McNab, like Hoover, be- longs to the west's pioncer tradi- tion.

Here McNab began his typically American career. He w educated in the public schools. , At 18 he was corral hoss and t country’s champion sheep dipper. He could dip 1000 sheep a day. But {he had other ambitions. In 1867 his father's main lug- gage across the Panama isthm had been a well-stocked library, and John was avidly consuming it. He Accided to become a lawyer.

Many of the banks have subsidi- aries doing a lucrative business in underwriting and distributing securities, the capital of the sub- sidiary often comparing favorably with that of tle purent bank.

About half this sum is kept on hand in the form of gold and gold eegtificates in vaults of the bank of the United States Sub- Treasury Deapite the growth in individual resources of these institutions, thelr number s increasing in the area surrounding the Stock Ix- change. Their loans to any on Lorrower are limited by law to 10 per cent of their available re- | sources and as the horrowers have increased as rapidly as the horrow- irgs, there appears to be plenty of business for all and for the addi- tional institutions to come. This | ia true_ especially since the legal list of ‘investments for banks has | been extended and banks have be- | come partners in industries as wall as in their own parlicular field, The potentiality of such a sum s the $8,000,000,000 represented by deposits in these few banks rather taxes comprehension. Reduced to cash, the deposits would pay off the total national debt of every Central and South American republic and leave nearly enough to perform the same service Denmark, sthon Finland, “Read Blackstone 12 times” wrote Gavin. “The only other book yow'll need is Webster's U abridged.” John took the advies literally.
