pGeorge'H. Earle, Jr., Defends Position Taken by State
Bank Convention, Over Which He Held Sway.
Gossip of the Street
I&
s .
fPHERE was more caution during esterda' qtock trading than on
"Thursday, but there was no war news which would occasion any
Change in sentiment. Indeed, each hour brought more cheering news than
the previous one, and there iin more pronounced feeling of optimism
pervading the financial district than on an dav for a long time.
Brokers do not look for any change in the market conditions. Of course,
they Acknowledge that sudden changes In sentiment are to he expected
In a war market and higher prices are expected for the active list. There
was a time before the closing vesterday when some brokers thought
we were entering a "victory" market, but the more cautious said It was
Always better to be prepared for a setback.
tf There were a number of lmpoitant news. Items jesterdav which had
more or less effect nn some stocks and other securities Outside the
regular war news there was the agreement of the United States Oo em
inent to loan $60,000,000 to China, with Oreat Britain, France and .Inpan
participating. There was the report that the operating income of ISO
of the largest rallioad lines In the United States In May showed a net
decrease of $14,600,000 from Mar. 1917, etc.
Earle Defines. Field of Slate'Batik Activity
There Is still a good deal of discussion going on In flnnnclil circles
In this city, over the proceedings of the convention held early this week
to St. Louis, Mo , by the United States Council of State Banking Associa
tions, and which was presided oer by George H. Earle, Jr., president of
the Real Estate Trust Company.
It had been said In some quarters that the organization of this asso
ciation was. with a view of disrupting the American Bankers' Association
and that its alms were not favorable to the movement having in lew
the bringing of the State banks and trust companies Into the I'ederal
lUserve 'system. Before making a statement on the subject,
Mr. Earle explained that the State banks were called Into existence to
meet local conditions and to cater to these conditions. For example, he
aid, in certain locations they specialize their banking facilities to meet
coal mining or oil or natural gas production, etc. leaving the broader
neld to be covered by the national banking institutions, and that it was
therefore impossible for one conglomerate body composed of both State
and national bank representatives to speak for both.
His statement follows:
"There is a great deal of nonsense being given out as to the national
CC-uncll of State banking Institutions. The situation Is exceedingly simple
These Slate Institutions, being chartered In each State to meet the con
dition and needs of such States Individually, have naturally ver satis
factorily met local wants, Just as the national banks have splendidly
met the broad national situation If I am correctly informed, the State
bodies have, because of their local applicability, become far the larger
body. The two, however, following our American system, have amplv
met the whole situation and in the most friendly and helpful spirit.
"A large part of the funds of the national banks being deposits from
State banks, any one, therefore, who suggests antagonisms is a friend to
neither. As to the Federal Reserve svstem, every one with nn sense
knows what splendid, even imperative, work it is doing. All that is neces
tary is to read the resolutions of the convention to get clear light on this
subject. The State banks, however, being the larger body, felt that as
there might be matters to discuss and adjust Involving conflicting Inter
ests it would be better In such Instances to have a council of their own
to advise and negotiate on such matters.
"I have heard of none that Intends at all to withdraw from the
i American Bankers' Association, as It has its value In the general bioad
field Take as an Instance the question of joining the Federal Reserve
system No one was authorized to speak for the State banks, to advise
them even, and consequently the great majority have just drifted Per
sonally I feel that the representatives of all Interests can canvass this
matter and properly look into the difficulties with a perfectly sound and
satisfactory result. Of course, In the Interim no harm Is being done, as
the State banks and trust companies are doing their full and patriotic
hare and at least as unselfishly as any system In the countrj.
"If people would only take the trouble to read the resolutions ex
pressing the convention's purposes and principles, they would find how
foolish it is to engage in guessing at what is so easily ascertainable.
Speaking for myself, I think an applicaton of American principles of
democracy IS all that is necessary; free discussion and the fullest co
operation after it."
Expect Several Early Issues of, Short-Term Notes
Investment houses report fairly good business In short term notes
A well known banker said yesterday he looks for a number of Issues of
short-term notes In the near future by firms which are executing large
Government contracts, who will And It necessary to raise money to en
large their plants, purchase additional apparatus and finance their war
orders. The large meat-packing concerns were referred to by him as
some of those needing financial assistance, and as proof of his statement
he referred to the great quantities of meat and meat products that have
been shipped to Europe by the United States during the last ear.

WHEN we got out nt Springfield sta
tion S-uurday. Francis Oraham
said tn me, "Now I shall he buy for
about two hours What are vou going to
do with vourscin'
Oh, I think I'll drop Into a movls for
a couple of hours "
' Whal for? '
Oh, Just to kill time!"
Me caught me by the elbow and said,
' What has poor Father Time done to
jour
"none to me? What du vou mean7
'Win, the rlcar old gentleman has
neer clone vou any harm hss he? He's
done ou nothing but good, for every
hour of the dnj ho gives jnu an oppor
tunlt to pr gress In some wnv or other "
I lan t we an opportimltv here Jusl
for a couple of hours " 1 replied
'I suppose jou have heard the time
worn saving, There Is a tide In the af
fnlrs of men which. If taken at the flood,
carries us on to fuclcs ' 1 don't know If
1 have the nuils Just right, but that Is
the gist of It.
' The man w ho w rote that uncontlously
flam-flammed the world There Is no one
minute when a nnii has to seize his op
portunity and Immediately achieve a big
success Time Is more klndlv than that
nvery hour of the diy time sends op
portunltj knocking on jour door,
'The trouble Is that we full to see op
portunity In little things and Instead of
benefiting by Father Time's klndlv of
fices, we go after him with the shotgun
of laziness and kill Time Just as jou
thought of doing a moment ago "
'.Sa, vou talk like a copvbook," 1
said 'Well, w hat would vou reckon I
could do here for a couple of hours get
a Job selling or something?"
'The worst of vou voung fellows,"
grinned Oraham, 'Is that ou are m all
fired sure of j ourselves that jou think It
smart to Ignore good advice If It happens
to be old
"If J were In jour position as sales
man and wanted to use two hours to, ad
vantage I would go Into department
stores nnd observe methods rf selling t
would drop Into the smaller speclaltj
stores and buj some little odd trifle Just
to see how the snlesman handles him
self and while In that store I should try
to watch how other silesmcli wait pn
their cutcmers "
Gee, ' I exclaimed "I never thought
of that' It listens lll.e more fun than
the movies Me for It' What time will
sou be back 7 '
"There Is a train for Farmdalo at
1 18"
' How did vou know " '
'I looked It up Suppce I meet vou
here nt 12:10 Then we can have a light
luncheon before the train starts "
Funny thing, vnu know ; I never
thought of that way of using spare time
nd jet, when jou come tn think of It,
Its piettj good advice Isn't If
As I was short of collars, I decided to
buv two at a time, see three different
stores nnd find out their different meth
ods of selling TiIh Is what happened:,
vvnen i went lino inn nrsi store I said
I wanted two collars, and the salesman
said. 'Mze?'
' Fourteen and a half," I replied
Stjle?'
"I don't know ; something like the one
I've got on "
The man walked a jard or two dowt
the store and heckoned with his finger
I trotted meeklv after him He stopped
In front of a glass case and pointed with
his finger to about fifydlfferent stvles
and snld, 'Something like this?'
Well, Is that lite the one I've got
on?"
You ought to know the kind of collar
jou are wearing better than I "
Well, let me look at It "
"I am showing It to Ji," he replied
without stirring ,
1 mean 1 want to see one out of the
case,
Without a word he walked further
away still, and again beckoned to me
Well, once again I 'got hei on too low"
and ambled to where he was then stand
ing He took one collar out of the box
and placed It on the counter without a
word
"That's about like what I've got. on,
Isn't It"
"Yov "
"Well, give me two "
Without answ'erlng he w rapped the two
up and passed them over and said.
' Thirty rtnts "
'I thojight they w,ere two for twenty
flvo cents "
His onlv repjy was, ' Thlrtj cents "
I gave him a half dollar He slipped
it into the cash carrier and then walked
up to another clerk and hepan to talk
with him. The change came back i-ooner
than he did, but he walked slowlj hark
still talking to the fellow clerk He
took the change out of the carrier,
planked It down on the counter and left
me.
I don't know as I would have noticed
all these things If Francis hadnt put me
up to them Aa I left the store I thought.
"Well, that's some bright, salesman nit!
That guy seems to think his head Is just
something to wear a hat on Somebody
ought to tell him that he's dead from the
neck up "
When I compared that sale to the
other two 1 don't wondef the store looked
on the blink.

A wholesale drug company expects as
much discount as It can get,. The com
mon discount Is 16.5-5, and In cases such
as youiB yet another 5 per cent, You
may wonder why the wholesaler does not
get 25 per cent discount. The discounts
are divided because discount varies ac
cording to the amount of goods sold and
also a firm can make up a one-priced
catalogue and merely! alter the discounts
by a sheet Issued from time to time.
The wholesaler usually gives the re
tailer 1H per cent for cash the tenth ot
the month following delivery. 'The re
taller requires at least JJ 1-11 per cent on
the selling price (which is. of course, 80
per cent on cost),
